Wen Ran was stunned.
Fu Chenlie’s harsh scolding made her feel like a third party who had hurt his beloved,
the feeling was particularly uncomfortable, so uncomfortable that it made her want to cry.
Xu Tong glanced at her and then said to Fu Chenlie, "Mr. Fu, I’m fine, don’t bla Mrs. Fu, don’t let be the reason you harm your relationship as husband and wife."
"The car was driven by her, if not her, who should we bla?"
"I just have a scrape on my leg, it’s bleeding quite a bit, but it’s not serious."
Wen Ran snapped out of her heartache and stared at Xu Tong, "Ms. Xu, I’m really sorry. I made a mistake just now, I didn’t hit the brakes properly and instead hit the accelerator, so the car lunged forward... If you think your injury isn’t serious, you might go ho and rest, and have it checked at the hospital tomorrow morning, I’ll cover all the examination and treatnt costs."
As she spoke, she took out her mobile phone, "What’s Ms. Xu’s number? I’ll call you, and you can save my number, if there’s any issue with your leg later, you can contact ."
Xu Tong looked at her dazedly, didn’t speak, but instead turned her gaze toward Fu Chenlie.
He glanced at Wen Ran impatiently, "Go back to the car."
Wen Ran didn’t move, reminding him, "I injured Ms. Xu, I need to take responsibility."
The man threw her a harsh phrase unapologetically, "She’s not your responsibility."
Wen Ran felt his impatient and disgusted gaze, her heart felt stung by sothing, and she instinctively took a step back, her eyes drooping like a deflated ball.
Fu Chenlie didn’t care about her.
His attention was all on Xu Tong, holding her arm, "I’ll take you ho."
"No need, Mr. Fu, I can walk on my own." As she spoke, she dodged his arm and stubbornly took a step forward.
Thump—
"Ah—" Xu Tong fell to the ground again, the originally bleeding wound suffered secondary damage, and she scread in pain.
Even Wen Ran, mired in sadness and loss, felt her legs tremble involuntarily upon hearing that scream.
Fu Chenlie’s face darkened, he helped her up from the ground, "Alright, I’ll take you upstairs."
"It’s all because I’m too clumsy, Mr. Fu, I’m sorry for taking up your ti."
"Let’s go."
He supported Xu Tong, walking towards the street leading to the town.
Wen Ran watched their departing figures, suddenly feeling very helpless.
She didn’t even know whether she should leave or stay.
After their figures vanished from her sight, she squatted down at the street corner.
There were people strolling or heading ho by the roadside, it looked quite lively, but Wen Ran felt like the most redundant one there, squatting on the bustling street corner, ignored by all.
She felt very helpless, and very miserable.
For so reason, for a mont, self-pity made her tears fall uncontrollably.
Wen Ran was sowhat baffled, it was clear that she was the one who hit soone, clearly Xu Tong was the one bleeding and suffering, but why did she feel so wronged?
She hadn’t been injured or bled, her body was perfectly unhard and pain-free.
But the more she thought about it, the clearer the images of Fu Chenlie blaming her out of concern for Xu Tong beca, and the more fiercely her tears flowed.
Wen Ran didn’t dare to cry too wildly.
She was afraid the passersby would look at her oddly, and also feared that Fu Chenlie would co down and scold her upon seeing her crying.
After the most unbearable wave of emotions had passed with the tears, she wiped her tears with her hand, looked up at the night sky, and forced a slight smile on her lips, making herself think about sothing pleasant.
Not knowing how long she had squatted by the roadside, a cool, thin voice reached her ears, "Why are you squatting on the ground?"
