Chapter 6 Anyone who knows He Qian knows Song Li
Back at the Song family's small suite on the fifth floor, Fan Wuju finally coaxed Song Youran into taking the medicine. While comforting her to sleep in the room, she turned back and gestured that they could leave first.
Song Li rushed out the door without hesitation.
Du Zhanrong followed, closed the door, and came out at five o'clock in the morning.
Three hours had left them all exhausted.
The old building had no elevator, so Song Li held back her tears and rushed downstairs in one breath.
Du Zhanrong held his seemingly dislocated right hand tightly with his left hand, endured the pain, and kept up with her.
Song Li finally stopped by the car, panting, trying to stop himself from thinking about those scenes.
Du Zhanrong took out his cell phone from his pocket and said, "I'll send someone to take you back."
He knew his hands were no longer able to drive.
Song Li turned around to look at him when she heard his gentle voice. "I'm sorry, Mr. Du, for taking you so long. I can go back by myself! Thank you so much for saving my sister!"
"Saving a life is better than building a seven-story pagoda." Du Zhanrong half-jokingly said while making a phone call.
"No need to call anyone, I can go back by myself." Song Li grabbed his cell phone, unable to bother him anymore.
"Hiss..." Du Zhanrong's right hand was touched.
"What's wrong with you?" Song Li then realized that his right hand had been hanging down against his body and he didn't dare to move. "Did you fall and hurt your hand?"
"It's okay, you go back first, I'll call someone over."
Seeing his painful expression, Song Li recalled the scene where he hugged Song Youran and fell heavily together. He guessed that he was seriously injured.
"Let's go to the hospital first. Give me the car keys."
Du Zhanrong stood there stupidly for a few seconds and took out his car keys.
Song Li opened the door for him, carefully helped him sit in, and then started the car.
Along the way, Du Zhanrong stared at Song Li's profile. Her hair was a little messy, but it made her even more intriguing.
"Mr. Du, I'm really sorry for wasting your time and causing you to get injured." Song Li felt really guilty.
Du Zhanrong didn't think it was a troublesome thing. "Don't take it to heart. I would do the same thing even if it was just a stranger. I just didn't control it well and accidentally hurt you."
Song Li turned back slightly to look at him. Even in the dim light, she could see that he was trying hard to endure the pain. "No, you saved my sister's life. If you are injured, I will definitely take responsibility."
She didn't want to owe any debt, especially a debt of favor, but today, he saved her sister's life.
She will be responsible... Du Zhanrong felt a little happy when he heard this, and he didn't want her to feel burdened. "I'm surprised you can actually drive a manual transmission car?"
Huh? Song Li didn't expect him to change the subject so quickly. Thinking about it, he realized that he was talking about his car.
"The girls I know can barely drive a manual transmission, and you drive it so well."
Song Li forced a smile. It was all because of He Qian, because most of his cars were manual transmission and she often had to drive for him, that's why she was so familiar with the operation.
Du Zhanrong thought she would be proud of this, but he saw embarrassment in her subtle expression.
"Is Yuancheng Central Hospital okay? Or do you have a designated hospital?" Seeing that they were almost there, Song Li asked him first. After all, they were rich and even had fixed doctors in the hospital.
"Yes, sure. My cousin is at the Central Hospital. She should still be on duty. I'll give her a call first."
Song Li sped up and arrived at Yuancheng Central Hospital.
After parking the car and helping Du Zhanrong get out, a female doctor in a white coat walked out of the hospital gate.
"What time is it now, Du Zhanrong? How did you get injured?" The female doctor ran over and observed his hand, her tone not very good.
"I accidentally fell!" Du Zhanrong pretended to be relaxed and looked at Song Li, "Let me introduce you, this is my cousin, Du Qianyuan, a surgeon at this hospital."
"Song Li?" Du Qianyuan then looked at the woman beside him.
"Hello, Dr. Du." Song Li nodded and greeted her. He had heard some rumors about this woman.
"Do you know each other?" Du Zhanrong asked curiously.
"Anyone who knows He Qian knows Song Li." Du Qianyuan and He Qian have known each other since childhood. Although He Qian is a playboy in front of the public and changes women one after another, the secretary Song Li by his side has been the same for ten years!
After a round of greetings, Du Zhanrong was sent to the examination room. Song Li waited outside. By this time, it was already dawn. A few people began to walk in the hospital corridor, and a sparse noise began to be heard in the corner...
