Dressed as a Man, I Became Tycoon's Sweetheart-Chapter 128 - Chen Xin Rupture
Chapter 128: Chapter 128 Chen Xin Rupture
“Quick, put out the fire! Put out the fire!”
“That boy ran in there!”
“It’s over, it’s over, the fire is so big, now both of them are likely in great danger…”
Thick, choking smoke obscured all vision, but Gu Chen heard Ning Xiner’s faint cries for help. He lay on the ground, dragging her out a little at a time by the car door, “Sister, Sister I’m here, don’t be afraid, I’ve come to save you.”
“Sister, hang on!”
Scorching sparks kept falling onto the back of his hand, burning his skin and leaving long, bright red gashes in his flesh from the car window glass as he protected her with his arms.
...
Half-conscious, Ning Xiner could only hear an infinitely gentle and clear call of “sister.”
A few minutes later, the rescue team hurried over, and people saw a young man walking out of the billowing smoke, carrying an unscathed woman step by step.
“Quick, save her!”
“I’m okay, save my sister first.”
Gu Chen handed Ning Xiner to the firefighters, his hands already stained with blood from his wounds, yet his face bore an incredibly fortunate and happy smile.
“What do you mean you’re okay, you must have been burned silly, get in the car!”
When Ning Xiner opened her eyes in the hospital again, what she saw was the main guy intently peeling an apple in front of her bed.
With a gut-wrenching sense of urgency and a mixture of emotions, she got up and hugged him tightly, crying with joy, “Thank goodness, Tanfeng, you’re okay. When I got the kidnapper’s call, I was nearly scared to death…”
Hearing that Ning Xiner had woken up, Gu Chen, without even having dressed his wounds, rushed to the hospital room. He hadn’t even pushed the door open when he saw the scene through the glass.
Ning Xiner was holding Xu Tanfeng tight, her beautiful face brimming with the joy, happiness, and adoration of having regained what was lost.
It was an expression she had never shown him.
Dark clouds pressed upon the city, the sky dimmed, and a hazy gray spilled from the bottom of his eyes, blanketing the ground underfoot. The rain washed away the dust on the long road, along with the receding figure of Gu Chen.
“I love you, so I can take ninety-nine steps towards you, but if you’re unwilling to take even the last step…”
Once her condition had improved, Ning Xiner remembered Gu Chen and picked up her phone to call him. She used to ignore him, but he would always find a way to appear in front of her and bother her. This time, however, no matter how many calls she made or how many WeChat messages she sent, Gu Chen didn’t respond anymore.
She was still just a child at heart, Ning Xiner recalled. Before the accident, Gu Chen had asked her to go on vacation to Hawaii, and she must have upset him by not responding. Once out of the hospital, it would be fine if she coaxed him a bit.
During the police investigation of the accident, Ning Xiner and some eyewitnesses were called in to give statements. After her statement was taken, an auntie grabbed Ning Xiner, gossiping, “Girl, why hasn’t the young man who saved you come?”
Ning Xiner was puzzled, “Young man?”
“Yes, a very handsome and affectionate young man. Seeing you had been hit, he rushed into the fire without a thought for himself. We all tried to stop him, telling him it could ignite at any moment, but he didn’t listen at all. He carried you out of the flames, covered in blood. Oh, is he your brother or your lover? The one who drove the Pagani Supercar…”
Before the auntie could finish, Ning Xiner’s eyes were already blurred with tears. The tremulous calls of “sister” she had forgotten in the recesses of her memory began to resurface, little by little.
The first person she saw when she woke up was Xu Tanfeng, so she naturally assumed he was the one who had saved her, never imagining it was him.
