Chapter 95 Unexpected Changes
It wasn't until Lu Yanchuan led her out of Jianghai Fish Restaurant and she got into the back seat of the car that the car drove out of the Jianghai Fish Restaurant parking lot.
Shen Li was still somewhat bewildered.
"No, when did we... start trying to conceive?" Shen Li asked.
Lu Yanchuan was messaging his friends to say he was leaving first, and that he also had something he wanted Rong Hengyu to help him inquire about.
He didn't even look up when he heard her say that. "Anytime."
Shen Li: "..."
She glanced at Lu Yanchuan and saw that he was staring intently at his phone screen, sending messages.
It seems as if they were not affected at all by what happened before.
Shen Li's phone was also vibrating in her pocket. She took it out and looked at the messages Qu Xiang had sent on the screen, which were like a barrage of bullets.
Qu Xiang: [Holy crap, you just left like that!]
Qu Xiang: [I didn't realize you were still wearing this style!]
Qu Xiang: [Daji, you! How could you create such a chaotic and jealous battlefield!]
Qu Xiang: [Two men are jealous of you!]
Qu Xiang: [To be honest, Lu Yanchuan and Xie Yi'an really look alike. Which one of them is the real Chun Yuan? Which one is the real Wanwan who resembles Qing?]
Qu Xiang: [You're not really planning to have a baby with Lu Yanchuan, are you?]
Shen Li looked at the long message sent by Qu Xiang and felt somewhat helpless.
Replying to each one individually now would be too troublesome, so I simply replied with: "Let's talk in person another day."
She turned off her phone and put it away. Just then, Lu Yanchuan finished sending his message, put his phone away, and turned to look at her.
The presence of their gaze is extremely strong.
Shen Li found it difficult not to turn her head and meet his gaze, so she turned her eyes to look at him and asked, "What... is wrong?"
Shen Li asked a question.
Lu Yanchuan's lips curled into a faint, ambiguous smile, making it difficult to discern whether it carried a hint of sarcasm.
"What's wrong?" Lu Yanchuan repeated her words before saying, "Xie Yi'an, don't you have anything to say to me?"
Shen Li was silent for a few seconds, then gently shook her head. "I have nothing to say about what happened ten years ago. Besides, we're going to get divorced sooner or later, so there's no need to dwell on these details."
Lu Yanchuan clicked his tongue. These days, you can't say a word without mentioning divorce.
He's become somewhat immune to it.
So Lu Yanchuan seemed not to hear the word 'divorce' in her words and continued, "Then why does he look so much like me?"
After a pause, President Lu glanced at Shen Li with a hint of reproach in his expression, "You wouldn't be thinking of me as his substitute, would you?"
Of course not.
Shen Li knew clearly in her heart who she was looking for whose shadow in back then.
But seeing the expression on Lu Yanchuan's face and hearing his resentful words, Shen Li felt a strange, slightly mischievous urge rise within her.
I'm curious to see what Lu Yanchuan's emotions and expressions would be if I told him that he was the stand-in.
Will he then agree to the divorce?
Thinking this to herself, when Shen Li turned to look at him, her eyes held a hint of mischievous shrewdness.
"You want to know?" Shen Li asked, moving closer to him.
Seeing the lively look in her eyes, Lu Yanchuan's heart stirred, and he leaned towards her as well.
But before Shen Li could get close enough to speak to him, a loud bang suddenly erupted!
The car was violently struck!
The sound of metal rubbing and deforming!
Everything outside the car window seemed to be flipping, and then they realized that it was the car they were riding in that was flipping.
The last thing Shen Li saw was Lu Yanchuan using the moment he leaned over to pull her close, holding her tightly in his arms.
The world seemed to be filled with the clashing and deforming of metal, the sharp sounds of metal scraping against the ground.
The world seemed quiet again, with only the deep thumping of his heartbeat in his ears.
Then finally, all was silent.
When Shen Li woke up again, she heard some rapid breathing.
Shen Li slowly opened her eyes, only to find her vision somewhat blurry, as if some liquid had covered her eyes.
Are they... my own tears?
Shen Li raised her hand to touch it, but found that even raising her hand was difficult.
My fingertips finally touched my eyelids, but all I could feel was a sticky, fishy-sweet sensation.
It wasn't tears, it was blood.
And she quickly realized that it wasn't her blood.
"woke up?"
A deep, hoarse voice rang out.
It was Lu Yanchuan's voice. Shen Li had almost never heard Lu Yanchuan's voice sound so weak and disheveled before.
Moreover, at this moment, in his voice and tone, there was something that Shen Li dared not think about in detail... a very muddy sound, as if there was liquid surging in his throat.
“Li… Huh, Li Li…” Lu Yanchuan managed to utter broken syllables, “Get… out…”
Seemingly unable to speak properly, he swallowed, swallowing the metallic taste churning in his throat.
He continued, "You... go out... through the window... out the window..."
In that instant, Shen Li's eyes and mind were empty, as if nothing was left.
Logically, with the light dimmed at this moment, one shouldn't be able to see the scene clearly.
However, Shen Li seemed to be able to clearly see Lu Yanchuan's face.
That face... always so handsome, sharp, and uncompromising, was now stained with blood.
She didn't even know where the blood was coming from, completely staining his face red.
What had just landed on her eyelids was the blood dripping from his mouth and nose.
Even at this moment, he was still smiling.
He managed a strained smile, as if trying to comfort her and bring her back to her senses from this completely bewildered state.
"No...don't be afraid...Lili, you...get out...quickly get out...through the car window..."
Shen Li's mind went blank for a moment, the scene before her, Lu Yanchuan's words, and the overwhelming bloodlust...
In an instant, Shen Li's memory was pulled back to many years ago, to a similar event and a similar scene.
Even... or something similar.
My mother did the same thing back then, telling her to climb out of the car window and go out first.
And the man in front of me now is the same.
But back then she was too young and weak to help her mother or save her. But now it's different; she's an adult.
I don't know if it was because Lu Yanchuan's blood had landed in my eyes, or because of the explosive emotions inside me.
Shen Li's eyes were bloodshot, and she practically forced the words out from her throat, "I won't leave! I will definitely take you out!"
She fumbled around and took out a small pendant from her person, pressed it against the car window, and with a forceful push, the sharp point on the pendant shattered the glass.
She kicked the glass off, then used the sharp blade that came out from the other end of the small ornament to cut the seatbelt.
After climbing out, he immediately dragged Lu Yanchuan out as well.
