The Overbearing CEO's Little Wildcat (28)

"Ahem, this cast... I had him put this cast on you."

At the time, he thought her ankle was so swollen it must be a serious injury, so he insisted Nie Feng put a cast on her.

Besides, he thought it would be good for her to stay in the hospital for a few more days.

That would give her more time to get used to him, and then he could just take her home directly once she was discharged.

This was the first time he'd ever been so attentive to something, thinking everything through so thoroughly.

He just hadn't expected her identity...

"..." Su Qiao was truly speechless, looking at the man who was clearly a bit uncomfortable.

So the culprit was right here; she had even thought it was some kind of conspiracy.

"Ahem, ahem."

Qin Mohan was a bit embarrassed by her stare, his ears turning red, but his handsome face remained calm.

"Your ankle injury is quite severe. A slight carelessness could cause you to sprain it again, worsening the condition, which is why I had him put a cast on you."

Su Qiao's sharp eyes caught sight of his reddened earlobes, and she was momentarily astonished.

He was blushing?

Unbelievable.

This man's entire face, his entire being, practically screamed 'don't mess with me.'

He wasn't young either, almost 30, and he was blushing over such a small matter?

How strange.

Thinking of what had just happened, Su Qiao's eyes darted around. "Do you know that doctor from just now?"

"Yes, we were university classmates."

"Then could you ask him for a favor?"

Qin Mohan was very cooperative: "Tell me."

Su Qiao looked at her right leg: "I want everyone outside to believe my leg is broken and that I'll be unable to walk properly in the future."

Although Little Four had altered the computer records, the doctor surnamed Nie knew the truth.

She was worried that if the Qin Family inquired, the truth would easily be revealed.

Qin Mohan's eyes flickered, and he quickly understood: "You don't want people to know your leg is fine?"

Could she be...

Trying to use this to test if that scoundrel Qin Yu was truly sincere towards her?

Thinking that this was a possibility, Qin Mohan's face turned a bit green.

Su Qiao didn't notice his sudden change in expression, nodding slightly: "Mhm."

Only then would those people be reckless, and she could catch them red-handed, giving them a taste of their own medicine.

"I'll handle it, you rest."

The more Qin Mohan thought about it, the darker his expression became, as if a fire was burning inside him.

He dropped that one sentence and then strode out of the ward.

He was afraid that if he didn't leave soon, he would explode in front of her.

"Is this guy angry?"

Seeing him leave mid-sentence, with what looked like a sulky expression, Su Qiao found it a bit strange but didn't dwell on it.

Although the two of them were now allies, they were essentially just strangers who had recently met.

Of course, the 'alliance' part was just Su Qiao's unilateral assumption.

As far as Qin Mohan was concerned, she belonged entirely to him.

After Qin Mohan left, Su Qiao picked up the phone from the nightstand.

She found several missed calls, all from Qin Yu.

Later, he probably realized no one was answering, so he sent a few comforting messages.

The general gist was that he had an urgent matter and had to fly to Country M's branch company immediately, apologizing for not being able to look after her.

Su Qiao casually deleted them, ignoring them, then started looking for a novel to read.

Little Four had told her before to read more novels, as it would be beneficial for her future missions.

Since she was bored anyway, she might as well just read something casually.

Qin Mohan had finally left. Little Four tossed away the electronic novel in its hand, its face beaming with an 'I deserve praise' expression.

Host, I have something good, do you want to see it?

"What?" Su Qiao didn't even lift an eyelid, covering her mouth as she let out a small yawn.
