Reborn in 2006, I met Mr. Zhou from the past.

The little girl looked a bit disheveled. Her jet-black hair was tied in a ponytail, and her delicate face was deathly pale from the pain. Her peach blossom eyes blinked, clear, bright, and clean.

Despite her injury and disheveled state, she remained quietly there, appearing harmless. Yet, this beautiful young girl possessed a stubborn and resilient nature, even exhibiting a self-protective toughness, making her a contradiction, or more like a little hedgehog that would immediately bristle its quills if offended.

This was the first time Zhou Chenyu had felt pity for such a conflicted girl. He couldn't understand why a young girl couldn't show some weakness and had to suffer like this.

He couldn't explain why he changed his mind and brought her to the hospital himself. Originally, he could have just paid compensation or had someone else accompany her, but at that moment, he acted impulsively and got into a fight with a young girl.

He closed his eyes briefly, and suddenly something occurred to him. Yes, it was because of this little girl that he was reminded of himself when he was young—covered in thorns, extreme, wary, strong-willed, stubborn, and indifferent.

Because of a strange young girl, for the first time he was willing to try to recall that deliberately forgotten period of his youth, wanting to figure out what exactly happened back then. Just as he was thinking about whether to call Shi Anjin, a form was suddenly handed to him.

Dr. Jiang urged, "Go pay the bill and get your medicine, hurry up, the young lady is waiting."

The man took the form, glanced at it, and said to Su Fengnan, "Wait here, I'll get the medicine and then give it to you."

Su Fengnan then looked up and hummed in response, her gaze meeting a pair of cool, dark eyes. The man's handsome face remained expressionless.

Su Fengnan finally got a good look at the man's face; he was truly handsome. In both her past and present lives, this man was definitely in the top three most handsome men she had ever seen.

He was very tall, probably over 1.8 meters, with a straight and upright posture. He wore a white T-shirt with a light blue casual shirt over it, paired with black casual pants, looking clean, neat, and dashing.

After he left.

Dr. Jiang then examined her closely: "Young lady, how did you get injured while you were with Chen Yu?"

Su Fengnan had intended to close her eyes and rest for a while, but then Dr. Jiang suddenly asked that question, and she knew that the other party had misunderstood.

So, she looked at Dr. Jiang for a moment and said, "Dr. Jiang, you want to know what my relationship is with the person who brought me here, right?"

Jiang Shaoqing was momentarily embarrassed; he hadn't expected this young girl to be so direct.

Su Fengnan didn't care whether Dr. Jiang was embarrassed or not. Considering that he had helped her treat her injury, she felt it was necessary to explain.

"Dr. Jiang, I'm a high school student. I was having class at my teacher's house tonight, and on my way home I was hit by one of your friend's men, which is why he brought me here for a check-up. That's all."

After saying that, he leaned back in his chair, closed his eyes, and looked like he didn't want to talk anymore.

Jiang Shaoqing never expected things to turn out this way.

But Zhou Chenyu has never done anything like this before. This is the first time. Could it be that the iron tree is about to bloom?

Jiang Shaoqing glanced at Su Fengnan again. The little girl sat there quietly, her thick bangs covering her forehead. Perhaps she had fallen and been frightened, her face was a little pale, but when she spoke, her clear and bright eyes blinked, which was particularly moving, as if they could speak.

Something's off with Zhou Chenyu. He's acting like he's bumped into a little wife! It's rare to see this iceberg so willing to "help others," this is definitely the first time!

As Jiang Shaoqing was inwardly complaining, footsteps approached, and the man returned with the medicine.

Jiang Shaoqing immediately said, "Chen Yu, you've come at the right time. I'm going to check on the patients. Could you apply the medicine to the little girl? You have a strong hand, so you can help rub away the bruises and swelling. The more you rub, the faster it will heal."

Jiang Shaoqing silently added insult to injury in his mind: Chen Yu, I've created an opportunity for you, you'd better seize it.

"No need, I can manage on my own," Su Fengnan immediately refused.

The man was also confused. Isn't applying medicine the job of doctors and nurses? Why is it his turn?

"Could you do it yourself?" Dr. Jiang asked.

"I can do it," Su Fengnan said.

"Don't try to be a hero..." Dr. Jiang was about to say more when Su Fengnan interrupted her.

"Dr. Jiang, I'm not familiar with him. Either I can do it myself, or you can find me a nurse."

The man was also a little embarrassed, as they were indeed not familiar with each other.

Jiang Shaoqing glanced at Zhou Chenyu and explained to Su Fengnan in a kind tone, "Miss, it's nighttime now, and there are only two nurses on duty, both of whom are busy."

Then she said to the man, "Chen Yu, you brought these people here. Are you just going to stand by and do nothing?"

After hearing Dr. Jiang's words, Su Fengnan felt a surge of anger.

She knew she shouldn't have gotten angry; normally, she might have just listened to the doctor's advice.

She was already feeling down tonight, and then she got injured in the accident, making her feel incredibly wronged. She didn't want to have anything to do with these people, but she had no choice but to come to the hospital for a checkup. Was she going to be played with by this doctor?

She wasn't some naive young girl; she was a mature woman at heart. Dr. Jiang's little schemes couldn't escape her notice. She had neither the inclination nor the time to waste on these two.

She got up, walked to the man's side, took the medicine, and put it in her bag.

She turned around and bowed to Dr. Jiang: "Thank you for examining me. I can do this myself, applying the medicine."

Then she said to the man, "Brother, the check-up is done. I'm fine, I just need a few days of rest. You can stay and catch up with your friends. I'll be going now, no need to see me off."

After saying that, without waiting for their response, he endured the pain and limped out of the examination room.

The two men looked at each other, bewildered as to how things had turned out this way.

Jiang Shaoqing felt he hadn't done anything, only said a couple of words, so why did the girl storm off in anger? He was completely baffled.

"Hey, Chen Yu, the girl hasn't had her medicine applied yet. You'd better hurry up and catch up with her and make sure she applies the medicine, or she'll suffer later."

Zhou Chenyu was also helpless. This girl was not like someone her age at all. She was not only old-fashioned, but also so stubborn.

Zhou Chenyu chased after her and saw the little girl waiting for the elevator. He gritted his teeth, walked over and said, "Excuse me," before hoisting Su Fengnan onto his shoulder.

Yes, he carried it on his shoulder, and with a few strides, he was back in the examination room. Luckily, there weren't many people in the corridor, or Su Fengnan would have been mortified.

Zhou Chenyu gently placed the person on the examination room bed and said in a deep voice, "Young lady, don't be stubborn. Your body is your own responsibility. Take out the medicine, and I'll administer it for you."

Su Fengnan was furious; her eyes reddened and filled with tears, as if she were about to burst into tears. She sat up, turned her face away, and silently protested.

She feels unwell all over, her head is a little dizzy, and she doesn't want to do anything.

Seeing the girl's attitude, Zhou Chenyu simply took matters into his own hands and unzipped her backpack: "I didn't mean to go through your bag, I just wanted to get my medicine."

Seeing that the little girl did not resist, Zhou Chenyu took out some medicine, poured it into his palm, and bent down to apply it to her, reminding her in advance, "It will hurt a little."

"Um."

Su Fengnan responded softly.

She calmed down. Considering the man's willingness to take responsibility for her injury, she didn't want to harbor any more hostility towards him, but it's always best to be cautious. Regardless of what this person did, it was best to stay away.
