I never expected to run into Wei Xiaoyu here so early in the morning!
Both of them were stunned for a moment, then blushed and became somewhat awkward.
Wei Xiaoyu said, "I just had nothing to do, so I came to stroll around!"
Even if she had nothing better to do, she couldn't possibly walk all the way from her home to the West District, could she? And on foot no less. Following the direction she was walking, Hongcheng Square was just a minute away, and beyond that was the entrance to Zhou Xuan's villa.
Doesn't this prove something?
Indeed, since returning, Wei Xiaoyu's longing for Zhou Xuan has become even more intense. Although she pretends to be generous in front of Fu Ying, she is actually suppressing her feelings because she knows that Zhou Xuan will not betray Fu Ying. No matter what she does, Zhou Xuan will not leave Fu Ying, so she can only endure it. This is not something she can get by being unreasonable.
Wei Xiaoyu understood this very well. Zhou Xuan was a kind and sentimental person. If she acted spoiled and acted like a spoiled princess, she would only make Zhou Xuan dislike her more. If she treated Zhou Xuan better, went along with him in every way, and thought of him in everything, then Zhou Xuan would only feel sorry for her and would only treat her better and better. Although he would not abandon Fu Ying to be with her, he would feel much better if the person he liked felt guilty. They couldn't become enemies, could they?
In fact, Wei Xiaoyu was also extremely upset. Her younger sister, Xiaoqing, had obviously seen through her feelings. Fortunately, she only liked Zhou Xuan unilaterally. The two sisters were in the same boat. If Zhou Xuan liked her too and was with her, her sister might hate her for life.
In the days since returning, Wei Xiaoyu has been restless. Although she thought she should not provoke Zhou Xuan and should let him and Fu Ying be together, the thought of the wedding date approaching made her heart feel like it was on fire. She had a sleepless night last night and got up before dawn this morning and left home. She wandered aimlessly through the streets and unknowingly walked to Zhou Xuan's residence. If she hadn't met Zhou Xuan here, she probably would have walked into Hongcheng Garden. In fact, she didn't have any intention of coming here. It was subconscious rather than her own decision.
After facing each other for a while, Zhou Xuan saw that Wei Xiaoyu's eyes were bloodshot and her face was pale. She was no longer the aloof and arrogant ice queen she used to be. Instead, she looked like a resentful woman suffering from unrequited love. Her extremely beautiful face was full of sorrow and desolation.
To be honest, Zhou Xuan felt sorry for Wei Xiaoyu, especially after she changed her personality, becoming more sentimental and sensible. She was willing to give up everything for him, which put immense pressure on Zhou Xuan and made him feel overwhelmed.
Similarly, Wei Xiaoqing had almost the same thoughts as Wei Xiaoyu. She was willing to make any sacrifice for Zhou Xuan, but Zhou Xuan was powerless to do anything about it. He was not forced to be with Fu Ying. He had a deep bond with Fu Ying, and the deeper their feelings were, the more he felt that he could not let Fu Ying down.
What saddens me right now is that Fu Ying can't return to her original timeline, and I'm not facing a Fu Ying who loves me wholeheartedly. So I'm sad, but I can't give up my love for Fu Ying because of this.
Seeing Zhou Xuan's stunned expression, Wei Xiaoyu slowly turned around and walked back without saying a word. Looking at Wei Xiaoyu's lonely figure, Zhou suddenly felt tears welling up in his eyes!
Wei Xiaoyu's mind seemed blank. She didn't see the environment in front of her or around her. Numbly, she walked towards the other side of the road. This was not a pedestrian crossing, there was no zebra crossing, and there were no traffic lights. Cars were flowing in and out of the way.
Zhou Xuan was stunned for a moment, then saw the car on the far side brake sharply, then swerve around Wei Xiaoyu and move forward, and he could hear a curse coming from the car window.
He only paused for a moment before breaking out in a cold sweat. He rushed forward without thinking, shouting, "Xiaoyu, watch out!"
At that moment, Wei Xiaoyu couldn't hear his shouts at all. Her mind was a complete blank, and she couldn't remember anything or sense any danger from the outside world. Only one thought echoed in her heart: "Get away from Zhou Xuan immediately!"
If she didn't leave Zhou Xuan, Wei Xiaoyu felt she would be unable to hold him and cry, and might even beg him not to abandon her.
Although Zhou Xuan possessed extraordinary abilities, he lacked the ability to fly, and his running speed was barely better than that of an ordinary person. However, with his explosive power, Zhou Xuan was still faster than usual. Since Wei Xiaoyu wasn't far from him, he quickly caught up with her in a dozen strides. Seeing a car speeding towards him, followed by a stream of cars, he reached out and grabbed Wei Xiaoyu, then yanked her back and forcefully shoved her onto the sidewalk, pushing her towards safety. But just then, with a loud "bang," Zhou Xuan himself was hit by the car and sent flying.
Wei Xiaoyu, sitting on the ground, clearly witnessed the entire sequence of events from the moment Zhou Xuan was hit, as he flew through the air and then landed.
With a loud thud, Zhou Xuan fell to the ground, blood gushing from his mouth and nose, staining a large area red. He lay motionless on the ground.
Wei Xiaoyu saw everything clearly, but her mind hadn't quite processed it yet. When she saw that Zhou Xuan, though unable to move, was still staring at her with his eyes, and that she was sitting safely on the side of the road, the tension in his eyes eased, and he closed them.
