After more than an hour of driving, they finally arrived at the Parks residence. Julian had tried his best to drive very slowly, but Annalise still vomited. She had overexerted herself today. She took the car several times and was highly concentrated several times, too. Her spirit was completely drained. The moment she got out of the car, she vomited. Julianâs heart ached to see her like that.
Old Mr. Parksâs heart ached as well. He said to Julian, âPut me on the bed later. Take good care of Anna. She⦠has worked too hard today.â Old Mr. Parksâs voice was choked with heartache when he said his sentence. It was not easy for him to be emotionally moved at his age. However, Annaâs performance today moved him beyond words. She was calm, rational, decisive, and A pregnant 20-
year-old girl fought with a bunch of gangsters. At that time, she had tried every means to deal with the gangster to save him. He saw the forbearance in her eyes, and she forced the tears in her eyes back to crush the gangsters with her momentum. He wanted to rush over and fight the gangsters to the death.
He had been stabbed twice in his leg and could not move. Otherwise, he would not have let Julian carry him. âGrandpa, Iâm not tired,â Annalise said. Her face was already pale when she took a car. Now that she vomited, her face turned even paler. âGood girl.â Old Mr. Parksâs throat tightened. He was touched and grateful. It was hard to describe with words. Quickly carry Grandpa to lie down. Iâll give Grandpa some medicine later,â Annalise said. She was so tired now that she wanted to lie down and fell asleep immediately. However, there were still many things that she had yet to figure out. Even if she went to bed, she couldnât fall asleep.// âOkay.â Julian strode into the room with Grandpa in his arms. But he looked back at Annalise from time to time.
When he placed Grandpa on the bed, Grandpa shouted, âJulian.â âGrandpa!â Julian looked at him.
Grandpa told him, âAnna has not only worked hard today but sheâs also been wronged. Youâre young people. There are some things that you must explain clearly.â âI see. Donât worry, Grandpa!â Julian said.
How could he not explain it clearly? He had a lot more to ask her than an explanation. He also had a lot to tell her. âAlright, go to her quickly!â Grandpa was relieved by Julianâs statement. Julian went to look for Annalise at once. Annalise had entered the room.
Julian immediately water for her. âHoney, drink some water, said he Annalise did not take the water over and said, âIâm going to brush my teeth.â Usually, she did not feel anything when she retched. But she had vomited today and felt terrible now. âLet me help you.â Julian immediately helped Annalise up.
Annalise tilted her head and gave Julian an odd look. Julian felt extremely uncomfortable. Annalise did not say anything. She went upstairs and to the bathroom to brush her teeth. Julian was waiting for her at the door. âDo you have something to say to me?â Annalise asked. She also wanted to hear what he had to say. Julian walked over. He held Annaliseâs hand and pulled her to sit on the edge of the bed.
After she sat down properly, he squatted in front of her, slightly lower than her. He raised his head slightly to look at her, holding her hands with his hands. His expression was quite serious when he said, âHoney, Iâm sorry about what happened today!â âSorry for what?â Annalise suddenly felt a little uncomfortable when she heard his apology. With their relationship, she didnât want to hear his apology and would rather hear him say, âHoney, thanks for your hard work!â
âI didnât protect you well enough to put you in danger. If it werenât for your extraordinary skills, I donât dare to imagine what would have happened.â Julianâs heart felt a little uncomfortable and tight at that point. When Annalise heard him say that, her displeasure was instantly swept away. Although she had seen him ignore that girl with her eyes, she still felt uncomfortable, like a small knot in her heart. âI know what Iâm doing. If my kung fu were not good, I wouldnât cause trouble for you,â Annalise said.âNo.
You will never cause any trouble for me.!â Instead, it was her ability that put him to shame.
âThatâs good,â Annalise said with a smile. She looked at him again. Julian met Annaliseâs gaze. He knew she wanted to hear the story that happened twelve years ago at the Yogan railway station. He held her hands tightly and said, âTwelve years ago, when I was 14 years old, I had an asthma attack at Yogan railway station. It was a little girl who saved me with acupuncture. âIâve been looking for her all these years but found no news of her.
âAt the banquet at the Xander residence yesterday, we went to the washroom and saw that the girl happened to use the orchid fingers to perform acupuncture. Therefore, I asked Trevor to confirm her identity, and all her information matched.â âSo, you think sheâs your savior?â Annalise asked. âYes,â
Julian replied. He looked at her eagerly. She also used the orchid finge the needles. Did she go to Yogan railway station and save a teenage boy 12 years ago? âIf I wasnât there, would you have saved that girl?â Annalise asked. âNo!â Julian was very sure of it.
If she had really been kidnapped, he might have saved her. However, it was obvious that it was just a plot, a plot to sow discord between them. âSheâs not your savior!â Annalise said firmly. She might not have been sure if Julian had founded his savior any other time. However, they had only met her at the banquet at the Xander family yesterday when they went to the washroom. If it wasnât a plot, what was it?
First, she pretended to perform acupuncture on a heart attack patient in front of the bathroom door and let Julian see her doing the acupuncture with the orchid fingers. Seeing that Julian did not say anything, she pretended to be harassed again. Again and again. She just pretended to be kidnapped today. They had really put in a lot of effort to sow discord between them. When Julian heard Annalise say with certainty that she was not his savior, he looked at Annalise more eagerly. His voice was trembling. âYou went to the Yogan railway station twelve years ago, didnât you?â
âDo you still remember what the little girl was wearing?â Annalise asked. Julian nodded. âYes, I remember it a little.â âWhat was she wearing?â Annalise asked. âShe was thin with big eyes and light yellow hair. She had two small ponytails and was carrying a small cloth bag. Sheâs wearing a zippered red jacket and plaid pantsâ¦â Julian described. âYou remember so much information about her but canât find her?â Annalise was a little shocked. âMany little girls dressed like that at that time,â Julian said helplessly.
âUhâ¦â Annalise thought about it. It made sense. At that time, she did not know Madeline, and her clothes were all bought by Cash.Cashâs pots had always been expensive, so she said she was the richest like her name suggested. Cash loved to buy clothes for her, and plaid pants were the fashion of that time She took out her phone, logged into her private cloud drive, downloaded a photo of her as a child, and showed it to Julian. âIs that what she was wearing?â she asked. Julian looked at the photo and asked excitedly, âItâs you, isnât it?â
