Bai Xiaoxuan's powerful words garnered him many fans, but he ended the broadcast right on time after delivering his warning.
If it weren't for the system's seven-day check-in task, Bai Xiaoxuan wouldn't have planned to go live at all today, given his extremely bad mood.
"Xiao Xuan".
Shi Yuqi walked up to him and, seeing the young man's indignant expression, took the initiative to speak.
"How about I help you contact someone to catch that truck driver? With the internet so readily available these days, we should be able to catch the culprit."
Bai Xiaoxuan opened his mouth, about to say something, when he received a phone call.
The call was from the Chengdong Police Station, saying that they had found his number on a cell phone belonging to a body that had been hit by a truck and was mangled beyond recognition, and they hoped he could provide clues.
Bai Xiaoxuan was somewhat tired. "Wasn't this the kind of thing you investigated? Do you think I have some kind of immense influence that allows me to know the reason why my father was hit by a car?"
“Mr. Bai, we know that your father has caused you a lot of bad feelings, but please cooperate actively. All your current acts of resistance will bring you a lot of trouble.”
"So what are you planning to do with me?"
Bai Xiaoxuan snorted.
"Because my father was killed in a car accident, I should be detained now, and preferably someone should prove that I am the one who killed him?"
The voice on the other end of the phone was silent for a moment before speaking again.
"Please don't be so angry. We all understand how you feel. However, resisting at this time won't help. As a broadcaster, you should know the importance of obeying the law!"
After a long silence, Bai Xiaoxuan suddenly smiled.
"Yes, I should cooperate. Then may I ask, where was my father's body found, and where is the driver who caused the accident?"
"What baffles us is that the car was driverless! That means your father was very likely murdered!"
Bai Xiaoxuan remained silent for a long time before speaking again.
"All I can say is that karma is a cycle, and retribution is inevitable. He kidnapped my mother, forcing a perfectly good college student to spend her entire life in a poor, remote area, and then caused my brother and me to be unable to hold our heads high for half our lives. Even God can't stand such a person!"
Captain Zhao on the other end of the phone hadn't expected to encounter such a troublemaker, who showed no intention of backing down at all.
Just as he was about to forcefully summon Bai Xiaoxuan, the inspection team sent a message.
After he put his phone away and listened to the full accident report, Captain Zhao spoke to Bai Xiaoxuan apologetically.
"Mr. Bai, I am very sorry for the trouble I caused you earlier. Please forgive me! Our technical investigation team has thoroughly examined your father's death. The truck was originally parked on an uphill road. The driver got out to buy cigarettes, but carelessly forgot to turn off the engine. The handbrake failed, leading to this tragedy!"
This is allowed?
Bai Xiaoxuan frowned, but quickly realized that since the system said he could have his wishes fulfilled, this fickle bastard was bound to have a bad time.
Those who do such things must naturally bear the corresponding consequences.
"Mr. Bai, are you still listening? The other party is now seeking your opinion on this matter, hoping you can provide a solution. After all, it is entirely their responsibility, and they are willing to agree to appropriate compensation!"
"Let's do what needs to be done. My father was standing in the middle of the road, so he also bears some responsibility. However, I hope you can convey this to the driver: since he caused this tragedy, he should be responsible for all of my father's funeral expenses, and all compensation should be donated to a Hope Primary School!"
"What!"
Hearing this, Captain Zhao was very surprised.
"You don't want this compensation? Mr. Bai, we've investigated; your father left behind a lot of debt, you..."
“I severed my father-son relationship with him a long time ago, and this money would be more useful to someone who needs it than to me.”
After making his decision, Bai Xiaoxuan decisively hung up the phone.
Turning around, he saw Shi Yuqi looking excited.
"do what?"
Shi Yuqi lost control and threw herself into Bai Xiaoxuan's arms, her voice choked with sobs.
"Fool! You could have taken it easier, so why did you choose this path?"
Bai Xiaoxuan was stunned for a moment, then smiled and patted Shi Yuqi.
"What's there to worry about? I prefer doing what I'm supposed to do to getting money easily. Once the compensation from this car accident goes to those who need it more, I can finally relax a bit."
This sentence has a greater impact on people's hearts.
Shi Yuqi had only fallen a little in love with Bai Xiaoxuan, but now, after witnessing Bai Xiaoxuan's choices on matters of principle, she completely knew what to do.
"From now on, you can wait for me when it comes to rankings, I'll be there anytime!"
Hearing Shi Yuqi's words, Bai Xiaoxuan smiled and shook his head.
"Fool. If I'm going to date you, our relationship isn't just about being the top fan and a young heartthrob. My money is your money, isn't it? Instead of racking your brains trying to give me your money, why don't you join me in making money?"
Shi Yuqi's eyes lit up.
She might not be good at other things, but making money is definitely her forte as the president of a listed company.
Shi Yuqi giggled as she grabbed Bai Xiaoxuan's arm.
"Sure, I'll do whatever you say when it comes to making money off you. But I'm really curious, how do you plan to handle this car accident and your father's death? You're a streamer, your influence is considerable."
Bai Xiaoxuan nodded.
“I’ve already thought this through, but as I said, I’ve severed ties with my father, so that compensation money naturally doesn’t belong to me. I’ve always been solely responsible for my brother and my sick mother, and that won’t change!”
You're wrong!
Shi Yuqi held Bai Xiaoxuan's hand and intertwined their fingers.
"From now on, your family is my family, and I will use my..."
Bai Xiaoxuan gently kissed Shi Yuqi's chin and then smiled.
"Just be there for me and witness my growth; nothing else matters!"
At that moment, Shi Yuqi felt like she was falling in love.
How embarrassing! I'm a respectable person, how can I act like a lovestruck young woman over matters of the heart?
Are you hungry?
Bai Xiaoxuan affectionately pinched Shi Yuqi's cheek.
"Come to my place, my landlady is a great cook!"
Just as Shi Yuqi was about to speak, the driver stared at Bai Xiaoxuan with a wary expression.
"Boy, what do you plan to do to our young lady? How could someone of her status be with you..."
"Of course I'll go!"
Shi Yuqi interrupted the driver and then smiled at Bai Xiaoxuan.
"Ignore him, let's go eat!"
