Chapter 29: Taking On His Problems
The motorcycle sped ahead, while the taxi followed closely behind.
Their riding skills were impressive, with flashy maneuvers, and their routes were daring.
In the three parallel lanes, they turned left and separated, entering a two-way road. Zhou Chi took advantage of the small size of his motorcycle and weaved through the traffic. Shen Wan, following from behind, clenched her teeth as she watched!
This person is insane! historical
Deliberately seeking death!
Honk—honk—
She repeatedly honked the horn, signaling Zhou Chi to stop, but unfortunately, it had no effect.
Just at that moment, a large truck sped towards them from the opposite direction, and Shen Wan's eyes widened in anger.
The motorcycle's owner, hindered by a blind spot in their vision, didn't notice the impending danger. He even planned to ride in the center of the lane, unwittingly stepping into a trap!
At the critical moment, a taxi suddenly swerved out and collided at an even faster speed—
Bang!
A loud noise!
Shen Wan estimated the angle, jerked the steering wheel to the right, and pulled the handbrake. The car drifted sideways, narrowly avoiding the truck that couldn't stop in time.
The front windshield shattered, and the car's front end was left in ruins. However, the only solace was that the car finally came to a stop.
Shen Wan lay on the steering wheel, warm liquid trickling down her cheeks, winding to her lips, and flowing into her mouth.
The strong taste of rust spread instantly on her tongue.
The moment before she blacked out, she saw Zhou Chi's panicked and bewildered face. She tried to say something but ended up in vain. She could only let herself fall into the boundless darkness.
At the same time, on the same road segment, inside a black Mercedes.
"What's going on?" The man who had been pretending to doze off suddenly spoke.
Ling Yun was taken aback, scratching his head. "Sixth Lord, you're not asleep?"
The man's eyes opened suddenly, his deep pupils resembling polished obsidian, glinting with fierceness.
"There seems to be an accident ahead, and the road is blocked..." Ling Yun swallowed nervously. "What should we do?"
"Call Third Lord, he will send people to handle it."
"Oh."
Shen Wan had a very strange dream.
In the dream, she found herself in a solitary tug-of-war contest. The surroundings were enveloped in thick fog, making it impossible to discern her opponent's face. Her sole conviction was to clutch the rope firmly, channeling all her might into pulling with unwavering determination!
She had a strong premonition that if she let go, what awaited her would be an irreversible catastrophe!
"You're awake?!"
Staring at the ceiling, Shen Wan heard a voice. Her eyes rolled, and her gaze shifted to the side.
The surprised face of a young man came into view, as if from another world.
"Zhou... Chi?" Her throat felt dry, and her speech was unsteady.
"Yes, it's me! How do you feel? Dizzy? Nauseous?"
"Water."
"Water? Alright, I'll get it for you!"
Zhou Chi rushed around, nearly knocking over the glass but fortunately avoiding any accidents. Finally, he brought a straw to Shen Wan's lips.
She sipped gently, the warm liquid sliding down her throat, relieving the dryness.
After finishing the cup, Zhou Chi asked, "Do you want more?"
Shen Wan shook her head.
He placed the cup down and whispered, "The doctor conducted a comprehensive examination. Your bones and internal organs are in good condition, but there are some abrasions on your skin that could become infected. Additionally, you have a cut on your left forehead from the glass, and the impact resulted in a minor concussion..."
In general, there were no life-threatening injuries, but there were several minor injuries.
"... I'm sorry, all of this is..."
"How long did I sleep?" Shen Wan interrupted him.
Zhou Chi pursed his lips, his voice muffled. "Three hours."
"What time is it now?"
"Quarter past nine in the evening."
Shen Wan furrowed her brow and fumbled around under the blanket.
"What are you looking for?"
"My bag."
"It's right here." Zhou Chi handed it to her.
She didn't take it, only saying, "Take out my phone."
Zhou Chi complied. Surrounded by deep guilt and post-accident fear, he would even sacrifice his life if Shen Wan asked him to.
