CHAPTER 38: CHAPTER 38: CAR ACCIDENT, FIRST ENCOUNTER

"Can’t be bothered talking to you!" Lu Hao tossed out a sentence and then walked away.

...

Sang Yu had just handed in her manuscript and was leaving the newspaper office.

Suddenly, she saw a young girl running onto the street, and at that moment, a car was speeding towards her from afar.

Sang Yu’s pupils shrank, and she immediately sprinted in the direction of the young girl.

As the car approached, Sang Yu gritted her teeth and grabbed the girl, rolling them to the other side.

A scream erupted from the crowd.

Luckily, she was wearing pants today, but Sang Yu could clearly feel her knee seemed to have been scraped.

A burning pain.

The girl in her arms suddenly started crying.

"Are you okay, little sister?"

The young girl cried in fear and didn’t speak.

At this moment, another girl walked over.

"Are you okay?" Xu Ru’an helped the young girl and Sang Yu up.

Sang Yu shook her head, "I’m fine, I just don’t know how the little sister is."

Xu Ru’an squatted down and looked at the girl in front of her, "Little sister, are you okay?"

The girl kept crying and didn’t respond, leaving Xu Ru’an quite frustrated.

Not even saying where she was uncomfortable.

"Yaya, Yaya." A well-dressed woman quickly walked over to Sang Yu and the others.

"Yaya, Yaya are you alright? Yaya?" The woman embraced the young girl, asking urgently.

"Grandma."

"Yaya, are you hurt?" The woman examined the girl.

The girl shook her head, "No, Grandma, I’m scared."

The woman sighed in relief.

Only then did she look at Sang Yu and Xu Ru’an, "Thank you so much, if it weren’t for you, I wouldn’t know how to explain to my son and daughter-in-law."

The woman sincerely expressed her deep gratitude to Sang Yu and Xu Ru’an.

Xu Ru’an said, "It wasn’t me, it was this comrade who saved her."

Sang Yu was surprised by Xu Ru’an’s behavior, this woman looked about forty years old, dressed very exquisitely.

One look and you could tell she was wealthy.

Even if she offered some small favors, many would want to receive them.

Especially for saving someone’s life like this.

But Xu Ru’an was honest enough to say it wasn’t related to her.

This made Sang Yu admire Xu Ru’an a bit more.

"Young lady, thank you indeed. Are you hurt?" The woman looked at Sang Yu and spoke with sincerity.

Sang Yu shook her head, "I’m fine."

"I’m sorry, are you alright?" The person from the car came down and asked after looking at them.

He seemed a bit scared and guilty.

"How are you driving?" Although knowing the child running onto the road was wrong, the woman still instinctively criticized.

The man lowered his head, "I’m truly sorry, I was in a rush to pick someone up, so I wasn’t paying much attention. I’m very sorry."

He was probably a driver.

The woman saw the man’s sincere apology and didn’t complain too much.

"Be more careful next time when driving," the woman said.

"Yes, yes, I’m really sorry." The man kept apologizing.

"Alright, let’s go." The woman waved her hand.

Only then did the man leave.

The woman regained her solemn demeanor from earlier, and said to Sang Yu and Xu Ru’an, "Ladies, let me treat you to a meal,

it’s a way to thank you for saving my granddaughter."

"No need, madam, it was just a small act of kindness," Sang Yu refused.

"How can it be just a small act of kindness? You saved my granddaughter, this life-saving grace, not to mention one meal, even ten meals wouldn’t be too much."

Sang Yu: "Really, no need, madam. Besides, I have matters to attend to at home, I’m really sorry."

"Oh, I see, alright, could you give me an address?"

Since she had matters at home, the woman couldn’t insist.

But leaving an address would allow her to express gratitude in person when she had time.

Left with no choice, Sang Yu took out the paper and pen she carried with her and wrote an address for the woman.

"Alright, I got it. Thanks so much again."

"Yaya, quickly thank the sister,"

The young girl sniffled, "Thank you, thank you sister."

Sang Yu smiled lightly, "No need to thank me."

The woman then left with the young girl.

Xu Ru’an hadn’t left yet, she looked at Sang Yu with admiration in her eyes, "Hello, my name is Xu Ru’an."

Xu Ru’an extended her hand towards Sang Yu.

Sang Yu also extended her hand and gently shook it, "Hello, my name is Sang Yu."

"Your name is very nice, and you’re also very beautiful," Xu Ru’an’s words were very straightforward.

A constant smile on her face.

Giving off a very sunny vibe, having been with her for such a short time, she felt very comfortable.

She seemed to have a healing ability.

That’s the type of person she admired the most,

"Thank you, you too."

Xu Ru’an smiled slightly, "I hope we can meet again."

If she didn’t have to hurry back to school, she certainly would have chatted with Sang Yu.

Because she felt Sang Yu was a person with many stories.

"Okay," Sang Yu said.

The two of them walked off in different directions.

Sang Yu watched Xu Ru’an’s disappearing silhouette, her gaze slightly dazed.

After a while, she gathered herself and walked towards home.

But as soon as she moved, her leg throbbed with pain, and her arm hurt as well.

It seemed she had accidentally scraped her skin.

She limped back home.

Jiang Jingming saw Sang Yu hobbling and immediately rushed forward, not caring if he pulled on his own wound.

"What’s wrong with you?" His eyes quickly filled with panic and he spoke with a hint of tension.

"I’m fine."

Jiang Jingming furrowed his brow and helped her onto the sofa, saying, "Wait for me."

Then went to the drawer to take out the home medicine box.

"Where?" He walked over to Sang Yu, his eyes serious as he looked at her.

Sang Yu suddenly felt a bit guilty and said, "Arm and knee."

These should be the places.

Jiang Jingming pursed his lips, "I apologize."

He cut through her sleeve with scissors.

Seeing the wounds caused by friction, the man furrowed his brows even tighter.

"It might hurt a bit, bear with it," he said gently, like comforting a child.

Sang Yu felt her face heat up, "Okay."

Jiang Jingming first cleaned her wound with a cotton swab.

Even though she was mentally prepared, the slight sting still made Sang Yu flinch a bit.

The man’s movements paused for a moment, then became even gentler.

Sang Yu watched the man seriously tending to her wounds.

He was dressed in dark gray loungewear, white bandages were completely covered by the clothes, as if she had forgotten, the man in front of her was still a patient, at this moment, he seemed more like a young nobleman.

Looking closely, she noticed his lashes were long, and beneath them was a pair of deep-set eyes.

Beneath the high nose bridge were thin lips that looked soft.

At this moment, his expression was serious and gentle, as if handling a treasure.

It made her quite incredulous.

"Does it hurt?" Suddenly the man lifted his head.

Sang Yu was caught off guard and met the man’s clear eyes, she seemed to see some concern in them.

She hurriedly averted her gaze and said, "No, not painful."
