Chapter 401: Car Accident
to say it.She was afraid that if she said it out loud, he would think she was greedy and refuse to agree to anything."I see," Lu Hanchuan replied lightly.A flicker of surprise crossed Fu Xiaoyao's eye..."The car seems to be broken," Liu Shu said uncertainly as he tried to start the car again.
After ten or so seconds, the car remained motionless. Liu Shu was certain now, he turned to Fu Xiaoyao and said, "Madam, the car seems broken. I'll go take a look."
"Good." Fu Xiaoyao nodded.
Uncle Liu went out the door.
Fu Xiaoyao sat in the car and waited. After about ten minutes, seeing that Uncle Liu hadn't come up, she couldn't help but get out of the car.
"Uncle Liu, are you alright"
Uncle Liu was checking the car parts. Hearing Fu Xiaoyao's question, he lifted his head from under the hood, "Not yet, the engine is broken."
"Can you fix it" Fu Xiaoyao came to his side and asked again.
Uncle Liu shook his head solemnly, "Without professional tools, it can't be fixed for now, Madam. We can only call a tow truck."
"Well then, you call him." Fu Xiaoyao smiled understandingly.
Liu Shu hummed and took out his phone to make a call.
After hanging up the phone, he bowed apologetically to Fu Xiaoyao, "Madam, I'll have to wait here for a tow truck. You..."
"It's fine, I can just take a taxi back myself." Fu Xiaoyao waved her hand dismissively.
Uncle Liu apologized again, "I'm really sorry, Madam."
"It's fine, then Uncle Liu, you wait here. I'll go first." Fu Xiaoyao smiled nonchalantly, took her bag out of the car, slung it over her shoulder, and walked towards the parking lot exit.
Exiting the building, she came face to face with a bus stop. Fu Xiaoyao glanced at the signboard, confirming which bus route she needed to take. She then fished her bag from her side and was about to reach for some money to pay the fare.
Suddenly, a figure darted out from the side, swiftly snatched her bag, and forcefully shoved her aside before running away.
Fu Xiaoyao was hit against the bus stop sign, her shoulder aching and her head feeling a bit dizzy.
But she didn't care about these things. After shaking her head twice, she shouted anxiously, "Help! Someone is robbing my bag!"
She called out as she ran forward.
While being chased, she didn't forget to ask passersby in front of her to help stop the snatcher or hold the police.
But unfortunately, no one helped.
Fu Xiaoyao couldn't help but feel deeply disappointed, but she didn't give up on herself. She mustered all her strength and chased after the bag snatcher.
When they reached a crosswalk, the purse snatcher suddenly dropped the bag on the sidewalk and dove into the crowd, vanishing quickly.
Fu Xiaoyao didn't know why the person suddenly did that. She didn't think much about it, just assuming that the person was worried about being caught up by her and sent to the police station, so they abandoned the bag halfway.
She thought to herself that the other party was sensible. Looking left and right, she saw no cars coming, so she walked onto the sidewalk to pick up the bag.
But just as she walked to her bag and bent down to pick it up, a black sedan parked at the intersection nearby suddenly honked its horn. The headlights came on, and then it sped towards her.
"Be careful!"
"Huh" Fu Xiaoyao hadn't realized what was happening before she felt a figure rush towards her, wrapping their arms around her and rolling to the ground with her. They landed in the roadside green belt.
Bang!
A loud roar.
The black sedan hit the guardrail of the greenbelt, breaking it apart. A section of the guardrail flew out and landed right beside Fu Xiaoyao.
Fu Xiaoyao was so frightened that she screamed, her eyes tightly closed, and her whole body trembled.
The man who had shielded her, saving her life, noticed. He looked down and saw her face so pale. His voice softened as he said, "It's alright, don't be afraid!"
Hearing that familiar voice, Fu Xiaoyao trembled and slowly opened her eyes, “Tang Yi”
"It's me!" Tang Yi got up from her and reached out a hand to pull her up.
