Jiang Wanning was in a sorry state, with scratches on her face of varying degrees, and her hair was a mess, soaked with sweat, and stuck to her face in strands.

Fu Chenyuan's gaze fell on Jiang Wanning's feet, and his eyes immediately turned red.

Jiang Wanning wasn't wearing shoes!

Leng Chi arrived just then and saw the two reunited from afar. He didn't approach but instead took out his phone to make a call to let them know he was safe: "We've found him. President Fu has found him. We need to prepare doctors, especially specialists who can treat external wounds."

Fu Chenyuan squatted down in front of Jiang Wanning and extended his hand to her.

Jiang Wanning wore a relaxed smile, her lips slightly upturned: "I knew you would come, Ayuan, I've been waiting for you."

She is not the kind of princess who just waits for a prince to rescue her; she is a queen who can save herself.

Fu Chenyuan's eyes were bloodshot, and he held Jiang Wanning's hand, not daring to hug her.

"Are you injured? Has Meng Huaijin mistreated you?"

Jiang Wanning shook her head: "No. Ayuan, I'm so tired."

After she finished speaking, she collapsed into Fu Chenyuan's arms, unable to hold on any longer.

She had reached her physical and mental limit, and only when she saw Fu Chenyuan did she finally relax.

Fu Chenyuan caught Jiang Wanning, holding her ankle in his hand. Looking at the deep and shallow wounds on the soles of her feet that were still bleeding, his heart clenched.

Fu Chenyuan carried Jiang Wanning on his back.

Leng Chi appeared in front of Fu Chenyuan.

"Mr. Fu, let me carry it."

Fu Chenyuan silently shook his head and carried Jiang Wanning on his back.

Jiang Wanning was indeed exhausted; her mental energy had reached its limit.

Fu Chenyuan carried Jiang Wanning on his back and walked very quickly.

Upon arriving at the roadside, a professional doctor was already waiting to examine Jiang Wanning.

It was eventually determined that Jiang Wanning's injuries were superficial, but the wounds on her feet were quite gruesome, caused by sharp stones, thorns, and rolling pebbles along the way...

In the ambulance, as the doctor treated Jiang Wanning's wounds, Jiang Wanning couldn't help but wince in pain even in her sleep, her body trembling involuntarily.

Fu Chenyuan held Jiang Wanning's hand tightly.

The iron chain on Jiang Wanning's ankle had been removed with tools. Her ankle was bruised and peeled from the chain, and the wounds were heartbreaking to see, making one's heart tremble.

Such a big thing couldn't be kept secret from both sets of parents in the end.

Jiang Wanning slept for a whole day and night.

She slept as soon as she arrived at the hospital, and the doctor gave her an IV drip of nutrients.

Fu Chenyuan stayed by Jiang Wanning's side, and even brought his work to the hospital.

Seeing this, Fu Haozhong took over the matter.

"Alright, I'll take care of these things for you until Wan Ning wakes up. You should also get some rest, so you don't collapse before Wan Ning wakes up."

Xia Rushan's eyes were swollen.

They never expected that after their daughter returned to their side, this would happen.

It's unclear when Jiang Wanning's injuries will heal, especially some deep wounds on the soles of her feet, which look like they've been cut open.

Jiang Xinkai's eyes were also red.

Fu Chenyuan remained silent for a moment, then finally spoke, his voice hoarse: "Dad, Mom, I'm sorry. I didn't protect Wanwan well. You can hit me or scold me, it's all fair game."

"Never mind, it's not your fault. Nobody wanted this to happen."

Jiang Xinkai sighed.

He patted Fu Chenyuan on the shoulder: "Get some rest, don't blame yourself, Ningning won't blame you."

When Jiang Wanning woke up, it was already the morning of the next day.

When she woke up, she felt pain all over her body, her wounds were stinging, especially the soles of her feet, which hurt even when she moved them.

Her face was dry and she felt refreshed.

Jiang Wanning suddenly opened her eyes and suddenly remembered that the last thing she saw was Fu Chenyuan. Then she finally relaxed and fell into Fu Chenyuan's arms.

Jiang Wanning was about to raise her hand when she found that Fu Chenyuan was holding it tightly.

Jiang Wanning moved her hand, and Fu Chenyuan immediately woke up.

Fu Chenyuan stared blankly at Jiang Wanning for a few seconds before suddenly realizing what was happening.

He immediately leaned over and hugged Jiang Wanning tightly.

Fu Chenyuan didn't speak, but Jiang Wanning felt tears wetting her shoulder.

She was wearing loose, comfortable clothes, which must have been cleaned.

There was a strong smell of disinfectant in the air, and the ward was decorated in a cozy manner, just like being at home.

Fu Chenyuan held her tightly, and Jiang Wanning remained silent, letting him hold her and letting his tears soak through her clothes.

After an unknown amount of time, Fu Chenyuan's muffled voice came through: "I'm sorry, wife, I didn't protect you well."

"Ah Yuan, it's not your fault. Even if it wasn't this time, it would have been next time. Meng Huaijin had been planning this for a long time, and it was impossible to guard against."

“Don’t laugh at me,” he said.

"Yes, I won't smile," she replied earnestly and solemnly.

Fu Chenyuan raised his head again, his eyes were very red.

Jiang Wanning cupped Fu Chenyuan's face in her hands, but looked at him with a smile.

“Ah Yuan, I’m not a princess who just waits for a prince to rescue me. I will save myself before you come, and then run towards you, because I know you will definitely arrive in time. When I saw the lights coming on and the beam of light shining towards the horizon, I knew it must be you.”

There was a time when the two of them were watching a movie together in a home theater. They got into a playful mood and started flashing a flashlight.

Jiang Wanning said, "If we ever get separated in the dark, just leave the light on for me like this, and I'll know it's you."

Unexpectedly, he remembered, and so did she.
