His palms and arms were rubbed raw and bloody, and the fabric of his pants was torn to varying degrees around his knees.
This is just Lu Ying's perspective from above.
When she bent down to ask the man if he was alright and if he needed to be taken to the hospital,
Just as the man looked up, she noticed that even his upper lip was swollen from rubbing!
His entire upper lip was bluish-purple, swollen and protruding high, with blood oozing from the lip seam.
Lu Ying was speechless; the man had fallen so badly.
It's also ugly.
The man looked up and froze when he saw her. Seeing his expression, Lu Ying couldn't help but think of the "insurance fraud" scams that had been frequently reported in the news recently.
She immediately let go of the man's hand, took two steps back, and said, "You fell on your own, it has nothing to do with me."
As she spoke, she pointed to the security camera at the corner not far away and continued, "There are more cameras there, so you can't extort money from me."
The man finally came to his senses, looking flustered as if his scam had been exposed, unsure of what to do with his hands and feet.
He tried to cover his face with both hands, but then seemed to realize it was too late. He could only turn his injured left cheek to the side and stammer, "N-no, I...I have an emergency..."
Then he suddenly bowed 180 degrees to Lu Ying, startling the woman who clutched her bag tightly.
"I'm so sorry!"
Then he got up, limping, and quickly went to help the tram that had lost many pieces of its outer shell.
I tried to lift him up but couldn't, so I kept trying.
Lu Ying couldn't bear to look at his bloodied arm and went to help him.
Then the man, not daring to look at her, bowed slightly and thanked her again, "Thank you, thank you..."
Lu Ying simply stood far away, waiting for him to drive away.
Noticing her actions, the man apologized sincerely again, then drove away quickly and wobbled in his tram.
After the man left, Zhang Qiaoyu called her.
The woman knew she was having an interview, and since she happened to be shopping nearby, she dragged Lu Ying back with her.
Zhang Qiaoyu looked at the swollen wound without ever frowning. "Only you are kind-hearted. If it were me, I wouldn't care whether the other person was in an emergency or not!"
"It's impressive that he managed to drive the tram into the green belt! He almost hit someone and just drove off like that, he got off easy!"
The office building has a fountain and interspersed green belts downstairs, which are for people to enjoy and pass by. Riding bicycles is strictly prohibited inside.
Hearing Zhang Qiaoyu say this, Lu Ying just wondered what urgent matter that person had that would make them so anxious as to drive their tram into the green belt.
...
When he arrived at the company, his colleague Lao Lin was so shocked by his face that he spilled the coffee he was drinking.
"Holy crap! You're being chased?"
Old Lin hurriedly put the cup down, rushed to the company entrance to look around, and was about to close the glass door with his hand on it.
Xi Jun sighed, lightly covering her swollen and painful face, and hopped on one foot to sit in the nearest seat, Old Lin's seat.
"Stop looking, he wasn't being chased, he just fell off his bike."
Old Lin then composed himself and examined him closely, feeling the pain more and more as he looked at him.
"No way, bro. You're really something, a grown man like you managed to fall off a bike like that!"
The man gave him a thumbs up, "You're amazing! I really admire you!"
Xi Jun didn't know what to say either. Ignoring the pain in her body, she asked Lao Lin about the important matter, "Where did the problem go? Hurry up and finish so we can go back and cook for the kids."
Most of Xi Jun's colleagues knew that she also had a son who was in junior high school.
Old Lin didn't waste any more time and quickly pointed out the problem.
Xi Jun took a look and realized that it was indeed a bit tricky, but not irreversible.
Without wasting any more time, the two men sat down at the desk and got to work.
When I got home, no one was home yet.
Xi Jun dialed Xi Qingxu's number, but no one answered.
He sighed softly, hung up the phone, and typed a text message: When are you coming back?
Without waiting for a reply, he placed his phone on the table and went to look for iodine solution.
The small home, less than 50 square meters, is crammed full, yet neat and orderly, without a trace of clutter.
Xi Jun remembered the location of the first-aid kit, accurately found it, took it to the small table, took out iodine from it, dipped a cotton swab in it, and applied it to her abraded arm.
He was applying lotion to his arm when, without realizing it, his thoughts drifted back to the time he fell that afternoon.
He was supposed to be off today, but he received an urgent call from his colleague Lao Lin, who said that he didn't know if he had been sabotaged, but the data he had prepared suddenly became messed up.
He and Lao Lin had been working on this data for several days straight, and the important things were all done. He caught a bit of a cold from staying up late, so he took a day off to rest.
I had just gotten home in the morning and hadn't even had enough sleep when I was told in the afternoon that there was a problem with the data I had prepared.
Without wasting a moment, he drove his electric car straight to the company.
In his haste, he forgot to go to the parking lot from the side of the building and drove the car directly into the green belt, almost hitting someone.
The thought of the woman's face sent a jolt through his chest, and he pressed down hard, making himself gasp in pain.
"hiss……"
Xi Jun was in pain, but she still had a smile on her face.
Recalling the woman's attire, she must have worked in that office building, which means he still has a chance to meet her again.
Xi Jun couldn't help but feel happy just thinking about meeting women again.
The umbrella from many years ago ended up in his hands, and his heart was also put away and put away.
That year, when he went to pick up Xi Qingxu and take her to the provincial capital, he almost bumped into the woman. He thought about waiting for her to come out to see if she was the same girl from back then, but he was afraid that she wasn't.
Moreover, after several years, if a woman appears in a primary school, she may have already married and had children, and is there to send her child to school.
So he hesitated for a while, but finally decided to just leave.
Thinking of this, Xi Jun's smile faded.
"So many years have passed, her children must be all grown up by now..."
The man muttered a self-deprecating remark, then quickly composed himself and continued disinfecting the wound.
After all the disinfection was completed, the clock on the wall showed that it was almost ten o'clock, and there was still no reply on her phone. Xi Jun was starting to get anxious.
Just as I reached for my phone to make another call, I heard the sound of a key unlocking the door.
The old wooden door was pushed open, and a tall, slender figure appeared in the dim hallway under the light of the incandescent bulb inside the room.
A loose-fitting school uniform jacket with a white base and red and black color scheme, a fitted inner lining with a pure white and red and black collar, loose-fitting dark gray school trousers, and white sneakers with clean uppers and slightly dirty edges.
The boy had slightly long, black hair that didn't cover his ears and slightly touched his eyes. His half-hidden eyebrows were thick and black, and his drooping eyelids had thick, long, and curled eyelashes. His nose was straight and high, casting a shadow on his lips. His lips were of moderate thickness and had a healthy, glossy color.
With a slender hand holding the handle, he gently turned it, and the door closed.