After regaining her footing, Fu Xiaoyao was still shaken. "Just now... what happened"
“Just now a car was about to hit you, luckily I saw it in time, otherwise...” Tang Yi didn't finish his sentence, his handsome and enchanting face was covered with frost.
Fu Xiaoyao heard the sound of a car coming towards her and felt a jolt of fear. She swallowed nervously, "That just now... was..."
"Hmm." Tang Yi nodded, her gaze fixed ahead.
Fu Xiaoyao also followed her gaze. She saw that there were several circles of people gathered in front, and in the center of the crowd, a car with a smashed front end was parked there. Smoke was still billowing from the hood, and debris from the guardrail and windshield fragments was scattered all over the ground. It was evident that when the car hit it, it must have been traveling at a high speed, otherwise, such a severe collision would not have occurred.
I wonder how the people in the car are doing now...
Just as she was thinking, Fu Xiaoyao suddenly saw Tang Yichao's car drive past.
She reached out to call him, but the next second she suddenly thought of something, retracted her outstretched hand, and went to rummage through her bag.
After taking out her cell phone, she looked at her location and quickly called the police station to report.
After reporting the crime, she called the hospital and asked them to send an ambulance.
After finishing those, she put her phone back in her bag and hurried after Tang Yi.
When I found Tang Yi, he was standing in front of the car, opening the door.
Seeing this, Fu Xiaoyao's heart skipped a beat. She struggled through the crowd and walked to his side, "Tang Yi, what are you doing Don't move."
"I know my limits." Tang Yi reassured her with a glance, then, under her puzzled gaze, lifted the driver's head.
The driver was in a terrible state, covered in glass shards. His face was also slashed with numerous tiny cuts, leaving it completely bloody and quite horrifying to look at.
Fu XiaoYao glanced at it, and felt her heart skip a beat. She hurriedly looked away, not daring to look again.
"Is he okay Is he still alive" she asked carefully.
Tang Yi retracted his hand, took out a handkerchief from his pocket, and while wiping his fingers, replied, "He's not dead, the airbag saved his life. He's passed out right now."
"What were you just doing..."
"I want to see his face." Tang Yi narrowed his eyes, saying in a profound voice.
Fu Xiaoyao opened her mouth, "You mean, this wasn't an accident This driver... was he sent by someone"
She pointed at the driver, her voice trembling as she asked.
Tang Yi pursed her lips, "I'm just a little suspicious because when I saved you just now, I saw that the driver was indeed heading towards you. By the way, what were you doing standing on the crosswalk"
"That's how it was..." Fu Xiaoyao told everything that happened after she left the hospital.
Tang Yi clenched his jaw after hearing this, "It's too coincidental. That pickpocket seemed to intentionally lead you to the sidewalk so that this driver could hit you."
"Hearing you say it like that, it does seem that way." Fu Xiaoyao felt a chill run down her spine and couldn't help but rub her arms.
Tang Yi grinned at her, "But it's alright, I made it in time."
Fu Xiaoyao nodded, "Yes, thank you. If it weren't for you, I might really have... But how did you come here"
"Lu Hanchuan asked me to come and see what was going on, but Shao Sian was in surgery so I came out to make a phone call. Halfway through, I heard your voice... you were calling for help because someone was robbing you, so I rushed over. When I arrived, I saw just what happened." Tang Yi explained.
Fu Xiaoyao gave an understanding "Oh."
"By the way, did you call the police" Tang Yi pointed at the car behind him.
Fu Xiaoyao followed her glance, “It’s been reported. The police station has sent someone over, they should be here soon.”
"That's good then." Tang Yi lifted her chin.
Fu Xiaoyao bit her lip, her thoughts somewhat heavy, "Tang Yi, who do you think it could be Someone who wants my life"i Dongming out of that village, she had kept him in the hospital. She hadn't inquired about Qi Dongming's condition nor gone to see him.Even when Qi Dongming was creating the styling, he didn't.Now Sh...
