Chapter 404: Chapter 380, Powerful De-Fu_1
The wooden boat touched shore, and Daohua was about to stand up and disembark. She moved too hastily, causing her body to sway.
“Be careful!” freewёbnoνel.com
Xiao Yeyang quickly extended his hand to grasp hers and helped her onto the bank.
After stepping onto the bank, Daohua swiftly shook off Xiao Yeyang’s hand and glared at him fiercely.
Xiao Yeyang touched his nose, looking somewhat innocent, and muttered, “What’s wrong now?” He secured the wooden boat before quickly catching up to her.
Having walked a distance, Daohua realized she didn’t recognize the path and had to stop and wait for Xiao Yeyang. She turned slightly and saw Xiao Yeyang rubbing the back of his head; she couldn’t help but turn back to him. But after taking a few steps, she stopped and simply asked, “Where, exactly, did you hit just now?”
Xiao Yeyang lowered his hand and said with a smile, “It’s nothing; I just bumped my head a little. Don’t worry, it’s nothing compared to the injuries from martial practice.”
Daohua frowned, “A bump on the head is no trivial matter.” Pausing, she recalled that they had fallen together, and the force of impact must have been significant. Somewhat anxious, she went over to Xiao Yeyang anyway.
“Come sit on this stone bench, let me have a look.”
Seeing Daohua’s concerned expression, Xiao Yeyang obliged and took a seat on the stone bench, saying with a smile, “Then I’ll trouble Yan ‘Divine Doctor’ to take a look at me.”
Daohua, seeing that he was still joking, gave him a light tap on the shoulder, “Sit still, don’t move.”
Xiao Yeyang smiled, “Okay, I won’t move!”
Daohua reached out to examine the back of Xiao Yeyang’s head. Just as she touched it, Xiao Yeyang hissed in pain, “Did I hurt you? I’ll be gentler, then.”
Xiao Yeyang grimaced but said nothing, quietly letting Daohua check.
“How could you have such a big lump?” Daohua felt a large swelling on the back of Xiao Yeyang’s head and asked anxiously, “Do you feel dizzy? Or nauseous? Do you feel like vomiting?”
Feeling Daohua’s anxiety, Xiao Yeyang hurriedly reassured her, “Don’t rush; I’m not dizzy, nor do I feel nauseous. It just hurts a bit, but it will be fine soon.”
Daohua wasn’t quite reassured, “Are you sure?”
Xiao Yeyang nodded, “Really, it’s nothing. You can rest easy.”
Daohua frowned, “We didn’t bring anything this time; I can’t even apply any medicine for you.”
Xiao Yeyang looked up at Daohua, “No need for medicine, your fingers are cool, and it feels quite comfortable on it. Maybe you could give it a rub?”
Daohua remained silent for a moment, then quickly turned and ran towards the shore.
Xiao Yeyang stood up and quickly asked, “What are you doing?”
Without turning back, Daohua replied, “You just sit there.”
Soon, Daohua returned with a handkerchief soaked in water. She wrung it out until it stopped dripping, then folded it into a small square and placed it on the back of Xiao Yeyang’s head, “Applying ice can reduce swelling. Just press it yourself.”
Xiao Yeyang looked up at Daohua, “Is this how you take care of patients, making me press it myself?”
Daohua said expressionlessly, “I can’t be pressing it for you all the time, can I? Then I might as well not do anything else and just watch over you.”
Xiao Yeyang, “… But you have nothing else to do now, do you?”
Daohua, “So we’re not going back? Since you seem to be in such high spirits, I think you might not even need a cold compress.” Saying this, she reached to take back the handkerchief.
Xiao Yeyang immediately grabbed Daohua’s hand, “I still need it; it really hurts.”
Daohua stuffed the handkerchief into Xiao Yeyang’s hand and withdrew her own, “Then you’d better apply it quickly.”
“I will right now!”
Xiao Yeyang swiftly pressed the damp cloth to the back of his head, “Let’s go; I’ll take you back.”
Daohua hesitated for a moment, “Do you want to sit for a while to rest?”
Xiao Yeyang was about to say there was no need, but then quickly changed his mind and replied, “Resting sounds good.” He shifted to the side, “Why don’t you sit for a bit, too?”
Daohua glanced at the not-so-large stone bench and shook her head, “I’d rather not sit.”
