Chapter 102: Thank Goodness You’re Fine
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Gu Wencheng only paused for a second before striding over to Meng Nianyao. Are you hurt?”
Meng Nianyao shook her head.
The surrounding people were in a mess. There were shouts from doctors and nurses, as well as rescue workers. There were also cries for help and wails from the injured and their families. Under such circumstances, Gu Wencheng didn’t want to lose his composure, but when he saw Meng Nianyao standing in front of him unharmed, he clenched his fists and finally couldn’t help but step forward and pull Meng Nianyao into his arms.
“Thank goodness that you’re fine.” Gu Wencheng’s voice was choked with sobs.
Meng Nianyao hugged him back and gently patted his back. She could feel his body trembling and knew that she had really made him worry.
“I’m sorry for making you worry.”
At this moment, Ping Yang’s phone rang. It was from Grandpa Gu and Grandma Gu. Gu Wencheng remembered that they weren’t aware of the situation yet, so he took the phone. “Hello, Grandma?”
“Wencheng, have you found Nianyao?” Grandma Gu’s anxious voice came through the phone.
Meng Nianyao glanced at Gu Wencheng.
“Nianyao? Are you alright?” Grandma Gu’s voice grew louder, filled with joy and urgency. Why didn’t you answer Grandma’s call? Do you know that you nearly scared Grandma to death?”
Meng Nianyao pursed her lips and instinctively wanted to apologize. However, when she thought of what Grandma Gu had said to her, she swallowed the words that were about to come out of her mouth. “Grandma, I’m fine. It happened too suddenly. 1 was in a hurry to get out of the car, so 1 left my phone inside.”
“Are you really okay now?” Grandma Gu was shocked by the news report on the television. She didn’t believe Meng Nianyao at all. “Stay there and don’t move. Wait for Grandma. I will be there soon.”
“Grandma, I’m really fine. You don’t have to come over. When I’m done here, I’ll go back to the hospital to see if you’re okay—” Unfortunately, Grandma Gu hung up before Meng Nianyao could finish her sentence. Meng Nianyao looked at the black screen and took a deep breath. She felt warm inside. It felt good to be remembered.
“What did Grandma say? Did she tell you to wait for her?” Gu Wencheng said.
Meng Nianyao nodded. “It’s too much for her. Things here should be over soon.”
“Are you sure?” Gu Wencheng’s gaze fell on the little girl Meng Nianyao was holding.
The girl Meng Nianyao had picked up was very obedient. She was only four years old but was already very sensible. She was brought out by the nanny to play. At this moment, the nanny had been sent to the hospital, and her parents were on a business trip, so they could not be contacted. The police and nurses were very busy, too. Meng Nianyao was the one who’d discovered her, so she stuck to her and didn’t leave.
It was almost four o’clock in the afternoon now. After experiencing such a dangerous car accident, the little girl was sleepy and afraid. She held Meng Nianyao’s hand with one hand and rubbed her eyes with the other. “Auntie…”
“Yes,” Meng Nianyao replied. She squatted down and held the little girl’s hand that was rubbing her eyes. “What’s wrong?” she asked gently. Are you sleepy?”
The little girl nodded. Meng Nianyao looked at her and picked her up, letting her lean into her arms while gently patting the back of her hand. Meng Nianyao came over to find that she had left her phone in the car, so she brought the little girl over. Now, not only did she get her phone, but she also bumped into Gu Wencheng.
The little girl lay in Meng Nianyao’s arms and soon fell asleep. Meng Nianyao was too thin and it was difficult to hold her for a while. Gu Wencheng reached out his hands. “Let me do it.”
Gu Wencheng always gave people the impression that he was noble and aloof. His identity also determined the distance between him and ordinary people. At this moment, he was wearing a silver-gray suit and holding a little girl in his arms, somehow looking a little fiery. Other people who were also watching this scene suddenly thought that Gu Wencheng would be a good father in the future.
The police hadn’t contacted the girl’s parents yet. Meng Nianyao went to ask, but the police said they needed to wait a little longer as it was very cold outside. Gu Wencheng placed the little girl in the car, lit a cigarette, and leaned against the car door.
Ambulances came and went, and there were fewer and fewer people around. The sky was obviously darkening by now, and it began to snow again. Meng Nianyao didn’t want to delay Gu Wencheng’s time and was about to ask him to leave when Grandma Gu arrived at the scene..
