731: Chapter 731: A Life-Risking Rescue 731: Chapter 731: A Life-Risking Rescue Seeing Li Ningxueâs gesture, the girl confirmed her fears, but she had already transformed that flicker of emotion into admiration.
Instead of feeling disappointed, she sincerely wished Li Ningxue well, saying, âYouâre truly blessed, Ms.
Li.â Li Ningxue smiled slightly, not refuting the girlâs words, while Ye Fei chuckled, âNo, itâs me whoâs blessed.
We have some matters to attend to, so weâll see you later.â With that, he and Li Ningxue walked out together.
Just as Ye Fei and Li Ningxue left, a petite figure emerged from the side of the hallâit was Xiaoying.
Seeing her friend standing there in a daze, she couldnât help but ask, âWhatâs wrong?â The girl, still overwhelmed with excitement from Ye Fei saying goodbye to her, exclaimed, âI talked to Ye Fei!
He even gave me his autograph!â She proudly waved the piece of paper in her hand before carefully tucking it away.
Xiaoyingâs expression changed, and she quickly asked, âHe came down?
Where is he?â She felt a pang of regret.
She had waited so long just to thank Ye Fei, but by stepping away to the restroom, she had missed him.
The girl pointed outside, âHe just left.
Youâre not alsoâŠâ Before she could finish, Xiaoying was already sprinting out the door.
By then, Ye Fei and Li Ningxue had reached the entrance of the underground parking lot.
Ye Fei asked Li Ningxue to wait there while he went to get the car.
But before he could take more than a few steps, he sensed a faint aura of hostility.
Expanding his awareness, Ye Feiâs lips curled into a cold smile.
He hadnât expected Li Jian to have the guts for something like this.
From the murderous look in his eyes, it seemed he was planning a vehicular attack.
Sure enough, as Ye Fei had anticipated, Li Jian started his car and, with a roar, sped toward Ye Fei.
At the same time, a delicate figure approached Ye Fei.
He didnât move, as he was looking for an excuse to deal with this scoundrel.
As for the girl, whom he recognized as the receptionist from earlier, he wasnât concernedâLi Jianâs target was him, and she was several meters away, out of harmâs reach.
But to Ye Feiâs surprise, Xiaoying, who had also noticed the danger, suddenly ran toward him.
Just as the car was about to hit him, she pushed him aside with all her strength.
A loud crash followed, and her frail body was sent flying.
For a moment, Ye Fei was stunned.
He couldnât understand why this girl, whom he had only met once, would risk her life to save him.
This momentary hesitation was why Li Jianâs car had managed to hit her at allâotherwise, no matter how fast the car was, it wouldnât have been able to harm them.
Knowing this wasnât the time for reflection, Ye Fei didnât even bother with Li Jian, who was now speeding away in reverse.
Instead, he rushed to the girlâs side, only to find her on the brink of death.
He quickly knelt, cradling her in his arms, and shoved a few recovery pills into her mouth.
But she had already lost the ability to swallow.
In desperation, Ye Fei placed a few pills in his mouth, then gently parted her lips and transferred them to her.
Only after ensuring the dissolved pills had entered her system did Ye Fei feel a sense of relief.
Though her sacrifice seemed meaningless, he was deeply moved.
Once her condition stabilized slightly, he carefully picked her up and began walking toward his car.
Before he could take more than a few steps, Li Ningxue, who had heard the commotion and come to investigate, caught up to them.
Li Ningxue was an easily contented woman.
Though she saw Ye Fei holding another girl, she felt no jealousy, especially when she noticed the girl was covered in blood.
Concerned, she asked, âWhat happened to her?â âLi Jian tried to run me over with his car, and she blocked it,â Ye Fei explained.
This time, even the kind-hearted Li Ningxue couldnât let it slide.
She said bitterly, âYe Fei, you must make him pay for this!â âOf course.
I wouldnât let him off even if you didnât say so,â Ye Fei replied, a cruel smile playing on his lips.
He no longer planned to kill Li Jianâdeath would be too easy for someone like him.
Ye Fei wanted to strip him of everything, leaving him to live like a dog.
Seeing Ye Fei place Xiaoying in the back seat of the car instead of taking her to the hospital, Li Ningxue couldnât help but say, âIs she okay?
Shouldnât we take her to the hospital?â âNo need.
She shouldnât be moved right now, and the recovery pills will have her healed soon,â Ye Fei explained, detailing the effects of the pills and even how he had obtained them.
Li Ningxue wasnât surprised at all.
Instead, she felt a surge of tenderness, proud of her manâs extraordinary abilities.
Sure enough, after a short while, Xiaoying slowly opened her eyes.
Seeing Ye Fei and Li Ningxue, her face paled as she asked a rather absurd question, âAre weâŠ
dead?â âNo, weâre not dead, and neither are you,â Ye Fei said gently, without a hint of amusement.
âThank you for what you did back there.â Hearing Ye Feiâs words, Xiaoying finally felt the pain in her body, her delicate brows furrowing slightly.
She said shyly, âI just wanted to thank you.â âThank me for what?â Ye Fei asked, puzzled.
He had been wondering why this girl would risk her life to save him.
Xiaoying didnât take credit for helping Ye Fei.
Instead, she said with deep gratitude, âThank you for helping my mom that time.â Ye Feiâs heart stirred.
Though he had changed the atmosphere of Wanghai, he had personally intervened in very few casesâalmost none.
He quickly recalled something and asked, âAre you the daughter of the woman who was in that car accident?â He was a bit confused, though, as the girl looked to be in her early twenties, while the woman he had helped was in her sixties.
The age gap seemed too large.
âYes, thatâs me.
Thank you,â the girl said again, then introduced herself, âIâm Han Xiaoying.â Han Xiaoying?
Ye Fei was momentarily thrown off.
Wasnât that the name of the gentlest heroine from The Legend of the Condor Heroes?
Were her parents fans of martial arts novels?
Of course, he didnât voice this thought.
Instead, he smiled and said, âIâm Ye Fei, and this is Li Ningxue.
Iâm sure you already know that.
Youâre almost fully recovered now.
Once I help you expel the stagnant blood from your body, youâll be completely healed.â After getting her consent, Ye Fei took her small hand and sent a surge of internal energy into her body.
His expression shifted slightly.
