Chapter 193: Chapter 193: Applying the Plaster
Soon enough, Liu Zheng stepped forward to lift her up and then carry her to the clinic.
To his surprise, when Liu Zheng extended his hand, the beautiful woman couldn’t resist shifting her body backward.
"What are you doing?"
She appeared to be very vigilant.
Without hesitation, Liu Zheng spoke up.
"Of course, I’m going to carry you to the clinic. Looking at you in this condition, you probably can’t walk, can you? Plus, walking would only make your condition worse. I’m doing this for your good."
The beauty’s eyes flickered.
She had intended to try walking on her own, but after attempting, she realized her leg truly was unbearably painful.
Ultimately, she gave up.
Quickly, Liu Zheng scooped her up in his arms.
Although her figure looked quite nice, he didn’t expect her weight to be this light; Liu Zheng easily lifted her up without effort.
Before long, he finally managed to carry her to the clinic.
Soon, Liu Zheng was ready to remove her high heels.
But the beauty instantly raised her hand to cover them and stopped Liu Zheng’s movement.
"What are you doing?"
Seeing her
Seeing her so wary, Liu Zheng couldn’t fathom why her defenses were so strong.
He smiled awkwardly, then lifted his hand to point at her ankle and said,
"How can I apply the medicated plaster if I don’t take off your shoes?"
Hearing this, the beautiful woman in front of him finally seemed to understand and turned her head away a bit, no longer obstructing the person in front of her.
At that moment, the window was not closed.
A ray of sunlight came through the window.
When that ray of sunlight hit Liu Zheng’s face,
the beauty couldn’t resist glancing in the direction of his face.
To her surprise, upon closer inspection, she thought he was quite handsome.
Not only that.
She found that he bore a resemblance to someone from her past.
Could it be her illusion?
She couldn’t help but lift her hand to gently rub her eyes, trying to see more clearly.
The events unfolding before her did indeed seem somewhat surreal.
But as she seriously rubbed her eyes to look, she found the more she looked, the more he resembled that person.
Until after Liu Zheng had finished applying the medicated plaster,
the beauty kept staring at Liu Zheng intently.
This truly made Liu Zheng in front of her feel quite astonished. He lifted his hand to wave it in front of her eyes gently and asked,
"What are you doing?"
After hearing this, she finally seemed to snap back to reality and obediently shifted her gaze elsewhere.
"It’s... it’s nothing."
Although Liu Zheng could tell that something was slightly off about the beauty, he didn’t pay too much attention to it.
He had thought since she was so beautiful and had such a nice figure, maybe he could strike up a conversation.
But now, seeing that the beauty had such a fiery temper, it was good enough to avoid any trouble from her, so he decided not to think too much about it.
Besides, she had mentioned calling her bodyguard earlier. It seemed likely she wasn’t just anyone, and he didn’t want to provoke such a person.
In addition, had he just left and not treated her, it might have made her even angrier and led to her lashing out at him.
Although he hadn’t struck up a conversation just yet, he had at least taken care of a potential problem for himself.
So, he quickly opened his mouth and said.
"All right, the plaster has been applied. You said to let your bodyguard come, didn’t you? You can have your bodyguard come directly here, and then leave. It’s best not to move around too much for now."
The woman opened her mouth as if she wanted to say something after hearing these words.
But she hesitated for a while and eventually held it back.
"Okay, I got it. Thank you for the trouble."
She quickly took out her phone and made a call to her bodyguard.
It wasn’t long before her bodyguard finally arrived.
Soon, they left together.
At this moment, Liu Zheng watched their retreating figures and truly felt a bit puzzled.
Who exactly was this beautiful woman, and why had he never seen her before?
Logically speaking, he should have known almost all the pretty girls nearby.
But after thinking it over, he realized there were plenty of people he didn’t know and decided it wasn’t necessary to care too much.
So he quickly pushed the matter to the back of his mind and stopped thinking about it.
After all, he had his own things to do, and it was impossible to focus all his attention on this matter.
Unexpectedly, as he busied himself with his own affairs, a knock on the door suddenly sounded.
This did surprise him, and he wondered who it could be.
"What is it? Come in."
Then, a man pushed the door open and entered.
As he came up to Liu Zheng with some excitement and began to speak.
"Oh my God, I didn’t expect you to become even more handsome after so long!"
The sudden praise left Liu Zheng quite astonished, having no clue who he was.
However, the man did not hesitate to come directly up to him and gave Liu Zheng a tight hug.
This made Liu Zheng feel even more incredulous.
He closed his eyes slightly, awkwardly pondering in his mind who this person could be?
But no matter how long he thought about it, he couldn’t figure it out.
Lately, all of his attention and energy had been on women, so seeing a man suddenly being so enthusiastic towards him, he felt even more puzzled.
Quite soon, though,
The man finally let him go.
Then, grinning from ear to ear, he raised his hand and patted Liu Zheng’s shoulder, saying,
"I can’t believe how much more handsome you’ve gotten after all this time, and you’ve even opened a small clinic."
When he said this, he saw that Liu Zheng seemed to have no reaction whatsoever.
This struck him as odd, not knowing why Liu Zheng was acting this way.
But quickly he seemed to understand something.
He then awkwardly pulled on Liu Zheng.
"Don’t tell me you don’t remember who I am?"
Hearing this, Liu Zheng lifted his hand awkwardly to scratch the back of his head and said,
"I’m really sorry, I’ve been quite busy lately, to the point that my memory is a bit fuzzy. Who are you?"
The man in front of him didn’t seem angry; instead, he burst into hearty laughter.
"Geez! I’m your elementary school classmate, the one who always used to follow you around asking for food, Wang Yong!"
Upon hearing this, Liu Zheng finally understood.
