Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Nie Yufan’s heart skipped a beat. Without giving it a second thought, he bent over and carried the woman in his arms before telling An Yue, “You follow the police officer to make a statement first, while I’ll send her to the hospital.”
“But…” An Yue looked worried. She was reluctant to leave An Qi at that moment.
“Don’t worry. I’m around. Nothing will happen to her.” Nie Yunfan’s expression darkened as he spoke with affirmation.
An Yue was stunned and rooted to the spot. Before she could say anything, Nie Yunfan had carried An Qi and slipped out of her sight.
Looking at Nie Yunfan’s silhouette from a distance, An Yue sensed that something was wrong. However, her concerns for An Qi overshadowed this feeling.
Nie Yunfan rushed An Qi to a nearby hospital, where he watched helplessly at the side as doctors and nurses administered blood transfusion emergency treatment to the person whose face had turned as white as sheets and appeared extremely weak. His heart was clenching up. He was heartbroken and worried about her.
This was a completely new sensation for Nie Yunfan, so much so that he struggled to adjust to it.
While Nie Yunfan’s emotions and feelings were all in turmoil, An Yue was also in a difficult situation.
Zhao Youlin and the rest of her group received the news right after An Yue was taken to the police station.
At that time, Zhao Youlin had taken Joy to the Mu family and was chatting with the former master Mu, Su Ruixin, and Mu Xiaoyang. When Joy first saw the former master Mu, he was a bit terrified.
This was especially so because the former master was born with a solemn, intimidating face. He could certainly frighten young children if he appeared on the streets in the middle of the night. Joy was thought to be brave because he did not cry when he first saw him.
Joy initially behaved obediently in front of her former master Mu. However, with Su Ruixin’s help, he realized that the former master Mu was similar to Zhao Shunrong, who had a cold exterior but was passionate on the inside. The former master Mu appeared unfriendly, but he loved his family dearly.
With Zhao Shunrong as his pillar of strength, Joy soon relaxed his guard and took the initiative to speak with the former master Mu.
The former master Mu behaved as he usually did. However, his eyes softened whenever he placed his attention on Joy. Anyone could tell that the former master Mu adored Joy very much.
Initially, Zhao Youlin was a bit worried about this but was relieved when she saw this.
The people who were about to become a family were chatting incessantly and happily in Joy’s presence. From a distance, the atmosphere appeared cheerful and heartwarming. The atmosphere, however, did not last long and was soon broken by a sudden call.
“Youlin, what’s happening?” When Su Ruixin noticed that Zhao Youlin’s expression looked troubled as soon as she answered the call, she could not help but show her concern to her.
Zhao Youlin forced a smile at them and said in a low voice, “Sorry for the interruption. Something seems to have happened to my eldest sister-in-law. I have to take a trip down there. As for Joy… he would stay here with you first. Is it okay if I arrange someone to pick him up later?”
Su Ruixin and the rest of her group were initially disappointed because they expected Zhao Youlin to leave with Joy.
However, when they learned that Zhao Youlin had agreed to let Joy stay, it was like a dream came true for them. How could they possibly turn her down?
“Something has happened to your eldest sister-in-law, huh? Youlin, you better go there to have a look. You could leave Joy to us. We’ll take good care of him and won’t let him suffer any grievances. Save the hassle from arranging someone to pick him up. After all, I still have something concerning your wedding to discuss with your mother so I’ll personally send Joy over later.”
Zhao Youlin was rendered speechless as she observed Su Ruixin’s joyous expression. She reflected to herself. ‘Is she one of those typical mother-in-laws who would forget her daughter-in-law in the presence of her grandson? People who don’t know the context would think that you despise me, Madam Mu!’
Despite her heartfelt quips, Zhao Youlin was relieved that they adored Joy. She nodded at them and reminded Joy, “Joy, be a good boy. I have to leave first due to an emergency. Grandma Su would send you home later. Behave properly and avoid causing problems for Grandma Su and the rest of her group, okay?”
Even though Joy was reluctant to part with Zhao Youlin, he nodded obediently, “I’ll behave well. Please return home early, Mommy.”
Zhao Youlin smiled as she gave a peck on her son’s forehead. She politely bid the elders farewell before rising and preparing to leave.
At that moment, Mu Tingfeng rose and said in a low voice, “I’ll go with you.”
President Mu was well aware of Zhao Youlin’s temperament. Things that could cause a change in Zhao Youlin’s expression were certainly not trivial.
Zhao Youlin had intended to decline him. However, when she saw the hint of perseverance in Mu Tingfeng’s eyes, her faith was a little shaken, and she nodded.
They dashed over to the police station as quickly as they could. Han Yichen was getting out of his car at the same time they were. They exchanged silent glances before quickly walking in.
An Yue sat on a chair in the big hall, debating whether she should make a phone call and inquire about An Qi’s current situation. But, come to think of it, she did not have Nie Yunfan’s phone number!
Just as she was in a dilemma, she heard the sound of hasty footsteps rising from outside.
An Yue reflexively looked up and saw Zhao Youlin and the rest of her group walking toward her. She jerked up.
“Chen, Youlin…” An Yue’s tense nerves relaxed when she saw them and called them with tears in her eyes.
The moment Han Yiche got close to An Yue, he narrowed his eyes and sized her up. When he was assured that she was alright, he reached out his hand and snatched An Yue into his arms.
An Yue felt more at ease when she fell into his familiar embrace. The tears in her eyes could not help but flow and splatter on Han Yichen’s jacket.
“Chen, An Qi… An Qi…”
“What becomes of An Qi? Yue Yue, don’t get too worked up, speak slowly.” Zhao Youlin’s heart clenched when she heard An Yue sobbed. When she was on the phone before this, the person on the other line had informed her that something had happened to An Yue and she had been sent to the police station. Meanwhile, An Qi had been injured and taken to the hospital. The person had not specified the severity of her wound.
Zhao Youlin could not help but feel nervous when she saw An Yue burst into tears. She was afraid that An Qi had been seriously injured.
“An Qi… An Qi was stabbed by that woman because she rescued me. She bled a lot and Big Brother Nie has sent her to the hospital.” The next moment, An Yue suddenly looked like she recalled something and looked up from Han Yichen’s arms. She said anxiously, “Chen, I don’t have Big Brother Nie’s mobile phone number. Could you please assist me in contacting him to inquire about An Qi’s current situation?”
Han Yichen creased his eyebrows. He stretched out his hand and wiped away the tears on An Yue’s face as he said quietly, “Alright, I will. Don’t get so worked up..”
