Chapter 31 Accidentally Saving a Big Shot
The cries for help continued, but they were noticeably weaker, and there were faint hints of Shanghai dialect mixed in.
The familiar local accent immediately reminded Lin Siqiao of his grandmother and his maternal grandmother.
What if it were these two old people lying on the ground today?
Lin Siqiao couldn't imagine it.
She knew very well that she was not a savior and could not save everyone.
But she couldn't just watch an old man struggle in pain and die in front of her!
After figuring everything out, Lin Siqiao ran upstairs as fast as he could. The room where the accident happened was right above his head, and the corresponding room number should be 406.
The door was locked from the inside, and Lin Siqiao kicked it several times before he finally got it open.
The cabin was in a mess, with cups, plates, tables and chairs all scattered all over the floor.
A well-dressed old lady was lying on the floor, breathing rapidly and with a cyanotic face!
Lin Siqiao was not sure whether the old lady's internal organs were injured, so he did not dare to move her.
"Ma'am, how are you doing?"
The old lady's lips moved and her breath was weak.
"medicine……"
Following the general direction of the old lady's finger, Lin Siqiao quickly took out a bottle of medicine from the bag on the ground.
The kettle in the room had long been broken, and there was no time to get water. Lin Siqiao directly poured two pills into the old lady's mouth.
While helping her calm down, I also calmed the old lady's emotions.
"Don't worry, the ship will be docked soon."
"Hold on a little longer!"
After the old lady took the medicine, her breathing became noticeably smoother.
"Thank you, girl..."
"Don't talk yet, and keep your strength."
"By the way, can you move around and see if you feel any discomfort?"
People of this age have very brittle bones and may break them with the slightest bump.
After hearing what she said, the old lady finally reacted.
"My ankle hurts."
Lin Siqiao rolled up the old lady's trouser legs and saw a bruise on her ankle. It must have been accidentally twisted when she fell off the bed just now.
"It's okay. I'll carry you on my back when we get off the boat."
The old lady was so excited that she didn't know what to say.
At this time, the ship had changed direction and was slowly approaching the shore. The huge inertia caused the cabin to shake even more violently.
The first-class cabin is a suite with a complete range of furniture and furnishings.
It is also because of this that the furniture will soon sway uncontrollably from side to side due to inertia.
Sudden! The wardrobe on one side came crashing down heavily.
"Be careful..." the old lady said anxiously.
Lin Siqiao was quick-witted and quick-handed. He protected the old lady and rolled to the side, directly rolling under the bed.
A loud bang!
The wardrobe fell to the ground a few centimeters away from them.
Lin Siqiao was frightened and broke out in a cold sweat, and the old lady couldn't stop shaking.
If that force hit them, they would at least have broken bones if not killed.
Fortunately, the ship's shaking was getting smaller and smaller, and it looked like it would reach the shore safely.
Lin Siqiao carried the old lady directly to the bed, and at the same time, a series of footsteps were heard.
Two men in green military uniforms strode in. When they saw the chaos in the cabin, they were immediately shocked!
They shouldn't have left the old lady here alone.
"Madam...how are you?"
"I'm fine."
Seeing their worried looks, the old lady waved her hand.
"It's not your fault. I asked you to go down and participate in the rescue."
"I will talk to the commander personally."
After the old lady finished speaking, she took Lin Siqiao’s hand and expressed her gratitude.
"Girl, this time it's all thanks to you."
"If it weren't for you, my old bones might have been broken here."
"You saved my life. We in the Lu family will remember this favor."
"If you need our Lu family's help in the future, just ask us. We will never refuse within our capabilities!"
"By the way, I still don't know your name, girl?"
When Lin Siqiao heard the word "Commander", he instantly guessed the old lady's identity.
No wonder the staff specifically reminded her when she got on board.
"Madam, my name is Lin Siqiao."
"Si Qiao Si Qiao is a good name!"
"I'll call you Xiao Qiao, so don't be polite to me. Just call me Grandma Lu."
"Yes, Grandma Lu."
"So good."
Mrs. Lu smiled and said, "Come with me to the hospital for a check-up later, otherwise I will be worried."
"No, Grandma Lu, I'm fine."
Since the other party said that he could speak up if he had anything to say, Lin Siqiao didn't act pretentiously and spoke directly.
"Grandma Lu, I do have something I would like to ask you for help with."
"you say."
"I have to go to Shanghai urgently. The ship is docked here now, and I'm not sure if it will return tomorrow."
"I want to go directly to the train station after I get off the ship. I wonder if you have..."
"You want to buy a train ticket to Shanghai, right?"
"Um."
Lin Siqiao nodded. She was just an ordinary person now, and she was not sure if she could buy a ticket when she went to the train station.
This interview is very important to Lin Siqiao, and she doesn't want any accidents to happen.
Lin Siqiao thought that buying a train ticket should not be difficult for the Lu family.
Things turned out exactly as she expected, and Mrs. Lu agreed immediately after hearing it.
"Don't worry, Grandma Lu will take care of this."
After saying that, he looked at the guard beside him and said, "Xiao He, when we get off the boat, you will personally send her to the train station and buy her a ticket to Shanghai."
"Yes, old lady."
But these alone are not enough to repay the other party for saving my life.
Several members of the Lu family are in high positions, and those who want to curry favor with them can be said to be able to circle the Huangpu River several times.
Just now, Mrs. Lu thought that the little girl wanted the Lu family to do her a big favor.
As a result, people just wanted to buy a train ticket to Shanghai!
Old Mrs. Lu didn't know what to say to the silly girl in front of her. She wondered if she knew what an opportunity she had missed.
Forget it, the little girl is not smart enough, so she has to worry about it.
When getting off the boat, Mrs. Lu took off the jade bracelet that she had worn for decades and handed it to Lin Siqiao.
This was part of the dowry her parents gave her when she got married.
"Grandma Lu, this bracelet is too valuable. I can't accept it."
Lin Siqiao also collected a lot of precious jewelry in his later life. The price of full green beads like this one would be at least eight figures.
"Just keep what's given to you."
"This is Grandma Lu's address and phone number. I will be back in Shanghai in a few days."
"When you finish your work, you must come to the Lu family for a simple meal."
"Okay, go quickly, you'll miss the train if you're late."
Old Mrs. Lu did not give Lin Siqiao the chance to refuse. In her opinion, these were just external things.
Considering that the little girl saved his life today, let alone giving her a bracelet, even half of his fortune would be fine.
