Chapter 76 Crisis



Chapter 76 Crisis

"Then...how is he now?" Nan Xuqiu asked.

Chi Jinjin glanced at Gao Yi on the hospital bed and replied, "He's not awake yet."

She didn't want to care about Gao Yi, but if she didn't, he would die there. If a life was ignored, it would be unacceptable both humanely and legally.

There are surveillance cameras in the corridor. If you watch someone die without helping, you will go to jail.

She rubbed her Jingmingxue with a headache.

"Which hospital are you in now? I'll come and help you." Nan Xuqiu sighed and said.

"No need, I can handle it myself." Chi Jinjin said. She had already broken the appointment, and it would be too selfish to ask him for help.

Nan Xuqiu said, "I'd better come and help you. It's snowing outside. I'm worried about you being alone in the hospital, and I'm also worried about you going home alone."

It's snowing?

Chi Jinjin looked out the window and realized that it was snowing outside.

"But……"

"That's it. If you don't tell me, I'll really be angry."

"No, no." Chi Jinjin told him the address of the hospital.

"Yeah, I'll be right there."

Nan Xuqiu hung up the phone, lowered his head in silence for a moment, smiled bitterly, then stood up and left the ginkgo tree.

Soon, Nan Xuqiu came to Chi Jinjin.

Chi Jinjin went to meet him.

"Are you cold?" Nan Xuqiu asked, placing a cup of hot milk tea in her hand.

"Thank you." Chi Jinjin said. Seeing him covered in snow, she was puzzled. "Why are you covered in so much snow? Can't we drive into the hospital and go straight to the gate?"

"My car is a little far from the dormitory. It's okay, just a little snow." Nan Xuqiu said.

As he was speaking, Gao Yi slowly woke up.

Seeing this, Chi Jinjin walked over and asked, "Are you okay?"

"Where is this?" Gao Yi asked in confusion.

"Hospital." Chi Jinjin returned.

Gao Yi felt a headache and subconsciously reached out to touch his forehead, but there was a big wound on his forehead. Seeing this, Chi Jinjin hurriedly said, "You can't touch your head, there is a wound!"

"Jinjin." Gao Yi held Chi Jinjin's hand.

Nan Xuqiu's eyes fell on their hands. He took a step forward, but then took a step back. He lowered his eyes and stood quietly in the corner without saying a word. Finally, he walked out of the ward silently, leaned against the wall beside the door, and lowered his head.

Gao Yi said, "Please forgive me, okay?"

Chi Jinjin pulled her hand out of his, moved away from him, and said, "Since you're awake, I'll go home. You should have a good rest."

"Jinjin! Jinjin, don't go!" Gao Yi called her.

But Chi Jinjin still walked out of the ward.

When she went out, she didn't see Nan Xuqiu. She turned around and found him next to her.

Chi Jinjin said, "Let's go, let's go home."

"Are you comfortable leaving him here alone?" Nan Xuqiu asked.

Chi Jinjin said, "Don't worry, the nurses and doctors are here, and he's awake again. Let's go."

"Yeah." Nan Xuqiu nodded, said nothing, and left the hospital with her.

In the car, Chi Jinjin apologized shamefully, "I'm sorry, Nan Xuqiu, I broke my promise today, and it's so late that I only just remembered to call you..."

"It doesn't matter. Human life is more important." Nan Xuqiu looked at her, smiled slightly, and said, "You said he lost a lot of blood. Didn't that scare you?"

Chi Jinjin admitted, "To be honest, I was scared. I've been afraid of blood since I was a child, especially so much blood..."

"Don't be afraid." Nan Xuqiu shook her hand.

Chi Jinjin felt that his hands were so cold, like ice cubes, even colder than her own.

His hands are usually warm, why are they so cold today?

After sending Chi Jinjin home, Nan Xuqiu fell ill, but he did not tell Chi Jinjin. In order to prevent her from hearing his hoarse voice, he sent messages to Chi Jinjin.

"Hey, have you heard? There's a perverted murderer here who only preys on women. His methods are extremely cruel. Several girls have been killed."

"I heard about it, and they haven't been caught yet. It's made me panic these past few days."

The people around were talking, and one of them suddenly said to Chi Jinjin, "Jinjin, you have to be careful these days. The latest incident happened quite close to where you live."

