#301 - Chapter 301 He's really good at massage! Push the relationship? Breaking news, defection
Ding Xiang held a bottle of medicated oil, ready to enter the courtyard.
“Why am I here?”
She glanced at Chen Hao: “If your phone could be reached, I wouldn’t need to be here!”
Half an hour ago.
Xia Qingmo returned from the pharmaceutical laboratory.
It was already dark.
Some places had no streetlights. Xia Qingmo tripped on a stone, and as a result, her foot was sprained.
She sent Chen Hao a text message, asking if he had returned.
Thinking that he would come back and buy a bottle of medicated oil along the way, but…
She waited for his reply, but it never came.
What to do?
As her personal bodyguard, she had no choice but to ask Ding Xiang to buy the medicated oil.
“Well… sorry.”
Chen Hao quickly took the medicated oil, took a few steps, and then turned back: “Xiang Yan.”
“Here!”
Xiang Yan came out of the shadows.
Chen Hao quickly leaned in and whispered a few words.
…
Inside the living room.
Xia Qingmo sat on the sofa, her beautiful eyebrows furrowed.
After taking off her shoes, her fair and tender little feet rested on the sofa, the ankle of her right foot was red and swollen.
When she saw Chen Hao open the door and come in, she quickly put her feet down, ready to put on her shoes.
“Don’t move!”
Chen Hao ran over.
He held her down and whispered: “Sorry, my phone was off…”
This time.
He wasn't lying, his phone broke and he took it to be repaired.
“It’s okay.”
Seeing him take out the medicated oil, the girl’s face flushed red: “I… I’ll do it myself.”
“Let me.” Chen Hao opened the medicated oil.
“No need… I…”
“It’s not convenient for you to apply it yourself, I’ll help you massage it a bit.”
“I didn’t wash my feet…”
Chen Hao didn’t care!
So what if she didn’t wash her feet?
His wife’s feet weren’t smelly at all, and even if they were, so what? Anyway, he didn’t care.
“Bear with it.”
He grabbed her foot with one hand and reached for her ankle with the other, touching the painful spot.
The girl subconsciously flinched, but in the end, she didn’t pull back, silently accepting with a flushed face.
They held hands.
They kissed.
But…
Like now, being held by him like this, was a first!
Chen Hao gently put her foot down, capped the medicated oil, and put it away: “I’ll take you to class tomorrow morning, try not to use this foot as much as possible, and definitely don’t do strenuous exercise…”
Xia Qingmo woke up from her daze.
Her face was full of surprise.
The pain was obviously reduced by more than half!
Was it because of the medicated oil?
No!
Medicated oil was only an aid, how could it be so effective so quickly? It must be because of the massage!
“You… are you really good at massage?!” She seemed to have discovered a new continent.
“I learned it from a book.” Chen Hao chuckled.
“Can massage cure other illnesses?”
“Other illnesses?”
“No… nothing.”
Xia Qingmo’s face was flushed, she turned her head and whispered: “Are you going to cook? I’ll help you.”
“I’ll do it, you sit there and don’t move.”
Chen Hao guessed the reason for her words.
In the previous life, his wife had problems with menstrual cramps, but it wasn’t particularly serious.
It’s just…
The current her can't accept letting him massage her lower abdomen.
Massage can indeed have a relieving effect on certain symptoms, but she can't accept it for the time being, unless…
The relationship is pushed further!
How to push it?
…
The next day.
Pharmaceutical department classroom.
The last class ended.
“Qingmo, shall we take you back?” Zhang Yi volunteered.
“Yes!”
Zhao Yunjie nodded: “You can’t move around randomly when your foot is sprained, otherwise it won’t get better for a while.”
It was hard to refuse their kindness.
The two girls supported her, one on the left and one on the right.
After walking out of the classroom and gradually moving away from the crowd, the conversation became less restrained.
“Zhang Yi, what stage have you and Bai Tong reached?” Zhao Yunjie asked casually.
