Jiang Tingzhou instinctively shielded Xu Wan with one hand, turning his body to the side and using his arm to block her face from hitting the center console in front.
In just a moment, the car came to a complete stop!
Are you alright?
The first thing Jiang Tingzhou did was to ask Xu Wan.
At the same time, the driver reported back: "Boss, someone is stopping the car."
"Let's go down and take a look."
Jiang Tingzhou ordered the driver to keep his eyes on Xu Wan, fearing she might get hurt.
Xu Wan shook her head, casually tidied her long hair, and looked up in the direction of the car.
The driver had already gotten out of the car by then.
Jiang Tingzhou held her tightly, saying, "Don't go down, be careful."
Blocking a car like that is definitely a suicidal act!
Soon, Jiang Tingzhou's phone rang; it was the driver calling.
The driver said, "Mr. Jiang, it's Miss An. She's seriously injured. What should we do?"
Jiang Tingzhou first lowered his voice and told Xu Wan, "It's An Yunya."
"Shall I go down and take a look?" Xu Wan knew that it was inconvenient for Jiang Tingzhou to show his face.
The man put his arm around her and said to the driver, "Call 120 and take her to the hospital. We're not responsible for anything else."
The car was dimly lit at night, and people inside couldn't be seen clearly from the outside.
Before the call ended, Xu Wan turned on speakerphone.
An Yunya's voice came from the other end immediately: "Are you going into this residential area? Could you please take me in? I'm looking for someone named Xu Wan. Please take me in."
"She's looking for me?"
Xu Wan's heart skipped a beat.
From the beginning, nothing good ever came of An Yunya contacting her.
But she still looked at Jiang Tingzhou, "Should I go down and ask what happened? I think she at least knows about your situation. If I help her at this time, she might tell me something."
“No need.” Jiang Tingzhou, fearing the woman might act impulsively, told the driver, “We can leave after calling 120.”
After saying that, he hung up the phone immediately.
He feared the woman might act impulsively, so he tightened his grip slightly, making it even harder for her to break free.
The car was very well soundproofed. Xu Wan could only hear An Yunya making a lot of noise outside, but she couldn't make out what she was saying.
After a while, an ambulance arrived, and the driver got in.
Once the car started moving, Jiang Tingzhou said, "I will investigate my own affairs. I won't let you take risks for me."
"But I feel that getting close to her is a shortcut, isn't it?"
“But she is Jiang De’an’s wife. I know Jiang De’an’s character well. If he finds out that you used An Yunya to get information about what happened back then, it will put you and Xiaoxiao in danger.” The man leaned down and kissed the woman’s forehead. “I don’t want you to be in danger again.”
With just a few words, Xu Wan was instantly convinced.
He's right.
If Jiang De'an were to target them, mother and daughter, it would be incredibly easy for him.
After the car drove into the underground parking garage, Jiang Tingzhou told the driver to go upstairs with them.
Xu Wan assumed the man had something he wanted the driver to do, so she didn't ask any further questions.
After getting on the elevator, Jiang Tingzhou did not press the 37th floor button, but directly pressed the 39th floor button.
As the elevator slowly ascended, he explained, "An Yunya said she would come to see you, but I was afraid she wouldn't let it go so easily. Today, he will act as a bodyguard at your door. If An Yunya comes, he will be responsible for driving her away. After that, I will send bodyguards every day, whether at your door or outside the community, to ensure that there are people on guard 24 hours a day so that nothing will happen to you."
Xu Wan glanced at the driver, "But isn't staying up all night too tiring..."
Jiang Tingzhou raised a hand, “Five times the pay for working one night.”
The driver immediately replied respectfully, "Protecting the lady is what we should do."
Xu Wan felt bad about delaying the driver's earnings, so she could only agree.
All night long, Xu Wan was on tenterhooks. She wasn't afraid that An Yunya would come looking for her, but rather that An Yunya would really make a scene and scare Xiao Xiao and her mother.
Thankfully, nothing happened overnight.
-
Jiang Tingzhou's flight was on Saturday morning.
In the morning, Xu Wan and her mother took Xiao Xiao to her English class before taking a car to the airport with Jiang Tingzhou.
The man once again traveled abroad by private jet, departing from a business building.
There should have been many things to say when they parted, but on the way there, Xu Wan couldn't utter a single word.
It wasn't until she saw the road sign indicating that the airport was only 3 kilometers away that she turned to the man and asked, "Jiang Tingzhou, if your surgery fails and you can't walk anymore, what will you do? Are you planning to hide forever like you did yesterday when you picked me up?"
