Ye Moxuan retorted, “Why do you assume that I’m looking forward to her arrival?”
Xiao Su explained, “Well, you’ve been looking at the entrance this whole time. Aren’t you waiting for Young Lady?”
Initially, he wanted to say that he saw it with both his eyes, but after thinking about it, it seemed impolite to say that. So, he minced his words.
“I’m just looking at the entrance, yet you assume that I’m waiting for her. Xiao Su, when have you become an expert in analyzing people’s expression?”
Xiao Su hesitated before answering. “All right then. Just ignore what I said.”
Come on, it’s so obvious that you are waiting for her, yet you still refuse to admit it.
I really don’t understand why they are fighting again.
But after thinking of what he had investigated, Xiao Su became worried.
Young Lady, you must come. If you don’t come tonight, I’m afraid—
Xiao Su didn’t dare to think about it anymore.
After all, it was a very important day today—the reason why Ye Moxuan wanted to invite her to the dinner party was to introduce her to everyone so that everyone knew that Shen Qi was his wife.
Before leaving the villa, Ye Moxuan even asked her once more, but she turned him down.
Woman, you better arrive when the party begins.
Otherwise, I won’t forgive you.
Ye Moxuan said silently in his mind and snorted coldly before turning the wheelchair to leave.
Meanwhile, a car was currently speeding down Xingfu Road. Shen Qi glanced at the time and realized that there were still ten minutes left before the clock struck eight, but they were still on the road.
“Linhan, are we almost there yet?”
Ye Linhan nodded. “Yes. Once we’ve crossed the bridge in front, we will reach our destination after another two hundred meters.”
Great!
Shen Qi smiled. Since the bridge was near, she could see Ye Moxuan immediately.
She didn’t break her promise—she would be punctual.
Seeing her anxious look, Ye Linhan sped up a bit, but no one would have thought that an accident would happen at that moment.
When they were approaching the bridge, a small truck on the road, which was swerving left and right, drove toward them at an incredibly high speed.
Shen Qi felt something was wrong. When she looked up, the small truck was already right in front of them. She was so frightened that she suddenly screamed out loud, staring wide-eyed at the small truck that was about to collide into their car.
When Ye Linhan who was driving in front realized that, he hurriedly turned the steering wheel as he panicked—he didn’t expect this to happen. While turning the steering wheel, Ye Linhan turned around and bellowed at Shen Qi behind him, “Qi, get down!”
Bang!
…
Bang!
The party started on time, and the opening music was the sound of fireworks exploding. The guests had already begun to enter, but Ye Moxuan did not see the familiar figure at the entrance.
Xiao Su glanced at the time. “It has just started right now, and it may take more than ten minutes for all the guests to enter the venue.”
Hearing this, Ye Moxuan frowned. “Did you give her an invitation card?”
Xiao Su was taken aback for a moment and shook his head. “I don’t think so.”
“Damn it. Then, how will she enter?”
Xiao Su came to his senses immediately. “Noted. I’ll go to the entrance to bring Young Lady in.” With that, Xiao Su quickly turned around and walked to the entrance where several staff were unsurprisingly checking for invitation cards. If Shen Qi was here, she definitely could not get in without having an invitation.
Many people knew Xiao Su, so they greeted him.
“Assistant Xiao, are you here to help out?”
Xiao Su smiled at them in return and replied, “Yes, I’m waiting for someone.”
“Wow, that person must be incredibly important since you’re here for them in person. I wonder if you can reveal to me who this VIP is. Hehe.”
“You guys should go in now. The party has already begun.” Xiao Su would most definitely not tell him. After all, Young Master Ye wants to introduce Young Lady personally. Who am I to say anything about this?
Xiao Su’s gaze searched through the crowd behind him. Many people were very well dressed with many pieces of jewelry on them today, but he didn’t see Shen Qi’s figure. Xiao Su felt anxious, wondering if Shen Qi would come.
Please don’t tell me that she’s not coming anymore.
With this thought in mind, Xiao Su quickly took out his cell phone. It was better to give her a call.
So, he called Shen Qi right after.
“Hello, the number you have dialed is temporarily out of service.”
The cold, robotic voice repeated this sentence over and over again. Xiao Su’s expression immediately changed upon hearing that. What’s the matter? Is it possible that she won’t be here tonight?
Oh my God, I’m so anxious! Thinking of Ye Moxuan’s poker face that could almost freeze him to death, Xiao Su was in despair. If Young Lady is not here today, Young Master Ye’s mood today and in the future will… This is bad!
Anxious, Xiao Su thought of looking for Shen Qi himself. Even if she didn’t want to come, he would have to find her and drag her here.
Thinking of this, Xiao Su put away his cell phone and walked outside, but he was stopped by someone. “Assistant Xiao, are you going out? You can’t go out at this time.”
Xiao Su was troubled by all his worries at that moment and couldn’t help but frown when he heard that. “What do you mean?”
“There’s a car accident on the bridge. The driver of a small truck was drunk, and he smashed into the rails of the bridge. It’s horrible! Why did he even drive after drinking? No one can pass through there, and the police are taking charge of everything.”
“Is that so?” Xiao Su’s frown deepened. If the rails were broken, the entire road would be blocked. Is Young Lady stranded there?
Keeping this in mind, he returned to the second floor and walked to Ye Moxuan’s side. Just when Xiao Su was about to tell Ye Moxuan about this, he heard his cold voice. “She isn’t coming, is she?”
“Young Master Ye, there has been an ac—”
“If she’s not coming, let her be.”
With that, Ye Moxuan turned and left the second floor. Xiao Su’s expression changed as he hurried to catch up to him. “Young Master Ye, maybe Young Lady is still on the way. She told me that she would come before leaving the villa. She isn’t the kind of person who breaks her promises.”
“Really? Where is she now? If she isn’t the type of person to break her promises, tell me—where is she now?”
Xiao Su stuttered, “Uh…”
He couldn’t say a word. In fact, he could understand Ye Moxuan’s feelings. After all, after knowing those things, he still gave Shen Qi a choice, but she had chosen another path.
It has been ten minutes since the party has started, yet Young Lady still has not shown up. No wonder Young Master Ye is furious.
Seeing that he would be busy with other matters, Xiao Su had no choice but to follow Ye Moxuan first. As for Shen Qi, if she had arrived, he would bring her in when she appeared later.
…
“The rails of the bridge are damaged. The truck ran into several cars along the way, and several people were injured. The investigation is still ongoing.”
When Ye Linhan was rescued, he was already in a semi-coma. He was stabbed by broken glass in many places of his body, and he had most probably suffered a concussion. On top of that, he was bleeding.
After he was rescued, he was laid flat on the ground. Then, he grabbed the man’s hand. “Save… the person behind!”
The man froze for a moment. “You mean someone else is in the back seat?”
“Yes!”
“Got it. We will rescue the person right away.”
