After getting into the car, Lu Wanzheng didn't call Xu Jingxing immediately, since it should be early morning for him according to the time difference.
Old Xu was so busy, Lu Wanzheng didn't want to disturb his peaceful sleep.
He simply sent a message to him, informing him that the cooperation with Shu Mi was finalized, and even the price had been agreed upon. All that was needed was for Xu Jingxing's people to handle the coordination.
After sending the message, Lu Wanzheng raised her hand, which had completely healed. There was no trace of injury on her hand; it was still as delicate and smooth as a baby's.
Unexpectedly, this turned out to be a blessing in disguise.
She remembered that the old woman who gave her the bracelet had said that it was because of her kindness that she received the bracelet.
Indeed, one should do good deeds when one has nothing to do, accumulating merit and promoting good, achieving two goals at once.
A light rain was falling outside the car, and the windshield wipers were working intermittently.
Because of the rain, the driver was driving slowly, and there was some traffic on the way back. Lu Wanzheng felt that the pedestrians outside the car with umbrellas were moving faster than the car itself.
The car radio was lazily playing love songs, which helped Lu Wanzheng pass the time.
Lu Wanzheng, who had closed her eyes to listen to the music, suddenly felt her body leaning forward uncontrollably.
There was an accident ahead, and the car braked suddenly. Lu Wanzheng was sitting in the back seat without a seatbelt. Due to inertia, her body leaned forward involuntarily. She immediately grabbed the handle on the roof to control herself.
Fortunately, the driver was driving very slowly, so the inertia wasn't too great; otherwise, Lu Wanzheng believed she would have definitely hit the seat in front of her.
Lu Wanzheng steadied herself and poked her head out from the back seat, "What's wrong?"
"Miss Lu, it seems there's been an accident up ahead."
The driver guessed it was an accident, not a traffic light, because he saw red and blue lights flashing ahead, which could be a police car or an ambulance.
Lu Wanzheng rolled down the car window, leaving a small gap. Sounds from outside entered the car through the gap, including the sound of a car horn.
"Can we take another route?"
"OK."
Because she took a different route, Lu Wanzheng arrived home a little later than expected.
The car stopped in front of the villa, and the driver honked the horn.
Upon hearing the noise, Aunt Ye grabbed an umbrella and went out to meet Lu Wanzheng.
Lu Wanzheng jumped out of the car, wanting the driver to stay and have dinner with her.
When the driver refused, he chuckled and said, "My wife is waiting for me at home for dinner, so I won't stay any longer. Miss Lu, please get some rest. I'll pick you up tomorrow morning."
Hearing the driver say that, Lu Wanzheng felt it was inappropriate to keep him. Eating with her family was the happiest thing every day.
The car started, drove away, and disappeared into the darkness.
The two returned to the inner room. Xiao Hua came out anxiously, carrying Potatoes, and looked Lu Wanzheng over carefully from head to toe. Only after confirming that she was alright did she breathe a sigh of relief.
"What's wrong?" Xiaohua's strange behavior puzzled her.
Aunt Ye said with a loving expression, "Xiao Hua started worrying as soon as you left the door, and kept checking the time. I don't know what she's thinking. I told her that you are a person of good judgment, but she's still in a hurry."
At this inopportune moment, Potato made an untimely meow, "Meow~" as if mocking Little Flower's cautiousness.
“I’m not just worried about that. I just saw the news that there was a major car accident on Binjiang Road. I remember Binjiang Road is near Yixin Coffee Shop, and you haven’t come back yet. I’m worried…”
