Reborn as a Superpower Girl in the 80s

Chapter 115: Chapter 115: The Quail on the Back Chapter 115: Chapter 115: The Quail on the Back While he said that, in his heart he was actually thinking that this was made with Spatial Well Water added; it naturally had nourishing effects and absolutely could not cause a problem.

The casual notes had mentioned that Scald Healing Spirit and Scar Soothing Paste were items difficult to acquire even with a fortune.

Lu Yichen could tell that this young girl had her own plans; she was hoodwinking him.

He then seriously said, “You’ve just arrived in the village recently, you should know that people’s hearts are unpredictable. The Sun Family is not to be trifled with; try to interact less with them in the future. If you get entangled with them, it would be worse than the Zhao Family.”

After hearing this, Luo Qiao was somewhat puzzled and turned to ask what he meant. Unfortunately, she stepped on a not-so-big stone on the road and nearly fell, but thankfully her skills saved her from falling.

However, she twisted her foot, exclaiming ‘Aiya’ in pain.

Lu Yichen quickly steadied her and said, “You really are something, even with such a beautiful moonlight, you manage to hurt yourself just by walking.”

He helped her to sit down on a large stone by the road and asked, “Try twisting your ankle yourself and see if it’s alright.”

Luo Qiao tried and felt some pain, but it seemed to be minor, “It’s nothing, let’s hurry back.”

She thought about soaking her foot in well water from the space once they got back, and by morning it should be fine.

As she stood up ready to go, Lu Yichen said, “Don’t be too stubborn. There’s still a way to go; if it’s not serious now, you could make it worse by walking. I’ll carry you back.”

Luo Qiao replied, “We don’t have much of a walk left, it should be alright.”

Luo Qiao was embarrassed to let Lu Yichen carry her, especially since he was already injured. Wouldn’t that be taking advantage of him?

Seeing her like this, Lu Yichen, somewhat annoyed, said, “Stop dawdling and hurry up. Are you treating me like a disabled person, feeling sorry to let me carry you?”

Not wanting to hurt his pride, Luo Qiao climbed onto his back. She had been eating well recently and had gained quite a bit of weight, now almost reaching over eighty pounds.

Luo Qiao remained silent and didn’t speak any further, while Lu Yichen said, “Let this go for now, but don’t be so reckless in the future. Remember that.”

Luo Qiao gave a soft ‘hmm’ in acknowledgment, and then fell silent again.

Lu Yichen brought her all the way to the front gate of the courtyard before saying, “You go ahead and open the door; I’ll go fetch some medicine for you.”

Standing on one foot, Luo Qiao unlocked the gate, tested her foot, feeling some pain, but managed to walk forward a bit. Lu Yichen came back quickly and said, “I’ll draw some well water for you first. Soak your injured foot in it. Without ice, this is the best we can do now. As for the medicine, use it tomorrow depending on how things look.”

Before Luo Qiao could speak, Lu Yichen had already stuffed the medicine into her hand and helped her to sit on the wooden stump in the courtyard.

He fetched a bucket of water from the back, asked where the foot basin was, and brought the water over to her.

Then, as if recalling something, he said, “I should go now. Once you finish soaking your foot, you can clean up tomorrow. I’ll lock the courtyard door from the inside for you, so don’t go over that way later.”

Luo Qiao said, “Thank you.”

She watched as Lu Yichen secured the gate from inside and then agilely climbed over the courtyard wall, thinking how nimble he was despite his injury, and how impressive he must be when fully healed.

Back in his own courtyard, Lu Yichen also felt he had been somewhat reckless, shook his head, and went inside to continue sleeping, but tossing and turning, he couldn’t fall asleep.

Thinking back to carrying Luo Qiao home, her silence made him laugh to himself; in the end, she still had the innocence of a child.
