Huo Jinyan drove very fast, and soon they arrived at the hospital.

Once she opened the car door, Lu Ning rushed into the hospital with Lu Jingzhi in her arms.

It was only then that Huo Jinyan loosened his grip on the steering wheel. Chu Ting peered to his side; he had been holding the steering wheel so tightly, his hand was imprinted with the pattern on the steering wheel.

Chu Ting looked at Huo Jinyan and said in a hushed tone, “President Huo, aren’t you going with them? Miss Lu will be scared if she’s alone, right?”

Huo Jinyan glanced sideways at him, spun around, flung the car door open, and got out. With hastened strides he walked into the hospital.

In the emergency room, Lu Ning watched as the doctor performed all kinds of checkups on Lu Jingzhi; she was pushed out by the nurse, and the curtain on the bed was drawn, isolating her.

She stood where she was, rainwater still dripping from her body.

When Huo Jinyan walked in, he saw her simply standing there, aimless and distraught.

He walked over and gently draped a coat over her shoulders.

Lu Ning returned to her senses, and peered up at him.

“Thank you.” Her voice was hoa.r.s.e.

Huo Jinyan looked at her; her eyes were red from crying, and her gaze wavered.

Overcome by a fit of emotion, he pulled her in and patted her head. “It’ll be alright, you’ve done what you could.”

Lu Ning stiffened in his arms, but upon hearing this she suddenly jolted. She placed her arms on his chest, and tears rolled down her face.

Lu Ning’s phone suddenly rang. She took it out from her pocket and was about to answer it, when she heard a few people rus.h.i.+ng in from outside.

“Ning’ning, Ning’ning!”

Lu Zhi was holding his phone in his hand; Shen Yunci had followed the ringtone to find her.

Shen Yunci was alarmed when she saw Lu Ning all drenched; she ran over and hugged her. “What’s wrong? Are you hurt? Let Mommy have a look.” Lu Ning’s eyes were red, and there were tear streaks on her face.

“Mommy, it’s not me. It’s Jingzhi.”

Shen Yunci looked at her. “I’m glad you’re fine. Where’s your little brother?” Lu Ning pointed at the bed covered by the curtain.

Shen Yunci clutched her hand. “It’s okay, it’ll be alright. You did great, your brother will be fine. Don’t worry.”

Lu Ning looked at her and nodded, biting her lip.

The emergency room was in a clamor. Lu Ning turned around and glanced at Huo Jinyan; he was standing behind her, his gaze cheerless and steely. Lu Ning exhaled a deep breath, and she seemed to have calmed down a lot.

The doctor pulled open the curtain and walked out.

“Family members, follow me for a bit.”

Lu Zhi hurriedly followed him out, while Shen Yun left to see Lu Jingzhi. Lu Ning was rooted to the spot, so Huo Jinyan stepped forward to ask a nurse some questions; then, he returned to Lu Ning.

“Everything’s fine now.”

Lu Ning’s legs buckled, and Huo Jinyan used an arm to hold her steady.

Huo Jinyan helped her to a bench outside the emergency room.

Lu Ning leaned her head against the wall—her hair was drenched, her entire body was soaked, and rainwater dripped from her hair.

Huo Jinyan sat beside her.

Staring blankly at the light on the ceiling, Lu Ning muttered, “It seems like you’re always by my side whenever I’m in a particularly sorry state.”

She laughed.

Ever since she turned from Lù Ning to Lu Ning, from that most miserable point of her life, Huo Jinyan had always been by her side.

Huo Jinyan turned towards her. He did not say anything, but his gaze fell on her pink fluffy slippers that were wet and dirtied by the rain. Its pink had turned a muddy hue, and its fluffiness was all gone.

He whipped out his phone to make a call.

“Ning’ning, are you alright? Were you injured when you came?” Lu Zhi walked over and asked Lu Ning, fraught with worry..
