Ning Qing’s eyes painfully contracted. The car was going at an extremely fast pace, and in the blink of an eye, it was very very close to the little girl.

It almost crashed into her.

It was a matter of a single moment.

The sound of the little girl’s soft crying came into her ear and was continuously ringing as she cried out, “Mama, where are you Mama? I want Mama”

When Ning Qing regained her senses, she realized that she was running and she was calling out loudly in English. “Hi, baby!”

The two bodyguards had a slight distance from Ning Qing. Ning Qing did not like them coming too close, so when the bodyguards realized something was wrong, their expressions had a major change as they shouted. “Madam!”

Ning Qing ran onto the main street and took the small girl into her embrace in one move. There was a strong, glaring light coming into her eyes, and it was so bright that she could not open her eyes.

She held the small girl in her embrace and said, “Baby, close your eyes. Be good. Don’t be scared..”

There was a second when Ning Qing thought the car would crash into her. She could not hide, but there was no other choice. It was human nature; she could not bear to see a small life disappear in front of her eyes.

A sharp screeching sound pierced her ears, and the car stopped.

Ning Qing opened her eyes to look. A man was standing in front of her. The man opened his arms wide and bravely thrust himself in front of the car.

The car braked to a sudden stop.

The owner of the car opened the windows, and in English, cursed, “Who are you guys? Don’t want to live anymore?”

Ning Qing saw that man walk to the window and share a few words with the car’s owner. The face of the driver calmed down, and he drove the car away.

Ning Qing withdrew her gaze, and in a moment, she crumpled onto the floor. She was heavily gasping for air. She had never known fear, but now, she was truly afraid.

Shs used her small to caress her stomach. She almost…

The little girl stopped crying and look at Ning Qing with her big, moist eyes. “Older Sister, what is wrong with you? How come you fell to the floor?”

Ning Qing touched the girl’s soft hair and said, “Older Sister is fine, and it is just that my legs went soft. You can’t ever run into the middle of the road again, okay? There are only cars on the road, and there is no Mama there.”

“Oh.” The girl nodded her head like she understood what was being said.

Suddenly, Ning Qing heard, “Are you fine?” A pair of handmade white leather shoes stopped before her.

Ning Qing lifted her eyes and before her was a handsome noble. He wore a white striped wool sweater paired together with a brown casual pants, and he gave off the impression of a warm, clean man.

Ning Qing let out a smile and said,” I am fine. Thank you for everything you just did.”

The man walked to her side and stretched out his hand to support her elbow. He donned a smile and said, “You are willing to give up two lives in exchange to save a small girl. Then why wouldn’t I give myself up in exchange for 3 lives?”

Ning Qing laughed; this man was humorous.

At this moment, the bodyguard ran over and said, “Madam!” Someone came over to help Ning Qing up.

“Don’t move! She sprained her ankle.”

After the man spoke, Ning Qing suddenly realized that her right ankle was sprained. She groaned in pain and her face was pale.

“You can’t jump when you are 7 months pregnant. Now you need to go to the long bench by the road and sit down. Let them carry you over.” The man released his grip.

One bodyguard came forward and scooped Ning Qing up.

The man held onto the little girl’s hand to walk to the side of the long bench, then picked the small girl up to help her sit beside Ning Qing. He bent down and held Ning Qing’s right foot in his palm. “You’ll have to bear a little pain for a moment. I will help you massage it for a while.”

Ning Qing did not feel much pain. The man’s movement was very gentle and experienced. Ning Qing looked at his long, fair fingers that could rival a woman’s. She asked, “Are you a doctor?”

Only doctors could possess this pair of hands.

“That’s right.”

After massaging her for a moment, the man let go of Ning Qing’s right leg and the leg hit the floor. Ning Qing moved it around for a bit, and it indeed did not hurt anymore.

At this moment, the little girl’s mother came looking for her. The little girl immediately ran into her mother’s embrace. The mother thanked both the man and Ning Qing, then left.

Ning Qing stood up and gave a sincere smile. “I am really thankful towards you tonight. If you were not here, the consequences would have been horrific. Oh right, I still do not know your name?”

“Ning Qing!” At this moment, Song Yajing ran out from the building.

“Mum.”

Song Yajing looked at the man and was surprised as she said, “Dayuan, what are you doing here? I have not seen you for such a long time. It’s such a coincidence tonight.”

“Aunt, how are you?”

“Mum, you two know one another?”

“That’s right. Ning Qing, this is Zhou Zhilei’s older brother, Zhou Dayuan. Dayuan, this is Shao Ming’s wife, Ning Qing.” Song Yajing introduced them.

Ning Qing heard the name “Zhou Zhilei” and lifted her eyebrows and then opened her mouth to say, “It turns out that this is Mr. Zhou. How are you?”

Zhou Dayuan looked at Ning Qing’s small, exquisite face. His black eyes behind his gold rimmed glasses looked amused as he said, “Miss Ning, why did you have a frown on your face after you heard that I was Zhilei’s older brother?”

He actually noticed?

She heard that doctors were all very meticulous.

Ning Qing did not have a change in her facial expression and said graciously, “I was too surprised. Mr. Zhou and Miss Zhou look so different. What’s more, Miss Zhou’s older brother is actually a doctor. I am shocked at this fact.”

“Yeah, Shaoming has such a young wife. I am also equally taken aback.”

Ning Qing curved her eyebrows in a relaxed expression. The feeling that this man gave off was very comfortable, and he had made the driver immediately calm down. His personality was probably very gentle.

