Chapter 1: Are you sick?

  "How dare you yell at me?" Jiao Nan's angry voice rang out. From childhood to adulthood, no one had ever dared to speak to her in such a manner. This man was actually so rude to her.

  "You dare to move again, I'll dare to spank your butt." Tang said threateningly.

  "You dare."

  Tang Zhong slapped her buttocks. One hand supported her upper body, the other hand supported her lower body, making it very inconvenient to spank, so he couldn't use too much force.

  "Hit me again." Jiao Nanxin didn't think that Tang Zhong would actually dare to hit her. The sensitive area was hit, and she felt a numbness, a little stimulation, but more of it was humiliation. She had the thought of killing him.

  "You"

  "This time I didn't let you hit me, but you still hit me, you damn bastard!" Jiao Nanxin was about to suffocate with rage. Her injured leg made it inconvenient for her to move, and she wrapped her arms around Tang Chong's neck, biting down on his shoulder.

  "Don't you think it's salty?" Tang Chong asked with a smile. "I wore this shirt yesterday and forgot to wash it----"

  After hearing Tang Chong's words, Jiao Nan felt a salty taste in his mouth and unwillingly bit down hard before loosening his teeth.

  "Shall we go to your dormitory or mine?" Tang Zhong asked.

  Jiao Nanxin felt that this question was quite strange. It's like those erotic men and women on TV who, after drinking, ask "should we go to your place or mine?" - and the two of them still maintain such an intimate posture.

  "Go back to your dormitory."

  She wanted to go back to her dormitory, but was once again carried back by Tang Chong, and even if she jumped into the Yellow River, she couldn't wash herself clean.

  Moreover, those women all like to sleep in. At this time going back, they must show off their beauty. Let them expose themselves in front of a boy with a plain face, they will hate themselves to death.

  She thought that boys' dormitories didn't have so many taboos.

  Tang Zhong also thought it would be better to take her back to his dormitory. Now going to the girls' dorm, they must not have gotten up yet. As a decent person, he really didn't want to see those big legs and sleepwear pulled up revealing their bellies and navels outside. Some of them hadn't even put on their underwear properly or wore ones that were too small exposing more content...

  Li Yu hurried over and asked if she needed help.

  "You continue to exercise. I'll send her back to the dormitory and help her apply some ointment on her leg." Tang Zhong said.

  Li Yudian nodded and ran past them.

  Tang Chong hugged Jiao Nanxin and walked to the men's dormitory building when the old man guarding the door was practicing Tai Chi in the small garden at the corner.

  Tang Chong went out the door and knew that he had seen him go out for a while, then hugged a girl in, shocked, and asked: "What's going on? Who is this girl?"

  "Grandpa, she's my classmate. We were running together and she sprained her leg, so I'm taking her up to help her apply some medicine."

  The old man guarding the gate waved his hand and said, "Go on. You'd better hurry up. If you're late, it won't be easy to cure."

  There is an unwritten rule in school.

  Girls can come and go freely in the boys' dormitory, and the old man on duty doesn't care even if he sees it. But boys cannot easily enter the girls' dormitory, and the aunt on duty is staring very tightly.

  Perhaps they subconsciously think that girls can't do much harm even if they enter the boys' dormitory, while boys entering the girls' dormitory can cause a lot of trouble.

  Tang Chong kicked open the bedroom door just as Hua Ming came out of the bathroom.

  He stood at the bathroom door wearing only a pair of triangular briefs, his eyes half-closed and his face bewildered as he stared at the scene unfolding before him.

  "My god, Second Brother has brought back a beauty?" That was his first reaction.

  Tang Zhong didn't even have time to think about what he was thinking, he carried Jiao Nanxin to his own bed and then pulled a sheet to wrap Huaming's body, pushing him to lie on his own bed.

  "I'll go get some ice," said Tang Chong.

  When bruised or sprained, the internal tissues of the injured area will have a large number of capillaries ruptured, and blood will quickly seep out to form local hematoma. At this time, if medicinal wine is used for massage or hot compresses are applied, it will immediately cause the local blood vessels to expand, increasing blood flow and speed, which will also increase the amount of blood seeping out. Forceful massage and rubbing will also cause new injuries to the already injured tissues, causing more capillaries to rupture and producing new bleeding, aggravating local swelling and pain.

  So the best way is to use an ice pack - this is also why Tang Zhong had to run down to find an ice pack, not intentionally trying to show off in front of Jiao Nan.

  "Ah----"

  Jiao Nanxin's "ai" had just escaped her lips when Tang Chong had already run out the door. The remaining words "there's no need to go to so much trouble" didn't get a chance to be said.

  The campus supermarket had just opened, and inside it didn't sell ice, so Tang Zhong bought two bottles of frozen mineral water back.

  He walked into the bathroom, took his own basin, poured hot water into it, and then threw a towel in to disinfect.

  After disinfecting, pour out the boiling water in the basin. Throw in a towel and then twist open the mineral water bottle cap to pour water into the basin. Then, he carried the basin of water and walked to Jiao Nanxin's side, squatting down.

  Jiao Nanxin was wearing sports shorts, with her thighs and calves exposed. Tang Zhong only needed to remove the white sports shoes from her feet, then fold the towel soaked in ice water into a square block, carefully sticking it onto the bruised area on her ankle.

