Chapter 1104: Chapter 1104: Your Injury, My Pain

“Uncle, you’re so annoying; I’m not talking to you anymore—I’m going to play with them!” Saying so, she ran out…

Chu Liyuan smiled, straightened his clothes, and followed.

“Jian, you’re so slow. What are you doing? Come on, hurry up, we’re having a swimming competition!” Xia Mengjiao waved at Jian Dan.

“I’m coming~”

“Wait~ when did you learn to swim?”

It was then that Jian Dan remembered she had never swum in front of Uncle before.

...

“Mm! I learned after giving birth to the baby.”

“How come I didn’t know about it?”

“Acting a bit weaker in front of Uncle means he’ll spoil me a little more!”

“Are you saying I don’t spoil you enough?”

“That’s not true!” If she felt that even with the way Uncle spoiled her it wasn’t enough, then she would really be too demanding. “So now Uncle knows, right?

But my swimming skills aren’t very good, so Uncle has to protect me well while I’m in the water, okay?” Jian Dan winked at Chu Liyuan and then joined the others.

“I’m here.”

“We just agreed that the loser has to perform a show at dinner tonight.”

“You guys are just picking on me, aren’t you? My swimming and my talents both aren’t good!”

“Well, there’s nothing we can do about it, but we’re competing by family, so you can ask your Uncle to help you!”

“But I seem to have just offended Uncle!”

“Ah? Then you’re out of luck; you’ll just have to prepare your performance for tonight.” Xia Mengjiao looked at Jian Dan sympathetically.

Jian Dan turned her head to look back at Uncle.

Chu Liyuan knew Jian Jian was looking at him, so he pretended not to notice and looked elsewhere, waiting for Jian Jian to come over to him of her own accord.

If she lost later and had to perform, it would truly be a disaster; while it was merely a performance for others, it would turn into a comedy show for her.

When he saw Jian Jian moving towards him, Chu Liyuan knew his goal had been achieved.

“Uncle, I was wrong, I promise to tell you everything from now on, okay?” Jian Dan, like a child who had made a mistake, tugged at Chu Liyuan’s sleeve and pleaded.

Chu Liyuan had never been able to resist Jian Dan’s coquettishness; he couldn’t even when he was angry, let alone now when he wasn’t angry at all.

“You really want to win?”

“Mm!” Jian Dan honestly nodded her head.

“Understood!” He took Jian Dan’s hand and walked back with her.

“What’s up? Wasn’t it said that Chu wouldn’t join in? What’s the situation now?” Sizhe had agreed to compete with Jian Dan only after hearing that Chu Liyuan might not participate.

Now there was this sudden feeling of trying to steal a chicken only to end up losing the rice instead.

“If my lass wants to win, of course, I’ll fulfill her wish. Stop the chit-chat and let’s start!”

There was no question, in the competition between Chu Liyuan, Jian Dan, Sizhe, and Yuan Xinjie, Chu Liyuan was the winner!

“Feeling happy now?” Chu Liyuan said indulgently, stroking Jian Dan’s head.

“Mm!” Jian Dan’s face was beaming with a broad smile.

Chu Liyuan, looking at Jian Jian’s smiling face, also felt inexplicably happy in his heart.

When they were playing, lots of things naturally got ignored.

The reason why Chu Liyuan had never discovered the injury on Jian Dan’s back, caused by a previous diving accident, was because every day she spent a lot of time concealing it little by little with powder that was waterproof, so even if she sweated, Uncle never noticed. However, because she had been immersed in the seawater for too long today, the powder had washed away.

When they returned to the tent to change clothes~

“Jian Jian, your back?” Seeing the purplish bruises on Jian Dan’s shoulder, Chu Liyuan’s eyes narrowed dangerously…

Jian Dan then remembered the injury on her back and subconsciously tried to pull her clothes up to cover the marks, but Chu Liyuan would not let her, and with a pull, her entire back was exposed to him~

Only then did Chu Liyuan realize that Jian Jian’s entire back was almost entirely bruised. With his experience, he could tell that the injury was already a few days old.

Aside from feeling distressed for Jian Jian, he also felt an immediate surge of self-reproach throughout his body…
