ne, onto solid ground, and was hit by the cold airport air. Only then did she startle awake and come to her senses.That man was simply detestable. He was a master at sweet-talking her, and ironically,..." Rong..." She was about to call his name, but then she realized something was wrong and hurriedly changed her words to, "Brother..."

That shout of "Brother" came out, not just from Lin Meng, even Rong Ling felt a strange feeling in her heart. After calling out once, she got used to it, it wasn't that difficult. She opened her mouth, looking at him with some delight.

"Brother, it turns out you haven't left yet!"

Rong Ling frowned, strode forward, and instantly arrived before her. He lowered his head and scrutinized her face harshly, asking coldly, "What's going on!"

At this moment, she looked pitiful. Her face, which Rong Ling loved dearly, had three or four scratches on it. Not only that, half of her left cheek was slightly swollen, with some terrifying purple medicine smeared on it. Seeing this, Rong Ling felt inexplicably annoyed!

The young boy beside him, upon seeing Rong Ling's appearance and asking a question, became a little afraid. This mature man's aura and majesty naturally pressed down on this fledgling kid, making him timidly watch Rong Ling's expression and sheepishly explain himself, then claiming that all of this was his fault and he would do everything he could to make amends.

It was just an accident. Although Rong Ling was angry, it was impossible for him to be petty and argue with a little boy. He just gave him a cold stare, which immediately shut the boy up. The boy had originally kicked the ball and hit someone, so he was very anxious. Later, seeing that he had hit the school flower, he immediately felt lucky and became very attentive, sending her to the hospital and then insisting on sending her back home. But it seemed like her family was very intimidating. Those cold eyes were truly terrifying. The boy lost his nerve and wished he could run away.

Before this young boy spoke at the entrance, Rong Ling had heard everything. As soon as he heard the voice of a young boy who was obviously still developing at the door, his heart turned cold. He thought to himself that this little woman was indeed capable. He had only said goodbye the night before last, and today she brought someone to his door. But seeing her like this, he knew he had been thinking too much.

The icy anger that flashed in his mind just a moment ago, he now thinks about it, feels somewhat unbelievable. Knowing that according to common sense, she should be in class at this time, with her temperament, it is even less likely that she would leave early without any reason. Now that it's not even two o'clock, she came back home, it must have been something else. Besides, he only said he was going in the afternoon, didn't say specifically what time, she couldn't be so foolish to come back with someone this early!

At that time, he was so irrational, it wasn't like him at all, which gave him a slight fright. But he still reached out and grabbed her shoulders, gently steadying her body.

"Take off your shoes!"

With outsiders present, he and she couldn't be too affectionate. However, there was absolutely no need to rely on that little boy's hand!

She used his strength to take off her shoes. Turning back, she apologized to the boy and Su Xue. "I really troubled you both just now. Now I'm home, so you can rest assured and go to class safely. At home, my brother will take care of me!"

Her original plan was to have the two of them send her home and then dismiss them. To be honest, if Rong Ling wasn't around, she would have been happy to invite Su Xue in for a chat. But now that Rong Ling is gone, she can only change her mind.

That guy was eager to leave, nodding immediately. He also said that if Lin Meng had any after-effects, he must tell him, and he would take full responsibility. This kind of bold and responsible personality is quite admirable. On the other hand, Su Xue smiled softly and, following Lin Meng's words, indicated that she was going back to school, not pushing back at all, nor showing any curiosity about Rong Ling.

Lin Meng thought for a moment, and hurriedly called back the two people who were about to leave. She strode into the kitchen and took out two bottles of pure juice from the refrigerator, forcefully shoving one bottle into each person's hand.

"It's hot outside, why not have some juice to quench your thirst Be careful not to get heatstroke!"

The two smiled and walked away.

