Shattered by Fate, Restored by Truth

Chapter 1174: An Unexpected Car Accident

Su Wanxin felt her mood lift after listening to Chen Lei’s report on the latest situation.

She thought about the Troy Company side—Fu Ziqian and Alex’s collaboration was so tight, now it was likely in a frantic mess. Moreover, Fu Shihan would never miss such a good opportunity, Fu Ziqian and others wishing to make a comeback and hit the Fu Group hard was something they’d probably never achieve in their lifetimes.

Su Wanxin looked at the scenery along the way outside the window, smiling as she chatted with Chen Lei. Lin Rui was driving and enjoying the moment until suddenly a black SUV came at them on the wrong side of the road—

The steering wheel abruptly turned to the side, and the car’s direction changed accordingly.

Su Wanxin realized what had happened, and in an instant, many past images flashed through her mind: unexpected car accident, intense crash, hopeless darkness.

Lin Rui gripped the steering wheel tightly. As the car narrowly avoided the opponent’s collision, knocking over the trash can and electric bike by the roadside, and finally scraped against a big tree before stopping, he felt like he’d lost half his life.

"Are you okay?!"

He looked frantically at Su Wanxin beside him, his voice trembling as he asked.

This ancestor of a lady, if anything were to happen to her, he could imagine how Fu Shihan would deal with him—mercilessly.

Su Wanxin, pale-faced, was clutching her seatbelt, her eyes somewhat unfocused, seemingly not yet recovering from the recent shock.

Her phone was thrown to the floor, and Chen Lei’s panicked voice could be heard. He heard Su Wanxin’s scream and Lin Rui’s instinctive curse, and was half scared out of his wits.

"Wan God, Wan God! Don’t scare me, are you okay?" Lin Rui pushed Su Wanxin’s shoulder, met her gaze, and licked his dry lower lip: "I’ll take you to the hospital now, don’t be afraid!"

"I’m... fine." Su Wanxin took a deep breath to calm her emotions, still startled as she looked outside the window. She saw the car that had rushed out to hit her and also saw the unfamiliar yet familiar face behind the windshield.

It was Cheng Yao.

Su Wanxin saw it, and Lin Rui noticed too. He cursed, glanced at Su Wanxin’s belly, and quickly made a choice between taking Su Wanxin to the hospital or getting out to deal with Cheng Yao.

If it weren’t for the time constraint, he would rather be surrounded, photographed, and exposed online than make an exception to beat up this crazy woman.

Lin Rui started the car and was about to call Fu Shihan to tell him what happened when he saw several cars surrounding Cheng Yao’s car, and a few familiar people getting out.

Lin Rui was stunned, and so was Su Wanxin.

"Sister-in-law, are you okay?" Jiang Cheng ran over to open the car door, scrutinizing Su Wanxin’s situation with cold sweat. "I’ll take you to the hospital."

"Hurry up, my legs are weak!" Lin Rui breathed a sigh of relief, not yet having faced such danger, but fully understanding Su Wanxin’s importance to Fu Shihan.

He handed Su Wanxin to Jiang Cheng, lit a cigarette, and got out of the car to approach Cheng Yao.

"Su Wanxin!!!" Cheng Yao watched as Su Wanxin got into another car unharmed, her eyes red as she screamed manically: "I won’t let you get away with this! I want to pull you into death, I want you dead!!!"

Su Wanxin stopped in her tracks, turned around, and met her gaze.

"Jiang Cheng."

"Hmm?"

"Take her back, I want to meet her later."

"Sister-in-law, I think this woman is a bit mentally unstable, you better not..." Jiang Cheng wasn’t reassured, "She seems totally in a drug-induced state, people would believe she’s having a rabid episode right now."

"Then wait for the drug’s effect to wear off before meeting."
