Bai Lu was shocked. This time, she was almost certain of something.
She craned her neck and looked at Liang Feifan in disbelief. "Mr. Liang, do … do you mean that you believe me?"
He bent down and scooped Bai Lu up in his arms.
He carried her in a princess carry.
It was rumored that a princess carry could capture a beauty's heart. Especially when she was carried by such an outstanding and dazzlingly handsome man …
Bai Lu felt her whole body tense up. Then, her face quickly turned red, and her ears burned. In the end, her whole body was boiling hot. She had difficulty breathing, and she didn't know where to put her hands. She just stared at Liang Feifan in a daze. In the depths of her dark eyes, there was shock, surprise, and a feminine shyness that couldn't be concealed.
"Don't look at me like that. Your ankle is injured. Since you can't walk, why do you keep forcing yourself?" Liang Feifan's voice was very calm. He carried her very naturally. "I'll take you to see a doctor."
His warm breath landed on Bai Lu's face like a passionate kiss. She became even more nervous. Even her voice was trembling. "… Mr. Liang, I-I can walk by myself."
"Don't you know that an ankle sprain can be serious?" Liang Feifan said to her in all seriousness, "Don't force yourself. Also, when I carry you like this, you have to put your arms around my neck."
Bai Lu's heart pounded wildly. It was as if she had been hypnotized. At this moment, she couldn't think about anything. When she heard that he wanted her to put her arms around his neck, her hands reached out uncontrollably. Then, she carefully wrapped them around his neck.
Her soft fingertips gently rested on the back of his neck. Liang Feifan only felt his body stiffen for a moment. It was as if something had suddenly exploded in his heart. But then he looked at Bai Lu in his arms. Her cheeks were red. She was clearly shy and seductive. He felt as if something unbelievably soft was injected into his body.
The elevator dinged. He carried her straight in.
Not far away, Xiang Longjin stood at the hospital's cashier. He watched as Liang Feifan carried Bai Lu into the elevator. The bill in his hands lightly fell to the ground, but he didn't notice.
Liang Feifan … Bai Lu …
They … they actually …
No wonder Liang Feifan was so obviously helping Bai Lu just now. He could even turn a blind eye to Jingxiao's matter. Could it be that he really had feelings for Bai Lu?
Xiang Longjin's usually gentle and handsome face was pale at this moment. His heart was pounding, as if something sour and spicy had been poured on it. It made him feel so uncomfortable that he could only quietly pinch his hands by his sides. He was so forceful that his nails dug into his palms, but he didn't feel any pain at all.
Liang Feifan carried Bai Lu all the way to the orthopedics department.
Because of his special status, the best orthopedic specialist in the hospital had specially come over to check on Bai Lu's ankle.
"Fortunately, it's not a big problem, but it's best that you rest for a few days. You shouldn't have moved when you sprained your ankle. You've been walking for a long time just now, right? Your bone is a little dislocated. I need to help you put a plaster cast on it. "
Before Bai Lu could speak, Liang Feifan beat her to it and said, "How many days do you need to rest?"
"Three or four days should be enough." The doctor wrote on the medical record book as he instructed, "Don't let your ankle come into contact with water for the next few days. It's best if you sit in a wheelchair and rest at home. After four days, you can come to the hospital to remove the plaster cast."
Bai Lu thought that this was too troublesome. She still had to go to work!
However, before she could say anything, Liang Feifan had already instructed the doctor to put a plaster cast on her ankle.
She knew that she couldn't say no. After all, her ankle was hers. If she really became a cripple, she would suffer a huge loss. Thus, she obediently cooperated.
After everything was settled, Liang Feifan personally wheeled her out. Bai Lu was already very embarrassed from the start. She finally couldn't hold it in anymore. Seeing that there was no one else in the corridor, she stammered, "Mr. Liang, thank you so much for today. You've helped me once again. Also, regarding Miss Liang, I actually wanted to talk to you about it. I … "
"Secretary Bai, how long have you been working at EC?" Liang Feifan suddenly interrupted her and asked, "Do you think you have a good understanding of the layout of EC's entire building?"
Bai Lu was stunned. After a moment, she instinctively nodded. "… It's been almost four years. I'm quite familiar with the layout and design."
Why did he ask this?
"Since you're familiar with it, don't you know that there are surveillance cameras in the reception room?" Liang Feifan didn't keep her in suspense and gave her the answer directly. "Before I came to the hospital, I received a call from Director Li. I went to look at the surveillance cameras. I know that you didn't push her down on purpose like Jingxiao said. So, you don't have to be so anxious. I, Liang Feifan, am not the kind of fatuous ruler who doesn't know what's right or wrong. Do you understand? "
Surveillance cameras. So there were surveillance cameras in the reception room. Bai Lu couldn't help but laugh.
