Chapter 197: Li Hanchen Coaxes His Wife
Li Hanchen carried Mu Sheng into the bedroom. He put her down on the bed when she struggled to get off.
Mu Sheng did not know why she felt annoyed, but Li Hanchen’s stern tone genuinely made her upset.
Li Hanchen glanced at Mu Sheng’s angry face and felt tickled inside.
Despite her lofty aura, she was just a child inside.
He squatted down to check Mu Sheng’s ankle injury.
Mu Sheng stopped him. “I am a doctor. I can take care of myself.”
Li Hanchen did not insist and stood up to leave.
Mu Sheng felt even sadder when she saw Li Hanchen leaving from behind for some reason.
She was the one who told Li Hanchen to leave, but she felt angry when he genuinely did it.
Mu Sheng moved her sprained foot. She wanted to perform acupuncture, but when she raised her head to look, she realized her silver needles were still inside the cabinet and she was unable to reach them.
Mu Sheng felt even more miserable. How could he do this? He simply carried her into her room and dumped her without taking care of her.
In her past life, her staff would take care of everything for her.
Mu Sheng lowered her head and inexplicably felt upset.
A fruit platter suddenly appeared in front of her with washed cherries and pears. There was also a small basket of snacks.
She raised her head and saw Li Hanchen standing in front of her with a lot of snacks and a glass of coca-cola in his right hand.
“This is for you.” Li Hanchen placed everything on the table in front of Mu Sheng before he squatted down to help her remove her shoes.
Mu Sheng automatically pulled her leg back, but Li Hanchen held it firmly. “Don’t move.’
He even used a stern tone, but Mu Sheng did not feel upset this time.
She watched in surprise as Li Hanchen iced her foot with an ice pack and all her anger dissipated.
Li Hanchen raised his head. “Don’t you like cherries? Help yourself. They are very fresh since they just got here.”
Mu Sheng acknowledged before reaching her hand out for a cherry. She took a bite. It tasted sweet and juicy.
Mu Sheng ate while Li Hanchen iced her ankle until the swelling had gradually subsided.
Since the temperature in the room was low, Li Hanchen got up and went back to his room to retrieve a pair of socks.
Mu Sheng looked at him quizzically, so Li Hanchen explained, “They are brand new. Since your ankle is swollen, your socks are too small.”
The moment he finished his sentence, he helped Mu Sheng to put on a black cotton sock.
Mu Sheng inexplicably felt touched as she looked at the mismatched black and white socks on her feet even though they looked strange.
In her past life, there was a team of staff taking care of her. Although they were very good at their jobs, it felt different to be genuinely taken care of by someone who cared.
Mu Sheng felt touched since no one had ever taken such good care of her before.
Mu Sheng went quiet, so Li Hanchen thought she was still in pain. “What’s wrong? Does it hurt badly? Shall we get it checked out at the clinic?”
Mu Sheng raised her head and looked at Li Hanchen. “It’s fine. I just need a few days of rest. Thanks.”
Li Hanchen reached his hand out to rub Mu Sheng’s head. “You’re welcome.”
Perhaps Mu Sheng felt touched by Li Hanchen’s kind gestures, so she did not have a problem with him touching her head. Instead, she felt moved by Li Hanchen.
She smiled at Li Hanchen brightly.
Mu Sheng rarely smiled. Now that she was smiling brightly, she seemed like a plum blossom tree blooming in spring in the snow on the mountain and looked absolutely stunning.
Her eyes were particularly bright and beautiful. They resembled jewels as they glimmered under the light.
Even though she looked innocent, she was capable of setting his deepest desire ablaze.
Li Hanchen swallowed his saliva and suddenly reached his hand out to cover Mu Sheng’s eyes. “Stop looking at me.”
Mu Sheng felt bewildered. “Li Hanchen, do you have to be so mean?”
