Who is he?

Before Xu Qinghuan could think any further, a sharp pain shot through her head, causing her delicate brows to furrow.

When the doctor saw her like this, he quickly went over to relieve her pain.

A few minutes later, the nurse who had just left rushed back in. "The gentleman said he understands."

"Isn't he coming?"

"Yes, the person has already left."

As Xu Qinghuan listened to the nurse and doctor's conversation, she felt something was off. Before she could even speak, a wave of nausea and vomiting washed over her.

After struggling for a while, Xu Qinghuan's last bit of strength was quickly exhausted, and she closed her eyes and fell asleep again.

When I woke up again, I had been moved to a regular ward.

Opening my eyes, the first thing I saw was Manager Wang, his forehead wrapped in gauze, sitting in a chair to the side. Ryan had come with him, his tall figure covered in dust, his deep mixed-race face full of worry.

"Thank God, you're awake!"

When Ryan saw her open her eyes, he immediately walked to the bedside.

Xu Qinghuan felt a little dizzy, but fortunately the pain was not too bad, probably because the painkillers hadn't worn off yet.

"I'm fine..."

"You really scared me to death!" Ryan's Chinese wasn't very good, and he sounded somewhat like a foreigner. "If something happens to you because of the Weijing City project, then I'll really be in deep trouble!"

She had applied for a transfer, but she stayed only because I strongly persuaded her to.

Xu Qinghuan smiled weakly, and suddenly thought of the "he" the doctor had mentioned earlier. That must be Ryan!

I actually... I actually had that tiny bit of wishful thinking, actually believing it was true...

"How did you come?"

"I was originally back in China to inspect another project, but when I heard about your accident, I immediately bought the next available flight to come here! Fortunately, the doctor said you're not seriously injured. You're lucky that the best doctors in Weijing City have gathered here today!"

"I've always been lucky to have such a great boss like you," Xu Qinghuan joked, trying to sit up.

Ryan quickly helped her by placing a pillow behind her back.

Manager Wang, who was standing next to her, was about to thank Xu Qinghuan for coming to her rescue despite her own safety, but she spoke first.

"After this, our resort should really be free of obstacles. That holdout has been arrested, right?"

Ryan was unsure whether to feel helpless or praise her for her dedication.

"You're in this state, what project are you thinking about? If they really hurt you badly today, I will absolutely not let those thugs get away with it!"

“Ryan, those residents were all instigated, so don’t make things too difficult for them. Besides… actually, I intentionally provoked that holdout, but I didn’t expect him to be so ruthless.”

Xu Qinghuan knew that this person would not give up unless he really suffered a bit, and he wouldn't be so easy to reason with. So the original intention of calling the police was to hope that the police would come and take them away when the other party harassed them. After all, the incident of gathering a crowd to cause trouble was established, and the police had witnessed it with their own eyes, so they could at least detain him for a few days.

Upon hearing this, Manager Wang immediately frowned and scolded, "Xiao Xu, don't do this again. The project is important, but your personal safety is more important! If it weren't for the kind passerby who happened to save you today, I don't know what would have happened to you!"

"Kind person? Manager Wang, did you get the other person's contact information? I'd like to thank them in person."

Manager Wang shook his head. "At the time, I was barely able to protect myself and was being harassed by several rioters. I didn't get a clear look at what the kind person looked like, but I could vaguely make out that he was a tall, thin man wearing a black suit."
