Xu Haohai pointed to his face and uncertainly asked, "Are you saying I should go call the doctor?"
Lin Tian nodded matter-of-factly, "Aren't you a nurse? Isn't getting dicine and calling doctors part of your job?"
In his heart, however, he was secretly laughing, You old guy, talking behind my back, making you run errands is the least of it.
Xu Haohai was speechless, I'm the leader. You make the leader run errands?
If we were in Pearl City, that would be enough for you to die several tis!
Xu Ning'an saw that the two were about to argue, quickly waved her hand, and said, "It's okay, to call Dr. Chen, just press the call button."
Saying this, Xu Ning'an pressed a button on the call system, and soon, Dr. Chen hurried over from the office.
There are several VIP rooms here, and Dr. Chen is specifically responsible for them. So when sothing happens, he must rush over imdiately.
"Miss Xu, what's the matter?" Dr. Chen asked in a hurry and fluster.
Lin Tian turned his head to look at him and said, "Oh, it's nothing serious, just wanted you to take off his cast."
Dr. Chen was stunned for a mont, "Why take off the cast?"
"Of course, to walk around, take a couple of laps, it helps with recovery," Lin Tian explained.
"Huh?" Dr. Chen's mouth was slightly open. If he didn't know that the man speaking was the internet's most recent sensation, he would have scolded him harshly.
"Mr. Lin… this, Miss Xu's bones are still healing, she can't walk now,"
Dr. Chen said with a face full of suffering. He had been practicing dicine for over twenty years and was now a professional orthopedist, but he had never heard that a fracture could allow walking before it healed completely.
Isn't this nonsensical?
"I know what you're worried about. Don't worry, I won't be so reckless. I have a set of dicine here, which would be better used during her rehabilitation exercises."
"Alright then..."
Dr. Chen had to compromise, in front of Lin Tian, he could at most act as an assistant.
Removing a cast is a troubleso task, so Lin Tian and Xu Haohai went out first, and during the ti, Lin Tian put on a mask again to avoid being recognized by others.
Xu Haohai leaned against the wall, with his arms crossed in front of his chest, smiled lightly and said, "You still look more comfortable like this, why do you have to be so handso?"
Lin Tian was speechless for a while before responding, "My parents gave birth to this excellent, what can I do?"
"If I call you fat, you start panting, you sure are shaless."
"Only by being shaless can you win over the girls, isn't it?"
Lin Tian's remark seed to touch Xu Haohai's nerve, provoking him to jump up on the spot.
Pointing at Lin Tian's nose, he yelled, "You bastard, you've already flirted with so many girls, and still won't let my daughter go? Beast!"
Lin Tian laughed indifferently and said, "When did I flirt with your daughter? Did I tease her? Or speak sweet words?"
"..."
"None of those, right? So, you can't say anything rash, I must maintain my innocence."
In the past, Xu Haohai would directly hit people like that. Now engaging in verbal spar, he found himself at a disadvantage.
"But you did sothing even more excessive!"
"What?"
"You've got her soul on a string, and even touched her leg!"
"Then I won't see her anymore, or touch her anymore, is that okay?"
"No way! If you leave, who will treat my daughter's leg?"
Lin Tian looked at him amused yet helplessly, "Then what do you want?"
"After you heal her leg, just leave."
"Even if you are the big boss of Pearl City's underground, you can't just use people and then discard them, right?"
"Then I'll give you so compensation, consider it as a paid house call, okay?"
"..."
In the end, Lin Tian insisted that he and Xu were just ordinary friends, and that Xu Haohai was overthinking it.
Xu Haohai knew Lin Tian probably thought so because there was no shortage of won around him. But his daughter, no matter what she said, her eyes couldn't lie.
Her gaze... was just like her mother's many years ago when she looked at him.
The two stood on the balcony for a long ti, each smoked three cigarettes, before Dr. Chen, with the help of two nurses, took the cast off Xu Ning'an's leg.
This feeling of relief brought tears to Xu Ning'an's eyes again. No one present could truly understand her emotion, it was a sense of rebirth.
Lin Tian had already prepared a pair of crutches and handed them to Xu Ning'an.
"Thank you." She took the crutches, still a bit unsure how to use them. After Lin Tian explained the details, she began to try slowly.
First, she lowered her uninjured left foot, put on her slippers, then her injured right foot. With both crutches under her arms, she started to walk cautiously.
"Be careful not to put too much weight on your right foot, just touch down lightly, rely mainly on the crutches for now."
Lin Tian said, standing to her right. He didn't directly support her because she needed to get used to it for a while.
Xu Ning'an began to walk carefully.
Maybe the tile floor was too slippery, or maybe her posture was wrong, or perhaps her arms weren't used to exerting force so suddenly after so long.
Whatever it was, her right crutch slipped on the floor, and she fell forward.
Xu Haohai, who was right behind her, was startled and wanted to help, but Lin Tian was faster. At this mont Xu Ning'an was already caught by Lin Tian's arms.
Seeing the two bodies sticking together from behind, Xu Haohai couldn't help but feel sorrowful. He sighed in his heart, "What a fateful entanglent! What a fateful entanglent!"
Resting in Lin Tian's embrace, her delicate nose filled with his scent, Xu Ning'an felt a bit flustered.
She was never a shy or reserved girl, but every ti she saw Lin Tian recently, her heart raced uncontrollably.
If at first, after seeing won like Liou Qingcheng, Bai Shishi, and i Ruyan in the hospital, she had decided to retreat.
But fate played a trick, leaving her leg in this state, and Lin Tian beca the only person who could heal her.
He seed like the hero Fairy Zixia had longed for, appearing at the most needed mont, that sense of security and her dependency on him. It's sothing even fatherly love couldn't match… or perhaps, she hadn't felt true fatherly love in years, placing all her expectations on Lin Tian.
"Don't be nervous, it's okay to not walk perfectly now, you're like a toddler taking wobbly first steps, just take it slow and don't fall."
"Pft~" Xu Ning'an was amused, and the nervous and embarrassed feelings vanished. She glanced at Lin Tian and said, "You're the one who's a toddler."
Xu Haohai's face darkened even more, were these two flirting?
