Chapter 119: An Nuo Is Injured
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
After some hard work, the two of them successfully won the bear doll that An Nuo liked with too yuan worth of tries.
It was a pity that the doll was a little too big. It was a little strenuous for An Nuo to hug it with both hands. Therefore, before playing, they had to discuss finding a place to store it.
But on the way there, something happened.
“Don’t young ladies nowadays look where they’re going? They don’t even know how to apologize when they bump into children!”
Zhang Yang’s sharp female voice successfully attracted the attention of the passers-by around her, attracting the attention of many people.
Nan Qiao’s face was cold as An Nuo, who was hugging the bear doll, looked at the troublesome woman in front of them and the crying child.
“Look what you’ve done!”
The woman reached out and picked up one of the child’s arms so that the others could see the large red wounds on it.
“You knocked my child down and didn’t even apologize. My poor child…”
The woman’s eyes reddened as she spoke. Everyone around her felt sympathetic and criticized Nan Qiao and An Nuo.
“These young people are very arrogant nowadays. They don’t know the immensity of heaven and earth.”
“Look at that cold expression of theirs! Looking down on the others! They’re dressed pretty well, but they really think that they’re princesses.”
“They’re so young, but they don’t have any manners. I wonder what their parents are like…”
For a moment, there were all kinds of comments.
However, Nan Qiao took a step forward and pulled An Nuo behind her. She looked at the woman who was causing trouble with a cold face and her tone was a little dangerous.
“You’re making things up.
It’s obvious that your child has taken a fancy to my friend’s doll and is crying for it. Is it wrong for us not to give it to him?”
She explained the whole story in a few sentences.
Just now, when Nan Qiao and An Nuo were resting on the bench, the woman beside them happened to walk over with the child.
When the child saw such a big bear doll, he wouldn’t walk away. He pulled his mother’s clothes and said that he wanted it.
However, this was the result of An Nuo and Nan Qiao’s hard work. An Nuo naturally did not want to give it away, but the child cried and refused to go away. He argued that he wanted it and reached out to snatch it.
The two sides started arguing. An Nuo did not let go, so the child naturally could not snatch it. In the end, he exerted too much strength and fell to the ground, scratching his arm on the rough asphalt.
“What do you mean?”
That woman was not a kind person either. Seeing that Nan Qiao did not intend to give in, her temper rose.
“You’re already an adult. Why are you still arguing with a child?”
She squatted down and picked up the child. She frowned at Nan Qiao, feeling extremely frustrated.
“Besides, didn’t she push my child?
You clearly know that it’s a child, but you still used so much strength. You’re so young, but you’re already so vicious.”
She looked at Nan Qiao righteously and said one sentence after another to An Nuo.
An Nuo looked at the crazy woman in front of her who was still pestering her endlessly. Her good mood was completely ruined by this person.
“Sister, you don’t look like you’re over 30 so why is your child already in his teens?”
As soon as she said this, everyone looked at the woman strangely.
Nan Qiao also frowned, and her gentle eyes became sharp and threatening.
“I don’t like to argue with children,” she said in a cold voice. Her gaze was like an ice pick, piercing one’s heart. “Unfortunately, those who pester others are excluded.
Your child cried and complained that he couldn’t get the doll he wanted, so he tried to snatch it.
I thought he had no mother to teach him. He has no proper upbringing at all.”
After saying this, Nan Qiao sized up the woman again and sneered, as if mocking her.
“Furthermore, your child only has himself to blame for being injured. When did snatching someone’s things become reasonable?”
These few words made the woman’s face turn red. She immediately looked at Nan Qiao angrily.
“You—”
“Looking at you, I feel like your child’s ill behavior can’t even be compared to yours.”
These were clearly words that could anger someone to death, but when Nan Qiao said them, there was a hint of calmness.
However, after hearing their words, the people around them finally understood the truth. They looked at the two beautiful girls and then at the woman who was letting the boy cry instead of coaxing him.
It was clear what had really happened.
Everyone’s discussion turned to another topic, and they all said that the woman was in the wrong.
The child’s cries were also annoying. Nan Qiao frowned and felt that meeting such a person was really unlucky. Thus she pulled An Nuo and wanted to leave. However, how could the woman endure the gazes of the people around her? She did not want Nan Qiao and An Nuo to leave just like that. When she saw that they were about to turn around and leave, she anxiously reached out to pull them back.
As a result, An Nuo, who was behind Nan Qiao, fell down the stairs unprepared.
“Ah!!”
An Nuo fell down weightlessly. She rolled a few times down the stairs and fell to the ground.
“An Nuo!”
Nan Qiao reacted immediately and ran to her side in two steps and looked at An Nuo, whose face had instantly turned pale. Anger ignited in her heart.
“How are you? Where are you hurt?”
She worriedly asked An Nuo about her feelings while checking if she was injured.
“My foot, it hurts—”
An Nuo only felt her vision go black. When she rolled down, she was in great pain. Now that she was lying on the ground, even her breathing seemed to affect a certain wound on her body. It was so painful that she gasped.
Nan Qiao quickly pulled open her pants and checked her legs. With one look, she realized that she was injured.
An Nuo’s right calf was bruised, and the area close to her ankle had begun to swell. Just looking at it was shocking enough.
She pursed her lips and looked at the place where An Nuo had fallen. The woman was nowhere to be seen.
Nan Qiao was furious. She knew that the most important thing now was to send An Nuo to the hospital for a checkup, so she called someone to pick them up.
In less than ten minutes, the two of them arrived at the best hospital in the city.
An Nuo was in so much pain that she couldn’t even walk, so Nan Qiao could only find a wheelchair for her to sit on.
“My leg hurts so much…”
An Nuo said with a whimper.
On the way to the hospital, the pain from the other injuries on her body seemed to have lessened. However, it was the opposite for her leg. Even though An Nuo tried her best to endure it, the pain made her break out in a cold sweat.
She did take some ibuprofen, but for symptoms that were already beginning to hurt, it would obviously take a while for the ibuprofen to achieve pain relief.
“We’ll be there soon.”
Nan Qiao pushed the wheelchair and walked steadily and quickly towards the doctor’s office.
Before they arrived, Nan Qiao had already asked someone to arrange for the best orthopedic doctor here. Seeing that An Nuo was in so much pain, Nan Qiao guessed that she might have injured her bones.
Nan Qiao could only speed up as she listened to An Nuo trying her best to take deep breaths.
She couldn’t even tell An Nuo to tolerate the pain as these words couldn’t even be considered comforting.
There was an urgent knock on the door.
“Enter.”
A cold voice came from inside, as clear and sharp as jade falling on a porcelain plate.
Nan Qiao pushed her in and placed the prepared x-ray film on the table. She watched as a slender and pale hand reached out from behind the huge computer screen and took the film away..
