Pampered by the School Bully-Chapter 52 - 51, are you afraid that I will die?
Chapter 52: 51, are you afraid that I will die?
Bystanders gradually gathered nearby, surrounding the scene of the accident in concentric circles.
Pu Sangzhi hastened to the scene, and as she drew closer, she heard the unceasing chatter of the surrounding people.
"It’s a young person... Maybe they were riding too fast?"
"Looks like the impact was bad... they’ve fainted..."
"You’d think the driver would pay more attention, tsk tsk... poor thing..."
The more voices she heard, the more frantic and fearful Sangzhi became.
She quickly made her way to the crowd, stood on tiptoe, and struggled to glimpse through the throng: a shared bicycle with its wheel bent out of shape, a flattened bag of buns, and a pair of long legs clad in black jeans...
It was him... Huo Feng.
"Huo Feng!"
Sangzhi cried out, her hands forcefully parting the crowd, as she stumbled forward...
"Huo Feng!"
In the center of the crowd, the sight before her made Sangzhi scream in fear.
She rushed forward, crouched next to Huo Feng, and carefully shook him, "Huo Feng, Huo Feng what’s wrong with you? Huo Feng, wake up..."
At that moment, Huo Feng lay in a coma, sprawled on the ground, covered with dust and mud, one leg trapped under the wheel of the bicycle, presenting a terrifying sight!
Sangzhi was in utter panic, overwhelmed with fear.
Completely distraught and with a hoarse, frantic voice, she cried, "Huo Feng wake up, Huo Feng, don’t scare me, wake up..."
"Has anyone called 120? Has anyone called an ambulance? Help call an ambulance!"
Sangzhi looked around, and just then, the driver responsible for the accident, after finishing a call on his phone, said, "I’ve called, they’ll come soon."
"How long will it take? Are we just going to wait? He’s not coming to!"
Sangzhi was frantic but at a loss, just a student, facing such a situation for the first time, truly in a panic.
"Huo Feng... Huo Feng wake up..."
Sangzhi threw herself on him, slapping his face and pinching the philtrum desperately, "Huo Feng wake up, don’t scare me... wake up..."
Fortunately, her frenzied efforts gradually brought Huo Feng back to consciousness.
He knitted his eyebrows slightly, his eyelashes fluttered, and, after a moment, he slowly opened his eyes.
"Huo Feng... Huo Feng you’re awake... you scared me to death..."
Sangzhi’s suspended heart finally dropped by half, and in that instant, a surge of warmth rushed up, making her nose tingle and eyes redden.
She almost thought he was going to die.
If something really happened to Huo Feng, she would be inescapably responsible and would feel guilty for a lifetime!
"Ah... hiss—"
Huo Feng moved his head slightly, and suddenly, a sharp pain shot through the back of his skull, causing him to gasp sharply.
"Huo Feng... wait, don’t move. Just wait..."
Sangzhi quickly got up and moved the shared bicycle off his leg.
Then she crouched down by Huo Feng again, leaned over, and cautiously helped him sit up.
The surrounding bystanders watched in silence, no one stepping forward to help, and the driver responsible, seeing Huo Feng awake, remained calmly observant.
At this moment, all eyes were focused on Huo Feng.
Gradually regaining his senses, Huo Feng began to realize he had been in an accident, and became increasingly aware that, at that moment, Sangzhi’s hands were holding his back.
How weak Huo Feng was... could be seen by how he behaved at this moment.
"Ah..."
He feigned a pained moan and pressed his body against Sangzhi, half of his face burying in her shoulder.
"What’s wrong? Does it hurt a lot somewhere?"
Sangzhi was instantly startled by his sagging weight, panic-stricken, she propped up his body with hers, holding him tightly in her arms to keep him from falling.
"Hiss... It hurts..."
Huo Feng took a deep breath of her uniquely fragrant scent and suddenly his body heated up, with his veins throbbing intensely.
