Even though she didnt know much about dating and love, she had observed how the guys around her had courted other girls during her racing days.
Hence, Lin Yan contemplated for a fleeting moment before she coughed to break the silence. Uncle Xie, dont just stand here. Come in and have a seat.
Xie Zhengs eyes lit up with a glimmer of hope. Sure
However, He Muyun interrupted him mid-sentence. Its too late, so its inconvenient. Perhaps another time.
This meant that there would be no specific date in sight.
Xie Zheng, who knew that He Muyun had rejected him, unconsciously nodded obediently. Okay Alright
Lin Yan was speechless
Why did he agree?
How could he be so obedient? No wonder that hed made no progress over the years!
Lin Yan, who was exasperated, attempted to catch his eye. However, the other party couldnt fathom what she was trying to convey.
Her mother looked as if she was about to go up, so Lin Yan hastily blurted out, Oh no! Uncle Xie, I saw you limping earlier on as you walked. You havent recovered from your injury yet?
When her mother heard Lin Yan, she halted. Mr. Xie, are you injured?
Although her mother was distant and cold to Xie Zheng, her manners and education prevented her from being rude to a guest. Thus, naturally, she expressed her concern for her injured guest.
Lin Yan seized this opportunity and said, Mom, you didnt know?
Indeed, Xie Zheng hadnt told her mother
Lin Yan added quickly, Wasnt there a thief here some time ago? Uncle Xie was worried about your safety and he came here every night to make sure you were safe. Then, he really saw the thief one night and accidentally hurt his leg when he tried to apprehend him. His injury was quite serious
He Muyun knew nothing about this incident. Her eyes were huge with shock, and she looked uneasy.
Actually, Xie Zheng had twisted his foot slightly. When he heard Lin Yan, he instinctively refuted her claims. Muyun, no It was just a minor injury Ive recovered
Lin Yan was speechless
She was exhausted. She had tried her best, but he did nothing to help her.
She gnashed her teeth and rattled on. Mom, Uncle Xie was afraid that you would be worried for him. That injury was so serious that he couldnt get out of bed for quite some time! Oh yeah, dont you have an ointment for sprains that I used before? It was quite effective! Why dont you help Uncle Xie apply it? He lives alone and doesnt know how to take care of himself. Look, he is still limping now!
This He Muyun hesitated but gave in eventually as the man had injured himself because of her. Come in first. Ill go get the ointment for you. There is still some left.
Lin Yan was delighted when her mother agreed. She winked at Xie Zheng.
Xie Zheng, who hadnt expected that He Muyun would allow him to enter the house, stood there like an idiot in a daze. But my leg he stammered.
No! Youre injured! Lin Yan interjected swiftly, immediately stopping him. She shot forward like an arrow and supported him. Uncle Xie, you cant even stand properly. Follow us inside!
