Chapter 2035: Foot Thorn
"Come with me. We also need to identify the deceased," the traffic police said, and then looked at her again: "But please try to control your emotions and don't disturb the scene."
Mu Xin wiped away her tears and nodded seriously.
She followed the traffic police and came to Fu Zichen.
Mu Xin bent her knees and squatted down, almost kneeling beside him, then slowly lifted the white shroud with trembling fingers.
When the deceased's face slowly appeared in front of her, Mu Xin was stunned for a moment.
Long hair, beautiful eyes slightly open, long eyelashes that seemed to be able to blink, pale V-shaped face splattered with blood...
This is clearly a woman.
Mu Xin looked at the traffic police beside her: "Is this the only victim?"
The traffic police nodded and said that this was the owner of the car, and the others were passengers on the bus. They were slightly or seriously injured and had been sent to the hospital.
Now Mu Xin understood why the traffic policeman showed such a surprised and inquiring expression when she said that she was the deceased's girlfriend.
Because the deceased was a woman, not Fu Zichen!
Mu Xin's body softened and she sat down on the ground. She wanted to laugh, but facing the poor victims, her feeling of relief was inappropriate.
So she gently covered the poor girl with the white cloth again, silently saying "I'm sorry."
Then she stood up and apologized to the traffic police, saying that she had recognized the wrong person and did not know the victim because her boyfriend also drove a similar car and was driving on the same road.
After explaining clearly, Mu Xin lifted the cordon again and left the scene of the accident.
She looked back and breathed a sigh of relief as if she had survived a disaster.
Just as she was about to walk back with her head down, a pair of black leather shoes appeared in her sight.
She slowly looked up and saw Fu Zichen standing in front of her wearing a black windbreaker.
The moment before, she thought he had died in a car accident, but at this moment, he was standing in front of her.
In fact, Mu Xin just wanted to rush to him and hug him tightly.
But he hadn't lost his mind yet.
She just stood in front of him with red eyes.
Fu Zichen also stared deeply at her face, "Who were you looking for just now?"
Mu Xin glanced towards the car accident and said, "I thought it was my friend who was in the accident. I recognized the wrong person."
He smiled faintly, as if he had seen through her clumsy lie.
Mu Xin had no choice but to change the subject: "I thought you had already arrived at the airport, but I didn't expect you to be stuck here..."
Before she could finish her words, Fu Zichen had already come to her, pulled her arm and held her in his arms.
"I heard it," he said.
"What did you hear?"
"You said you were my girlfriend."
"I just said that. What if the traffic police doesn't let me through? Anyway, don't take it seriously..." Mu Xin struggled to break free from his arms.
But Fu Zichen hugged her tightly: "I saw you crying. You obviously care about me, why can't you accept me?"
His voice was already hoarse, and after a slight pause, he continued, "As long as you say don't leave, I will stay. No matter how many problems there are between us, we can solve them together and face them together, okay?"
Mu Xin opened her mouth, she felt the surge of emotions in her heart pushing her forward.
Maybe she should give them both another chance...
"you……"
Before he could finish his words, his cell phone rang.
Mu Xin stopped and said, "You answer the phone first."
"No rush."
He took out his phone and pressed the mute button without even looking at the screen, continuing to stare into her eyes: "Me what?"
At this time, the road was cleared, the vehicles started up, and slowly passed through the emergency passage on the side of the accident scene one by one.
Fu Zichen's car was still parked, and the driver behind him had already started honking his horn to urge him to go faster.
The traffic was congested and it was difficult to change lanes. If Fu Zichen didn't move, the cars behind him would have to wait.
Mu Xin glanced at the long queue behind his car and said, "You get in first."
Fu Zichen took her hand and walked towards the car.
Mu Xin said, "You go first. I'll just wait for Uncle Zeng's car."
Fu Zichen, however, held her hand tightly and resolutely led her to the passenger side, opening the door for her. "It's too dangerous to wait for a car on the side of the road. Get in my car first. We're going this way anyway."
Mu Xin still wanted to refuse, but the horn honking at Fu Zichen became louder.
Mu Xin didn't want to cause congestion, so she had to get in the car.
Afterwards, Fu Zichen also got in the car and drove her towards the airport.
After Mu Xin got in the car, she called Zeng Bo and told him not to worry about her, because she had met Fu Zichen and was in Fu Zichen's car.
As the car passed the accident scene, Mu Xin looked at the victims again. While she was glad that it was not Fu Zichen, she also mourned for the girl who died unfortunately.
Whose daughter is she and who loves her?
Why was she speeding? Was she ignoring traffic rules or was she in a hurry to do something?
Is there anyone she wanted to see but didn’t? Is there anything she wanted to say but didn’t?
No matter what the answer was, the moment the accident happened, the girl had no chance.
So, since he was still alive, should he reveal all his feelings to Fu Zichen and work with him to find a way to reconcile? To avoid any regrets.
Turning to look at Fu Zichen, his deep facial features were less childish than three years ago, and more calm and mature. Time waits for no one. Perhaps in the blink of an eye, they will all be old.
Fu Zichen also turned his head to look at her: "What was that unfinished sentence just now?"
Mu Xin, who had just witnessed the tragic scene of a traffic accident, saw that he was distracted and even the car slightly deviated from the lane, and hurriedly said, "You drive first and we'll talk about it when we get to the airport."
Fu Zichen smiled: "Okay."
At this time, Fu Zichen's cell phone rang again. Because the phone was placed in the middle of the car's center console, Mu Xin glanced at it unintentionally, and then saw the caller's name displayed on his phone screen.
Fu Zichen picked up the phone, took a look at it, hung up, and put it in his pocket.
After witnessing this series of actions, Mu Xin felt choked up and didn't want to say the words she hadn't said.
The caller was Shi Meng.
It’s not that he can’t make friends with Shi Meng. It’s his freedom to make friends with whoever he wants. It’s just that the things between him and Shi Meng are like thorns in Mu Xin’s feet.
When I'm not walking, the pain is not obvious, and I even feel like the thorn is no longer there.
But once I started walking, all I felt was pain and awkwardness...
So as long as Shi Meng is still among them, Mu Xin will not look back.
Half an hour later, Fu Zichen's car and Zeng Bo's car drove into the airport parking lot one after another.
Uncle Zeng helped Mu Xin take down the luggage. Mu Xin told Uncle Zeng not to take it in and to go back to the manor early. After all, it was getting late and it would be uncomfortable for her eyes to drive at night.
Zeng Bo looked at Fu Zichen and said with a smile: "Mr. Fu, then I will leave Mu Xin to you."
