Chapter 121
Nan Bo: "What's wrong?"
Nan Tao shook her head, "Nothing."
As he said that, he opened the car door and prepared to get in.
Suddenly, Nan Tao seemed to hear something and subconsciously turned her head to look towards the alley entrance.
A light gray figure flashed by quickly.
It’s Sister Lu Yao!
In a flash, Nan Tao remembered.
It was this alley, the alley where Lu Yao had the accident in the nightmare.
Nan Tao's heart was beating rapidly.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
"Brother, hurry, hurry!" Nan Tao grabbed Nan Bo's arm and ran straight to the alley next to her.
Nan Bo was confused and started running after him. "Why are you running?"
Nan Tao had no time to explain, and shouted breathlessly: "Lu, Sister Lu Yao..."
At the same time, in the alley,
Lin Yirou cried, "What are you doing?! I, I don't have anything valuable on me." As she said that, she hid her hands behind her back.
A ruffian with red hair sneered, "Do you think I'm blind?"
Lin Yirou stepped back and screamed, "Don't come over here!"
The gangster said: "Hand over your gold bracelet, cell phone, and other valuables on you."
Lin Yiru wanted to escape, but was blocked in a corner by the gangsters and couldn't get out.
I should have known not to take a shortcut to the hospital's inpatient department from here.
What should I do... wuwuwu...
Lin Yiru grew up in a poor family. She lived frugally, had low self-esteem and was conceited. She also developed the bad habits of being stingy and greedy. She was always the one who took advantage of others, and no one else took advantage of her.
Moreover, the most valuable gold bracelet and new mobile phone on her body were just bought by Gu Bai, and they had only been warm for a few days.
Lin Yirou looked stern but was actually weak inside. "Aren't you afraid that I'll call the police? Stealing is illegal!"
The thug had been lurking near the hospital for several days, and now he finally got his chance. How could he give up so easily? He sneered, "You think I was scared? The worst that can happen is a few years in jail, with food and drink provided. Do you think I've never been there?"
"Hurry up and stop talking nonsense!"
"If you don't know what's best for you, don't blame me for being rude."
The gangster waited patiently for 1 second, and finally ran out of patience, so he reached out to grab the things on Lin Yiru.
Lin Yirou screamed.
"No! Let go! This is mine!"
The gangster raised his hand and slapped Lin Yirou with great force.
Lin Yirou fell to the ground, her cheeks swollen and the corners of her lips broken and bleeding.
She covered her stomach in panic, her eyes full of fear.
Wow, I hope I won’t have a miscarriage.
The gangster took away all the valuables from Lin Yiru, turned around and left, but was thrown over the shoulder.
Lu Yao was scanning the bike code outside the alley when she suddenly heard screams from inside and hurried in to see what was happening.
Seeing a woman sitting on the ground with red and swollen cheeks, and a gangster leaving with a gold bracelet, a mobile phone and other things in his hand, Lu Yao quickly realized that the woman was robbed, so she stepped forward and bumped into the gangster, throwing him over her shoulder to the ground.
There was a howl of pain, so miserable.
The things in the gangster's hands also fell to the ground with a clatter.
Seeing that the thug was in so much pain that he couldn't get up for the time being, Lu Yao comforted the woman who had been robbed, "Are you okay?"
When he looked down, he saw that it was the woman who had bumped into him before and was so arrogant. Her original elegance disappeared and she looked very embarrassed.
Lu Yao stretched out her hand, "Get up."
Lin Yirou mercilessly opened Lu Yao's hand and said, "You are very happy and proud to see me making fun of you, right?"
Lu Yao: “……???”
Lin Yirou supported herself against the wall and stood up. Feeling no pain in her abdomen, she breathed a sigh of relief and looked up at Lu Yao with hostility in her eyes. "Don't think I'll thank you."
Lu Yao was speechless. She ignored Lin Yirou's mumbling and called the police. Seeing the gangster struggling to get up, she stepped on him and suppressed him.
The gangster screamed again, begging for mercy and cursing.
