Looking at the woman in front of her, Wen Nian slowly pushed her hand away. Then, she took a deep breath and said, “I’m not a doctor. The medical staff will be here soon.”
The woman’s eyes instantly lost their luster and she was about to collapse the next second.
Wen Nian quickly supported her and said, “But tell me about your daughter’s condition first. It’ll be easier to explain to the medical staff when they come later.”
Wen Nian walked over and looked at the little girl. Many people were watching, but none of them were doctors. No one dared to act rashly.
“The child’s breathing seemed to have stopped.” She frowned, trying to remember some of the first-aid measures she’d learned in her past life. Then she asked, “Did the child choke on water?”
There was a river below the bridge, but it was raining now. It was impossible to tell if the child had fallen into the water or was drenched by the rain.
“Yes, yes, she fell into the river just now!” the child’s mother quickly said.
Wen Nian thought for a moment and asked the man to lay the girl flat. Then, he asked Lin Li to help hold the umbrella before saying, “I’ll give the child mouth-to-mouth resuscitation first. All of you, move aside. We have to provide air circulation.”
Under Zhao Kai’s command, the people around him dispersed a little. Only then did Wen Nian quickly give the child mouth-to-mouth resuscitation and chest compression. She bent down and straightened up again and again. After a while, the child indeed coughed and spat out a few mouthfuls of water.
At this moment, the sound of an ambulance could be heard. The rescue team rushed to the scene. Seeing that Wen Nian was saving someone, a few medical staff rushed over.
Wen Nian stood up and panted. “The child’s breathing must have stopped because of drowning. I gave her mouth-to-mouth resuscitation just now. The child has woken up.”
“Alright, leave the rest to us.” The medical staff quickly began the resuscitation, and the child’s parents followed closely beside them.
As for Wen Nian, she slowly moved away. The child was saved, and the people at the scene began to evacuate. She felt like the huge rock in her chest had finally been lifted.
Suddenly, she felt as if she had missed her footing and fell into a somewhat cold embrace. Then, her vision darkened and she fainted.
“Wen Nian? Wen Nian, what’s wrong?” Zhao Kai carried her anxiously. Wen Nian’s entire body was burning. Even though he was drenched in the rain, Zhao Kai could feel that she was already running a fever and her breathing was a little irregular.
He hurriedly carried Wen Nian and ran to the ambulance. Suddenly, his heart seemed to have been hit by something and he could no longer maintain his composure.
Hearing someone arguing softly in her ear, Wen Nian felt her eyelids grow heavy and she couldn’t open her eyes at all.
Seeing her hand move, Shen Jun quickly held her hand. “Nian Nian, it’s me. How are you?”
She first opened her eyes a little, then saw Shen Jun’s anxious face. She wanted to say that she was fine, but she couldn’t make a sound.
“Does your throat hurt? You have a fever of 39°C and you were drenched in the rain. You deserve it if you can’t speak.” Behind Shen Jun, Zhao Kai’s expression finally relaxed.
He turned around and poured a glass of warm water. Shen Jun took it directly. “Thank you. There’s nothing else for you here.”
“Little Master Shen, you want to kick me out after I’ve outlived my usefulness?” Zhao Kai sat on the stool beside Wen Nian’s bed sloppily. “I just sent your girlfriend to the hospital. You don’t even thank me and only know how to chase me away.”
His voice was also a little hoarse. Although he had changed his clothes, he was in bright hospital gown. It seemed that he had not gone back.
Shen Jun helped Wen Nian drink some water. Only then did her throat feel a little better, but her voice was still very soft. “Zhao Kai, thank you so much for today. You were also drenched in the rain. Why don’t you go back to the ward and wait for the checkup? I have Shen Jun here. It’ll be fine.”
Shen Jun glanced at Zhao Kai without batting an eyelid. His face said, “Aren’t you leaving?”
Zhao Kai shrugged. “The Capital Bridge collapsed. Now, all the hospitals are taking in people to the emergency department. It won’t reach my turn to do a checkup. I’ll just go back and take a hot shower.”
He took a step forward and saw that Wen Nian’s complexion had indeed improved. Then, he looked at Shen Jun’s cold face and said, “Anyway, you’re lucky to live. I’ll go now.”
He waved his hand coolly, but he stared at Wen Nian’s small face through the glass of the ward door. Thinking of how she had been unconscious just now, he steeled his heart and left the ward.
Seeing him leave, Shen Jun let Wen Nian lean in his arms and asked gently, “Are you feeling unwell anywhere? Your fever has just subsided. What do you want to eat? Do you want to sleep for a while more?”
“I’m fine. I was just drenched in the rain. My cold will heal soon.” Wen Nian squeezed his hand.. “Why are you here?”
