Hand Injury (1)

Duan’s father was about to turn around and leave after saying that, Xue Lan suddenly came back to his senses and stood up quickly.

“I’ll go with you!”

Duan Wenzheng and Duan’s father were taken aback by his sudden reaction. Duan Wenzheng’s father smiled and said, “No, you just need to wait here. Lao Li is not here today. I’ll ask someone to come and take a look and get some candles by the way.”

Xue Lan hurriedly turned on the light on her mobile phone, but still followed up uneasily: “I’ll help you show the way.”

Duan Wenzheng slightly raised his eyebrows and looked at him, who was so shy just now that he didn’t know how to answer, but now he was uncharacteristically attentive, and followed him slowly.

Duan’s father realized that he and Duan Wenzheng never fought a lot, and when he wanted to find a candle he actually followed, so he forgot to politely reject Xue Lan’s kindness for a while, and followed each other step by step. Go up the stairs.

Duan Wenzheng followed Xue Lan unhurriedly, looked at the figure in front of him who looked around every step of the way, turned his head to the side and asked in a low voice, “So active?”

“…” Xue Lan cleared his throat unnaturally, thankful that his embarrassment could be carefully hidden in the dim light: “The power outage is so dark, of course you can’t let your father look for things alone.”

Taking advantage of the faint light of Xue Lan’s phone, Duan’s father also turned around and said, “Look at Xiao Xue!”

Duan Wenzheng didn’t have the slightest sense of being scolded, but smiled more and more complacently, as if he was the one being praised.

He leaned close to the person beside him who was conscientiously looking after the road, lowered his voice, and whispered in his ear, “Xiao Xue, you are in such a hurry to leave, I thought you were… afraid that I would eat you.”

Xue Lan, who was already nervous, slipped and nearly fell down the stairs when he heard the words. Fortunately, Duan Wenzheng by his side quickly pulled him back, and Xue Lan stood still in shock.

“Is Xiao Xue okay?” Father Duan who was walking in front whispered, “Be careful.”

Xue Lan barely stood still, and couldn’t help but think that it would be too shameful if he scrambled and fell down the stairs because of such a sentence.

Thinking of this, he hurriedly and carefully opened the distance between Duan Wenzheng and Duan Wenzheng.

But he breathed a sigh of relief just now, and was about to put on a stern look to warn Duan Wenzheng not to make such a joke, but suddenly he heard the sound of wood breaking above his head, and Duan’s father let out a low cry as if he had stepped on the air from the two of them. The stairs above fell down!

Seeing this, Xue Lan was shocked, and subconsciously stretched out his hand to stop him. He grabbed the falling person in front of him in the confusion, but he was rushed backwards because of inertia——

Everything happened too suddenly, even Xue Lan deliberately paid attention to Duan’s father, he didn’t expect this sudden change in a moment of absence, and fell down the stairs with the momentum!

The mobile phone, which was the only light source, also rolled down the stairs in this panic, and the stairwell fell into a dark mess again.

During the stumbling of the stairs, Xue Lan stretched out his hand and subconsciously wanted to hold on to the side fence, but it was pitch black, and he didn’t grab anything, so he had to subconsciously protect the person who fell with him while stumbling and rolling.

Xue Lan followed the momentum and rolled down the steps. Although he grinned in pain, he didn’t care about himself. Thinking of Duan’s father beside him, he hurriedly struggled to stand up: “Uncle, are you okay?”

“it’s okay, no problem.”

With his support, Father Duan stood up staggeringly. The accident just happened suddenly, but when he fell, he was firmly protected by the people behind him. After a false alarm, he hurriedly turned around and asked, “Xiao Xue, what are you doing?” So, are you injured?”

“I am okay.”

Xue Lan breathed a sigh of relief seeing that Duan’s father seemed to be fine and could still stand up.

But remembering that Duan’s father fell down the stairs and was seriously injured in the original text, he wanted to check carefully to see if he was injured, but as soon as he helped Duan’s father stand up, he was pulled aside, and when he raised his head, he met a pair of sullen eyes.

“If you don’t look at yourself, do you care about others first?”

Under the faint light of the reopened mobile phone, Duan Wenzheng’s complexion was dark. Seeing Xue Lan still sitting on the ground, he tried to pull him up with a calm expression.

Xue Lan was about to say that he was fine, but there was a throbbing pain in his grasped wrist, he subconsciously took a deep breath, Duan Wenzheng froze, and hurriedly let go of his hand and looked down at his wrist.

“It’s okay, maybe it was accidentally twisted just now.”

Xue Lan took the opportunity to withdraw her hand, thinking that Duan’s father was fine, and this matter passed without any danger, but he had never seen Duan Wenzheng like this before.

He usually looks like he doesn’t care about anything, but at this moment there is no smile on his face.

Xue Lan looked at his expression in fear, holding his wrist while thinking suspiciously, but he didn’t know what made him unhappy, but obviously Duan’s father suffered some skin trauma, but there was no serious injury after all, isn’t it Congratulations to all…

Duan Wenzheng squatted down in front of him with a dark face, checking his wrists by the light of the phone.
