Chapter 420: Chapter 393: He Woke Up..._2
Her brows furrowed, a headache began to throb, and she still felt something was not quite right.
"There’s no evidence right now, don’t go out talking about it." Tan Qing pondered for a moment and said softly. Looking at Leng Ye, his expression became heavy again: "Nuannuan, is there surveillance at the parking spot?"
Wen Nuan nodded: "There is, but it was broken for the past few days, only fixed again today. I haven’t moved the car at all,..."
Her hand began to tremble slightly: "The car was parked under the company building the past few days because my dad has been going to work, so I always ride with him."
According to the last surveillance footage, the camera was smashed by someone. Since the company’s doors and windows were not damaged, and there appeared to be no visible losses, everyone assumed it was just a drunken madness and didn’t pay much attention. She always thought the broken surveillance was just an accident, but when connecting everything together, it seemed not to be a coincidence.
"Nuannuan, because none of you have woken up, the police said they’ll come tomorrow to record statements. You need to explain everything you know in detail by then." Tan Qing glanced at his watch: "Go and rest, Ye will be taken care of here by me, I’ll call you when he wakes up."
"I’m fine; I’ll just stay here." Wen Nuan shook her head, looking at Leng Ye, her heart ached intensely.
If it weren’t for Leng Ye, she would be the one lying here now. She didn’t know how to thank Leng Ye; she’d rather it be her lying here than her friend.
"Then sit for a while longer." Tan Qing sighed: "I’ll go get something to eat."
"Are you all in here?" Just as he stood up, the door was gently pushed open, and Wen Qingyan walked in with many things, his handsome face filled with exhaustion: "All must be hungry, you go out and have something to eat, I’ll stay here with him."
"Dad." Wen Nuan burst into tears.
Surviving the disaster, seeing the closest person, her emotions mixed with guilt and unease.
"Eat something first."
Wen Qingyan forced a smile, gesturing for them all to go out.
The matter of Nuannuan’s pregnancy isn’t the priority now. Sitting in the chair, looking at Leng Ye’s pale face, he also felt immense guilt.
He had never given Leng Ye a kind look; in his eyes, there wasn’t a single good person in the Leng Family. When he learned that Leng Ye had protected Wen Nuan, his heart trembled and was flooded with guilt.
He was very grateful to the young man lying in bed for saving his daughter, but why did he have to belong to the Leng Family? If he liked Nuannuan, why did he break off the engagement initially, ah—
Earlier, he went out to make a call and noticed it was getting late, fearing they might be hungry, so he bought some food. Upon returning, seeing the doctor had left, he quickly caught up and asked, only to hear that his leg was not in a good condition, which shot his blood pressure up instantly.
All three of them ate in silence, not saying a word; the food tasted flavorless, and they kept looking at the surgery room door from time to time.
"He’s awake."
Not long after, the door was pushed open, Wen Qingyan stood in the doorway, sweat beading on his forehead, with a glimpse of relief in his eyes.
"Dad, you should rest a bit." Wen Nuan handed him the medicine she just got from the nurse: "Eat something and take the medicine, then go home."
"Go home, Uncle Wen, Nuannuan and Ye have us here taking care of them." Tan Qing and Tong Xi gently persuaded: "Don’t worry, it will be alright."
"The Leng Family..." Wen Qingyan sighed lightly: "Such a big incident, they must be informed."
"Let’s ask Leng Ye first." Tan Qing frowned.
He worried about how Leng Siyan would handle it when he found out, as he was most fond of Leng Ye. Knowing Leng Ye was in trouble, he didn’t know if he could endure it.
"How do you feel now?" Wen Nuan watched Leng Ye after he woke up, her hands trembled as they tightly held onto him.
"Nuannuan." He called her name softly, a pained smile tugging at the corner of his mouth, his voice hoarse.
Wen Nuan hurriedly passed a cup with a straw to him, her eyes brimming with tears: "Have some water."
Leng Ye waved his hand, his gaze fixed on his immobilized legs.
Wen Nuan bit her lip nervously, the hand holding the cup trembling slightly.
What she feared came to pass, as Leng Ye asked: "My legs..."
His voice was very soft, hoarse, like the wind lightly tearing through dried leaves, fragile.
Wen Nuan’s heart quivered painfully, momentarily unsure of how to answer.
"I’ve contacted the best doctors; a comprehensive checkup will be done tomorrow. The severe shock of the accident means temporary numbness in the legs is normal."
Outside, hearing Leng Ye’s words, Tan Qing pushed the door open and entered.
Wen Nuan gratefully looked at Tan Qing, tears still falling despite trying to hold them back, she turned her head to wipe them away.
The first part was true, but the last sentence wasn’t from the doctor, she knew.
"Nuannuan, I’m okay." Leng Ye saw her tears, forced a smile, grabbed her hand: "Don’t cry, how are you?"
"I’m fine, you protected me, and nothing happened to me." The moment replayed in her mind, her tears flowed like a stream.
If he hadn’t worried about her, he wouldn’t have driven towards the softer grass, wouldn’t have been hit by the car. If it was just a burst tire and hadn’t stopped for her, he wouldn’t be so badly hurt.
After coaxing Leng Ye to drink some porridge, watching him fall asleep, Wen Nuan and Tan Qing finally came out.
"Go and rest." Tan Qing looked at her, his gaze full of compassion: "I will stay here."
Glancing at Tong Xi, he handed her the keys: "You drive my car back."
"No need." Tong Xi shook her head, holding Wen Nuan’s hand: "If I went back, I’d have nothing to do, I’d rather stay with Nuannuan."
Nuannuan’s injury wasn’t serious, but she didn’t want to go back. She returned to T City to pursue Tan Qing. What meaning is there in staying alone in a cold house?
Here, at least she could see him. And she didn’t want him to become too exhausted, knowing he still needed to work the next day. She thought she could help take care of Leng Ye while Nuannuan slept soundly, once she fell asleep.

Leng Yan came back quickly.
