The lighter also flew out, hitting the ground and extinguishing itself.
The sudden turn of events not only left Jian Yufei dumbfounded but also left Bi Shichang in disbelief!
He got rid of the people following him at great pains, seizing today’s opportunity, only to fall short at the last minute!
At this moment, all he wanted to do was to get up and escape. But the man who overwhelmed him moved quickly, punching him in the face. Bi Shichang passed out.
Jian Yufei looked towards the man who had saved her life and was stunned.
Xiao Lang also seemed a bit surprised. He straightened up and walked over to her, reaching out a hand, “Are you okay?”
When Ruan Tianling pushed open the hospital room door, he saw Jian Yufei sitting on the hospital bed, her hair disheveled.
She was facing the sky outside the window, her back to him.
Jian Yufei seemed lonely and desolate at that moment. Ruan Tianling, for some unknown reason, didn’t like her looking .
He closed the door, walked quietly to her side, sat down next to her, and took her hand. Seeing the gauze wrapped around her hands, his brows furrowed slightly.
“Does it hurt? Are there any other injuries?”
Jian Yufei withdrew her gaze, glanced indifferently at him, and pulled her hand back, “Don’t worry, I wasn’t burnt to death.”
Ruan Tianling’s brows frowned deeper, “Don’t worry, I will surely not let Bi
Shichang get away with hurting you! ”
Jian Yufei clenched her fists slightly, the pain in her palm still failing to obscure the tremors in her innermost being.
Thinking of the terrifying scene earlier, she still felt residual fear.
Looking at the man beside her, she had many questions to ask him, but swallowed them all.
“What’s wrong?” Ruan Tianling stroked her head, asking her with concern.
“I’m fine, let’s go. I can be discharged now.” She got up and was the first to walk towards the door.
Ruan Tianling stared complexly at her retreating figure with his dark eyes, and also got up to leave. On the way home, both of them were silent and the atmosphere was overwhelmingly stifling.
Ruan Anguo, who had been anxiously waiting for their return at home, saw them walk in and immediately rushed over to ask Jian Yufei worriedly, “Yufei, how are you doing? Are you injured anywhere?”
Seeing her grandfather caring so much about her, a warm current flowed through Jian Yufei’s heart.
She smiled slightly, “Grandfather, don’t worry, I’m fine. It’s just a little scrape on my hand, I was just a little scared.”
The old man was finally reassured when he confirmed that she was truly alright.
“That’s good, you should go upstairs and rest. Don’t worry about the rest, your grandfather will handle it. You won’t suffer in vain.”
“Thank you, Grandfather.” Jian Yufei expressed her gratitude.
Ruan Anguo waved his hand with a smile: “We’re a family, you don’t need to be so polite. Tianling, you take Yufei upstairs to rest and comfort her so that she won’t overthink things.”
“Yes, Grandfather.”, Ruan Tianling replied, nodding his head.
The two returned to their bedroom and Jian Yufei went into the bathroom to take a shower after picking out a nightdress, ignoring Ruan Tianling completely.
The man had a deep look in his eyes as he sat on the bed waiting for her to come out.
In the bathroom, Jian Yufei vigorously scrubbed the residual smell of gasoline from her body. The gauze wrapped around her palm was wet, the wound reopened, and blood seeped out from it bit by bit.
Her brows furrowed tightly in pain, but she gritted her teeth, removing the gauze and throwing it into the trash can.
Ignoring the wound on her palm, she took the shower sponge and scrubbed her body forcefully. Tears flowed from her eyes as she washed, only to be quickly washed away by the water..
