“You…” The woman was about to retort when she saw Ye Ling picking up Xiao Hu from the ground. She wrapped her arms around Xiao Hu’s waist, placing her hands between his belly button and sternum. Then, with one hand clenched into a fist and the other hand covering it, she tightly pressed Xiao Hu’s chest.

“What are you doing?” The woman screamed in terror, wanting to intervene and carrying a fist full of force that was about to strike Ye Ling.

Suddenly, a man’s deep voice sounded as he firmly grabbed the woman’s wrist. “She’s saving a life, don’t interfere!”

At that moment, Ye Ling paid no attention to the woman who wanted to harm her or the man who prevented her from doing so.

Her heartbeat raced as if she could sense the child in her arms teetering on the edge of life and death.

This child had already missed the critical window for optimal treatment, and she had no certainty of success.

But at this moment, Ye Ling didn’t have time to consider whether she would be hated and blamed by the child’s mother if the child died in the end.

There was only one thought in her mind, “Save the child!”

Every second seemed so long. Everyone’s hearts were in their throats, and they did not even dare to breathe heavily.

After an unknown period, something flew out of the child’s mouth and landed on the ground.

Once the foreign object was expelled, the child began coughing violently, his body collapsing weakly. His eyes were empty, seemingly still trapped in the terror of impending death.

Ye Ling watched the almond rolling on the ground and let out a long breath, finally realizing that her entire body was drenched in sweat.

Fortunately, she succeeded…

Ye Ling’s body felt weak. Observing the woman hugging the child and weeping a faint smile appeared on her lips. She said nothing and turned to leave the scene.

She still had laundry to do.

“Who is she? Didn’t she say she wasn’t a doctor? How did she manage to save Xiao Hu?”

“I don’t know. Maybe this is just a shot in the dark?”

“That was truly terrifying. I’ll have to keep a close eye on my grandson when he eats from now on!”

The surrounding people whispered among themselves as they sized up Ye Ling. No one stepped forward to stop her as they watched her leave.

Although Ye Ling had saved Xiao Hu, she had said that she wasn’t a doctor. Therefore, everyone present still had some doubts about her. They thought that it was very likely a coincidence that she had successfully saved Xiao Hu.

Ye Ling walked over to the wooden basin, lifting it. She felt her arms lacking strength.

As she was about to leave, a man’s voice suddenly came from behind her. “You’re injured.”

Ye Ling turned her head, her eyes widening in astonishment as she called out the person’s name. “Officer Min?”

Upon hearing Ye Ling addressing him as an officer, Min Nan instinctively wanted to avert his gaze.

He held back his guilt and walked towards Ye Ling, looking at her hand. “Your hand is injured. You can wash your clothes another day.”

Only then did Ye Ling feel the pain in the palm of her hand. She had forgotten about the injury. It seemed that she had been too nervous just now.

“Thank you for reminding me. I’ll go back now.” Just as Ye Ling was about to leave, Min Nan called out to her again. “I live nearby. I have medicine and bandages at home. Why don’t you come to my place to treat your wound?”

Min Nan blurted out these words almost without thinking. His rationality told him that it wasn’t appropriate, but he couldn’t just let the girl who had just saved a child go back alone.

She had just moved to Willow Village and didn’t know anyone. It was highly likely that she didn’t have any medicine or tools to treat her wound at her place.

There seemed to be another voice in Min Nan’s heart saying, “She needs your kindness!”

Ye Ling blinked her eyes and finally reacted. “So, you live in Willow Village.”

That’s right, Officer Min appeared in Willow Village, so he must live here. Why did her mind suddenly become so dull?

Seeing that Ye Ling was completely focused on the wrong point, Min Nan sighed helplessly in his heart. After hesitating for two seconds, he picked up the wooden basin containing Ye Ling’s clothes with one hand and pointed in a direction with the other. “That house over there is my home, not far away.”

Since Min Nan had said so, Ye Ling felt too embarrassed to refuse and could only follow him.

At Sun Li’s doorstep, Min Nan pushed open the gate. Upon entering, his eyes met Sun Li, who was in the middle of the yard hanging clothes.

Sun Li’s gaze passed Min Nan and landed on Ye Ling, who was behind him. She froze for two seconds before her eyes suddenly turned fiery!

Seeing Sun Li’s intense gaze, Ye Ling was so startled that she almost took two steps back.

Min Nan observed Sun Li’s exaggerated expression and knew that he wouldn’t be able to explain himself now.