Lin Meng closed the door, letting out a sigh of relief. Turning around, she saw Rong Ling standing there, smiling. He dragged his hand across his forehead and walked towards the bedroom.Rong Ling couldn't bear to see it, so he picked her up horizontally and carried her into the bedroom before placing her gently on the bed.

"A headache!" His eyebrows knitted slightly in concern, clearly caring about her.

She softly hummed in response, afraid he'd be worried, and added, "It doesn't hurt that much, really."

His brows furrowed even tighter, and he couldn't help but rebuke in a harsh voice. "How could you be so careless!"

She stuck out her tongue innocently and replied, "I didn't mean to do it! The ball just rolled over here, I couldn't get out of the way!"

It's possible that her facial expressions suddenly became a bit exaggerated, with forceful movements pulling at the muscles on her face. She couldn't help but let out a small "Ugh" sound, furrowed her brow, and reached out with her little hand to touch her left cheek, only to be stopped by him before she could make contact.

"Don't move!" Her hands could have all sorts of bacteria, and her facial wound isn't something you can just touch!

"What did the doctor say!" The little boy's words were mumbled and unclear. Rong Ling didn't believe him either, so he had to hear Lin Meng explain it himself.

"The doctor said it was nothing, just a mild concussion, and told me to rest for a day. Actually, I'm really fine!" She still didn't tell him because she was afraid he'd worry, but her head actually still hurt a little, like something was twitching inside.

"What about the wounds on your face!" he pressed.

"Just put some medicine on it, and you'll be fine!" she replied dismissively.

Rong Ling's eyebrows twitched tightly, blaming it all on that unknown doctor. She felt that the doctor was probably too perfunctory and didn't explain the condition clearly. Besides, concussion could be mild or severe, and it wasn't just any doctor who said "mild" that it became "mild".

"Which hospital are you going to!"

Lin Meng reported her name.

Rong Ling narrowed her eyes, unfamiliar with the name. This suggested it was a small hospital that hadn't made a mark. She felt uneasy. Thus, she lowered her head and commanded forcefully, "Come on, I'll take you to Ming Guang and investigate further!"

Mental matters shouldn't be taken lightly, and we must avoid any after-effects. She's a bit slow to begin with, and if anything else happens, it'll be disastrous!

She frowned, not really wanting to move. "It's not necessary, the doctor said it was nothing!"

"No, I don't trust small hospitals. It's best to go to a big hospital for a proper check-up. This might not be just a common cold."

She knew he cared about her, and it warmed her heart. However, she didn't want to burden him or make things too difficult for him. Besides, wasn't he supposed to be going abroad Thinking about this, she felt a pang of worry.

What time is your flight!

Rong Ling was stunned. He hadn't even considered this before! Looking at his watch, he had a maximum of ten minutes left there, otherwise, he would miss his flight. He came back to pack a few sets of clothes and go on the road, but he didn't expect to run into her coming back so coincidentally.

Lin Meng saw his demeanor and knew he had to leave. He reached out and gently pushed him. "Don't miss your flight, that's important business, go quickly. I'm fine, really!"

Having said that, enduring a face full of pain, she forced a radiant smile at him. But this smile, coupled with half her face covered in purple medicine, was rather unsightly. His lips instantly pursed together, his face darkened, and the space between his brows unconsciously tightened into a small "川" shape.

Lin Meng was a little anxious and annoyed, feeling like she might have held him back. The hand under the thin blanket tightened and loosened again. She had an idea, pretended to be sleepy by slightly squinting her eyes, lowering her voice, softening it, and mumbling a little vaguely: "Hmm, we walked for so long, I'm tired, I want to sleep. Hmm, Rong Ling, I won't see you off. Be careful on the road and take good care of yourself outside. I'll wait for you to come back."

Then, she narrowed her eyes and pretended to sleep. She thought to herself that she had said everything she needed to say and made it clear there was nothing major. His flight was still there; seeing her asleep, he would definitely leave.