"Well, thank you. I will be careful." Chi Jinjin thanked him, feeling a little scared.

After returning home, Chi Jinjin locked her doors and windows again and again.

After a few days, there was no news. Chi Jinjin finally breathed a sigh of relief when she heard that the person had been caught.

A week later, Song Nuannuan was admitted to C League, and Tang Shi and his friends booked a private room to celebrate and welcome her.

Chi Jinjin and Nan Xuqiu would naturally go as well.

In the afternoon, Nan Xuqiu came to pick her up.

After arriving at the private room, Chi Jinjin met Song Nuannuan. She was still as cute as before, but she had grown a lot taller and had grown from a child to look like a young girl.

A few people were chatting, but Chi Jinjin found that Song Nuannuan was always uneasy and looked at the door from time to time.

After a long time, Ji Yang finally arrived. Song Nuannuan immediately stood up from the sofa, but the moment she saw Ji Yang, the smile on her face suddenly froze.

Because it wasn't just Ji Yang who came, there was also a woman. The woman was holding Ji Yang's arm, and anyone with a discerning eye would know what the relationship between the two was.

"Nuannuan, long time no see. I heard that you got admitted to C-United University. You'll be my junior from now on." Ji Yang said with a smile. He also gave Song Nuannuan a gift and said, "This gift was chosen by your elder sister. A little kid like you should like it very much."

"The gift is beautiful, but I'm... not a child anymore..." Song Nuannuan said.

Ji Yang said with a smile, "In my heart, no matter how old you are, you are always a child, a little sister."

As he said that, he reached out and rubbed Song Nuannuan's head.

Song Nuannuan forced a smile on her face.

She sat on the sofa, watching quietly as Ji Yang talked and laughed with the girl, his hand on her shoulder.

Song Nuannuan took a drink from the table, drank it all in one gulp, and a tear fell quietly.

She wiped it off quickly.

Later, she left the private room temporarily under the pretext of going to the restroom, which was considered a temporary escape from the private room.

Chi Jinjin knew Song Nuannuan's secret, so she paid more attention to her than others. Feeling that she was in a bad mood, Chi Jinjin also left the private room.

Sure enough, she didn't see Song Nuannuan in the bathroom.

She looked around outside and finally found Song Nuannuan in a corner.

She was already in tears.

Seeing Chi Jinjin, Song Nuannuan hurriedly wiped away her tears.

Chi Jinjin came in front of her.

Song Nuannuan explained guiltily, "Sister Chi, why did you come out? I, I just fell down and it hurts."

Chi Jinjin took out a pack of tissues from her bag and handed it to Song Nuannuan, saying, "If it hurts, blow on it. It will stop hurting after you blow on it."

Song Nuannuan was stunned. She knew that her explanation was lame and fake, but she didn't ask. Instead, she went with the flow.

"Sister Chi, do you...know something?" Song Nuannuan asked after taking her tissue.

Chi Jinjin nodded.

"Don't tell Brother Ji Yang!" Song Nuannuan said hurriedly.

Chi Jinjin said, "I won't tell him. I know how you feel. I once secretly liked someone like this. I understand the anxiety and timidity."

Song Nuannuan nodded and felt relieved.

"Sister, was the person you once secretly in love with Brother Xuqiu?" Song Nuannuan asked.

Chi Jinjin nodded.

Song Nuannuan sighed and said, "Sister, I envy you so much. The person you like also likes you. What a lucky thing it is. And Brother Xuqiu's relationship is also very pure. Although he and Lin Shuya have been together since junior high school, when I see them together, they are no different from ordinary friends. They are not together often. He spends more time with my brother than with her."

"Unlike Brother Ji Yang, he often brings his new girlfriend to see my brother. Over the years, he has changed girlfriends one after another, and my heart... has also been hurt again and again. I thought I would get used to it, but every time a new girl appears next to him, my heart will still be as broken as the first time." Song Nuannuan said sadly.

Chi Jinjin asked, "Why do you like Ji Yang?"

Song Nuannuan sighed and replied, "I was born abroad. When I first came to China, my Chinese wasn't very good. One time, I sneaked out to play by myself, but was surrounded by a few seniors who tried to blackmail me. Brother Ji Yang happened to see me."

