Chapter 735: Pseudo-Truths 5
Xia Yinian reacted quickly, much to everyone’s surprise.But Yu Wanqing was too close to her, and despite her quick reaction, she couldn’t prevent the tragedy from happening.
With a scream, Yu Wanqing threw herself at Xia Yinian.
To everyone else, it seemed like she merely fell by accident and bumped into Xia Yinian.
However, Xia Yinian herself felt that besides the weight coming at her, Yu Wanqing also pushed her forcefully.
Being forcefully pushed by Yu Wanqing, her body immediately fell backward.
The soreness in her waist instantly spread throughout her body, and it was too late for Xia Yinian to take a step back to stabilize herself.
Knowing that falling at this angle would definitely cause a second injury to her lower back, there was nothing she could do.
Seeing the man in front extend his large hand, Xia Yinian thought she saw hope...
The large hand extended by Gu Beicheng was taken by Yu Wanqing, and his gaze merely swept over Xia Yinian’s face and then he took no further action.
Xia Yinian’s heart tightened dramatically, feeling the pain in her heart was even more severe than the impending pain in her waist.
It turned out his intervention was to save Yu Wanqing, but now she really couldn’t save herself.
Her waist was in so much pain...
Just when she thought her lower back would hit the steps, her falling body suddenly stopped, and the imagined pain didn’t occur.
"Nian Nian, are you okay?" Yu Wanqing asked anxiously.
In fact, she was somewhat discontent with the appearance of Feng Yan.
Why not let this wretched girl fall down? And why did she get the handsome Third Young Master Feng to support her?
Feeling the man beside her starting to walk away, Yu Wanqing left a comment, forcefully clinging to Gu Beicheng’s arm, and continued forward.
"It’s good you’re fine, truly sorry!"
Xia Yinian had no time to pay attention to Yu Wanqing; she had been scared out of her wits just now.
Had she not been injured, given Yu Wanqing’s deliberate push, she would definitely have pushed this woman down the steps.
Looking up at the man hugging her, Xia Yinian took a deep breath and whispered, "Thank you!"
"How are you feeling? Can you walk by yourself?" Feng Yan asked gently.
Xia Yinian nodded and straightened her body.
"I can manage on my own."
As she turned around, the two people stuck together had already walked up, acting as if nothing had happened just now.
But, this vengeance, Xia Yinian noted it.
Feng Yan didn’t completely let her go but instead held her arm with one hand.
"Take it slow, no rush."
Xia Yinian still nodded, not refusing, and even leaned a bit of her weight on his strong, supportive arm.
Her lower back really hurt, much more than when she had arrived.
If it weren’t for Feng Yan, she would have had a terrible fall.
Despite the little incident earlier, nobody said much.
Although some disliked Yu Wanqing and thought she did it on purpose, apart from Yuan Yaying, there weren’t many who favored Xia Yinian.
The guests for the ribbon-cutting had all taken their places.
The area below the stage was immediately crowded.
There were employees from the Cosmetic Group, successful individuals from various fields who came to offer congratulations, and reporters from various media.
Once the people who were supposed to be on stage were there, they surged forward from all directions.
The ribbon-cutting ceremony officially began, with Seventh Young Master and Third Young Master standing in the center.
Today, having the chance to witness these two exceptionally outstanding men together, many felt it was the blessing of several lifetimes.
Their handsomeness was beyond description with mere words; it was something celestial and unparalleled on earth.
