After Emily hung up, she received a message. It was still from Henry.
He wanted her to share her location on the phone, so that he could see where she was.
He was afraid that he couldn’t find her.
He was always so kind and sweet to her as if he was taking care of his daughter.
Sometimes, even Emily wondered why he treated her so well.
He broke up with his good friend and was beaten up heavily by Hunter.
However, he had never said anything beyond her boundary, never done anything out of line, and never put any pressure on her.
Looking at the two star markings on the map of her phone, she could imagine the scene of Henry anxiously walking towards her.
Emily smiled slightly. Life sometimes made people despair, but there would also be hope.
She put away her phone and was about to walk out of this dark place.
Suddenly, a few anxious shouts came from a nearby intersection, “Master! Master!”
It was as if someone had fallen to the ground, and the people around were anxious but didn’t know what to do.
The one lying on the ground seemed to be an old man …
Emily immediately stepped forward.
She walked quickly and the fierce pain on her legs made her sweat profusely.
With great difficulty, she suppressed the pain and continued to walk forward.
But before she could get close to the old man, she was stopped by two men in black suits.
“Stop! Don’t go this way!”
“What happened to the old man?” Emily’s gaze passed them and landed on the old man on the ground.
Through the light, she could see that the old man’s face was obviously flushed red. He rolled his eyes upwards. It was clear that he was unable to breathe!
“Quickly put him down!” Emily wanted to go over.
The two men still firmly stopped her and said, “We told you to take another path!”
“He can’t breathe. He choked! Quickly put him down!”
“You …”
“Send her over!” The man standing beside the old man looked over and said anxiously, “Are you a doctor?”
“I’m not.” Emily walked over, but they felt disappointed hearing this.
Emily didn’t want to argue with them. She said anxiously, “Don’t hold him like this. Let him sit up!”
The two men exchanged glances, not knowing whether to follow her words or not.
However, the doctors hadn’t arrived yet, and they had no other choices.
Emily immediately said, “I learned first aid. Quick! Help him sit up!”
This time, no one dared to say anything else.
They helped the old man up and let him sit on the ground.
Emily knelt down behind the old man. She bent her leg against the old man’s back. She hugged the old man’s chest with both of her hands.
After taking a deep breath, Emily suddenly pressed his chest heavily.
The old man was painful by her press, but her action didn’t seem to have any effect at all.
The old man’s face was still flushed red.
The man beside him was about to push Emily away, but Emily was not discouraged. She still hugged the old man’s chest and tried to press again.
This time, a little thing flew out of the old man’s mouth. In an instant, it disappeared.
“What’s going on?” Apart from the young man beside the old man, no one could clearly see what it was.
However, the old man gradually recovered after that thing came out.
