Chapter 1234 - 1238: Did You Get Hurt in the Fall
She gripped Xia Qingqian’s hand for no reason, suddenly tightening as she choked up and said, "That’s what I should be asking you... And also, stop calling me Miss Beitang Huan all the time, it’s really grating on the ears. Just call me Huan, okay?"Xia Qingqian nodded, staring blankly at Beitang Huan. The warm sunlight spilled over Beitang Huan’s body, making her look so gentle and radiant. That trace of warmth also settled into Xia Qingqian’s heart. In this world, she now had one more friend! She would never feel lonely again!
Besides, the way Beitang Huan looked at her was so clear and genuine, even tinged with overflowing sincerity. She believed that Beitang Huan meant every word!
"Huan..." she called out softly. It felt so good to have a friend!
"Then I’ll call you... Qian Qian... okay?" Beitang Huan smiled. So this is what it feels like to be friends instead of enemies. The feeling of making friends suddenly made her world clear and bright, whereas during that period when she treated people as enemies, her whole world had been full of scheming and darkness.
It felt really good to become friends!
If it had been someone else who fell into trouble with her, they might not have saved her first! And Xia Qingqian actually had a chance to escape, but she gave that chance to her.
For no reason, Beitang Huan tightened her grip on Xia Qingqian’s hand again, filled with treasuring and gratitude.
"Huan..." Xia Qingqian still called Beitang Huan a bit awkwardly, "I’m a little tired. I want to rest here for a bit, is that okay?"
Beitang Huan could of course tell that Xia Qingqian didn’t want to be disturbed, but the wind here was a bit strong. She said to Xia Qingqian, "I’ll help you back inside. It’s windy out here..."
"No..." Xia Qingqian wanted to stop her, but Beitang Huan had already helped her up. Xia Qingqian’s legs gave out beneath her, and she fell straight to the ground!
"Qian Qian, what’s wrong?" Beitang Huan squatted down in fright and reached out to help Xia Qingqian. "Are you okay?"
"Miss Xia!" The servant who came running from afar nervously helped support Xia Qingqian as well. "Did you hurt yourself anywhere?"
Xia Qingqian’s lower body wouldn’t move at all, so she could only let the two of them help her up. But her face was full of panic. She squeezed the servant’s hand hard and shot her a look, signaling her not to say a word.
But even if nothing was said, Beitang Huan still understood what was going on, because Xia Qingqian’s legs didn’t move at all. When they held her up, her face was stricken with fear, as if terrified of something.
"Qian Qian, what’s wrong with your legs? Did you fall like this when you slipped from the windowsill?" Beitang Huan’s breath hitched. She hadn’t expected that a windowsill barely over two meters high could make someone’s legs completely lose sensation.
Xia Qingqian’s face was ashen. The blow her legs had dealt her left her unable to speak for a moment. After a long while, she finally said softly, "Huan, let me rest a bit. Maybe I’ll be able to move later..."
"Why are you still standing there? Go get Ye Feng up here!" Beitang Huan frowned at the servant still standing by the side, scolding repeatedly. This could be serious or not, but if something happened to Xia Qingqian’s legs, she wouldn’t be able to shrug it off! Besides... Xia Qingqian fell because of her!
"Huan! Don’t!" Xia Qingqian’s beautiful eyes widened as she shook her head.
"Hurry up and go!" Beitang Huan completely ignored Xia Qingqian’s pleading and ordered the servant to go find Ye Feng immediately!
