After a quick foot soak and drying, it's time to apply the medicine.

I feel a little embarrassed to have someone wash my feet, but I don't mind having them apply medicine.

Lin An'an blushed a little at first, but after mistaking Gu Qingsong for a doctor, she was only nervous.

As Gu Qingsong's hand got closer and closer to her ankle, Lin An'an's heart pounded harder and harder, and she couldn't help but close her eyes in fear.

A few seconds later, Lin An'an opened her eyes, somewhat surprised.

Rubbing the ointment on her swollen ankle did hurt a bit, but it didn't seem as painful as she had imagined; it was completely within her tolerance range.

Gu Qingsong rubbed his hands together to warm them beforehand, and the warmth of his palms, along with the ointment, slowly seeped into Lin An'an's ankles.

With gentle movements, the swollen ankle no longer felt unbearable pain, but instead received relief.

Seeing that Lin An'an didn't seem to be in any pain, Gu Qingsong breathed a sigh of relief.

Although he tried to be as gentle as possible with his hands, it was still a little painful to rub the bruises open and to promote blood circulation.

Gu Qingsong thought to himself, "If Lin An'an can endure it, that's fine. But if she's particularly afraid of pain, then..."

He must have been reluctant to continue applying the medicine despite his wife's cries of pain, otherwise the effect of the medicine would be greatly reduced.

After applying the medicine, Lin An'an carefully examined her ankle and it seemed that the swelling had indeed subsided.

And it didn't hurt as much as it did in the morning; instead, a comfortable coolness slowly spread from the affected area.

When Gu Qingsong returned after washing his hands, Lin An'an was still curiously examining her ankle, even poking it lightly with her finger. Finding it didn't hurt much, she smiled happily.

Seeing Lin An'an's smiling face, Gu Qingsong unconsciously smiled as well.

He wiped his hands and said, "Alright, the ankle sprain isn't serious. It should be fine after a few more days of applying the ointment, but try not to do anything strenuous and move around as little as possible."

Lin An'an nodded with bright eyes. This man really has some skills.

Looking into Lin An'an's big, watery eyes, Gu Qingsong couldn't help but pat her head. She was so cute.

"We're getting married next month, what do you want?" Gu Qingsong asked, remembering his main purpose for coming today.

Lin An'an was stunned, wondering how the topic had jumped to this point.

Instinctively extracting the key information, he repeated, "Getting married next month?"

"Yes, I've checked. The 10th of next month is an auspicious day, perfect for a wedding."

Gu Qingsong thought for a moment and said, "Because of my family background, the wedding can't be too ostentatious."

At this point, Gu Qingsong felt a little sorry for Lin An'an, but he didn't have any better solutions.

He could only continue, "But don't worry, you'll have everything that others have. It's just that we can't say it openly, but I'll definitely make up for it doubled in private."

Lin An'an didn't really care about these things, but...

"Today is the last day of this month. When you say the 10th of next month, do you mean ten days from now?"

Lin An'an suspected the man was mistaken. The 10th of the month after next was already outrageous, but to get married in ten days seemed too fast.

Upon hearing Lin An'an's question, Gu Qingsong calmly replied, "It's ten days from now."

"It's getting cold, and it might snow soon. This place is different from the south. Although it's not the far north, the snow here is still quite thick in winter, which will make things inconvenient."
