Observing celestial phenomena, she was struck by lightning.
Perhaps there is no one more unlucky than Jiang Ran, a grandmaster of the mysterious gates.
Just after traveling through time...
Chapter 366 Rescue
He could clearly feel that he had braked in time and avoided hitting him, but the man fell directly in front of the car, which made it hard for him not to be suspicious.
Hearing the driver's guess, Ji Xia frowned and said coldly, "Go down and take a look."
Since her miscarriage, her emotions have been unpredictable. She goes to the Taoist temple to pray for blessings every day, but she never expected to encounter such a thing today. A hint of impatience flashed across her face.
He then turned around and got out of the car, wanting to see who dared to provoke him at this moment!
The driver shook Jiang Yuechen vigorously, but he remained unconscious. Suddenly realizing something was wrong, he turned around to report the situation when Ji Xia strode closer.
As the driver slightly turned to the side, Ji Xia's face paled instantly upon seeing the man's face, and she exclaimed in surprise, "It's him?!"
Then a look of panic flashed across his face, and he quickly stepped forward to help, instructing the driver, "Quick! To the hospital!"
Upon hearing this, the driver readily agreed.
After the two men lifted Jiang Yuechen into the car, they rushed to the nearest hospital.
At the same time, two pairs of eyes were watching their car leave from the shadows; they were the two men who had just been chasing Jiang Yuechen.
As the car drove out of sight, one of them looked puzzled and then complained, "What's going on? Why didn't we go up and stop them?"
"How can we stop them?" the slightly older man said coldly. "Didn't you see there are people on the other side? The car is next to them, and the dashcam is on. Once we show our faces and get checked, none of us will escape!"
This road was usually deserted, and no one expected that Jiang Yuechen would be so lucky as to catch a passing car.
Hearing his explanation, the man immediately deflated, then asked in a deep voice, "So how are we going to explain this to them now?"
“Tell the truth.” The other man’s face darkened, and he replied coldly.
On the other side, after taking Jiang Yuechen to the hospital, Ji Xia immediately called Jiang Ran.
Upon receiving the news, Jiang Ran disregarded the fact that she still had to maintain the facade of being unconscious for the person behind the scenes and rushed to the hospital.
It wasn't until she saw Jiang Yuechen that her heart, which had been hanging in suspense, finally settled down.
Then, he quickly approached and saw that Jiang Yuechen's eyes were closed and his face was pale. He had been gone for so long, and he wondered how he had been doing recently.
Seeing this, Ji Xia stepped forward and softly recounted what had happened. Jiang Ran listened, her eyes flashing slightly, and replied in a deep voice, "This time it really was lucky. If we hadn't run into you, I'm afraid he..."
Before she could finish speaking, she looked up and saw a hint of fatigue in Ji Xia's brows. She pursed her lips slightly, said nothing more, and a look of gratitude flashed across her face as she whispered her thanks.
Upon hearing this, Ji Xia's lips curled up slightly, revealing a faint, somewhat stiff smile. She then replied softly, "It was nothing. You're being too formal."
"Okay." Jiang Ran nodded slightly and replied in a low voice.
Then, her gaze narrowed slightly, a hint of hesitation flashing across her face. After a moment of contemplation, she slowly spoke to comfort her, "Xiaxia, I've heard about what happened to you..."
"Don't worry about this. Trust me, you'll have another child!"
"I know," Ji Xia nodded slightly and replied in a deep voice.
There was no expected screaming or sobbing. Jiang Ran was surprised to see her so calm.
My heart grew increasingly worried, and I was about to ask when I heard her continue, "The baby already told me beforehand..."
When she woke up that day, the scene in her dream was still vivid in her mind. She firmly believed that it must be that her deceased child couldn't bear to leave her behind, so he sent her a premonition in her dream.
The pain of losing her son was undeniable, but she could only console herself with her parting words.
Jiang Ran was quite confused by what she said, and seeing that she seemed unwilling to say more, she didn't ask any further questions.
At this point, any amount of comfort would seem too weak. It would be better to let her think things through carefully and process them before helping her from the sidelines.
A brief silence fell over the room, followed by a faint groan coming from the bed.
Upon hearing the sound, Jiang Ran was startled and quickly turned to look at Jiang Yuechen.
Ji Xia quickly approached, a hint of worry flashing in her eyes.
Jiang Yuechen slowly opened his eyes, and what came into view was a vast expanse of white. He was familiar with this scene; it was clearly a hospital.
