For many people, tonight should be an unforgettable night.
“Ah…” Ma Xiaoxiao found Yan Chen unconscious in the corridor.
Tao Xingxing rushed over anxiously, knelt down and listened to Yan Chen’s heartbeat, and let out a sigh of relief.
Thankfully, he had a pulse.
Yan Chen opened his eyes, and in the dim corridor, the girl’s eyes shone like the brightest stars in the night sky.
Ignoring the pain in his neck, Yan Chen immediately asked, “Are you alright?”
Tao Xingxing shook her head, “What happened?”
Yan Chen said, “Someone knocked me out, fortunately, they didn’t hurt you guys. We should call the police.”
“First, let’s take you to the hospital.”
“No need, I’m fine.”
Tao Xingxing glared at him, Yan Chen touched his nose and said nothing.
“I’ll go with you to the hospital along with your father. Ming Jing, I’m sorry for the trouble tonight, turning a nice birthday party into such a mess.” Wu Jiaqi frowned, her face full of sorrow.
“Auntie, I’ll go with you guys.”
“Alright, stay with Xingxing first. Your uncle and I will go home and get some clothes.”
After taking a few steps, Wu Jiaqi said worriedly, “Xingxing, don’t run around, stay with Ming Jing.”
As soon as Wu Jiaqi left, Tao Xingxing clung to Ming Jing’s arm and smiled, “You were amazing just now. I was completely astonished. You hid your skills so well, turns out you’re a martial arts master.”
Tao Xingxing seemed to be completely unaffected by the earlier events, back to her carefree self.
Ming Jing touched her hand, “Are you cold?”
A gust of wind blew, and it was indeed quite cold. Tao Xingxing shivered suddenly.
“Ming Jing, since you know martial arts, could you teach me some moves? So that next time someone tries to bully me, I can teach them a lesson.”
“It’s too late for you to learn now, but I can teach you some practical self-defense techniques.”
“My dear Ming Jing, I knew you’re the best to me.”
Tao Xingxing looked up and saw Yan Chen staring at Ming Jing. She snorted, “Yan Chen, are you stunned?”
Yan Chen shook his head, his eyes still fixed on Ming Jing’s face, and hesitated, “The person who knocked me out just now, his eyes are very similar to Ming Jing’s.”
Tao Xingxing looked at Ming Jing’s eyes, “Are you blind? Ming Jing’s eyes are so beautiful, how could that person possibly look like her?”
Yan Chen scratched his head in confusion, “I’m not quite sure, maybe I really saw it wrong.”
Ming Jing’s eyes flashed with a faint smile.
Tao Xingxing and Wu Jiaqi got into Ming Jing’s car, while Yan Chen took Tao Qian’s car, and they all rushed to the hospital.
Tao Qian, worried, had someone take x-rays of Yan Chen to make sure he was alright.
When Tao Xingxing went in for a checkup, Wu Jiaqi sat lifelessly on a bench outside the door, while Tao Qian softly comforted her.
“Auntie, don’t worry, Xingxing will be fine.” Wu Jiaqi looked up and saw a gentle, beautiful face with kind and compassionate eyes.
Wu Jiaqi stared at her, suddenly thought of something, abruptly stood up and gripped Ming Jing’s hand. She opened her mouth to speak but was speechless in the end.
She couldn’t get an innocent person involved.
“Auntie, I’m a good friend of Xingxing. If you need any help, please let me know.” Ming Jing said softly.
Wu Jiaqi held Ming Jing’s hand, “Thank you, Ming Jing.”
Tao Xingxing finished her checkup, both physically and mentally, she was perfectly healthy.
Tao Qian received a call from the police station. He had reported an incident earlier and quickly canceled it, but the station called again to check on their situation. Wu Jiaqi snatched the phone, explained the situation to the officer and hung up.
Yan Chen quietly asked Tao Xingxing, “Why doesn’t your mother call the police? It’s so strange.”
Tao Xingxing shook her head, “I don’t know either. What does that person want? Does my mom know him? Since my mom doesn’t want to call the police, you shouldn’t talk about it either.”
Yan Chen nodded, “Be careful as well, something seems fishy about this whole thing.”
As they were leaving the hospital, they passed by the Hematology Department on the fifth floor. A girl carrying a thermos entered and, upon seeing Ming Jing, excitedly exclaimed, “Miss? What are you doing here?”
Xiao Ying’s face changed instantly, “Miss, you’re not sick, are you?”
Ming Jing shook her head, “I’m here with Xingxing for a check-up.”
Xiao Ying breathed a sigh of relief.
She immediately greeted Tao Xingxing with a smile, “Hello, you must be Miss’s friend, right? My name is Xiao Ying, and I’m a maid for the Zhu family.”
