60: Chapter 60: Taking someone to the hospital and paying for their medical expenses; facing pressure to get married during a demolition of her hometown.

Shen Muyan lifted the hem of her skirt; the ankle was already somewhat red and swollen.

"Quick, take her to the hospital!" the girl said without a moment's hesitation.

"Ah... should we call 120?" someone asked.

Shen Muyan scanned the area and looked at Jiang Jinyue: "Jinyue, go and get Luochuan!"

"Okay!" Jiang Jinyue didn't delay either; there was no deep-seated hatred between the girls.

She and Shen Muyan were certainly not the type to kick someone when they were down.

In the small utility room, Tang Luochuan was chatting happily with two buddies.

The door to the utility room was shoved open, and Jiang Jinyue burst in: "Luochuan, Su Wantang is injured. You need to take her to the hospital right away!"

"Can't you just call 120?"

"Stop talking nonsense, let's go!"

"Uh... but I can't expose myself!"

"You go downstairs and wait, then drive the car back..."

"Oh, oh, oh~~" Tang Luochuan was pushed out of the utility room by Jiang Jinyue.

His Tank 700 was right downstairs.

Before long, a few girls came downstairs, supporting Su Wantang.

The girl's right foot was slightly swollen, and tears still clung to her face as she glanced at him.

Tang Luochuan was still wearing a mask. He puffed out his chest and said: "Hello, who called the Didi ride-hailing service..."

Upon hearing this, Jiang Jinyue was so angry that she lifted her skirt and kicked him in the calf, though not very hard: "Still pretending at a time like this? There's no one else here, we're all keeping it a secret for you."

This remark made the other girls laugh, and Su Wantang looked at him with a pitiful expression.

His words actually made her feel a little less upset at that moment.

"Open the car door!" Su Wantang sat in the back, and two of her close friends got into the car directly.

Tang Luochuan didn't hesitate either and sat in the driver's seat: "Jinyue, are you coming too?"

"You guys go ahead, I still have to collect my award later..."

"Oh, give me a break!"

Tang Luochuan rolled his eyes and stepped on the gas, speeding away.

The air in the car was very quiet.

"Thank you~" Su Wantang spoke first. She didn't know why she wanted to say something to him.

Tang Luochuan, being oblivious, asked directly: "Do you still need to call your brother Mingxuan? You're injured, he should be very concerned about you, right?"

"Uh... no need!"

"Hey, just give him a call!" one of her friends suddenly said, then immediately covered her mouth: "Uh... never mind, don't call."

She meant well, thinking that Su Wantang liked Gao Mingxuan, so calling him now and having him come over was the right thing to do.

To see what his attitude would be.

But remembering the unpleasantness between Gao Mingxuan and Tang Luochuan earlier, she swallowed her words.

"It's fine, I'm not that petty! I'm not even holding it against him for hitting me, it's fine..."

A smile hung on the corner of Tang Luochuan's mouth; it would be best if that bastard brought that bald bodyguard with him.

"I'll find a place and take care of him directly!" His eyes held a hint of malice; how could he possibly swallow this insult?

But what he wanted wasn't for the other party to back down, but to be absolutely terrified!

"Classmate Tang, you're really magnanimous!" one of the female friends said in a low voice.

Tang Luochuan waved his hand: "This is nothing."

"Didn't I hear that you were hospitalized?"

"Oh, I suffered mental trauma, but there's nothing wrong with my body! I'm mainly seeing a psychiatrist."

"Mm-hmm, I understand..."

The two female companions were completely taken in by his nonsense, but Su Wantang was conflicted inside.

Should she call or not?

It was just Jiang Jinyue's side of the story, but it didn't seem entirely groundless.

Su Wantang bit her lip and finally locked her phone.

"Let's not call for now," she said in a very soft voice, but with a hint of resolve, "We'll see after the test results come out."

Tang Luochuan glanced at the rearview mirror and didn't say anything more.

The car soon arrived at the hospital, and the two girls took Su Wantang to the emergency room.

Tang Luochuan took her ID card and went to the side to help pay a 2,000 yuan deposit.