Then she turned to look at Ji Xia, a hint of doubt appearing in her eyes at first, before she recognized who it was. Turning back, she saw Jiang Ran looking at her with concern in her eyes, and asked repeatedly, "Brother, how are you? Is anything bothering you?"
Hearing Jiang Ran's incessant questions from the side, Jiang Yuechen reacted for a moment, and seeing that she was alright, he was instantly relieved.
Then, a slight smile appeared on her lips as she slowly replied, "I'm fine. As for you, I'm relieved to see that you've woken up and are alright."
His words were full of concern for Jiang Ran.
Ji Xia watched the two's relationship from the side, and a touch of emotion flashed through her heart.
Even Cheng Shuyuan never showed any sign of valuing himself more than his own life.
Thinking of this, a chill ran through Ji Xia's heart.
"What exactly happened? How did you get kidnapped?"
Jiang Ran sounded very anxious as she looked up at Jiang Yuechen, her expression earnest as she awaited his reply.
After all, Si Zuochen's whereabouts are still unknown, and both of them were kidnapped because of him, so he might know some of the inside story.
Hearing her question, Jiang Yuechen lowered his eyes slightly, thought for a moment, and then explained in a deep voice, "I remember that I heard that you were recuperating in the mountains, so I was going to visit you. I didn't expect to see someone kidnap you."
"In the heat of the moment, I didn't have time to call for help, so I could only rush forward to stop them, but I never expected..."
As he spoke, he pursed his lips slightly, a hint of unease flashing across his face.
Unexpectedly, not only did he fail to save the person, he also got himself caught in the crossfire; it's ironic no matter how you look at it.
As Jiang Ran listened, a warm feeling suddenly flashed through her heart. For someone to step forward to save her without regard for danger, regardless of the outcome, such a kind of initial intention is something that not everyone can do.
Then, seizing on the key point in the conversation, he quickly asked, "Did you see clearly who kidnapped you?"
Jiang Yuechen lowered his eyes and pondered for a long time, but still shook his head and said in a low voice, "I can't remember."
I only remember arguing with people, but I don't remember what those people looked like at all.
Ji Xia stepped forward and explained in a low voice, "The doctor's examination showed that he had a blood clot in his head, which was obviously caused by a heavy blow from outside. It may be related to this."
Hearing Ji Xia's explanation, Jiang Ran nodded slightly, while Jiang Yuechen looked at her with a puzzled expression.
Jiang Ran spoke up at the right moment, saying, "Brother, this time it was all thanks to Ji Xia who happened to be passing by and saved you."
Upon hearing this, Jiang Yuechen immediately understood. No wonder Ji Xia was here. He then nodded slightly in acknowledgment.
He spoke up softly, expressing his gratitude: "Thank you so much."
"It's nothing," Ji Xia said, unconcerned. "It's nothing."
Just then, Jiang Ran's phone suddenly rang. Looking down, she saw that the caller ID showed Gu Nan as the first name on the screen.
A look of surprise flashed across Jiang Ran's face, and then she swiped to answer the call.
"There seems to be a clue about Ah Chen in the west of the city..."
Upon hearing this, Jiang Ran was startled and quickly replied, "Okay, I'll be right there."
Without waiting for a reply, he hung up the phone.
Jiang Yuechen could tell from her tone that she had something important to do. Before she could speak, he said, "If it's something urgent, you should go quickly. I can manage on my own."
Jiang Ran pursed her lips slightly, then responded softly and turned to walk outside.
The room was instantly filled with silence as only Ji Xia and Jiang Yuechen remained.
After a long while, Jiang Yuechen coughed twice, then exchanged a few pleasantries, each sentence filled with gratitude.
Ji Xia pursed her lips slightly and replied softly, "Aran has helped me a lot, this little thing is nothing."
"And speaking of which, at first I thought you were trying to scam me, that you fainted before you even hit the car."
As he spoke, a faint smile flickered across his face.
Upon hearing this, Jiang Yuechen chuckled and replied helplessly, "I never expected that you would witness my most pathetic side."
The two exchanged pleasantries, and with Jiang Ran acting as their intermediary, their relationship unconsciously grew closer.
Ji Xia admired Jiang Yuechen's sense of responsibility, and Jiang Yuechen appreciated Ji Xia's personality. The two hit it off immediately and chatted very congenially, eventually becoming friends.
