Lin Xiao instinctively raised his hand to wipe the sweat from Wei Changfeng's forehead and comforted him, saying not to worry, the ambulance would be there soon, and there were very good hospitals nearby.

Wei Changfeng endured the pain and said softly, "I know, just like Sichuan has the best proctology hospital and Yunnan has the best detoxification hospital."

Those around him felt even more distressed seeing him trying to comfort and cheer everyone up despite being in excruciating pain.

Xiao Hao's voice was already trembling with tears, and Xiao Min kept wiping away her own tears.

Lin Xiao and Xiao Hao were filled with remorse. If they had stayed with Wei Changfeng instead of going to ski on the intermediate slope, he might not have been injured.

Just as I was feeling agitated, a commotion broke out outside the crowd.

Lin Xiao got up to check and saw paramedics carrying a stretcher rushing over, with a French man and woman leading the way.

Great! Seeing the doctor and the ambulance felt like grasping at a straw; my heart immediately calmed down.

With the help of ski resort staff and Lin Xiao, the paramedics quickly learned about Wei Changfeng's basic injuries and swiftly lifted him into the vehicle.

During this process, Lin Xiao overheard the conversation among the crowd and realized that the French couple who had guided the paramedics earlier were not helpful passersby, but the perpetrators of this accident!

Their disappearance just now wasn't due to desertion, but rather because they ran outside the ski resort, hoping to bring rescue personnel to the scene as soon as possible.

Lin Xiao's anger subsided considerably. No one wants accidents to happen, but fortunately, they didn't encounter anyone who was irresponsible and disappeared without a trace.

Everyone followed the ambulance to the hospital. Because Lin Xiao could help the medical staff communicate with the injured in French, he was arranged to get on the ambulance with Wei Changfeng. The French couple who caused the accident drove behind with Zhao Hui and the other two.

"I'm sorry," Lin Xiao said to Wei Changfeng, who was lying on the stretcher, but tears started falling as soon as he said those three words.

Wei Changfeng gritted his teeth and said softly, "It's none of your business."

Lin Xiao wiped away his tears, lowered his head and said to him, "If Xiao Hao and I hadn't abandoned the three of you to go play by ourselves, you might not have been hit. Even if someone flew towards you, we could have blocked them a bit."

Wei Changfeng twitched the corner of his mouth, trying to force a smile, but the expression he made was even uglier than crying.

This silly girl, even if she was right next to him at the time, did he expect her to shield him with her body? But given Lin Xiao's considerate nature, she might actually have stood in front of him.

The paramedics in the ambulance checked Wei Changfeng's heart rate and blood pressure, and thankfully, they were both normal. Despite the pain, Wei Changfeng looked into her eyes and said, "Can I rest easy now?"

Lin Xiao stopped crying, rubbed her eyes, and said softly, "I just feel really sorry. If I hadn't mentioned this town to you guys, if I hadn't suggested you come skiing this morning, this wouldn't have happened."

Wei Changfeng didn't know how to comfort her, so he tried to take her hand and talk to her, but the movement aggravated his injury, causing him to gasp in pain.

"Don't move, please don't move," Lin Xiao said anxiously. "How are we going to get back to China tomorrow like this? It's all my fault!"

The hospital was indeed very close; the ambulance arrived in about ten minutes.

Medical staff carried Wei Changfeng down and took him to the hospital. Zhao Hui and Xiao Hao arrived shortly afterward.

"How is it?" Zhao Hui asked anxiously the moment he saw Lin Xiao.

"I checked it in the car, and his heart rate and blood pressure were normal, so there's no danger. I don't know the condition of his bones right now."

Who would have thought that such a pleasant and wonderful trip to the small town would develop into this completely unexpected outcome?

The perpetrator had overheard Lin Xiao's conversation with the medical staff and knew she could speak French, so he came over to talk to her.

These two are tourists from the French provinces who came to the town to ski this year.

Many French people are quite good at skiing. Sometimes you will see toddlers who look only two or three years old, who seem to be walking unsteadily, skiing gracefully on skis. It is quite a sight.

But these two are exceptions; their skill level is similar to that of Wei Changfeng and Zhao Hui.

After gliding freely for a while, the man said he was trying to avoid a novice of similar skill level, and his route became completely out of control until he crashed into Wei Changfeng and came to a stop.

Due to the human instinct for self-preservation, he collided head-on with Wei Changfeng, who was facing away from him, so he was basically unharmed, while Wei Changfeng was knocked to the ground as if he had been tackled from behind, suffering injuries to his legs and waist.

“We have medical insurance. I just called to check, and the person we injured is covered by insurance, so you don’t need to worry.”

Lin Xiao wasn't very familiar with the French healthcare system; her school would handle the registration for all students after she enrolled.

So she wasn't sure what kind of medical reimbursement would cover the injured, but she guessed it was probably like third-party liability insurance in car insurance.

Although Wei Changfeng should be wealthy, as the victim, it is certainly right for the perpetrator to bear all medical expenses.

But that's not the most urgent thing right now; the most urgent thing is to find out the extent of his injury.

Lin Xiao already knew from their conversation that tomorrow would be their last day in France. The brand would take them on a tour of the castle, present them with gifts, and then send them to the airport. That would be a perfect ending to their trip to France.

However, because of the small town he had described to everyone during a meal, all his plans have now been completely disrupted.
