Dressed as a Man, I Became Tycoon's Sweetheart novel Chapter 128

Chapter 128: Chapter 128 Chen Xin Rupture

“Quick, put out the fire! Put out the fire!”

“That boy ran in there!”

“It’s over, it’s over, the fire is so big, now both of them are likely in great danger…”

Thick, choking smoke obscured all vision, but Gu Chen heard Ning Xiner’s faint cries for help. He lay on the ground, dragging her out a little at a time by the car door, “Sister, Sister I’m here, don’t be afraid, I’ve come to save you.”

“Sister, hang on!”

Scorching sparks kept falling onto the back of his hand, burning his skin and leaving long, bright red gashes in his flesh from the car window glass as he protected her with his arms.

...

Half-conscious, Ning Xiner could only hear an infinitely gentle and clear call of “sister.”

A few minutes later, the rescue team hurried over, and people saw a young man walking out of the billowing smoke, carrying an unscathed woman step by step.

“Quick, save her!”

“I’m okay, save my sister first.”

Gu Chen handed Ning Xiner to the firefighters, his hands already stained with blood from his wounds, yet his face bore an incredibly fortunate and happy smile.

“What do you mean you’re okay, you must have been burned silly, get in the car!”

Once her condition had improved, Ning Xiner remembered Gu Chen and picked up her phone to call him. She used to ignore him, but he would always find a way to appear in front of her and bother her. This time, however, no matter how many calls she made or how many WeChat messages she sent, Gu Chen didn’t respond anymore. 𝑓𝘳𝘦𝑒𝑤𝑒𝘣𝘯ℴ𝘷𝘦𝓁.𝑐𝑜𝑚

She was still just a child at heart, Ning Xiner recalled. Before the accident, Gu Chen had asked her to go on vacation to Hawaii, and she must have upset him by not responding. Once out of the hospital, it would be fine if she coaxed him a bit.

During the police investigation of the accident, Ning Xiner and some eyewitnesses were called in to give statements. After her statement was taken, an auntie grabbed Ning Xiner, gossiping, “Girl, why hasn’t the young man who saved you come?”

Ning Xiner was puzzled, “Young man?”

“Yes, a very handsome and affectionate young man. Seeing you had been hit, he rushed into the fire without a thought for himself. We all tried to stop him, telling him it could ignite at any moment, but he didn’t listen at all. He carried you out of the flames, covered in blood. Oh, is he your brother or your lover? The one who drove the Pagani Supercar…”

Before the auntie could finish, Ning Xiner’s eyes were already blurred with tears. The tremulous calls of “sister” she had forgotten in the recesses of her memory began to resurface, little by little.

The first person she saw when she woke up was Xu Tanfeng, so she naturally assumed he was the one who had saved her, never imagining it was him.
