It's terrible. Mr. Lu is too clingy.

With a bang, the teacup in Xie Xingran's hand fell to the ground.

The teacup was made of iron and did not break, but all the tea spilled onto her legs, soaking them.

Grandma Chen exclaimed, and quickly took a handkerchief to wipe the tea leaves off her legs, "Don't worry, Xiaoxing, it should be fine."

But Xie Xingran didn't care about that. He stood up and ran out of the yard, "Zixuan, quickly lead the way for Auntie."

At this moment, her heart was in her throat, and she wished she could fly to Lu Ciye immediately.

Aunt Chen, who had reacted, told Grandma Chen that she was at home, and then she ran after her and comforted her:

"Where is the cliff in our village? Zixuan is probably exaggerating. You know how this kid is, he can say anything."

Hearing this, Xie Xingran's worries eased a little.

Yes, there are no cliffs near these villages. Even if there were, Lu Ci would never take Zixuan to such a dangerous place.

Zixuan was unconvinced and said, "I'm not exaggerating. My uncle said the same thing."

Xie Xingran: "What did your uncle say exactly? Where are you going?"

Zixuan: "My uncle said that my aunt has been unhappy these days. When a girl is unhappy, she should be given flowers. My uncle also said that the flowers growing on the cliff are the most beautiful. He wants to pick them and give them to my aunt to prove that he loves her the most.

Then the ridge of the field collapsed, and my uncle fell off the cliff. I wanted to save him, but he told me to go find my aunt to save him. I also heard my uncle say that my aunt would definitely feel sorry for him if she saw him.

Xie Xingran: ...There are so many things to complain about that I don’t know what to say first.

It rained these past two days, and the soil on the ridge of the field must have been soaked and loosened by the rain. It is understandable that a grown man like him could not bear the weight of the soil when he stood on it, and it collapsed.

Despite this, Lu Ci really fell down, and Xie Xingran couldn't help feeling worried.

Five minutes later, they arrived at the cliff that Zixuan mentioned.

Judging from the uncollapsed ridge next to it, it is indeed quite high, about three or four meters.

Fortunately, there were no rocks falling around.

Lu Ci was also sitting in the mud, with many parts of his body covered in dirt, but the flowers in his arms were still clean in his hands.

He noticed the arrival of several people out of the corner of his eye. He turned his head and his eyes instantly stopped on Xie Xingran, and he smiled.

"Honey, you're here?" He asked, as if to take credit. "Look, aren't these flowers I picked beautiful? They're for you."

Although it is autumn, there are still various wild flowers, purple, yellow, white and blue mixed together, which is very beautiful.

Xie Xingran couldn't focus on the flowers anymore. She walked over to him, squatted down, and said worriedly:

"Is your leg injured somewhere?" Otherwise he wouldn't just sit on the ground like that.

Seeing her caring look, Lu Ciye's eyes suddenly turned red, and he began to sniff, saying pitifully:

"Well, I twisted my left foot, honey, it hurts."

Xie Xingran lifted up his trouser leg and saw that there was indeed a large red and swollen area.

She handed the flowers to Zixuan and said, "Let me help you up and go to the hospital."

Aunt Chen found a stick from somewhere and said, "It will be easier to walk with this."

"Thank you, Auntie. I'm sorry for bothering you." Lu Ci also lowered his head and said embarrassedly, "It's all my fault. I ran out on a rainy day and made you worry."

Aunt Chen: "I'm glad to know. Why are you running around on a rainy day? Zixuan just said you fell off a cliff, and Xiaoxing was scared. She even spilled her tea. I wonder if she got burned?"

"Ah?" Lu Ci also looked anxiously at the person beside him: "Wife, are you okay?"

Xie Xingran shook his head, unwilling to say more: "It's okay, the tea is not hot anymore."

Lu Ci also scratched his head and said, "I didn't say I fell off a cliff. Falling off a cliff is terrible."

Xie Xingran glared at him angrily:

"If you hadn't said that the flowers on the cliff are the most beautiful, would Zixuan have misunderstood?"

He suddenly realized and exclaimed, remembering that he had said this.

I didn't expect it to be misrepresented like this.

I came to Grandma Chen's house on an electric bike, and now I'm riding to the hospital.

When he left, Lu Ci was still thinking about the flowers he picked, and reminded him:

"Zixuan, I'm leaving my brother's flowers in your care. Don't miss a single petal. I'll give them to your aunt when I come back."

Zixuan nodded seriously, "Don't worry, big brother. I will definitely keep it for you."

Lu Ciye: "Thanks, little brother. I'll buy you some candy when I get back."

Zixuan: "Brother, I want strawberry flavor."

Lu Ciye: "No problem, remember to take good care of my flowers..."

Xie Xingran couldn't stand it anymore and drove away.

On the way, the person behind her habitually pinched her belly, looking happy, and told her that since she was injured, she could take a few more days off, which was a blessing in disguise.

Lu Ci also had beautiful thoughts, but the fact was that his foot was just twisted, not broken, and he just needed to rest well.

"Ah? Doctor, please take a good look. Do you really not need to put me in a cast or something?" he begged.

The doctor was very honest: "Young man, there's really no need. Your condition only looks serious, but it's actually nothing. Just rest for a few days."

Lu Ci didn't give up: "Why don't you just give me a call."

Xie Xingran slapped him on the head and said, "Alright, Lu Ciye, do you think I'm a primary school student pretending to be sick to skip classes? Even if you have a broken bone, you have to go back to work as soon as the holiday is over."

It's just too bad that Mrs. Lu has to worry so much about having such a lazy son like Lu Ci since he was a child.

Lu Ci was like a wilted little flower, pouting and slowly lowering his head.

After leaving the hospital, Xie Xingran thought that since he was already here, he might as well go to the supermarket to buy some vegetables.

Considering that he had just been injured and it was difficult for him to move, she told Lu Ci to wait outside and she would be back soon.

But things did not go as planned, and it started to drizzle again without us noticing.

They didn't bring an umbrella when they came, and Xie Xingran only realized it was raining when he came out carrying the vegetables.

Everyone was hiding from the rain, except Lu Ci, who was waiting there stupidly.

The strands of hair on his forehead were wet and stuck to his skin, with tiny water droplets sliding down his hair, but he didn't care. He held the seat in front of him tightly with his arms to prevent it from getting wet.

Fortunately, Xie Xingran took this into consideration and bought an umbrella when he came out.

Seeing this, she ran over quickly and opened her umbrella to cover him.

"Are you stupid? Don't you know how to hide from the rain?" She was angry and distressed.

Lu Ci also blinked, swung his legs and said, "Wife, I'm injured."

Xie Xingran sighed. She knew he was able to avoid the rain. His other leg was fine.

He could have hopped on one foot to avoid the rain, but he didn't, just to keep her seat from getting wet...

She raised her hand to wipe away the water droplets on his face and said softly, "Okay, let's go home."

Lu Ci also nodded obediently: "Yes! Honey, I'll hold an umbrella for you."

The rain was not heavy, and the fog intertwined, rendering the world a light gray tone. The air was filled with the lingering smell of earth and grass, as if you were in a misty fairyland.

From the street to the village, the rain gradually stopped and the sun came out again.

After getting the wild flowers from Zixuan, on the way back, I suddenly saw a few aunts sitting together and chatting under a big tree in front of me.

Lu Ci also clearly heard the words "Xie Xingran" and "disaster star"...
