Chapter 54: Chapter 54 You Were Injured Because of Me

“No, I’ve already come to my senses.” Su Zixi smiled faintly, her voice slightly hoarse. “This jacket, I was originally going to return it to Su Lianxi. Since you saw it, it’s better to return it to its rightful owner directly.”
After saying that, she turned to leave.
But Ning Yichen grabbed her wrist.
Su Zixi trembled slightly, looking at him blandly, “What, do you still want to settle scores with me?”
Ning Yichen looked at her calm, indifferent face and suddenly felt a tightness in his chest. He didn’t know why he suddenly reached out to stop her. Settle scores? The jacket was already back in his hands. He had no reason to.
He just had an instinctive feeling that he couldn’t let her leave just like that.
Su Zixi, however, didn’t want to continue to stalemate with him. She pursed her lips and said, “If there’s nothing else, could you let go? My competition is about to start.”
“You…” he hesitated to speak.
Su Zixi looked up at him but found his gaze suddenly shifted behind her, and his expression changed.
The piercing sound of a motorcycle engine roared nearby. Su Zixi realized, but before she could react, Ning Yichen suddenly pulled her into his arms and turned around… His body trembled violently, and a look of pain crossed his face.
By the roadside, a motorcycle and its rider crashed to the ground!
Su Zixi also slammed into the man’s chest. She saw his tightly knit brows and trembling eyelashes, her heart quivering slightly.
“Ning Yichen?” Her voice was filled with fear.
“I’m fine,” he said hoarsely, letting go of her and turning towards the rider on the ground, his voice icy, “How are you driving?”
The other person crawled up angrily from the ground, “How am I driving? Do you own this road? Blocking the way and blaming me?”
Ning Yichen’s face darkened. He didn’t seem adept at such arguments and simply pulled out his phone.
The motorcyclist, seeing Ning Yichen dressed well and driving a luxury car, knew he couldn’t win this, so he quickly picked up his motorcycle and sped off.
Ning Yichen put away his phone after seeing this, but turned to see Su Zixi’s pale face.
“You’re bleeding,” Su Zixi’s lips trembled slightly, looking at his right leg, “You got hit there.”
Ning Yichen tried to move and indeed felt sharp pain in his calf.
“It’s nothing serious, just a scratch,” he said lightly, “You should go to your competition.”
Su Zixi looked at him, then suddenly made a decision, “I’ll go with you to the hospital.”
Ning Yichen sneered, “Su Zixi, don’t misunderstand. I saved you just out of reflex, nothing more.”
Su Zixi suddenly laughed softly and opened the passenger door, “I know. Get in the car, I’ll drive you to the hospital.”
Years ago, he had saved Su Lianxi, a complete stranger. Naturally, he wouldn’t just stand by and watch her get hit by a motorcycle today.
Ning Yichen frowned, a look of suspicion in his eyes.
“I didn’t misunderstand, but you got hurt because of me. I can’t just ignore that,” Su Zixi said calmly, “You definitely can’t drive now. I’m a competent driver, don’t worry.”
“But your competition is about to start,” Ning Yichen couldn’t help but remind her.
“I’m aware,” Su Zixi’s fingers slowly clenched, but her tone remained calm.