Su Wantang was admitted to the hospital smoothly, and after the doctor examined her, there weren't any major issues.

After taking a few X-rays and completing the examination, she just needed to rest for some time.

In the hospital room, Tang Luochuan took her ID card and walked to the bedside: "I'll leave this here for you. I'm leaving now."

He didn't linger at all; he was just doing what was socially polite.

"Hey, how much was it? I'll pay you back!"

"Uh..." Tang Luochuan thought about it and waved his hand: "Eh! Forget it! Forget it! It wasn't much..."

His tone was somewhat indifferent.

Without saying much else, Tang Luochuan offered a simple, polite remark: "Get some good rest..."

"Thank you!" Su Wantang gazed at him. A thought suddenly sprouted in her heart: could he stay and take care of her?

But while she was thinking about it, the boy had already left.

In the hospital, Su Wantang spent the night accompanied by her two classmates.

...

The next day was another Saturday.

Tang Luochuan had come to school, though he hadn't attended many classes in total.

Early in the morning, he was woken up by Jiang Jinyue to go for a morning run.

"Not going! I'm still injured." Tang Luochuan rolled over, wanting to wrap his arms around Shen Muyan, who was nearby.

But he grabbed only empty air.

When he opened his eyes again, Shen Muyan was already getting dressed: "Luochuan, you can't be this lazy! Isn't it nice to go for a run with us?"

"Don't want to go..." Tang Luochuan reached out and hooked the pants she was halfway into.

Shen Muyan pulled them up and turned to slap his wandering hand.

But as soon as the pants were on, Tang Luochuan sat up immediately...

"Shark leggings! You should've said so earlier! I'm going! I'm going!"

"Good grief!" Jiang Jinyue rolled her eyes.

These clothes were bought online by the two sisters together. Since they were living together, they also arranged to exercise together in private.

Tang Luochuan quickly got dressed and checked his bank balance: over 1.3 billion!

Jiang Jinyue had also changed her clothes; her lower abdomen was taut and strong, with faint abdominal muscles.

The three of them went downstairs and had only been running for a short while.

"How was Su Wantang last night?" Jiang Jinyue asked out of the blue.

Tang Luochuan replied casually: "Nothing much. The doctor said it wasn't a big problem."

Neither of them took it to heart. Suddenly, Tang Luochuan's phone rang; it was a call from his mother.

Tang Luochuan told the two of them to keep running, while he found a bench in a corner of the park to sit down and answer the phone: "Mom!"

"Luochuan," Zhu Xiumei's voice was very excited, "I have some good news to tell you."

"What is it?"

"Our hometown is going to be demolished. I'm planning to move our household registration back."

"Over at Grandma and Grandpa's place?"

Tang Luochuan's grandparents were still in their hometown, and his father's household registration was there too.

Back then, to let him go to school, his and his mother's household registration had been in the neighboring town.

That area was developing quite well, and the schools were better.

"Yes! News came from Tang Family Village, it's happening in these next few days! It came so suddenly. When you come back this time, your Aunt Li said she wanted to introduce a partner to you... that..."

"Wait a minute! Mom, wasn't this about the demolition? How did you get to finding a partner in just two sentences? I'm only 18! I'm still a child."

"What child!" Zhu Xiumei retorted: "Let me tell you, quite a few people know about our demolition and are coming over to play matchmaker! I didn't dare to tell anyone about the money you gave me last time; if that got out, there would definitely be even more... Come back on October 1st! I'll have your Aunt Li take you to meet someone..."

"Oh, Mom, I'm already seeing someone!"

"You're seeing someone?" Zhu Xiumei was silent for a moment after hearing this, then added: "That doesn't stop you from doing what the family wants, just go take a look first!"

Tang Luochuan didn't reply and looked toward the two girls not far away, who were no longer running but doing morning exercises.

Shen Muyan gave a sweet smile, while Jiang Jinyue's face remained in 'debt collector' mode, looking like someone owed her money.

The boy let out a long sigh: "We'll talk about it later, don't be in such a rush!"
