Ji Zixuan did not drink much water on the road, so he did not feel like peeing.
While Ji Yuanyuan went to the bathroom, he waited outside.
It was too stuffy in the car, so he stood beside the car to get some fresh air.
In order for Ji Yuanyuan to walk less, the car was parked not far from the entrance of the service area.
Suddenly, there was a thud in the service area, followed by the screams of the crowd.
Ji Zixuan’s outstretched arm froze in mid-air.
Then, he turned around and ran inside quickly.
Although he did not know what had happened, his sister was still inside.
There was an accident inside, and the crowd was pushing out. Ji Zixuan had difficulty moving against the flow of people.
In order to prevent himself from being squeezed out by the crowd, he clung to the door frame desperately.
When most of the crowd had left, he was finally able to enter.
He looked around and realized that the accident had happened in the middle of the hall.
The woman lying on the ground was wearing the same color scheme as Ji
Yuanyuan.
Ji Zixuan’s heart tightened as he took a few steps forward.
When he reached her, his face paled.
The person lying on the ground was Ji Yuanyuan.
Her eyes were closed, and blood was flowing out of her head.
There were staff members and enthusiastic onlookers who were calling for an ambulance.
A mother and son were squatting in the corner.
The woman trembled as she hugged her son.
Next to the mother and son was a shattered crystal lamp.
Just now, her son had broken free from her hand and was skipping in front of
her.
When the light above her head fell, she did not have time to go forward.
It was the woman lying on the ground who had quickly picked up her son so that he was not hit.
The situation was urgent, and the crowd immediately panicked.
In addition, her son was so frightened that he struggled. The woman lost her balance and knocked her head on the table beside her.
Fortunately, the woman had covered her son with a cushion when she fell, so he did not fall.
Ever since Ji Yuanyuan started the return journey, Qin Mucheng felt uneasy.
Sitting in the office, his eyes were clearly staring at the doc.u.ments in front of him.
However, as he looked on, his thoughts drifted away.
After some thought, Qin Mucheng sent Ji Yuanyuan a WeChat message. “What
time will you be home?”
After sending it, Qin Mucheng smiled bitterly.
Speaking of which, this was the first time Yuanyuan had gone out alone since they got married.
Although she was already an adult and had the ability to take care of herself.
But in his heart, she seemed always to be that little girl.
Ji Yuanyuan did not reply even after more than ten minutes.
Although he knew that Ji Yuanyuan might be driving and it would not be convenient for her to reply to his message.
However, Qin Mucheng could not help but feel a little upset when he did not receive a reply.
He raised his hand to take a look. It was almost four-thirty.
Yuanyuan and Big Brother were already halfway there.
They would be home in about an hour.
He simply packed his things and planned to wait at home.
Anyway, his mind was not on work anymore. There was no point in staying in the company.
After he was done packing, he called Ji Zixuan while he was downstairs.
Yuanyuan did not reply to her message. She was most likely driving.
If Ji Zixuan was free, he could pick up the call.
Strangely enough, Ji Zixuan did not pick up either.
Qin Mucheng’s heart was in a mess. His hand that was pressing the elevator b.u.t.ton was trembling.
The signal in the elevator was unstable, so Qin Mucheng called Ji Zixuan a second time after they got down.
This time, he simply picked it up.
“Big Brother…” Qin Mucheng said.
Then, he heard some noise. “Are you the patient’s family? Hurry up and get in
the car.”
“It’s me.” It was Ji Zixuan.
Qin Mucheng’s body froze.
‘■Ji Zixuan, what happened?” he asked in disbelief. “Ji Zixuan, what happened? What happened to Yuanyuan?”
He was too afraid even to call him big brother and directly called Ji Zixuan’s name.
Ji Zixuan did not seem to hear Qin Mucheng’s words.
Qin Mucheng could vaguely hear him asking, “How is my sister? Was her injury serious? Will her life be in danger?”
Qin Mucheng did not hear what the doctor said.
“Ji Zixuan!” Qin Mucheng shouted anxiously.
Ji Zixuan finally came back to his senses. He realized that he was still on the phone with Qin Mucheng.
He quickly picked up the phone and put it to his ear. “Yuanyuan was injured while saving a child. She hit her head and is now unconscious. Hurry up and come over. We’re going to…”
He was stunned for a moment. He took out his phone and asked the doctors and nurses in the car, “May I ask which hospital we’re going to?” They were in the service area, which was far from B City. Naturally, they would go to whichever city was closer.
“J County People’s Hospital.” The nurse said.
He repeated the location over the phone.
“Got it. I’ll go now,” Qin Mucheng said hoa.r.s.ely.
After hanging up, he took out his car keys and got into the car.
His hands kept shaking, and when the car drove out of the parking lot, it almost hit the wall beside it.
He slammed on the brakes.
He leaned on the steering wheel, trying to calm himself down.
However, he could not calm down at all.
His hands trembled even more violently.
Behind them, there was a car that was about to pa.s.s by. When they saw that Qin Mucheng’s car had not moved for a long time, they could not wait any longer and honked the horn.
Qin Mucheng took a deep breath and exhaled. After the palpitations subsided, he took out his phone with trembling hands and called Qin Haowen.
The car behind could not wait any longer. The owner got out of the car and went to Qin Mucheng’s car.
The owner of the car was a tall and fat man with a tattoo on the back of his hand.
He knocked on Qin Mucheng’s car window impatiently. “If you don’t leave, can you make way?”
Qin Mucheng did not seem to hear what the people outside were saying.
“Dad,” he said to Qin Haowen in a hoa.r.s.e voice, “Ask the driver to look for me in the garage. I need to go somewhere.
Qin Haowen didn’t suspect anything. “Alright, I’ll get him to leave now.” “What’s that?” Qin Haowen asked curiously. “What’s that sound?” It was the sound of the car owner knocking on the car window.
He was already frustrated when he was blocked. Seeing that Qin Mucheng was ignoring him, he became visibly irritable.
“Don’t think you’re so great just because you drive a luxury car. Do you think this building belongs to you? Why are you being so arrogant? Do you believe that I will record it and post it online? Come out and apologize…
Even though the chatter outside was incessant, Qin Mucheng did not move. -It’s fine,” he whispered. “Ask him to come down as soon as possible.”
With that, he hung up the phone.
His heart was in a mess. He didn’t want to talk or explain.
He just wanted to see Yuanyuan as soon as possible.
However, he was not in the right state to drive. He needed a driver.
When the man outside saw that Qin Mucheng did not speak, he became more and more irritable.
When the driver, Xiao Wu, got out of the car, the man had already taken out a baseball bat from the trunk and was ready to smash Qin Mucheng’s car.
Xiao Wu hurried forward and smiled apologetically. “I’m sorry, I’m sorry. My boss is in a bad mood today.. Please forgive me…”