  "Hiss----"

  Jiao Nan took a deep breath of cool air. The injured part of his foot was both cold and painful, the feeling was really unbearable.

  "Just bear with it," Tang said comfortingly. "Your leg injury last time didn't heal thoroughly, you should rest for a while longer. Otherwise, if you aggravate the injury, it'll be hard to recover. There's even a possibility of leaving behind aftereffects."

  "I thought it was all right..." Jiao Nanxin said with a hint of grievance.

  The leg injury last time made her rest for more than half a month and she didn't attend the military training for the whole month.

  After she felt that her leg injury had fully recovered, she thought about resuming her morning running habit. After all, having persisted for so many years, it would be a pity to give up halfway.

  Giving up is easy, but wanting to start again requires great willpower.

  Unexpectedly, while jogging this morning, she accidentally kicked the water pipe outlet on the outside of the playground again, causing her body to lose balance and fall once more.

  Fortunately, her body reacted quickly and she forcibly twisted to the left just as she was about to fall, throwing herself onto the grass. Otherwise, her knees would have been scraped again and her face would have been disfigured.

  "You know you're done for this time, don't you?" Tang Zhong said. He put the hot towel back into the water basin, soaked it in water, and then wrung it out with his hands.

  Tang Chong stuck the folded towel onto it, and Jiao Nan Xin let out a hissing intake of breath once again.

  After applying it several times in a row, Tang Chong washed his hands and brought the basin into the bathroom.

  He opened his desk drawer and took out a bottle of Yunnan Baiyao ointment from inside.

  Then, he pulled over a stool and sat down in front of Jiao Nan Xin, letting her put her calf on his thigh, applying the ointment of Yunnan Baiyao to his hand, and started gently massaging.

  Being held by a man and having his small feet stroked, this was more embarrassing for Jiao Nan than being spanked. However, he also knew that Tang Zhong was doing it to treat him, so even if he wanted to object, he had no reason to do so.

  And looking at his serious face, it doesn't seem like he's intentionally taking advantage of me.

  "Your legs look quite good." Tang Chong said with a smile.

  "Hmph." Jiao Nan Xin could only let out a cold hum. She didn't know how to answer this question either.

  "It's just that there are more corns."

  "Go die." Jiao Nan kicked him with his uninjured foot.

  "Don't move." Tang Zhong stretched out his hand and grasped her ankle. "Be careful not to pull on the injured area."

  A cool sensation permeated his body, making Jiao Nan feel extremely comfortable at his ankle. The accumulated blood stasis was also rubbed away by him.

  A few minutes later, Tang Chong put away the ointment and washed his hands in the bathroom before asking, "Are you hungry?"

  Jiao Nan nodded slightly.

  "Sit here for a while. I'll go buy you some breakfast." Tang Zhong said.

  Then he took his own rice bowl to the cafeteria and brought back a large bowl of millet porridge, also packing enough oil cakes for five or six people.

  Tang Zhong first helped Jiao Nanxin divide a bowl of porridge and sent it over, saying: "Eat."

  Jiao Nanxin took a glance at Tang Zhong, didn't bother to be polite with him, and started drinking. She also instructed Tang Zhong to get her some fried dough sticks to eat. She was indeed a bit hungry.

  After all, he is Grandfather's apprentice, which makes him her junior fellow disciple. It's only natural for a junior fellow disciple to run errands for his senior sister.

  Thinking of this, she became even more hungry.

  Tang Zhong also drank a bowl of porridge and ate a few pieces of bread, waiting for Jiao Nanxin to finish her breakfast before walking over to pick her up and head out.

  "What do you want to do?" Jiao Nan exclaimed in shock and shouted out loud.

  "I'll send you back," said Tang Chong.

  "Let go. I can walk myself."

  "You can't leave." Tang Zhong didn't stop, but instead quickened his pace.

  "How can you be so overbearing?"

  "If you look at it from a different angle, maybe you'll think I'm very gentle."

  "You-----" Jiao Nanxin wanted to retort, but her throat seemed to be blocked by something and she couldn't say a word.

  As soon as the dormitory door closed, Hua Ming and Liang Tao, who had been pretending to sleep in silence, both jumped up from their beds.

  "Boss, was that girl just now Jiao Nanxin or not?" Liang Tao asked anxiously.

  "Who else could it be but her?" Hua Ming cried out to the heavens. "Heavens and earth, what kind of sin have you committed by giving all the beauties to Second Brother? If that's the case, why did you make me so excellent? Isn't this just slapping me in the face?"

  "Didn't you say last time that Lao Er and Jiao Nanxin had a bad relationship and almost fought in the classroom?" Liang Tao asked doubtfully.

  "It's really like that." Hua Ming said. "I was deceived, we were all deceived. It turned out that it was just their trick to deceive us - they had already hooked up with each other. Old Three, you slept on top of me and didn't see anything? They were so affectionate earlier, touching legs and massaging, and even exchanged sweet glances... after they finished, one of them even carried her away in a princess carry. You say Old Two is a beast or not? We all pretended to be asleep, couldn't he just do it right there in the dorm?"

  "Liāng Tāo thinks, you are a beast, you are a fighting beast among beasts."
