Liu Yifeng was overjoyed to hear that the ointment had such a miraculous effect.
He wasn't worried about his injuries not healing, but being injured was indeed quite inconvenient.
Recalling the large patches of bruises on his back, he quickly said, "Tongtong, Baba's back is also bruised, can you help Baba rub some on my back too?"
Tongtong nodded, "Then Baba, roll up your shirt!"
Liu Yifeng obediently rolled up his shirt, revealing the large area of bruises on his back.
Seeing Baba's injuries, Tongtong felt heartbroken, "Baba, how could you fall so badly? Did someone bully you?"
"No one bullied Baba, Baba just wasn't careful. Hurry up and rub it on Baba!"
"Baba is lying, the location of your injuries is not something you could have fallen into yourself! There must have been an external factor." Little did he know, Tongtong's sharp eyes saw through Liu Yifeng's well-intentioned lie.
Remembering that Tongtong could knock him down, indicating he knew something about fighting, Liu Yifeng told the truth since he couldn't trick him.
"This morning, Baba was in the mall and met your deskmate Yaoyao. She fell from the third-floor railing. Baba reached out to catch her, but due to the great inertia, Baba fell to the ground, which is how I got like this."
Tongtong immediately became anxious upon hearing this, "Is Yaoyao okay?"
"You child, you're not worried about Baba's injuries but about Yaoyao. Don't worry, she's fine!" Liu Yifeng felt a bit speechless. This child loves his father, but not enough...
Just as he was feeling extremely dejected, his head was suddenly hit hard from behind, followed by his father's angry voice.
"You reckless kid, daring to catch someone with your bare hands.
Haven't you seen news about people jumping to their deaths and killing pedestrians?
And this morning you lied to me, saying you fell yourself. You're too bold."
Seeing his father puffing out his chest in anger, Liu Yifeng, afraid he would get sick from anger, quickly said, "Dad, I was just afraid you would worry!
Besides, I'm fine, so don't be angry."
"You call this fine? Look at your back, it's black and blue. Fortunately, you didn't hit your head when you fell, otherwise, you'd likely be in the emergency room by now.
If something happened to you, did you ever think about me and Tongtong? What would happen to us if you left?
Especially Tongtong, do you want him to be an orphan at such a young age?" Liu Chunsheng's eyes reddened as he spoke. The thought of the dangerous scene that morning sent shivers down his spine.
Liu Yifeng, like a child who had done wrong, apologized earnestly, "Dad, I'm sorry. What happened this morning was indeed impulsive.
But the situation was very dangerous at the time, and I didn't think much of it. I promise I won't do such dangerous things again."
Liu Chunsheng calmed down, "Dad isn't saying you shouldn't save people, but you should only save people within your capabilities.
You played the hero today, but your actions are irresponsible to me and Tongtong.
Don't say Dad is selfish. Who in this world isn't selfish? We can only take care of ourselves, not others."
"Dad, I understand. I was inconsiderate today. Fortunately, everyone is fine. I promise not to gamble with my life in the future." Liu Yifeng was actually quite scared, but he didn't regret it, because he had saved a life.
"Look at your injuries, how could you act like nothing happened during the day!" Liu Chunsheng looked at his son's back with concern.
Liu Yifeng smiled dismissively, "It's nothing, just minor injuries.
Besides, Tongtong even specially made me an ointment. It'll heal in three days."
If it were just medicine bought from a hospital with that kind of efficacy, it would probably take at least half a month to heal.
Afterward, Liu Chunsheng took over Tongtong's work and applied the ointment to Liu Yifeng.
Although he was a rough old man, his movements were extremely gentle, and Liu Yifeng felt no pain at all.
Since he had ointment on his body, he was afraid of rubbing it off on his clothes, so he simply took off his shirt, revealing his toned upper body.
"Dad, I'll go feed the chickens!" Liu Yifeng remembered what his father had instructed him to do.
"Feed what? I'll do it, you just rest well!" Liu Chunsheng said.
Liu Yifeng gave a wry smile, "Dad, these are just minor injuries, why are you treating me like a disabled person?"
"What, is it my fault for telling you to rest?" Liu Chunsheng retorted.
How could Liu Yifeng dare to argue with his father? He repeatedly shook his head, "No!"
Seeing this, Liu Chunsheng went into the yard.
At this moment, the big white dog in the cage started barking, seemingly displeased at being confined by Liu Yifeng.
Hearing Da Bai's bark, Tongtong quickly picked him up from the cage, and the person and the dog played happily.
The next morning, Liu Yifeng discovered that the swelling on his elbow had significantly subsided, and it was no longer as red.
Then he looked in the mirror, and the black and purple color had also faded a lot. The medicine's effect was too magical.
But thinking that it was developed by Tongtong, it was no longer surprising.
After breakfast, Liu Yifeng drove Tongtong to kindergarten.
He dropped Tongtong off and delivered the vegetables to the back door, then prepared to leave. Suddenly, someone called him.
He turned around and saw Xu Muqing, looking at him with a gentle expression and a faint smile in her eyes, appearing much more approachable.
Seeing this, Liu Yifeng curiously asked, "Ms. Xu, is there something?"
"Is your injury better?" Xu Muqing asked with concern.
"It's fine, the swelling has subsided!" Liu Yifeng said, showing Xu Muqing his elbow.
Seeing that his hand was already more than halfway healed, Xu Muqing was surprised. Yesterday it looked bruised and swollen, but how had it subsided so much today?
Was the medicine prescribed by the hospital really that effective?
"I'm strong and healthy, and my recovery ability is good!" Liu Yifeng explained.
Although Xu Muqing was surprised by Liu Yifeng's quick recovery, she didn't dwell on it. Instead, she smiled and said, "Mr. Liu, to thank you for risking your life to save my daughter yesterday, I've specially bought you a gift. I hope you like it."
"Why are you buying me a gift? That matter is already in the past. Please take the gift back. I appreciate your thoughtfulness." Liu Yifeng knew it wasn't easy for Xu Muqing, a woman raising a child alone, so he didn't want her to spend money unnecessarily.
However, Xu Muqing didn't give him a chance to refuse. She directly took a car key from her bag and handed it to him.
"I don't know what kind of car you like, so I bought this Porsche Cayenne at the 4S shop yesterday. I've also paid for the insurance, so you can drive it directly on the road."
Liu Yifeng stared at the car key in his hand, stunned for a moment. Then he reacted and quickly returned the key to Xu Muqing, "This gift is too valuable, I can't accept it!"
"Compared to my daughter's life, what is a car?" Xu Muqing did not take back the car key.
Since she intended to give it away, she never thought of taking it back.
"I did save your daughter, but that was a instinctive reaction. You don't need to give me any reward.
I will buy my own car, please take it back!" Liu Yifeng never expected any benefits from saving Yaoyao.
Besides, accepting a car from someone would make him feel like he was being kept, and he didn't want to be gossiped about.
"Mr. Liu, stop arguing with me. Since I bought it, you should accept it. Then we won't owe each other anything." Xu Muqing disliked owing favors, especially such a monumental one.
Liu Yifeng also refused to accept such a valuable gift. If it were just a gift worth a few hundred or a thousand, he might accept it.
But this was different. A Porsche Cayenne would cost at least over a million.
How could he, a grown man, have the nerve to accept such an expensive car!
But if he didn't accept it, Xu Muqing would surely not give up, which put him in a dilemma.
Just then, a familiar voice sounded in their ears.
