Chapter 1068 - Stopping His Car (2/2)
Going from Hong Kong, he needed to transfer planes. Xiao Yi met Xia Mo when he was changing planes.
Xia Mo was surprised to see Xiao Yi. “Uncle Xiao, you’re going to T City too?”
Xiao Yi nodded.
“Me too. I’m going to XX Mountain for an interview. There was a school built there and the facilities there are no worse than those in the city, and it’s donated by a good-hearted person! I think that person must be really kind. I must interview him and make him the cover of our next issue.”
Xiao Yi’s mouth twitched.
Did the word ‘kind’ belong to someone like him?
…
After Junyuan was able to get out of bed and walk, he returned home to recuperate.
He had become silent and although he would not lose his temper in front of his sisters, Xia Yanran would see him standing on the balcony smoking.
Xia Yanran contacted Nan Zhi and asked Nan Zhi to help her contact Bai Ye, but Bai Ye was in a place that Nan Zhi did not even know so she could not contact him for the time being.
Towards her brother, Xia Yanran felt an immense guilt. If she could, she would trade her life for her brother’s health.
This morning, after breakfast, Junyuan received a call. Xia Yanran saw him go back to his room and pack his luggage. Her heart tightened and she hurried over. “Brother, where are you going?”
Junyuan glanced at Xia Yanran and said gently, “Grandma Niu is sick. She lives in the mountains and the medical conditions there are limited. The elderly can’t stand it so I want to go and see her.”
Grandma Niu’s grandson was Junyuan’s cla.s.smate in the medical university. After their interns.h.i.+p, Junyuan and Grandma’s Niu’s grandson were sent to the medical team in the battlefield to help them. Grandma Niu’s grandson died there while saving a child and after Junyuan came back, he would visit Grandma Niu once or twice a year.
“Brother, I’ll go with you.”
Xia Yanran went back to her room to pack her luggage. She and Junyuan planned to take a taxi and when they were downstairs, they met with Wen Qian, who had come to look for Xia Yanran.
In order to rea.s.sure Junyuan, Xia Yanran had promised Wen Qian and tried to develop their relations.h.i.+p.
Wen Qian was also a graduate of the medical university and Junyuan was several years older than him. Even after graduating for many years, he was a leader often mentioned by teachers.
Wen Qian happened to be on vacation and when he learned that Junyuan and Xia Yanran were going to the mountains, he offered to go with them.
Wen Qian drove and halfway through, Xia Yanran wanted to change over with him, but he did not allow her to.
After six to seven hours of driving, they arrived at T City in the afternoon.
The road from the city to the foot of the mountain gradually became b.u.mpy. There were mountains on both sides of the road. The environment was quiet and there were few cars on the road, bringing a surreal and desolate silence and beauty to it.
Xia Yanran was somewhat drowsy.
Suddenly, the car wobbled, drove a little distance forward and was followed by a noise under the hood. In a moment, the car stalled.
Wen Qian tried turning the engine, but it did not start.
Xia Yanran’s sleepiness dissipated. After Wen Qian got out of the car, Xia Yanran and Junyuan also got out.
Although Wen Qian and Junyuan knew how to save people, they did not know much about repairing cars. After checking the engine and starting it again, it still did not start.
Xia Yanran did not know either.
They were a long way from the city and even if they called for car repair, they would not be able to rush over immediately.
What were they going to do?
If the sky turned dark, it would be difficult to get into the mountains. Just when they were anxious, Xia Yanran saw an SUV coming towards them.
“Brother, Doctor Wen, there’s a car coming.” Xia Yanran saw that the person was driving an SUV and generally, people who drove that kind of car knew more or less about tinkering with it. Maybe they could help them check what was wrong. Holding a glimmer of hope, she stood by the roadside and waved to stop the car.
