“If you hadn’t blocked that shot, I’m afraid I would be the one lying here. Or perhaps, we would have already died on that island.”
He handed the breakfast to Xiangyi.
“You need to get well quickly. We still have a lot of things to do.” Shi Yuting’s eyes turned cold as he spoke.
Upon meeting his gaze, Xiangyi instantly understood what he was referring to.
Indeed, after Yuting returned safely, the first thing he had to deal with was Shi Tiannan.
“Yes, sir.”
He nodded, then picked up his breakfast and ate it slowly.
There were many types of food in his breakfast plate, including steamed buns, porridge, and steamed dumplings. Xiangyi could not move his right hand, so he could only use his left hand to pick up a steamed bun to eat.
Shi Yuting fell deep into thought as he watched Xiangyi ate.
Halfway through a bun, Shi Yuting suddenly spoke.
“Nuannuan was in a car accident.”
Xiangyi stopped eating as he felt a jolt through his heart. He looked at Yuting in shock.
A car accident? How could that be? She was just here last night!
He felt anxious and uneasy, as if his throat was being strangled. He wanted to ask more, but could not make a sound.
Shi Yuting saw the anxiety in his eyes.
“She was here last night, wasn’t she?”
Xiangyi nodded. “Yes.”
“The accident happened last night. Nuannuan’s driving skills aren’t bad. Something must have happened for her to suddenly make a turn without signaling first.”
What Shi Yuting wanted to know most was what happened between her and Xiangyi at the hospital.
When they were at home, she had clearly sent him a text message asking him to help cover for her if their grandfather asked about her in the morning. This meant that she had planned to spend the night in the hospital. So, why would she go leave the hospital in the middle of the night?
Did something happen between her and Xiangyi?
His pitch-black eyes stared fixedly at Xiangyi. From his expression, he seemed to have sensed that something must have happened between the two of them last night.
“Is she… alright?”
Shi Yuting looked at him for a few seconds before saying, “She’s still unconscious.”
Xiangyi’s hand that was holding half a bun tightened slightly. An impulse to rush to Nuannuan’s side arose spontaneously, but he managed to restrained himself.
“How could she have been in a car accident?”
“I’ll have to ask you that,” said Shi Yuting.
Hearing this, Xiangyi looked at him.
Shi Yuting continued, “Though I value you highly, if what happened to Nuannuan was caused by you, our friendship will not be enough to hold me back.”
His words surprised Xiangyi.
Shi Yuting stood up.
“She’s fine, you don’t have to worry too much. Rest well, I’m leaving.”
Xiangyi fell into a daze and closed his eyes in regret!
On the other side.
Shi Nuannuan only woke up in a daze around nine in the morning.
Looking at the snow-white ceiling, she was a little confused at first, then the memories flooded into her mind.
Did she get into a car accident?
“Nuannuan! You’re finally awake!” Shen Lanzhi’s eyes started to well up with tears as she excitedly rushed to her daughter’s side the moment she saw the latter wake up.
“Mommy…” Shi Nuannuan called out softly as she tried to sit up.
“Don’t move, don’t move!” Shen Lanzhi quickly stopped her. “I’ll help you.”