As expected, she felt him get up and walk out. She let out a sigh of relief at once, though her heart ached with reluctance. Still, she was glad that she hadn't burdened him because of herself. But it seemed like less than a minute had passed when she clearly felt someone sitting beside her again. She felt a surge of anxiety and immediately guessed it must be Rong Ling! She could only hypnotize herself to remain calm, calm and pretend to sleep!

"Wake up!" His voice was low and rich.

She pretended to be asleep so she wouldn't hear, opting for ignorance.

"Don't pretend, I know you haven't slept, get up!" His insight was truly sharp and astonishing. When he said that, she really couldn't keep up the pretense anymore. But she was afraid he was testing her, so she could only hold her breath and continue acting.

"If you don't get up, I'm going to jump on you!" He threatened, and it seemed like he meant it!

She was so frightened that she suddenly opened her eyes wide.

He let out a cold laugh, threw back the covers, and pulled her up. She had nowhere to hide.

"Why are you still here!" she exclaimed, exasperated.

He suddenly darkened his face, was she trying to drive him away! He couldn't help but shout angrily. “My business, none of your concern!”

Her heart skipped a beat. For a moment, it felt as if it were being squeezed, and she struggled to breathe.

"Sorry!" she whispered, bowing her head. She knew she shouldn't have gone too far, but maybe things had been going too smoothly these past few days, and she'd gotten carried away with herself.

He frowned, seeing her like this, wanting to explain something, but... he swallowed it back.

I had someone else go for me. Come on, I'll take you to the hospital!

She let out a soft "Oh," and seeing him walk away, she helplessly followed. But this sudden change from hot to cold left her eyes red, blurry for a moment before quietly tears welled up. Deep in her heart, she felt an overwhelming sense of injustice. Actually, she was doing fine. Actually, he really didn't have to be like this. If she had known it would turn out this way, she would rather have stayed in the hospital a few more hours than come back and meet him, burdening him!

Tears, sliding swiftly across her cheeks, she quickly reached out to wipe them away, afraid he might see, only inviting embarrassment and ridicule. He, however, abruptly turned around, and just like that, saw everything.

"Why are you crying!" He suddenly raised his voice, gruff and impatient, his irritation evident in every word.

"I'm sorry!" she suddenly turned around, apologizing in a low voice. But the tears that slipped down her cheeks in haste showed that all her previous attempts to hide them had been utterly useless!

Her back was to him, so petite, that it made her appear fragile, as if she could be broken with little effort. Recalling the tear that had inadvertently caught his eye just now, his heart felt a sharp pang, as if pierced by something inexplicable...it hurt.

With a deep frown, he clenched his jaw and strode two steps closer to her. He forcibly turned her around to face him. Seeing her cover her eyes with her hand and desperately trying to hold back tears, he softened his tone involuntarily.

"Are you getting a headache!"

I reached out and gently touched her head, softening my voice again and coaxing, "Don't cry, I'll take you to the doctor right now. Just bear with it, you'll be fine after seeing the doctor!"

In her heart, she cursed the unnamed doctor from before to death. That's it! The doctor still dared to say there was nothing wrong with him. Didn't he see that she was crying in pain! He thought she was crying entirely because of a headache!

The more gentle his voice became, the better he treated her, the more it hurt her, the more she felt wronged, and tears streamed down her face.

He was so angry that he wished he could immediately send someone to destroy that small hospital.

Helplessly, I squatted down and hugged her. With one hand, I gently pulled away her small hand wiping her tears and softly coaxed, "Good girl, don't cry. Tell me, where does it hurt Let me rub it for you..."

She shook her head, her heart aching. She wanted to say, her heart was hurting, could he rub it for her! Could he!

The sparkling teardrops were almost washing away the purple ointment from half of her face, making the swelling even more prominent. It was truly frightening to look at, causing one's heart to skip a beat. Upon seeing this, he couldn't stand it anymore. Gritting his teeth, he lost his composure and scooped her up in his arms, heading out.

