The darkness before her eyes was boundless. She couldn’t feel any strength in her body, and after what seemed like an eternity, she finally felt her fingers return to movement.
She reached up and touched the painful spot on her forehead, where she felt a sticky substance.
“Tongtong, don’t sleep, Brother will take you to the hospital, don’t sleep…”
Shutong heard a boy’s panting voice beside her. He was anxious and frightened, so his voice was hoarse and almost cracking.
The voice was quickly carried away by the cool breeze.
Shutong struggled to open her heavy eyelids, still feeling dizzy from excessive blood loss.
Her lips were so dry and chapped that they hurt. She felt extremely uncomfortable even opening her mouth.
In this world, she is called Wen Shutong, 5 years old, and her older brother is Wen Shuying, 15 years old.
The two of them were orphans and had been wandering for more than half a year. Their clothes were tattered and smelled sour, and they were both emaciated from hunger.
Just now, Wen Shuying, unable to bear the hunger any longer, stole bread, only to be chased out by the shop owner, who then called for a group of people to surround and beat him.
Shutong was terrified when she saw this. She came out from the corner and tried to pull Wen Shuying away, but she was hit on the forehead with a stone and immediately fainted while bleeding.
No one cared about the two little beggars’ lives.
After receiving the memories of this body, Shutong’s mind was still hazy. Her small arms clung tightly to Wen Shuying’s neck.
Her weak voice rang out, “Brother, I’m alright…”
Upon hearing her voice, Wen Shuying’s eyes instantly welled up with tears, and although his legs staggered, he ran as fast as he could.
“Don’t be afraid, little sister, we’ll be at the hospital soon.”
But as soon as he finished speaking, he tripped over something, lost his balance, and fell forward, tumbling to the ground along with Shutong on his back!
Shutong felt the world go dark again, her vision blurred, and her ears were ringing!
However, Wen Shuying protected her very well. His knees and chin were bleeding from the impact, but he didn’t utter a sound. He got up again and carried Shutong on his back.
Shutong gasped for breath: “Brother, stop, it hurts.”
At the same time, she counted in her mind, calculating the time when the hero would appear.
The hero in the novel is a soldier, while the heroine is the most beautiful and talented woman in the town.
In the story, Shutong was carried by her brother for a long time, falling countless times. Later, she was taken to the hospital for emergency treatment by the kind and upright hero. The heroine even donated blood for her, which saved her life. However, after Shutong was saved, she became mentally impaired.
The hero and heroine became acquainted through this incident, and Shutong’s brother also remembered the heroine who brought him warmth and hope from this time onwards.
Later, the older brother went astray and became a thug. He played a role when the heroine was in danger, dying in her place.
Shutong, who lacked her older brother’s care, also died at the age of nine.
[Host’s fate modification progress 1%. The host’s priority is to save her life.]
The system’s voice rang in Shutong’s mind.
Shutong lay on Wen Shuying’s back, feeling even more uncomfortable from the jolting.
She covered her forehead, trying to stop Wen Shuying from running any further: “Brother, put me down…”
This was a main road; if she remembered correctly, the hero’s car would definitely be coming from ahead.
Seeing Shutong’s obvious discomfort, Wen Shuying stopped, panting, and put her down to check her wound.
The wound on Shutong’s forehead looked gruesome, and her little face was covered in blood. Both of her hands were also covered in sticky blood.
Wen Shuying had been wandering with his sister for half a year; what kind of situations hadn’t he encountered?
But this time, he was trembling with fear, and his starry eyes turned a scarlet color on his dirty face.
Without saying a word, he immediately picked her up again and continued running forward.
Shutong had no choice but to hook her arm around his neck.
However, Wen Shuying was much more careful this time and didn’t fall much. After running for a while, a military truck came from the front, and the blinding lights made Wen Shuying stop.
With a loud rumble, the military truck stopped by the roadside. A man in his twenties in the passenger seat quickly got out and approached the brother and sister.
Cong Jun had noticed the ragged children from afar. The little girl on the boy’s back was barely breathing, and both their faces and bodies were covered in blood.
Upon closer inspection, Cong Jun noticed the wound on Shutong’s forehead.
“How did you get hurt? Where are your parents?”
When Wen Shuying saw Cong Jun approaching, he instinctively dodged away, staring at him warily.
He was terrified after being beaten today, and his sister was also implicated, so naturally, he felt fear and wariness toward these people in military uniforms.
“Don’t be afraid. Is she your sister? She needs medical attention. I’ll take you there.”
Cong Jun stood still, his stern face possessing a rugged and resolute quality that easily earned him the trust of others.
