Chapter 35: Chapter 35 Yu Jianhua: This kid has really impressed me!

On the roadside, people were also stunned by the scene.

No one expected that in such a dangerous moment, a young man dared to rush out and rescue the car owner before the vehicle exploded.

That moment was extremely perilous; if the young man had been even a little late, the car would have exploded, not only engulfing the owner in flames but also impacting the young man. People could roughly guess the consequences.

"That guy’s got guts!"

One man shouted excitedly.

Then, more people cheered and applauded.

"Xu Lin, you’re too bold!"

Lei Haolong had watched in shock, nearly thinking his best friend would meet trouble.

He didn’t dare approach at all, just like most people. Who would dare go closer?

But as the saying goes, courage is humanity’s greatest anthem, yet not everyone dares to draw their sword against injustice or lend a hand.

After all, most of us are ordinary people, with families behind us.

And Lei Haolong was just an eighteen-year-old, he was utterly intimidated.

Lei Haolong genuinely admired Xu Lin because Xu Lin nearly risked his life, while he himself, even given more courage, wouldn’t dare step up.

At that moment, Xu Lin placed the unconscious pregnant woman on a chair outside the shop.

"Call an ambulance, she’s pregnant, not sure if the crash affected the baby."

"Got it!"

Lei Haolong quickly dialed for an ambulance.

Actually, someone had already called 110 and 120 earlier.

The ambulance arrived promptly.

Xu Lin and the others boarded the ambulance, taking the pregnant woman to the hospital.

As for the woman’s family, they were still unaware.

And just under a minute after Xu Lin and the others left, Uncle Hat arrived first on the scene to handle the issues.

The pregnant woman’s car had already exploded.

The sports car driver, the one responsible for the crash, was gone on the spot.

There was a girl in the passenger seat who had also fainted from the impact. Upon waking, she learned the driver was a twenty-year-old rich kid, who ran red lights, collided with another car, causing a major accident, and without a seatbelt, was flung out, dying instantly outside, quite tragic indeed.

"Where’s the owner of the crashed vehicle?"

Uncle Hat asked the crowd.

After some inquiry, he learned a young man emerged at a critical moment and rescued the owner inside.

Bystanders showed Uncle Hat the captured videos, with multiple angles.

"This lad’s really brave!"

Uncle Hat couldn’t help but give Xu Lin a thumbs up.

Meanwhile, Xu Lin and the others soon arrived at the hospital, and the pregnant woman, after examination, had no issues, just fainted from the crash impact.

Not long after arriving at the hospital, the pregnant woman woke up.

"Sister, are you feeling any discomfort?"

Yu Xinyan asked her.

Sitting on the bed, holding her seven-month belly, the pregnant woman was still anxious.

"I’m fine."

She shook her head, looking at Xu Lin drinking water.

"Thank you, classmate!"

The pregnant woman smiled knowingly; before fainting earlier, she vaguely saw Xu Lin’s figure pulling open the car door and carrying her out.

Such a life-saving favor, incomparable indeed.

This moment left her shaken, hearing about the car explosion; she nearly perished with her baby, forever separated from her family in the fiery abyss.

Xu Lin said it was nothing, and asked, "Where’s your family? Have you contacted them?"

"Almost forgot, can I borrow your phone?"

Her phone was left in the car, buried in the flames.

"Here."

Xu Lin handed her the phone, allowing her to call her family.

Over the phone, the pregnant woman’s family seemed quite anxious too.

She made two calls, corresponding to two families, one maternal, one marital.

Xu Lin observed the woman; she was very pretty, though not as striking as Yu Xinyan, her aura was prominent and had a hint of elegance, perhaps a wealthy family’s daughter-in-law, or maybe her family was wealthy.

Overall, she wasn’t ordinary.

"Classmate, what’s your name?"

"Xu Lin, handsome like a jade tree in the wind."

They didn’t stay long before leaving, but left a phone number.

Xu Lin felt there was no point in staying around; her family would come soon.

