"Qin Jian, you're finally back. My ankles have gone numb." Tian Niu's loud voice instantly woke An Hao up.
She rubbed her eyes and as soon as she saw the entrance to the village, she insisted that Qin Jian shouldn't carry her any longer.
"You've injured your foot, and you can't just walk around carelessly now." Qin Jian refused to put her down, casting a cold glance at Tian Niu.
"But..."
"There's no buts, sister-in-law. Listen to Qin Jian, we are only a few steps away from home," Tian Niu hurriedly spoke in favor of Qin Jian, having just received a warning from him.
An Hao knew it was useless to say anything. If he wanted to carry her, he'd just carry her.
It was just that she'd feel somewhat embarrassed upon seeing the villagers.
Qin Jian carried An Hao into the village, walking towards the small bridge where he saw a person standing from afar.
