Chapter 828: Chapter 828: I Want to Be Your Lover

Sun Xiaomeng blinked, suddenly turned serious, and teasingly said to Ye Xuan, “Brother Ye Xuan, if you cure my dad’s leg, in return, I’ll be your lover, okay?”

Poof!

Hearing this, Ye Xuan almost sprayed out his drink, exclaiming in surprise, “What did you say? Be my lover? Are you sure you’re not joking?”

“Of course not, I’m being serious!”

Sun Xiaomeng pouted slightly, her eyes fixed on Ye Xuan, unabashedly saying, “Brother Ye Xuan, I don’t want to hide it from you anymore. Actually, I’ve accidentally fallen for you long ago! But I know you have a girlfriend, so I’ve been suppressing these feelings, can’t chase you openly, don’t want to ruin the relationship between you and your girlfriend, and also can’t accept your pursuit…”

“But I’m unwilling to give up easily. From a young age, it’s been tough to truly fall for someone, and it would be too much of a pity to just let it go. Instead of staying hopelessly devoted, why not propose an impossible condition? That way I can get over my feelings without disrupting your life, and allow myself to hold onto a thread of hope.”

After hearing her explanation, Ye Xuan smiled wryly and said, “What if I fulfill your impossible condition and cure your dad’s leg? Would you really become my lover?”

Upon hearing this, Sun Xiaomeng froze for a moment, her cheeks flushing red, lowering her head shyly and saying:

“I really haven’t thought about that… Ah!”

At this moment, while focusing on conversation, Sun Xiaomeng accidentally missed a step on the stairs, immediately letting out a shriek.

As her body lost balance, she toppled down towards the stairs.

“Careful!”

Ye Xuan reacted quickly, stretching out an arm to wrap around Sun Xiaomeng’s waist.

His other arm supported her back, holding her falling body suspended in mid-air, preventing Sun Xiaomeng from tumbling down the stairs!

“Oh my! That was close, so close to falling!”

Realizing her fall was caught by Ye Xuan, Sun Xiaomeng patted her chest in relief, scared and sighed.

“Silly girl, I really can’t believe you! Not only is your brain slow, but even your body reacts slowly. You can even fall on the stairs? How have you lived this long without any major incident? You’re truly a miracle.”

Looking at Sun Xiaomeng’s silly and adorable face, Ye Xuan rolled his eyes with mild annoyance.

Sun Xiaomeng stuck out her tongue, feeling a bit embarrassed by Ye Xuan’s remarks, pouting and arguing, “Brother Ye Xuan, you’re teasing me again! I’m naturally not smart, what can I do about it?”

She then blinked her eyes, speaking with a playful tone, “Speaking of which, your medical technique is so good, do you have a way to make someone smarter? Can you treat me so I’m not too dumb?”

“No!”

“Really no? Brother Ye Xuan, don’t be so stingy. If I become smarter, it benefits you too!” Sun Xiaomeng said sweetly.

“Hmm? How would it benefit me?” Ye Xuan asked.

“Think about it, if I become smarter, my learning skills would definitely improve quickly! I could learn to cook and do laundry to take care of you, right? You could teach me medical techniques, and I’d assist you. Look at those attending doctors in the hospitals, don’t they all have assistants?”

“Not necessary!”

Ye Xuan rolled his eyes, lips pursed as he replied, “There’s no such thing as medical techniques that make someone smarter. Do you think this daydreaming is possible? Even if there were, your case is already too far gone, beyond cure by the Yellow River!”

After speaking, Ye Xuan helped Sun Xiaomeng up and then let go of her.

“Brother Ye Xuan, at least give some encouragement, don’t defeat someone like this… Oh!”

Before finishing her sentence, Sun Xiaomeng let out another scream and instinctively hugged Ye Xuan, managing to stabilize herself.

“Uh… What’s wrong again? Could you be trying to take advantage of me?” Ye Xuan jokingly said.

“My foot hurts so much! I can’t stand…”

Sun Xiaomeng cried out, her face filled with pain.

“Foot pain? Could it be a twisted ankle?” Ye Xuan frowned and asked with concern.

“Probably.”

Sun Xiaomeng nodded, her face showing some discomfort.

She really was unlucky, not only did she almost fall but she twisted her ankle while just trying to get up the stairs! Truly a miserable turn of events.

“Don’t walk, I’ll carry you up!”

Saying this, Ye Xuan turned around and hoisted Sun Xiaomeng onto his back, walking up the stairs.

Sun Xiaomeng leaned on Ye Xuan’s back, her clear eyes blinking gently, staring at his close and resilient face, she suddenly spoke, “Brother Ye Xuan, you’re so bad!”

“Hmm? You silly girl, I saved you, and I’m kindly carrying you home! Not only are you ungrateful, but you’re calling me bad! Really, no good deed goes unpunished!”

Ye Xuan continued climbing the stone stairs, expressing his indignation.

“Hmph, carrying me is one thing, but why did you secretly pinch my butt?” Sun Xiaomeng huffed, pouting.

Oops!

How did she notice?

Despite being caught, Ye Xuan wouldn’t admit it, solemnly denying, “Don’t slander me, I didn’t pinch your butt!”

“You say you didn’t? You’ve pinched my butt so much it’s sore, and you still won’t let go?” Sun Xiaomeng replied, exasperated.

“Alright, I admit I pinched your butt! But what’s wrong with letting me pinch it? I’m doing all the hard work carrying you up the stairs, shouldn’t I get some reward?”

Since he was found out, Ye Xuan decided to stop hiding it and began openly pinching.

“Brother Ye Xuan, you really are a big perv, taking advantage of me while I’m injured, you’re so bad!”

Sun Xiaomeng grumbled, pouting.

“Hehe! Since you say I’m so bad, shouldn’t this big perv take a bit more advantage? Otherwise, wouldn’t I fail to live up to the name?”

Ye Xuan chuckled mischievously, placing Sun Xiaomeng down in his arms.

The next moment, a naughty hand quickly slipped under her arm.

“Ah…”

Her left breast was suddenly attacked by Ye Xuan, and Sun Xiaomeng exclaimed, her cheeks instantly flushed, her body soft and powerless.

“Brother Ye Xuan, you’re so bad, I’ll beat you up!”

Sun Xiaomeng swung her small fists, continuously hitting Ye Xuan’s chest.

“Hmph! Silly girl, if you dare hit me again, I’ll touch you all over!” Ye Xuan’s mouth curved wickedly, threatening.

“Then… then I won’t hit you, you can’t touch me anymore…”

Upon hearing this, Sun Xiaomeng was immediately scared, obediently stopping her hands, curling up in Ye Xuan’s arms, not daring to move.

They were almost at the door, and she really worried that if Ye Xuan started touching her recklessly and got seen by neighbors or family, her reputation would be ruined!

If that happened, jumping into the Yellow River wouldn’t be able to wash it away.
