On the other side, Meng Shen was already surrounded by the crowd.
"Brother Shen, is Sister Yu really alright?"
"The ambulance is on its way, should we cancel it?"
"My family has some connections at the hospital. Should I call now to schedule an appointment with a specialist?"
...
The group exchanged glances and made comments, their faces filled with worry, as if they genuinely cared about Yu Wan.
Meng Shen concealed the mockery in his eyes, put on an indifferent expression, and waved his hand, saying, "Cough, what could it be? Yu Xiaowan was driving while fatigued."
The crowd looked at each other, and all breathed a sigh of relief, believing it to be true, but very few of them actually believed it.
"Drive it back for me." Meng Shen tossed his sports car keys to Huang San, then returned to the blue Cayenne, closed the door and windows to block the probing gazes.
He took out his phone to set up navigation, only to realize he was still on the phone with Tang Yue. His hand trembled, and the phone crashed to the ground.
-
Unbeknownst to Yu Wan, Meng Shen had already secretly betrayed her. He dared not make a phone call, and could only secretly send a text message.
Buzz...
The phone rang again. When Meng Shen saw the reply in the text message, he almost choked. He turned his head and said in surprise, "Yu Xiaowan, no one is taking Tang Yue home. He's walking to catch the bus."
Take the bus?
Bus!!!
Yu Wan opened her eyes, the slight drowsiness vanishing instantly. "What happened?"
Meng Shen explained, "After you left, everyone dispersed, and no one noticed him." He put it quite tactfully, but in reality, those people were eager to see a good show and would never be willing to give him a ride.
Yu Wan suddenly felt a little irritated, but she raised her eyebrows and sneered, "Since we're bankrupt, we have to face reality and learn how to be an ordinary person."
"But I checked, and it takes at least an hour to walk from the club to the bus stop. I checked the weather forecast, and it says it will rain..."
Before the words were finished, a deafening roar erupted, followed by flashes of lightning and thunder. And, seemingly out of nowhere, dark clouds had gathered on the horizon.
"Yu Xiaowan, why don't we go back and pick him up?" Meng Shen suggested. Although the Tang family had fallen, its foundation was still intact. If Tang Yue was offended too badly, he might turn around and retaliate against the Yu and Meng Groups in the future. Besides, his father had repeatedly told him not to suppress Tang Yue these days. If he knew what had happened today, he would skin him alive.
Yu Wan frowned: "I'm not going! Isn't his ex-fiancée there too? What are you meddling in..."
boom--
The roar of sports cars filled the air as the two vehicles sped off into the distance, one after the other.
Meng Shen said, "Hey, isn't that red Ferrari Gao Lingyang's car?"
Yu Wan frowned even more deeply.
-
"Boom!"
The wind howled and thunder roared. Before long, large raindrops pelted down from the dark blue sky, instantly turning into a torrential downpour that swept across the land.
The road was surrounded by wilderness, with nowhere to take shelter from the rain, and he was instantly soaked to the bone. Tang Yue looked up at what lay ahead, his thin lips gradually tightening.
Jiangcheng is located in the north, and the weather is already cold in October. Especially after it rains, the temperature drops sharply.
The cold air seeped into his limbs and bones along his skin, and he felt a little cold. Although this chill was far less than the loneliness he felt sitting alone in the top-floor office of the Tang Corporation on countless nights in the past, it was still chilling.
Suddenly.
Tang Yue heard the hum of a sports car and couldn't help but look up. He saw the familiar blue Cayenne, and a slight smile appeared on his lips, which he quickly suppressed.
The car was parked next to him.
The car window rolled down, and Meng Shen's face was the first thing he saw, causing him a slight disappointment. There was no one in the passenger seat. He looked through the window towards the back seat and suddenly met a pair of arrogant and smug eyes. He chuckled softly, his mood instantly brightening.
I don't know if it's because she really came back, or because... she wasn't sitting in the passenger seat of another man.
Meng Shen was puzzled, but still said, "Get in the car, we'll give you a ride back to the city."
Tang Yue nodded and said, "Thank you."
He readily agreed, walked to the back seat, opened the car door, and bent down to sit inside.
A chill mixed with rain swept in, only to be instantly kept out of the car.
The man's tall and imposing figure suddenly made the atmosphere inside the car incredibly oppressive.
Yu Wan tensed up and backed away, her back against the car door. Then, remembering that it was her car, she moved back with a righteous air and said fiercely, "Get in front."
Tang Yue looked at her, his eyes burning and bright: "I can't get out of here. My calf is cramping. It's probably because my body got frozen after being caught in the rain."
Yu Wan: "..."
"How about you rub it for me?" he said reluctantly. "I can also tip you the top rate."
Yu Wan almost couldn't catch her breath again.
She silently repeated "obey the law, obey the law..." twenty times in her mind before gritting her teeth and saying, "You can't afford the price I'm asking for."
Tang Yue nodded and said, "You're right. After all, I'm bankrupt and I'm 1 billion yuan in debt. Let alone 100,000, I can't even afford 100 yuan."
Yu Wan looked up in surprise. Tsk, he has a pretty clear understanding of himself.
However, the next moment...
"But are you really not going to consider contacting me?"
Yu Wan's face darkened instantly, and she kicked the seat in front of her.
"If you're not looking, get out."
-
The journey back to the city was marked by silence.
Meng Shen glanced at the two people in the back seat playing on their phones in the rearview mirror every now and then, his gossip-loving expression barely concealed.
Just as the car passed the tollbooth, a sudden "Achoo!" rang out inside the vehicle, quite abruptly.
Yu Wan frowned slightly.
"Sorry." Tang Yue had barely finished speaking when he sneezed several more times.
Meng Shen hesitated for a moment about how to address him. Calling him "President Tang" sounded sarcastic, "Young Master Tang" was inappropriate, and "Mr. Tang" was too unfamiliar. In the end, he simply ignored the form of address and asked directly, "Your face looks very red. Could you have a fever?"
My head feels dizzy and lightheaded, which is quite typical of fever symptoms. Tang Yue nodded and said, "It should be. Could you please drop me off at any pharmacy? I'll buy some fever reducers and take them; maybe that will help me get through it."
Yu Wan paused for a moment while operating the game.
Meng Shen disagreed, saying, "I'd rather take you to the hospital. It's not like it's a short drive." He then looked at Yu Wan in the rearview mirror, who had a "keep away" expression, and asked for her opinion, "Right, Xiao Wan?"
Yu Wan remained silent.
Meng Shenmo agreed and reset the navigation to the nearest hospital.
"Really, it's not necessary," Tang Yue refused. "Medical treatment is too expensive, I don't have the money."
Meng Shen paused, then frowned: "Didn't you just receive 30 million?"
Tang Yue gave a wry smile: "It's all been given to the creditors."
