One Can't Judge by Appearance
Chapter 13. Embarrassment 2.0
Yan Xi ignored the big monkeyâs scolding. She turned to retrieve a shoe she had thrown out and put it on her feet.
She looked around, where did the other one go?
Seeing that this woman ignored him at all, the big monkey became even angrier, and wanted to curse but was warned by the police. He didnât dare to provoke the police and gave a flattering smile. Seeing him like this, the police were a little angry when they thought of the child who was still in the hospital severely malnourished.
âGo in.â The police pushed the monkey into the police car and began to report to their superiors. They had already caught him.
Seeing that the big monkey had been taken away by the police, Yan Xi, who was still heroic just now, was panting with her hands on her waist. She hadnât exercised so strenuously for a long time, and her body was still a little uncomfortable. She didnât feel anything when she took off her shoes and ran on the ground just now. Now she feels a burning pain on the soles of her feet. She doesnât know if itâs because the floor is too hot or her foot is scratched by something.
Seeing that the road is uneven, the sacrifice of drawing a sword to help is huge, and the only gratifying thing is that the scum has been caught.
Limping to stand under the shade of the tree, the soles of his feet seemed to hurt even more.
âHey,â a pair of flat shoes appeared in front of her. The hands holding the shoes were clearly articulated, their nails were neatly trimmed, and they were not wearing any accessories. Yan Xi blinked and looked at Mr. Yuan was standing in front of her, but she didnât expect him to show up.
âChange your shoes first,â Yuan Yi saw her dumbfounded appearance, threw her shoes in front of her, put his hands around his chest, and said, âSo many men and the police are present, what are you doing as a woman, now you know that your feet hurt? â
Is this person here to help, or is he here to criticize her?
You men are so capable and can do anything, so why do you give birth to a child and make them suffer? Thinking that the other party would send her shoes anyway, Yan Xi was so knowledgeable that she didnât confront Yuan Yi with her thoughts.
She took the shoes and bent over to put them on, and picked up her high heels by the way. The size of the shoes seemed to be a bit too large, but they could be worn well.
Seeing her honestly changing shoes, Yuan Yi felt that when this woman was not talking, she was still very pleasing to eyes, âWhat do you keep these high heels for?â
âThese shoes are very expensive,â Yan Xi took two steps. The soles of these shoes are very soft. Her feet feel a lot better, but the soles of her feet still hurt when she stepped on the ground. âThank you.â
Seeing her walking back slowly to find her shoes, Yuan Yi didnât walk naturally, so he guessed that her foot must have been injured.
âXiao Yan,â Zhao Peng panted against the wall, stretched out his hand and pointed to a certain corner, which was where Yan Xiâs other shoe belonged, âWhat on earth did you eat and grow upâ âHe runs like a horse, but compared to her he is ashamed of himself as a big man.
âI grew up eating spinachâ Yan Xi made a Popeye pose and raised her chin.
Zhao Peng:â¦
He doesnât understand the thinking of young people joking now.
The corners of Yuan Yiâs mouth, which was following Yan Xi, curled up. Seeing Yan Xi turn her head, he pressed the raised corners of his mouth back again. He stepped forward a few steps and put his hands in his trouser pockets, âThere is a traditional Chinese medicine doctor who is good for trauma. I will take you to see your feet.â
After walking two steps, he saw Yan Xi still standing on the spot, âHurry up.â
âXiao Yan,â Zhao Peng looked at Yan Xi worriedly, âThis isâ¦â
âA friend of mine, Brother Zhao, you and the driver will take the footage back to the station first, and I will go straight home later.â Yan Xi saw Yuan Yi still standing in front waiting for her, and said to Zhao Peng, âHelp me ask the station for leave.â
âOkay,â As a colleague, Zhao Peng is not good at meddling in the personal life of colleagues. Although this man doesnât seem to get along well, since the other party took the initiative to prepare flat shoes for Xiao Yan, the two of them should have some friends, âIâll go back and talk to Director Chen. â
âThanks, next time I invite you to dinner, let them deduct the cost of the damaged microphone from my salary.â Yan Xi walked to Yuan Yi with her aching legs, âLetâs go.â
Seeing that she was having difficulty walking, Yuan Yi was struggling in his heart. Should he help her look for her high heels, or just carry her to the doctor, or just let her walk slowly behind him?
Yuan Yi walked forward with a sullen face and a full face of anger. After walking a few steps, he saw Yan Xi slowly following behind, her lips were pale, and her palm-sized face was covered with sweat. Only in the blink of an eye, she was separated from him by a few steps, and she looked pitiful. Very pitiful.
âGive me your hand.â Yuan Yi walked up to Yan Xi, and while talking, he didnât wait for Yan Xi to react and held her arm.
His arms were dry and cold, and there was an almost inaccessible smell.
âThank you.â With someone helping, Yan Xi walked a lot easier, and she smiled brightly at Yuan Yi.
âIf you donât try that hard, how can you suffer such a crime,â Yuan Yi said, her face flushed when he saw her. âThe other hosts are all intellectually beautiful or elegant. How come you are embarrassed and ugly?â
âIâm the bottom-level host,â Yan Xi said with a smile, âbut how do you know that Iâm the host?â
âDidnât you interview people with a microphone last time? âYuan Yi paused, took out a white handkerchief from his trouser pocket, and stuffed it into Yan Xiâs hand with disgust, âWipe the sweat from your face.â
âIt may be the host who is doing the interview, but it may also be a reporter.â Yan Xi didnât expect that a man like Yuan Yi would still retain such an ancient habit of carrying a handkerchief.
