Chapter 252: Chapter 245: A Girl Named Lin Falls from the Sky
On the third day, Miss Jin came quite early, though to her surprise, her students were even earlier than her.
Moreover, Tang Yuxin and her friends were there every day. She couldn’t help but laugh as she watched them from the window.
No wonder Teacher Song didn’t seem herself after seeing her. It’s because her class didn’t want to join hers. She didn’t feel that Class Five was superior. The children in that classroom were all turning into robots, only caring about their own studies and their own academic results. But that wasn’t good for their future.
Don’t underestimate these poor students in their class. Yes, the students from Class Five will later get into Nanqing University, Qing University, Beijing University, and then later maybe graduate school. They might even end up working in the companies owned by her former students.
Of course, all of this is a joke.
However, Miss Jin was unaware that these jokes would come true in the future.
But that’s a talk for another time. By the time they meet again, it would be more than a decade later. By then, everything would have changed too rapidly, and some things may occur beyond their wildest dreams.
Tang Yuxin had just returned to the Xu Family when she received a call from Tang Zhinian.
“Dad...” She shouted joyfully, having not seen him for some time. She knew her father was busy trying to move the business from out of town back home so that he could spend more time in Qing’an.
However, having been in business for so long, his connections and opportunities were all over the place, making it hard to leave. Otherwise, Tang Zhinian, who treated his daughter like a princess, couldn’t possibly leave her here, barely seeing her.
“Yuxin, I’m back.”
The sound of his daughter’s voice instantly lit up Tang Zhinian’s face with a smile.
“Ah, you’re back?” Tang Yuxin clutched the phone, “Where are you, Dad? I’ll come home in a bit.”
“Uh...” Tang Zhinian’s voice faltered on the phone.
“Yuxin, your father...”
How is she? Tang Zhinian wiped sweat off his forehead. Can she be saved?
Yes, she still can. If it had been Tang Yuxin from her previous life, she might not have been recoverable. But in this life, after learning the Chen family’s medical skills with a goal of maintaining good health, her chances of recovery would be better.
To sum it up, this woman wasn’t ill. She just didn’t want to live. It was that simple.
“Dad, where did you find this person?” Tang Yuxin tucked the woman’s skeletal arm back under the blankets. She needed to go back to the Li Tang Village and bring back some stuff.
Tang Zhinian looked upwards.
Then he pointed his finger up.
“She fell from the building above.”
“Oh, a fairy who fell from the sky.”
Tang Yuxin tried to visualize it. “This flying fairy, the building wasn’t high, was it?”
“Not too bad, highest is the sixth floor.”
“Oh...” Tang Yuxin imagined the situation at the time, she was really lucky. It was the sixth floor, maybe something broke her fall. If it had been a building with over thirty floors, she would have shattered her bones.
“Then, does this have anything to do with Dad?” She hoped it wouldn’t be her honest father who had driven the woman to jump off the building.
“Well...” Tang Zhinian wasn’t sure how to phrase his answer. “She aimed to fall on me, but I dodged and she ended up hitting the ground. Do you think if I had caught her, she wouldn’t be in this state?”
“Yes, she wouldn’t be in this state,” Tang Yuxin picked up her father’s words, “Instead, she’d have crushed you to death, leaving me an orphan with no one to care for me, no one to love me. I’d be left like a helpless lone cabbage in a field.”
Tang Zhinian wasn’t sure whether to laugh or cry at this. He looked somewhat awkward.
Tang Yuxin stood up and glanced at the half-dead woman on her bed, who was as skinny as a ghost. Her eyes squinted into slits. It’s a good thing you didn’t fall on my dad. If you had crippled him, even if you didn’t die, I would have killed you.
