Accident
"Oh."
Gu Pei sat in the back of the car and looked back calmly at his assistant who was looking at him with horror.
The assistant was looked at and smiled awkwardly.
"Boss, we need to go back to headquarters for a meeting first, and then we have a meeting in Lin City tomorrow." As the car entered the main road, the assistant continued, "But the weather forecast shows moderate rain tomorrow. Lin City is surrounded by mountains on three sides, so driving there will require taking a detour. Do you want to contact them and arrange for another day?"
Gu Pei's heart was on Lin Xunye. He left in a hurry this time and couldn't spend more time with Lin Xunye and Chengzi. Naturally, it would be best to resolve the issue as soon as possible.
Besides, it was not like he had not attended such impromptu meetings before, so moderate rain was nothing.
Nothing could stop him from seeing Aye.
"No need." Gu Pei said.
"Tomorrow morning at 8 o'clock, remember to be there on time."
Gu Pei said okay, as a worker he had no right to comment.
The assistant nodded yes repeatedly, and then drove to the company nervously when the boss suddenly smiled when he saw the message on the phone.
After being away for two months, there is still quite a backlog of things.
But Gu Pei was very efficient at work. After holding three meetings in one day, he dealt with the remaining issues clearly. He emphasized the matter about the charity organization and made a second donation in the name of Lin Xunye.
After finishing everything, he didn't have time to look at his phone until 11:30 in the evening.
On the phone, Lin Xunye replied to all the messages sent in the morning.
The latest one is a photo of Orange, with two voice messages on it.
Gu Pei clicked it, and Orange's childish, nasal voice began to play.
"Big Daddy, when will you come back? Orange misses you, and so does Daddy."
"Big Daddy, Orange wants to eat a small cake. Remember to bring it to Orange when you come back."
After the voice message ended, Gu Pei's physical fatigue was also dispelled a lot.
He pressed the voice message: "Big Daddy will be back in two days at the earliest. Can Chengzi stay with Daddy for the next few days?"
The message was sent and the video call popped up.
Gu Pei answered the call immediately, casually unbuttoned two buttons, and then buttoned them back up with one hand after seeing Chengzi.
Lin Xunye laughed teasingly.
Chengzi didn't understand why, but he was very happy to see Gu Pei.
"Daddy, please come back soon. Daddy misses you!" Orange had two little buns pointing up into the sky, and they moved with his movements as he spoke.
Lin Xunye was so itchy watching from behind that he grabbed one and played with it.
Orange immediately became like a poor little thing whose life had been strangled, and dared not move.
Gu Pei chuckled and softened his tone: "Chengzi, what did you eat tonight? Did you listen to your daddy?"
Orange thought about it anxiously, then said, "I ate the white basil cooked by my father, and the tofu. It was delicious! Orange is very obedient."
After he finished speaking, he glanced at Lin Xunye carefully.
Lin Xunye flicked his little bun and said, "You're crying because you didn't see your big daddy when you came back."
When Gu Pei left in the morning, he was worried that Chengzi would cry, so he bought him two dolls at the school gate and told him, "Daddy will be back in a couple of days. Chengzi, can you stay with him these few days?"
Orange didn't understand the difference between "in two days" and "these two days", so he agreed in a daze.
As a result, the only person who came to pick him up after school in the afternoon was Lin Xunye. When he asked, he found out that Gu Pei had already left.
Because of this, Orange cried for five minutes and was finally coaxed by Lin Xunye's spinach lollipop.
Gu Pei's heart softened. He recalled the child-soothing techniques he had learned online and tried to be friendly, but his expression was stiff. "Tell Chengzi a story, okay?"
Lin Xunye: “…?”
A horror story?
Chengzi was also confused by Gu Pei's expression.
He asked weakly: "Should I listen?"
Lin Xunye couldn't hold it in anymore. He coaxed Chengzi into the house and laughed at his phone until his whole body was shaking and his face turned pink.