“I…”
Zhang Yi's face turned red: “We’ve only held hands…”
“No way? Only held hands?!”
Zhao Yunjie widened her eyes: “Your progress is too slow!”
What do you mean?
Zhang Yi was very surprised: “You and Deng Xiaoyan, couldn’t it be that you’ve already…”
“Anyway, I’ve decided on him.”
Zhao Yunjie’s face was slightly red: “Isn’t it a matter of course to reach that stage? Look at Qingmo and Chen Hao, as long as they’ve decided on each other, even living together is normal.”
Ah?!”
Xia Qingmo was stunned and shook her head repeatedly: “Chen Hao and I… we haven’t!”
“Haven’t?!”
It was Zhao Yunjie and Zhang Yi’s turn to be surprised.
“No way? You’ve been living together for so long, and you haven’t slept together yet?” Zhao Yunjie looked incredulous.
Sleep together?!”
Hearing this word, Xia Qingmo almost collapsed: “We… we respect each other very much.”
“Respect?”
Even Zhang Yi was stunned: “Qingmo, I and Bai Tong haven’t reached that stage, but you’re different! Your relationship with Chen Hao has already spread throughout the school, and you’re living together, this…”
“Boys are generally horny, if you’re too conservative… be careful he cheats!” Zhao Yunjie nodded repeatedly.
“You don’t know, there are so many girls in the school who are interested in Chen Hao.”
“That’s right!”
The two girls chatted back and forth.
“He… he’s not that kind of person.” Xia Qingmo’s tone was firm.
Actually.
She felt a little guilty.
The three girls walked and chatted, unknowingly reaching the section of the road where Xia Qingmo sprained her ankle yesterday.
Suddenly, they discovered that that area was very bright.
In fact!
It was a new streetlight!
And not just one.
Extending towards the residence, there was a new streetlight every ten meters or so along the way.
Xia Qingmo was stunned.
After a moment, the corners of her mouth subconsciously lifted, a gentle smile.
Besides him, who else would be so considerate to her?
Is their relationship…?
Should it be, as Zhang Yi and Zhao Yunjie said, appropriately take a step further?
Holding hands.
Kissing.
He was the one pushing it all along.
Love is a two-way street, it’s not appropriate to always let him push the relationship, right?
Not knowing what she was thinking, her face turned red again.
…
More than half an hour later.
Xia Qingmo sat on the sofa, waiting for her boyfriend to come back, while her heart was in a mess.
Finally.
She heard the sound of the door opening.
Her heartbeat suddenly quickened a lot.
“Qingmo, I’m back.”
Chen Hao walked into the living room: “Massage your foot first?”
“Yeah!”
The girl nodded softly.
Could massaging her feet be used as an opportunity to push the relationship forward?
But…
It’s really embarrassing!
Just as Chen Hao found the medicated oil and was about to massage his wife’s feet, a knock sounded on the door.
“Who is it?” Chen Hao frowned.
“Me.”
Xiang Yan?
Chen Hao’s heart sank.
As a bodyguard hidden in the shadows, Xiang Yan would not easily show himself, unless… there was an emergency!
“Qingmo, I…”
“It’s okay, you go ahead and get busy.”
Xia Qingmo smiled.
She didn’t ask who was outside the door, let alone get to the bottom of it.
Chen Hao nodded, quickly walked towards the outside, opened the door, went out, and then closed it: “What’s wrong?”
“Shi Dali received a call.”
Xiang Yan lowered his voice: “Something happened to the company!”
“Did he say specifically what happened?”
“Someone… defected!”
“…”
Chen Hao’s pupils constricted.
Whether it was Hanteng Capital or its subsidiaries, there were many different departments.
Ordinary employees, at most, resign or quit, but the word ‘defected’ is only used for core technical personnel!
“Chairman Chen, should I take people to chase after them?” Shi Dali also came.
“No need.”
Chen Hao quickly walked outside, narrowing his eyes with a cold smile: “They can’t escape.”