When she calmed down, she realized that she was very tired and uncomfortable all over. She was leaning back in the chair and could hardly open her eyes.
How she wished she could be her true self for a day, without having to live in fear, without having to worry about the difficulties at home, without having to be on call for He Qian 24 hours a day and feeling terrified...
Oh, He Qian! Song Li was instantly horrified. It was already daybreak. He Qian must have returned to Ciyun Pavilion. He didn't see her. It was terrible!
But she couldn't find her phone, and she couldn't remember where she had lost it...
At this moment, Du Zhanrong was pushed out of the examination room.
Song Li didn't have time to think and hurried over. He saw him lying on a stretcher, looking exhausted. The shirt on his right arm had been cut open, revealing his swollen arm. A large area was covered with black and purple bruises...
"How is it? Is it serious?"
Du Zhanrong opened his eyes and saw her worried face.
Du Qianyuan came out later. "The preliminary diagnosis is soft tissue injury, which is quite serious. We need to take an X-ray now. Because it is close to the joint area, if it is confirmed to be a ruptured joint capsule, surgery will be required immediately."
Song Li was shocked. How did he endure such a serious injury without even crying out in pain?
"You go back first, your phone is in my pocket." Du Zhanrong's voice was a little hoarse, probably because he had just experienced a period of endurance while treating his injuries.
Song Li was about to say something when Du Qianyuan pulled the phone out of Du Zhanrong's suit pocket and stuffed it into her hand: "Leave the hospital first."
The reason she was allowed to leave was because Du Qianyuan had already informed Du Zhanrong's family. Once his parents came and saw this woman running around, her days would be over.
Song Li understood that he was of noble status and if he was injured, a large number of people would definitely come to his family, so she had no right to stay here.
Du Zhanrong was also helpless. He couldn't stop Du Qianyuan from telling his parents, so he could only let her leave first. "Go back. I'll call you later."
Song Li took the phone and stopped in disappointment, not daring to continue walking with his stretcher. He could only watch him being pushed farther and farther away by the two nurses.
After they walked away, Du Qianyuan spoke again, "Stay away from her. There are so many women in Yuancheng. Are you so hungry that you can't choose what to eat after breaking up with the German woman?"
Du Zhanrong was silent. In fact, he had considered it, but he could not resist the magic of Song Li.
"Second Aunt will be here soon. Tell me the truth and don't push me out! Du Zhanrong, you're amazing! This injury is not light. How can you be like this from a fall? Go lie to your mother!" Du Qianyuan put his hands in his pockets and rolled his eyes at him. "Did you hear me? Stay away from Song Li. She's not the right one for you!"
"I thought that even if everyone opposed it, at least you would support me!" Du Zhanrong's heart sank. After all, his cousin went against the family's wishes for love and would rather give up her status as the eldest daughter of the Du family to marry a small doctor.
Now that he wanted to pursue Song Li, he was met with opposition from Du Qianyuan.
"I'm not talking about her family background. I have no objection even if you pursue any poor family. But Song Li," Du Qianyuan frowned, "you'd better stop as soon as possible!"
"Why? She's fine!"
"How could she stay with He Qian for so long?"
"She is just He Qian's secretary."
"Don't worry, Song Li is more than just a secretary to He Qian! Everyone in Yuancheng knows that Song Li is He Qian's unclear female secretary!"
Du Zhanrong was speechless for a moment. It's not that he didn't notice He Qian's attitude towards Song Li. It wouldn't be an exaggeration to say that he was sarcastic and harsh on several occasions, but afterwards He Qian always looked silent and thoughtful.
Especially on the day when he confessed his love to Song Li, he even kissed Song Li. Looking back now, He Qian's expression at that time was indeed extremely ugly.
Even that time in Qi Liang's conference room, Song Li's face instantly turned red because of He Qian's look!
Even though his understanding of He Qian only lasted until middle school, with He Qian's current status, no one would dare to gossip even if he openly asked for Song Li, but he never admitted it!
And considering his recent contact with Song Li, especially last night, he was completely convinced that Song Li was not within He Qian's prey range, just looking at her family background. The women around He Qian, which one didn't give expensive bags and jewelry, which one wasn't glamorous!
Therefore, Du Zhanrong firmly believed that Song Li "does not belong" to He Qian.
