"I can't, I can't be a doctor. I get dizzy at the sight of blood." Jiang Yan immediately turned away, no longer daring to look. One more glance and she would faint again. Even so, Ye Wan had to help her leave the hospital.
...
Ye Wan had already cashed her bonus and planned to go shopping for her younger brother's birthday present. Jiang Yan had nothing else to do, so she went along with her. Ye Cheng particularly liked LEGO. In the past, Ye Wan was reluctant to buy him anything too expensive, never more than two hundred yuan. This time, she picked out a LEGO set for fifteen hundred yuan as his birthday gift.
"You have a younger brother?" Jiang Yan had been Ye Wan's classmate for over a year, yet she knew so little about her. She had always thought Ye Wan was an only child.
"Yes." Ye Wan's face lit up with happiness at the thought of her brother's smile.
"You're truly mysterious. I know nothing about your family situation, not even where you live."
Ye Wan didn't know how to answer. It wasn't that she was mysterious, but her circumstances were impossible to share with anyone. If Gu Yunting hadn't suddenly been stationed in Beijing, she would still be frantically juggling part-time jobs to earn money, with no time to go shopping with Jiang Yan. Gu Yunting's return had completely disrupted her life's rhythm.
After buying the gift, the two were preparing to leave the mall to hail a taxi when a car suddenly lost control and sped towards them. By the time they noticed, it was too late to dodge.
Suddenly, someone yanked them forcefully, pulling them away from danger. Jiang Yan fell to the ground, while Ye Wan was pulled into someone's arms, and they both tumbled to the ground.
"Ye Wan! Jun Xuechang?" The moment Jiang Yan got up, she looked for Ye Wan to see if she was injured. Turning her head, she saw Jun Li Chen pulling Ye Wan down with him.
The two looked at each other. A handsome man and a beautiful woman; Jiang Yan found the scene incredibly picturesque.
Ye Wan, held by Jun Li Chen, immediately remembered. She heard the man gasp, and his expression turned grim. She sat up and looked. It turned out that Jun Li Chen had used his arm to cushion her head, cutting it on the broken glass on the ground, and blood was flowing.
Seeing blood, Jiang Yan felt faint. She quickly turned away and said, "Ye Wan, quickly help Xuechang stop the bleeding. I'm feeling dizzy and can't look."
"It's nothing, just a minor injury," Jun Li Chen said nonchalantly.
"I'll stop the bleeding first, then we'll find a clinic to dress it." Ye Wan took tissues from her bag to press against the wound. His shirt was also torn.
After finding a clinic, Ye Wan accompanied Jun Li Chen inside. Jiang Yan stayed outside making a phone call to the police. The driver who drove recklessly must not be let off. Who knew if it was drunk driving or drug driving? Such people would do it again!
Ten minutes later, Ye Wan emerged with Jun Li Chen. Jiang Yan looked at Jun Li Chen's torn shirt, not daring to look closely, and said, "Let's go buy you a new one. Consider it thanks for saving our lives today."
"Okay, there's a men's clothing store ahead." Ye Wan agreed. If Jun Li Chen hadn't intervened today, she and Jiang Yan would surely have been injured.
"No, really, you don't have to. If you really feel bad about it, my birthday is in a few days. You can give me a birthday present then," Jun Li Chen said with a smile.
"Okay! It's a deal! Xuechang, you have to treat us on your birthday!" Jiang Yan readily agreed.
"When is your birthday?" Ye Wan asked.
"September twenty-eighth."
"..."
Ye Wan was a little surprised. Jun Li Chen's birthday was the same day as her brother's, and also... Gu Yunting's.
