When Xie Qingshi realized what he had done, his hand holding the other person's froze for a moment.

What is he doing?

Why would you apologize to someone who bumped into you?

His brows furrowed again, and just as Xie Qingshi felt the absurdity of his actions and was about to let go, he realized his mistake.

The girl beside him made a move; she sniffed, her low voice tinged with a slight sob of grievance.

"I'm fine. I just didn't see someone in front of me. I'm sorry, did I hurt you?"

As she spoke, Sang Huan turned her head, tilting her delicate, fair face slightly upward, trying to see the man in front of her clearly.

Just then, the girl's soft hair, tied in a high ponytail, moved slightly with her movements, brushing against the man's hand like a feather, bringing a tingling, itchy sensation.

Xie Qingshi also got a clear look at the girl's face.

Her round, peach-blossom eyes were clean and clear, and her fair, soft cheeks were still wet with tears, which dampened the stray hairs on her cheeks and made them stick together slightly.

A thin blush tinged the corners of her eyes and the tip of her nose, her pearly teeth gently biting her pink and delicate lips, and because her head was tilted back, her long and beautiful neck was exposed to him without reservation.

Xie Qingshi was 1.9 meters tall, more than half a head taller than the 1.68-meter-tall girl in front of him. Even without intending to look, his gaze involuntarily drifted down and fell upon that snow-white, soft expanse...

She was breathing heavily, her chest heaving as she ran so fast...

In an instant, the absurd thoughts that had arisen were completely wiped away by the shock of the scene before him. Xie Qingshi's mind went blank for a moment, and he even forgot to look away.

"Ring ring..."

The phone rang again, pulling Sang Huan back to reality. Noticing the phone and plastic bag on the ground, her expression changed, and she quickly pulled her hand back to pick them up.

In the midst of the frantic activity, 001 was "accidentally" exposed inside the plastic bag.

This scene happened to be seen by Xie Qingshi. His eyes darkened for a moment, and he silently bent down to help Sang Huan pick it up and hand it to her.

Sang Huan didn't notice his subtle expression. She took the phone and plastic bag he handed her and smiled gratefully at him.

"Thank you."

"It's alright. Would it be convenient to exchange contact information? Your injury was quite serious; do you need me to take you to the hospital?"

"No, no, it was my fault for bumping into you. I still have to deliver this order. Can we talk about it after I'm done?"

Sang Huan was in a hurry to deliver the order, so she directly refused the QR code he offered.

Upon hearing the word "order," the man's eyelashes trembled slightly, and his expression finally softened considerably.

"Which building? I'm quite familiar with this area. As an apology for earlier, I'll go and deliver it for you."

"Oh dear, wouldn't this be...?"

"Ring ring..."

The phone rang urgently, and Sang Huan had no choice but to swallow the rest of her words and quickly give the address.

Xie Qingshi told her to stand at the door for a while, then immediately turned around and rushed towards the location the other party had indicated.

Watching the other person's tall and imposing figure slowly disappear from his sight.

The anxiety and panic in Sang Huan's eyes faded, slowly replaced by a gentle smile.

She licked her slightly dry lips, her beautiful, moist peach blossom eyes filled with a smile.

The male protagonists in these small worlds are all so appealing...

When the other person helped her up, Sang Huan could see clearly that the man had long, slender fingers and neatly trimmed nails, especially his middle finger, which was very long and perfectly proportioned...

Her peach blossom eyes curved into crescent moons, making her unbelievably beautiful.

I can't wait!

-

Xie Qingshi moved quickly, and in less than five minutes he strode back.

Sang Huan reverted to her innocent and naive demeanor. She stood up and gave the approaching man a sweet smile.

"Thank you, kind sir."

"No need to thank me, my name is Xie Qingshi, you can just call me by my name."

"Xie Qingshi? That's a very nice name. My name is Sang Huan, you can just call me Huanhuan."

Seeing the genuine praise in the girl's eyes, Xie Qingshi's mood improved considerably because of the curve of her lips. He nodded, his dark eyes looking at the arm she was holding tightly.

"Your arm is badly injured, let's go to the hospital together."

"Oh, it's nothing. It was probably just an accident. It'll be fine after a while. Don't worry, Mr. Xie."

The girl quickly shook her head, embarrassed, and refused. She hadn't figured out that she had bumped into someone, so how could she trouble someone else to help her?

"You hit a joint, and if it's not treated properly, it could easily lead to future problems. Also, it's my responsibility that you were injured because I wasn't paying attention to the surroundings."

The man's long, narrow, dark phoenix eyes stared intently at her, his voice serious as he spoke.

This made Sang Huan even more embarrassed.

She licked her lips, realizing she couldn't bring herself to refuse, and could only nod in agreement.

And so, Xie Qingshi drove his car out of the underground parking garage and took Sang Huan to the nearest hospital.

As for Sang Huan's secondhand electric scooter, which was parked in the guardhouse, it was returned to the school by another errand runner called by Xie Qingshi.

The two remained quiet throughout the journey, exchanging only the occasional basic information.

After arriving at the hospital and undergoing a check-up, the doctor said it was just a minor bump and that all that was needed was more rest.

Xie Qingshi could keenly sense that the girl beside him had relaxed considerably.

He lowered his long eyelashes slightly, recalling what he had observed. In the end, he didn't say anything, but simply used the excuse of going to the restroom to turn around and settle the bill.

When he returned, he saw the girl looking down at the sheet with a somewhat worried expression.

Xie Qingshi paused, pretending not to see anything, stepped forward, raised his eyes, and spoke in a deep, gentle voice.

"Okay, I'll take them back to school first."

"Okay, wait for me a moment, I'll go pay the bill first."

"I've already settled the matter. This whole thing started because of me, so I should be responsible for it."

Xie Qingshi naturally picked up the small bag next to her. Sang Huan blinked her long eyelashes, her watery eyes somewhat dazed.

"Wouldn't this be inappropriate?"

The doctor who was helping to look at the prescription happened to be passing by with a thermos in his hand, and chuckled when he heard this.

"What's wrong with that? When you're in a relationship, you should spend more of your boyfriend's money. If you don't spend it, there are plenty of other people who would like to spend it for you."

One sentence made both of them blush, and Sang Huan quickly shook her head and waved her hands.

"I, we are not..."

"Hey, what's there to be shy about? It's just dating. If you're dating, just be open about it."
