"Now, let's get back to the main topic and welcome our award presenter, Mr. Murong Xiao, to present the awards to our winners!"

Murong Xiao slowly stood up from his seat, buttoned up his suit jacket, and walked towards the stage.

He took the trophy and envelope from the ceremonial officer and handed them to Xiang Jin: "Congratulations, wife."

"You didn't even tell me you were the award presenter." Xiang Jin accepted the trophy and envelope, looked at the man in front of her, and slightly raised her lips.

“Now we’ll know.” He responded to her, raising an eyebrow as well.

Xiang Jin was amused by his actions and gently reached out to cover herself.

He took the opportunity to take her hand, interlock their fingers, and then stood beside her, looking together in the direction of the photographer—to take a photo together.

This subtle moment was captured on camera again. While it lacked the earth-shattering grandeur of epic vows, it was the details that gripped viewers even more. Sure enough, the viewers of the live stream went wild once more:

Netizen: "Does anyone have a knife? Lend it to me quickly, I want to kill them to liven things up!"

"Are you two being polite? Exchanging glances in front of the whole nation! If you're so capable, give me a kiss! If you don't, I'll get angry!"

"Showing off your love in a way that's not very hurtful but extremely insulting—are you even letting single people live?!"

…………

The awards ceremony was still underway, but several trending topics already included the two of them. #XiangJinWinsFirstPlace#, #XiangJinRevealsHisAnonymousAccount#, #MurongCoupleShowsAffectionOnline#...

Looking at the trending topics, Li Shuhui clicked on each one and read them carefully.

She reports anyone who mentions anything bad about Xiangqi.

Her gaze gradually sharpened because there were so many people cursing Xiang Qi, using all sorts of vulgar language. She reported them while cursing back, and was later blacklisted for violating platform rules.

She registered a new account and continued, but the new account was also blocked in the end.

She angrily smashed her phone, which flew several meters away but didn't break. The screen was still lit up, displaying a photo of Xiang Jin and Murong Xiao that she had accidentally clicked on.

On stage, Xiang Jin held a trophy and an envelope, smiling sweetly, while Murong Xiao held his hand, exuding an air of authority.

They are the most glamorous people in this country, the most enviable people, while her Aqi is currently in a dark and damp prison, living a life of darkness.

Her life was ruined, and she would never have the chance to stand on such a stage again.

All of this is thanks to them.

If it weren't for Xiang Jin and Murong Xiao, her Aqi would still be a genius girl in China, a high-born heiress envied by everyone. She should have had a better future. They ruined her.

It ruined her precious child, and it ruined her too.

She was unwilling to accept it; how could she possibly accept it...

She gripped her phone tightly, her eyes growing increasingly ruthless.

…………

There was a banquet after the awards ceremony, and after the banquet, the two got into their car and left.

Xiang Jin had drunk some wine and felt a little dizzy. She leaned on Murong Xiao's shoulder, looked at the scenery rushing past the window, and smiled.

People say that life is never perfect and that suffering is the norm. This is indeed the truth. Therefore, she has never asked for much. She is very content as long as she can continue living her current life.

if--

She would be even more content if she could have another little baby.

She held Murong Xiao's hand and casually mentioned, "Murong Xiao, let's have a child."

"What……"

The next moment, a black sedan crashed into the Rolls-Royce. Amidst the urgent sirens and Su Ming's exclamation, the Rolls-Royce was thrown more than ten meters away, rolling twice before landing right in the middle of the intersection. A truck, unable to brake in time, crashed into it again.

When the ambulance arrived, passersby had already rescued the three people from the car. These were the richest couple who had recently become internet sensations. As a result, news of the car accident spread across the internet at lightning speed.

#Xiang Jin and Murong Xiao are involved in a car accident#

#The fate of the Murong couple remains unknown#

Netizens were stunned by the sudden news and frantically tagged the police to confirm its authenticity. Under immense pressure, the police issued a statement three hours later, confirming the incident was true. The three injured people had been sent to the hospital, and the police had apprehended the suspect, Li, and the truck driver, Liao.

Upon seeing the news, Bai Ningshuang immediately contacted Sun Yanqing and rushed to the hospital.

The operating room lights were still on, and the corridor was filled with members of the Murong family. Even the old man himself was there, and the atmosphere was extremely solemn.

"How is she? How is Ajin?" Bai Ningshuang was so anxious she was almost crying.

"The situation is not good. Li Shuhui was driving too fast, almost without hesitation. Fortunately, when the car crashed into her, Murong Xiao shielded A Jin. Otherwise, judging from past traffic accidents, it would be difficult to survive such a serious accident, but..."

"Who are you talking about? Who drove the car?" Bai Ningshuang's tone was extremely cold.

"Li Shuhui".

"I'm going to kill her." Bai Ningshuang shook off Sun Yanqing's hand and turned to run out of the hospital.

Sun Yanqing quickly caught up with her and pulled her into a corner: "Are you crazy? How can you kill her now? She's under the police's control. How could you possibly have a chance to kill her? If you had that opportunity, you wouldn't need to do it yourself."

"She'd better pray that Ah Jin is alright, otherwise..."

“Otherwise, she will regret it for the rest of her life.” Sun Yanqing’s expression was also not good. Suddenly, he thought of something and looked at Bai Ningshuang, “There is a chance to get revenge on Li Shuhui. Do you want it?”

…………

After discussing it for a while, Bai Ningshuang's emotions stabilized a bit, and the two continued to wait outside the operating room.

Two hours later, the lights in the operating room were finally turned off, and people in the corridor got up one by one.

The first one to be brought out was Murong Xiao: "The patient's vital signs are stable, but the injuries are quite severe. He needs to rest well and will wake up once the anesthesia wears off."

The old man finally felt relieved, and then asked, "How is my granddaughter-in-law?"

The doctor was silent for a moment: "We are still trying to save him. Don't worry, we will do our best."

"How is she? Is she alright?" Bai Ningshuang asked anxiously.

"Her condition is quite bad, mainly due to brain damage. Even if she is rescued, whether she can wake up depends on her own willpower."

The old man swayed, and Bai Ningshuang collapsed to the ground, tears streaming down her face.

Two hours later, Xiang Jin was finally wheeled out of the operating room.

Her entire body was covered in bandages and medical equipment, with not a single patch of intact skin remaining. She was unrecognizable. Seeing this, Bai Ningshuang nearly fainted again.

Next, Su Ming was pushed out. He was the driver and was furthest from the point of impact, so he was the least injured.

The three were assigned to different wards, and Xiang Jin still needed to stay in the intensive care unit.

Three days later, Xiang Jin's vital signs stabilized, and she was transferred to a regular ward.
