Chapter 70 Humans are born with the right to cry out in pain
There were nannies and housekeepers walking around downstairs, so they went upstairs to apply the medicine.
Inside the study on the third floor.
Feng Jiashu sat upright with his hands on his knees, looking calm, but his heart was pounding wildly.
After preparing the medicine and cotton balls, He Qiaoyun glanced at his wound and said, "It looks like it's healed a lot."
The two stitches that used to tear the skin have now been straightened, and the large bruise has also subsided considerably. I estimate the stitches will be removed in a couple of days.
She picked up a cotton ball, soaked it in iodine, and gently applied it to the wound. "Does it still hurt?"
Feng Jiashu sounded nonchalant, "It didn't hurt at all, just a minor injury."
He Qiaoyun chuckled inexplicably, "Even a shovel can't keep up your stubbornness."
Just two days ago, he couldn't even fit into any clothes.
Feng Jiashu laughed along, "A man shouldn't cry out in pain."
While applying the medicine, He Qiaoyun said, "Humans are made of flesh and blood, not Iron Man. When something hits you, it will hurt. It's not shameful to cry out in pain, because humans are born with the right to cry out in pain."
Feng Jiashu slightly raised his chin, his gaze fixed on her. At this moment, his usually calm heart was churning with turbulent emotions.
He Qiaoyun wasn't a seventeen or eighteen-year-old girl, so she could naturally read the undercurrent in his eyes, but she avoided it, turned her head, threw away the cotton ball, put down the tweezers, and picked up a new piece of gauze to apply it.
"done."
Feng Jiashu snapped out of his daze and said, "Thank you."
He Qiaoyun half-squatted down to pack her medicine box, saying, "You're welcome."
"I'll go downstairs now, goodnight," she said.
Feng Jiashu replied, "Good night."
The next day.
early morning.
He Qiaoyun had a rare, comfortable nap, only waking up when the seven o'clock sunlight shone through the window.
When I went downstairs in the morning, the nanny had already prepared breakfast.
"Madam, breakfast is ready. Would you like to eat now or wait for the master and young lady?" Li Ma blurted out, then quickly apologized, "I'm so sorry, I got used to it at my previous employer's house..."
He Qiaoyun gave a slight smile. "It's okay, you can just call me Qiaoyun from now on."
Li Ma agreed, "Okay, Sister Qiaoyun."
As they were talking, Feng Jiashu came downstairs and greeted her, "Good morning, what are your plans for today?"
He Qiaoyun sat down at the dining table and said, "I need to go back to the orchard. I estimate I'll be staying for two or three days."
Several fruit shops she partners have called to order fruit, so she needs to go back and arrange for people to harvest the longan and lychee trees, and she also needs to check on the grapes. All told, two or three days probably won't be enough...
Feng Jiashu asked, "You've been staying at the hospital with Tian Tian these past few days. Did that interfere with your orchard business?"
He Qiaoyun shook her head. "No, I was going to rest for a few days anyway."
After they finished breakfast, Tian Tian came downstairs with her hair all messy.
Aunt Wang followed behind, calling out, "Young Miss, you haven't combed your hair yet, and you haven't changed out of your pajamas."
Tian Tian refused her touch and ran over to He Qiaoyun instead.
Wang Ma looked helpless. "Sir, Madam, Miss refuses to comb my hair or change my clothes."
Upon hearing her address, He Qiaoyun quickly corrected her, "Not Madam, just call me Qiaoyun."
Wang Ma suddenly realized, smiled and tapped her head, "I'm so sorry, I'll change it right away."
Tian Tian looked up at He Qiaoyun with her beautiful big eyes, as if she had found a safe and reliable person.
Feng Jiashu said to her, "Tian Tian, you can't always bother Aunt He. Aunt He is your uncle's friend and is only staying at our house temporarily."
Tian Tian's eyes showed grievance, and her head was lowered as if she had done something wrong.
Seeing this, He Qiaoyun felt a pang of sympathy and took the comb from the nanny. "It's just combing your hair. Come on, Aunt He will comb your hair for you."
Tian Tian cautiously raised her head, glanced at Feng Jiashu, and after receiving Feng Jiashu's permission, followed He Qiaoyun upstairs.
He Qiaoyun styled her hair into a neat ponytail, then helped her put on some clothes. When she was about to go downstairs after changing, she said, "Tian Tian, Aunt He is going back to the orchard to work for a while. During this time, you have to be a good girl and listen to your uncle and the nannies."
Tian Tian stared at her blankly, without responding for a long time.
"Go have breakfast."
He Qiaoyun turned around and went back to her room, packed some odds and ends, and then went downstairs.
She said goodbye to Feng Jiashu and Tian Tian.
Feng Jiashu asked, "How are you going to get back?"
“I left my car at the small supermarket. I’ll take a taxi back to the supermarket to get it, and then go back to the orchard,” she said.
Feng Jiashu said, "I'm just about to leave for work, let me give you a ride."
He Qiaoyun glanced at the time; it was already eight in the morning. "I need to go to Yongquan Road. It's probably not on my way, so I don't want to make you late for work. I can take a taxi quickly. Also, is your injury healed?"
Without hesitation, Feng Jiashu replied, "I'm numb today, but I can drive. I drove yesterday too."
He Qiaoyun didn't refuse anymore, "Okay."
The two went out, and Tian Tian followed closely behind, her eyes filled with determination, as if she would chase after the car if she were left behind.
Aunt Wang followed anxiously behind, "Young Miss, you haven't finished your breakfast yet..."
He Qiaoyun and Feng Jiashu turned around and saw Tian Tian and Wang Ma chasing each other.
Tian Tian ran up to He Qiaoyun and looked at her expectantly.
He Qiaoyun asked, puzzled, "What's wrong?"
Tian Tian timidly tugged at the hem of her clothes.
Feng Jiashu bent down and coaxed gently, "Aunt He has things to do, she'll be back in a few days, you stay home obediently."
He Qiaoyun then said, "Tian Tian, Aunt He really has something to do. I'll come back to be with you as soon as I'm done, okay?"
Aunt Wang quickly chimed in, "Yes, yes, come on, let's go back and have breakfast."
After hesitating for a long time, Tian Tian finally let go of her hand, her eyes filled with reluctance.
The two of them got out of the house without incident.
Feng Jiashu dropped He Qiaoyun off at the entrance of a small supermarket on Yongquan Road. As he watched her get out of the car, he, like Tian Tian, showed reluctance to part with her.
He Qiaoyun closed the car door, smiled and waved to him, "Goodbye."
Feng Jiashu nodded gently, "Okay."
After watching the car leave, He Qiaoyun turned and went into the shop.
The two shop assistants who were craning their necks to look outside immediately turned their heads away.
As He Qiaoyun walked in, Xiao Ye asked with a gossipy look on her face, "Sister Qiaoyun, what a luxury car! Is it your boyfriend?"
He Qiaoyun laughed and clicked her tongue. "What boyfriend? He's just a friend who gave me a ride on his way."
Xiao Ye glanced at the time and asked, "Your friend doesn't go to work?"
He Qiaoyun said, "Of course I went to work."
Xiao Ye raised an eyebrow and analyzed, "It's already 8:45. Those companies outside all start work at 9:00 in the morning. The roads are so congested during rush hour. This whole area is residential. You have to go around in circles to get out. He's definitely going to be late. If he's going to give you a ride even though he's late, and he's not your boyfriend, then he must be interested in you."
Finally, she added, "But if he's the boss, then pretend I didn't say anything."
