Jian Yu silently poured himself a glass of water.
After finishing the drink, he gave an instruction.
Huo Yunzhen was driving his newly purchased fully autonomous vehicle home when, as he turned a corner, the dashboard suddenly flashed a few times, and then the steering wheel automatically changed direction, and the accelerator was turned up to the maximum.
Before Huo Yunzhen could react, the fully automatic car shot off the road like an arrow and crashed heavily into a large rock in the distance.
It broke and deformed on the spot.
It fell to the ground again, and a dozen seconds later, it made a loud thud.
The entire vehicle was engulfed in flames.
Xu Que probably didn't care about Old Madam Huo's death.
But Xu Que would be devastated if Huo Yunzhen got into trouble.
Xu Que will be extremely busy from now on, and probably won't have time to target her anymore.
Jian Yu felt that she no longer needed to be so cautious.
A constant feeling of hunger crept into my stomach.
Besides rice, Anke's family only had a few dry loaves of bread.
Despite feeling unwell, Jian Yu got out of bed and cooked a pot of rice porridge, and also ordered a table of takeout.
I just got my revenge, so consider this a celebration.
Someone passing by the accident scene called the police.
When the police arrived, the fire was still burning, so they had to find a way to put it out first.
After the fire was extinguished, the car was completely burned beyond recognition, and the person in the driver's seat was unrecognizable.
Xu Que received the call about Huo Yunzhen's death while she was at the hospital. She was trembling all over and couldn't say a word.
how so?
She had just angered her mother-in-law to death, and before she could even rejoice, she lost her beloved son.
With a thud as the cast was being applied, Xu Que ran outside like a madman.
Huo An was also taken aback when he received the message; his thoughts differed from Xu Que's.
His first reaction was retribution!
Is it because his wife angered his mother to death, and he didn't seek justice for her, that his mother is now taking revenge on him, her unfilial son?
It wasn't that he didn't want to seek justice for his mother, but he couldn't do it openly. Otherwise, the fact that his mother had angered his grandmother to death would make Huo Yunzhen lose face.
He had already decided that after the funeral, he would send Xu Que abroad to stay alone for a few years.
Huo Tingzhen also felt it was retribution.
Only Huo Qizhen seemed to be deep in thought. Could there really be such a coincidence in the world?
Just to be on the safe side, let's have someone investigate the cause first.
Xu Que sat in the back seat, urging the driver to drive faster.
The driver ignored the warnings and continued driving within the prescribed speed limit.
"Can't you drive a little faster?"
Xu Que looked at the passing vehicles on the roadside and roared.
The driver only glanced at her in the rearview mirror and continued at the same speed.
"hurry up!"
Before Xu Que could finish speaking, he felt a sharp pain in his neck.
Then she knew nothing more.
The driver pulled over to the side of the road, and the Huo family servant opened the car door, handed the box to the person waiting by the roadside, and then sat back down.
The driver checked his watch and turned off the car.
When Huo An arrived at the accident site, his face was already covered in tears. He sat in the car, too exhausted to get out.
I should have known better than to buy Huo Yunzhen a fully automatic car.
If there had been a driver, perhaps the accident wouldn't have happened.
Xu Que failed to show up and could not be reached by phone; no one alerted Huo An to this unusual situation.
By the time Huo An remembered her, three or four hours had passed.
It was because an elder of the Huo family personally called to interrogate Xu Que about her location: "I've checked the living room surveillance footage, where is Xu Que?"
Huo Qizhen actually showed the living room surveillance footage to his clansmen.
Huo An gritted his teeth in anger, "Didn't I tell them not to leak the surveillance footage?"
"In your eyes, your mother is not as important as Xu Que, is that right?"
"No," Huo An hurriedly denied, "Yun Zhen also had an accident, I..."
Huo An was too upset to speak.
The elders also remained silent.
"Never mind, you guys take care of Yunzhen's funeral arrangements first."
Huo An looked at his assistant, "Where is Madam?"
The assistant quickly explained the situation, "We can't get in touch with your wife."
"Keep calling, and if you still can't get in touch, call the police."
Just as the assistant was about to make a call, Xu Que's car arrived.
The driver got out and apologized first, "Sir, I'm so sorry! My wife was in so much pain on the way that she fainted from crying, so I took her to a nearby hospital, which is why we were delayed."
"Is your wife in the hospital?"
The driver shook his head. "My wife woke up as soon as we arrived at the hospital. She started crying and wanted to see Young Master Yunzhen, so we rushed to the accident site. Then she fainted again. This time she woke up quickly, crying and vomiting. I stopped the car on the overpass and let her get out and rest for a while. Once she felt better, we continued on our way here."
"Then why didn't you answer the phone?"
The maid got out of the back seat. "Madam cried all the way, constantly calling Young Master Yunzhen until her phone battery was completely drained before she finally fell asleep from exhaustion."
Upon hearing this, the assistant jogged over and opened the other car door.
Xu Que's phone was on the car door; when he picked it up, it was indeed switched off.
Huo An was furious, but seeing that Xu Que's cast wasn't even finished, he couldn't vent his anger. "Fine, take her to the hospital to get her cast first, then take her to a hotel to rest!"
The Huo family members were all at home, so he didn't dare let them go back.
At least let him calm down the people of his tribe first.
The assistant was assigned to help take care of Xu Que.
Xu Que slept soundly the whole way, and even after being put on the hotel bed, she didn't wake up.
The driver shook his arm. "Contact the sir directly if there's anything."
The assistant said, "The master told me to contact him less these few days, and to call you if I need anything."
These past few days have been filled with the funeral of Old Madam Huo, the investigation and handling of Huo Yunzhen's car accident, and the Huo clan members who are preparing to cause trouble. Any one of these things is enough to make Huo An suffer.
The driver sighed, "Alright! You two stay here. Call me if anything happens."
The maid said to the driver, "Could you get us a room next door? We can't possibly sleep in the same room as the madam."
The assistant nodded, "Two rooms, one for each person."
She was clearly in charge of the group's work, not a nanny at all.
Without a word, the driver ran downstairs and booked two rooms.
When the driver handed over the room key, he specifically instructed the maid, "You have a lot of experience taking care of people, so here's the room key for the lady. You need to keep a close eye on her."
The assistant nodded faster than a maid, "Yes, yes, yes, you come in and keep an eye on things. I've never taken care of anyone before, I'll just be your helper."
The maid replied, "Okay. You can stay in the room tonight; I can handle it myself."
The assistant was overjoyed, "Great! What are we eating later?"
The maid said, "Madam needs to sleep for a while, why don't we go downstairs and get something to eat?"
The driver had no objections.
The three of them went to a nearby restaurant for hot pot.
At the funeral hall of Old Madam Huo, the head bodyguard quietly approached Huo Qizhen, "Young Master! It's all done. Xu Que is at the *** Hotel."
"Um."
In the hotel, Xu Que woke up groggily, her first feeling being excruciating pain.
Secondly, my head hurts.
Aside from the pain, she really didn't feel anything else.
The servant fed Xu Que some water and food, and after eating, Xu Que fell into a drowsy sleep again.
The assistant was engrossed in his game and didn't pay much attention, completely unaware that Xu Que's gaze was off.