"Where is the ambulance? He’s bleeding from his head! Don’t you realize how critical this is!"
Pu Sangzhi yelled to the people around, unable to contain her impatience.
She was genuinely panicked, genuinely afraid...
When she helped Huo Feng up just now, she immediately noticed the injury on the back of his head. Her clothes had brushed against it, smearing a shocking stain of scarlet blood.
Huo Feng, who was usually so carefree, was now beginning to cry out in pain.
So, he must have been severely hurt.
Pu Sangzhi was frantic!
She looked around feverishly and swiftly set her sights on a black Volkswagen parked five meters away.
At that moment, upon seeing the car, Pu Sangzhi became infuriated, "Whose car is that! Didn’t you look at the intersection? Are you driving recklessly? Where’s the owner!"
"Am I not here? Did I not make a call! What more do you want from me?"
The driver at fault retorted with anger, immediately countering, "It’s all my fault, huh? He’s the one who ran into the road without looking!"
"So it’s you!"
Pu Sangzhi’s anger flared as she glared fiercely, "You hit someone and you still have the nerve to be so self-righteous. You have a car, why not drive him to the hospital? What are you waiting for? Waiting for the ambulance or for the insurance company?"
The offender was provoked by Pu Sangzhi’s words into a rage, "I called the insurance company, what’s it to you! It’s normal to call them after an accident! What else do you want? I’ll tell you, the responsibility for this accident is fifty-fifty!"
"Are you taking him to the hospital or not!"
Pu Sangzhi pointed at him, "I want you to drive him to the hospital! Right now!"
The driver provocatively replied, "Wow, you give orders now! How old do you think you are!"
Pu Sangzhi argued firmly, "Can’t you see he’s injured? You have a car and still won’t take him!"
In the meantime, Huo Feng, nestling in Pu Sangzhi’s arms, could hear her passionately defending him sentence by sentence, and warmth flooded his heart. Touched, he couldn’t help but curl his lips into a secret smile.
Of course, Pu Sangzhi was unaware of this.
The offending driver saw it all too clearly.
"Injured my ass! He’s there snickering! Are you two trying to scam me?" the driver accused, pointing at Huo Feng and cursing.
Pu Sangzhi looked down at Huo Feng...
"My head hurts..."
The Huo Feng in her arms still furrowed his eyebrows in pain, his lips pale as if in unbearable agony.
Seeing him in such distress, Pu Sangzhi felt all the more panicked and rushed. She desperately appealed to the passersby, "Please help me record this man’s behavior. He hit someone and won’t take them to the hospital, just worrying about himself, waiting for the insurance. And acting all righteous about it, it’s just too much!"
With Pu Sangzhi’s prompting, indeed, several cell phones were raised in the crowd, taking shots at the offending driver.
Only then did the driver start to panic...
Latter on, compelled by public pressure, he had no choice but to begrudgingly lift Huo Feng into his car.
Inside the vehicle, Pu Sangzhi and Huo Feng sat in the back seat.
Huo Feng still leaned weakly against Pu Sangzhi’s shoulder, doing his utmost to inhale her pleasant scent.
At the moment, Pu Sangzhi was solely focused on the wound on his head. She held the back of his head firmly with tissue papers, looking at the blood-soaked piece turned thoroughly red, her mind in utter chaos.
"Huo Feng, hang in there... Please, don’t let anything happen to you..." she cradled his head, cooing with evident concern.
These words were truly heartwarming.
Huo Feng spoke softly, "Sangzhi, are you afraid I’ll die..."
Pu Sangzhi’s eyes reddened with anxiety, her emotions in turmoil, "What are you saying... Of course, I am afraid."
A faint smile played on Huo Feng’s lips, his voice softer and slower, "You see... You still won’t admit that you like me..."
His words sent Pu Sangzhi’s already troubled mind into further disarray.
With an even softer voice, Huo Feng said, "Let’s be together... Okay?"
