Chapter 46.1
Li Wan looked puzzled and stood up to knock on the door.
“Xixi, what are you guys making noise about inside?”
The door opened, and Gu Muxi smiled, “Nothing much, I’m just applying medicine for Yi Feng. This guy can’t stand a bit of pain.”
“Oh, I see.”
“The eggs are boiled, go get a cloth for little Feng to warm compress.”
“Be gentle, okay? Don’t hurt little Feng,” Li Wan instructed.
Gu Muxi: “Uh…”
“Okay, mom, I got it!”
Gu Muxi had three black lines on her forehead, why did her mom always side with stinky Yi Feng!
She ran to the kitchen, scooped up the boiled eggs, wrapped them in a rag, and then took them to Yi Feng for a warm compress.
Yi Feng didn’t want her to warm compress him at all; it was torture.
She didn’t know how hot the egg was and almost scalded the skin off.
Yi Feng had no choice but to gently rub the egg himself.
Without saying, after applying the medicinal liquor and then adding the egg warm compress, it felt much better and was not so painful.
Yi Feng leaned back on the head of the bed, watching Gu Muxi trimming her nails at the desk. She was sitting with her legs crossed, her skirt moved up a bit, revealing a pair of smooth, white, and slender jade legs.
The elasticity… must be quite good, right?
“Hehe, Gu Muxi, can you help me trim my toenails later?”
“Why should I help you trim them? Just because your face is bigger?”
“I am big everywhere, just not my face. My hands are being warmed up right now, it’s inconvenient.”
Gu Muxi glanced at him, seeing his ankle swollen like that, her heart softened, “Okay, since you gave me my favorite birthday gift today and sprained your foot, I’ll trim it for you.”
Yi Feng was secretly pleased, Gu Muxi really was a tsundere with a soft heart.
“Thank you, start with the left foot, the left foot doesn’t hurt.” Yi Feng took her pillow, placed it behind him, and lay down comfortably, waiting for her to serve him.
Gu Muxi rolled her eyes at him speechlessly.
Stinky Yi Feng!
She sat by the bed, starting to trim Yi Feng’s toenails with a nail clipper.
“Yi Feng, you should remove the dead skin when you bathe, yikes, it’s too thick!” Gu Muxi said with a look of disgust.
“The skin is a protective layer, why remove it? It feels safe to have skin wrapped around.” Yi Feng smirked.
Gu Muxi was stunned, “Why do you speak in such a strange tone?”
“Where is it strange? It’s very normal.”
“I don’t want to deal with you, go rest after I finish trimming, you should go to sleep early if you sprained your foot.”
“Huh? Are you rushing me to leave so soon?”
“It’s already ten o’clock at night, if you don’t go back, do you still want to stay here and sleep?”
“Hehe, it’s not impossible.”
“Stinky Yi Feng, do you want me to bundle you up and throw you out?”
“Don’t be so impulsive, after all, I’m also half your master, teaching you how to fix computers and even how to cook noodles!”
Gu Muxi pursed her lips and hummed, “The noodles you cooked weren’t that good!”
“Then why did you eat so much? How is my noodle not tasty?” Yi Feng retorted.
“You, your noodles are too hard, they’re not thoroughly cooked!” Gu Muxi stubbornly said.
“Humph, you still have the nerve to say? It’s because you put too much water in your noodles! And you didn’t stir it, it all got mushy!”
Yi Feng chuckled lightly.
Gu Muxi pinched his thigh with her hand.
“Ow!”
“Gu Muxi, why did you pinch me!”
Gu Muxi lifted her chin, acting arrogantly, “That’s for talking about me, don’t mention the noodle incident last time again!”
Yi Feng grimaced, “Okay, okay, I won’t mention your embarrassing moment, so stop pinching me!” Gu Muxi showed her white teeth, “If you say one more word, I’ll cut off your toes!”
Yi Feng chuckled but obediently kept quiet; his toes were still in her hands, after all.
After a while, Gu Muxi quickly finished trimming Yi Feng’s toenails in a few strokes.
“Alright, Yi Feng, get lost back to sleep,” Gu Muxi put away the nail clippers and dusted off her hands.
“So soon?” Yi Feng was somewhat reluctant.
The feeling of Gu Muxi’s tender hands holding his toes was really nice.
Unfortunately, good times are always short-lived.
“So, what do you want? You’re really troublesome!” Gu Muxi changed her tone.
“Alright then, I, your prince, will go back now. Little Xixi, can you help me up?” Yi Feng looked at her with a “pitiful” gaze.
“Fine, fine, such a hassle!”
Gu Muxi pulled him up from the bed.
Yi Feng didn’t stand steady and fell onto her, hugging her tightly.
Embracing the warm and soft fragrance, he felt as if he had ascended to heaven.
A unique delicate fragrance hit his nose, refreshing and pleasant.
Gu Muxi smells so good!
“Stand steady, I can’t support you!” Gu Muxi’s cheeks reddened, she puffed her cheeks, pretending to be angry.
But being hugged by Yi Feng like this, her little heart inexplicably began to beat faster.
“Ah, ah, my mistake.” Yi Feng scratched his head and stood firmly again.
After putting on his shoes, with Gu Muxi’s support, he walked out of the room.
Only Gu Muxi’s parents were left in the living room outside.
“Little Feng, is your foot feeling better?” Li Wan asked with concern.
“After applying medicinal liquor and warm compressing, it’s much better, thank you, Auntie!” Yi Feng smiled.
“Then go back and rest well. Xixi, take good care of him, okay? Tomorrow morning, going to school, little Feng probably can’t ride a bike, so you take him for these few days,” Li Wan instructed.
Gu Muxi: “……”
Mom, you’re too good to stinky Yi Feng!
“Okay, okay, I know!”
Gu Muxi reluctantly agreed, continuing to support Yi Feng back.
When they reached Yi Feng’s house, Gu Muxi immediately let go, “Okay, you can walk the rest on your own, I’m going back to take a shower!”
Saying that, Gu Muxi turned around, bouncing back to her own house.
Yi Feng smiled, entered his house.
As soon as he got home, Meng Xiaoyun came out from the kitchen, puzzled, “Son, why are there two computers in your room?”
“Hey, I bought them cheap from a recycling company, these two are fixed, I’m giving one to Gu Muxi as a birthday present,” Yi Feng honestly confessed.
“Wow, son, you can fix computers? That’s impressive, I didn’t see that talent in you!” Meng Xiaoyun was pleasantly surprised.
“Hehe, just average,” Yi Feng scratched his head and laughed.
“Go take a bath, after that, I’ll help you apply some medicine on your foot, you’re so careless to have sprained it.”
“It’s good it’s not your hand, otherwise it would have affected your studies!” Meng Xiaoyun sternly said.
The college entrance exam is a major event in life aside from getting married and having children, a crucial moment that can change one’s life, like crossing a single-log bridge with thousands of troops. Successfully scoring well and attending a good university means not worrying about finding a job in the future.