Gu Pei looked at him quietly and smiled, then clicked on the screen recording.
Aye is so cute, I have to record it.
Lin Xunye finished laughing, wiped away the tears from the corners of his eyes, and stopped laughing. He said seriously, "I checked the weather forecast. There will be moderate rain in Hai City tomorrow. Please be careful."
Gu Pei: "Okay, absolutely safe."
Lin Xunye laughed and scolded: "Don't set a flag, Chengzi and I are waiting for you at home."
Gu Pei unbuttoned his shirt again, revealing a tooth mark and some deep scratches on his chest, leaving him naked in front of Lin Xunye.
Lin Xunye cursed inwardly as "pervert" and quickly hung up the video.
I typed "good night" and sent it over. He was still worried, his heart was beating fast, so he sent it again, "Be careful."
......
"Boss, it's raining so heavily. There's a traffic jam here. I might be half an hour late." The assistant stood in the rain and anxiously called Gu Pei.
Gu Pei is not a ruthless businessman and will not make things difficult for his subordinates regardless of objective factors.
He walked out holding an umbrella.
"I'll leave first. You and Xiao Li will arrive later. Drive slowly." He hung up the phone and the homepage was the weather forecast.
The weather forecast shows that the rain will ease in an hour.
Raindrops drifted obliquely into the umbrella and hit the phone screen, blurring the message at the top: "Satellite signal is weak, please refer to actual conditions."
Gu Pei automatically ignored the prompt and put the phone in his pocket.
Before leaving, he sent a voice message to Lin Xunye.
Lin Xunye resumed live streaming last night and continued until two in the morning. He is sleeping soundly now.
Last night, Gu Pei went to the live broadcast room as usual and sent gifts one by one, and then sent the name "Lin Xunye".
Although Gu Pei did not confess to him that the [Xun] in the live broadcast room was himself, Lin Xunye had already guessed it.
Instead of "Lin Xunye," he wrote "Gu Pei," and after the broadcast ended, he sent a private message to Gu Pei, asking him, "Are you satisfied? My wild husband."
He is A Ye’s husband, and also “Ye” husband.
A faint smile escaped from his curved lips, but the thought of Lin Xunye made Gu Pei's mouth unable to lower its corners.
......
Dark clouds were floating over Hai City, and large clouds extended to the highway, covering the road that Gu Pei had to pass.
The heavy raindrops merged into the traffic flow as the shiny black car passed by, splashing muddy water wherever the tires passed, hitting the car windows randomly.
The windshield wipers were working smoothly, and Gu Pei drove methodically and attentively.
When passing a sharp turn, Gu Pei slowed down the car and turned the steering wheel slowly.
The rain was getting heavier, and Gu Pei had a feeling that something was wrong. On a flat road, he turned on the car radio and tuned it to the weather forecast channel.
"A strong cold front from the north is moving eastward and southward, meeting with warm and humid air from the south. The fierce collision of cold and warm air will bring large-scale rainfall. Severe convective weather may occur in some areas, and Hai City will also usher in the first heavy rainfall of this season. People going out please pay attention to safety."
Gu Pei turned the steering wheel to the right and changed to the right lane.
As the moderate rain turned into heavy rain, the wipers gradually became ineffective, and Gu Pei had to determine the direction while maintaining the minimum speed requirement of the highway.
Five minutes later, Gu Pei saw a yellow warning sign on the side of the road. He recognized it - it was a warning sign for dangerous mountain roads.
Gu Pei's eyelids twitched and his heart became uneasy.
It can't be such a coincidence.
Next, Gu Pei remained vigilant and did not dare to relax even for a moment.
But with the heavy rain, some large rocks rolled down from the mountain, and some cars had no time to dodge and were hit directly.
Gu Pei glanced at the sign and breathed a sigh of relief.
The nearest exit is still one kilometer away. As long as he holds on a little longer, he will soon be safe.
