Chapter 837: Chapter 837: Seize Every Opportunity to Compliment Proactively

Suizi saw Yu Jingting covered in injuries and wished nothing more than to take his place.

However, Yu Jingting seemed utterly indifferent.

If Suizi hadn’t pulled him back, he would’ve even liked to join the firefighters in extinguishing the fire—he was particularly fascinated by the fire hoses.

The heart of this man housed a little boy, maintaining a high level of interest in all things unknown.

Suizi dragged him to the ambulance.

With the fire trucks and ambulances arriving, carrying out several severely injured, no one paid much attention to someone with minor injuries like Yu Jingting.

Suizi got some medicine and gauze from the medical staff and began to dress his wounds herself.

"Big brother!!"

The second brother led people over, and only when they saw Yu Jingting and his wife did they breathe a sigh of relief.

"Heard on the news that something happened at this hotel, scared us to death."

These brothers, upon hearing the news, rushed over in their slippers and shorts.

Only after confirming that Yu Jingting and his wife were unharmed could everyone rest easy.

"No idea what caused the fire; damn unlucky," Yu Jingting said, his own body injured but his eyes stayed only on Suizi’s palms.

His wife’s hands, white and flawless, which should be as perfect as works of art, now had two large blisters from sliding down the stairs.

"How painful must that be?" Yu Jingting caught Suizi’s hand and kept blowing on it.

The second brother and everyone else were speechless.

He was in this state, yet he still had the energy to worry about the two blisters on Suizi’s hand?

"Don’t move," said Suizi, pressing him down and carefully treating each of his wounds.

"Sister-in-law, how come you’re so skilled at this? I remember you studied accounting, not nursing, right?" asked the second brother.

"It’s all because of your big brother. Since we were little, he’s liked to play the hero; the number of times he’s been injured means I’ve gotten used to this."

It’s really all about brawling and inviting trouble.

In Suizi’s mouth, it turned into serving the public with "heroic deeds."

The second brother had heard a bit about Yu Jingting’s youthful exploits, and even Yu Jingting admitted that he used to be a street hoodlum; but Suizi spoke so earnestly, everyone was slightly confused—which version of their big brother was true?

"Your big brother has always had a warm heart, never refusing to help people in need. Back in our hometown, he’d already received several honors for his acts of bravery."

Suizi never missed an opportunity to sing her husband’s praises.

"Sister-in-law... are you really talking about big brother?"

"Of course! We still have a lot of his bravery certificates at home, and there are even newspaper articles about his deeds, all saved."

Indeed, the newspaper reports about him were written by her!

It wasn’t so much exaggerating as it was blustering with eyes closed.

"Today, he also displayed that spirit, saving quite a few people," Suizi said, looking up only to see the elderly couple.

The old couple, who knew how long they had been standing there listening, had complex expressions on their faces.

"You... do you often like to do good deeds?" the elderly man asked Yu Jingting, his face showing a look of disappointment.

Yu Jingting simply shrugged.

How was he supposed to answer that question... Could he say that his wife was particularly addicted to idolizing and embellishing his image?

"This shouldn’t be... How could you like to do good deeds?" murmured the old man to himself, circling behind Yu Jingting and staring at the heart-shaped birthmark on his back, reaching out to touch it.

Yu Jingting abruptly stood up and backed away a couple of steps, his skin crawling.

The curses that were on the tip of his tongue, upon seeing Suizi, he swallowed them back down.

This old man must be sick, right? Coming up and touching a stranger?

"Old sir, do you need some medicine?" Suizi also felt that the old man’s gaze when looking at Yu Jingting was off.

She stood up cautiously, positioning herself in front of Yu Jingting.

She didn’t know what the elder’s intention was, but she sharply sensed that something was amiss.

"I don’t need any medicine, I just want to ask—this young man who saved me, what’s your name?"

"This is our eldest brother, Yu Jingting. What about it, old sir, you also want to write a letter of commendation to praise him for his heroic act?" The third brother spoke quickly and bluntly.

The elder’s eyes brightened a bit more upon hearing the surname Yu.

"Surname Yu, Yu, good, really good..."

This strange reaction made Suizi and her husband exchange a glance—could this old man be a psychopath?

Recalling how the old man had been speaking all sorts of odd things just now, Suizi’s vigilance towards him increased.

Without showing any change in her demeanor as she stood in front of Yu Jingting, it had not been easy for her man to come out of the Sea of Fire, and she didn’t want him to be scratched by a psychopath.

Contrasting with the old man’s response was the woman by his side.

The woman appeared to be in her thirties, with a curvaceous figure like a large gourd, dressed in a body-hugging dress. In the comparatively modest mainland, her dress was indeed eye-catching.

But more striking than her bold attire was the way she looked at Yu Jingting—full of hostility, an aversion so clear even Suizi could see it.

"Chairman!" Several men wearing black suits rushed over, sweating profusely.

"Chairman, are you all right?" the leader of the men in black inquired of the elder.

The elder’s gaze remained on Yu Jingting, and upon seeing this, the buxom woman hurriedly put her hands on her hips and scolded.

"My honey has been agitated, hurry and take him to the hospital!" After saying this, she went to hook the elder’s arm.

Only then did the old man withdraw his gaze from Yu Jingting and leave with these people. After walking a few steps, he still paused to look back at Yu Jingting.

Yu Jingting felt so uncomfortable that he rubbed his arms.

"Where did this old lunatic come from, giving me the creeps. If I’d known, I wouldn’t have saved him."

"This old man looks kind of familiar though..." The usually silent fourth brother rubbed his chin, trying to recall.

"Ah! I remember now, isn’t that the chairman of Tianlong Group from Hong Kong? I’ve seen his interview in a magazine!"

There were many merchants from Hong Kong and Taiwan here, and the fourth brother was talking about magazines brought over from there.

The standards over there were quite liberal; the newspapers and magazines were very interesting to read, featuring rivalries between business associations and corporations, making them more fascinating than martial arts thrillers.

"Tianlong Group, they have connections in the underworld, you know. It’s said that the founder is a tough character, oh, that’s right, he shares the same surname as our eldest brother! What was his name?"

The fourth brother couldn’t quite recall at the moment and felt a bit annoyed.

"Eldest brother, the old man you saved has such a formidable background, he ought to thank us in some way, shouldn’t he? To just leave like that without even offering some fruit or pastries in gratitude."

The second brother kicked him.

"Do you think our eldest brother is a beggar? He doesn’t care for that stuff. But brother, I am quite curious as to why you suddenly thought to rescue someone."

He didn’t believe a word about the "be kind and do good deeds" credo that his sister-in-law talked about.

"Heh, I did it because I wanted to, what’s with all the nonsense," Yu Jingting said, pocketing his hand with a single motion, not wanting to explain.

Suizi’s gaze met Que Wuyu’s not far away, and a realization suddenly dawned on her; could it be that Jingting rescued someone because of him?

No, to be precise, he rescued someone because of the promise he made to Suizi.

Thinking of this, Suizi’s heart softened to a mess. She hugged Yu Jingting’s neck and asked with a tearful voice.
