Chapter 232

It was almost time to play, so the two of them took a cab home.

Sitting in the backseat of the cab, Ling Yuan circled her in his arms, letting her rely on him.

Night surrounded the city, dim street lights stood on the side of the road flickered, winter in An City did not snow, but it was cold to the bone, inside the cab, the driver sat in the cab and focused on driving, the back seat of the pair of people snuggled together, warming each other, did not feel that this winter is cold at all.

Ling Yuan and Ji Yu were discussing about the New Year.

“On the second day of the new year grandpa has a very important old friend visiting, I’ll come back on the fourth day of the new year to visit grandpa, okay?”

Ling Yuan and Ji Yu were already engaged, and it was important to walk around for the New Year, even if that status was put aside, he wanted to spend more time with Ji Yu.

“Yeah.”

Ling Yuan still wanted to say something, but at this moment, the cab that was traveling smoothly on the road lurched viciously without warning.

The accident happened in a split second, and Chi Yu still had palpitations when he later recalled that night.

The place, ten minutes away from the home of the pool fisherman, is an intersection, a just adult high school students and girlfriend quarrel, ran to the stalls filled a few bottles of beer.

Afterwards, he drove his car to find his girlfriend to make peace, but because of the effect of alcohol, his brain was abnormally excited, and he could not see the traffic lights, nor could he see the oncoming vehicles, so he just stepped on the gas to the end.

The moment Ji Yu saw the blinding headlights shooting over, her mind couldn’t think of anything but remembering Ling Yuan saying that he had been in a car accident when he was a child and suffered from post-traumatic stress disorder.

Her movements were faster than her brain’s reaction, and she lunged at him as if by reflex, “Ah Jiu, be careful!”

Ling Yuan caught a glimpse of a car rushing towards them in his afterglow, and his pupils suddenly dilated.

The pores of his entire body opened up, the memories buried deep in his mind came rushing in, the overwhelming blood flooded his eyes, he could feel the fate that he couldn’t escape and waited quietly for it to come.

However, it was during this wait, perhaps a long time, perhaps a short time again, that he heard someone shout in his ear, “Jiu, be careful.”

The familiar voice irritated him who was caught in fear, and while the blood color in the bottom of his eyes was still raging and rolling, a voice in his heart reminded him that –

His little girl, was still here.

He must not let anything happen to her.

In a flash of lightning, at the moment Ji Yue hugged him, he wrapped his arms around her waist faster than she did, and turned around to protect her tightly under his body.

Immediately after, “bang” a loud bang, the cab was heavily hit, in that moment, he only felt that heaven and earth are gray, the driver’s screams, the sharp sound of brakes, outside the car of pedestrians shouting so clearly into his ears.

All the action became slow motion like shooting a movie, the rearview mirror of the car that crashed over broke, and smashed heavily on the cab window, the sound of the glass exploding cut through his eardrums, Ling Yuan looked at the splashing glass fragments, and felt that his soul was detached from his body, and he couldn’t perceive a trace of pain or fear.

Blood, shocking blood.

Dripping, falling on his tender face, he wanted to cry, wanted to shout, but could not make a sound.

He wanted to protect his mom, but he watched her eyes close before his eyes ……

That feeling of powerlessness bound him tightly like a silk thread.

Ji Yu felt the sky spinning as the boy’s broad body tightened around her.

After a violent impact, Ji Yu’s brain was shaken and buzzed.

She shook her dizzy head, and even when her consciousness was still fuzzy, she scrambled to look at the person shielding her body, her voice shaking beyond recognition, tears falling down in an instant, “Ah Jiu, are you alright?”

Everything happened so fast just now, she didn’t even think that in such an emergency, his first reaction would be to protect her first.

Not getting a response from Ling Yuan, Ji Yu’s emotions were overwhelmed by a sense of fear.

She cried out, “Ah Jiu, don’t scare me.”

“Say something.”

She raised her hand to touch his face, to probe his nostrils, to feel the aorta in his neck, and felt the warm nostrils and the flow of blood before she didn’t panic so much.

She also did not know if there is no one outside to call the police, felt out her cell phone, with the fastest speech and the most clear and concise words, called 110 and 120 calls.

After making the call, when she adjusted to the light inside the car, Ji Yu opened her eyes wide and looked at the boy holding her.

At this look, shocking waves were set off in her heart.

Only to see the person who protects her at the moment look painfully closed eyes, forehead is full of fine cold sweat, breathing heavily, as if caught in some kind of terrible nightmare can not wake up.

But even if he was caught in such a quagmire, he still held her tightly, very hard, as if he was protecting some rare treasure.

Ji Yu looked at him like this, the tip of her heart trembled, her heart felt like it was being clutched tightly by something, it was all clutched in one piece, an inexplicable cold sweat surged up the back of her spine, and her voice trembled with nervousness, “Ah Jiu.”

Combined with what Ling Yuan had said to her before, she had realized what had happened to him.

She gently caressed his face, forcing back the sourness in her nose, her voice soft, “Ah Jiu don’t be afraid, things have passed, I’m fine, we’re both safe.”

She gently patted his back, softly soothing.

The girl’s voice trickled, not rushing, like a sweet and clear spring, it was very comfortable to listen to.

Although Ling Yuan’s consciousness fell into a darkness, he could actually hear Ji Yu speaking, he just couldn’t make a single sound like when he was a child.

But the little girl didn’t know and thought that something was wrong with him.

Tears dripped onto the back of his hand, so hot that it made his heart ache, and he wanted to comfort her, wanted to hold her properly, wanted to kiss her passionately and tell her that he was fine.

It was like something was pulling at the limits of his brain, one was desperately pulling him down into the abyss, one was trying to break through the restraints, and the headache was so intense that his brain was about to explode.

He bit down hard on the tip of his tongue, and a fishy sweetness immediately filled his mouth, the pain causing the chaotic consciousness to suddenly dissipate like a fog, the raging blood receding like a tidal wave, and the fingers wrapped tightly around her waist involuntarily tightening.

He rolled the knot in his throat with difficulty.

Ji Yu, who was always watching him, noticed his movement, and with a lurch in her voice, she shouted in surprise, “Ah Jiu?”

“Uh, I’m in.”

Ling Yuan gulped and swallowed the fishy sweetness in his mouth, his voice hoarse.

After a moment’s reprieve, he added, “I’m fine.”

Then, coaxing her in a low voice, “Don’t cry, my heart aches.”

“I’m not crying.”

Saying that she didn’t cry, but Ji Yu couldn’t help but have a sour nose, and her tears shabu-shabu fell again, dropping and falling, heavily hitting his chest, and sliding down the waterproof down jacket.

Ling Yuan’s left elbow hit the door handle of the car when the car crashed up, perhaps it was fractured, and it would be in pain and cold sweat.

It’s just that the little girl seems to be frightened by his look just now, her face is even paler than his, he forcefully endures the pain and lowly coaxes, “Don’t worry, I’m really fine.”

Ji Yu sniffled, his voice with a thick nasal sound, “How can it be fine? Is there anywhere on your body that’s uncomfortable?”

She doesn’t dare to touch randomly, because she doesn’t know where he hurt from this collision just now.
