14. Guardian Angel

Feng Jiu rubbed her eyes and pinched herself lightly, trying to make sure that she wasn't just day-dreaming about Dong Hua. Her heart raced, after realizing that she wasn't just dreaming about it.


She couldn't believe her eyes, the man she loved deeply, was just standing right there across the road from her.


"Is it really Dong Hua?" Feng Jiu asked herself over and over again, as she was still shocked in disbelief.


"He's so near, yet so far." Feng Jiu sadly thought to herself while she looks at Dong Hua walking away.


All of a sudden, she noticed a man who was wearing a black hoodie and had his hood over his head, walking behind Dong Hua. The shady looking man was acting suspiciously, and it appears that he was following Dong Hua.


Her sixth sense immediately tells her that something was wrong. Feng Jiu then decided to follow them to see what was going on.


She was worried about Dong Hua, and she thought to herself, "better to be safe than sorry!"


Feng Jiu immediately grabs her ready food, left the restaurant, and followed after them.


----------------------------------------


Dong Hua walked towards his car, which was parked beside the office building. The car park was dark and empty as it was already late and past working hours.


The shady looking man was following closely behind Dong Hua.


Feng Jiu hastens her footsteps to get closer to them, but at the same time, she was trying to be sneaky because she didn't want Dong Hua to spot her.


Just when Dong Hua was getting on to his car, the man used this chance to pull out a knife from his hoodie and dashed towards Dong Hua.


Feng Jiu noticed that the man had a knife in his hand and that he was about to stab Dong Hua, from the back.


"Watch out, Dong Hua! Look behind you!"  Feng Jiu shouted without thinking.


Startled by Feng Jiu's loud voice, Dong Hua immediately turned around and saw the man charging towards him, with a knife in his hand.


He dodged the attack by a close call and kicked the knife out of the man's hand.


Feng Jiu quickly looked around her to see if she could find anything to use to fight the attacker. She then swiftly picked up a large tree branch that she found laying beside her and ran towards Dong Hua.


They were throwing punches at each other, and it looks like Dong Hua had the upper hand, so Feng Jiu just stood at a corner to watch. The attacker was then held down and restrained by Dong Hua.


It was of no surprise that the attacker was subdued in no time, as Dong Hua was well-versed in martial arts and taekwondo.


Growing up as an orphan, he learned how to fight so that he could protect himself from getting bullied. He knew that he could only rely on himself for his safety.


"Call the police now, Feng Jiu." Dong Hua said while pointing to Feng Jiu.


"What?! Dong Hua just called me by my name, he actually remembers me?!" Feng Jiu was momentarily stunned after hearing what Dong Hua said. After a moment of shock, she immediately took out her phone and called the police.


"You saved me again." Dong Hua said, using his usual cold voice.


Feng Jiu nervously lowered her gaze and blushed.


"Again...? What does he mean by that?" Feng Jiu didn't understand what Dong Hua meant by saying she saved him again, but she couldn't less about it at this moment.


She couldn't believe Dong Hua was praising her, and she couldn't stop smiling because of it.


----------------------------------------


Just before the police arrived, the attacker managed to break free from Dong Hua's grip.


Then he ran towards the knife, which was lying nearby. He swiftly picked it up and charged towards Feng Jiu.


He was trying to take her as a hostage so that he could threaten Dong Hua to let him go because the attacker knew that he wouldn't be able to win Dong Hua in a fight.


Dong Hua sprinted towards Feng Jiu and stood in front of her, protecting her from any harm.


Feng Jiu then quickly took the large tree branch and started hitting the attacker. He fell to his knees, whimpering in pain.


Upon hearing the police sirens approaching, the attacker used all his strength to grab the tree branch from Feng Jiu's hands.


He then pushed her really hard, and Feng Jiu fell to the floor, scraping her elbows.


Before he escapes, he ran towards Dong Hua and swung the tree branch with a great deal of force at Dong Hua, dealing a massive blow to his head.


Dong Hua instantly collapsed upon the impact. He also knocked his head against the hard concrete ground in the process. Blood profusely gushed out from his head as he lay motionlessly on the ground. Feng Jiu immediately got up and rushed towards Dong Hua.


"Wake up, Dong Hua. Please wake up, Dong Hua!" Help! Somebody help!" Feng Jiu cried out loud while hugging onto Dong Hua tightly and pressing on his wound to stop the bleeding.


Her loud cries for help attracted the attention of some passersby, and they quickly ran over to see what was going on, causing the attacker to fled.


The police arrived, and an ambulance was called. The police caught the attacker shortly after.


Feng Jiu refused to let go of Dong Hua and insisted on going to the hospital with him. There was blood everywhere on her hands, and on her clothes.


Her mind was flooded with fear, and she didn't know what to do. She could only pray that Dong Hua would be okay. Feng Jiu also blamed herself for picking up the tree branch.


"If only I didn't pick that tree branch up, then Dong Hua wouldn't be injured now. I was just trying to help, but it seems like I'm always adding more trouble for him." Feng Jiu thought to herself.


Feng Jiu broke down and couldn't stop crying.


Please be okay, Dong Hua...
