An Ran looked at Mu Wanxin with excitement and admiration, listening to her recounting Mu Xingfeng’s participation in the National Professional Guard Team competition during his school years. Suddenly, they heard Shen Mengya’s shout not far away.
"Niuniu, come back, come back quickly..."
They saw Mu Wanxin’s little dog Niuniu had somehow broken free from Shen Mengya’s arms and was running wildly on the ground, heading straight towards the road.
Little Shen Mengya chased after the dog, calling its name, but the place they were at was a blind spot on the road where visibility was poor.
Just as Shen Mengya picked up the dog and turned to come back, a car turned the corner and headed straight towards her.
Mu Wanxin screamed in fright, while An Ran, acting on instinct, dashed forward and pushed Shen Mengya away...
The car’s sharp braking sound pierced the sky.
Everything happened so suddenly and quickly. Mu Xingfeng and Shen Wenxuan, driving from a short distance away, saw the scene clearly but were powerless to stop it.
Mu Xingfeng slammed on the brakes and stopped the car, then sprinted towards them.
The heartfelt shout carried a tremor, and his feet slipped twice.
He regretted it. He shouldn’t have left the three of them by the roadside; he should have kept her by his side at all times, never letting her out of his sight.
Mu Wanxin caught Shen Mengya, who had been pushed aside by An Ran, checking the little girl who was unharmed, and then hurried towards the car.
At that moment, Mu Xingfeng reached them. Seeing the person in front of the car, neither knew what to say.
This area was rather isolated and had snowed all night. The snow had not been cleared, so it was compacted by passing vehicles.
The car was not driving fast and braked in time. After An Ran pushed Shen Mengya away, she was bumped by the car’s front end and slid far on the ground.
The little girl now sat on the ground, excitedly playing with the snow.
Seeing Mu Xingfeng approaching, An Ran looked up with her small face, as if discovering a new world: "Instructor Mu, this road is so fun, like skating."
By now, the driver had also gotten out of the car. Seeing An Ran, he looked at her like she was crazy, his face extremely ugly: "What are you doing? If you want to die, don’t drag others down..."
"I see you’re asking for it."
Before the driver finished his sentence, he was grabbed by Shen Wenxuan from behind and punched in the face.
When Shen Mengya ran towards the road earlier, he had turned around and saw everything clearly.
His parents had a daughter late in life; Shen Mengya was twenty years younger than him. Her position in the family’s hearts was obvious. When he thought he was about to witness the scene he most dreaded, that slender figure rushed forward and pushed Shen Mengya to the roadside.
Shen Mengya was saved, but the girl fell in front of the car. Neither outcome was something he wanted to see.
Just as he reached the car, he heard the driver’s remark. How could he not be angry?
