The car drove off, and Mu Qinglan sat in her seat, quietly reaching into her pocket, pulling out a number and pressing the dial key, then quickly hanging up after it connected...
"Tsk!" Yu Sangwan sat in the back seat, feeling like she was on pins and needles.
Lu Jinxuan frowned and looked at her through the rearview mirror, "Can you sit still?"
"Hmm?" Yu Sangwan glanced at Mu Qinglan sitting upright in the front passenger seat, and mocked, "Yeah! I’m all awkward and can’t sit properly, unlike Miss Mu, right?"
Mu Qinglan pursed her lips into a subtle smile, "Not at all, Miss Yu is quite the jokester."
As she spoke, she looked affectionately at Lu Jinxuan.
This scene made Yu Sangwan very restless, and she frowned, exclaiming, "I’m thirsty, is there any water?"
Mu Qinglan noticed that there were two bottles of water on the center console. She casually took one and handed it to Yu Sangwan, "Here, Miss Yu..."
"Thank you." Yu Sangwan expressed her gratitude and was about to take it when Lu Jinxuan snatched it away with one hand.
"You..." Yu Sangwan was furious, "What’s that for?"
Lu Jinxuan furrowed his brow and looked at her helplessly, shaking his head, and then handed her another bottle, "This one I drank from, the one just now was unopened, give it to Qinglan."
With those words, both Mu Qinglan and Yu Sangwan were stunned.
Though it was a small gesture, it clearly distinguished the closeness. What Lu Jinxuan drank... was only for Yu Sangwan.
Yu Sangwan blankly took the water, feeling a bit of sweetness inexplicably rise in her heart, and an involuntary smile curved her lips.
Lu Jinxuan noticed her little expressions through the rearview mirror and shook his head with a silent laugh... How naïve and simple!
The car was driving forward, and this was supposed to be a campus street, usually not busy with traffic.
However, at that mont, a large truck suddenly rushed out from the front at high speed, seemingly out of control. The driver kept honking the horn, "Get out of the way! The brakes failed, get out of the way..."
The crowd and vehicles suddenly scattered.
Lu Jinxuan’s expression tightened, and he gripped the steering wheel.
"Jinxuan, watch out!" Mu Qinglan suddenly lunged toward him, screaming as she tried to shield him.
The steering wheel was nudged, and the car began to sway out of control.
Lu Jinxuan realized it, but it was already too late! The large truck was heading straight for them, and it was going to hit soon!
He tightened his grip, quickly turned the steering wheel, and the car rushed toward the side of the road! This was near Tokyo University, where rows of large trees were planted at the entrance, so it was inevitable the car would crash into one.
"Ah..." Mu Qinglan hugged her head tightly in fright, screaming out loud.
In the back seat, Yu Sangwan’s situation was no better; at such a thrilling and life-and-death mont, the only person she could think of was Lu Jinxuan, "Jin..."
However, before she could open her mouth, Lu Jinxuan had already thrown himself at Mu Qinglan, hugging her tightly in his arms, shouting, "Qinglan!"
’Bang’!
The next second, a violent crash happened, feeling like the world was collapsing!
Yu Sangwan’s eyes went blank, feeling her body being thrown up heavily, with her head suffering a severe blow, then being thrown back down violently! A piercing pain between her ribs made it feel like her lungs were pierced; she imdiately struggled to breathe... her vision darkened, and she fainted.
"Wanwan!"
The car steadied, and Lu Jinxuan released Mu Qinglan, kicked the door open, and quickly maneuvered to the back seat.
But the car door was stuck.
"Qinglan, call right now!"
Mu Qinglan was in the best condition among the three; with Lu Jinxuan shielding her and due to their position, she only suffered minor scratches.
Lu Jinxuan’s head was bleeding from sowhere, blood was flowing down both sides of his temple, and his thigh was blood-red, alarming!
"Jinxuan, how are you doing?" Mu Qinglan was frightened out of her wits, pulling at Lu Jinxuan, "Let see, is it serious?"
Lu Jinxuan was desperately trying to open the back door, too anxious to comprehend her concern.
He shouted at her impatiently, "Call right now! What are you doing?"
"Oh!" Mu Qinglan hurriedly nodded, "I’ll call, I’ll call right away, don’t be mad!"
"Wanwan!" Lu Jinxuan desperately tried to wrench open the car door, and through the window, he could see Yu Sangwan lying there with her eyes closed, unresponsive!
Mu Qinglan finished the call and ca to persuade Lu Jinxuan, "Jinxuan, don’t waste your effort... the police and ambulance are on their way!"
Lu Jinxuan ignored her, not stopping for a mont, the blood and sweat flowing together down his temples. The car door didn’t budge, making him grit his teeth and curse, "SHIT! Wanwan... Wanwan, don’t be afraid!"
"Jinxuan... stop wasting your efforts!" Mu Qinglan approached to try and pull him away.
"Get away!"
Lu Jinxuan raised his arm, actually throwing her to the ground. At this mont, his eyes were red with anxiety; he knew he couldn’t do nothing! Yu Sangwan had been injured in his car, and he had let that happen!
"Ugh..." Mu Qinglan lay on the ground, her elbow scraped and bleeding profusely.
A tallic clang was heard, and the car door fell off! Lu Jinxuan had forcibly removed the car door with his hand!
