Gu Mian gazed at Long Sijue a little nervously. “Sir Jue, you should get some rest first. Why don’t you let me feed her the medicine?”

Gu Mian saw that Long Sijue’s complexion was also extremely pale. She overheard the conversation between Tang Zui and Si Mancheng. It seemed that he had also gotten hurt when attempting to rescue Qianxun. She just did not know which part of his body was hurt.

Long Sijue gazed at the young woman for a few seconds and realized that she had no intention of paying him any attention. He slowly rose and left. From the back, he looked extremely desolate.

When Gu Mian saw that, she immediately walked over and sat down. She then said, “Qianxun, I truly feel that Sir Jue does care about you. I heard that he also got hurt when trying to save you. His complexion looks scarily pale too.”

“Mian Mian, this part of my body hurts.” Su Qianxun pointed at her own chest, and tears rolled inadvertently down her cheeks. She had no idea what was wrong with herself either. “This is really strange, it has been so long since I felt this kind of pain.”

Gu Mian merely gazed at her sad face, as she did not know how to console her right now.

“Take your medicine first, then. The doctor came by just now and he said that the medicine is good for both your injury as well as your body.”

Su Qianxun swallowed the medicine obediently. She was well aware that she was in no position to behave immaturely.

Her life was never hers to begin with. Her life belonged to her brother and the entire Su family!

…..

Long Sijue stood outside the ward and smoked. However, he was using his left hand. His right arm was hanging by his side, and he was not moving it at all.

“Jue, your arm must be pretty badly injured since you pulled that car with your bare hands. Why don’t you get it checked first?” Si Mancheng looked worriedly at Long Sijue’s right arm.

“It’s not a big deal” Long Sijue extinguished the cigarette and walked towards Lan Qingcheng’s ward. Now that the people of the Lan family and the Long family were present, he had no choice but to show himself for a bit. Or else, the young woman might still be in danger.

Si Mancheng raised his hand and rubbed the spot between his eyebrows as he stared after Long Sijue. ‘I seriously felt more at ease in Africa. Ever since I came back, for some reason, it feels like nothing has been going right!’

…..

In the middle of the night, Tang Zui suddenly told Gu Mian to leave the ward. Even though Gu Mian was reluctant to leave, she did not know what tactic Tang Zui would come up with to torture her should she dare to disobey him.

Su Qianxun also knew that it would be inconvenient for Gu Mian to accompany her and be by her side all the time. So, she reassured Gu Mian that she would be fine by herself.

The moment Gu Mian exited the ward, she saw that Tang Zui was flirting with a young nurse who was putting on her makeup. She immediately stopped in her tracks, lowered her head and observed what was going on.

Tang Zui continued flirting with the young nurse. When he noticed that Gu Mian was merely standing there like a block of wood, he lost interest and let his target off the hook. He then said in annoyance, “Get your ass over here now! Why the heck are you standing there like an idiot?”

Gu Mian said nothing.

Tang Zui turned and left, and Gu Mian had no choice but to follow him. Neither of them uttered a single word, and there were several times where Gu Mian almost bumped into him.

By the time they exited the ward building, there was some distance between Gu Mian and Tang Zui. Just when Tang Zui had walked a short distance away from the vicinity of the hospital building, Gu Mian happened to raise her head. She saw a trash can falling from above, and it was about to land on Tang Zui’s skull!

Gu Mian did not hesitate at all as she charged forward quickly and pushed Tang Zui away.

Tang Zui had deliberately stopped to wait for her, and he staggered a few steps forward when Gu Mian pushed her all of a sudden. After that, he turned around and saw, wide-eyed, the rubbish bin that was descending from the sky. The rubbish bin slammed right into Gu Mian, and she collapsed to the floor.

At that moment, his heart skipped a beat!
