What he found strange was that the things Cheng Huan sent him, why did they pass through Helian Manli’s hands and not directly to him?
Upon hearing his question, an unknown light flashed across Helian Manli’s face.
She stopped and turned around to look at him. “What do you mean by asking this?”
“Don’t misunderstand, I’m just a little curious as to why the photos were sent to you.”
“Regarding this, I’m also not very clear.”
“It’s fine.”He glanced at her and didn’t continue to ask.
He didn’t know if it was deliberate, or if she was really a little absent-minded.
Just as Helian Manli was about to turn around and continue walking, the high heels under her feet suddenly slipped, and her entire body instantly fell off the sidewalk. Fortunately, her hand quickly grabbed Xiang Yi’s arm, which didn’t cause her to make a fool of herself, she directly fell down.
“Ah!”
But in the next moment, she furrowed her brows in pain.
“What’s Wrong?”He turned his head and instinctively held her.
“My Foot...”she was in so much pain that she seemed to be unable to stand up. She could only follow his body and slowly slide down.
But because she was wearing a skirt, at this moment, even if she sat down, it would not be good to sit on the ground. For a moment, she did not know what to do.
“What’s wrong with your foot?”
“Just now, I think... I think I missed my step.”
He calmly glanced at her, then squatted down and lifted the hem of her skirt a little. He saw that the high heel on his right foot had already fallen off.
He must have sprained his ankle.
“Can You Walk?”
Under his questioning, Helian Manli tried to lift her foot and take a step forward.
Just as she moved her foot, she felt pain. “AH...”
She was in so much pain that her body lost its balance again. She threw herself at him, who was supporting her.
The sudden impact made him instinctively reach out to catch her. If he didn’t reach out, both of them might fall to the ground at the same time, and she might directly fall on him.
But when he reached out to catch her, it was as if the two of them were hugging each other.
Sensing this ambiguous action, he hurriedly held her steady and pushed her away from him. “Can’t You Walk?”
Helian Manli shook her head and frowned. “I don’t think so. It hurts too much.”
“Then I’ll find a car and send you to the hospital.”
She looked up and looked at him with some confusion. “Don’t you have a car? Why do you want to find it?”
His car was parked at the entrance of the hotel, and they were not very far away on foot. When they turned around, they could still see the location of the hotel entrance, but the light was too dim, so they could not see his car.
He also knew that the two of them were not very far from the entrance of the hotel. They said that they were looking for a car, but they did not want to have too intimate physical contact with her.
“Moreover, you don’t have to send me to the hospital. Just send me back to the hotel. My father has a doctor by his side.”She looked at him, and her expression suddenly became a little sad.
Under the night sky, his calm face still did not show any emotion. When he met her sad eyes, Xiang Yi did not speak for a long time.
“I know. I’ll walk back on my own.”She glanced at him, her eyes suddenly welling up with tears.
After saying that, she turned around and was about to force herself to walk towards the hotel.
“Ah!”
However, just as she took a step, her body slid down.
The next moment, she was caught by a strong hand. Then, she felt her body being lifted into the air by someone.
When she looked up again, she saw that familiar handsome face. However, it looked a little cold and indifferent.
