I am your cousin
Xu Yuhe's eyes were stunned for a moment, but soon turned cold.
He pushed Ning Qian's hand away and said coldly, "It's okay."
Ning Qian looked at his thin background and counted silently in her heart: 1, 2, 3.
Sure enough, after three sounds, Xu Yuhe's eyes darkened and he fell backwards.
Ning Qian caught him in her arms as he fell to the ground.
I thought he was very heavy, but he was so light that even his skeleton hurt.
In the original book, Xu Yuhe passed out due to weakness from blood loss just minutes after leaving the bar.
Yu Jiangnan happened to have a conflict with Qin Beichen, so she returned to the bar where she used to work, wanting to revisit the memories of Qin Beichen falling in love with her at first sight. Unexpectedly, by mistake, she picked up the unconscious Xu Yuhe on the road.
Now Yu Jiangnan did not appear here as expected, but I met him by chance.
Ning Qian fell into deep thought.
"Save...me..." Xu Yuhe murmured.
Ning Qian's eyes fell on his face, and she saw that he was struggling and had a strong will to survive.
"Don't worry, I will save you."
Perhaps it was because of Ning Qian's promise that Xu Yuhe finally relaxed and fell into a coma.
Ten minutes later, the ambulance came honking.
Passersby in the square didn't know what was happening and suddenly started to make a commotion.
"Oh my God, how did this guy get injured like this?"
"People nowadays are young and hot-tempered. I'm afraid they're fighting over their girlfriends, right?"
"Beauty is a disaster!"
"Don't talk nonsense, I don't even know what this is about."
Ning Qian was given a headache by the noise and just hoped that the medical staff would find her location as soon as possible.
She was really afraid that if she delayed too long, Xu Yuhe would die in her hands due to weakness.
She looked around and reached out for help.
"It hurts..." Xu Yuhe frowned, as if he was having a nightmare.
Ning Qian patted his face gently, trying to wake him up.
"Hold on a little longer, and the pain will go away when you get to the hospital."
Xu Yuhe couldn't listen and just kept saying it hurt.
Ning Qian's heart also began to lift, and her expression became heavy.
At first, I wanted to save him because I saw his future value, but after seeing this scene, I began to feel sorry for him.
"The injured is here, hurry." Medical staff in white coats ran over.
"Doctor, his arm was injured and he's unconscious. He keeps crying out in pain." Ning Qian breathed a sigh of relief when she saw the doctor coming.
"Does the victim have any other external injuries?" The doctor took Xu Yuhe and examined him carefully.
"I have no idea……"
The doctor's eyes widened instantly and he questioned, "Aren't you a relative of the injured person?"
"I'm not." Ning Qian replied.
"Who are you to him?" the doctor asked.
"A passerby..." Ning Qian felt a little embarrassed to answer this question.
"..." The doctor was also confused and asked, "Do you want to go with the car?"
"Yes!" Ning Qian nodded without hesitation. She was determined to make her the first person he saw when he woke up.
Otherwise, how would Xu Yuhe know that he was his savior.
"Okay, get in the car with us."
The doctor waved to two medical staff and lifted Xu Yuhe onto a stretcher.
"Be gentle, be slow." Ning Qian reminded from the side.
The doctor looked as if he understood what was going on and lectured Ning Qian, "You are dishonest, little girl."
“…”
Ning Qian was confused. What on earth was she dishonest about?

Since Ning Qian was particularly well-off, she arranged a high-end ward for Xu Yuhe, which cost 5,000 yuan per night.
There is a large chandelier, sofa, TV, refrigerator, and a dedicated nurse to serve him 24 hours a day.
As the saying goes, money should be spent wisely. Ning Qian suddenly realized this truth.
She thought that Xu Yuhe would be especially grateful to her the moment he woke up.
One hour, two hours, three hours passed...
Xu Yuhe still showed no signs of waking up, and Ning Qian was getting tired of waiting.
So she asked the nurse again, "When will he wake up?"
Seeing her anxious, the nurse comforted her, "Don't worry, he only suffered a superficial wound. He's just weak from insufficient Qi and blood. He'll wake up after a little more rest."
"Well, thank you." Ning Qian stood up from the sofa, moved a stool and sat at the head of his bed.
"You're welcome." The nurse smiled faintly. "If this gentleman wakes up and knows that you care so much about him, he will definitely be very touched."
Ning Qian nodded in agreement, "I hope so."
"Believe me, if I were a man and had a girlfriend like this, I would be deeply touched." The nurse gave her an admiring look.
Ning Qian was no longer able to refute. Every time she explained that she was just a kind-hearted person, the nurse would give her a look that said, "Are you kidding me?"
Indeed, her behavior is incomprehensible to normal people. After all, who would be willing to spend so much money on a stranger?
When Xu Yuhe woke up, it was already late at night.
Ning Qian was sitting on the stool, dozing off from time to time.
He opened his hazy eyes and stared blankly at the ceiling. After a while, he looked at the environment in front of him in confusion.
When he discovered a strange woman at the head of the bed, surprise flashed in his eyes, and he asked in a low, hoarse voice, "Who are you? Why are you here?"
Then he murmured, "How am I here?"
Ning Qian saw that he was awake, surprise flashed in her eyes, and she forced herself to smile, "You are in the hospital. You fainted on the way, and I brought you here specially."
"Hospital? This is actually a hospital."
Xu Yuhe frowned and looked nervous.
"Yeah, what's wrong?" Ning Qian asked.
