When Jiang Yuwei pushed Ning Huaizhi downstream, they saw that many people had surrounded the riverbank.
"Oh dear, such a small child fell in, I'm afraid he won't survive!"
"Yes, how pitiful!"
Upon hearing this, Jiang Yuwei felt her head explode with a buzzing sound. Forgetting everything else, she walked and shouted:
"Ning Zhao, Ning Wan, where are you? Come back with your mother!"
"Zhao'er, Wan'er, come out quickly, don't scare your mother!"
Jiang Yuwei cried as she searched for the two children, shouting urgently all the while.
Ning Huaizhi's expression wasn't much better. He grabbed the hand of a passerby next to him and asked:
"Brother, have you ever seen a boy and a girl? The boy is about waist-high to you, and the girl is a little shorter than the boy."
The man, his hand held tightly by Ning Huaizhi, hurriedly shook his head and said:
"I've never seen it before, I've never seen it before. Go ask someone else!"
Seeing this, Ning Huaizhi had no choice but to let go of the man's hand. He pushed the wheelchair himself, asking around and asking people. The more he asked, the colder his heart became. What would he do if the child who fell into the river was Ning Zhao or Ning Wan? If it weren't for his crippled legs, he could have jumped into the river to save the child by now...
Ning Huaizhi's mind became more and more chaotic and agitated. With red eyes, he kept hitting his legs with his hands.
Jiang Yuwei, who was searching everywhere for Ning Zhao and Ning Wan, noticed that Ning Huaizhi seemed a bit off. She quickly stepped forward, grabbed Ning Huaizhi's hand, and cried:
"Huaizhi, it's all my fault. Don't hit yourself. Your leg has only just started to get better..."
Ning Huaizhi gritted his teeth and said:
"It's all my fault. I'm a useless man. I can't even protect my wife and children. What kind of man am I? I might as well just die!"
Hearing Ning Huaizhi's words, Jiang Yuwei felt even more remorseful. If she hadn't let the two children go shopping without worry, things wouldn't have turned out this way. If something had really happened to Ning Zhao and Ning Wan, Jiang Yuwei wouldn't want to live in this world anymore.
Jiang Yuwei can still recall the scene of her first meeting with Ning Zhao and Ning Wan. When she first arrived in this world, she was unfamiliar with everyone and everything, and the only people she could rely on were these two children. If the two children were gone, she...
Jiang Yuwei felt increasingly heartbroken as she thought about it, so she firmly grasped Ning Huaizhi's hand and said:
"Huaizhi, I have to go down and save that child. I can't wait any longer. What if that child who fell into the water is..."
Ning Huaizhi gripped Jiang Yuwei's hand tightly and said urgently:
"I won't let you talk nonsense. You're not allowed to go down there. The current is so strong, and you can't swim. If you go down there recklessly, aren't you just going to your death?"
The two were locked in a heated standoff when a small, round head emerged from a gap in the crowd, curiously observing them and speaking:
"Father, Mother, what are you doing?"
Upon hearing the voice, Ning Huaizhi and Jiang Yuwei looked in the direction of the sound with surprise and delight, only to see Ning Wan tilting her head and looking at them with a puzzled expression.
Seeing this, Jiang Yuwei quickly pulled Ning Wan out of the crowd and embraced her. Jiang Yuwei cried and said:
"My Wan'er, my dear Wan'er, you scared your mother to death."
As she spoke, Jiang Yuwei pushed Ning Wan aside and looked her up and down, asking:
Are you alright? Are you hurt?
Ning Wan shook her head and said:
"I'm fine, Mommy, I'm perfectly alright!"
Seeing this, Jiang Yuwei felt relieved, but then suddenly remembered something and hurriedly asked:
"Where's your brother? Where's your brother?"
Ning Wan turned around, pointed in the direction of the river, and slowly said:
"My brother! My brother went down to save someone! A young lady fell into the water!"
Jiang Yuwei was shocked to hear this:
"Nonsense! Your brother is just a kid too, how could he rush down to save people by himself!"
Jiang Yuwei's heart, which had just been at ease, started to race again. She hurriedly pulled Ning Wan and tried to squeeze to the front of the crowd to see what was happening in the river.
At this moment, Ning Huaizhi, sitting in his wheelchair, also frowned and pursed his lips. He knew that Ning Zhao could swim, but Ning Zhao had never saved anyone before and had no experience in saving people. If the child who fell into the water struggled a little, Ning Zhao would probably die in the river with her. Thinking this, Ning Huaizhi couldn't help but grip the armrests of his wheelchair tightly.
Ning Huaizhi pushed his wheelchair and tried to squeeze into the crowd.
"Make way, everyone, make way so I can get through! My child is in the water!"
At this moment, some of the people who had been pushed aside impatiently started cursing:
"A disabled person like you has to come and join in the fun? Your child is inside, can you even have a child?"
"Exactly! Her legs are practically useless, and she's still trying to have a baby! Hahaha!"
Upon hearing this, Ning Huaizhi suddenly looked up at the two of them, staring at them with murderous intent in his eyes.
"What, you cripple thinks you can stand up and hit someone? Hahaha!"
Ning Huaizhi pushed the wheelchair directly to the two of them, grabbed one of their wrists with one hand, and with a little force, there were two "crack" sounds, the sound of bones breaking.
"Aaaaaah, let me go!!"
"Ouch! It hurts! It hurts so much!"
Seeing that the two still dared to point at him, Ning Huaizhi let go of their hands and grabbed their other hands. With two more "crack" sounds, their other hands were also broken.
Ning Huaizhi then released their hands, clapped his hands in disgust, and looked at them calmly, saying:
"You don't need to stand up even if I hit you."
The two wanted to say something more, but their broken wrists were in too much pain, so they hung their hands at their sides, grimaced at each other, and glared fiercely at Ning Huaizhi before speaking:
"You just wait!"
Ning Huaizhi glanced at the two of them disdainfully and said in a deep voice:
"What am I waiting for? To see you all crippled like me? Except I only have legs broken, you only have arms broken. If that's not enough, I don't mind breaking both your legs too!"
Upon hearing this, the two immediately ran far away, spat in Ning Huaizhi's direction, and hurriedly went to find a doctor to treat their fractures, fearing that if they delayed any longer, their hands would really break.
Seeing that the two had left, Ning Huaizhi squeezed into the crowd again. This time, the others had also witnessed Ning Huaizhi's prowess, so they naturally dared not say anything disrespectful to him and made way for him.
Ning Huaizhi finally managed to squeeze to the front to observe the situation in the water, only to see Jiang Yuwei climb onto the railing on the shore, making a move to jump into the water.
Seeing this, Ning Huaizhi immediately became anxious and shouted to the crowd:
"Everyone, stop my wife! She's having a moment of despair and wants to jump into the river to commit suicide. She can't swim."
Those standing near Jiang Yuwei, hearing Ning Huaizhi shout this, hurriedly tried to stop her.
"Silly girl, don't jump!"
"This river is so deep! If you jump in, you won't be able to get back up!"