By then, it’d be endless gratitude, but Xu Lin found it dull; he’d rather go out.

He had a bun and a glass of soy milk for breakfast, planning a feast once Yu Xinyan got her license, unexpectedly encountering this incident.

Speaking of saving people.

Xu Lin believed he saved people with a purpose, so didn’t feel the need to say more.

Though, gentlemanly actions are about deeds, not intentions.

Xu Lin glanced at the panel.

At the moment, the panel showed he gained a random skill and a special item.

Random Skill: Singing Proficiency?

What’s the use?

Xu Lin mused about not joining the entertainment industry or becoming an online singing sensation.

Special Item: Immunity Buff.

This buff was impressive; while active, he could live a lifetime without illness, not any disease would affect him, allowing his body freedom.

Thus, rescuing someone, Xu Lin still felt quite thrilled.

"Xu Lin, you were truly brave today!"

Yu Xinyan said upon leaving the hospital.

Xu Lin: "Just lending a hand."

"But you nearly got into trouble. Don’t do this again!"

Yu Xinyan advised firmly, "Always protect yourself first!"

"Okay!"

Xu Lin nodded.

"Xu Lin, you’re impressively badass; let people view you differently!"

Lei Haolong patted Xu Lin’s shoulder, giving him a thumbs up.

Xu Lin: "Bastard, you’ll need to change your view often!"

"Oops!"

"By the way!"

Lei Haolong suddenly thought, "Xu Lin, this is a righteous act, you can apply for recognition!"

"What’s the use of applying?"

Xu Lin asked.

"I don’t really know."

Lei Haolong shook his head.

Yu Xinyan, however, excitedly said, "Xu Lin, I told my dad; he’ll help apply for you!"

Yu Jianhua used to be the head of the division Xu Lin and they were in, then got promoted.

But Yu Jianhua knew many people.

Buzzzzz...

Immediately, Yu Xinyan sent a message to Yu Jianhua, and shortly after, his call came.

"Dad."

"Let that guy take the call."

"Xu Lin, my dad wants to talk to you."

"Uncle, what’s up?"

"Did you act righteously?"

Xu Lin briefly described what happened.

Yu Jianhua paused for a moment: "Kid, you’re so brave?"

In Yu Jianhua’s mind, Xu Lin was always seen as an unreliable troublemaker.

Xu Lin: "Bastard, cut the crap, help me apply for recognition!"

Yu Jianhua wanted to go over and hit him: "Lucky you’re not my kid; otherwise, I’d cut off your allowance and you’d behave, and you dare call me ’Bastard’!"

Others acted polite or downright subservient, only Xu Lin, since middle school, behaved this way.

Xu Lin: "Uncle, I really was brave today; if you don’t believe me, check Jiangbei District."

Yu Jianhua hung up, asking his subordinates: "Was there an accident in Jiangbei District today?"

"Let me check... yes, quite tragic; a supercar hit a Panamera, the supercar driver hit a tree afterward, was flung out dying instantly, while the Panamera caught fire and exploded; but before that, a young man pulled out the owner, who was pregnant, averting a double tragedy."

The subordinate reported, also opening video software.

Turns out there’s already a local viral video.

Yu Jianhua watched the video, seeing the seemingly reckless young man.

Wasn’t that Xu Lin?

"This kid really that brave?"

Yu Jianhua found it hard to believe.

Truth be told, watching the explosion in the video, Yu Jianhua didn’t feel he could do the same.

Yu Jianhua was bold in his youth, fearless, daring, earning many achievements, and recognized by leaders; he rose quickly, with potential for further promotion at forty, in his prime.

Imagining himself at the scene, Yu Jianhua wondered if he’d dare step in?

He pondered long, aligning with his true feelings, he felt he might hesitate.

Because he had family responsibilities, a happy life, what if something happened?

"No, perhaps I could step in myself."

"I too have responsibilities on my shoulders."

"This kid definitely made me see him differently!"