Song Yajing saw that the two were chatting happily and said, “Dayuan, we are here to participate in the fashion show. Since we have met, shall we have dinner together tonight?”

“Aunt, there is no need. I still have a surgery to complete tonight. I just came to buy something and coincidentally met with Miss Ning. I need to return to the hospital. I will bid farewell now.” Zhou Dayuan turned around to leave.

Ning Qing looked at Zhou Dayuan disappear, and at this moment, Song Yajing pulled Ning Qing to take a look from head to toe. “Ning Qing, are you fine? I didn’t see you just now, and I was very shocked.”

Ning Qing gave an indication to the two bodyguards to indicate that they are not allowed to tell her.

The bodyguards were also scared of Song Yajing chiding them, and their jobs might be at risk, so they obediently looked towards the ground.

Ning Qing went forward to hold onto Song Yajing’s elbow and said, “Mum, I am fine. I just came out to take a walk, then I met Zhou Dayuan. Mum, I am hungry. Let’s go for dinner.”

“Okay.” The duo walked towards the back.

“Mum, isn’t Zhou Dayuan Old Man Zhou’s grandson? How come he did not inherit what the winery and went on to become a doctor instead?”

“Da Yuan has liked medicine from a young age. He has no interest in red wine. He has a penchant for practicing medicine, so Old Man Zhou allowed him to do so. From his youth, his relationship with his own parents and Zhou Zhilei has been distant. He was all alone in England when he completed his PhD in Medicine, and now that he is 31 years old, he is the youngest medical professor out there. Da Yuan and Shaoming have always had good relations, and they have a lot in common.”

Ning Qing listened intently, especially when she heard that he had good relations with Shaoming. The good feelings that she had for Zhou Dayuan got deeper in her heart. Birds of a feather flock together. Any friend of Shaoming’s is guaranteed to be of good character.

Like this medical professor who wore a white lab coat. Even if he removed the white coat, his entire body exuded the benevolence he used to save and rescue others. The man bore the most magnificent type of universal love.

When Zhou Dayuan blocked the car to protect both her and the little girl, his benevolent character became apparent.

She did not think that a woman like Kong Lan could actually give birth to a son like Zhou Dayuan. Zhou Dayuan and Zhou Zhilei really did not seem like siblings. They were two different people from different walks of life.

…

The next day, Ning Qing and Song Yajing flew back to T City.

After getting off the plane, they entered the lounge of the airport, and Ning Qing switched her phone on. Ding Ding! Numerous messages popped up on Ning Qing’s phone. They were all from Lu Shaoming. Ning Qing had a sweet smile on her face, and she prepared to open a message.

But at this moment, her phone began to ring. It was Lu Shaoming.

This man was definitely furious.

“Mum, it is a call from Shaoming. I also want to go use the washroom. Why don’t you wait for me in the car?”

Song Yajing nodded her head and said, “Okay.”

Ning Qing walked to the corridor and went in the direction of the washroom. She pressed the button to pick up his call. “Hello, Hubby…”

“Ning Qing, you are getting bolder and bolder. You went all the way to England and did not even discuss it with me? You are 7 months pregnant now! How come you are still running all over the place?” The man’s anxious tone was very clear.

“Hubby, don’t get angry. I wanted to discuss it with you, but I couldn’t get through to you…”

“If you couldn’t get through, couldn’t you wait a moment? Yesterday afternoon, I had specially left work early to pick you up. In the end, Dad told me that you had asked him to inform me that you had gone to England.”

Ning Qing: “…” This dad was not a good communicator.

“Okay, Hubby. Don’t scold me over the phone. I am back now. Wait until I get home. I will write a reflection letter. Is it okay if I admit to my mistakes?” Ning Qing begged him for forgiveness.

The man on the other end went silent for a few seconds and his tone was still unhappy. “Ning Qing, forget it this time. There will not be a next time. In the future, you can discuss it with me. Wherever you want to go, I will accompany you there.”

He meant that he could accompany her to England.

A smile quickly bloomed on her face. She gave a loud kiss towards the phone. “My good husband… Hubby pampers me the most.”

“Umm, stop being flippant. Where are you now? I am on the way to the airport. Give me some time. I will go to get you.”

Ning Qing’s heart felt like it had been dipped in a jar of honey. Actually, there was a car already outside the airport, but she had returned home, and her husband wanted to come personally to grab her.

This feeling felt beautiful and special.

“Okay, Hubby, I will wait for you.” The two were reluctant to end the call.

Ning Qing put her phone away. She opened the door of the washroom and stepped into it. Suddenly she was in excruciating pain. Someone had hit her hard in the back. Her eyes blacked out, and her mind entered into darkness.

Song Yajing, who was outside the airport waiting for a long while, did not see Ning Qing. She felt something was amiss and hastily walked towards the washroom.

When she walked to the corridor, there were two bodyguards standing outside of the restroom. She asked, “Where is Madam?”

The bodyguards pointed to the door of the restroom and replied politely, “Lady, Madam went into the washroom and has yet to come out.”

Song Yajing was slightly relieved. She pushed the door of the washroom open and walked in.

“Ning Qing, Ning Qing.” Song Yajing called out to her but there was no response.

She stepped on something. She looked down and saw that it was Ning Qing’s phone.

Song Yajing felt her heart tighten, and at the moment, she had a bad premonition. She wanted to call out to the bodyguards.

But suddenly, someone came from behind her. That person stretched out his hand and covered her mouth with a warm towel. Song Yajing struggled for a moment, but there was an intoxicating agent on the towel, and she had two breaths of it and closed her eyes at last.
