Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
When they arrived at the scene of the accident, there were already a lot of people standing around and watching. Mei Xiaoyue was almost completely surrounded.
The old man’s hand was scratched. Mei Xiaoyue told him to go to the hospital for a check-up, but the old man’s family was trying their best to stop Mei Xiaoyue. They were talking about compensation. Mei Xiaoyue had never encountered such an incident before. Now that she was dealing with it, she was naturally a little fl.u.s.tered.
“What else is there to talk about? It’s fine if you want to settle this privately. 10,000 Yuan, or else this won’t be over.”
“It’s not that I won’t pay the compensation, but shouldn’t we send him to the hospital for a look first? I’ll pay every cent that should be paid.”
Mei Xiaoyue was not stupid. At this juncture, it should be better to do this.
However, as she said this, the eyes of the old man’s son and daughter-in-law flashed. Even the old man moaned and said that he wanted to settle it privately.
Mei Xiaoyue did not have any ideas for a moment. She even suspected that she had encountered the legendary scam. She was about to stabilize the car just now, but this old man suddenly appeared.
“What are you still hesitating for? Do you not want to take responsibility? Otherwise, we will call the police. Looking at the uniform you are wearing, you should be from the army, right?”
“That’s right, otherwise, we will call the police!”
The threatening words made Mei Xiaoyue panic even more.
The few of them had already stepped forward with fierce expressions. Mei Xiaoyue leaned against the car door.
“If you want to call the police, then call the police. I’ll let the police check, you lot are already so familiar with the road, how many times has this happened?”
At this moment, a low and playful voice came from the crowd.
Everyone was stunned when they heard it. Mei Xiaoyue did not react and looked up to see that the crowd had automatically opened up a path.
A silver-gray tall figure slowly appeared in front of them. Of course, there was also the black figure who stepped forward faster.
“Mother, are you okay?”
Qin Su’s voice was heard. Mei Xiaoyue also felt her arm being held in an instant.
After a long while, Mei Xiaoyue finally recovered and let out an ‘oh’. However, her eyes were already glued to Zhou Zimo who was standing behind Qin Su. She even pulled Qin Su to the side as she felt that Qin Su was blocking her eyes, her eyes were shining with a light as she stared at Zhou Zimo without blinking.
Zhou Zimo was a little embarra.s.sed by her stare. He lowered his head slightly and held his hand as a fist while he covered the corner of his mouth and coughed lightly. He took a step forward and bowed politely, “h.e.l.lo, Aunty!”
“Oh, h.e.l.lo! h.e.l.lo!”
Mei Xiaoyue took a long time to react. Her eyes were still staring at Zhou Zimo. However, Zhou Zimo glanced at Qin Su from the side. Mei Xiaoyue immediately turned her head over and saw Qin Su frowning and looking back at Zhou Zimo. She was about to say something, when Qin Su spoke first.
“Let’s solve the problem first. What’s going on? Since you’re injured, we have to send you to the hospital first. I’ll call an ambulance right now.”
Qin Su’s eyes had a sharp glint in them as he stared at the old man who had been grazed before him. She then looked at the middle-aged couple who had called to solve the matter privately, “Your father is wounded, but you’re in such a hurry to settle this matter privately and take the money, you’re really something. I can’t help but doubt your intentions.”
“Slander! Come, everyone, take a look. Someone from the army hit into someone. They’re using their power to bully others!”
“That’s right, everyone come and take a look! They hit someone!”
…
Seeing this scene, Qin Su could not help but feel a wave of annoyance.
She did not know how this world had become like this, a dog eat dog world. The ugly faces of humans were always so obvious. After some thought, she took out her phone from her pocket and was about to call the police.
However, before she could dial the number, Zhou Zimo had already reached out to stop her.
“Calling the police won’t do us any good. It’s easy to solve the problem. Don’t worry.”
Zhou Zimo left this sentence and suddenly turned around to walk towards the couple.
At this moment, Mei Xiaoyue also let out a low cry of pain. Only then did Qin Su turn around to support her. “What’s wrong?”
“Nothing. I just got out of the car in a hurry and b.u.mped into the car door. Your father’s cell phone has been disconnected. He’s driving me crazy. Oh right, who is this man? He’s a good-looking man. Is he your boyfriend? Why didn’t you tell me you had a boyfriend? What does he do? Judging from his looks and clothes, he should be pretty good. His temperament is also pretty good, very good…”
Qin Su ignored Mei Xiaoyue’s words and did not answer her. Instead, he looked indifferently at Zhou Zimo who was negotiating with the old man’s family.
“Let me accompany you to the hospital for a check-up first.”
Qin Su interrupted Mei Xiaoyue’s words.
“What check-up? I’m fine. I just hit my waist. I’m fine now. Quickly tell me about him.”
Mei Xiaoyue’s eyes were glued to Zhou Zimo’s body. It was not difficult to see a sense of appreciation and satisfaction in her eyes—
“His looks are really better than those handsome male models. He’s much more handsome than your father back then. Qin Su, you have better taste than me!”
Qin Su was expressionless and pretended not to hear.
It was not sure what Zhou Zimo had said to those people. He saw him take out a stack of bills from his pocket and pa.s.s it to the old man. The few of them left and the crowd gradually dispersed.
“Aunty, are you alright?”
Zhou Zimo turned around and walked over to Mei Xiaoyue and Qin Su as he asked with concern.
“I’m fine, I’m fine! I’m pretty okay, thank you, you…”
Mei Xiaoyue said with a smile. The way she looked at Zhou Zimo was like a mother-in-law looking at her future son-in-law.
Zhou Zimo’s appearance was not inferior to Su Chen and Mu Yuchen’s. He himself looked quite gentle and refined, so he had a sense of amiability. It was very easy to capture the other party’s good impression. His popularity was no less than Mu Yuchen and Su Chen’s, Mei Xiaoyue was instantly won over.
“h.e.l.lo, Aunty. I’m Zhou Zimo. You can call me Zimo.”
Zhou Zimo said very modestly. As he said that, he gave Qin Su a meaningful glance. That gaze made Mei Xiaoyue feel that something was fishy.
Qin Su, on the other hand, still had a cold and indifferent expression.
“h.e.l.lo, Zimo!”
Mei Xiaoyue smiled and said, “Thank you so much this time!”
“Aunty, you’re welcome. After all that, I don’t think Aunty has eaten lunch yet, right?”
Zhou Zimo asked in a caring manner.
“Not yet. It’s already been an hour. I was planning to find a place to eat. I didn’t expect to encounter such a thing. I’m really sorry to have let you seen that.”