At that time, Ji Yang was in junior high school.

She will always remember the moment when she was grabbed by the collar and was so scared that tears welled up in her eyes.

A basketball flew over and hit the man hard on the head.

She turned around and saw a tall boy walking towards her against the light.

She always thought that boys were suitable for black and white, but that day he was wearing a red T-shirt. For the first time, she felt that boys looked so good in red, and she couldn't take her eyes off him from then on.

While abroad, she tried every means to return home, but when she finally returned, Ji Yang already had a girlfriend.

She had known him for ten years. During these ten years, the people around him changed one after another. She could only watch silently from the side, watching him talk sweet nothings to others, hug others intimately, and even kiss them...

Chi Jinjin didn't know how to comfort her. The pain couldn't be soothed with just a few words. She could only digest it slowly and heal it herself.

She patted her shoulder.

"Sister..." Song Nuannuan walked forward and leaned on her shoulder, crying with heartache.

On the way back, Nan Xuqiu asked while driving, "Song Nuannuan cried, right?"

"You, how do you know?" Chi Jinjin asked in confusion.

Nan Xuqiu said, "When you came back, there were tear marks on your shoulders, and the time you came back was not much different. Song Nuannuan's eyes were so red. Although something got stuck in her eyes, it wouldn't cause such a thing."

He observes so carefully, as expected of a criminal investigation student.

Chi Jinjin thought to herself.

"Then... what else do you know?" Chi Jinjin probed.

Nan Xuqiu said, "I also know that she likes Ji Yang."

"When did you figure it out?" Chi Jinjin asked.

Nan Xuqiu replied, "Just now, I saw your eyes were fixed on Song Nuannuan, so I followed your gaze."

He said with a smile, "Ji Yang has been in the love world for many years, and now he has become the person in charge."

"Don't tell Ji Yang." Chi Jinjin said.

Nan Xuqiu smiled and said, "Don't worry, I know."

Chi Jinjin felt relieved.

Nan Xuqiu was silent for a moment, then looked at her again and asked, "You've been sad like this before, right?"

He raised his hand and placed it on her head, stroking it gently. "I'm sorry, it's my fault."

Chi Jinjin shook her head and said, "I never told you before that I like you, so how can I blame you? We are not God, we don't have a God's perspective, how can we be comprehensive?"

She was sad, but she never blamed Nan Xuqiu. All the things that happened in the past were because she liked him too much, so she couldn't help but be attracted to him, which eventually led to the misunderstanding that he also liked her.

Later, the fog dissipated and the moon appeared. Looking back, he realized that he had always treated himself the same way he treated Tang Shi and Nuan Nuan.

So, she doesn't complain, never complains.

The car slowly arrived downstairs of Chi Jinjin's house. Chi Jinjin and Nan Xuqiu said goodbye and got out of the car.

"Ji Jin."

Chi Jinjin had just stepped onto the first step when Nan Xuqiu suddenly grabbed her hand from behind.

Chi Jinjin turned to face him and asked, "What's wrong?"

"I just forgot to tell you that I also want to thank you. Thank you for teaching me a lot of things."

Nan Xuqiu said.

Chi Jinjin was puzzled, "I didn't teach you anything?"

"You taught me what it means to love someone properly. I didn't understand it before, or only had a vague understanding, but now I understand a lot..."

Nan Xuqiu said this, tilted his head slightly, and kissed her lips from below.

Chi Jinjin was stunned and slowly closed her eyes again.

Outside, the snow fell quietly to the ground, and the surroundings suddenly became very quiet, with everything silent...

After kissing for a long time, Nan Xuqiu slowly left her lips.

The two opened their eyes and looked at each other.

Suddenly, Nan Xuqiu couldn't help but sneeze.

"You're not going to catch a cold, are you?" Chi Jinjin asked with concern.

Nan Xuqiu said, "I don't think so."

"You'd better come upstairs with me and have a cup of ginger tea. I have ginger tea made by my mother at home. Don't catch a cold." Chi Jinjin said worriedly.

Nan Xuqiu nodded.

Chi Jinjin took him into her home and went to boil water to make tea for Nan Xuqiu.

Nan Xuqiu sat down on the sofa.

