She only had eyes for Qu Xiujie.
Ji Ziming looked at Mao Nana and Qu Xiujie and his lips curled into a smile. He wanted to see if the two of them had any plans but was pulled to the other side by Pei Ge.
“Nana, quickly follow uncle in. I have high hopes for you guys.”
Pei Ge covered her mouth and whispered to her.
Mao Nana laughed out loud. It was just a fall but it made her the person who needed the most care in the house. She also became the person Qu Xiujie wanted to care about. He claimed that he wanted to take better care of her leg.
Actually, he was just trying to find a reason for showing his concern.
Her beautiful eyebrows, familiar and innocent eyes, voluptuous figure and long legs were eye catching. Mao Nana was the goddess in many men’s hearts yet she was willing to smile the happiest on Qu Xiujie’s back.
“A month? Then quickly bring Nana to her room to rest. I’ll go make some soup for her.”
Zhang Manhua did as she said. She thought that it would be best if she could brew Nana’s soup before dinner tonight. She would be able to sleep after drinking it.
As the saying goes, it takes a hundred days to heal an injured muscle or bone. Mao Nana, on the other hand, felt that Zhang Manhua had been kind to her for more than a hundred days.
When Qu Xiujie brought Mao Nana back to the room, she slowly sat on the bed and looked at Qu Xiujie who was squatting in front of her with twinkling eyes.
“Uncle, today you…”
Mao Nana was still brooding over what the auntie in the hospital had said but did not expect Qu Xiujie to not care about it.
“What are you trying to say?”
Qu Xiujie lowered his head and was half-kneeling on the floor as he patiently removed Mao Nana’s shoes. There was still some blood on the dressing where her knee was injured and it made one’s heart ache.
“Uncle, in your heart, am I…”
“Are you stupid? If I say that you are a seed, then must you really be a seed? The dragon fruit has fruit too, what if you are the fruit?”
Mao Nana looked aggrieved. It was all Qu Xiujie’s fault for using a dragon fruit as an analogy. She did not even want to see the skin of the dragon fruit. However, this did not mean that she could understand what Qu Xiujie meant.
“But you said that I’m a seed.”
“If I say that you’re an idiot, then are you really an idiot?”
Qu Xiujie smiled helplessly. He knew that this woman was not as smart as he thought but he did not expect her to understand his words so slowly. She did not even understand what he meant.
“Why were you so fierce to that old granny in the hospital? She’s definitely going to the hospital for treatment. Aren’t you afraid that she’ll come knocking if you’re so fierce to her?”
Mao Nana nodded slightly at Qu Xiujie. Time did not leave too many marks on his him. Instead, his resolute face had been attracting her attention from the start. No matter how long she looked at him or from any angle, she would not feel tired of him and even felt that it was normal.
Mao Nana always felt that Qu Xiujie was not simple no matter how she looked at him.
This man had left a deep mark in her heart.
“If she wants to look for me, then come. I’m not afraid of her. This capital belongs to Ji Ziming and he is my niece’s husband. How can she challenge him?”
Qu Xiujie lowered his head and the fringe on his forehead did not reveal his expression. Mao Nana, who was sitting by the bed, felt that Qu Xiujie was smiling. If she did not injure herself from the fall this time, she might not have known that she was in Qu Xiujie’s heart. The position she occupied was actually so important and it was impossible for her to know that she really wanted to leave or use this as an excuse to wait for Qu Xiujie to look for her.
Mao Nana’s eyes were full of smiles and her heart was as sweet as honey.
“Uncle, why don’t you take care of me for the rest of my life? I’m not picky; I eat very little. I can eat less.”
Mao Nana swung her other long leg and her fair and smooth skin swayed back and forth in front of Qu Xiujie. Her throat tightened and she coughed a few times as she tried her best to hold on to her leg.
“It’s not that easy for me to raise you. You must be prepared.”
Qu Xiujie looked up and met Mao Nana’s eyes. One was clear, one was resolute, one was gentle and one was cold.
“Then, what should I do to satisfy you?”
Mao Nana smiled and looked at Qu Xiujie more boldly.
Her legs, which had already taken off their shoes, were as white and smooth as milk. She placed them on Qu Xiujie’s arms and slowly moved them to his chin.
The stinging pain from the stubble made Mao Nana instinctively retract her leg but was grabbed by Qu Xiujie. The warmth from his hand traveled along Mao Nana’s leg and reached her face. Her blushing cheeks were like the red makeup of an ancient person, bright and shy.
“You have to keep going upward. Only then will I be satisfied. If you retract your leg now, how do you want me to support you?”
Qu Xiujie’s voice was filled with ridicule as he stared intently into Mao Nana’s eyes, refusing to let go. Mao Nana’s face turned red.
“Uncle, let go of my leg. It’ll be bad if Ge Ge or Sister Manhua comes in.”
Mao Nana was very shy and had never expected Qu Xiujie to grab her feet like this.
“You and Ge Ge are friends, but don’t you think it’s weird for you to call her mother ‘sister’?”
Qu Xiujie’s voice was cold as he looked at Mao Nana and frowned. “So you still want me to support you now?”
“Yes!”
Mao Nana acted as though she was certain of Qu Xiujie’s decision and was very serious. It was as though she had placed everything in this silent tug-of-war.
“Okay, then put your feet under my chin.”
Qu Xiujie laughed coldly and the resolution in his eyes made Mao Nana fearful.
“Uncle, have we gone overboard?”
Mao Nana did not dare to do that as the evasion in her eyes could not escape Qu Xiujie’s eyes. As long as she was willing to see it, she would be able to see the sparkle in Qu Xiujie’s eyes. However, she did not raise her head and did not have the courage to meet his eyes.
“How is this overdoing it? Didn’t you say that you want me to support you? Since you want me to support you, you have to give me your capital. If I’m not satisfied…”
