Free Web NovelChapter 941: Chapter 942: Pan Huixin Hit by an Ox
The person driving realized something was wrong, quickly pulling on the reins to slow the bull down, but the bull acted as if it had been provoked, completely ignoring the driver.
Due to the driver forcefully pulling the reins, the bull deviated from the road, charging directly towards where Pan Huixin was standing.
Suddenly, Pan Huixin was knocked down by the bull, and not only that, but one of the cart’s wheels rolled right over her leg, followed by a heart-wrenching scream, as the bull rampaged wildly.
Huo Jingrui heard the commotion and turned around to look back.
He immediately dropped the bag he was holding, shouted to Yunyi while running, "Wait for me."
Many pedestrians screamed in fear at the situation.
Yunyi feared Jingrui might not be able to handle the bull alone, and worried he might get hurt, so she ignored the bag on the ground and followed him straight away.
At this time, other military personnel waiting at the stop also dashed towards the bull upon hearing the noise. Fortunately, their combined strength subdued the bull quickly without having to reveal their true skills, and it stopped, panting heavily.
However, the driver was terribly frightened, his legs too weak to stand, sweating profusely despite the cold weather, babbling, "It’s over, it’s over, someone got hurt."
Someone spoke up, "It’s not your fault, we all saw it. Pan Huixin dropped the can first, and that’s what startled the bull."
"That’s right, we saw it too."
These few people, upon the arrival of Yunyi and Huo Jingrui, developed a gossiping interest when they saw Pan Huixin staring at them, and inadvertently witnessed the entire incident unfold.
Incidentally, one of them had an unpleasant encounter with Pan Huixin’s mother before, "This is Pan Huixin’s own doing. If she hadn’t thrown the can to the ground forcefully, the bull wouldn’t have been startled, and she wouldn’t be hurt."
"Alright, let’s not worry about whose fault it is now; let’s get her to the hospital quickly."
Huo Jingrui had to catch the bus and didn’t concern himself with further matters. He grabbed Yunyi and picked up the bag thrown by the roadside, heading towards the stop in front.
The bus driver was also warm-hearted and upon witnessing the incident, quickly opened the door and rushed out without a word.
Once Huo Jingrui boarded, the driver smiled and said, "Young man, nice reflexes, you truly live up to being military personnel."
Huo Jingrui noticed him earlier, "It’s everyone’s effort."
The driver, seeing Huo Jingrui’s humility, didn’t say more but smiled, "Find a seat, we’re heading out now."
From the courtyard to the military base, the ride would take over an hour.
Yunyi quickly sat on one of the empty seats and pointed inside to Huo Jingrui, indicating there was still a vacant spot.
After all, there were people getting on the bus behind them.
She chose the outer seat with ulterior motives.
After all, during this journey, more people would board, and if Huo Jingrui sat outside, he might have to give up his seat due to his military uniform. Better for her, a civilian, to sit outside.
Yunyi guessed correctly, as many people boarded the bus along the way to the base, and most of the military personnel who initially sat outside started yielding their seats, standing in the aisle.
Yunyi didn’t say it out loud, but her little proud expression almost made Huo Jingrui laugh. He leaned close to her ear as expected and whispered, "Thanks to Tuo Yi’er, we don’t have to stand all the way. You foresaw this well."
Yunyi was pleased now, though despite sitting the whole way, the ride was quite bumpy, "How much longer until we arrive?"
