The atmosphere inside the room became tense.
Mei Yan, completely unaware, continued rambling, “That malicious woman Shen Yuan, even I can’t stand her. 1 really don’t understand what kind of brain you have, choosing to engage with Shen Yuan instead of my beautiful sister. If your eyes are useless, you might as well gouge them out and use them as marbles.”
Lu Si silently took in Mei Yan’s malicious remarks.
His cold, indifferent eyes lowered slightly, naturally falling on Mei Yan’s feet. His voice carried a hint of hoarseness, “How’s the injury on your foot?”
“Huh?” Mei Yan, still talking, suddenly stopped, momentarily unable to react.
Lu Si sighed helplessly, gently lifted Mei Yan’s leg onto his lap, and the next second, Lu Si’s well-defined fingers reached towards his shoe.
Mei Yan was startled and quickly pulled his leg back, exclaiming, “Are you crazy?”
Lu Si raised an eyebrow and saw Mei Yan’s face turning red. He added a few more stern expressions, “Behave, let me see.”
Mei Yan refused to comply.
He had been too nervous all day, and his feet must have sweated a lot. Busy all day and not changing his socks, there was definitely an odor now. He didn’t want to embarrass himself in front of Lu Si, the big liar!
But Lu Si clearly hadn’t thought of this.
Since Mei Yan entered, Lu Si had noticed something strange about his walking posture. He wanted to ask if he had accidentally fallen when entering, but now, hearing him say he was stepped on by Shen Yuan’s high heels, he became concerned.
“If you don’t let me see, don’t bother going back today,” Lu Si gave him an ultimatum.
Mei Yan stiffened his neck and stared back angrily. “This is illegal detention!
You can’t get out but 1 have to go back and take care of my sister!”
“Then let me see,” Lu Si demanded, pulling his leg over again.
Mei Yan screamed and tried to push Lu Si’s hands away, but being just nine years old, he was no match for an adult man.
Moreover, Lu Si was determined to examine his injury, and no matter how Mei Yan struggled, he didn’t let go.
The moment the shoe was taken off, the strange smell dispersed in the air.
Mei Yan felt so embarrassed that he wished he could find a hole to hide in. One foot was exposed, and it felt instantly cool. He even forgot to pull it back.
Lu Si just slightly furrowed his brows, making no other expression, and proceeded to take off Mei Yan’s sock.
Only then did he notice that the child’s foot was already swollen like a steamed bun, with bruise marks spreading from a central point. It looked shocking.
How painful it must be.
Lu Si released his foot, coldly ordered Jiang Hai to fetch some medicinal wine, and then personally applied the medicine.
“All.” Mei Yan gasped in pain, sucking in a cold breath. He tried to retract his foot.
However, Lu Si firmly held his ankle and scolded him sternly, “Don’t move. If you don’t let me apply the medicine properly, you may even be disabled.”
With such a disgraceful foot, he wished he could just chop it off.
Mei Yan silently complained in his mind.
The smell in the room wouldn’t go away. He really wanted this man to open the window and let some fresh air in. However, when he lifted his eyes, he saw the man squatting down, gripping his ankle, and showing no signs of minding. Instead, he was seriously applying medicine to his foot.
Just like his brothers treated him.
The corner of Mei Yan’s lips curled up slightly, and even he himself didn’t realize that at this moment, he had developed a bit of dependence on Lu Si.
If this man could stay peacefully with his sister, it might not be bad for him to be his brother-in-law?
But as soon as this thought arose, Mei Yan ruthlessly crushed it in his mind!
“Alright.” Lu Si let go of his foot, put away the medicine bottle, and couldn’t help but give a few more instructions.
Mei Yan, pretending to be impatient, wrinkled his brows, listening in silence and starting to reach for his socks nearby.
“Don’t put them on for now,” Lu Si said, frowning. “Let the medicine absorb for a while before putting them on. Stay here for the night. Tomorrow morning, I’ll have Jiang Hai take you out.”
“No way!” Mei Yan stubbornly, with red eyes, protested.
But Lu Si wasn’t as easygoing as Mei Shu. His tone brooked no resistance. “For now, you can only listen to me.”
Mei Yan suddenly felt a bit aggrieved.
In just a short time, Lu Si had embarrassed him and now confined him to the Lu family, not letting him go back. Indeed, he shouldn’t have trusted Lu Si, the big liar. Following this man, even his sister would definitely suffer!
“Yanyan.” Lu Si didn’t want him to continue being so resistant. He patiently coaxed, “If you want to eat anything or need anything, just tell me. Rest well today. Think about it; only when your foot heals quickly can your sister be at ease, and it will be easier for you to take care of her, right?”
Reluctantly, Mei Yan had to admit that what Lu Si said was right.
Actually, his foot had been very painful for a while now. He just endured it, not wanting to make his sister worry about him..
