The ex-wife is rebellious, which makes the CEO feel troubled

Chapter 291 I owe him another time

When Gu Huaijing brought Ning Xi to the shore, the heavy rain did not stop.

He endured the pain and took Ning Xi to the car first, patted her shoulder gently, and asked with great concern: "Ning Xi, Ning Xi? How are you?"

Ning Xi's originally chaotic consciousness gradually became clearer.

When she came back to her senses, what she saw was Gu Huaijing's face full of anxiety.

Is it a dream?

But the touch of a tap on her shoulder told her that this was not a dream.

Ning Xi finally reacted: "You...why are you here?"

"I happened to be passing by." Gu Huaijing finally breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that she was conscious and clear and seemed to be fine, "It's good that you weren't hurt."

With that said, he took out a clean tissue from his bag and carefully wiped off the water droplets on Ning Xi's face.

His own arms were already stained with blood, and some of it seeped to his collar as he moved.

"...your hand!" Ning Xi quickly held his hand. She was shocked and guilty when she thought that he was injured because of her. "Your wound is too deep. Don't move for now. We need to call an ambulance."

Ning Xi's cell phone was already in the car, so she took Gu Huaijing's cell phone and quickly reported the address, waiting for medical personnel to rescue her.

But now the weather is bad, accidents happen frequently, and it will take some time for the ambulance to arrive.

She had to bandage Gu Huaijing and stop the bleeding first.

Ning Xi looked around and found that there was nothing available, so she was immediately ready to tear off her clothes.

Gu Huaijing understood what she meant and said, "I have a small first aid kit in the drawer of my car."

Ning Xi fetched a small first aid kit, which contained basically all the supplies.

She first took off Gu Huaijing's shirt, with a compassionate heart and a focused look on her face as a doctor. However, when Gu Huaijing looked at her beautiful face approaching him while in pain, his heartbeat involuntarily skipped a beat, as if the pain was not so severe anymore.

The last time he looked at Ning Xi at such a close distance, the two of them broke up on bad terms.

The wound was completely exposed. Looking at it like this, Ning Xi couldn't help but frown deeper.

The wounds punctured by the glass were large and small, and after being hit by such a heavy object, this piece was simply a mess of blood and flesh. It was unclear whether there were any broken glass in it.

But now, she can't care so much.

Ning Xi first wiped the edges clean with gauze, and then carefully disinfected the surrounding area with an iodine cotton ball.

"It might hurt a little, please bear with it."

Gu Huaijing nodded: "It's okay."

Seeing the wound, he was extremely grateful that it was on his arm and not on Ning Xi.

That way, he would never forgive himself.

Ning Xi took out some gauze and bandaged the wound using the spiral bandage method, finally stopping the bleeding temporarily.

"Wait for the ambulance to come."

"it is good."

The small carriage suddenly became so quiet that you could hear a pin drop, and the atmosphere was a little subtle for a moment.

Seeing that her whole body was soaked, Gu Huaijing took the windproof jacket with his uninjured hand and handed it to Ning Xi: "Put it on first so you don't catch a cold."

Ning Xi put on her coat, pondered for a moment, and said softly: "Why?"

Gu Huaijing was a little confused by the lackluster sentence: "What?"

Ning Xi asked: "Why did you save me?"

After all, she had just rejected Gu Huaijing sternly a few days ago, and her attitude was not good at all.

Gu Huaijing seemed to not take the incident to heart at all. He looked at Ning Xi and said seriously, "Because you are a very important person to me, I can't bear to see you get hurt."

The words were spoken fluently and sincerely, without any trace of hypocrisy.

Ning Xi slightly lowered her eyelashes.

Is she important to Gu Huaijing? Why didn't I see it before?

No matter how helpless and incomprehensible Ning Xi was to Gu Huaijing's previous entanglement, she couldn't say harsh words to Gu Huaijing when she was being saved.

There was a violent storm outside the window and the light inside the car was dim.

Ning Xi was in a trance for a moment, and an absurd thought flashed through her mind: What if what he said was true?

Soon, she erased the thought and never mentioned it again.

Be it sincere or fake, there is no going back between them.

Gu Huaijing said softly: "Ning Xi, I am telling the truth. If you don't want to hear it, I won't mention it again."

Twenty minutes later, the ambulance and the traffic police arrived together, and there were other patients with more serious injuries in the car. Ning Xi looked at them with fear. If it wasn't for Gu Huaijing's selfless rescue, she would be the one lying on the stretcher now.

On the way, Mrs. Wen called.

"Hello? Xiaoxi, is there a traffic jam on the road?"

Ning Xi didn't want to make her family worried, so she planned to go back and explain, so she said, "Something happened on the way, but I'm not injured. I might not be able to make it in time for lunch. You guys eat first, grandma."

"Okay, don't worry, we'll leave some food for you, safety first."

Mrs. Wen gave a few more instructions and Ning Xi hung up the phone.

"You said you jumped into the water?" The emergency nurse here frowned as she asked Gu Huaijing in detail about how he got injured. "Are you sure you didn't choke on the water? If you did, we'll have to take an X-ray. If you can still walk like this, the hospital won't arrange for a caregiver. You'd better find a family member to accompany you."

Ning Xi said: "I will accompany him."

After all, Gu Huaijing helped her first, so she couldn't just sit back and watch. Besides, she didn't want to owe him a favor.

Although the life-saving grace is not so easy to repay.

When they arrived at the hospital, specialist doctors quickly treated the two of them. Ning Xi was well protected by Gu Huaijing, and the doctor let her go after seeing that she was fine.

After Ning Xi completed the formalities with the traffic police, she went to the surgical clinic, where Gu Huaijing was treating wounds.

Although Ning Xi knew that the doctor had administered anesthesia, she still couldn't help but feel unbearable in her heart when she looked at the place where the flesh and blood were sticking together.

There was a lot of broken glass in the wound, and the doctor had to carefully pick it out one by one under the light.

The old doctor muttered as he moved: "If this is left in, the wound will become suppurated and inflamed in the future, and the consequences will be disastrous."

During the whole process, Gu Huaijing didn't even hum.

The doctor saw someone standing at the door and asked, "Are you his family member?"

Ning Xi was startled: "No, I..."

Gu Huaijing helped her find a step: "She is my friend."

"Oh, if you want to see it, come in, don't stand at the door."

The cleaning process was tedious and meticulous. Half an hour later, the last stitch on the wound was completed.

The doctor prescribed some anti-inflammatory drugs for Gu Huaijing and reminded him, "Remember to take the medicine on time and come to remove the stitches on time. If you feel uncomfortable, come back for a follow-up visit at any time. You have injured your tendons and bones, and if you are not careful, it will affect the function of your hand."

Gu Huaijing himself just nodded lightly, but Ning Xi's heart skipped a beat.

Affect hand function?
