Xiao Luo laughed softly, and his gaze gradually became gentler.
Whether other people cared about him or not had never mattered much to him. The years would pass one after another regardless. A person’s life belonged to themselves; as long as they cherished themselves, that was enough.
Still, Jin Luoluo’s words warmed his heart.
Having someone care about you was, after all, a nice feeling.
A knock came from the door.
Jin Luoluo opened it and saw Auntie Zhang standing outside.
Auntie Zhang said enthusiastically,
“Master Xiao, Madam Xiao, I noticed that both of you seem to be injured. Injuries shouldn’t be left untreated, so I invited Zhao Si from the village entrance to come and take a look at you.”
Jin Luoluo was delighted.
She had never expected that there would be a doctor in such a remote mountain village.
This was really their lucky day.
To be honest, her back still hurt terribly. It was probably covered in bruises by now.
“Auntie Zhang, thank you so much! When will he arrive?”
“Soon. He’ll come over as soon as he finishes treating the pigs belonging to the Dong family.”
A cold wind seemed to sweep through the room.
Jin Luoluo froze.
Inside, she was screaming:
Auntie! We’re not pigs! How can you get a veterinarian to treat us?!
Of course, she could never say something so rude out loud.
After all, the woman meant well.
“Oh, there’s no rush. My injuries aren’t that serious. A little medicated oil will do. My husband’s condition is more severe. I’m really worried about him, so let the vet—I mean, let Doctor Zhao take a look at him first!”
Haha!
This time the crafty prince was in for some bad luck.
Imagine being treated by a veterinarian as if you were a pig.
How entertaining!
Xiao Luo naturally saw through Jin Luoluo’s little scheme and smiled helplessly.
“My dear wife, thank you so much for your concern. Your husband is deeply touched.”
“No need to thank me. It’s only right, only right.”
Seeing Xiao Luo at a disadvantage, Jin Luoluo was nearly dying from holding back her laughter.
Veterinarian Zhao Si examined Xiao Luo’s injuries with impressive seriousness.
Whether he truly knew medicine or was simply treating a dead horse as though it were alive, no one could tell.
At the very least, he looked professional.
Jin Luoluo sat nearby, watching curiously as Zhao Si kneaded and manipulated Xiao Luo’s body.
Xiao Luo wore an expression of restrained pain.
She almost laughed herself to death.
He had probably been treating the crafty prince exactly the way he treated pigs, kneading and rubbing him all over.
Poor Xiao Luo!
At last, drenched in sweat, Zhao Si finished the treatment.
