Chapter 317: Chapter 318: Artificial Respiration
Translator: 549690339
When Han Xiaomei opened her eyes,
she saw a scruffy man with a full shadow of stubble on his face giving her artificial respiration.
Han Xiaomei looked at the face approaching her.
She felt so disgusted that she wanted to throw up.
She pushed the man away forcefully: “Get away, what are you doing?”
Gu Qichen took a step forward: “Miss Han, he just saved you.”
Han Xiaomei looked up, only to see Gu Qichen’s handsome, cold face.
Last night, during her conversation with Xia Yangyang,
Yangyang had mentioned that Gu Qichen was an excellent swimmer.
Just now, when the crowd pushed and shoved,
she fell into the water.
She thought Gu Qichen would undoubtedly come to save her.
If he did, she would have a reason and an opportunity to get close to him in the future.
But he stayed in the water for a long time, and she was almost exposed.
Actually, she could swim.
She really wouldn’t risk her life for a man.
Just as she was about to swim to shore by herself, Gu Qichen dived in after her.
Han Xiaomei felt a surge of joy.
But then she had been flailing in the water too long.
To ensure her cover, she choked on some water just in time.
So when she was rescued, she really had drowned.
However, she thought that since Gu Qichen was willing to save her, he must be willing to perform CPR.
When she regained some consciousness just now, she was elated.
However, when she unstifled her extreme happiness and opened her eyes, she was shocked to see such a disgusting face.
Han Xiaomei looked at Gu Qichen, wondering if he had discovered her secret.
But in front of so many people, she couldn’t make a scene.
So she apologized to the vagrant: “Thank you for saving me, sorry about just now, I was startled.”
The vagabond didn’t care about that at all.
With money in hand, he quickly bowed to Gu Qichen and ran off.
Han Xiaomei sat on the ground, her entire body soaked through.
Thinking about having mouth-to-mouth with the vagrant, she felt waves of disgust.
Xia Yangyang quickly moved in: “Sister Xiaomei, you really scared me, are you all right? Do you want to get checked at the hospital?”
Han Xiaomei looked at Xia Yangyang’s worried and innocent face and felt as if a fire was about to explode inside her.
She didn’t expect Xia Yangyang to have grown so much over the years.
She just watched as a vagrant took advantage of her and didn’t intervene.
On the surface, however, she managed a smile: “I’m fine, let’s go back.”
The ride back was in Xia Yangyang’s car.
Gu Qichen and Han Xiaomei were soaked through and needed to shower and change clothes as soon as possible.
It was winter, so Xia Yangyang worried about them catching a cold.
Gu Qichen sat in the passenger seat without speaking for the entire journey.
Han Xiaomei, sitting in the back seat, clenched her fingers.
After they got back, Xia Yangyang said, “I need to borrow your bathroom.”
Xia Yangyang drove straight to Han’s house.
Miao Shuhui noticed the two of them were soaked through and asked anxiously, “What happened to you two?”
Han Xiaomei said: “I got pushed into the river while watching the dragon boat race, luckily Brother Gu saved me.”
Miao Shuhui was very grateful to Gu Qichen: “You guys go and take a shower. I will make you some ginger tea, you must have caught a chill.”
Xia Yangyang turned to Gu Qichen: “You go shower first, I will get your clothes and come over.”
Before Gu Qichen could respond, Xia Yangyang had already run off.
Gu Qichen could only sigh and go upstairs by himself.
Han Xiaomei’s room had its own bathroom, so she naturally went to her room.
Gu Qichen went to the separate bathroom he used last night.
However, after a short while, the door of the separate bathroom opened and Han Xiaomei appeared at the doorway.