No wonder Liang Feifan didn't question her at all. He already knew from the beginning that she didn't do it …
Bai Lu relaxed, but another thought popped up uncontrollably.
She didn't know if it was because of the subtle change in the atmosphere between the two of them, but she subconsciously relaxed. As soon as that thought flashed through her mind, she blurted out the rest of her words.
She turned to look at Liang Feifan. Her eyes were filled with anticipation as she asked crisply, "Mr. Liang, if you hadn't seen the surveillance cameras, would you still choose to believe me?"
Liang Feifan didn't expect her to suddenly ask such a question.
However, he was only stunned for a second. Soon, his thin lips curved, and he didn't answer. Instead, he asked, "Secretary Bai, do you choose to suffer in silence or explain yourself?"
Bai Lu blinked.
Liang Feifan said with a double meaning, "The answer you want to know lies in your own answer. Many times, when we want others to trust us unconditionally, the first step is to take the first step from ourselves. "
…?
Did he mean that as long as she explained herself, he would believe her?
Before Bai Lu could come up with an answer, Liang Feifan spoke again. "I've answered your question, but I have a question for you."
He walked around the wheelchair and stood directly in front of Bai Lu. He looked down at her condescendingly. "I've seen the surveillance cameras. I'm sorry, but I also heard your conversation with my sister. I've never wanted to interfere in the matters between the two of you, but this time, I want to ask. What happened to you two months ago that made you so nervous? Was it related to Jingxiao? I also want to know who that person was. "
Bai Lu widened her eyes and looked at Liang Feifan. "… Mr. Liang, what did you say?"
Of course, she was flustered. However, she quickly recalled the conversation she had with Liang Jingxiao in the reception room. She didn't involve too much. Only then did she secretly heave a sigh of relief. However, she still felt a little guilty and wanted to avoid this man's overly sharp gaze.
Liang Feifan could tell that she was avoiding his gaze. He was even more curious. What exactly happened two months ago?
"You heard my question clearly, didn't you?" He raised one brow and slowly put his hands into his trouser pockets. He smiled faintly. "Or does Secretary Bai think that this is your private matter and that I shouldn't interfere too much?"
Bai Lu's expression was a little forced.
She wasn't good at lying, especially in front of a man who had such a strong presence. It was undoubtedly difficult for her to lie.
Moreover, Liang Feifan had always treated her well. Previously, because of the checkup at the hospital, she already felt a little apologetic about her tone to him. Now, she couldn't use such an excuse to brush him off.
In the end, Bai Lu chose to avoid the main point and dwell on the trivial. "… Because of an accident two months ago, I suffered a little at the time. This problem hasn't been resolved until now, so I'm a little sensitive and nervous."
Liang Feifan narrowed his eyes. "Jingxiao knows?"
Bai Lu pondered seriously for a moment. Then, she raised her head and looked at Liang Feifan. She said very conservatively, "I don't know if Miss Liang knows or not. Maybe I was too nervous. That's why I didn't let go of her because of her unintentional words. I'm very sorry about that."
Liang Feifan listened attentively. "Yeah, I already know what you said."
As he nodded, he seemed to have thought of something. "Jingxiao is usually quite willful at home. Although I'm not very clear about what happened between you and her, I do know a thing or two. When it comes to matters of the heart, I won't comment, but I think your work ability is still very outstanding. I believe my judgment isn't that bad, so you don't have to think too much. Whatever I ask you to do, you can rest assured and boldly do it, okay? "
Bai Lu wasn't stupid. How could she not tell that Liang Feifan was simply using another method to comfort her?
She heard Liang Jingxiao telling her to leave EC. What he meant now was that he was telling her —
She was Liang Feifan's woman. She didn't have to worry about what Liang Jingxiao would say. She just had to be herself.
Bai Lu was moved. She bit her lip. A thousand words seemed to be stuck in her throat, but she realized that in the end, she only said the simplest four words. "Thank you, Mr. Liang."
"It's not good for you to see Buck now. You can ask him out in two days." Liang Feifan raised his wrist to look at the time. "I'll take you back now."
Bai Lu didn't dare to trouble him anymore. She hurriedly waved her small hand. "No, no, Mr. Liang, I can go back on my own …"
"It's getting late. Isn't your leg inconvenient? Don't tell me you still plan to drive like this? "
"I … I can call a taxi."