"Where are you going!" she asked, tears streaming down her face.

"Go to the hospital!" he said angrily, almost growling at her.

"No!" she struggled, burying her face in his shoulder and sobbing loudly. "I'm fine, I don't want to go to the hospital, leave, just leave me alone, please, go, go away!"

Saying that, she reached out and shoved him!

Although she was small, she had some strength. At this time, she struggled regardless and actually made it hard for him to control her.

"Be good!" he couldn't help but pat her butt, growling.

She was startled and felt even more wronged. She cried out suddenly, her sobs becoming even more heartbreaking.

"Let me down, I don't want you to...don't want you to...let me down...don't want you to..."

He could bear it no longer, his heart churning with anger. He suddenly pushed her away, slamming her against the wall and pinning her there. A fist flew out, crashing into the wall beside her ear with a sickening thud. The impact shook the very wall, sending shivers down her spine. His eyes were cold and cruel as he glared at her, his voice a menacing growl barely suppressed by gritted teeth.

"Lin Meng, you told me to leave you alone, how can I possibly do that! Tell me, how can I just leave you be!"

His eyes widened, his lips pressed into a near-straight line! His sharp features were tense, as if he was fiercely restraining something!

She choked back a sob, tears welling up in her eyes. Her eyes widened as she stared at him.

For a moment, the two stared at each other in silence.

He was the one who calmed down first, afraid that his outburst just now would scare her. He immediately retracted his fists, walked over and gently kissed her little mouth, murmuring in a low voice, "Be good, I know your head hurts, but bear with it, okay!"

What else could she say! She could only nod dumbly, the tears welling up in her eyes falling down her cheeks because of gravity.

He couldn't help but mutter, "Damn doctor!" He was a little resentful.

Once again, the blame was placed on that doctor!

Then, he reached out and embraced her. This time, she was unusually docile, clinging to his neck with her head resting against his shoulder, not uttering a single sound.

He went downstairs and drove directly to the underground parking lot, putting her in the passenger seat and returning to the driver's seat himself. As he fastened her seat belt, he said softly, "If your headache gets really bad, tell me. Don't ever do anything stupid. Accidents happen most easily when you're driving." He was afraid that she would get a headache and start crying uncontrollably again as before, which could easily cause an accident.

She nodded, still silent. Her quietness was a bit too much, making him worry and look at her several times more. He didn't know, however, that it was because of guilt.

Mingguang Hospital wasn't far, and after about forty minutes, they arrived. He treated her like a delicate porcelain doll, scooping her up without hesitation. She mumbled that she didn't need to be carried, but he ignored her completely, striding away with her in his arms.

"If you feel embarrassed, just hide your face!" He understood her well enough to give such an instruction.

She listened, and sure enough, she stopped fidgeting on him. She just buried her face against his chest.

Gone, and was immediately greeted by an expert. After all, Rong Ling's status is special. Privileges, sometimes it just feels good!

It was another day of filming and checks, and finally, an expert in his fifties gave his conclusion.

It's a mild concussion, go back and rest for a few days, think less, and rest more!

Rong Ling still held Lin Meng in his arms. Hearing this so-called "expert" give such a diagnosis, he couldn't help but raise an eyebrow, as if someone owed him millions. His face was still gloomy.

It's nothing major really! She had a terrible headache before and her emotions were also very volatile!

If this was suspected, the expert would immediately become unhappy and instinctively want to retort. But seeing Rong Ling's cold face and menacing eyes, he immediately felt a tightness in his chest, straightened his body, and hastily swallowed back the words he was about to say. After all, this was a VIP who had been specifically instructed by the director to be treated well; he couldn't just offend him casually. The expert went through several thoughts in his mind, raised a friendly smile, and said: "If you are not at ease, let her stay here for one night and observe. If nothing happens, she can be discharged tomorrow."

