~Save Qiao Xin~

Xiao Long dived as he was trying to catch the figure that was now sinking further into the bottom of the lake. He did not want the unfortunate occurrence during his childhood to repeat itself, seeing his older sister die horribly from drowning. After he got the hold of the figure's body, he quickly brought the figure over to the riverbank. He seemed surprised when he saw who the figure he was helping was. Yes, she is Qiao Xin. The rotten trash he hated so much. He looked at her body; it was full of bruises and wounds. The corners of her lips were bleeding. Her nose was bleeding, and the back of her head was bleeding too. He was certain that the wounds on her body weren't caused by jumping into the river; someone inflicted them upon her. Xiao Long felt strange, he felt sorry for this figure in front of him.

"Rotten trash, are you all right?" he asked, trying to wake her up. He can barely feel her pulse. She was not even breathing. He panicked, then he immediately pumped her chest to push the water inside her lungs out. But she remained still. He took a deep breath, then immediately gave her rescue breath, until her respiratory cycle came back to normal. He looked at the bridge then waved his hand at the driver. He had to take her to the hospital immediately because the wounds on her body were probably the reason why she lost consciousness. Both of his hands trembled violently, Her predicament seemed to drag him into that terrible past. He immediately held his head as an extremely terrifying memory flashed before him. When he and his older sister were playing in the river, his older sister was dragged away by the rushing water of the river. He tried to rescue his sister, but little Xiao Long could not do much. Alas, he could only see his older sister dragged away helplessly and was found dead.

"Help! Someone here needs help!" he shouted in fear.

Moments later, the driver arrived with an ambulance, she was taken by a paramedic into the ambulance, he closely followed her into the ambulance.

He kept staring at her. Somehow he started to feel guilty about it.

Was it because he had the boss of the W Corporation fire her, that she suffered the injury inflicted by her parents? So she felt useless, then decided to commit suicide? He lowered his head again. He held his stupefied head.

After arriving in the hospital, she was treated immediately and taken to the emergency room. He took care of all the paperwork. Then he decided to wait a moment.

"Sir, where is the patient's family?" asked one of the nurses who was there. He couldn't answer because he didn't know where and who her family was. But he remembered that Qiao Xin worked at W Corporation. The boss of that company must have known about Qiao Xin's family.

"Wait a moment, I will contact her best friend," He replied. He immediately called Jia Ming without thinking.

"Hello, Mr. Han. Can I help you? Was there anything wrong in the contract that Mr. Han had to call me at night?" asked Jia Ming. Xiao Long knew why Jia Ming asked such questions, even though the two of them had only met once, and Xiao Long contacted Jia Ming this late.

"It's not a matter of a contract, Mr. Zhou. It's just that I want to ask you, do you know Miss Liu's family?" asked Xiao Long. For a moment, the voice on the other side sounded quiet, making Xiao Long somewhat panicked. "Hello, Mr. Zhou. Are you still there?" he asked again.

"Oh, excuse me, Mr. Han. Why did Mr. Han ask about Miss Liu's family?" asked Jia Ming again. Xiao Long seemed annoyed that Jia Ming asked so many questions. But that is to be expected, it was indeed unusual for him to ask Qiao Xin's former boss about the rotten trash family.

"Answer it, I'm just asking," replied Xiao Long.

"Miss Liu's family is not living in this town, Mr. Han. She came here alone to be the breadwinner of the family. Her father died three years ago, her mother is suffering from a severe illness and has to spend a lot on medical expenses. Her younger sister is still a student. She lives in this city together with her lover. But-- "

"Can you tell me where their address is?" Xiao Long interrupted Jia Ming's answer.

"They live in an apartment close to building Y. You can just come over there, and I'll send you the address. Tell the officer over there if you are my friend. Then you can enter Miss Liu's apartment."

Without saying thanks, Xiao Long immediately ended the call. Then he looked at the nurse who was still standing beside him.

"Give me some time. I'll bring Miss Liu's family here."

"Very well, sir, we will wait for you," replied the nurse.

Xiao Long immediately ran. Even now, he was still wearing a wet tuxedo suit. Until the driver checks on him and gives him new clothes.

"Young Master Han, get changed first. Young Master Han may catch a cold later."

Xiao Long immediately took the clothes. Then he asked the driver to immediately go to the address that Jia Ming sent him.

"Drive to the address I sent to you, hurry. We don't have much time now," Xiao Long ordered the driver.

"Yes, Young Master Han!"

After Xiao Long changed his clothes, he immediately got into the car, speeding through the streets that seemed very busy. He is now silent, looking anxiously at the windshield of his car. He set aside his resentment for Qiao Xin and prioritized Qiao Xin's life that was currently in danger. Xiao Long didn't want to selfishly ignore her; Deep inside, he was a human who had to help other humans.
