Chapter 171 Deliberate Arrangement
She walked into the room carrying a basin of warm water, and saw Wu Xu leaning on the bed with a book in his hand. He looked gentle and elegant, which made people happy.
Ran He just took a quick look and put the basin on the chair next to him.
"You've been sweating a lot today, so I got some hot water to help you wipe yourself. You should have some spare clothes in your luggage, right? Bring them here and I'll help you change."
There was indeed a package on the cart, but Ran He did not take a close look at what was inside. After all, it was Wu Xu's personal belongings, and she could not rummage through it without permission.
Under the candlelight, Wu Xu's eyes were fixed on her, as if he could see through the slight panic beneath her pretense of calmness.
On a whim, a hint of teasing flashed in Wu Xu's eyes. He gently put the book aside and motioned Ran He to help him wipe it.
Ran He's throat tightened. He said it easily, but seemed a little at a loss when it came to actual practice.
He's just a man, she encouraged herself in her heart!
She suddenly pulled open Wu Xu's collar, and in an instant, the criss-crossing scars on his chest jumped into her eyes, making her heart tighten and breathing become difficult.
These scars silently tell us that Wu Xu's past was anything but ordinary. Just this scar is enough to prove that his experience is far beyond that of an ordinary bodyguard.
Ran He quickly suppressed his surprised expression, and his eyes moved away after a light glance. The handkerchief in his hand quickly swept over Wu Xu's body, even carefully not letting go of his hands.
"Okay, you can change now. Do you need my help?"
As soon as she finished speaking, Ran He regretted it. Wiping only covered a small area, but helping someone change clothes was completely exposing herself, which made her feel extremely embarrassed.
But the words have been spoken, and regretting them would only seem hypocritical.
"No, just go and look after the kids. I can handle it myself."
Although Wu Xu was toying with the idea of teasing Ran He, they had not been in close contact for a long time. The sudden intimacy might make Ran He feel uncomfortable, which would not be conducive to his exploration of her secrets.
Ran He nodded in agreement, poured out the water, and then went to check on the child.
Since the renovation of the other room began, she had let the two brothers share a bedroom.
Now, the two bunk beds have been built and each child has his or her own bed.
She wondered if they were afraid of sleeping alone. Although her room was spacious, it would be too crowded for a family of four to sleep together.
"Babies, are you scared to sleep alone?"
Ran He asked gently.
Xiaobao seemed startled by the question and quickly hid under the quilt.
Dabao tried hard to pretend to be calm. Ran He knew at a glance that the two little guys must be plotting something in private again, otherwise why would they be so guilty.
"What are you talking about behind my back?"
Ran He pinched Dabao's little nose lovingly.
Dabao quickly covered his mouth and said vaguely: "No, no, I'm just telling a story to Xiaobao."
Even though they tried their best to deny it, Ran He didn't take it to heart. After helping them pull up the quilt, he began to tell them a bedtime story to help them fall asleep.
Boys should not be over-pampered, but if they have just been separated from each other, they might have difficulty sleeping at night and have nightmares, so she developed the habit of telling stories.
As the story gradually came to an end, the children's breathing became calm and they fell asleep.
Ran He closed the book and quietly left the room.
In the dead of night, Xiaobao whispered to Dabao in his bed: "Dabao, can mom and dad reconcile?"
"I think it's OK. Without us, they will definitely have a lot to talk about."
Dabao thought as he spoke, with a helpless but relieved smile on his face.
This story started on that bright afternoon a few days ago. At that time, he and his younger brother Xiaobao went to find playmates in the village with great anticipation, but they did not expect that those kids' words were somewhat sarcastic and harsh. They bluntly said that his father was seriously injured while escorting a caravan and became disabled, and his mother would sooner or later not be able to endure such a life and might choose to leave the family one day. At that time, the two brothers would be forced to make a choice and would no longer be able to live a warm life with their parents as usual.
Dabao was older and could barely swallow the humiliation, but Xiaobao's young heart could not bear such stimulation. Tears immediately filled his eyes and he clenched his fists, almost wanting to compete with others.
Thanks to Dabao's quick eyes and hands, who hugged Xiaobao, an unnecessary conflict was avoided.
When they got home, night had already fallen quietly. The two brothers sat on the doorstep, looked at the starry sky, and had a good discussion.
A plan emerged in their minds, which was to find ways to warm up the relationship between their parents. If one day their mother really didn't want to take care of their father anymore, they would step forward and do their best to share the housework or anything else.
Their little faces are filled with determination, which is the innocence and courage of children.
At this moment, Ran He was busy in the kitchen and had no idea what the two brothers were thinking.
If she knew about this, she would probably just smile bitterly. The world of children is always so simple and innocent, which makes people feel both distressed and relieved.
Ran He gently pushed open the wooden door of the kitchen and walked into the familiar and homely space. She first simply rinsed her mouth, and the cool water moistened her dry lips, bringing a hint of relief.
Then, she took out a small bottle of lotion from the cupboard and gently rubbed it on her hands, which were a little rough from days of hard work. She secretly sighed in her heart that she was so busy these days that even taking care of herself became a luxury. But if she didn't love herself more, how could she have the strength to continue to support this family?
And just as she was immersed in a moment of quiet self-care, Yan Qin slipped into the bedroom like a silent shadow, changed Wu Xu's dusty clothes, and reported the news he had obtained.
"Mo Changfeng and his team kept their actions extremely secret. They came to Pingyang Town temporarily because their old illness relapsed on the road and they needed to find a place to recuperate. Their meeting with Ran He was purely accidental and was not deliberately arranged by anyone."
When Wu Xu heard this, the heavy stone in his heart finally fell to the ground.
It turned out that the famous Mo Changfeng was just passing by.
However, this just happened to prove his good luck - he sought out countless famous doctors in the capital, but was finally cured by an unknown Ran He. If it wasn't for God's blessing, how could such a miracle have happened?
As for Ran He's medical skills, Yan Qin continued, "I heard that there is a forgotten mute widow doctor in Fulin Village. The villagers avoid her, but Ran He often goes up the mountain to dig wild vegetables and takes the initiative to talk to her. Maybe Ran He learned her medical skills from this mute widow."
Ran He never dreamed that those few simple greetings to the lonely mute old woman would become the key to unlocking the mystery of his medical skills.
