Police quickly arrived at the scene of the traffic accident and cordoned off the area.
The car in front was a luxury car with a high insurance coverage, but it had two broken headlights and a slight dent in the rear.
The car was severely deformed, with the front almost completely smashed, and wisps of smoke coming out of the engine.
"Sister Yuqing, how are you?" Jiang Can asked, her face pale with fright.
She considers herself a fairly good driver and that she obeys traffic regulations.
But for some reason, she was driving along the road when she was suddenly rear-ended. In the instant of impact, she didn't have time to brake and was thrown dozens of meters by the car behind her.
Fortunately, Lin Yuqing was holding onto a cushion in the car, which prevented her from getting hurt in the stomach.
The ambulance arrived, and the paramedics hurriedly lifted the two people from the car behind.
The police came over and knocked on the car window to ask them about their situation.
Seeing that neither of them was seriously injured, they were asked to go to the hospital for a check-up and then give a statement.
When Jiang Can opened the car door and got out, her legs were trembling so badly she could barely stand. Looking at the many people around her, she felt dizzy.
A stretcher passed by, and the girl lying on it was thin and pale. The only trace of color in her skin was the wound on her forehead.
"The injured person is Yao Wanyin." The police frowned after investigating the situation. "What happened? The records show she's currently hospitalized. How did she get out?"
...
Outside the operating room, Yao Zheng and his wife were extremely anxious.
Yao Wanyin's identity had to be exposed because of this car accident.
Yao Zheng strongly demanded that the driver be punished, while Madam Yao asked the police in a trembling voice, "We demand that the police find out...who exactly instructed this!"
"What?" Yao Zheng was taken aback.
"Do you know that driver?" Madam Yao glanced at him and raised her voice. "You don't know him, and neither do I! But where did he come from, and why did he take Wanyin away? How can we manage without finding out these things!"
Yao Manning was quite a distance away, but her heart was pounding.
She cursed the driver she had bribed a thousand times over.
Does this person even know how to handle things? How could he let Yao Wanyin grab the steering wheel?
And then, of all things, they crashed into Jiang Can and Lin Yuqing's car!
Now not only will Huo Zhixing cause her trouble, but Lu Lishan won't let her off the hook either!
That day felt incredibly long; the operating room lights didn't go out until 8 p.m.
Meanwhile, Yao Manning made countless phone calls, and only when she heard the definite news that the driver had taken all the blame did she feel a little relieved.
“Manning,” Mona quietly walked up behind her, “I hired the driver, and I agreed to his terms. He just wanted 200,000 yuan to save for his son. Look at this money…”
"Money? What money!" Yao Manning retorted rudely. "He's handled things like this, and you still want me to give him money?"
Mona was taken aback. "Manning, he took the blame for you!"
"Ha, I didn't force him to take the blame!" Yao Manning said arrogantly. "Besides, I haven't even figured out what to do when that brat wakes up! I'm in a mess right now, I'm not in the mood to send him money!"
Mona wanted to say something more, but seeing Yao Manning's angry expression, she chose to keep quiet.
Soon, the news that the Yao family had another daughter spread throughout the entire circle.
Yao Zheng had no choice but to explain to the public that Yao Wanyin had been in poor health and he had never brought her into the public eye.
However, Mrs. Yao openly admitted to the media: "It's our fault as parents! Wanyin has a congenital disease, and we don't want to be criticized for not being able to give birth to a healthy child... This is our selfishness and vanity!"
Yao Zheng stared at her with wide eyes, "Stop talking!"
"I have to say it!" Madam Yao said emotionally, "We've been wrong for so many years, we owe Wan Yin so much! Today, in front of everyone, I want to say sorry to Wan Yin..."
"Parents should apologize even if they do something wrong!"
"Although Wanyin is out of danger, she remains unconscious." Madam Yao wept uncontrollably. "I don't expect my daughter to forgive me. I only want to spend the rest of my life taking good care of her to atone for my sins..."
Hiding in the shadows, Yao Manning stared intently at them, her fingers digging fiercely into the wall, almost carving a hole through it.
...
These past few days, Huo Zhixing has been keeping a very close eye on Jiang Can.
Even when she went to the yard to feed the cats, he would follow her closely.
Although Jiang Can had witnessed his clingy nature before, this was the first time she had seen him this persistent, leaving her both amused and exasperated.
Just as she finished feeding the chubby orange and turned around, she bumped into that warm and sturdy embrace.
The man's strong arms encircled her, and he looked her up and down carefully.
"How many times do I have to watch it every day!" Jiang Can said helplessly.
"I need to check if you're injured!" Huo Zhixing said nervously.
"Of course not, she's perfectly fine!" He asked her this question from the first day after the car accident, looking at her from head to toe hundreds of times a day.
"But Sister Yuqing was frightened, and we don't know if it will affect the fetus."
"If there's no movement from Lu Lishan's side, then nothing's wrong," Huo Zhixing said in a low voice. "However, the doctor said that if a pregnant woman is frightened, it will more or less affect the baby, and she needs to rest to recover."
Why did that car crash into us?
"The police responded that the driver was driving while fatigued and did not have a driver's license, and that he had been detained."
"Oh..." she pouted, "Luckily, the car Lu Lishan bought for Sister Yuqing is sturdy and durable! Otherwise, with that kind of force, if it were any other car, we'd probably both be lying in the emergency room!"
Huo Zhixing chuckled and gently touched her hair.
He sensed that this was no ordinary traffic accident. At first, he suspected Huo Zhanhe and Huo Zhiyan, but that lead went cold, so he wondered if they were Lu Lishan's former enemies.
But none of them are true.
Instead, Yao Wanyin's identity was revealed; it turns out the Yao family really does have another daughter.
“By the way, Zhixing,” Jiang Can frowned, “there’s a detail that still seems a bit odd to me when I think about it now…”
"What's wrong?"
"The person in that car is another daughter of the Yao family." She paused. "But why would a daughter of the Yao family travel in a minivan?"
"Moreover, at the scene of the car accident, I saw that she was completely pale, and there was black tape over her mouth!"
Huo Zhixing was taken aback. "She was kidnapped?"
Jiang Can shrugged, and after a long while said softly:
"If she really was kidnapped, then what was the purpose of the kidnapping?"
"For so many years, the Yao family has only publicly claimed to have one daughter, Yao Manning. How would anyone else know about this heiress's existence? If anyone were to kidnap someone, it would be Yao Manning!"
Huo Zhixing nodded, his eyes darkening.