But the opposite happened.
Two minutes later, the tires of the car in front suddenly slipped and crashed into the mountain.
In an instant, the mountain soil, softened by the rain, fell down in pieces.
Gu Pei was surrounded by rain and mud. Panicking, he quickly slammed on the brakes to avoid crashing into the car in front of him. However, the car behind him was unfortunately obscured by the falling mud and didn't realize the car in front had stopped, so it continued driving.
Gu Pei honked his horn, but by the time the car behind him realized something was wrong, it was too late.
The moment the car behind hit him, Gu Pei only had time to lift his feet away. He heard a loud crash in his ears, and his chest was squeezed by the deployed airbag with such great force that he felt his internal organs were displaced.
A trickle of blood trickled from his mouth as he struggled to crawl out, but the next second, the situation took a turn for the worse.
Gu Pei lay on the airbag, watching the car behind him swaying left and right on the highway like a headless fly due to tire slippage.
With a "bang", the three cars collided.
Under the huge tremor, the mountain shook, and the large rocks that had been shaky for a long time were pried open and fell one after another like dumplings.
Among them, the largest one hit the roof of Gu Pei's car squarely.
The originally narrow space inside the car was suddenly reduced, and Gu Pei's body, which he had barely straightened up, was bent by the roof, and he couldn't stop crying out in pain.
Suddenly, he felt his head getting hot.
After taking two hard breaths, Gu Pei reached out his hand to his forehead and felt a warm, sticky touch.
It's blood.
He pretended to be calm and rolled down the car window with trembling hands, hoping that the cool air outside would bring him a moment of clarity.
However, the accident had happened so suddenly that the following vehicles were hit by falling rocks, leaving the highway in ruins. Many survivors escaped from their cars, and half-grown children stood in the rain, wailing.
For a moment, cries and screams filled the highway.
Gu Pei's head hurt even more.
He wanted to find his cell phone to call for help, but the accident happened too suddenly and the blood kept flowing all over his face. He couldn't even open his eyes and his energy dissipated with the blood gushing out.
Everything in front of his eyes went dark and his head was splitting with pain.
Before he fainted, he had only one thought.
It seems like he's...going to break his promise.
......
Gu Pei covered his head in shock, standing in the unfamiliar ward.
No, it wasn't unfamiliar, but the ward where he had lived in his previous life.
The person lying on the bed was himself in his previous life. He suffered from pheromone disorder and could not control himself, so he had to be tied to the bed by force.
Gu Pei didn't understand why he was here.
He had just been in a car accident and might even be dying.
But now he has returned to his previous life out of thin air, still as a bystander.
Just as he was trying to find a way to go back, he saw Lin Xunye walk in, accompanied by Lin Gaoyuan and Gu's father.
Gu Pei frowned and walked up to Lin Xunye: "Aye, why are you here, and are you with Lin Gaoyuan?"
Gu Pei had no memory of this, and he didn't understand why Lin Gaoyuan appeared with his A Ye.
Lin Xunye passed through his body and walked straight to the bedside, as if he didn't see Gu Pei.
This is indeed the case.
The current Gu Pei is a spirit, a third person who does not belong to the previous life.
He could only see Lin Xunye's face full of sadness, as if he was distressed, and he reached out to hold his hand as if in disbelief.
Lying on the hospital bed, he saw Lin Gaoyuan behind Lin Xunye and his eyes were bloodshot. He held Lin Xunye's hand and roared, "Brother, go!"
However, the next second, his A Ye was restrained by the people brought by Lin Gaoyuan and fell to his knees.
Lin Gaoyuan asked with a sinister smile: "Lin Buye, do you choose him or yourself?"
Gu Pei's attempt to stop him was blocked by an invisible barrier. In an instant, he seemed to have been transported back to his previous life. He could only be restrained on the hospital bed helplessly, watching Lin Xunye make his choice.