Lin Yirou frowned, "How could you treat him like this?"
Lu Yao: “…”
Lin Yirou: "Even if he made a mistake, you can't abuse him like this, you are too cruel!"
Lu Yao: “???”
When the gangster heard the meaning behind Lin Yirou's words, he quickly begged for mercy: "Beauty, I know I was wrong. I shouldn't have robbed you. Please ask her to let me go. I will return all your things to you. If the robbery is not successful, it is not considered robbery. I have elderly parents and young children to take care of. Please forgive me this time."
"Beautiful lady, you are so beautiful, you must be very kind-hearted. If you ask her to let me go, I will be your slave in my next life."
Lin Yirou was overjoyed by the praise, and the corners of her lips curled up, but she still hated the slap just now, "You hit me."
The gangster said: "I was wrong. How about you fight back and we'll be even? Can you ask her to let me go?"
Lin Yirou naturally wanted to fight back, but in order to maintain a magnanimous image in front of Lu Yao, she deliberately said, "I'm not like some people who are cruel and treat others cruelly even though they haven't provoked you. I am a kind person, so I naturally don't care about these things. I just consider it a good deed."
The gangster was overjoyed, "You bitch, let me go!"
Lu Yao remained unmoved, "You've broken the law."
Lin Yirou frowned. "This is a matter between him and me. It's none of your business. I don't mind. You're still dragging it down, trying to annoy me."
Lu Yao smiled, "If I hadn't arrived just in time, would you be able to stand up and talk to me now?"
Lin Yirou was displeased. "What do you mean? I know you saved me just now. There's no need to emphasize this repeatedly. I don't owe you anything. It was you who wanted to save me. What does it have to do with me?"
"Besides, now is the time. I agree to forgive this man. Please let him go immediately."
Lu Yao: "No."
Lin Yirou originally hated Lu Yao, and when she saw that she ignored her, she became furious and stepped forward to push her.
Lu Yao was caught off guard and didn't react for a moment, stumbling back.
In an instant, the gangster lying on the ground, ready to strike, with a fierce look in his eyes, took out a fruit knife from his trouser pocket and stabbed Lu Yao with force.
Just at this moment, Nan Tao and Nan Bo arrived.
Nan Bo's heart stopped beating when he saw this. He rushed forward impulsively, stretched out his hands to protect Lu Yao, and held her in his arms.
Lu Yao watched helplessly as the fruit knife came at her, unable to dodge. Just as she was about to accept her fate, a huge force hit her, and she slammed into a man's arms.
Lu Yao smelled the refreshing mint scent on the man and subconsciously looked up, only to see the man's delicate jaw. Climbing up along the jaw, she saw his high nose bridge, above which were a pair of deep and charming peach blossom eyes. His long eyelashes flickered, giving those charming and bewitching peach blossom eyes a touch of simplicity and innocence.
Instantly, the two looked at each other.
Lu Yao could clearly hear the heartbeat.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
Again and again, hitting hard.
Lu Yao couldn't tell whether it was her own heartbeat or Nan Bo's heartbeat.
It was clearly a brief moment, but it seemed like a long time had passed.
Nan Bo raised his foot and kicked the gangster, pushing him one meter away.
"Are you okay?" Nan Bo whispered.
Lu Yao's deer-like eyes were filled with confusion. After coming to her senses, she stammered, "No, nothing. Why did you suddenly appear? That knife...are you hurt?"
Nan Bo coaxed gently, "It's okay, don't worry."
The next second, Nan Tao's exclamation was heard.
"Brother, your arm is injured and bleeding. Hurry, hurry to the hospital."
Lu Yao looked at Nan Bo's arm, a bloody, palm-sized gash that was shocking. Without saying a word, she tore off a piece of cloth from her body and bandaged Nan Bo's wound. "Just keep it simple for now, and let's go to the hospital."
Nan Tao: "Sister Lu Yao, take my brother over first. I'll stay here and take care of it."
Lu Yao nodded and helped Nan Bo walk out.
After the two left, the narrow alley suddenly became empty.
