Although the unconscious person had lost consciousness, when she tasted the sweetness, she subconsciously began to suck and swallow.
On such a hot day, she was already parched.
After feeding her water, Han Wenjuan placed the person on the ground to lie down, then patiently waited for rescue.
But in such a short while, she was already sweating profusely from the heat.
She looked up at the sky. The scorching sun was hiding behind the lush leaves, and sunlight trickled through the gaps, casting dappled patterns on the ground.
The asphalt road in the distance was covered in sunlight, making the entire ground seem to warp.
Han Wenjuan gasped for air, feeling suffocated by the muggy heat, about to faint. Casually, her eyes fell upon a cardboard box by a trash can not far away.
She immediately rushed forward, disregarding the dirt, and tore off a piece of suitable size to use as a fan.
A cool breeze brushed against her face, and she felt as if she had come back to life.
After recovering slightly, she looked at the person lying on the ground and murmured at her unconscious state, "Don't you die, or my efforts will be in vain."
With that, she went forward and began to fan Madam Ling.
"Why so slow, this is so annoying."
Time flowed by, and Han Wenjuan gradually lost her patience.
Amidst anxious waiting, the sound of a wailing siren approached from afar.
Han Wenjuan's face lit up with surprise, and she quickly looked into the distance. The previously unhurried fanning motion instantly quickened.
Soon, a police car sped over and braked with a screech, stopping in front of her.
"Hurry and save her, quick, she's not doing well..." Han Wenjuan immediately shouted.
Following her cries, several people alighted from the police car.
Besides those in uniform, there was also...
Han Wenjuan's shouting voice suddenly got stuck in her throat.
Who had she seen?
She would never forget that face.
It was the person who had brought her endless fear.
And the newcomer was none other than Ling Yucheng.
Ling Yucheng, with a grim expression, rushed towards the two people not far away.
Even without getting close, he recognized from the blurred profile that the person on the ground was his grandmother.
Han Wenjuan's face also clearly appeared in his eyes, including her demeanor and actions.
As he approached, he caught a pungent, foul odor, and his brows furrowed tightly, his gaze growing even colder.
Han Wenjuan was terrified of him, even though she had done nothing wrong at this moment.
"Mr. Ling... President Ling... you..."
"Thank you!"
Ling Yucheng wasted no time. He directly scooped up the person on the ground and quickly walked towards the police car.
The immediate priority was to get the person to the hospital as soon as possible.
He would remember this kindness.
Han Wenjuan watched him walk away, and the oppressive aura that had enveloped her instantly vanished.
For no reason, she felt a sense of relief and let out a heavy sigh.
Soon, the police approached her to gather information.
...
The police car sped along, navigating the bustling roads unimpeded.
Inside the car, Ling Yucheng tightly held the person in his arms and called out softly, "Grandma, it's Yucheng. You must hold on!"
The person in his arms showed no reaction.
Despite the summer heat, she was ice-cold.
Ling Yucheng's hands trembled, his face grew increasingly grim, and his eyes even showed panic. Even the most composed person would panic when a loved one's life was in danger.
"Grandma, Grandma, please hold on!" Ling Yucheng's voice was choked with emotion, his eyes bloodshot.
A foul odor permeated the car, and the driver grit his teeth to endure the nausea.
The police officer in the passenger seat looked pale, but when he glanced at the back seat, his mind was filled with no other thoughts.
The man in the back seat had sharp eyebrows and handsome features, and even sitting down, one could tell he had a tall and slender physique.
He was holding a dirty old woman in his arms, and the stench emanated from her.
Her crotch was visibly soiled, and yellow stains had seeped onto the legs of her black suit pants.
"Grandma, Grandma..."
Ling Yucheng called out tirelessly, again and again. Even though the person in his arms showed no response, he did not give up.
He gritted his teeth, his eyes filled with deep helplessness and panic.
His mind constantly replayed the past.
He was practically raised by his grandmother. His parents were very busy when he was young, leaving home at sunrise and returning at sunset.
His grandparents gave him the most companionship, so they were truly very important to him.
Ling Yucheng called out while hugging her tightly, trying to warm the person in his arms with his own body heat, but it was all in vain.
Fortunately, fortunately, he could still feel the breath of the person in his arms.
The police car entered the nearest hospital.
As soon as the car stopped, Ling Yucheng immediately rushed into the hospital's emergency room with the person.
A nurse pushed over a gurney and took the person into the emergency room.
Ling Yucheng stood alone outside the door. People came and went around him, but his eyes were fixed only on the closed door.
Now it was up to the doctors.
He walked silently to the waiting area and sat down, paying no mind to his own dirtiness or the curious glances of others, simply waiting.
After staring blankly for a long, long time, he finally took out his phone to notify others.
...
Ling Junye was on his way.
At the Ling family residence.
Everyone was still in the living room, waiting for news.
"Ding dong," a message notification tone sounded from Gong Zhi Jing's phone.
Everyone's gaze fell upon her.
Gong Zhi Jing, ignoring everything else, casually picked up her phone to check it. A look of surprise flashed across her face at the first glance.
"Found! Grandma has been found!"
The message was from Ling Yucheng, saying: Grandma has been found and is now at the hospital.
Elder Ling's dispirited expression changed, and his dull eyes immediately shone with radiance.
Zhu Yunfei looked at Gong Zhi Jing with even more anticipation.
Gong Zhi Jing said, "Yucheng said Grandma has been found and is now at the hospital."
This news made the two of them tense again.
Elder Ling anxiously asked, "How is your grandmother? Is she okay? Is she hurt? She's always been so afraid of pain."
Gong Zhi Jing quickly tried to soothe his emotions.
"Grandpa, don't worry. We still need to ask for more details. Grandma will definitely be alright."
Elder Ling said impatiently, "Then ask quickly!"
Gong Zhi Jing nodded and immediately lowered her head to text Ling Yucheng for more information.
Ling Yucheng replied truthfully: "The situation is unclear. She's in the emergency room now.
There are no obvious external injuries, possibly just heatstroke."
Gong Zhi Jing looked at the suffocating words, her gaze lingering on the three characters "emergency room" several times.
For young people, heatstroke might not be a big deal, but Grandma was almost eighty, and a fall could be fatal.
Seeing her strange expression, Elder Ling and Zhu Yunfei immediately became anxious. Had something really happened?
Elder Ling asked urgently, "What happened to your grandmother? Is something wrong? Has she suffered!"
His breathing became noticeably rapid, his eyes filled with anxiety and heartache.
"No, Yucheng said Grandma wasn't injured, possibly just heatstroke, and she's at the hospital now."