This suggestion is still acceptable. After clenching her cold lips, she nodded slightly.

Thus, he ended up in the intensive care unit.

Seeing Ling's gloomy face and the frown that kept creasing his brow, Lin Meng didn't dare say anything. He followed all of his arrangements!

"Your head still hurting" He sat beside the bed, reaching out to gently stroke her head.

She shook her head, her big black eyes looking at him innocently.

His furrowed brow relaxed slightly, and he whispered, "If you feel uncomfortable, just tell me!"

She hummed in response, but said nothing more.

It was still too quiet, which caused Rong Ling to raise an eyebrow.

But she inadvertently caught a glimpse of red, and froze. Reaching out, she grasped Rong Ling's hand that was caressing her head. Squinting, she saw dark bloodstains on the inside of his palm, stinging her eyes. She suddenly remembered, this might be the injury he sustained from smashing the wall before.

"I'm bleeding!" she muttered softly, her delicate willow eyebrows furrowed.

He glanced at it casually, not paying attention. "It's nothing, don't worry about it!"

She widened her eyes, how could she not care! She grabbed his palm, brought it to her mouth, and stuck out her pink tongue, starting to lick it repeatedly!

He let out a soft gasp, startled, his hand trembling slightly. To see her licking like a little dog, half-closed eyes, so devoutly… his gloomy face instantly softened, taking on a hint of warmth.

"Don't do that!"

Saying she was going to pull her hand back, she stubbornly held on, slightly raising her eyes to glare at him as if warning him not to move. Then she continued to lower her eyes, carefully licking him, disinfecting him with her saliva.

His heart softened, and he didn't argue with her. He let her struggle in vain. But as he watched that soft tongue slide across his hand time and again, leaving a wet, soft touch, a smile appeared on his face, and he felt the pressure in his heart suddenly lessen considerably.

"You've gotta be kidding me!" he chuckled, teasingly. He reached out with his other hand and gently stroked her tiny head.

She glared at him again upon hearing this, feigning indignation. But her delicate pink tongue still diligently licked the wound until it was clean, even a faint crimson thread of blood emerging, before she finally released it. She then frowned seriously and commanded him, "You need to apply medicine!"

He smiled faintly. Actually, it was just a minor scratch that wouldn't even be considered an injury. In his eyes, it wasn't anything to worry about; it would heal on its own. But she was the patient, so he could only helplessly follow her wishes and find a nurse to apply a bandage to it. Looking at that ridiculous little bandage, he couldn't help but raise an eyebrow. If his old comrades knew that he, a man who could ignore even a cut leg in the past, would apply a bandage for such a minor "injury" today, they would surely laugh their heads off!

Things really do change!

"That's it!" He shook his hand, the one he was forced to accept "treatment" for, and showed her. Then in a soft voice he said, "Go to sleep quickly, you weren't saying you were tired just now!"

She suddenly lowered her eyes, grabbed the blanket, and covered her head with it.

He frowned, reaching out to pull the blanket away. Didn't she want to live

As soon as his hand reached for the corner, two snow-white hands shot out and grabbed him, yanking him into the bed.

He was stunned, but he felt his hand being held and pressed against her face. Then something warm slid slowly over his hand.

"Rong Ling, don't be too good to me!" Otherwise, she was afraid she would become addicted, she would…

A muffled voice, accompanied by sniffles, came from under the covers.

He lowered his eyes, his expression unreadable. After a moment of silence, he lifted the blanket and pulled out his hand, carefully wiping away her tears from her face. He let out a soft sigh. "Silly girl, go to sleep!"

She closed her eyes and didn't say another word. He sat there, watching her for a while. When he felt she was truly asleep, he got up and went outside to make a few phone calls.ttle boy still asked Lin Meng first."Mommy, what did you have your eye on!"How could Lin Meng possibly take credit for a child's accomplishment She smiled and shook her head. "Yoyo, pick something you...
