Chapter 213 It’s Snowing
Wang Xiucheng didn't eat quickly; it was almost an hour later before he let out a burp and looked up.
He noticed that Scarlett Johansson just kept watching him, and she rarely spoke while he was eating.
Wang Xiucheng discovered that Scarlett Johansson was a very quiet person.
"Can I ask you a question?" Scarlett Johansson asked after seeing that Wang Xiucheng had finished eating.
"You ask."
Scarlett Johansson looked at Wang Xiucheng, and after a few seconds, said, "Why didn't you accept Taylor?"
Wang Xiucheng smiled upon hearing this.
It's not surprising that Scarlett Johansson and Taylor Swift know each other, and are even friends.
“I don’t like her personality,” Wang Xiucheng said bluntly.
"What's her personality like?" Scarlett Johansson asked, puzzled.
"He's energetic and outgoing," Wang Xiucheng said. "I prefer quiet people."
Wang Xiucheng looked at Scarlett Johansson's eyes and said, "Like my sister."
He's flirting with me again.
Scarlett Johansson looked somewhat helpless.
"I've finished eating and I'm going back now. Are you staying here a little longer, sister?"
Wang Xiucheng unscrewed a bottle of water and drank half of it.
"Of course not. If I hadn't met you, I would have gone back long ago," Scarlett replied irritably.
"Let's go then, I'll take you home." Wang Xiucheng stood up first.
Scarlett Johansson also stood up, but the next moment, she cried out and sat down again.
"what happened?"
Wang Xiucheng noticed that Scarlett Johansson had beads of sweat on her forehead and looked unwell.
Scarlett Johansson glared at Wang Xiucheng. "You really don't know?"
Wang Xiucheng looked completely bewildered. "Should I...know?"
"Don't you remember what you stepped on during the game?"
Upon hearing this, Wang Xiucheng was suddenly taken aback.
He remembered that near the end of the first quarter, he had moved outside the sideline and seemed to have stepped on something.
He didn't pay much attention to it at the time.
"Did I step on your foot?" Wang Xiucheng asked tentatively.
Scarlett nodded helplessly.
"Why didn't you say so sooner?" Wang Xiucheng complained to her.
If Scarlett had mentioned this on the spot, the Nets' team doctor would have treated her already.
It's almost midnight now, and at least five or six hours have passed since I was stepped on.
This woman is incredibly patient.
"Come on, I have a first-aid kit. Let me show you. If you need anything, I'll have Lao Yu come and take care of it for you."
Among the Nets' medical team is a Chinese American, whom Wang Xiucheng calls Lao Yu.
Wang Xiucheng can call him anytime if needed.
He's called the Nets' team doctor, but he's actually the Nets' personal physician assigned to Wang Xiucheng.
Wang Xiucheng helped the limping Scarlett Johansson into the elevator in full view of everyone.
Ma Wei and his group scanned the people in the restaurant, and seeing that no one was trying to take out their phones to take pictures, they withdrew their murderous gazes.
Wu Di and Wu Jia looked at each other, then simultaneously turned to Ma Wei, "So what do we do?"
"Go back and play cards." Ma Wei shrugged.
The elevator quickly arrived at the top floor, and Wang Xiucheng and his companion entered the room.
"Please sit here."
After settling Scarlett in, Wang Xiucheng went inside.
Scarlett Johansson's eyes swept over the large apartment with surprise.
Both the decor and the layout were exactly the apartment she had dreamed of.
Scarlett was particularly drawn to the large platform in the distance, which made her eager to go and take a closer look.
The platform also has several large sofas and chairs, and some green plants on both sides that are hard to tell if they are real or fake, which really touched Scarlett Johansson's heart.
This decorating style really suits her taste.
If this were her apartment, she probably wouldn't be able to decorate it any better.
Wang Xiucheng returned quickly with his medicine kit.
Squatting on the ground, Wang Xiucheng carefully took off Scarlett Johansson's slingback dress.
“I can do it myself,” Scarlett Johansson said, her face slightly flushed and a little embarrassed.
"do not move."
Wang Xiucheng was a little angry, so he raised his voice.
This sound stunned Scarlett Johansson.
He was yelling at himself!
Wang Xiucheng saw that her big toe was indeed bleeding from being stepped on, and by this time it had scabbed over and stuck to the skin.
Wang Xiucheng carefully cut open the sieve with scissors and then took out iodine to disinfect it.
Scarlett Johansson's face was as red as an apple.
She never imagined that one day a man would treat her like this.
Even Colin wouldn't do something like this.
A dozen minutes later, Wang Xiucheng finally stood up.
"It's nothing serious, there shouldn't be any fractures or anything, it's just that the toenail was stepped on and is bleeding, it should be fine in a few days."
"However, if you feel unwell, you should still go to the hospital."
Wang Xiucheng said this while packing the first-aid kit.
“Thank you,” Scarlett Johansson said softly.
"what?"
Wang Xiucheng seemed not to hear, so he looked up and asked.
Scarlett Johansson knew he had heard her when she saw Wang Xiucheng's deliberate expression, so she stopped replying.
The atmosphere suddenly froze, and the two of them fell silent.
"It's time for me to go back."
A dozen seconds later, Scarlett Johansson stood up and spoke.
Although her toes still hurt, she felt she couldn't stay there any longer.
The atmosphere was strange, and she was a little scared.
Just as she was about to leave, enduring the pain in her feet, Wang Xiucheng suddenly exclaimed in surprise, "It's snowing?"
Scarlett Johansson looked up when she heard this, and sure enough, snowflakes were falling outside the window.
Although it melted quickly after falling on the window.
"Let's go see the snow."
Wang Xiucheng suddenly grabbed Scarlett Johansson's hand and led her towards the large platform.
For a moment, Scarlett Johansson felt her mind go completely blank.
Scarlett Johansson initially wanted to refuse, but for some reason, she let him pull her onto the platform.
A snowflake landed right on her eyelid.
The slight chill didn't sober her up; instead, it made her even more confused.
The snowflakes suddenly grew larger and larger, and a flurry of goose-feather snowflakes fell from the sky.
Almost instantly, Lower Manhattan was enveloped in a blanket of white snowflakes.
A row of searchlights in the distant square shone directly into the sky, and snowflakes entering the range of the searchlights seemed to form a snow barrier.
Snowflakes covered Wang Xiucheng's head, collar, and even eyebrows.
Looking at the person so close to her, Scarlett Johansson's breathing suddenly quickened.
She grabbed Wang Xiucheng and pulled him in front of her. "You...you deliberately approached me, didn't you?"
Wang Xiucheng sensed her presence and nodded subconsciously.
"Are you serious?"
Scarlett Johansson asked again, clinging to the last shred of her sanity.
“Serious, as serious as the serious snow in New York.” Wang Xiucheng nodded.
At this moment, the volcano, amidst a sky full of snowflakes, finally erupted!