âWhy do you talk so much nonsense,â Yuan Yi turned his head, âWhatâs the difference between a host and a reporter?â
Thatâs still very big.
Seeing Yuan Yiâs expression of âIâll be angry if you talk nonsenseâ, Yan Xi glanced down at the shoes on her feet. For the sake of these shoes, she didnât care about him.
When she got to the doctor, Yan Xi knew that her feet were so painful that they were not scalded by the high temperature on the ground, but were pierced by broken glass dregs. When the doctor picked out the broken glass, she was so painful that tears almost squeezed out of her eyes.
âThe wound is very small, just be careful not to get infected,â the doctor sterilized her foot and simply bandaged it. âItâs okay.â
âItâs that simple? âYuan Yi looked at the glass dregs taken out of the tray, âWould you like to take another look?â â
âDonât worry, this is a minor injury,â the doctor stood up and put the injury medicine in a bag. âItâs eighty-seven dollars in total, thank you.â
When Yuan Yi touched his body, he realized that he didnât have a wallet with him: âCan I pay by mobile phone?â â
The old doctor pushed his presbyopic glasses: âIâm sorry, Iâm old, I donât understand these advanced charging methods, and only accept cash.â
So embarrassing.
As the second young master of the Yuan family, Yuan Yi has never bothered about money. Today, he finally realized what it means to âstump a hero with a penny of money.â
âI have it here,â Yan Xi took out her wallet from her backpack and took a hundred-yuan bill to the old doctor, âIâm sorry to trouble you.â
After Yuan Yi helped Yan Xi out of the clinic, he explained with a stern face: âI left my wallet in the car.â
Yan Xi pretended not to see the embarrassment on Yuan Yiâs face: âItâs okay, you did such a nice thing to send me over here, Iâm already very grateful, butâ¦â
Yuan Yi turned to look at her.
âBut itâs best not to put valuables in the car. Not only is the car not safe, but valuables are also not safe.â Yan Xi told a story about the car window being smashed and all the things in the car being stolen.
Yuan Yi listened silently. After walking for more than ten minutes, the two of them stopped in front of a car: âGet in the car and I will take you back.â
âWill this be too much trouble for you? âYan Xi was a little embarrassed.
âYes,â Yuan Yi opened the door and helped Yan Xi to sit in the passenger seat, âIt is all trouble, but can I still throw you halfway in the hot weather?â
Yan Xi:â¦
He speaks like this. If it werenât for his good looks and the money and power in his family, he would be a bachelor for a lifetime.
Yuan Yi got into the driverâs seat, turned his head, and glanced at Yan Xi one after another. Seeing that she was sitting as stable as a mountain, he finally couldnât bear to say, âFasten your seat belt, Iâm going to drive. â
âOh.â Yan Xi then remembered that her seat belt was not fastened.
Seeing that Yan Xi finally fastened her seat belt, Yuan Yi stopped looking at her, started the car, and drove forward.
The car was quiet, Yuan Yi didnât turn on the stereo, nor did he talk to Yan Xi. Yan Xi held back for half an hour, then said, âMr. Yuan, thank you very much for helping me today. Why donât you leave me your contact information and I will treat you to dinner next time.â
âDonât talk to the driver in the car.â Yuan Yi replied indifferently.
Yan Xi turned her head and looked out the car window. If he didnât want to give it, she could save money for a treat.
This embarrassing silence was maintained until the car was parked outside the community where Yan Xi lived, and it was finally unblocked. Yuan Yi stopped the car and read out a string of numbers to Yanxi.
âWhat?â Yan Xi was stunned.
âMy phone number and WeChat ID,â Yuan Yi was a little unhappy, âDid you just ask me for it?â
Could it be that she was just talking casually?
An ungrateful hypocritical woman, he helped her, and she didnât even want to invite a meal.
âI thought you didnât want to give it to me.â Yan Xi took out her mobile phone, stored Yuan Yiâs mobile phone number, and remarked his name as âMr. Yuanâ in front of him.
For the first time, she saw a wealthy and noble son who talked about traffic rules in this way, and she strictly followed the rules of not talking to the driver while driving. She wanted to write him a commendation.
There was nothing much to say, but Yuan Yi was still a little unhappy in his heart, so he pursed his mouth and didnât speak. When Yan Xiâs cell phone called him, he didnât look at it, he raised his chin, âOkay, you can get out of the car.â
âYou donât have to worry, I donât use WeChat often,â Yan Xi replied with a smile, âso I wonât send you a message.â
Yan Xi got out of the car with her high heels, and when she turned around, Yuan Yiâs car was sprayed with exhaust gas.
When the car turned a corner, Yuan Yi parked the car on the side of the road. He took out his mobile phone and found that there were five missed calls. Four were from friends, and one was an unfamiliar number. He saved the number and remarked it as âYan Single Dog.â
In the WeChat friend application form, an account called âDahe, I am Xiaoxiâ was applied to add him as a friend, and her avatar was a pot of red hair and blood.
This womanâ¦
The avatar and name are not feminine at all.
Yuan Yi curled his lips in disgust and nodded in agreement.
Get the meal she promised back in a few days!
