Chapter 478: Fall Into a Ditch (2)

“So, are you and Yunfan safe now? Where are you guys? Did you get injured? Is it serious? Did you call an ambulance?”

When they heard An Yue say this, their expression changed. Han Yi Chen’s expression grew dark. He quietly walked over to An Yue’s side and held her hand tightly. The moment he touched her hand, he felt that it was cold just as he had expected.

An Yue clenched Han Yichen’s hand and fell silent for a few seconds. Apparently, the person on the other end of the line sensed her anxiety as well and quickly explained things to her.

After An Yue finished hearing the opposite party’s explanation, her complexion looked slightly better. She heaved a sigh and said in a low voice, “Alright. I will. The banquet is about to end soon. Okay, I will talk to them. An Qi, you could wait at a place with Yunfan. Chen and I will be there in a while. Right, that’s all.”

When the people standing at the side saw An Yue’s expression changing from initial shock and fear to relief and delight, they wanted to snap in but were afraid that they might disturb her.

When An Yue finally hung up, Duan Yarong could no longer hold herself back and asked, “Yue Yue, did something happen to your older sister on the road?”

An Yue was still caught in the middle of the lingering fear. Upon hearing Duan Yarong’s sudden question, a hint of embarrassment showed up on her face. She said awkwardly, “Urm.. An Qi told me.. Yunfan accidentally drove his car into a ditch. They are still waiting for the tow truck driver to come. As such, they might not be able to come over today and would like me to apologize to all of you on her behalf. Sorry.”

The crowd fell speechless.

“Nie Yunfan’s car accidentally drove his car into a ditch?” It took Zhao Youlin some time before she finally caught the main point from An Yue’s words. The corners of her lips twitched. In fact, everyone had the same question as her in their hearts..

An Yue laughed dryly and embarrassedly before she mumbled, “Y-Y-Yes.. An Qi said it’s drizzling and the road is slippery. Besides, they are taking mountain roads and water is accumulated on the road. The street light on the mountain is not too clear. Yunfan was anxious to rush over here. Therefore, he sped up and failed to notice the puddles on the ground. As a result, the wheels skidded and the car crashed into the side of the grove. The entire car was planted into the river and cannot come out. So.. urm..”

Upon reaching the end of her words, An Yue also felt a bit embarrassed. She looked down and dared not face the crowd’s dumbfounded look.

Generally speaking, most people’s first reaction was shock and nervousness the moment they learned that their friends had a car accident. However, after the crowd heard An Yue’s explanation, they only felt shocked and could not get worked up at all.

It was not entirely because of An Yue’s expression before she had hung up which had fully explained the situation that the “perpetrator” was safe and sound, but it was because they did not know if they should laugh or cry when they heard the absurd cause of the car crash.

Perhaps, Nie Yunfan was the only one who could drive his car into a ditch all of a sudden.

Duan Yarong and the rest of her group were struck dumb upon learning how unreliable Nie Yunfan was. This was especially so for Duan Yarong and Zhao Shunrong. They subconsciously exchanged gazes. The same message was communicated tacitly through their gazes.

The young master of the Nie family looked like a reliable gentleman. However, the fact was he was not reliable at all. Indeed, they should not judge a book by its cover.

Meanwhile, the former master thought that the young master of the Nie family shared the same traits as his uncle. Indeed, like uncle, like nephew!

Upon seeing that Duan Yarong and the rest of her group did not react much after hearing her words, An Yue thought that the crowd had taken the incident to heart so she hurriedly said, “Mother, An Qi did not do it on purpose. When she called me, she told me they are at a secluded place and that her mobile phone went into the water with the car. As such, there was no way to call for help or inform us. They waited for a long time before they managed to stop a car that happened to pass by and borrowed a handphone to call us. Mother, don’t be angry. An Qi really didn’t mean it.”

An Yue’s anxious explanation snapped the crowd out of their dazes. Seeing An Yue’s nervous look, Duan Yarong immediately understood her concern. She walked forward and held An Yue’s hand as she said, “We’re not angry with them. After all, they also can’t help it. It doesn’t matter if they cannot make it. Most importantly, they are still safe and sound. We’re about to become a family and we would be able to see each other very often. Therefore, there’s no hurry to meet up today. The main purpose of asking your older sister to come over today was to let her be the witness for your engagement with Chen as well as discuss wedding issues. Since she could not make it today, we could meet another day. Speaking of this, are you sure they are fine? Do they need any help?”

“An Qi sounded fine when she talked to me just now. They should be okay. However, it’s best that Chen and I go over to pick them up. An Qi told me that they have already contacted the tow truck company. Since the banquet is ending soon, Chen and I would go over to them in a while and pick them up.”

“Just go, then. After all, most of the guests have left. Youlin and I could handle the rest.” Upon hearing this, Duan Yarong urged Han Yichen and An Yue to go and pick them up soon.

Zhao Youlin did not have any qualms about this. It was best to go there since it was still early at this hour. After all, An Qi and Nie Yunfan were all alone in the wilderness and if they arrived late, Nie Yunfan might do something outrageous again.

However, unbeknownst to Zhao Youlin, while the two were spending time alone with each other, instead of Nie Yunfan, An Qi was the one who did something outrageous.

After An Qi returned the mobile phone to the shocked car owner whose cell phone had been “robbed of” and watched the man drive his car away, An Qi’s pent-up anger finally exploded.

“Darn it! Do you know how to drive?! Do you know how to drive a car?! If you don’t, why did you still act cool and speed up on the mountain road?! You don’t want to live too long, do you?! If you want to go to hell, go ahead! Don’t drag me down! You think you are rich and that makes you great, huh?! You think you have good looks and everyone has to put up with you, huh?! Let me tell you, what I hate the most in my life is that you smug, rich people do not take lives seriously just because you think you are filthy rich! Out of boredom, you always seek excitement and often put others’ lives at stake. This type of people are simply the scum of society and arseholes of the country!”

After An Qi scolded him in a single breath, she still had not had enough of it. She sucked in a deep breath and continued, “I was so stupid to have let you pick me up today! Had I known that you are so unreliable, I might have just called a cab as well!”

Nie Yunfan had never thought that there came a day where he would be scolded this badly by someone. He was dumbfounded as he was being cussed right in the face. By the time he snapped out of his daze, his expression had turned dark and he shouted, “Butch, have you had enough of it?!”
