Chapter 130 - 130 130 Hurt My Hand
?Chapter 130: Chapter 130: Hurt My Hand Chapter 130: Chapter 130: Hurt My Hand Sheng Tingyuan wouldn’t take no for an answer and directly slid the card into her purse.
Ye Chuyi felt somewhat conflicted, finding the taste of deception rather uncomfortable, especially when the person she was deceiving was so generous and took the marriage so seriously.
She didn’t dare to imagine how angry he would be if he found out she was an impostor.
Ye Chuyi rarely worried, but now she did. She usually handled complex surgeries and tedious company business with ease, and even her love life was straightforward and decisive. Deceiving someone, however, was not her forte.
Preoccupied, Ye Chuyi was somewhat distracted while dining with Tang Jin. When she was about to return to the new house with Sheng Tingyuan, she was even more absent-minded.
So much so that when she got into the car and shut the door, she accidentally pinched her hand.
She let out a soft hiss of pain.
Sheng Tingyuan was quick to notice: “What’s wrong? Did you hurt your hand?”
Ye Chuyi looked at her hand and shook her head: “It’s nothing.”
But Sheng Tingyuan instructed the driver: “Go to the hospital.”
Ye Chuyi was somewhat shocked: “I really am fine. It’s just a pinch, the skin isn’t even broken, there’s no need for a hospital.”
Sheng Tingyuan extended his hand towards her: “Let me see.”
Ye Chuyi laid her hand in his palm: “I am a doctor myself, I know my own condition. Look, it doesn’t affect movement at all.”
Sheng Tingyuan lowered his head to look at the red mark left by the pinch on her finger, rolled down the car window, and said to the butler: “Get some ice.”
The butler quickly brought a small bucket of ice and a white towel over.
Sheng Tingyuan wrapped the ice in the towel and gently applied it to Ye Chuyi’s finger, then instructed the driver: “Head to Dome, and hurry.”
The driver responded and sped off.
Ye Chuyi was helpless: “Why won’t you believe me? Such a minor injury and we’re going to the hospital—aren’t you overdoing it a bit?”
“You’re a doctor, and one who performs highly difficult surgeries at that. Your hand is far more important than an average person’s. Being cautious is not overdoing it. Be more careful and don’t pinch your hand again.”
Ye Chuyi used to think that her teacher was already quite attentive and concerned about her hands, but she hadn’t expected to meet someone ten times more exaggerated than her teacher.
She herself didn’t care about her hands that much, after all, she grew up toughened by falls and injuries. Minor wounds like this really didn’t concern her.
Her hand was still in his grip, her finger being iced, which truly did lessen the pain.
They soon arrived at Dome, and as a doctor there, Ye Chuyi naturally didn’t need to register. She directly went to the orthopedics department and found a familiar doctor to examine her.
After the examination, the doctor said: “It’s nothing serious, just some soft tissue bruising, but the bone is fine.”
Ye Chuyi turned to look at Sheng Tingyuan: “See, I told you it was nothing.”
Sheng Tingyuan, however, asked: “Shouldn’t we get an X-ray just to be sure?”
The doctor had already recognized him and looked doubtfully from Ye Chuyi to Sheng Tingyuan, unsure of their relationship.
Hadn’t Sheng Tingyuan just gotten married, reportedly to tie his family with the Ye Family? But what exactly was going on between Doctor Anxin and him?
Even though her curiosity was piqued, she wouldn’t ask what she ought not to; she simply performed her duty: “There’s no need for an X-ray for such a minor pinch. Of course, if you’re not at ease, we can certainly do it.”
Ye Chuyi immediately said: “No need for that; my hand doesn’t even hurt anymore.”
Seeing her all right, Sheng Tingyuan said: “Then let’s get some ointment, at least.”
The doctor nodded and prescribed an anti-inflammatory and anti-swelling ointment for Ye Chuyi.
Ye Chuyi didn’t even want the ointment, but Sheng Tingyuan insisted on buying it. Unable to argue with him, she accompanied him to the pharmacy to pick up the ointment.
Afterward, the two of them headed to the parking lot. As they approached the car, Ye Chuyi subconsciously moved to open the door, but Sheng Tingyuan blocked her hand: “Let me.”
He opened the car door for her, and after she was seated, he closed it as well, not letting her lift a finger throughout the process.
Sitting in the car, Ye Chuyi suddenly felt as if it wasn’t just a pinched hand but as though she had broken her hand and become handicapped.
Wasn’t he being a little too over-the-top?
She looked down at her hand, for the first time feeling its extraordinary value.
Engrossed with her own hand and with Sheng Tingyuan, Ye Chuyi failed to notice outside the car window, a man and a woman not far away were watching them.
