Chapter 820 He's in trouble...
Zhou Yi came up with a very lame reason, one that even he himself didn't believe.
"We are friends after all. I hope you have a good life and that you meet the right person."
Bai Yi was momentarily at a loss for words when it came to answering Zhou Yi.
Because even she herself had never seriously considered whether she liked Wang Ye or not.
But there was one thing she was certain of.
She did not want to divorce Wang Ye.
Even though their relationship wasn't going smoothly for various reasons.
Bai Yi thought for a moment, but did not answer Zhou Yi directly. Instead, she said, "There's no such thing as liking or disliking. Being together is just about living life. As long as we can manage the daily necessities well, that's enough. I haven't thought about anything else."
"But you are still young, and your life shouldn't just drift along like this."
Zhou Yi's eyes held a complex expression as he gazed intently at Bai Yi.
Bai Yi asked curiously, "What exactly are you trying to say?"
"What I wanted to say was..." Zhou Yi paused, pursed his lips, and spoke with some difficulty the following words.
"If you and Wang Ye can make do, then why can't that person be me?"
After the question was asked, the two fell into a long silence.
Later, Zhou Yi never received a reply from Bai Yi.
Bai Yi received a phone call from someone in Hai City, saying that there was a document that Bai Yi needed to send over.
Because they were pressing for an answer urgently, and the computer was at home, Bai Yi quickly said goodbye to Zhou Yi after hanging up the phone and left.
The question she hadn't had a chance to answer seemed to have been forgotten by her as well.
However, Zhou Yi didn't seem to care, because he already had the answer in his heart.
Bai Yi's departure was not intentional, but perhaps, this was the answer that fate had given him.
After returning home and sending out the documents, Bai Yi took care of some other work. By the time he finished, it was already an hour later.
The rain outside hadn't stopped yet, and Bai Yi figured the shop would be crowded right now, so she quickly tidied herself up and prepared to go help out.
Just as Bai Yi was about to leave, she received a call from the hospital.
The person on the other end said something, and Bai Yi felt as if she had been struck by lightning. With a thud, her phone slipped from her hand and fell to the floor.
...
"We are breaking news. Thirty minutes ago, two serious traffic accidents occurred at the intersection of Sucheng Road and Nanhui Road. The number of casualties is currently unknown, but the vehicles were severely damaged..."
Grandpa Qin had just turned on the TV when he saw this news.
The scene was chaotic; there were not only reporters, but also fire trucks, ambulances, and police cars—they were all there.
When Grandpa Qin saw the injured person being carried onto the ambulance, he was covered in blood and didn't know whether he was dead or alive. Even with the mosaic, the bloody scene couldn't be hidden.
He suddenly remembered when Qin Ce was in a car accident. If he had seen Qin Ce covered in blood being carried onto an ambulance, he probably wouldn't have been able to hold on and would have fainted on the spot.
Grandpa Qin sighed, "Alas, life is unpredictable..."
As soon as Qiao Xing entered the door, she heard Grandpa Qin sighing. She was about to ask him what was wrong when she looked at the TV and shook her head helplessly.
"Grandpa, didn't I tell you not to watch these bloody news reports? But you did."
Qiao Xing walked over, picked up the remote, and prepared to change the channel.
Grandpa Qin sighed, "You see, you never know what you'll encounter in the next second. Maybe one second you're thinking about what to eat when you get home...sigh."
Qiao Xing didn't hear what Grandpa Qin said at all, because just as she was about to change the channel, a scene of on-site rescue flashed across the TV screen.
In that scene, there was an electric scooter that she recognized very well lying on the road.
That's Wang Ye's electric scooter.
Qiao Xing's vision went black, and he almost lost his balance.
Grandpa Qin noticed she wasn't moving and realized something was wrong. "Xingxing, what's wrong? Are you feeling unwell?"
Qiao Xing gripped the steering wheel tightly.
She mechanically turned her head to look at Grandpa Qin, opened her mouth, and said, "That electric scooter, it looks like my cousin's..."
Grandpa Qin looked bewildered and instinctively glanced at the television, but the image had already flashed by.
The rescue scene was in complete chaos; there was no sign of any electric vehicles.
Grandpa Qin comforted her, "Maybe it's just that the electric car looks a bit like it, it's not your cousin."
Qiao Xing tried to tell herself that it was just a coincidence, but she felt increasingly uneasy.
Grandpa Qin suggested, "Why don't you make a phone call and ask?"
Yes, she almost forgot to call.
Qiao Xing quickly took her phone out of her bag, but before she could dial, she received a call from Bai Yi.
Qiao Xing suddenly had a bad feeling.
She quickly answered the phone, praying that it wasn't what she thought.
But reality is cruel. As soon as the call connected, she heard Bai Yi's trembling sobs.
"Qiao Xing... Wang Ye... He, he's in trouble..."
Qiao Xing's mind went blank for a moment, but Bai Yi's crying pulled her back to reality.
She quickly calmed herself down and asked Bai Yi, "Where are you?"
Hearing Qiao Xing's voice, Bai Yi finally calmed down a bit, "At Jiangning Hospital..."
"Don't worry, I'll be right there. Have you already informed your aunt and uncle?"
"Yes, they're on their way."
"Okay, then take care of yourself. I'll be right there. Don't worry, your cousin will be fine."
“Okay…” Bai Yi’s voice trembled.
She also wanted Wang Ye to be safe.
As soon as Qiao Xing hung up the phone, Grandpa Qin quickly asked, "What's wrong?"
"Grandpa, my cousin is in an accident, I need to go to the hospital."
As Qiao Xing was about to leave after speaking, Grandpa Qin quickly stopped her, "Don't rush, call Xiao Ce first and ask him to come back. You can go with him. It's not good for you to go out alone."
Qiao Xing was so concerned that she forgot she was pregnant.
Although she was anxious, she listened to Grandpa Qin's advice and quickly called Qin Ce.
Qin Ce rushed back as soon as he received the call.
Qiao Xing felt somewhat at ease when she saw Qin Ce.
On the way to the hospital, Qin Ce said, "I've already had someone check. All the patients at the scene have been sent to the hospital for emergency treatment. The electric bike does belong to your cousin, but he should be fine. Don't worry."
Qiao Xing nodded. Actually, she was more worried about her uncle and aunt's situation than herself.
There is also whiteness.
If her cousin really had an accident, she really didn't know how they would cope with such devastating news.
When Qiao Xing and Qin Ce arrived at the hospital, everyone else was already there and was waiting outside the operating room.
He Fen, supported by Wang Yue, was almost crying herself unconscious. Wang Qin stood silently behind them with Lin Xi, her eyes red, clearly having also been crying.
Bai Yi sat quietly in the chair, her face pale and with obvious tear stains.
