Into the Night, Jiao Jiao Gets Kissed by a Business Tycoon

Chapter 38: Chapter 38: Sprain



Xinan was amused by the two of them. Although they were always bickering when they were together, it was all just minor spats, and Xinan quite envied their way of getting along.

Xinan and Jiang Yurou walked side by side ahead, while Tan Bo and Cheng Yi followed behind them.

"Rourou, don't you get tired of arguing with Tan Bo every day?"

"Do you think I want to argue with him? It's all because that darn Tan Bo always annoys me. I thought after not seeing each other for so long, he would cut me some slack, but it only took a few days before things went back to the way they were," Jiang Yurou continued, "Really, men..."

Hearing Jiang Yurou's words, Tan Bo couldn't help but speak up, "Jiang Yurou, is this how you always talk about me when you're out?"

Caught bad-mouthing him, Jiang Yurou shrugged her shoulders, feigning innocence, "What do you mean 'talk about you'?"

Tan Bo couldn't help but laugh in exasperation, "Miss Jiang, haven't I been letting you have your way? Heartfeltly say, have I not been good to you?"

"It's because you're always picking on me..." Jiang Yurou's voice got softer and less confident; after all, Tan Bo really was good to her.

"What an ungrateful wretch."

"Tan Bo, what did you say?" Jiang Yurou said, outraged.

"Hmm, what did you hear?" Tan Bo asked back as if he didn't know, a trace of a smile on his face.

Jiang Yurou stomped her foot and glared at him, anger clear in her eyes, "Dead Tan Bo, don't play dumb; I heard it all."

"Oh? So, you agree that you're the ungrateful wretch?" Tan Bo purposely moved a bit closer.

"Tan Bo!!!" Jiang Yurou was truly provoked now. She reached out to hit him, but he dodged.

It would've been better had he not dodged, but his evasion only made Jiang Yurou angrier.

Tan Bo saw that things were taking a turn for the worse and started to run.

Jiang Yurou chased after him, and Tan Bo ran even faster, with Jiang Yurou yelling from behind, "Tan Bo, stop right there! If you're brave, don't run!"

The two of them ran far ahead, one after the other.

Finally running out of breath, Jiang Yurou stopped and began panting heavily, and Tan Bo, who was tired as well, also came to a halt.

Bent over with his hands on his knees, Tan Bo looked up at Cheng Yi, "When she comes over, you've got to block her for me; she's really out of control."

Tan Bo didn't even want to imagine what it would be like if he fell into Jiang Yurou's hands, after all, her eight years of training in Sanda weren't for play.

Cheng Yi gave him a cold look and said icily, "So, you two are having a running race tonight? Should I set up a ring for you to compete in?"

Really cold-blooded!

Left with no other choice, Tan Bo had to pin his hopes on Xinan.

After receiving Tan Bo's "SOS" signal, Xinan hesitated for a moment. To help or not to help? On one side was her best friend since childhood, and on the other was a brother who had always been kind to her.

After some thought, Xinan decided not to help either. It was Tan Bo's mouth that was always getting him into trouble; he deserved to suffer a bit.

Jiang Yurou shouted, "Tan Bo, stop looking. Nannan won't help you. Are you coming over yourself, or shall I come get you?"

"Don't move, let's both take a break first."

"You tell me not to move, and I should just listen? Why should I!"

After saying that, Jiang Yurou swiftly ran towards Tan Bo, who hurriedly sprinted behind Xinan.

Jiang Yurou tried to grab him, but then tragedy struck.

Because Tan Bo was always behind her, Xinan only paid attention to them and didn't notice there was a step in front of her.

By the time she realized, it was too late. Wearing high heels, she twisted her ankle, and her whole body leaned forward and fell.

"Ah!" She let out a cry of alarm.

Tan Bo, being the closest, instinctively reached out to grab her but caught nothing. He could only watch helplessly as Xinan fell to the ground.

"Xinan, are you okay?" Tan Bo hurriedly went forward to check on Xinan's condition, but before he could reach out, he was pushed away by a force.

Tan Bo staggered and almost fell, knowing you cared about Xinan, but there was no need to use so much strength.

Jiang Yurou had just walked over when she saw Cheng Yi's face darken, which frightened her into silence, standing aside, not daring to step forward.

"Are you two still children?"

Tan Bo and Jiang Yurou had their flames considerably doused.

After saying that, Cheng Yi knelt down and took off Xinan's high heels.

"Ouch, that hurts." As soon as Cheng Yi's hand touched Xinan's ankle, she sucked in a few breaths of cold air in pain.

Cheng Yi frowned slightly, "Can you walk?"

Seeing that Xinan didn't speak, Cheng Yi sighed and turned around, "Come on, I'll carry you."

"No need... I can do it myself..."

But Cheng Yi ignored her rejection, bent down, and picked Xinan up from the ground. "Tan Bo, go start the car."

"Oh, okay."

Xinan was frightened by his sudden action. She wanted to struggle, but as soon as she moved, Cheng Yi said sharply, "Don't move!"

Xinan immediately behaved.

"Nannan, just let Brother Yi carry you," said Jiang Yurou, following beside them. She really felt very guilty now, for if it hadn't been for her and Tan Bo, Xinan wouldn't have sprained her ankle.

"Okay."

Cheng Yi's embrace was very warm, and the faint scent on his body filled her nostrils, irresistibly inviting her to indulge...

An unusual feeling welled up inside Xinan's heart.

Tan Bo was quick, and by the time they made it over, he had already pulled the car up to the side of the road.

Jiang Yurou sat in the passenger seat, while Xinan and Cheng Yi sat in the back seat.

"Go to the nearest hospital," Cheng Yi told Tan Bo.

Tan Bo acknowledged with a yes, pressed the gas pedal, and the car sped forward.

Jiang Yurou turned her head to Xinan and said, "Nannan, I'm so sorry. It's all my and Tan Bo's fault, otherwise you wouldn't have got a sprain."

Xinan shook her head, "I'm okay, Rourou."

"Next time, you should stay farther away from me and Tan Bo."

Xinan hadn't expected that Jiang Yurou and Tan Bo's issues would drag her into this. In the end, the two of them were unscathed, while she, a mere spectator, had gotten injured.

Her luck was truly extraordinary.

As it was already night, there weren't many people in the hospital, and the family members walking back and forth all had rushed expressions.

When the doctor examined Xinan's injury, her foot had already swollen like a pig's trotter. After hearing how she sprained it, the doctor knitted his eyebrows, "I've prescribed you some anti-inflammatory and blood-activating medication. Apply the ointment twice a day, and follow it with a hot compress after the massage."

Xinan: "Okay, thank you, Doctor."

"Hm, who will go get the medication?" the doctor looked around at the people present.

"I'll go," Tan Bo offered proactively.

The doctor handed the prescription to him.

After getting the medication, Cheng Yi carried Xinan out of the hospital again. As the instigator of this incident, it was only right to play the role of driver and take them all home.

This time, he truly did not complain at all, especially when he saw Xinan's ankle, which had swelled beyond recognition.
