Chapter One: Accident
you say it's a prank, then I can rest assured." 。"But Secretary Su, my phone is indeed lost. You wouldn't know that, would you"Qin Jingwen wouldn't easily believe Su Qin's words, but she couldn't be s...Qin Jingwen sat on the cold chairs in the hospital, her face full of misery and grief.
My father died at the scene of the accident, my mother suffered multiple organ injuries and is now on the brink of death. Although my sister wasn't seriously hurt, she fainted from the bloody scene and hasn't woken up yet.
The determination of liability for the accident was placed entirely on the father, and Qin Jingwen was responsible for all compensation to the deceased driver and the injured person.
This sudden blow was enough to shatter Qin Jingwen's body and mind, but this was not the worst.
Her father's company went bankrupt, leaving a huge amount of debt. The creditors came to the hospital and were relentless in their pursuit of Qin Jingwen even after learning about her father's death.
Qin Jingwen wanted to cry but no tears came, she just stood there dumbfounded. At that moment, a nurse walked over.
"Miss Qin, please pay your mother and sister's hospital bills as soon as possible. If you don't, we will stop their treatment."
"Well then, I'll figure something out."
Now that even medical expenses are beyond Qin Jingwen's reach, let alone compensation for the injured and the enormous debts left by her father. Even if she sold her life, it would be a drop in the bucket.
Even if she was powerless, she still had to do her best to find a way. Now that no one was willing to help her, the only person she could think of was Chu Yang.
"Chu Yang..."
Just called her boyfriend's name, and the words below came to a halt.
"Need something"
Chu Yang's voice came from the other end of the phone.
"I... my mother is sick, and we urgently need money. I..."
Qin Jingwen disregarded the turmoil in her heart, tossing her pride aside like it was nothing, and finally spoke of her predicament. But before she could finish, Chu Yang's cold and hard voice came from across from her.
"Money You want to borrow money from me Or are you trying to scam me"
"Cheat money Chu Yang, what do you mean by that"
Chu Yang's sudden words made Qin Jingwen's blood run cold.
Where did she do wrong to make Chu Yang think she was a fraud
"You're still putting on a show, you've already exposed your true colors, and you're still acting like nothing happened. Qin Jingwen, you are shameless! You actually cursed your own mother just to get money."
"I...Chu Yang, I don't understand what you're saying, I..."
Before the two characters of "acting" could even be uttered, it was interrupted again.
"Qin Jingwen, what other shameless demands do you have Who else are you trying to curse I tell you, even if your family goes bankrupt, I won't give you a penny."
Chu Yang's anger was palpable, but Qin Jingwen found it ironic. It seemed Chu Yang already knew about her family's situation. This was the classic case of "when walls fall, everyone pushes," even those closest to you were quick to distance themselves.
But her current situation didn't allow her to be tsundere. No matter what Chu Yang did, she wanted to grasp onto him as the last straw.
"I..."
However, just as she lowered her pride and asked for help, a woman's voice came from the other end of the phone.
"Honey, the bath water is ready. It'll be cold soon if you don't come wash."
"Hurry up, I'm waiting for you in the bathroom."
The voice, so sweet it could melt you, sent a chill down Qin Jingwen's spine. This voice...
"Chu Yang you guys…"
"It's good to hear that, I was just about to tell you, don't think deceiving me is clever, I have no real feelings for you either."
Chu Yang's words were like ice shards, piercing Qin Jingwen straight to hell.
"The con artist she told you about"
"Yes, she told me. What do you want to do Threaten her Qin Jingwen, I warn you, she's my woman now, and with me around, you don't even think about touching her."
An angry warning, without a shred of hesitation, he hung up the phone. Was this still the man she loved
Anger, resentment, and a despairing sense of injustice washed over Qin Jingwen in an instant.
In the VIP suite, Qiao Shunchen finally woke up after being in a coma for three days.
The gauze wrapped around his head, the slight scratches on his face, and the furrowed brows caused by a headache, none of it could obscure his handsome and resolute features.
"My head hurts so much."
Qiao Shunchen muttered and sat up. Meanwhile, Qiao Shunchen's sister, Qiao Yu, hurried to the bedside and asked with concern, "Thank goodness, you're finally awake."
"...."
"Your driver is dead."
"Damn it, I'm going to make the perpetrator pay dearly for this." Qiao Shunchen frowned.
"The culprit who started the trouble has died, and that culprit was from the Qin army."
"Qin army"
Jo Shunchen was astonished. Why would the perpetrator be from the Qin army Was it intentional, or just a coincidence
“Yes, it was the Qin army. Their car had wives and children on board. The place where you collided was the airport highway. The Qin army should have been going out to avoid debt, and in a hurry, they sped. The police concluded that the car was going too fast, and Qin Jun lost control of the vehicle, then broke through the isolation belt of the highway and hit your car.”
Jo Yu briefly told Qiao Shunchen the preliminary results of the police investigation.
“...”
Jo Shunchen pondered silently. According to Qiao Yu's account, this tragedy might have been an accident. No, even if it was an accident, even if the Qin army had perished, he wouldn't forgive the party responsible. He and the Qin family's feud would never be resolved in this lifetime.
"How are the wives and children of the Qin army"
Qiao Shunchen asked in a low voice.
The Qin army's wife is seriously injured and has not yet been out of danger. The doctor said her chance of survival is slim. The youngest daughter was severely traumatized and shocked and is still in a coma. The eldest daughter came back from abroad to handle this matter.
Joe Yu said again, "Uncle Two has been getting restless these days while you were unconscious. Grandfather gave you a strict order: wake up and get married and have children. Only when you have a stable family background can he openly take over the position of company chairman."
"Uncle Two is actually so impatient, before even confirming if I'm dead or alive he can't hold it in anymore. Fine, then I'll let all his hopes crumble."
Joe Shunchen said coldly, "Isn't it just the heir Since grandpa wants it, I'll give it to him."
After dark, Qiao Yu left, and Qiao Shunchen went out for some fresh air.
As he passed by the hospital park, a sound of painful sobs made him stop.
Qin Jingwen stood in the hospital park, unable to face her mother and sister, let alone accept Chu Yang's betrayal at this time. She couldn't help but burst into tears.
"Why... why..."
Qin Jingwen didn't know what she was asking either, she just felt that everything was too unfair, infuriating and pitiful. The most tragic thing was that no one was willing to help her.
The sky was not kind at this moment, with torrential rain pouring down like pillars. The rainwater drowned out the tears, the tears mingling with the rain.
Just like that, the woman crying heart-wrenchingly in the rain made Qiao Shunchen frown.
The pitch-black room was devoid of any light, so dark that it filled one with fear and panic. Similarly unsettling was the heart, beating nervously within its chest.
She had no idea what the man who would enter this room looked like, but she was ready to give him everything. This meant that even if Chu Yang came looking for her, there was no way back for them.
Without giving Qin Jingwen too much time to feel sad, the dark bedroom door was pushed open. The moment she heard the sound of the door, she suddenly trembled in fear and felt a surge of wanting to escape.
But reality was right in front of her, she needed money and had to do this, didn't she She couldn't afford to be capricious and run away.
The man slammed the door shut and, instinctively, made his way to the bed. A woman sat there, but her face remained obscured in shadow. take care of her" 。< Auntie, don't worry > 。If Qiao Shunchen and this woman really have a chance, I'll move back to our own house. Then I won't let Jingyi live in the dormitory anymore. 。"Trying to s...
