As Gong Lingqian looked at An Xingchen's reddened eyes, his expression darkened even more. He extended his hand and pulled An Xingchen closer to her, his gaze carefully examining her. After confirming that An Xingchen, other than the wounds on her face, did not receive any other injuries, Gong Lingqian's gloomy expression finally eased a little.
When Lu Yaozong, who had just arrived at the scene, saw his wife lying down on the hillside with her daughter An Qingruo in her arms and tears in her eyes, his heart immediately thumped loudly. With an ugly expression, he rushed to the foot of the hill and asked, ”Qingwan, Yuan Yuan, what happened to you two? Did he fall? Are you hurt? ”
Ruan Qingwan hugged An Qingruo who was trembling in pain tightly. Her gloomy eyes were as sharp as knives as she glared at An Xingchen, and suppressed her anger at Lu Yaozong: ”Hubby! I personally saw An Xingchen push us Yuan Yuan down! ”
When the few people who had rushed over heard this, their gazes immediately fell on An Xingchen's body.
An Xingchen felt everyone's gaze and subconsciously bit her lips, and looked at Gong Lingqian who was beside her with a helpless look on her face: ”Ling Qian … I didn't. I didn't push her down … ”
An Xingchen knew clearly in her heart that she was only struggling to break free from An Qingruo's hand that was pulling her back. She simply didn't use any strength to push An Qingruo away, and she didn't even manage to react to how An Qingruo suddenly fell down …
Hearing An Xingchen's words, Gong Lingqian felt as if he was giving An Xingchen more power. The hand holding An Xingchen tightened a bit, and nodded at An Xingchen: ”I believe you didn't push her.”
Ruan Qingwan, who was supported by Lu Yaozong and a few others, upon hearing An Xingchen not admitting to his words, felt that An Xingchen was just trying to make excuses. His face became even uglier, and he started shouting angrily at An Xingchen: ”An Xingchen! You're lying now! I saw you push Yuan Yuan down just now! What else do you have to say? ”
When Ruan Qingwan walked over earlier, An Qingruo was standing with her back facing Ruan Qingwan, so Ruan Qingwan could only see An Xingchen constantly pulling on An Qingruo's hands, and then, Ruan Qingwan saw An Qingruo fall down the hill!
In Ruan Qingwan's eyes, it was obvious that An Xingchen had pushed her down the cliff.
An Xingchen stared blankly at the agitated Ruan Qingwan, ”But … I really didn't push her … ”
Seeing that An Xingchen was still not willing to admit it, Ruan Qingwan pounced on her angrily and tried to argue with her. Lu Shijia, who was at the side, saw that the situation was not right, and immediately grabbed onto Ruan Qingwan's hand: ”Mom, it's not important how Yuan Yuan fell. The most important thing is to first send Yuan Yuan down the mountain to check if she was hurt anywhere!”
Hearing Lu Shijia's words, Ruan Qingwan's mind cleared up because of his anger, and he nodded continuously, not paying any more attention to An Xingchen. He anxiously grabbed onto An Qingruo's hand and said: ”Right, right, right, quickly send Yuan Yuan down the mountain to check her body!”
After what happened, the few of them were no longer in the mood to camp and watch the sunrise. After all, An Qingruo's injuries were unknown, so they all followed her down the mountain.
They were at the top of the mountain and there was still some distance to go to the hotel at the foot of the mountain. Furthermore, An Qingruo was in so much pain that she couldn't move even a muscle.
Gong Lingqian followed closely behind, holding onto An Xingchen's hand tightly.
