Bai Shu's expression changed drastically.
That little niece—
That lady—
What do you mean?!
She knew her niece was referring to her, but what did that lady mean? What did they want to do to her?!
Bai Shu had no doubt that if she went in now, she would not be treated well. She tiptoed out of the house without making a sound. Sure enough, her aunt and uncle did not notice that she had returned.
She turned and left home without hesitation, but didn't know where to go. Clutching her schoolbag strap, she stood blankly on both sides of the road.
The world is vast, yet she couldn't find a place to belong.
The inheritance left by my parents is all in the hands of my uncle and aunt.
They said they would return it to her when she turned eighteen, but now that she's getting older, judging from their current attitude towards her, it's not hard to imagine that they definitely won't return it to her when she turns eighteen.
We must get back our parents' inheritance!
We can't stay at my aunt's house anymore, but they have her adoption agreement. We should try to find a way to resolve this agreement, even if it means going to an orphanage. It would be better than staying at my aunt's house!
As Bai Shu was pondering, he didn't notice that he had slowly walked through a block. There was frequent traffic here, but there were no traffic lights or surveillance cameras, and the road was quite steep, so car accidents often happened.
Be careful when walking this path...
Before Bai Shu could even process the thought, a sudden screech of brakes echoed across the road. She looked up sharply and saw two cars crashing into each other in the middle of the road!
"Oh my god, there's been a car accident!"
"The front of the car is completely deformed! Help!"
Pedestrians on the roadside screamed and were about to move forward when someone quickly stopped them: "No! Look, the car is leaking oil and on fire! It'll explode!"
"If we do this, the car is on fire and it'll explode! Run!"
Several well-meaning people were trying to evacuate the crowd when, in the chaos, a petite figure slipped past them and rushed towards the scene of the car accident where the two vehicles had collided!
"Hey girl, don't go over there—the car's on fire, it'll explode!"
Bai Zhu ignored everything, her eyes fixed only on the overturned car. Her heart pounded with anxiety, and only one sentence echoed in her mind—
This is Mr. Xiao's car!
Help!
"Mr. Xiao! Xiao Lingchen! Xiao Lingchen—how are you? Are you conscious? Please say something!"
She never knew she could run so fast. In the blink of an eye, she was in front of the car. The black car body was overturned, the door was slightly deformed, and the scorching flames and heat waves rippled, burning her exposed arms.
Through the broken car window, she could see that all the airbags had deployed, blocking her view.
There was no sound inside the car. Bai Zhu looked around, picked up a stone, and started smashing the car window, quickly breaking a hole.
She reached inside to fumble for the car door switch, and when she finally managed to open it, her arm was covered in wet, bright red blood.
It's blood.
It was blindingly red.
With a bang, she forcefully pulled open the car door, and the airbag quickly deflated, revealing the unconscious man inside.
The man hung his head and remained motionless, a wound on his forehead from which blood dripped slowly, the blood covering his handsome face. Bai Shu had never seen him so weak.
What was even more shocking was the bloodstains all over his body, his torn suit revealing deep wounds, clearly indicating that he was seriously injured.
