Chapter 19: Treat others in their own way

Ye Jinmo endured the pain, looked at the man in confusion, opened her mouth, but no words came out.

She didn't know how to address him, and it would be rude to speak rashly.

Just as she was searching for her memory of the person in front of her, a young woman ran over with tears on her face and picked up the little girl in panic.

"Niuniu!"

"Mother!"

The woman looked the child up and down, and after confirming that the child was not injured, she hugged him tightly again.

"Mom, it was this beautiful sister who saved me. She was injured!" Niu Niu's childish voice caused the woman to look at Ye Jinmo apologetically.

"Thank you so much! I'll take you to the hospital..."

Before she could finish her words, Ji Sichen stepped forward and looked down at Ye Jinmo: "I have a medicine box in my car, let's disinfect it first."

Seeing that the girl was about to be taken away by the man, the woman hurriedly stuffed a business card into her hand.

"Miss, please take care of your wound first. Here is my phone number. You can call me anytime. I will reward you handsomely!"

After the young woman finished speaking, she hurried away with the little girl.

Ji Sichen looked at Ye Jinmo's pale face and felt distressed. When he realized his own strange emotions, he suppressed them instantly.

Secretary Li had already been waiting nearby with a medicine box. He saw the right moment and quickly took out iodine and gauze.

Ji Sichen was about to take the thing, but Ye Jinmo interrupted him.

"Let me do it!" She glanced at the man's expression and immediately replied, "I'm afraid of pain, I want to control the strength myself."

Taking the cotton swab, she carefully applied iodine on her arm. Fortunately, it was only a flesh wound and no bones were broken.

Her technique was professional and quick, and she cleaned the dirt from the wound and disinfected it.

Ji Sichen calmly picked up the gauze and wrapped it around her arm, his tone becoming gentler:

"I'll be careful not to hurt you."

It was midsummer noon and the sun was shining brightly in the sky.

Ye Shuran and the bystanders who were just watching were left aside.

Because the little girl was almost hit just now, many passers-by have left, and the remaining people no longer point fingers, but instead quietly praise Ye Jinmo for his bravery.

Some people even enthusiastically bought mineral water for her to rinse her wounds.

Seeing the change in public opinion, Ye Shuran became anxious and hurried forward to ask with concern: "Sister, are you okay?"

Ye Jinmo didn't want to pay any attention to her and didn't respond.

Ye Shuran turned her gaze to the man again, admiration flashing in her eyes, and her tone was also sour: "Sister, isn't this the man you had before? I thought you broke up, but I didn't expect that he still cares about you."

The words were neither light nor heavy, but when they reached the ears of people around, their meaning instantly changed.

Considering what just happened, everyone's expressions looked strange.

On the one hand, people affirmed Ye Jinmo's bravery, but on the other hand, they despised her for being so ignorant at the age of sixteen.

The weather was already hot, and coupled with her endless nagging, Ye Jinmo became even more irritated.

But before she could object, the man wrapped the last circle of gauze, tied an exquisite bow, and then stood in front of her to protect her.

"Just now, that child was pushed out by you and almost hit the car. Can't you see it?"

In the weather that was nearly 30 degrees, everyone couldn't help but shiver when they heard his chilly tone.

"Is she your sister or not? Why do you slander her every time I meet you?"

The cold questioning made Ye Shuran freeze, but she looked at everyone, made up her mind, clenched her fists, and put on a pitiful expression on her face.

"Of course she is my sister. I don't want her to be deceived by a man. Am I wrong? Besides, the child ran out suddenly. I didn't push her. Why should I be blamed for the car accident?"

"Heh", Ye Jinmo suddenly sneered and slowly walked out from behind Ji Sichen.

"This street is full of surveillance cameras. If the child's parents were to investigate, do you think he would be able to get away?"

She looked around and saw everyone's faces changed drastically. Many of them left quietly.

"I have no evidence every time you make up a rumor, but more than one person saw you kissing someone of the opposite sex."

This one sentence made Ye Shuran panic.

She was not sure whether Ye Jinmo took photos or not, and she couldn't ask, otherwise it would confirm the fact!

She wanted to refute, but when she looked up, she saw Ye Jinmo shaking her phone at her and smiling meaningfully.

People around probably understood what happened.

"It turns out that the elder sister was hanging out with a man and was afraid of being discovered, so she took the initiative to throw the dirty water on her younger sister!"

"What a scheming person! I knew it! How could such a kind-hearted girl be that kind of person? And she almost hit this man's car just now, so it's only natural for him to help bandage her wounds!"

Ye Jinmo raised her eyebrows and gave the other person a taste of his own medicine!

Seeing the voices of people talking around getting louder and louder, she even imagined the emotional entanglement between Ye Shuran and the man kissing and flirting.

Ye Shuran's face flushed and beads of sweat appeared on her forehead.

Finally, he couldn't hold it in any longer and left a sentence in a rage: "I'll tell my mother!"

Left in embarrassment.

Looking at her back as she fled in panic, Ye Jinmo breathed a sigh of relief.

After all, she was only sixteen years old. After letting out her anger today, her depressed heart felt much happier.

The man beside her couldn't help laughing at her changing cute expressions, and his tone was so doting that even he didn't notice: "Are you happy now?"

Hearing his voice, she came back to her senses and looked at the car parked on the side of the road not far away. She suddenly remembered that she was the one who almost got under the wheels of this car just now, and in order to avoid her, the front of the car hit the guardrail.

She took out her wallet from her bag, looked at the few Mao Zedong notes inside, and then looked at the dented front of the Rolls-Royce. She was in a dilemma.

After hesitating for a long time, she mustered up her courage, looked up at the man's eyes, and said in a negotiating tone: "Sir, I'm really sorry. I just tried to save that child and caused your car to be damaged. This is all the money I have now. Please call me later and I will collect the repair fee as soon as possible."

As she spoke, she took out a pen and paper and quickly wrote down her phone number.

Looking at her sunburned face, Ji Sichen frowned and looked at her coldly, as if he wanted to stare a hole through her.

Does she look like she doesn't recognize him?

He looked at the girl's serious expression, which didn't seem like a joke at all.

Suddenly, he felt even more upset. Has this girl forgotten him?

It was really strange, she was just a sixteen-year-old girl, she meant nothing to him, why was he so angry?

That’s right, he must be unhappy because she promised to help treat grandma and then forgot about him!

Seeing that he didn't say anything, Ye Jinmo pursed her lips, thinking that he was unwilling.

She sighed, took out her cell phone, and prepared to call her eldest brother to borrow money to repair the car temporarily.

The next second, the man said in a cold voice: "No, just come with me and help my grandma check her body, and the matter will be settled."