Seeing this, Lin Yirou also left.
Nan Tao stopped Lin Yirou, her eyes were cold, and the corners of her lips raised in a smile, "Where do you want to go?"
Lin Yirou cried aggrievedly, "Miss, President Nan is injured, I have to go with him."
Nan Tao sneered, "Shut up! If it weren't for you, would what just happened have happened?"
Lin Yirou's tears fell. "What does it have to do with me? It's all that woman's fault. She caused it. How could you wrongly accuse me?"
Nan Tao: "Do you think I didn't see your little move?"
Lin Yirou paused in tears and said innocently, "I don't understand what you said."
Nan Tao sneered, "It doesn't matter if you don't understand."
After saying that, he was too lazy to talk nonsense with Lin Yirou. When he saw the police coming, he directly told them what had just happened.
After questioning, the police tied up the gangster who was lying on the ground wailing, gave Lin Yiru a verbal education, and then went to the hospital to take a statement from Nan Bo before leaving.
Nan Tao looked at Nan Bo's bandaged arm, her eyes reddened, "Brother..."
Nan Bo patted Nan Tao's head and said, "It's just a minor injury, don't worry."
Lu Yao said guiltily: "I'm sorry, if it weren't for me..."
Nan Bo smiled gently and said, "It has nothing to do with you, don't blame yourself."
Nan Tao looked at Lu Yao who was intact, and then at Nan Bo who had injured his arm, and suddenly she didn't feel so distressed anymore.
Trading my brother's arm for Sister Lu Yao's life is a good deal no matter how you look at it.
As long as Sister Lu Yao is alive, Lin Yirou will not be able to make any waves in the future, and her brother will definitely have a happy future.
Thinking of this, Nan Tao became happy again. She took Lu Yao's arm and said with a smile, "Sister Lu Yao, it has nothing to do with you. My brother wanted to be a hero and save the beauty. He asked for it. You don't have to blame yourself. Besides, he is a grown man. A small injury on his arm is nothing. It's the hallmark of a tough guy."
Nan Bo: “…”
Lu Yao was amused, but when she realized something was wrong, she quickly stopped smiling and pretended nothing had happened.
His eyes wandered and met Nan Bo's gentle gaze. He inexplicably thought of what Nan Tao had just said about a hero saving a beauty. Somehow, his heart beat faster and he quickly looked away.
Nan Tao didn't notice this and was still trying to comfort Lu Yao not to blame herself. She looked up and asked in surprise, "Hey, Sister Lu Yao, why is your face suddenly so red? Is it too hot?"
Lu Yao's face turned even redder, and she explained guiltily, "Yes, it's a little hot."
He kept avoiding Nan Bo's gaze, not daring to meet his gaze.
Nan Bo has been smiling gently, and his peach blossom eyes with slightly raised corners are charming. Usually, this gentle smile is not noticeable, but at this moment, he is so gentle, and there seems to be bright stars in his eyes and a faint smile, which makes people unable to help but indulge in it and find it difficult to extricate themselves.
Nan Tao didn't notice the strange atmosphere between the two and kept nagging, "Sister Lu Yao, the woman you saved today is an ungrateful person. Next time you see her, take a detour and stay away from her to avoid getting entangled with her."
Lu Yao: "Okay."
Nan Tao: "I have something I'd like to ask Sister Lu Yao for help, is that okay?"
Lu Yao nodded.
Nan Tao: "My brother is a workaholic. Even if he's injured, I guess he can't be stopped from working. Sister Lu Yao, please help me keep an eye on him when you have time. No one in our family can look after him."
Lu Yao: “This…”
Nan Tao played the victim: "My brother used to forget to eat when he was busy. This time, the family urged him many times to come for the physical examination, but I forced him to come. Now he is injured. If no one is watching, I guess he won't take the inflammation seriously."
Lu Yao softened, "Okay."
Nan Tao winked at Nan Bo and said, "Brother, I still have things to do. Sister Lu Yao, please accompany my brother. I'll be leaving first."
