The very next moment, a brick hit Deng Kun's forehead hard. Struck by pain, he loosened his grip and held his forehead.
Having lost her support, Zhu Xiangxiang started to fall backwards. Just as she was about to hit the ground, a person rushed out and caught her in their arms.
"Xiangxiang." The woman cried out in pain.
Struggling to open her eyes, Zhu Xiangxiang took a faint look at the person in front of her. Her deathly still eyes suddenly sparked with light, "Mum... is that you?"
"Am I dead? Or am I dreaming..." Zhu Xiangxiang murmured.
"It's me, mum is here, Xiangxiang, you need to stop talking, mum will take you to the hospital..." Lin Qing brought out her mobile phone from her bag, her fingers trembling as she dialled 120.
Tears flowed from Zhu Xiangxiang's eyes, landing on the back of Lin Qing's hand. Lin Qing paused for a moment, feeling a sudden sting in her heart.