There was some dust on the coffee table in front of the sofa. Nan Xuqiu took a piece of paper from the paper box next to it and wiped it.

Soon, Chi Jinjin brought a cup of ginger tea and placed it in Nan Xuqiu's hand.

Nan Xuqiu said as he drank, "Auntie's ginger tea is still so delicious."

"If you like, take some back to school. I have plenty here." Chi Jinjin said with a smile.

Nan Xuqiu said, "Then I won't be polite."

After drinking the tea, it was almost ten o'clock. Nan Xuqiu took the ginger tea and left Chi Jinjin's house.

Nan Xuqiu was driving on the road. When the red light came on ahead, he slowly stopped the car.

At this time, a car next to them opened its window and reached out to flick the ashes out.

When Nan Xuqiu saw the falling cigarette ashes, he suddenly seemed to remember something and picked up his phone to call Chi Jinjin.

"Hello?" Chi Jinjin answered the phone.

Nan Xuqiu asked, "Jinjin, have you had any guests at home recently? Especially men who smoke?"

"No, I haven't had any guests come to my house this month, let alone men." Chi Jinjin replied.

Nan Xuqiu immediately said urgently, "Jinjin, listen to me, leave the room right now!"

"Why?" Chi Jinjin wondered.

Nan Xuqiu turned the car around and said as he drove, "There's someone else in your room!"

other people?

When Chi Jinjin was puzzled, she suddenly heard the sound of a door being slowly opened behind her.

Chi Jinjin turned around and saw that her bedroom door, which had been tightly closed, was now ajar.

Chi Jinjin suddenly saw an eye and half a smiling face in the gap!

Chi Jinjin was horrified and tried to run away.

But as soon as her hand touched the door handle, someone grabbed her hair.

The person behind her pulled her back.

Chi Jinjin fell heavily to the ground, and her cell phone flew out.

Nan Xuqiu only heard a sharp, piercing sound, and then there was no sound.

"Hello? Jinjin?"

Nan Xuqiu called her, but there was no response.

Nan Xuqiu stepped on the accelerator to the bottom and overtook dozens of cars in a row.

The long-lost feeling of fear came over him again. Nan Xuqiu tried hard to control himself and stop his hands from shaking, but his heart was in a panic.

"You, who are you?" Chi Jinjin questioned the other party.

The man laughed and said, "Isn't my recent affairs known to everyone? Haven't you heard of me?"

Chi Jinjin remembered the perverted murderer they had talked about in the office before.

It is said that he only targeted women, and his methods were extremely cruel. Some had their hands cut off, and some had their feet cut off.

But wasn't he arrested?

The man looked at Chi Jinjin carefully and murmured, "Let me see what's good about you."

Chi Jinjin didn't dare to move, her eyes fell on the fruit knife on the coffee table next to her.

While he was distracted, Chi Jinjin immediately turned over and grabbed the fruit knife on the coffee table with one hand.

She pointed a knife at the other person and said, "Don't come over here, otherwise I will kill you!"

"Kill me?" The man laughed heartily and said fearlessly, "Come on?"

Chi Jinjin looked towards the door and ran towards it again.

But she was still held back by the man. Chi Jinjin was about to stab him, but the man grabbed her wrist.

His strength was so strong that it almost crushed her bones.

Chi Jinjin heard from others that this pervert used to be a member of the special forces, but was expelled due to repeated violations and misconduct. It was a female instructor who kicked him out.

So he came out to take revenge on society.

The man grabbed Chi Jinjin's neck and pushed her to the ground.

The strong feeling of suffocation made Chi Jinjin feel extremely uncomfortable and her face turned red.

She pulled at her hands that were pinching her neck, but it was like hitting a rock with an egg.

"Your eyesight is good. I just happen to be in need of glasses." The man put the knife to Chi Jinjin's face and said with a smile, "Don't move. You can't get too much blood in your eyes."

Chi Jinjin wanted to speak, but couldn't.

It felt like his neck was about to be strangled by the other party.

The man swung the knife and was about to swing it towards Chi Jinjin's eyes.

The door was suddenly kicked open. The man turned around, but before he could see Nan Xuqiu clearly, he was knocked to the ground by Nan Xuqiu.

The two men started fighting immediately.