In that instant, Wei Xiaoyu realized what had happened. It felt as if a sharp knife had pierced her heart; the excruciating pain made her convulse. She rushed over and helped Zhou Xuan to her feet, moving her to the sidewalk. Her voice trembled, almost breaking with tears, as she cried out, "Zhou Xuan, Zhou Xuan, wake up! Don't scare me!"
Zhou Xuan could no longer open his eyes, and blood continued to flow from his mouth and nose.
The car that hit Zhou Xuan stopped, and the driver quickly got out to check on his injuries. But it was clear to anyone with eyes that he was half-dead from the impact; it would be strange if he hadn't died after such a violent collision.
Pedestrians surrounded the area. Wei Xiaoyu was terrified. She had seen many injured people and many dead people, and she had never paid attention to them. But the person she was holding was the one she loved most. No matter what, she couldn't accept or believe it. She just kept calling for Zhou Xuan to wake up, completely oblivious to everything else.
One of the onlookers spoke up, "Miss, you can't shake him any faster! People who are seriously injured should be kept still. Call 120 for emergency medical assistance immediately!"
Wei Xiaoyu immediately realized what was happening, reached into her pocket, but realized she hadn't brought her phone. She quickly reached out to the passerby and said, "Sir, could I borrow your phone for a moment?"
Without saying a word, the man immediately took out his phone and handed it to her. Normally, he would never refuse to borrow a beautiful woman like her, let alone now that such a big thing had happened. He couldn't help with anything else, but he was absolutely fine with this little thing.
Wei Xiaoyu first dialed 120 (emergency services), briefly explained the location and the facts of the car accident, and then quickly called Wei Haihong, saying, "Uncle, come quickly! Zhou Xuan was in a car accident about 100 meters east of Hongcheng Square."
Wei Haihong was clearly startled and asked anxiously, "What? A car accident? How are you?"
Wei Xiaoyu immediately softened in front of her uncle, bursting into tears as she sobbed, "I don't know... Xiao Ni... Zhou Xuan is covered in blood, I don't know if he... is still alive."
Upon hearing Wei Xiaoyu's words, Wei Haihong immediately realized the seriousness of the situation and quickly said, "Xiaoyu, you stay where you are and watch him. Don't move. I'll be right there!"
Wei Haihong was in bed at that moment. When his wife heard that Zhou Xuan had been in a car accident, she was so frightened that she sat up and asked a question, but Wei Haihong didn't hear her.
Wei Haihong quickly dressed and put on his shoes before leaving the room. His wife, Xue Hua, opened her mouth, but ultimately didn't call him. Wei Haihong clearly lacked self-control; he wasn't wearing socks on his shoes, and two buttons on his clothes were askew, making him look rather incongruous.
Wei Haihong glanced at his watch; it was just before seven o'clock. He usually wouldn't get up at such an early hour unless there was something special to do. However, the old man was an early riser and was sitting in the living room reading the morning newspaper. Wang Sao had also gotten up and was busy making breakfast in the kitchen.
When the old man saw Wei Haihong come downstairs so early, he was a little surprised. He put the newspaper aside and asked, "Third son, what's the rush?"
Wei Haihong immediately said, "Dad, please make a call right away and ask the leaders and medical staff from the General Political Department to come over. Zhou Xuan was in a car accident, and I heard it's very serious!"
The old man was startled, then abruptly stood up and asked, "What?"
Wei Haihong nodded and walked out, saying as he went, "Dad, Xiaoyu is a hundred meters east of Hongcheng Square. She's with Zhou Xuan, right? She's the one who notified me. It's very serious. You should call a doctor to come there. I'll go there first."
The old man waved his hand and said in a deep voice, "I'll go with you!" He then took Wei Haihong's phone and made a call.
Outside the door, Achang had also gotten up early and was practicing his boxing in the green courtyard. When he saw Wei Haihong and the old man come out, he quickly stopped practicing and respectfully said, "Old leader, Brother Hong!"
Wei Haihong waved his hand and said urgently, "Achang, hurry up and drive the car out. We need to get to Hongcheng Square. Zhou Xuan was in a car accident!"
Upon seeing the expressions on their faces, A-Chang knew the situation was serious. He usually had a good relationship with Zhou Xuan, so he quickly ran over to the garage to get his car.
Because the old man was with them, A-Chang was driving a black Audi. As soon as he stopped at the villa gate, before he could even get out to open the door for the old man, Wei Haihong pulled open the door. The old man climbed into the car, and then A-Chang got in, slammed the door shut, and said, "A-Chang, drive faster!"
By this time, Wei Haihong no longer needed to urge Achang. Achang concentrated on driving and went very fast, but he did not reach the limit of his driving. After all, there was still the old man in the car. The old man was so old that he could not withstand the bumps.
However, Achang didn't know that the old man and the old man Li often used their supernatural abilities to stimulate Zhou Xuan's physical functions and change his physique. Although they were both very old, their actual physical strength was only between sixty and seventy years old. For them, this was considered young, and their bodies could still move around freely.
Zhou Xuan's use of his special abilities to directly treat and regulate them was far more effective than the molecules in the longevity water of Poxin Village. In the longevity village, the elderly people were able to live to be over a hundred years old due to the stimulation of the energy molecules of the Nine Star Pearl. The energy obtained from the longevity well water of Poxin Village was far greater than that obtained by the old man and the old man Li who directly received the stimulation of their physical functions from Zhou Xuan's special abilities.
Of course, there is a limit to human function. No matter how you stimulate or transform it, you cannot exceed that limit. In other words, whether it is the longevity well water in Poxin Village or Zhou Xuan's superpower, it can only allow the elderly to live to be over a hundred years old, not to live to an unimaginable age.
