Chapter 171 Chance Encounter
Jiang Xiaomei vaguely felt that someone picked her up and took her to someplace, then a needle was inserted into her wrist, and a cold liquid flowed through her blood vessels throughout her body.
She knew she had hit the car, but she wasn't hurt. The car was moving very slowly and braked suddenly, so she couldn't stop and fell down just as she touched the hood.
She just didn't have the strength to stand, she wasn't knocked down.
But she was really tired, so she decided to take a nap first.
After an unknown amount of time, Jiang Xiaomei opened her clear eyes, and a young and handsome face came into her sight. When his anxious expression met her eyes, he immediately shouted in surprise: "You finally woke up!"
Jiang Xiaomei looked at him apologetically, remembering that this was the voice she heard before she fell asleep. It should be the unlucky car owner.
She struggled to sit up and moved her arms and legs, which were still usable. There was an IV drip hanging on her wrist, and she tried to pull it off, but the man held her back and said, "Don't move. You haven't finished losing yet."
"I'm fine. Sorry, I scared you." Jiang Xiaomei raised her lips in an apologetic arc and got out of bed. "Don't worry, I'm not a scammer."
The man was stunned for a moment, then his expression became more sincere: "That was because I accidentally touched you. I just checked and you are not injured. But your body is very weak. You have to finish the nutrient solution before leaving, otherwise it will be wasted."
Jiang Xiaomei looked up at the IV bottle which had only one drop left, then slid open her phone to take a look. It was almost time to pick up Chenchen. The nanny had taken a day off today, and she couldn't delay any longer.
He pulled out the needle decisively and walked out quickly.
She moved in a hurry and felt a little dizzy. Jiang Xiaomei knew it was because she hadn't eaten for a day.
After picking up Chenchen, I took him to KFC. Chenchen asked for it several times.
The man followed Jiang Xiaomei out and kept asking, "Are you really okay? Where are you going? I'll take you there. Here, this is my phone number. If you feel uncomfortable in the future, feel free to call me."
Jiang Xiaomei took the note from him and put it in her trouser pocket.
"Hey! You're wearing so little, you'll catch a cold if you go out!" The man followed up and nagged, "Wait a minute, I'll buy you some clothes as a token of my apology. Hey! Wait a minute, don't walk so fast!"
Jiang Xiaomei did not stop at all, and even started to jog. As she was walking through the hospital lobby, she bumped into Yan Liang who was running towards her.
"Ouch!" the man exclaimed, "Why did you bump into it again!"
Yan Liang was hit so hard that he felt dizzy and almost fell down. When he looked up, he saw that it was Jiang Xiaomei.
Both of them were stunned and asked almost at the same time: "Why are you here?"
"Do you know him?" The man came forward, intending to check Jiang Xiaomei's new injuries. When he saw Yan Liang's face clearly, he opened his mouth in astonishment and pointed at Yan Liang, "You, you! It turned out to be you!"
Yan Liang looked closely at the man in front of him and felt that he looked familiar, but he couldn't remember who he was for a moment.
"Yan Liang, right? You don't remember me?" The man came back to his senses, looked Yan Liang up and down, and said in amazement, "Oh, I was almost shocked when I first knew you could talk. Did you hear everything I said to Shen Jianxi before?"
Yan Liang suddenly remembered someone in his mind: "Are you Zhang Chao?"
"Yes, yes, yes!" Zhang Chao nodded happily like a chicken pecking at rice, "You still remember me!"
Yan Liang remembered that Zhang Chao was Shen Jianxi's college classmate. It was his conversation with Shen Jianxi at Mr. Shen's birthday party that made Yan Liang know Shen Jianxi's most secret thoughts.
"Do you know each other?" Zhang Chao pointed at Yan Liang and Jiang Xiaomei.
"Yes, she is my best friend." Yan Liang was interrupted, and the dark despair he had just felt suddenly dissipated, like a drowning person suddenly floating to the surface, and the dull pain in his lower abdomen seemed to ease. "Why are you in the hospital?"
Yanliang looked at them suspiciously.
Jiang Xiaomei examined Yan Liang for a moment and found that her face was frighteningly pale. She frowned slightly and said, "It's okay, it's just a misunderstanding. What's wrong with you?"
Yan Liang smiled sadly: "Come to see someone."
Seeing that Yan Liang didn't want to say more, Jiang Xiaomei stopped asking and walked away.
Zhang Chao gave a strange smile: "Well, I accidentally bumped into this lady, so I took her to the hospital for a checkup."
Yan Liang was startled, grabbed Jiang Xiaomei's hand, and looked her up and down: "Are you okay? Where did you hit?"
Jiang Xiaomei saw Yan Liang's nervous look and her heart softened: "Actually, he didn't hit me, he just brushed against me."
Yan Liang found a bruise on her wrist, and he pulled it up to see large bruises and bloodstains. Yan Liang's pupils shrank in fear: "You still call this okay?"
Jiang Xiaomei hurriedly put down her sleeves, broke free from Yan Liang's hand, and shouted angrily: "I said it's okay, so why are you meddling in my business!"
Her voice was so loud that many people around looked over at them.
Zhang Chao was so scared that he waved his hands: "That, that wasn't done by me! She already had it, I didn't knock it out!"
Yan Liang didn't believe it and looked at Zhang Chao fiercely: "If you didn't hit her, why does she have so many scars on her body?"
Zhang Chao was so anxious that he almost cried. How could he know?
Out of humanitarian responsibility, he took Jiang Xiaomei to the hospital for examination. The car accident did not cause any substantial injuries, but he was suddenly discovered with deep and shallow scars on her body, which frightened him so much that he almost fainted.
He thought that this woman was a scammer who deliberately hit a luxury car to extort money from him.
He really regretted it. He had just finished renovating the new house in Qingjiang Garden and had only moved in for two days when something like this happened?
But he couldn't just abandon her. He saw that she woke up just now and had no intention of blackmailing him. He felt relieved, but at the same time, he felt guilty and thought that he shouldn't make random guesses and slander others.
This woman was obviously bullied by someone, how pitiful. She didn't use this incident to blackmail him or blame him, which shows that this woman has a simple heart and a good mind.
He left her his phone number because he was worried that some invisible injuries might not be detected for the time being. If she felt uncomfortable in the future, he would never shirk responsibility as long as it was caused by the car accident.
He also believed that this woman would not accuse him for no reason. If she was that kind of person, she should be blaming him now.
I didn't expect that she was Yanliang's best friend. I feel more relieved now.
He trusted Yan Liang's character. He had speculated about her with Shen Jianxi before, but she broke up with Shen Jianxi cleanly and without asking for a penny, which made him look petty.
When I heard that Yanliang won first prize in the fashion contest and suddenly learned to speak, I was filled with emotion.
Whenever Shen Jianxi sighed and regretted in front of him, he felt more and more sorry for Yan Liang. Thinking of what he and Shen Jianxi said at the birthday banquet that day, Yan Liang might have heard it, and was so scared that he dared not see her.
"Yanliang, her injury really has nothing to do with me. She is like this all the time!" Zhang Chao tried his best to defend himself while looking at Jiang Xiaomei.
"It's not him!" Jiang Xiaomei took Yan Liang's hand, "Let's go quickly, don't embarrass yourself here."
Yan Liang was involuntarily pulled out of the hospital gate by her. After calming down, he guessed that these injuries might have been caused by Wang Qinghai, and he suddenly became furious.
"You saw that jerk again, didn't you?"
