The person on the ground seemed stunned by the beating, with arms curled and head covered, showing no reaction for a while.
Ling Chengyan wanted to squat down to check on the other person, but just as she reached out, the person slowly removed their arms, revealing a face covered in bruises.
"Ling Chengyan?"
"Master Zhou!"
Both spoke out almost simultaneously.
Ling Chengyan was completely shocked to find that the person beaten on the ground was actually her old driving instructor, Zhou Guoqing, nicknamed Zhou "Big Donkey".
She remembered that Zhou Guoqing was from Ji Province and had returned home with a job arranged after demobilization. How come he was now not only in the capital of Eastern Province but had also become a laborer waiting for odd jobs?
Ling Chengyan asked Fu Qiang to stay behind to deal with the hooligans who beat him, while she took Zhou Guoqing to the hospital to treat his injuries.
