Chapter 591: Are You Still Protecting Her

Bo Yanching was not reassured by her, “Wait for me at home.”

“Okay.”

Nan Jiaojiao responded.

Bo Yanching quickly walked back, took off his coat during the few steps, wrapped it around Qianqian, and picked her up.

Without notifying Zhou Zining, she didn’t dare to stop him.

Bo Yanching strode forward, carrying Qianqian to the back seat.

Zhou Zining wanted to follow, but the car door was slammed shut in front of her.

She stared reluctantly as the car really didn’t wait for her and drove straight away.

Having no choice, she immediately had her servants prepare another car.

Nan Jiaojiao stood in place, and even though she couldn’t see it anymore, Qianqian’s frozen face still floated before her eyes, rooted in her mind and unforgettable.

Her body stiffened, and her hands and feet felt cold.

Suddenly, she remembered a mission years ago, where an infant was tied with a rope in an abandoned warehouse, hanging midair.

The baby girl had multicolored marks on her face and body, her clothes soaked through, with several large containers on the ground filled with paint.

When Nan Jiaojiao rescued the child, she reached out to check for breathing and found none, which terrified her completely.

It was her fault.

It was all her fault.

“Jiaojiao.”

A voice suddenly fell by her ear.

Then, she was grabbed by the hand, and Nan Jiaojiao instinctively stepped back.

When her scattered eyes cleared and she saw it was Old Lady Bo in front of her, her eyelashes trembled heavily as she gently called out, “Grandma.”

Old Lady Bo clenched her hand tightly, “Come, go with grandma to the hospital to see, your acupuncture saved my leg, it can save Qianqian too!”

As the car approached, Old Lady Bo pulled Nan Jiaojiao into it without any explanation.

She originally wanted to persuade Nan Jiaojiao to wait at home, not wanting her to follow to the hospital and face difficulties from Zhou Zining, but seeing the child standing there dazed, seemingly terrified, she changed her mind.

Her beloved Xiao San finally had a girl she cherished deeply, and she couldn’t let the unscrupulous people of the Bo Family ruin it.

The hospital.

Qianqian was rushed into the emergency room.

Luckily, Xu Shu was not scheduled for any surgeries, and when Bo Yanching called, he had made all the necessary preparations.

Bo Yanching stood at the entrance of the operating room, dressed in only a black dress shirt, his vest button undone, and his shirt smeared with splotchy water stains.

He stood with one hand on his hip and the other hand’s index and middle fingers touching, a movement of habitually holding a cigarette.

This was a rare reaction when he was nervous.

Zhou Zining sat on a bench, unable to sit up straight, attended by two servants, tears covering her face that had been dried by the wind, leaving two trails on her cheeks.

Upon closer inspection, she had no more tears to shed.

Footsteps echoed in the hallway, Zhou Zining looked up and her emotions suddenly surged, “Nan Jiaojiao, you dare to come!”

She raised her hand to strike, but Nan Jiaojiao didn’t retreat and raised her hand to block, yet someone was faster than her and stopped Zhou Zining’s hand.

“Try touching her once and see.”

Zhou Zining shuddered all over and incredulously looked at Bo Yanching, her brows furrowed then relaxed, “Third brother, you’re still protecting her?”

Bo Yanching’s expression was icy, “Yes.”

“She threw Qianqian into the water from the third floor.

Falling from the third floor, even hitting the water can cause injuries, not to mention she’s just a child.

Third brother, didn’t you see Qianqian’s face, frozen like that…”

Zhou Zining cried until she choked up, “Qianqian is so small, how long must she have been in the water to freeze like that!”
