CHAPTER 426: CHAPTER 426: CHRISTMAS "SURPRISE" (PART 6)

Sheng Jianan put Shen Yao in the car and went to the nearest hospital.

He had a dinner party today, and after it ended, he came out and walked towards the lobby when suddenly someone rushed towards him. Sheng Jianan was caught off guard and knocked over, and just as he was about to get angry, he heard a loud crashing sound and the exclamations of those around him.

Turning around, he realized that the crystal chandelier above the lobby had fallen and shattered on the ground, so the person who knocked him over actually saved him.

He looked down and saw that the person was gasping for breath, eyes full of panic, yet the first thing she said was, "Are you okay?"

Sheng Jianan shook his head, and someone nearby hurriedly came over to help them up, "Mr. Sheng, we’re really sorry, this is our responsibility, we startled you."

Sheng Jianan ignored those people and looked at Shen Yao, "Are you alright?"

Shen Yao was still a bit panicked but managed to force a smile at Sheng Jianan, "I’m fine... Ouch..."

"What’s wrong?"

"Nothing, maybe... twisted my foot."

Sheng Jianan looked down and saw that Shen Yao was wearing high-heeled boots, and one of the heels had broken off.

The crowd of onlookers continued to grow, Sheng Jianan frowned and stepped forward to carry Shen Yao out.

Although Shen Yao had recently been showing up often at the Sheng Family’s old house, in reality, Sheng Jianan and she hadn’t interacted much, partly because he rarely went back, and partly because he didn’t feel familiar with her.

Young Master Sheng never liked to take the initiative to interact with people, and even though he knew Shen Yao was "she" from back then, there was always an inexplicable sense of strangeness.

But since she got hurt saving him, Sheng Jianan didn’t want to be watched like a monkey here.

Carrying Shen Yao into the car, Sheng Jianan directly instructed, "To the hospital."

After speaking, he took out his phone and called Qiao Zi, "Something happened here, come and handle it."

The hospital was close, and they arrived quickly. Shen Yao had a sprained ankle, which wasn’t too serious. The doctor applied medicine and instructed some precautions.

Sheng Jianan leaned against the wall, watching Shen Yao wince in pain as the medicine was applied, her gentle face gritted in endurance.

For some reason, another face appeared in Sheng Jianan’s mind, the face of the woman who seemed to endure the pain of treatment in the same way.

Clearly in pain, yet stubbornly biting lips to endure, not making a sound.

But there was a difference, Shen Yao was gentle and endearing, her frowned expression evoking pity, while Tang Yanqi was calm and quiet, driving him to madness.

Right? Obviously in so much pain, why pretend to be strong?

"Mr. Sheng, Miss Shen’s injury is not serious; she just needs some rest, and as long as she’s careful not to strain it further, she’ll be fine."

Sheng Jianan’s drifting thoughts were pulled back by the doctor, and he nodded, "I understand."

He straightened up and walked over to Shen Yao’s bedside, looking at the bandage on her ankle, "I’ll inform the Operations Department that you don’t need to go to the company for the next two days."

Shen Yao gently smiled, "Thank you, but as the Operations Department Director, I’d directly ask you for leave, and besides, tomorrow is the weekend."

Sheng Jianan was slightly taken aback and smiled, "Is that so? Then approved, take a good rest, it’s considered a workplace injury."

The doctor prescribed some medicine for Shen Yao, which Sheng Jianan took, and then said, "I’ll take you home."

"Thank you."
