Madam, Please Behave-Chapter 225: Worry

After parking the car, Liu Changqing rushed toward his home in a hurry.

Even when going up the stairs, he took three steps at a time, trying to shorten the time as much as possible.

When he reached his apartment door, he quickly unlocked it, yanked it open, and dashed inside.

An Yuanyao was nowhere to be seen in the living room.

Without even changing his shoes, he sprinted straight to his bedroom.

Inside the room, he spotted An Yuanyao sitting on the bed, holding her phone. She looked a little surprised to see Liu Changqing standing at the doorway, panting heavily.

She hadn’t expected him to come back so quickly.

Liu Changqing’s gaze swept across the room. A fallen chair was lying next to the wardrobe, with some cleaning tools scattered nearby.

Just one glance was enough for him to figure out what had happened.

He quickly stepped forward and looked at An Yuanyao, who was still sitting on the bed.

“You should be more careful. That chair wasn’t sturdy to begin with…”

Muttering under his breath, Liu Changqing reached the bed, crouched down, and gently cupped her injured foot.

“Hiss… it hurts…”

The moment he touched it, a sharp pain shot through her foot, making An Yuanyao involuntarily gasp.

Liu Changqing hesitated for a second but didn’t stop. He carefully lifted her left foot and examined it.

It was pretty bad—her left ankle was already swollen. Compared to her right foot, the difference was obvious.

This wasn’t something he could just handle on his own. Without hesitation, he made a decision.

Scooping An Yuanyao into his arms, he strode toward the door.

“You need to go to the hospital. Your foot’s swollen like a pig’s trotter.”

“Ugh…”

Hearing that, An Yuanyao felt embarrassed.

She had always been used to doing household chores, and nothing like this had ever happened before.

But when the accident occurred, she panicked, lacking any emergency experience. She had tried to stand up, only to find that her injured foot couldn’t bear any weight.

Flustered, she instinctively grabbed her phone and called Liu Changqing…

As she wrapped her arms around his neck, looking at his serious expression, the pain in her foot seemed to lessen.

Her gaze lingered on his face, lost in thought.

When they arrived at the hospital, after a checkup and treatment, Liu Changqing finally felt relieved.

It wasn’t too serious.

The doctor simply advised her to avoid strenuous activities or housework for a while.

After collecting the prescribed medicine and spray, Liu Changqing drove her home.

On the way back, he made sure to drive smoothly. Glancing at the silly smile on An Yuanyao’s face, he couldn’t help but ask,

“This is the first time I’ve seen someone twist their ankle and still be so happy… What’s so funny? Tell me too.”

His words reached An Yuanyao’s ears, making her snap out of it. She quickly wiped the smile off her face, turned to look at Liu Changqing, and softly asked,

“You were really worried about me just now, weren’t you?”

“What kind of question is that? Your foot swelled up like that—how could I not be worried? And seriously, that wardrobe is so high. Be more careful when cleaning! Just leave the high places to me next time. Now look at you—you’re injured, and there’s no one to help you. You can’t even get down the stairs on your own.”

After saying that, he continued,

“When the doctor was checking your foot, you were grinning non-stop. I really don’t get it… What made you so happy?”

“I’m not telling you!”

“Ugh…”

Hearing her response, Liu Changqing sighed. Though his tone carried a hint of scolding, seeing her cheerful face made him inexplicably smile too.

Staring at the road ahead, he chuckled and added,

“Be more careful from now on. If you get hurt… I’ll worry.”

His voice was soft.

An Yuanyao heard it but wasn’t entirely sure, so after a moment of hesitation, she turned to him and asked,

“What did you just say?”

“I said…”

This time, he spoke louder.

“If you get hurt, I’ll worry.”

“I can’t really hear you~”

“You totally heard me. You just want me to say it again, don’t you?”

Seeing the playful smile on her face, Liu Changqing gave up.

“Fine! I worry about you, I worry about you, I worry about you… Happy now?”

“Hehe!”

“Yeah, laugh all you want. Let’s see how you get upstairs when we arrive. I won’t carry you.”

“You won’t!”

An Yuanyao leaned toward him, but the seatbelt kept her at a reasonable distance.

“After all… you just said you were worried about me…”

“…”

Liu Changqing was silent for a while before suddenly bursting into laughter.

Looking at this woman, who was already in her thirties yet acting like a young girl, he sighed.

“Fine, I’ll carry you.”

Liu Zhiyue was doing warm-up exercises.

His class was about to have a PE lesson.

Normally, PE was the kind of class that should’ve been taught by a frail PE teacher who conveniently fell sick, leaving the lesson to another subject teacher.

But because the high school entrance exam included a physical test, the PE teacher didn’t dare to blatantly skip class like in high school.

Middle school PE teachers were still relatively strong.

Though occasionally, they did fall sick, and when that happened, other teachers had to take over reluctantly.

On the field, the PE teacher stood in front of the class, leading the students in warm-ups. He wore a white short-sleeved shirt, a black whistle around his neck, black athletic pants, white sneakers, and had neatly trimmed short hair.

“One, two, three, four… Two, two, three, four… Three, two, three, four…”

The warm-up didn’t last long. Once they finished, the students stood in neat rows, all eyes on the teacher.

Blowing his whistle once, the PE teacher looked at them with a serious expression and announced,

“As you all know, our school holds an annual sports meet. Bringing honor to the class is bringing honor to the group. I’ve discussed this with your homeroom teacher, and we’ve decided to pick a few students from this class to compete.”

The moment he said that, the students fell silent and exchanged uneasy glances.

No one wanted to be picked.

Back when classes hadn’t been divided, they could rely on the athletic kids in the back rows. But after the reshuffling, the Rocket Class students weren’t exactly known for their physical training.

So now, after hearing this announcement, everyone was doing their best to avoid eye contact with the PE teacher.

Liu Zhiyue was no exception.

He definitely didn’t want to participate in the sports meet either.
