Chapter 1375: You’re Really Afraid of Me

Although Zhou Pingan has jumped down, Lu Ning was still worried. She struggled to break free from Yin Zhihan’s hand. “Let go, I need to help!”

“Can you swim?” He asked concisely.

Lu Ning froze. She couldn’t swim, and she had forgotten that she couldn’t swim!

She might bring more trouble if she jumped down…

At this moment, Zhou Pingan broke out of the water with Yin Linger in his arms.

Everyone gathered around the ppl. “Look, Yin Linger has been rescued!”

Linger’s parents rushed over. When they saw Yin Linger, who was drenched and in a coma, her mother’s legs went weak and she almost fell. “Linger!”

Her father managed to hold her mother in time before she could collapse. He looked calmly at the Zhou family’s housekeeper and gave two clear orders. The first was to get the order at the scene maintained, the second was to immediately send Linger to the hospital.

Zhou Pingan’s parents were there too. His mother’s face was pale as she exclaimed, “Oh my god, Why did Linger fall into the water?”

“It’s okay, she will be fine.” Zhou Dayuan patted her shoulder lightly and then walked forward. “Pingan, can you handle this?”

The maid brought a thick and soft blanket. Zhou Pingan gently placed Linger on it and started doing CPR for her.

Soon, the water was driven out from Yin Linger’s lungs.

“Linger, are you okay?” Zhou Pingan patted her back nervously.

She couldn’t open her eyes. She was so cold that her whole body was trembling. She spat out the water and fainted in Zhou Pingan’s arms.

Zhou Pingan carried her without any hesitation to send her to the hospital.

Lu Ning’s mind was in a mess. When she saw Zhou Pingan got into the car, she relaxed and was going to collapse onto the ground.

However, someone held her. A deep voice resounded above her head. “Are you alright?”

Lu Ning looked up, and it was Yin Zhihan. His cold gaze was on her face and he seemed very calm. She shook her head listlessly as if she has forgotten that she was afraid of him.

“Ah Ning.” Her parents walked over. “Ah Ning, what happened? Linger fell into the water? How about you? Are you okay?”

“Yes, I’m fine.” Lu Ning looked at her mother very sadly.

Yin Zhihan withdrew his hand without batting an eyelid. Her mother held her into her arms. His father turned to Yin Zhihan with a brief smile and Yin Zhihan nodded back politely.

…

In the hospital.

Yin Linger was lying on the hospital bed. She was safe now but she was still not awake.

“Uncle, auntie, you should go back first. Linger is fine and will wake up soon. I’ll stay with her tonight,” Zhou Pingan said.

Yin Linger’s mother looked worried. “Pingan, you should go back and rest. I’ll stay with her. Linger will definitely look for me when she wakes up.”

“Let him stay here tonight. We’ll take over from him tomorrow morning. Who knows who Linger will want to see when she wakes up?” Yin Linger’s father said and hugged his mother’s shoulder.

Zhou Pingan looked at him, “Uncle, I’m sorry.”

Yin Muchen had seen through all of this. He curled his lips and said in a deep voice, “Pingan, don’t be sorry. You’ve done well. When Linger wakes up, talk to her properly.”

“Okay.” Zhou Pingan nodded.

The couple left. In the corridor, Lu Ning sat on a bench. When she saw the two of them, she stood up and greeted them.

“Ah Ning, why are you still here? Linger is fine now. You should go back and rest.” Yin Shuiling looked at Lu Ning warmly.

Lu Ning shook her head. “I want to stay here and wait for Linger to wake up.”

Yin Shuiling didn’t insist. She sighed and muttered to herself, “Why did Linger fall into the water? Nonono, when she recovers, I must let send her to swimming class.”

How did Yin Linger fall into the water?

Yin Shuiling didn’t know, but Lu Ning did.

She bumped into Zhou Pingan, and Yin Linger saw it and misunderstood. It was all her fault.

Yin Muchen looked at Lu Ning’s pale and guilty face and said kindly, “Ah Ning, don’t think too much. You are Linger’s best friend since you girls were still kids. Everything will be fine.”

“Okay!” Lu Ning nodded vigorously.

…

After the Yin couple left, Lu Ning stood at the door of the ward. She looked inside through the small glass window on the door. Under the dim yellow light, Zhou Pingan sat by the bed. He held Yin Linger’s cold little hands in his hands and kissed them.

He seemed so worried as if he was the one who was ill.

Lu Ning sat back on the bench. It was already late at night, and there was no one in the corridor. Even the lights had become sparse and dim. She bent her legs and hugged herself.

How did things turn out like this?

Yin Linger, who grown up together with her, was always a lively and playful girl. But now she was lying on the ward bed. She was so guilty that she was willing to suffer on her behalf if she could.

It was all her fault.

If she had not bumped into Zhou Pingan’s arms, Linger would not have misunderstood. She should not have liked Zhou Pingan, and should not have fallen for Zhou Pingan.

I’m sorry…

I’m really sorry…

Lu Ning buried her pale little face into her knees, letting the guilt whipping her heart.

At this moment, she heard a series of steady footsteps. Someone was coming. “Have a cup of hot water.”

Lu Ning looked up and saw that it was Yin Zhihan.

He took off his black suit and tied it around his arm. He handed her a cup of hot water with his right hand while keeping his left hand in his pocket.

Her eyes were still blank, without her usual aura. She did not take the cup. Yin Zhihan raised his eyebrows. “The weather is a little cold. Drinking some hot water will make you feel better.”

“Oh!” Lu Ning reached out and took the cup of hot water.

Lu Ning only felt cold after he reminded her. She had been sitting in the corridor for too long, and her hands and feet were almost numb. After drinking a few mouthfuls of hot water, she felt that her body was starting to warm up.

She was very grateful that Yin Zhihan could pass her a cup of hot water at such a sad moment, and he seemed to have protected her at the party today.

“Thank you,” Lu Ning thanked him.

“Mmm,” Yin Zhihan snorted. “Thank me for what?”

Lu Ning didn’t say anything. She knew that he asked this on purpose.

He was so smart, how could he not understand what she was thanking him for?

“You’re really afraid of me.” Yin Zhihan lifted his thin lips and said a few words.

Lu Ning felt uncomfortable. She reached out and tucked a strand of hair behind her ear. She pretended to be calm and said, “No, I am not…”
