Chapter 179 A Promise Is Made



"Yes, I met her for the first time yesterday. I'm quite sure I didn't know her before. As for whether she knew me, I don't know."

Huang Jianguo was certain, absolutely certain, and absolutely certain that he truly did not know that woman.

"Okay, thank you for your cooperation. We will do our best to find the person who stabbed you, and we will let you know if there is any progress."

"Of course, if you remember any clues, you are welcome to come to the police station to provide them at any time. We'll be going now."

Huang Jianjun stood up and saw them out: "Okay, thank you for your hard work, police officers. Take care."

Back in the ward, the two Huang brothers didn't dare to utter a sound and just stayed quietly.

Huang Jianguo wished there was a crack in the ground he could disappear into right now. He glanced at Chen Zhaodi and noticed that her expression was unusually calm.

Huang Jianguo sensed something was terribly wrong and was now too afraid to even breathe.

Huang Eryuan wanted to ask, but seeing Chen Zhaodi's expression, he didn't dare to speak. Based on his understanding of Chen Zhaodi, she appeared calm on the surface, but was definitely furious inside.

Chen Zhaodi said unhurriedly, "Boss, aren't you going to explain?"

Huang Jianguo was panicking and stammered, "It's...it's just like what the police officer said..."

"Then why didn't you tell us? Since it wasn't an accident, have you considered that if there's a next time, you might not be alive?!"

"You're only 21! If we had known someone was deliberately trying to harm you, your dad and I shouldn't have gone back last night!"

"You're so young, what would your dad and I do if something happened to you! Waaah..."

"Waaaaa!!! Waaaaaaah!! Waaaaaah!"

Huang Jianguo and the others thought Chen Zhaodi would be angry, would curse and get furious, but they never expected her to cry so sadly.

Several people frantically tried to comfort her, but they didn't know why she was crying so bitterly.

In their view, although someone deliberately tried to harm Huang Jianguo, he has escaped unscathed and is now safe from trouble, which is something to be happy about.

Huang Jianguo didn't want to tell his parents, simply because he didn't want them to worry. Now that Chen Zhaodi was crying like this, they were really at a loss.

"Mom, don't cry, I'm fine..."

"Yes, honey, look at our eldest son, he's still alive and kicking! The police will definitely be able to catch that guy soon!"

"Yes, yes, Mom, don't cry. If you keep crying, people will think we're bullying you."

Why did Chen Zhaodi cry? Because she was terrified!

If Huang Jianguo's accident was just an accident, she wouldn't be so scared, since she had been mentally prepared since the first day he became a driver.

The steel mill has the most drivers of all the factories, not because it has a lot of trucks or orders, but because it needs to hire more drivers.

Rather, it's because steel mill drivers face greater risks. Besides the occasional robbery, the steel mill's cargo is very heavy, often resulting in driver injuries.

However, these were all accidental events, and Huang Jianguo's injury was no exception; Chen Zhaodi originally thought it was just an accident.

And now you're telling her, no, it wasn't an accident. Someone deliberately tried to kill him. How can Chen Zhaodi not be afraid?

Chen Zhaodi didn't know how long she had been crying, only that her eyes were so swollen that she had difficulty opening them.

She tried to calm herself down and said, choking back tears, "Boss, after you recover from your injury, apply for a transfer. I won't allow you to continue being a driver!"

"mom!"

Huang Jianguo would never apply for a job transfer. He worked so hard to become a driver, how could he possibly want to apply for a job transfer!

"Mom, calm down..."

"I'm very calm! You never get into conflicts with anyone, so why would anyone deliberately try to kill you?! It must be because you became a driver!"

Chen Zhaodi grabbed Huang Jianguo's hand and pleaded, "Big brother, please listen to your mother's advice, let's not be drivers anymore. If something really happens to you, your mother will really go crazy..."

Huang Jianguo felt that since Chen Zhaodi was concerned about the accident, as long as he could prove that he wasn't being targeted because he became a driver, there would be no problem.

So he tried to explain, "Mom, that's not true. My accident has nothing to do with whether I was the driver or not."

"Do you remember how my younger sister repeatedly reminded me to check everything before driving after I became a driver? I guess she probably knows who's trying to frame me."

"Really, Mom, you have to believe me. We'll call my little sister over and ask her."

Huang Jianguo looked at Chen Zhaodi with anticipation, hoping she would accept it.

However, regardless of whether she can accept this reason, Huang Jianguo is unlikely to apply for a job transfer.

He will be filial to his parents and listen to them. However, he cannot blindly obey his parents.

Everyone makes mistakes. If you know that what your parents say is wrong, then all you can do is try your best to communicate with them.

Chen Zhaodi remained silent for a while, and finally chose to back down: "Then promise me that you will go to find a partner after you have recovered from your injuries."

Chen Zhaodi thought about it and realized that Huang Qinqin's reminder was indeed quite unusual. However, she still wanted to have an extra layer of insurance.

She believes that once Huang Jianguo gets married and has children, he will have more concerns and will pay more attention to safety in the future.

Huang Eryuan and Huang Jianjun both thought he would refuse, because Chen Zhaodi had urged him so many times over the years, but he had never agreed.

Even Chen Zhaodi herself didn't expect Huang Jianguo to agree so quickly; she was prepared to get entangled with him for a while.

But Huang Jianguo replied, "Okay."

!! !! !!

Chen Zhaodi and the other two moved in unison, patting their ears as if they were hallucinating.

Huang Jianguo: ......

Is it really that unbelievable that he agreed to go for the blind date?

Fearing he might change his mind, Chen Zhaodi quickly regained her composure, extended her hand, and gestured for him to give her a high five, saying, "It's a deal!"

Then she immediately said happily, "Then your dad and I will go find Qinqin now. Second brother, you stay with eldest brother at the hospital."

As Huang Jianjun watched Chen Zhaodi leave, he felt that she was radiating joy.

Huang Jianjun asked him curiously, "Brother, why did you suddenly agree to go on a blind date with Mom?"

"Didn't you always say you didn't want to get married in the next two years? I thought I misheard you just now."

"I'm already 21, is it so strange that I agree to go on a blind date? Besides, even if I agree to go on a blind date, is it guaranteed to be successful?"
