Chapter 205 - You May Feel Confused About Something Right Now But Once You Realize The Truth, You Might Even Want To Kill Yourself (1/2)
When Xian Zihao saw her calmly walking over, his expression froze. His dark eyes gradually filled with guilt and helplessness.
”Ruolan?” He frowned.
”I used to work in a small clinic near the university for more than a year. Occasionally, there would be girls who would cut their wrists and commit suicide due to various setbacks. It's pretty easy for me to stop the bleeding and bandage them.” Jiang Ruolan remained calm, there's no slightest hint of pain in her eyes.
On the contrary, she smiled magnanimously and naturally stood by her husband and the Xian Family. With her status as Xian Zihao's wife, she decided to help Zhou Shufen.
She didn't know if every member of the Xian Family knew about Xian Zihao's past relationship with Zhou Shufen, but right now, she didn't have time to care about those various gazes on her.
When Xian Zihao's burning gaze was fixed on her, she lowered her eyes, avoiding his gaze, and watched Zhou Shufen's slightly pale face.
”Miss Zhou, if you believe me, let's go upstairs. I will try to help you stop the bleeding.”
Zhou Shufen glanced at her without fear. However, when she saw the peaceful smile in Jiang Ruolan's eyes, she was slightly surprised. However, in a split-second, she asked, ”Can Miss Jiang really stop this bleeding?”
”This is not an ordinary minor injury. Arterial hemorrhage is nothing compared to the others. Miss Jiang, stop boasting!” Senior Zhou suddenly said coldly.
Jiang Ruolan turned around and looked at the rebuke in Senior Zhou's eyes. She smiled and said, ”What if I promised you that if I could not stop the bleeding, and if something really happened to her, you can use my life to compensate her.”
With that, Jiang Ruolan immediately grabbed Zhou Shufen's arm. She saw Senior Zhou staring at her face from a distance, and at the same time, she looked up at Xian Zihao, who was still holding onto Zhou Shufen's wrist. His eyes were on her.
”Leave her to me.” Facing Xian Zihao's cold and serious black eyes, she smiled.
He slowly let go of Zhou Shufen's hand. Jiang Ruolan used a little of her strength to help Zhou Shufen got up, and at that moment, her arm was suddenly gripped tightly by the familiar and warm palm.
Jiang Ruolan lowered her head and her gaze following the thick, warm hand and then met with Xian Zihao's eyes, which seemed to contain thousands of emotions.
”Ruolan.” He called out to her in a faint voice. Seeing her calm face, he said nothing more but simply said softly, ”Thank you for your help.”
Jiang Ruolan smiled faintly and pulled her arm out of his grasp without leaving a trace. After a moment, she stopped smiling and turned around, supporting Zhou Shufen as they walked towards the stairs.
Zhou Shufen walked all the way up the stairs with Jiang Ruolan supporting her. She looked at the stairs from time to time as well at Jiang Ruolan's expressionless face.
When they reached the second floor, Jiang Ruolan brought her into the guest room shown by the Xian Family servant.
As they inside the room, Zhou Shufen opened her mouth and said, ”Miss Jiang, your thoughts are really deep. Even I am surprised by your calmness.”
Jiang Ruolan helped her to sit down, her gaze sweeping over her pale face. But the promise in her bright eyes was still as obvious as ever. She didn't say anything. She knew that if she didn't stop the bleeding now, the consequences would be even greater.
Jiang Ruolan's hand quickly took the clean towel provided by the Xian Family servants and covered the wound on Zhou Shufen's wrist. After wiping off her blood, she quickly disinfected the wound before more blood gushed out, then replaced it with a clean sterile.
Since Old Man Xian likes to live in such a remote place, which was quite far from medical facilities, the Xian Family provided an emergency medical kit in each room.
Jiang Ruolan took out a bandage and a triangular towel and bandaged it tightly on the wound to stop the bleeding. Then she wrapped it three times above her arm, tied it into a half knot, put a short stick on it, and then tied it into a double knot.
