Chapter 309: Moving Places
The villagers nodded and agreed before they finally dispersed.
The woman gave Song Ning water before she went to work.
…
In the middle of the night, a car drove into the village. A woman disembarked from the car and started crying silently.
When Song Ning saw the woman, she thought the woman looked familiar.
“Sister Ning Xia, I’m Xiao Peng. I’m Sister Yang Li’s a.s.sistant.” Xiao Peng stepped forward and held Song Ning’s hand.
At this moment, Song Ning’s eyes reddened. She finally had some connection to her original world. “Xiao Peng, why am I here? Why am I hurt? Where’s my family? Where’s my child? Do you know anything? Can you tell me?”
Song Ning’s voice was hoa.r.s.e, but it was much better than before.
Xiao Peng stood by the window, surveying the surroundings before she returned to Song Ning’s side again. She said softly, “It’s a long story. Let’s talk about it later. This is Sister Yang Li’s hometown. She’s being targeted by Ye Xin’s brother. Since her grandfather died, she sent his ashes back here for burial. It just so happens that something happened to you at this time. I’ve brought the necessary things in the car. Tomorrow morning, word will spread that Sister Yang Li has pa.s.sed away and will be buried. Apart from that, Sister Yang Li and Director Pan have arranged for you to be treated at a hospital. What’s most important is treating your injuries. We can talk about the rest later…”
Fortunately, Xiao Peng’s words were not too vague. The most important thing that Song Ning managed to glean from Xiao Peng’s words was that she was still in her original world. She had been an impatient person. Moreover, in this kind of situation, it was important that she remained level-headed.
Xiao Peng was indeed an experienced person from the entertainment industry. Her words and actions were top-notch.
In just a short moment, despite how late it was, word had spread to half of the villagers that Yang Li was on her last breath and her best friend from the city had come to send her off.
After preparing the funeral items for Yang Li’s relatives, Song Ning was brought to Xiao Peng’s car. The car had been modified to accommodate Song Ning so she could lie down and not feel too uncomfortable.
“Sister, bear with this for a while. We’ll leave after I put on a show for them,” Xiao Peng said softly after she helped Song Ning settle down in the car.
Song Ning heard the commotion outside and regretted not asking Xiao Peng for a phone. Then, she could have called Mu Chen, Grandma, or Jiahui. She wondered if they were okay and if her child was okay.
After Song Ning confirmed she was still living in her original world, she could not help the worries that surged up in her heart.
…
It was not until the sky began to brighten that Xiao Peng returned to the car and drove away under the villagers’ eyes.
When the car finally pulled away from the village, Xiao Peng let out a huge sigh of relief. Then, she said, “Sister Ning Xia, the journey will take more than two hours. Try to bear with it and get some rest first. When we arrive at L City, we’ll be safe.”
“Why are we going to L City? Why aren’t we going back to M City? Xiao Peng, tell me. What happened to my family? Why am I here? How did I get here? I don’t know anything at all. Please tell me. How’s my family? Are they okay?” Song Ning said in a trembling voice.
Xiao Peng sighed softly. “Sister Ning Xia, your family is fine. They’re all fine. However, you… someone harmed you so you can’t return for now. You have to recover first. Only when you’re healthy can you return to M City.”
Song Ning was stunned and confused. “Pengpeng, I don’t understand what you’re saying.”
Xiao Peng rubbed her temples before she said, “Sister Ning Xia, don’t ask. It’s not something that can be explained in a few words. You don’t have to worry about your family. They’re all fine. I’m not lying to you. The only person who isn’t fine is you…”
