Ji Yanli didn't say anything, and his expression looked quite calm, not at all like someone who had just experienced a life-and-death situation.
He lowered his eyelashes, sent a message to Butler Ji on his cell phone, then put one hand in his pocket and stroked the hot jade pendant inside.
Ji Yanli's eyes darkened. He knew that it was the jade pendant given to him by Li Shu that saved them, otherwise they would have died in the situation just now.
No wonder Li Shu suddenly called him and asked him to pick up the Lin couple. She also specifically told him to bring the jade pendant. I guess she must have predicted that they were in trouble, so she asked him to come and help break the deadlock.
Ji Yanli raised his eyes and looked at the driver who got off the truck. There didn't seem to be anything unusual about the other person, nor did he look like the type who was driving in the wrong direction because he was drunk or too sleepy.
The car accident just now was probably not an accident, but rather seemed to be man-made, and was obviously aimed at them.
He investigated the Lin couple, who ran the small noodle shop diligently and had never been in trouble, so the possibility of revenge by enemies could be ruled out.
So who wants to kill them?
Ji Yanli suddenly had a flash of inspiration and thought of something. A bold guess slowly emerged in his mind.
Could it be that Ji Qianya hired someone to do it?
As long as the Lin couple died in this accidental car accident, then she could continue to stay in the Ji family...
And because of what he said casually in the car yesterday, Ji Qianya became inexplicably nervous, as if he had done something wrong.
In addition, he also saw Ji Qianya taking pictures of the information of the Lin couple with her mobile phone. He felt suspicious at the time, but now he thinks that she must have taken the pictures and sent them to the person who did it for her.
Combining all the signs, the answer is obvious. However, in order to further confirm the authenticity, we need to investigate the truck driver and Ji Qianya's call records.
Ji Yanli looked up at the back of his car. Because of the sudden car accident, the large truck was stuck in the middle of the road, forcing the cars behind it to stop.
But he discovered that the car that had been following behind him had disappeared...
It seems really suspicious now, and I'm afraid he is closely related to the mastermind of this car accident.
At this moment, there was a sudden commotion around, and people gradually began to gather around Ji Yanli, raising their mobile phones to take pictures of him, as if they recognized him.
"This is Ji Yanli, the actor Ji!"
"Ahhhh, this really is my idol, oh my god!"
"Oh my god, so it was Actor Ji who got into the accident. What a close call..."
"Brother Li, are you okay? Are you hurt?"
"I didn't expect he's even more handsome in real life than on TV!"
......
Ji Yanli collected his thoughts, glanced at the crowd of passersby, and said with a smile, "Thank you for your concern. I'm fine. Please don't crowd together. Please evacuate. The police will be here soon. I hope everyone will not disrupt order."
Upon hearing this, passersby consciously dispersed and stood further away, but they still held up their phones to take pictures of him. After all, this was the first time they had such close contact with a celebrity.
Ji Yanli pressed his brows, not having the time to think about these things now. He turned his head and said to the three members of the Lin family beside him, "Wait a moment, I've asked someone to come and deal with it."
Lin Yan listened to the whispers around him, opened his mouth, and seemed to be so shocked that his jaw dropped. He whispered, "No, brother, you are a star?"
Ji Yanli said, "Yes."
Lin Yan nodded in a daze. The main reason was that he never paid attention to the entertainment industry, so it was normal that he didn't recognize Ji Yanli's identity. He also didn't expect that a rich young man would have nothing better to do and go to the entertainment industry to become a star.
He touched the back of his head, glanced at the passers-by who were holding up their phones to take pictures, and became stiff.
Fortunately, Butler Ji brought people over soon.
Ji Yanli quickly handed over the work to him and asked him to stay to handle the follow-up matters. Then he took the three members of the Lin family into the car driven by the Ji family driver and returned to the Ji family together.
......
On the other side, the Ji family.
Although Ji Qianya was chatting with Ye Lan, her thoughts had long drifted away. Seeing that her phone was silent, she couldn't help but start to feel anxious.
Just when she was about to call and ask, the cell phone finally rang.
Ji Qianya took out her cell phone from her pocket, lowered her eyes to check the caller ID, a glimmer flashed across her eyes, and she said to Ye Lan, "Mom, it's the counselor who's looking for me. I'll go answer the phone."
Ye Lan asked curiously, "Why does your counselor keep looking for you? Is there something going on at school?"
Ji Qianya smiled and explained, "It's just that a project I participated in before won an award, and they need me to provide some information."
"Is that so?" Ye Lan nodded and glanced at the still ringing phone. "Then go answer it."
Ji Qianya nodded, stood up from the sofa and left the living room.
She slid her finger across the screen of her phone, pressed the answer button, and said in a voice filled with excitement, "Hello."
"I failed." said the man on the other end of the phone.
Ji Qianya was slightly stunned when she heard this. When she came to her senses, her brows were full of surprise. She even suspected that she had heard it wrongly. "What did you say?!"
"I failed. I don't know what happened. I clearly hit the car, but I only dented the front of the car. But I can guarantee that the truck driver I arranged didn't deliberately slow down or anything. Even if he slowed down or took any measures, it is impossible that he just hit the front of the car with such a big inertia. In short, this is a weird thing." The man said with a headache.
Ji Qianya's eyelids twitched, and she couldn't hear a word at all. With flames in her eyes, she said sternly: "You failed once and twice. What are you doing? You took the money and didn't do anything well. Are you liars?!"
The man was speechless, and obviously didn't want to do business with her anymore. He just said, "I'll return the deposit I paid to you later."
"You failed once, can't you try to hit them a second time? A third time?!" Ji Qianya's eyes were scattered, her breathing was rapid, and she screamed, "I just want them to die!"
The man had nothing to say and simply hung up the phone.
“Beep, beep…”
For a moment, the only sound on the phone was the cold sound of hanging up.
"Ah!" Ji Qianya was so angry that her head felt dizzy and her face was distorted.
She raised her hand and slammed the phone to the ground. The screen instantly shattered into pieces, covered with spider-web-like cracks.
As if she was still not satisfied, she raised her foot and stepped on the phone again.
The maid who heard the noise nearby hurried over and asked cautiously, "Miss Qianya, are you okay?"
