Chapter 910: Chapter 910 Carry Back

"Really don’t need it?" Cheng Feiyang stood up, "Then I can leave."

After finishing his sentence, he really left with his umbrella.

Yang Xiaoxi glared at his retreating figure, then slowly got up holding her things. Her twisted ankle couldn’t bear weight, which forced her into a limping walk. She hadn’t taken more than a few steps when she lost balance and was about to fall, only to be caught by someone.

"Forget it, just consider this a rotten act of kindness from me."

Cheng Feiyang slightly bent down and carried Xiaoxi on his back. By the time Yang Xiaoxi came to her senses, she was already on his back.

"Hey, who said you could carry me? Put me down now."

Yang Xiaoxi struggled to get down.

Cheng Feiyang said, "If you keep squirming, I really will drop you. If your other foot gets injured, don’t expect me to care."

Yang Xiaoxi: "..."

Fearing she might really be dropped, Yang Xiaoxi dared not move anymore.

Seeing she had calmed down, Cheng Feiyang’s lips curved slightly, "Hold the umbrella, it’s inconvenient for me to do it with one hand."

So, Yang Xiaoxi held the grocery bags with one hand and obediently held the umbrella with the other.

Cheng Feiyang looked down at the assorted bags of vegetables and even some pork on his chest, his lips twitched in disdain, but he didn’t say a word.

He carried Yang Xiaoxi, taking one step at a time, leaving a trail of footprints in the snow that from afar looked like those of a sweet couple.

Shen Mianmian had waited for a while, figuring Yang Xiaoxi would be back by now, but when she saw no sign of her, she became worried and decided to go meet her. Just as she reached the door, she saw Cheng Feiyang carrying Yang Xiaoxi back.

Her first reaction was that something had happened to Xiaoxi; she hurried forward, concerned, "Xiaoxi, what happened to you?"

Yang Xiaoxi, her face flushed, was about to explain when Cheng Feiyang spoke first, "She fell while walking and twisted her ankle. I happened to come across her, so I brought her back."

Hearing it wasn’t serious, Shen Mianmian breathed a sigh of relief and quickly invited them inside. Cheng Feiyang carried Yang Xiaoxi back to her room and then stretched his shoulders.

"She doesn’t look heavy, but she isn’t light to carry."

Yang Xiaoxi snorted, remembering how he had just carried her, she didn’t retort.

Shen Mianmian examined Yang Xiaoxi’s foot which by now had swollen up.

Shen Mianmian fetched the first aid box and applied some anti-inflammatory cream to her foot, "It’s good it’s not fractured; otherwise, you’d really suffer."

"I must be jinxed! To have such trouble just walking," Yang Xiaoxi complained.

Cheng Feiyang, who had stayed, responded, "Walking in snow in foam-bottomed shoes, it’d be strange if you didn’t fall."

"What do you know?" Yang Xiaoxi snorted, "These foam-bottomed shoes are warm."

"But they get easily wet," Cheng Feiyang glanced at her shoes, "Look, aren’t they already wet?"

Without looking, Yang Xiaoxi knew her shoes were wet, but she didn’t want to agree with Cheng Feiyang, so she said, "My clothes are wet too, please leave, I need to change."

Cheng Feiyang retorted speechlessly, "Isn’t this just killing the donkey after grinding the wheat? I just carried you back and now you’re pushing people out."

"In the middle of the night, you’re not planning to stay for dinner, are you?" Yang Xiaoxi said irritably.

"I happen to be hungry, staying for a meal works for me." Cheng Feiyang didn’t know why, but seeing her looking so puffed up, he actually found it rather cute.

Yang Xiaoxi was quite irritated, yet Shen Mianmian said, "It’s cold. A bowl of noodles will warm things up, eat before you go! I’ll go cook some noodles."

Setting aside past grievances, inviting him for a bowl of noodles for bringing Yang Xiaoxi back didn’t seem excessive.
