Chapter Twenty-Three: Goodnight, My Little Mu Xing
ally over the past twelve years, it's no longer the hazy image she remembers, even the names of the streets are different.She stood blankly at the crossroads for a long time, and finally decided to as...While the two were chatting, He Chao had already finished his check. Holding a cotton swab, he disinfected Mu Xing's facial wounds and said in an excited tone:
"Soft tissue injury, no fracture. Apply a cold compress every 3 to 5 hours to reduce pain and swelling. After 24 hours, apply a warm compress and topical medication that promotes blood circulation to help dissipate bruising and swelling and promote tissue recovery.
"
These days, take more rest, less exercise, and elevate your legs when resting to promote venous return, which can help with recovery.
"Oh oh."
Mu Xing yiyi responded.
He Chao's movements were nimble, and he quickly finished treating all of Mu Xing's wounds. His little meat paws were also disinfected again, with medicine applied to his palms and bandages taped on.
"Mr. Fu, that's all."
Fu Lingxiao gave a faint "en" and then ordered, "These few days you stay here to take care of her."
"Okay, I'll get the ice pack ready."
He Chao exited the room, the joy on his face no longer able to be concealed.
At first glance, when he saw Mu Xing, he wasn't sure. After all, in this world, there are many people who look alike, and even more with the same name and surname.
Until just now, when he was checking Mu Xing's feet, he saw the pink birthmark on her sole and instantly confirmed that she was the little girl who used to follow him around all day as a child, calling him "Brother Chao."
Twelve years ago, the Mu family suffered a tragic fire that claimed the lives of all fourteen members.
The scene of the fourteen charred bodies being carried out is something he can never forget.
Now, the dead appeared before him alive and well. He was overjoyed, but also more puzzled, wondering what on earth was happening
At this time, Wu Guanjia carried the dishes upstairs. He Chao immediately put away his joy, politely nodded at Wu Guanjia, and walked downstairs.
Don't worry, he's staying here for the next few days. There will be plenty of opportunities to ask Mu Xing for clarification.
Wu Guanta walked into the room and respectfully said, "Young Master, dinner is ready. Little Mu Xing sprained her foot and can't come down, so I brought it to her."
"Butler, you're so kind to me!"
At the sight of food, Mu Xing's eyes instantly lit up.
Fu Lingxiao looked at the little girl's eyes shining with excitement, raised his lips, turned and walked out of the room to go back to wash.
Mu Xing had always kept those stones in mind. As soon as Fu Lingxiao left, she immediately said to Uncle Wu: "Uncle Wu, I dug a lot of stones and brought them back. They're all in my uncle's car. Could you please help me move them down Just put them somewhere for now."
"No problem, wait until you finish eating and I'll go get it."
Butler Wu smiled and passed the dishes to Mu Xing.
In the blink of an eye, all the dishes were devoured. Wu Guanjia had brought a generous amount of food. Mu Xing patted her round belly contentedly and let out a satisfied burp.
"Just lie still, I'll go get some rocks for you."
Wu, the butler, carried a tray of dishes downstairs. He helped the maids move a stone out of the car and into the storage room.
And then, holding Mu Xing's small backpack, she went back upstairs and asked Mu Xing, "Are all these stones jade"
"No, no. I don't recognize which one is jade, so I brought them all back. I plan to cut them all open and see."
Mu Xing took the small backpack and looked at Butler Wu with pleading eyes: "Butler Wu, could you please do me another favor I need a small stone cutting machine."
Uncle Wu pamperedly agreed, "Alright, I'll have someone buy it for you tomorrow."
Mu Xing beamed with joy: "Thank you, Butler!"
When He Chao arrived at Mu Xing's room again with an ice pack, Mu Xing was already asleep.
The whole person was sprawled out, sleeping in an awkward position. The blanket had been kicked off and hung halfway on the ground, but his right foot was very obediently propped up with a pillow as instructed by the doctor.
Ge Chao gently pulled up the quilt and covered Mu Xing, tucking in the corners.
Looking at that sweet sleeping face, a warm and gentle smile appeared on her elegant features.
"Good night, my little Mu Xing."
Ge Chao quietly turned off the lights and tiptoed out of the room, gently closing the door.
The next day.
Butler Wu was about to take the maid upstairs to help Mu Xing wash up.
The little girl, leaning on the railing, limped down the stairs.
"Oh my little darling!"
Butler Wu hurriedly went up to help her, "Didn't Dr. He say You should rest more and exercise less these days, how did you get up"
Mu Xing smiled: "Thank you, Butler. I'm much better now."
Actually, she was used to getting up early for her practice. Once it reached this time, if she didn't get up and move around, she would feel uncomfortable all over.
Downstairs, Mu Xing said, "Uncle Butler, I'll take a walk at the door. You go busy yourself, no need to help me."
Wu Guanta hesitated for a moment, then let go of his hand, "Then be careful yourself, and call me if anything happens."
Okay!
Mu Xing walked out of the villa at a leisurely pace, and just then saw the doctor who had treated her wounds last night walking towards her.
Dressed in a white tracksuit, with a clear and pleasant countenance. Her high nose was framed by silver-rimmed glasses, giving her an elegant and refined air.
He clearly had just come back from a morning run, with beads of sweat still on his forehead.
Approaching Mu Xing, he gave a slight smile. "Good morning," he said.
A smile, clean and warm.
Like the warm sunshine, it makes you feel very comfortable.
"Good morning."
Mu Xing responded with a sweet smile.
Yesterday, she hadn't looked closely at this doctor. Now, face-to-face, she clearly saw his features, those gentle eyebrows and eyes, giving her a feeling of familiarity as if from another life.
She suddenly remembered, the butler had just said, Dr. He...
His surname is He.
Childhood memories surfaced in my mind, and my heart beat uncontrollably.
In those crystal-clear eyes, waves of emotions surged.
There are surprises, unexpected events, and uncertainties...
He Chao gazed intently at Mu Xing, his warm voice laced with a deep smile: "My little Mu Xing finally recognizes me"
"Ah-chao brother…"
Mu Xing was incredibly incredulous, her voice laced with a hint of hesitation.
He gently rubbed her head, giving her an affirmative answer. "Yes."
It really is her A Chao older brother!
"Ah-Zaoge Gege!" Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
Mu Xing excitedly rushed up and directly bumped into his arms, her small meat paws tightly hugging He Chao.
"Ah Zhao gege! I miss you so much!"
He gently embraced Mu Xing, smiling softly: "I miss you too."
The two embraced briefly. HeChao released his embrace and looked at MuXing. While it was joyful to reunite, thinking back on the past events, his heart remained heavy.
"Back then, when the Mu family's house burned down, I thought you..."
Fearing he might bring up painful memories and upset Mu Xing, he paused for a moment before continuing, "Thankfully you're alright. Where have you been all these years Why didn't you contact me"
Mu Xing was about to answer when suddenly a sound of footsteps came from behind her.
The leather shoes stepped on the marble floor, steady and clear.
Those footsteps were simply too recognizable. Mu Xing immediately whispered, “Uncle’s here, let’s not talk about this for now.”nly to have a gun pressed against the back of his head as he walked through the passage.The moment the man behind him stepped out of the passage, Shen Lue and Pei Rang simultaneously exclaimed, "Maste...
