The truck actually stopped less than a meter away from them.
"squeak--"
There was another sound, and the driver quickly stepped on the brakes, thus averting an accident.
In that instant, the previously frozen air finally dissipated.
Everyone in the car was still shaken.
The driver let out a long sigh of relief; despite the freezing winter weather, he was covered in sweat.
Xiao Zhang was so frightened that he clasped his hands together and kept saying, "God help me, that really scared me to death."
I thought I was going to die on the spot.
However, Xiao Zhang quickly turned around and asked, "Young Master, Young Madam, are you alright?"
In the back seat, the man's hand was still on the seatbelt, while the woman looked completely calm and composed.
This... seems a little different from what I imagined?
Xiao Zhang was stunned for a moment, but quickly he breathed a sigh of relief.
"It's alright, it's alright."
As he muttered to himself, Xiao Zhang suddenly remembered the big truck in front of him.
With a change in expression, Xiao Zhang immediately unbuckled his seatbelt and angrily walked towards the large truck in front of him.
This was in the middle of the intersection, where a car accident had almost happened. Now it was stopped in the middle of the road, and soon passersby gathered around.
From a meter away, Xiao Zhang shouted, "Get down!"
"How do you drive?! Don't you know you're driving in the wrong direction?"
...
Inside the car, Si Yunting slightly furrowed his delicate brows, then looked up at the woman in his arms and asked gently, "Were you frightened?"
He was alright, but the most important thing was her; he didn't know if she had been frightened.
To his surprise, the woman was even calmer than him, saying, "It's alright."
"Let Xiao Zhang finish what he needs to do and get in the car. We'll talk about it when we get back."
If she hadn't used her skill, the system should have declared the mission a failure by now.
His eyes lowered, and a faint, shimmering light flickered within them.
Rong Chang's expression was indifferent.
It seems she underestimated Bai Xue.
*
Since that day, the conflict between the two families has escalated, and Si Yunting has begun to suppress Chu Fan at work.
The man was cornered and on the verge of losing control.
In contrast, Bai Xue's life truly embodies that of a wealthy socialite.
After getting married, she didn't walk the runway anymore. She spent her days eating, drinking, having fun, getting her nails done from time to time, and going shopping and eating with friends.
Perhaps because she was living a carefree life, she hadn't bothered Rong Shang for a long time.
But her not coming doesn't mean Chu Fan won't come.
That afternoon, Rong Shang returned from the company and was watering flowers on the balcony of the villa when a black car drove up from not far away.
Even from several meters away, Rong Shang recognized Chu Fan at a glance from the balcony.
Her shimmering eyes lowered slightly, and she held a watering can in her hand.
After waiting for a while, the car in front of the door stopped.
The sound of the car starting and stopping came from behind. In the distance, Chu Fan squinted and looked up at the balcony.
Rong Chang smiled faintly.
Once their eyes met, she immediately took the watering can and poured the water down.
In an instant, "splash!", icy water was poured all over Chu Fan.
"ah!"
Enraged, Chu Fan shouted.
Rong Shang seemed to only just notice, "Ah, so it's my little nephew."
Little nephew?
Chu Fan's face darkened. "Yan Ran, I have something to say to you."
"Yan Ran?" The woman stopped in front of the balcony, her posture languid and elegant. She then put down the watering can and said to him, seemingly displeased, "You call me Yan Ran? Aren't you afraid I'll tell your uncle?"
Even without Chu Fan saying it, she knew that he had come here to ask her to put in a good word for him with Si Yunting.
