Chen Jun was trembling all over now, his eyes filled with uncertain astonishment. “Back off, everyone! Back off!”

With a gesture from Gu Chen, the several bodyguards slowly retreated, and Chen Jun regained some stability.

“Aren’t you curious to see your daughter? She’s already undergoing dialysis, and Mingxin Hospital has the best doctors. Look.” Gu Chen opened the video on his phone, allowing Chen Jun to see the contents.

“Is she undergoing dialysis?” Chen Jun found it hard to believe, but he was not as tense as before.

Seeing his daughter lying on the hospital bed, tears welled up in his eyes. Wasn’t everything he did for his daughter?

Gu Chen approached slowly, still holding the phone. “Yes, I keep my word. And I know you are merely being manipulated, not the mastermind. Release her, and I guarantee your daughter will receive the best treatment.”

Song Fan, trying to stay alert, gripped her arm forcefully. At this moment, she could hardly hold on, and as Gu Chen approached, he could feel her body temperature rising, resembling a blazing furnace.

“Release her first; you are just being used. I know.” Gu Chen continued to move forward slowly, a hint of urgency in his voice. As Song Fan’s gasps grew louder, and her eyes lost focus, he said, “Your daughter says you’re a good dad. Think about her.”

A complex expression appeared on Chen Jun’s face. Just as he was about to drop the kitchen knife, the alarm outside suddenly blared. Chen Jun’s expression changed immediately. “You liar! How dare you call the police?”

He swung the kitchen knife with excitement, and Gu Chen, not caring about his injuries, quickly stepped forward, directly grabbing the knife to prevent it from harming Song Fan.

Chen Jun exploded, his eyes now bloodshot. He no longer cared about Song Fan; with both hands, he forcefully pressed the knife toward Gu Chen’s palm.

Meanwhile, Song Fan used her last ounce of strength to tightly grasp one of Chen Jun’s arms. She had no strength left; all she could do was rely on her weight to resist him.

Fortunately, the nearby bodyguards reacted swiftly, quickly restraining Chen Jun.

Ignoring the pain in his hand, Gu Chen hurriedly lifted Song Fan. Anxiously, he asked, “Fanfan, how are you?”

At that moment, Song Fan suddenly felt a profound sense of relief. She weakly displayed a smile, her lips moved, and Gu Chen couldn’t quite catch her words until he approached a bit more. It was then that he heard Song Fan uttering something.

“You also saved me once.”

When Song Fan opened her eyes, what she saw was the hospital ceiling, and the familiar scent of disinfectant filled the air. She noticed the logo of Mingxin Hospital, realizing that Gu Chen had rescued her.

Gently moving her hand, she discovered that Gu Chen was tightly gripping it, his left hand wrapped in bandages. Recalling how he had directly intercepted the kitchen knife before she lost consciousness, Song Fan struggled to sit up to check on his injuries, inadvertently startling Gu Chen.

“Fanfan, you’re awake! How are you feeling? Any discomfort?” Gu Chen’s voice was somewhat hoarse, but his eyes were filled with concern.

Before she could respond, Song Kai’s voice echoed from the other side of the room, “Little sister, you’re awake! You finally woke up, sob, sob…”

She then noticed that Song Kai had been curled up on the corner sofa, with a messy hairstyle, seemingly guarding her throughout the night.

Song Kai grabbed Song Fan’s other hand, crying, “You scared me! I thought you… sob, sob…”

Song Fan was speechless; it was the first time she realized that the school tyrant could cry so much. Seeing his nasal mucus about to drip onto her hand, she quickly withdrew her hand and watched as it dripped onto the quilt.

“Little sister, you have no idea how worried I was about you.” Song Kai wiped his nose without care, wanting to hold Song Fan’s hand again, but she dodged it directly.

“Can you pay a little attention? Your big nose is about to turn into a river!” Song Fan wrinkled her brow and, with some effort, pulled out a tissue from the bedside table to hand it to him.

Song Kai blew his nose loudly and proudly, looking at Gu Chen.

Song Fan felt powerless to comment and said, “I’m fine. Can you go back and tidy yourself up? If you go out with your current appearance, your friends might not even recognize you.”

Hearing this, Song Kai quickly turned to look at his reflection in the window, then said embarrassedly, “I was just worried about you. I haven’t slept for two days.”

“I slept for two days?” Song Fan hadn’t expected to sleep for two days.

Gu Chen poured a glass of water for her and took out a straw, placing it in the cup. “Drink a little less water for now. The doctor said you need to rest for some time. Your arm is fine, but the infection on your leg is quite severe.”

Song Ting pushed open the door and entered, speaking in a somewhat cold tone, “She’s lucky not to be dead!”
