Unparalleled medical and martial arts skills, saving the CEO's fiancée at the start.
Chapter 19 Sprained Ankle
Watching Ye Chen's retreating figure, Ma Wu's underlings were still trembling.
"Fifth Master, where did this Ye Chen come from? How come he's so powerful?" Ma Wu's henchmen gathered around him, clutching their injured areas.
Ye Chen's two slaps were quite forceful; there were finger marks on his face, and blood was flowing from the corner of his mouth.
"A dying man can't cause much trouble. Let him run wild for a few days. Immediately notify the seventh and eighth brothers to come back, and at the same time, call back all the martial arts masters from other places."
"Fifth Master, you are truly brilliant. You first gained Ye Chen's trust, giving us time to gather our brothers and take revenge. You are truly skilled. I admire you."
Ma Wu touched his aching face and left with his underlings.
How could a big thug like Ma Wu easily back down and admit defeat, as that would mean losing his status and wealth?
After walking for a while, Jiang Ruoxi felt a little tired, so Ye Chen found a stone bench for her to rest.
"Honey, I just heard you talk about 'us'? Does that mean you accept me?"
Ye Chen asked very directly, and Jiang Ruoxi's face immediately turned red.
"I was forced to do it just now. I'm warning you, don't go looking for trouble."
"How could that be? And you put a listening device in my collar just to find out more about my activities!"
"No way, you're overthinking it. I just don't know your background, whether you're a good person or a bad person. Besides, asking me to agree to a marriage contract is a bit too much, isn't it?"
Jiang Ruoxi rubbed her legs and continued speaking.
"Besides, with today's advanced technology, it's incredibly easy to imitate someone's handwriting and artificially age a marriage certificate!"
Ye Chen had no interest in listening to her analysis. He only acknowledged one thing: Jiang Ruoxi was gradually accepting him.
Some things can't be rushed; they take time. Let's take it slow!
"Wife, it doesn't matter. Whether you admit it or not, that's how I feel. You already have me in your heart..." Ye Chen started showing his rascally helpless side again.
"Ye Chen, you...you bastard..." Jiang Ruoxi pretended to be angry and raised her hand to hit Ye Chen.
Her strength is far beyond what Ye Chen can be measured by levels; the difference is simply too great.
Jiang Ruoxi stood up, but lost her balance. Her high heels sank into the mud, and she fell straight backward, screaming in fright.
How could Ye Chen possibly miss this perfect opportunity to be a hero and save the beauty, or rather, to take advantage of Jiang Ruoxi?
He reached out and quickly hugged Jiang Ruoxi's shoulders and waist, causing her body to tilt at a 45-degree angle as she fell into Ye Chen's arms.
The two looked into each other's eyes. Jiang Ruoxi looked into Ye Chen's eyes and, thinking about being suddenly hugged by him like this, her face instantly turned red to the roots of her ears.
Being hugged like this by a strange man for the first time in my life is naturally very embarrassing.
"Wife, you're so beautiful, like a fairy from heaven. You're the most beautiful woman I've ever seen besides my master..."
"Ye Chen, you're just a scoundrel! Can you please let go of me and help me up?"
"Wait a minute, let me savor this feeling."
"Mommy, look, what's wrong with that uncle and aunt? Are they about to fall? Shall we help them?"
"Son, no need. Your aunt and uncle are practicing a dance. It's just a dance move, they don't need our help. Let's hurry up and leave so as not to disturb their practice."
The conversation between the mother and child who happened to be passing by made Jiang Ruoxi blush even more. The child's innocent words revealed the kind side of people.
"Ye Chen, if you don't let go, I'm really going to get angry!"
Hearing Jiang Ruoxi issue her final ultimatum, Ye Chen had no choice but to help her up.
Ye Chen squatted down and gently helped Jiang Ruoxi take off her shoes and put them back on.
Ye Chen wasn't doing this on purpose; he was just saying it intentionally for Jiang Ruoxi to hear: "Alright, we can go now..."
Before she had taken more than a few steps, Jiang Ruoxi let out an "Ah!"
"Ye Chen, I can't take it anymore, I think I twisted my ankle, it hurts so much..."
"Don't worry, let me see." Ye Chen squatted down and saw that Jiang Ruoxi's right ankle was obviously swollen.
Ye Chen stood up, picked Jiang Ruoxi up in a princess carry, and carried her forward. Jiang Ruoxi was startled by his sudden action.
"Don't talk. I'll carry you to the stone bench in front so I can check your leg injury." Seeing that Ye Chen meant no harm, Jiang Ruoxi stopped talking and let him carry her forward.
Jiang Ruoxi was not heavy, and Ye Chen was a martial artist, so they walked very easily.
We walked for almost a mile before we saw a stone bench.
"Ye Chen, there's a stool here, let's sit here, otherwise you're too tired."
"It's alright, you're not heavy, you can walk another ten or twenty miles without any problem, why don't you give it a try?"
"Let's forget it. I can walk... I don't need you to carry me."
"It's okay, you're my wife after all. If I don't take care of you, who will?"
"Stop flattering yourself, okay? There are enough people wanting to date me to circle Jiangcheng twice; they're all vying for my attention."
Jiang Ruoxi is right. A stunning beauty like her has countless suitors.
Ah!
As soon as Ye Chen touched Jiang Ruoxi's foot, she cried out in pain.
Ye Chen noticed that her ankle was swollen. He examined it carefully and found that there was no bone injury, just a normal sprain, which he could treat.
"Honey, you've just sprained your ankle. It's nothing serious. I'll start treating it now. It might hurt a little, but it'll be over in a few minutes. Just bear with it..."
"Will I get better if I rest for a few days without treatment?"
"It's possible, but there are too many uncertainties. What if we damage a bone or nerve?"
Jiang Ruoxi listened to Ye Chen's words, feeling a little embarrassed, but finally nodded in agreement: "Then please treat me!"
Soon, Ye Chen used his unique technique to massage Jiang Ruoxi's ankle.
At first, Jiang Ruoxi felt a little pain, but as Ye Chen continued to exert force, she felt more and more comfortable, experiencing an indescribable sensation.
Jiang Ruoxi, on the contrary, was immersed in enjoying herself.
"Hey, honey, why don't you try walking a few steps?"
"Oh, is it okay now? I'll give it a try!"
Jiang Ruoxi noticed that her ankle was no longer as swollen as before, and the pain had disappeared.
She cautiously took one step, then two steps...
"Ye Chen, it doesn't hurt anymore! It really doesn't hurt anymore!"
Jiang Ruoxi exclaimed happily. This was the first time Ye Chen had seen her smile, and so happily and naturally.
A cold, aloof female CEO, at this moment, resembles an innocent young girl; this is how she should truly be.
Ye Chen ignored her and quietly watched from the side, letting her have some fun by herself, since she usually carried too much pressure.
"Ye Chen, let's hurry up and go back for dinner. Make me some noodles..."
"Okay, honey, I'll make it for you every day from now on..."
