288 Chapter 288. My Little Friend

Under the shade of the tree, Mo Qian gently lifted the girl’s chin and saw the injuries on her face under the moonlight.

The night was tranquil. The warm atmosphere between Mo Qian and Zhuang Xian was heartwarming in such an intoxicating atmosphere. It was a beautiful and gentle scene.

“Does it hurt?” Mo Qian’s eyes were filled with pity as he said softly.

Zhuang Xian slowly regained her senses. She turned her head and looked at the center of the basketball court, where the lights were gathered. “It doesn’t hurt.”

Initially, when the old man and Li Qin asked her, she said it didn’t hurt, and Zhuang Xian felt something. However, when Mo Qian had asked her so gently, with his eyes full of pity and heartache, Zhuang Xian couldn’t take it anymore. The small wound behind the gauze started to hurt slightly, which was strange.

“It doesn’t hurt? Then why did you cry when you saw me? Did you miss me too much, or are you too surprised?” Mo Qian pretended to smile and asked with a hint of reluctance.

Zhuang Xian felt a slight sense of embarrassment. She lowered her head and allowed the night breeze to blow past her, gently lifting her hair. She remained silent for a long while but did not answer Mo Qian’s question.

Zhuang Xian did not know why she suddenly cried. She only felt that the moment she saw Mo Qian, some of the emotions in her heart seemed to have been reciprocated, and she felt a warm and firm feeling.

“I’m supposed to treat your leg tomorrow. Why are you here now? It’s so late; how did you get in?” Zhuang Xian tried her best to calm herself down. After a few minutes, she asked softly, “From what you said just now, do you know instructor Lei Cheng? Did he let you in?”

Mo Qian took his windbreaker from behind and carefully and gently put it on Zhuang Xian before he replied, “Can’t I come to see you in advance if I’m not here to treat my injuries? When I heard the news of your injury this afternoon, I wanted to come over, but I was held back by something at the last minute, so I rushed to see you. Fortunately, you haven’t rested!

I’m unfamiliar with Lei Cheng; we’ve only met a few times.” As Mo Qian spoke, the corners of his mouth curled up into a slightly evil smile. He looked at Zhuang Xian and continued, “I just told Lei Cheng that I came in to see our family’s bullied child, and he was straightforward to talk to and directly let me in.”

Mo Qian’s voice was warm, as if he was trying to make Zhuang Xian happy.

The effect was perfect.

The Zhuang family’s fourth young mistress turned her head and looked at Mo Qian, somewhat speechless and amused. She opened her mouth and said softly, “I don’t believe you. If you don’t know Lei Cheng well, would he be so at ease to let you wander around the military base?”

As Zhuang Xian spoke, she raised her eyebrows and asked in a teasing tone, “Why didn’t I notice before that you, Mo Qian, are such a glib talker? Where’s your boss’s aura and unsympathetic character? You don’t want it?”

If it weren’t for the fact that Mo Qian was obvious that his relationship with Zhuang Xian was still in an ambiguous stage and that Zhuang Xian was still too young, he would have grabbed this cute yet detestable Zhuang Xian and pinched her little face hard. It would be best if he could use an exceptionally intimate contact to shut her slightly annoying little mouth and stop her from saying such depressing things.

Zhuang Xian felt something was wrong with Mo Qian’s gaze and slowly turned her head back.

This damn old man, why is he always exuding such a sexy and gentle charm in front of me?

Was he trying to tempt her, a ‘minor’, to commit a ‘crime’? Zhuang Xian complained in her heart. She was unable to resist President Mo’s teasing and seduction. At her current ‘age’, she is not very suitable to date Mo Qian.

If she had met Mo Qian at the same age as her previous life, Zhuang Xian might still have some thoughts that an adult should have toward him. But with the current situation? Let’s forget it for now!

“Who said I’m strolling? I have a clear goal; I was coming straight for you!”
