Chapter 199 - 194: The Male Supporting Role Isn’t Brain-Dead
"Jiaming, where are you going again?" In the middle of the night, Su Ruoxi followed her younger brother out the door. Jiaming, tall and long-legged, soon vanished from her sight. Frustrated, she stamped her foot in anger at her brother’s thoughtlessness.
But she couldn’t rest easy knowing her fourteen- or fifteen-year-old brother was wandering alone at night. All she could do was walk and quietly call out his name. The Su Family was poor and lived in a rough neighborhood. She was afraid that raising her voice might bring trouble upon herself.
As she walked, she found herself in a dark alley filled with the squeaks of stray cats and rats. Gathering her courage, she continued walking, but halfway through, she tripped over something unknown and fell right on the object that had tripped her.
When Su Ruoxi supported herself to stand up, she felt something unusual under her hand, warm and sticky.
"Uh..." Leng Junxuan moaned in pain.
Instantly terrified, Su Ruoxi ran a few steps away, then, full of doubt, she walked back and shone her mobile phone light in the direction of the sound.
"Huh?" Su Ruoxi exclaimed in confusion. Wasn’t this her benefactor? How did he end up here? And it looked like he was injured.
"Are you alright?" Su Ruoxi asked softly, but unfortunately, Leng Junxuan had already lost consciousness and couldn’t respond.
Touching Leng Junxuan’s forehead, Su Ruoxi found he was running a high fever, making her panic like an ant on a hot pan. At this point, she had completely forgotten about her underage brother who had run out of the house. Using all her strength, she hoisted Leng Junxuan onto her shoulder and began to move him with difficulty.
If Ye Qiu saw this scene, he would surely have something critical to say. As a university student from a prestigious school, didn’t the female lead know that moving a seriously injured person might exacerbate their injuries? And shouldn’t her first reaction to encountering an injured person be to call an ambulance or the police?
