Chapter 75: Which Hospital?

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Fu Huai’an implied that the sheepish Lin Nuan always seemed to be thinking about Fu Huai’an… Knowing that she was caught gazing at him, her ears flushed even more.

The phone inside Lin Nuan’s backpack vibrated. As it began to ring, Tang Zheng looked in Lin Nuan’s direction and said with a smile, “Look at how fated they are. I had no idea Miss Lin had the exact same ringtone as Fu Brother’s!”

Lin Nuan ignored Tang Zheng who harbored ill intentions. She took a glance at the caller ID and saw it was Liang Mulan. She picked it up.

“Hello, Mother…”

As soon as Lin Nuan answered, she heard Lin Ran’s desperate crying on the other end: “Lin Nuan… Mother fell from the elevator and she’s covered in blood. Father’s phone is turned off and Brother isn’t answering… I’m all by myself at the hospital, what should I do?! What should I do?!”

Lin Ran didn’t know why she called Lin Nuan. In the hospital, she was the only one present. Liang Mulan was in the emergency room and the butler went to take care of her registration. And so she began to panic. Lin Chen wasn’t picking up and Father’s phone was turned off because he was on a plane. Lin Ran had no idea who to contact. With Liang Mulan’s phone in her hands, she decided to call Lin Nuan.

Lin Nuan immediately stood up, dropping her chopsticks on the plate. Her heart seemed to dangle in mid-air as she grabbed her purse, ready to leave at any minute. “Which hospital is it?”

Her wrist was grabbed by Fu Huai’an. He stood up and took his suit jacket on the seat and asked, “Which hospital is it?”

Lin Nuan’s heart was beating incredibly fast. Her head was filled with frightening images of Liang Mulan covered all over in blood and her heart was caught in her throat. She couldn’t even articulate a single word. She was just terrified.

She opened her mouth but nothing came out. Her little face was pale as a sheet as she struggled to say something. Fu Huai’an grasped harder at her thin wrist. “It’s difficult to catch a taxi in the rain. I’ll send you there.”

“What happened?” Bai Xiaonian stood up and asked, seeing Lin Nuan’s awfully pale face.

“Fu Brother…” Tang Zheng threw the car keys to Fu Huai’an with a very perceptive look.

As he caught the car keys, Fu Huai’an pulled Lin Nuan along as he walked outside.

“Nuan Nuan!?” Bai Xiaonian wanted to chase after her but was quickly pulled back by Tang Zheng.

“If you really are Lin Nuan’s friend, then don’t go!” Tang Zheng said with a big grin, “No matter what happens, Fu Brother can handle it. He finally got an opportunity to be alone with his beloved so don’t meddle in it. These two people getting their certificate together… you need to give them space to nurture their relationship!”

Bai Xiaonian wanted to argue against Tang Zheng but felt he had a point.

Watching Fu Huai’an guide Lin Nuan through the rain and into the car seat, Bai Xiaonian yanked back her wrist from Tang Zheng’s grasp and yelled to the waiter, “Bill!”

…

The hospital.

When Lin Nuan arrived, she spotted Lin Ran standing at the entrance of the ward department, her head bent down. She jogged over and asked, “Where’s Mother?”

At that point, Liang Mulan’s situation was already stabilized. Her head and elbow both received stitches. Although the other results hadn’t come back yet, the doctor said it shouldn’t be a big problem and that they were all exterior injuries.

Liang Mulan was sent inside the emergency room covered with blood, thus Lin Ran called Lin Nuan in a moment of panic. After she’d calmed down, she began to very much regret her actions.

Seeing that Lin Ran wasn’t talking, Lin Nuan grasped her thin arm and raised her voice by a higher pitch, “Where’s Mother?”

Lin Nuan was always extra polite to Lin Ran, especially because of her real parents. She felt an extra sense of guilt towards Lin Ran and had never talked to her so loudly before.
