The Rebirth of the Fierce Little Cute Girl

Chapter 299: Chapter 298: The Vagaries of Fate

Seeing the wariness on Yiyi’s face, the handsome man leading the group couldn’t help but laugh and said, ”Little girl, don’t worry. There are no bad people here now.”

Yiyi sized up the person in front of her. Seeing the kindness in his eyes, her heart relaxed a little.

At this moment, Ding Yuejun wiped her tears and turned around, bowing deeply to the newcomers, saying, ”Thank you, thank you so much.”

”From a distance, I thought I was mistaken. Didn’t expect it to be you.”

Upon hearing this, Ding Yuejun finally looked up at the person in front of her, but her eyes were filled with confusion, ”You... who are you?”

Even Yiyi was full of surprise.

Could it be that her mother knew this man in front of her, but she had never seen him before.

”I’m Wei Hanliang. I went to Luwei Village as an educated youth at that time. We met twice; once from afar in the village, and another time on the mountain. I remember you fainted while going up the mountain. I carried you for a while, and after finding people and herbal medicine nearby, I discovered you were gone. Did you wake up and leave by yourself then?”

Wei Hanliang spoke of things from twenty years ago, with some nostalgia in his eyes.

”I didn’t realize how many years have flown by in the blink of an eye, but your looks haven’t changed much, pretty much the same as back then.” As he spoke, he glanced at Yiyi, saying, ”Is this your daughter? She looks a lot like you.”

However, at this moment, Ding Yuejun was simply stunned on the spot. She couldn’t believe what she was seeing and looked at Wei Hanliang with trembling lips and asked, ”That day... was it you who saved me when I was unconscious?”

”I just happened to see and lent a hand.”

Ding Yuejun gave Wei Hanliang a deep look, her eyes full of complexity.

She hadn’t reacted at first, but now upon closer inspection, this indeed was an educated youth she knew from before. He had such good looks that even seeing him only once from afar back then, she remembered him. So, the person who saved her back then was actually this man before her. However, when Wei Hanliang went to find the herbs, Mo Guowei arrived, and she thought it was Mo Guowei who saved her, which led to her decision to marry him.

Thinking of this, Ding Yuejun just felt that fate was playing tricks on her.

But she didn’t dwell on the past right now. She bowed deeply once again, and said, ”Really, thank you, Mr. Wei. You saved me once twenty years ago, and saved me again today. I will always remember this kindness and will definitely repay you in the future given the chance.”

Yiyi also looked at Wei Hanliang with a complex expression.

It turns out the man in front of her was the one who had saved her mother. If... back then, the misunderstanding hadn’t occurred, her mother wouldn’t have married Mo Guowei and lived such a painful and oppressive life. However... if that hadn’t happened, she wouldn’t exist.

Shaking her head, Yiyi stopped thinking about it and bowed deeply to Wei Hanliang, sincerely expressing her gratitude.

”Yiyi...”

Just as Yiyi finished expressing her thanks and was about to leave with her mother and Pei Wu, a familiar voice sounded beside her ear. She looked ahead in pleasant surprise, ”Master, we’re here.”

Seeing her master approach with people, her heart finally settled.

Wei Hanliang glanced at Guo Ming and the others, saw that they were familiar with Yiyi and her companions, and didn’t say much more. He looked at Ding Yuejun and said, ”Now that your acquaintances are here, I’ll be heading back.”

Hearing this, Ding Yuejun quickly said, ”Alright, take care.”

As she finished speaking, she paused and continued, ”Now I live over by Shichahai. If anything comes up in the future, you can find me there.”

Wei Hanliang had saved both her and her daughter, even if he didn’t mind, she still wanted to find an opportunity to repay him. Debts of gratitude are the hardest to repay, and if Wei Hanliang does come to them in the future, it would be all the better.

Upon hearing Ding Yuejun’s words, Wei Hanliang paused for a moment before saying, ”I also live over by Shichahai now. So we’re neighbors. I just returned to Shangjing a few days ago, which is why I haven’t seen you around the area.”

Hearing this, Ding Yuejun was also a bit surprised. After learning the specific location, she waved goodbye to him.

Watching Wei Hanliang and the others walk away, Yiyi quickly said to Guo Ming, ”Master, we need to get Xiao Wu to the hospital quickly! He’s seriously injured. I’m afraid... he might be in danger.”

Earlier, she had found an opportunity to give Pei Wu a Rongzhi Pill, but he still showed no signs of waking up, indicating how severe his injuries were.

”Alright, we’ll head to the hospital now.”

While Guo Ming was speaking, he quickly had Pei Jin and the others move, sending everyone to the hospital. He personally supported Yiyi, concernedly asking, ”Yiyi, how are you? Are you seriously hurt?” He genuinely hadn’t expected such an event to occur. If Yiyi and her companions hadn’t been lucky enough to be rescued, he might never have seen his young apprentice again.

Beside him, Ding Yuejun also looked at her daughter with concern and asked, ”Yiyi, how exactly do you feel? If you’re uncomfortable anywhere, you must tell me.”

”Mom, Master, I’m really fine. Look, I’m still in good spirits, aren’t I?”

Seeing the smile still on Yiyi’s face, they finally stopped questioning further. But once they reached the hospital and saw Yiyi’s examination report, Ding Yuejun couldn’t help but burst into tears, ”Yiyi, you said you were fine, but your rib is fractured. How can that be fine? If that fractured rib went in a little further, you could have lost your life.”

Just the thought of this made Ding Yuejun unable to stop her tears.

But now wasn’t the time to cry. If she broke down, then who would take care of Yiyi? So she forcibly held back her tears and finally said to Guo Ming, ”Master Guo, I’ll be looking after Yiyi well during this period, so you don’t need to worry.”

Guo Ming didn’t react as strongly as Ding Yuejun; after all, martial artists are bound to get injured at times, but he was still somewhat worried and spoke a few more words to Yiyi.

”Master, I’m really okay, you don’t need to listen to my mom. What I really want to know is how Xiao Wu is doing right now.”

Speaking of Pei Wu, their expressions both turned somewhat grim.

Ding Yuejun even choked up softly, her eyes full of guilt and regret.

Seeing the look on their faces, Yiyi’s heart sank, but she still asked, ”How is Xiao Wu really doing?”

”Sigh... He’s seriously injured and still in intensive care. Whether he can survive this depends on his fate.” Guo Ming couldn’t help but sigh.

”It’s all my fault. If it weren’t for me, Xiao Wu wouldn’t have been so badly hurt.”

Ding Yuejun felt very guilty, and she couldn’t hold back her tears any longer. However, in the end, her eyes were filled with hatred and determination, ”I must find out who did this to avenge Xiao Wu.”
