His arm had just moved away from Shen Manbing’s neck.
But the man seemed to react, yelling, “You lied to me, she would never agree!”
After saying that, he instantly grabbed Shen Manbing’s hand again.
At that moment, Gu Qichen stepped forward and knocked the gun out of the thug’s hand.
The thug slipped and fell backward.
Unfortunately, he grabbed hold of Shen Manbing’s skirt.
Shen Manbing was pulled by the force and fell backward directly.
Gu Qichen acted quickly, lunging to catch Shen Manbing.
The thug had already fallen straight down from the top of the Times Building, disappearing from sight.
Shen Manbing’s body was hanging off the roof.
Gu Qichen, lying on the ground, barely managed to hold onto her hand.
But his body was moving forward rapidly due to gravity.
The upper half of his body had already reached the edge of the roof.
Xia Yangyang, who had been standing motionless on the side, rushed over and grabbed one of Gu Qichen’s legs, shouting, “Hurry up.”
The crowd surged forward, pulling the two of them back up.
No one had expected things to turn out this way.
This had been a truly terrifying moment.
After Shen Manbing was pulled back up, she was stunned.
The normally pompous and domineering her was trembling.
She had just witnessed the thug fall hundreds of meters from the building, smashing his body to pieces.
At this time, the assistants and staff members all gathered around, talking over each other, showing their concern.
“Sister Bingbing, are you okay? We were so worried.”
“What doesn’t kill you makes you stronger, Sister Bingbing. It’s all over now, everything will get better.”
While everyone was busy comforting her,
Gu Qichen was patting Shen Manbing’s shoulder, “Bingbing, talk to me, look at me, look at me!”
Gu Qichen’s voice was stern, like an order, yet obviously laced with worry.
Seemingly triggered by some past memory, Shen Manbing suddenly screamed, “Get away! Get out! All of you get out!”
She wrapped her arms around her head and began to scream, grabbing her own hair, like a woman gone mad.
Many people didn’t know what was happening.
Even though she was safe, what had happened to her?
Gu Qichen promptly picked up Shen Manbing.
She held onto his collar like a drowning person clutching a piece of driftwood, shivering in his arms.
Ruian Hospital—
Xia Yangyang and Gu Qichen stood outside the ward.
Inside, several nurses were holding Shen Manbing’s hands, restraining her while the doctor administered a sedative.
The image of Shen Manbing, mad with fear, stayed in Xia Yangyang’s mind.
The kind of fear that made her feel like the entire world was her enemy, hiding in a corner, refusing to let anyone close.
It was clearly a mental illness, not just a reaction to the recent trauma.
They were in the neurology department now.
Shen Manbing was finally quiet, as if she had fallen asleep on the bed.
Deeply shocked, Xia Yangyang finally asked Gu Qichen, who was standing beside her, “Why did she suddenly react like this?”
Gu Qichen fell silent for a while before he finally said, “When she was a child, she was maliciously pushed off a roof. She fell into a swimming pool below and nearly drowned. It was a traumatic experience for her and today’s events probably triggered her most painful memories. That’s why she reacted that way.”
Xia Yangyang was taken aback. She had no idea that Shen Manbing had undergone such a terrible experience when she was a child.
