She had just suffered a huge blow to her heart and felt extremely wronged. Anger built up inside of her as she flung open the car door and ran out.
Xiangyi anxiously opened his car door and hurried after her.
“Nuannuan!”
They were a junction—cars were coming and going, as the sound of horns continued blaring.
He did not blame her for jumping to conclusions. She must have really thought that he used her as a cover up.
As she ran, Nuannuan did not notice that the traffic light had just turned green. All she wanted was to cross the road.
It was not until that was a rapid honk followed by an ear-piercing brake that she suddenly realized a sports car speeding over from not far away!
Xiangyi saw the car approaching her and he quickly made a move!
Nuannuan’s face turned pale but she was frozen in place. She knew what to do but she could not dodge the car in time!
As death approached, familiar faces flashed through her mind. Her grandfather, Mommy, Brother, Sister-in-Law, and her favorite Xiangyi..
She thought she was going to meet God!
Right at the last moment, she felt something come over her and she felt herself pushed to the ground. She looked up and realized that she was enveloped in Xiangyi’s arms.
Though he tried to protect her as much as he could, the fall still grazed her arm and started to bleed slightly.
Traumatized by the car accident previously, her face turned even paler than ever.
Then, she heard a whole roar.
“What are you doing! Do you want to die?!”
Stunned, she slowly looked up with a blank face and saw Xiangyi’s angry face. She was so taken aback that she did notice how worried he was.
She had initially felt so wrong. But now all she felt was the shock from everything earlier and his yell that bean-sized tears flowed out of her eyes uncontrollably as she stared at the man holding her.
When he saw her tears, he knew that she had been really scared. His heart ached, and it spread to his chest as he felt the squeeze with each breath.
He pulled her into his arms and locked her in tightly. The tremble in his voice betrayed his worry towards her, “Don’t be so reckless next time.”
Shi Nuannuan remained silent, still slightly shocked.
“F*ck, are you looking for death?!”
The sports car whizzed over. Fortunately, the owner of the car had stopped the car in time. Otherwise, the consequences would have been unimaginable!
However, the driver could not help himself from winding down his window to yell at them as he passed.
Immediately after, more rapid honking came from the other side of the street.
The light had turned green for the left-turn lane Xiangyi’s car was in, blocking the cars behind. They could not help but press the horn a little irritably.
Xiangyi let go of her before helping her up as they walked in the direction of the car.
He put her in the front passenger seat before getting into in the driver’s seat. Then, he started the car, took a detour, and drove in the direction of his apartment.
He had originally planned to send her home, but with her current condition and her injured arm, she definitely could not go back just like that.
Shi Nuannuan remained terrifed the entire journey. He carried her upstairs and placed her on the sofa in the living room.