The hospital is not a monster. His expression looks like everyone wants to eat him.
The warm lights in the ward were on, illuminating the facilities inside clearly.
Xu Yuhe's eyes were wandering, his Adam's apple kept rolling, and he swallowed nervously.
"No, I can't stay here anymore!"
Xu Yuhe lifted the quilt and hurried to get out of bed.
Only then did he realize that his arm had been bandaged and wrapped in a full circle of bandages.
"Don't move for now. Your arm is injured. The doctor said you need to stay in bed and rest."
Ning Qian hurriedly dissuaded him.
Xu Yuhe seemed to have not heard a word. He moved quickly and ran to the door in the blink of an eye.
"Stop him quickly." Ning Qian shouted.
The nurse at the door was startled and quickly stopped him, "Sir, your injury requires rest and you shouldn't run around."
Xu Yuhe paused when he noticed him, looked around and made an excuse: "I need to go to the bathroom."
Seeing that nothing was wrong, the nurse breathed a sigh of relief and said with a smile, "There is a private bathroom in the room, for one person."
Seeing that he had been exposed, Xu Yuhe's face flushed immediately. After hesitating for a while, he said frankly: "Can I leave here quietly?"
"Why?" asked the nurse.
She even suspected that the young couple was having a quarrel.
"I..." Xu Yuhe lowered his head, looking at the leathery sneakers on his feet, and said in a hoarse voice, "I'm sorry, I may not be able to pay the medical expenses here. I only have a few hundred yuan on me right now."
The nurse looked obviously shocked, trembling her lips as she looked at Ning Qian who was walking towards her.
Ning Qian was also shocked. She really hadn't thought of this.
At that time, Xu Yuhe was just a kid struggling to make a living, not yet an artist owning a mansion worth billions.
A high-end ward that costs five thousand yuan a night is an astronomical figure for him.
These simple four digits can crush a teenager's self-esteem.
Ning Qian pretended to call him familiarly, "Xiao Xu, don't worry, my cousin has already paid for this."
Xu Yuhe was stunned for a moment, then turned around in surprise, "Do you know me?"
Ning Qian nodded solemnly, "Yes, I know you. I'm your distant cousin."
Xu Yuhe's eyes were complicated as he stared at Ning Qian intently.
The nurse's expression changed from surprise to astonishment, and finally she walked away in a daze, leaving the two of them alone in the room to talk.
"Don't lie to me, where do I have any relatives?"
When Xu Yuhe saw the nurse leave, he laughed at himself and sat down on the sofa dejectedly.
Ning Qian glanced at him and thought to herself that this kid was really hard to fool.
"I also didn't expect that I would have a distant cousin."
Xu Yuhe felt excited when he saw that her tone did not sound fake.
"Are you telling the truth?"
Seeing that he was already half-believing, Ning Qian made up a story: "Yes, my aunt left a note at home saying that she had sent you to the Pingshun Welfare Home."
Hearing that it was the welfare home where he had been, Xu Yuhe's eyes flickered and his expression began to waver. "What did the note say?"
Ning Qian didn't dare to say anything too outrageous. After thinking for a while, she said, "She said that she gave birth to a child out of wedlock and couldn't afford to raise you alone. She was also afraid that others would find out, so she had no choice but to send you to an orphanage."
"Then where is she now?" Xu Yuhe clenched his fists unconsciously.
Ning Qian shook her head and said that she almost believed it.
"More than ten years ago, she left a note and went out to work, and she never came back."
"You really didn't lie to me?" Xu Yuhe glanced at her coldly.
Ning Qian felt uneasy at this look, but she tried her best to appear sincere and said with a dry laugh, "Of course it's true. Is there anything about you that's worth my attention?"
Thinking of this, she suddenly remembered a key point and added, "By the way, there is a small red birthmark on your waist. It was there when you were born."
If Xu Yuhe only believed it 50% just now, now he believes it almost 80%.
He has never exposed his arms in front of outsiders, and only he knows about this private birthmark.
Thinking of this, his expression relaxed and he said in a calm voice, "Then how did you find me?"
Ning Qian thought about it, wondering what excuse she could use to make him completely believe her.
"I originally thought that finding you would be like looking for a needle in a haystack, but I didn't expect you to look exactly like your mother when she was young, as if you were carved from the same mold."
"I bumped into you once at the stir-fry restaurant where you ate, and I remembered you."
She remembered that Xu Yuhe lived a very difficult life. When he worked part-time, he could only go to the most remote small restaurant and eat fried rice for 6 yuan.
Xu Yuhe didn't know what memories he was lost in, he lowered his head and pursed his lips.
Ning Qian didn't dare to disturb him. What he needed at this time was rest.
After a while, Xu Yuhe finally spoke, choking with sobs: "Do you have a photo of her?"
Ning Qian didn't know how to answer, and a vague sense of bitterness rose in her heart.
In her previous life, she was also an orphan and she really wanted to know what her parents looked like. But in this life, she was no longer an orphan without support, but had a complete family. Even if this family was not particularly warm, it at least healed her lonely heart to a certain extent.
"No?" Xu Yuhe asked again.
Ning Qian shook her head. "It's been too long. No one lives in that old house. It has collapsed."
Hearing this, Xu Yuhe's face was filled with disappointment, but he did not ask Ning Qian any further questions, perhaps because he was afraid that the truth would be more difficult to accept than he had imagined.
Ning Qian immediately breathed a sigh of relief. If he continued to ask, no matter how good her story was, it would be exposed.