Chi Jinjin barely lay sideways on the ground, coughing violently. She looked up and saw Nan Xuqiu fighting with the man.

But this person is not an ordinary person. He is equally matched with Nan Xuqiu. Whether in terms of height or strength, his strength is even a little above Nan Xuqiu.

Nan Xuqiu strangled the man with his arm and said to Chi Jinjin, "Jinjin, run away! Call the police!"

Chi Jinjin quickly got up and ran out the door.

Although she was very worried about Nan Xuqiu, she also understood that at this moment, she could not hesitate and had to leave immediately, otherwise she would be a burden to Nan Xuqiu.

She ran to the door of Xiao Xu's house, but Xiao Xu and his family had not returned yet, so Chi Jinjin had to run downstairs anxiously.

Fortunately, as soon as she went downstairs, she met people who were coming back from get off work. Chi Jinjin quickly borrowed their phone and called the police.

The police arrived quickly and, together with Nan Xuqiu, subdued the man.

"Nan Xuqiu!"

Seeing the man being arrested, Chi Jinjin immediately ran to him and asked nervously and worriedly, "How are you? Are you okay?"

Nan Xuqiu replied, "I'm fine, don't worry."

After looking him up and down, Chi Jinjin breathed a sigh of relief when she saw that there were indeed no injuries on his hands and legs.

Later, Chi Jinjin and Nan Xuqiu went back to the police station with the police.

After learning the whole story, the police contacted the traffic police. The traffic police exempted Nan Xuqiu from the speeding penalty because he was trying to save others.

After recording their statements, the two were able to leave the police station.

"Jinjin, I'll ask Uncle Zhuang to pick you up. Don't stay anywhere else now. It's not safe." Nan Xuqiu said to Chi Jinjin.

Chi Jinjin was also very scared. She really didn't dare to go back even if she was asked to do so, so she nodded.

After a while, Uncle Zhuang's car drove over.

Nan Xuqiu opened the car door for her, Chi Jinjin got in, and Nan Xuqiu closed the car door but did not get in himself.

Chi Jinjin was puzzled. She rolled down the car window, leaned over it, and asked, "Aren't you going back?"

Nan Xuqiu shook his head and said, "I have something to do at school, so I can't go back for the time being. You should go back first."

"Well... okay, drive safely." Chi Jinjin said worriedly.

"Yeah." Nan Xuqiu reached out and touched her head, smiled slightly, and said, "I will pay attention to safety. You should rest early. If you are scared to sleep alone, ask Aunt Zhuang to sleep with you."

"Okay..." Chi Jinjin nodded.

"Let's go." Nan Xuqiu gently pushed her head inside.

The car carrying Chi Jinjin slowly drove away. Chi Jinjin leaned back against the window and looked back at Nan Xuqiu. He smiled slightly, and he became farther and farther away, more and more blurred, and finally disappeared.

When Nan Xuqiu saw the parking space completely disappear around the corner, the smile on his face suddenly disappeared, and his face was filled with pain.

He lowered his head and opened his coat. The clothes underneath were already stained with blood, and the wound on his abdomen was still bleeding.

He smiled and felt lucky that he was wearing a thick black coat today. Otherwise, if Chi Jinjin saw so much blood, she would be scared.

He covered his wound and stumbled towards his car step by step.

Walking to the car door, he stretched out his hand to open it, but as soon as his fingertips touched it, his vision went dark and he fell heavily to the ground.

Chi Jinjin was sitting in the car, feeling uneasy. She raised her hand to rub her eyebrows, but unexpectedly found blood on her cuffs. Why?

She herself was not injured. There were only two people close to her. One was the perverted killer. He was injured, but that was after she ran away. The other one was...

A terrible thought came to Chi Jinjin's mind, and she hurriedly said to Uncle Zhuang, "Uncle Zhuang, turn around!"

Uncle Zhuang didn't understand why, but he turned the car around anyway.

When we drove back, Nan Xuqiu's car was still there.

As soon as the car stopped, Chi Jinjin got out immediately, and then saw Nan Xuqiu lying on the ground. He was covered in blood, lying alone in the snow.

"Nan Xuqiu!"

Chi Jinjin ran over in a hurry, and Uncle Zhuang was so frightened that he fell down.
