Upon noticing the danger, the staff and Xia Sui rushed over, and upon seeing this sight, they immediately shouted, "Jiayi, be careful!"
"Miss Lin, be careful —"
Almost as soon as they shouted, Xia Shangzhou, who was beneath Lin Jiayi, abruptly flipped around with her in his arms.
Following which, the white steed that had suddenly gone berserk stomped down on Xia Shangzhou's back before galloping past him and Lin Jiayi to continue galloping forward.
Taking in the entire scene, Xia Sui could clearly see that Xia Shangzhou's arms were placed on either side of Lin Jiayi's head instead of pressing down on her body and hugging her.
In fact, when the white horse stomped down on his back, his body swayed violently, but he didn't allow himself to fall onto the ground.
This was a small detail that no one else noticed, and even Lin Jiayi, the person in question, was oblivious to it.
However, Xia Sui saw through Xia Shangzhou's thoughts with a single glance. The reason why he was behaving this way wasn't because it was inappropriate for a man and a woman to touch each other but because he was afraid that he would injure her if the white horse stomped down on his back. He had intentionally used such a method to separate the horse and Lin Jiayi with his body …
On the other hand, Xia Shangzhou's face was exceptionally pale. Perhaps it was due to the immense force exerted by the horse, but he endured the pain and stared at Lin Jiayi beneath him for a moment before he finally managed to force himself to ask, "M-Ms Lin, a-are you alright?"
Lin Jiayi shook her head, but before she could say a word, Xia Shangzhou had already fallen heavily on top of her, and there was no reaction from her.
…
Xia Shangzhou was awoken by the pain. When he opened his eyes, he found himself in the hospital. His surroundings were extremely quiet, and when he looked out of the window, all he saw was darkness.
"You're awake?"
Before Xia Shangzhou, who was lying on the bed, could react, he heard an elegant voice coming from behind him.
He subconsciously tried to turn around, but the moment he moved, he immediately sucked in a deep breath of cold air in pain.
"Your back is injured, so don't move around recklessly …"
It was that elegant voice again. Following which, a cup with a straw was passed over to him, "Have some water."
Xia Shangzhou turned his head and glanced at the person who had walked up to him. As he accepted the cup of water, he politely thanked her, "Thank you, Miss Xia."
Xia Sui curled her lips and looked at him thoughtfully without saying a word.
Xia Shangzhou did not notice Xia Sui's strange behavior, nor did he drink the water. Instead, he asked, "Where's Chief Lin? Boss Lin … "
"Jiayi? Jiayi isn't very well … "
Before Xia Sui could finish her sentence, the glass in Xia Shangzhou's hand fell to the ground. He supported his injured body and struggled to get up from the bed. "What happened to her? How could she not be well? Are you hurt anywhere? "
Seeing his reaction, Xia Sui hurriedly reached out and pressed on his shoulder. "Calm down, I was just joking with you. She's fine, she went …" After some thought, Xia Sui changed her words. "… She went to pick up Qin Ting."
"Oh …" Xia Shangzhou withered like a frosted eggplant. He lay back on the bed and did not say another word.
Xia Sui, who had seen all of Xia Shangzhou's reactions ever since he woke up, stared at Xia Shangzhou for a moment, and she suddenly burst into laughter.
Xia Shangzhou turned to look at Xia Sui and asked, "What are you laughing at?"
