312 Wanting to Be One of Her Many Healthy Older Brothers
Fortunately, Qiao Xiuli quickly grabbed onto the handle of the wheelchair to prevent himself from falling.
The attendant was shocked. “Young Master!”
He ran forward and helped Qiao Xiuli.
Their young master’s face was no longer as calm and indifferent as before.
In its place was a slight frown. His knees must be hurting badly!
“I’m fine.” Qiao Xiuli slowly breathed out to calm the pain in his legs. “Keep your voice down. Don’t let Nuo’er hear you. If she sees me like this, she’ll be frightened.”
The attendant was anxious, but there was nothing he could do.
He helped Qiao Xiuli onto the wheelchair and then squatted down to massage both sides of his knees.
The attendant sighed. “Young Master, in my opinion, Her Highness is smart and considerate. Why do you have to put on a strong front in front of her? I feel bad for you just from seeing this!”
Qiao Xiuli turned his head slightly and looked at the peach blossom tree that had just bloomed.
A gust of wind blew past and the fragrance fell.
A peach blossom landed in his slender palm.
Qiao Xiuli lowered his eyes and looked at the weak and limp flower, smiling.
“It’s because Nuo’er has many older brothers. I also want to be one of her many healthy older brothers. It’s a pity that my legs… I don’t want her to think that I’m living a tough life. As long as Nuo’er is happy, it’s fine. There’s no need to let her know about these troublesome things.”
The attendant could only shake his head to himself.
Their young master was good in everything, but he didn’t show care for himself!
The attendant tried his best to massage the acupoints on Qiao Xiuli’s legs.
Qiao Xiuli praised him indifferently, “A’Zhong, you’ve become more and more skilled. My knee doesn’t hurt so much anymore.”
“Is that so?” The attendant was also a little surprised and said happily, “I must have learned well from that old doctor. It turns out that he’s right. Massaging the acupoints often can make Young Master feel a lot better!”
What the two of them didn’t know was that at the corner of the long corridor, a small figure had been hiding behind a pillar.
Her fair hand slowly emitted an extremely beautiful watery blue glow from her fingers.
Wisps of spiritual power quietly darted into Qiao Xiuli’s knees.
It cleared up the clogged spots for him and also eased his pain.
Gu Nuo’er’s big eyes were filled with tears, making her beautiful eyes look teary.
She was so smart, so how could she not know that Qiao Xiuli had been putting on a strong front to be carrying her for so long?
Even though she had requested to come down many times, Qiao Xiuli was unwilling to do so.
Gu Nuo’er wanted to protect his dignity as an older brother.
She pretended that she was going to look for her grandfather, but she was actually hiding behind the pillar.
She was waiting for an opportunity to use her spiritual energy to relieve her brother’s discomfort.
The child had also sensed before and knew that her brother’s leg muscles and bones were hurt.
It was impossible to completely cure him with just medicine or acupuncture.
However, if she were to use her magic powers, it wouldn’t be a problem to cure Qiao Xiuli’s leg injury.
However, in order not to arouse suspicion, she could only send a bit of spiritual power to Qiao Xiuli every time she saw him.
With such gradual treatment, sooner or later, Qiao Xiuli would be able to stand up again.
The child wiped her tears with the back of her hand, her fair face looking exceptionally strong.
Her brother was so good, so she would definitely cure him!
Gu Nuo’er made up her mind and quietly moved her small feet to leave from the other end.
…
In the afternoon, heavy rain fell without warning.
The scent of the mountains was mixed with the fragrance of the trees and flowers in the mountains.
However, Bai Yi and the others were not in the mood to admire the beautiful scenery in the deep mountains.
This was because they were about to approach the mountain bandits’ hideout.
Bai Yi arranged for a soldier to scout the way.
The others temporarily hid in a cave to avoid the rain.
