"What did you say?"
After hearing what was said on the other end of the phone, Qin Yuchen's face darkened.
After hanging up the phone, he looked at the colorful race cars on the screen that were crossing the finish line one after another, and his eyes turned sinister.
Qin Chu's red Ferrari sped across the finish line, but the camera didn't follow it; the image froze on the timer at the finish line.
It was as if the record-breaking No.1 wasn't something to celebrate or revel in.
The scene at that moment showed police officers maintaining order, staff from the organizers, and a few reporters holding microphones, but there was no huge crowd of onlookers.
Everything is so wrong!
Qin Yuchen doesn't race cars.
Let alone large-scale events, even a promotional raffle at the entrance of a shopping mall will have the host interviewing the lucky winner about their feelings at that moment.
Not to mention the international-standard racing competition that Qin Chu participated in.
He then heard from his subordinate on the other end of the phone that he had been evacuated from the street by the police more than ten minutes earlier, along with the dense crowd of onlookers on both sides of the road.
Qin Yuchen held the wine glass, his emotions fluctuating.
Qin Chu is a professional race car driver, so it's perfectly normal for him to spot a problem with the car immediately.
The navigator immediately reported the situation to the organizers and the racing committee, and it was only natural that they responded quickly.
That's why the footage of Qin Chu crossing the finish line wasn't played again.
After all, once such a dramatic scene of a car crash resulting in death is broadcast, both the organizers and the racing committee will inevitably face public criticism afterward.
It's even more troublesome; they might have to hold a press conference to publicly apologize and express their condolences.
Not broadcasting it now is the best outcome.
On one hand, he felt that the unexpected had already happened, and everything was just as he had predicted.
On the other hand, he felt that things had spiraled out of his control.
The mere thought that the latter might offer Qin Chu a glimmer of hope made Qin Yucheng's temples throb with excitement.
The next moment, the commentator's excited voice rang out, "The match has come to a successful conclusion! Now, let's witness together the birth of the champion, runner-up, and third-place winner..."
The camera then shifts to the awards ceremony stage.
Qin Yuchen's eyes narrowed sharply.
The flower-adorned awards stage was still perfectly displayed on the screen.
There was not a single trace of damage.
Even the chairman of the organizing committee, who came on stage to present the awards, was all smiles, as if nothing unexpected had happened.
Awards are being presented on stage.
The audience cheered.
Everything was so orderly and well-organized.
The only exception was that the gold medal winner who went on stage to accept the award was the captain of the Freely team.
Thinking that everything was flawless, Qin Chu's only possible ending was a car crash, death, and immediate cremation.
Anticipating that Lu Xizhou would not let the matter rest and that Qin Zhongsong would definitely investigate thoroughly, Qin Yuchen only sent one person to avoid being caught red-handed.
Right now, that person has been expelled and knows nothing about it.
Snap!
A slight tingling pain pierced his palm. Qin Yuchen smashed the wine glass with a bang, took out his phone, and made a call.
...
When Qin Chu opened his eyes, the setting sun outside the window had dyed the entire sky red.
The deep orange and light pink hues are captured in the spacious window, contrasting beautifully against the surrounding white walls, like a mural hanging on the wall, dazzlingly beautiful.
A rustling sound arose, and Qin Chu turned his head, his gaze momentarily fixed.
On the sofa against the wall, Ye Li lazily leaned back, holding her phone, typing away furiously.
"pear……"
As soon as Qin Chu spoke, Ye Li, who was on the sofa, looked up, put down her phone, and rushed over, "Chu Chu, how are you? Are you dizzy? Do you feel unwell anywhere? Do you feel nauseous?"
Ye Li asked this question.
Qin Chu belatedly realized that there was a bandage on his head, and he felt slightly dizzy when he turned his head.
"I'm fine."
Shaking his head, Qin Chu suddenly felt intensely dizzy. He closed his eyes and took a few deep breaths.
When she opened her eyes again, she looked at Ye Li and asked, "What are you doing here? Weren't you supposed to be competing?"
"What's more important than the competition?"
Ye Li tapped the button on the touchscreen and let out a long sigh of relief. "You really scared me to death this time."
When Fu Yanci and Ye Li received Lu Xizhou's call, they wondered if he was asking to borrow a private jet. After all, it takes 20 hours to fly from Sicheng to Florida, and Lu Shao probably couldn't wait to be with Qin Chu forever.
As soon as Lu Xizhou spoke on the other end of the phone, Ye Li immediately jumped up.
"Young Master Lu is already on his way..."
Holding Qin Chu's hand and stroking her face, Ye Li smiled and said, "Darling, things have turned around! This must be the biggest pitfall you've ever encountered in your life! From now on, your path will be smooth sailing, and you will definitely be happy!"
"Um!"
Qin Chu nodded, her eyes red-rimmed, "Yes! We will both be happy!"
Hurried footsteps approached one after another.
The ward door opened, and blond-haired, blue-eyed doctors in white coats filed in.
Look at the instrument data.
They were there to examine Qin Chu.
As he walked out of the ward, he said calmly, "The patient's condition is stable, and he can be discharged after a few days of rest."
"Thanks!"
Fu Yanci thanked him, glanced at Qin Chu on the hospital bed, then at Ye Li who was holding Qin Chu's hand tightly and wouldn't leave him for a moment, and then reached out to close the door.
Only now did he feel alive again, and Qin Chu roughly knew what had happened.
Lu Xizhou begged Master Fu, who, together with the organizers and the organizing committee, set up countless buffer zones and roadblocks between the finish line and the podium, which led to her current situation.