"Ah!" He exhaled sharply, dragged his injured leg into the cabin, and carefully pulled Yu Sangwan out, "Wanwan, Wanwan..."
Yu Sangwan’s face was pale, her eyes tightly shut, completely unconscious.
Lu Jinxuan’s Adam’s apple bobbed, his heart racing, "Wanwan, don’t scare ! What’s wrong? Wake up, quickly! Wanwan..."
He lowered his head, his thin lips pressing against Yu Sangwan’s, but this ti, his breath had no effect!
Not far away, police sirens and ambulance whistles were approaching.
Amidst the noisy crowd, dical personnel rushed over, "Make way, make way..."
"Take this lady onto the car! Prepare to do a lung puncture, it’s a pneumothorax!"
"Sir, you’re also seriously injured..."
"Miss, please get on the vehicle too..."
Amidst the chaotic commotion, everyone boarded the ergency vehicle and rushed to the hospital.
At the entrance of the hospital ergency room, Tang Yueze was persuading Lu Jinxuan.
"Young Master, please listen to , take care of yourself too, okay?"
Lu Jinxuan’s forehead was no longer bleeding, but his thigh seed more seriously injured, still a wet ss. However, he still shook his head, "I have to wait for her to co out safely."
"Young Master!" Tang Yueze was extrely anxious, "I will wait here! Miss Yu has doctors and nurses, she will be fine! What if she’s unhard, but you collapse?"
"..." Lu Jinxuan’s face was sullen, his thin lips pressed tightly together, shaking his head without saying another word.
"Ah!" Tang Yueze was helpless, his brows furrowed, only able to pray for Yu Sangwan to co out safely as soon as possible.
The door to the ergency room opened, with a doctor walking out in front.
"..." Lu Jinxuan imdiately approached, "How is she..."
The doctor nodded, "No major issues. This car accident wasn’t severe, the tree branch had so cushioning effect... The patient has a pneumothorax with slight rib fractures, otherwise, she’s fine. Transfer her to the ward, and take care of recovery."
"..." Lu Jinxuan breathed a sigh of relief and felt like he could not stand steadily.
"Young Master!" Tang Yueze hurriedly supported him, "Now, can you comfortably go deal with your wounds?"
Lu Jinxuan nodded, "Okay."
Following Tang Yueze for a check-up, it turned out that the most serious injuries for Lu Jinxuan were not on his head or thigh; those were just soft tissue contusions, which only needed so cleaning, suturing, and bandaging. The serious injuries were, unexpectedly, on his hands.
"This..."
The doctor, seeing his nearly deford hands, was inexplicably shocked, "How did you do this? You’ve almost torn your ligants! This is because you’re young, had you been older, your hands would be useless!"
Lu Jinxuan frowned, earlier he had only thought about taking the car door off, not considering too much else.
"This requires repositioning, and in the short term, avoid heavy lifting, no fine movents... It’s best not to use chopsticks, use a spoon if you eat! It’s best to have soone at ho to take care of you."
Listening to the doctor’s words, Tang Yueze was extrely anxious, but Lu Jinxuan still appeared indifferent, as if nothing mattered.
In the VIP ward, after dealing with his wounds, Lu Jinxuan went to accompany Yu Sangwan.
Yu Sangwan hadn’t yet awoken from the anesthesia, remaining unconscious for the ti being.
"Wanwan." Lu Jinxuan gently held her with his bandaged hand, slowly bringing it to his face, "Luckily, luckily... you’re okay."
His gaze dropped to the drainage tube on Yu Sangwan’s chest, which had to stay in her body for two more days.
Lu Jinxuan’s heart suddenly ached, his brows furrowing as he murmured, "Does it hurt?"
His thin lips occasionally brushed her fingers, his eyes full of sympathy and pity.
"Young Master." Tang Yueze pushed the door open, standing behind him and speaking softly, "Miss Mu has finished her check-up, her body is mostly fine, minor injuries have been treated, but... her brain was still concussed, requiring hospital observation, will you go see her?"
This was exactly what worried Lu Jinxuan the most, he had taken such great care to awaken Mu Qinglan. Earlier, he had acted so recklessly to prevent all his previous efforts from being in vain! After all, only Mu Qinglan knew what happened on the day his brother had the accident.
"Okay, I’ll go have a look."
Lu Jinxuan nodded, got up, and left.
In the ward, Yu Sangwan’s eyelids twitched lightly, and she woke up.
"Mmm..."
Letting out a faint groan, the strongest sensation was the pain in her chest and under her ribs.
The nurse was replacing her IV and, seeing her awake, smiled, "You’re awake? How are you feeling?"
"It’s okay." Yu Sangwan forced a smile, "What’s my condition?"
"Pneumothorax, rib contusion, the car accident wasn’t serious, so the injuries are minor, there won’t be any issues, don’t worry." The nurse patiently explained.
Yu Sangwan nodded gratefully, "Thank you."
She recalled, at the mont of the accident, Lu Jinxuan had recklessly thrown himself towards Mu Qinglan!
"Ah..."
Yu Sangwan shook her head wearily and sighed, giving up! If there had been even the slightest hope before, after this incident... it should be abandoned! They say only in life and death monts do you see a person’s true heart. Lu Jinxuan’s true heart... was crystal clear!
