âAlright, alright, no problem, Iâll be there right away,â Zuo Tianfengâs expression changed repeatedly, âThank you for your help.â
Zuo Xianyu frowned, âDad, whatâs going on?â
âYour brother had a car accident,â Zuo Tianfeng hurriedly dressed, his tone filled with frustration, âTold him not to drink and drive, and now heâs landed himself in the hospital again.â
âIâll come with you,â Zuo Xianyu stood up, âHas the driver who caused the accident been caught?â
âWhat driver?â Zuo Tianfeng was visibly upset, âHe was the one driving the wrong way and hit someone. We should pray the other person is fine.â
Zuo Xianyu exhaled, âOkay, Iâll bring my bank card.â
They quickly headed to Lin Cityâs First Hospital.
Zuo Zongheâs leg was in a cast, and he was hooked up to an IV.
âDriving under the influence, are you trying to kill yourself?â Zuo Tianfeng slapped him immediately when he saw him, âYouâre lucky this time. You could have died.â
âDad, itâs not my fault,â Zuo Zonghe argued, his face flushed, âI only had a little drink, I was sober. But for some reason, my hand twitched and turned the steering wheel.â
He didnât mention the weirdest part.
He clearly hadnât pressed the accelerator, yet the car sped up.
It was downright bizarre.
âStop making excuses,â Zuo Tianfeng said grimly, âOne more incident like this and the Zuo family stop caring about you From today, your bank cards are all suspended. Stay home!â
With that, he went out to negotiate with the victim.
As long as the victim was alive, whether injured or disabled, money could settle it.
âXianyu, itâs really not my fault,â Zuo Zonghe complained, âConvince Dad. How can I live without a bank card?â
âDadâs right. You better stay home,â Zuo Xianyu didnât agree, âYou just got out of the hospital and now youâre back in. Youâre just making us a laughing stock.â Zuo Zonghe was too angry to speak.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
âBrother, donât you still have thoughts on Si Fuqing?â Zuo Xianyu suddenly spoke, âAfter a while, when the operation in the barren mountain starts, Iâll bring her to you.â
âBarren mountain?â Zuo Zonghe was surprised, âWhich barren mountain?â
âThe mine under Jingcheng Real Estate. We thought there were minerals, but the survey found nothing,â Zuo Xianyu explained briefly, âSi Fuqing paid 2 billion for it. Dad transferred the mountain to her. She didnât even look at what kind of mountain it was before signing the contract.â
âI see,â Zuo Zonghe nodded, looking weak, âI donât understand business, just handle it. Just bring Si Fuqing to my bed.â
âOkay,â Zuo Xianyu stood up, âIâm heading home then.â
âWhatâs going on with our family?â Zuo Zonghe wondered, âDid we offend some evil spirit?â
Zuo Xianyu stopped, turning sharply, âYou feel it too?â
âWhatâs with that look?â Zuo Zonghe shivered under her gaze, âI was just saying. Youâre not seriously believing this, are you? Youâre as superstitious as those old women.â
âI just have a bad feeling,â Zuo Xianyu pursed her lips, âRest well. Iâll visit you another day.â
Zuo Zonghe dismissed her, âGo, go, just remember about Si Fuqing.â
After Zuo Xianyu left, Zuo Zonghe felt drained and soon fell asleep.
On the other side, Si Fuqing and Gu Wenzhu had finished their meal and were now on the street.
âHey,â Gu Wenzhu glanced at her, âYour complexion looks much better than before. Have you been skipping meals again?â
âNo,â Si Fuqing pinched her own cheek, âIâve been eating well recently, almost turned into a little chubby.â
The food at the bossâs home was indeed excellent.
Gu Wenzhu scrutinized her closely, puzzled, âStrange, you look radiant.â
Si Fuqing mused, âAh, then I guess Iâve regained a lot.â
JI Xingzhiâs call came at that moment, âBig brother, feeling good, arenât you? All thanks to me, right?â
âMhmm,â Si Fuqing raised an eyebrow, âThanks.â
âHey, itâs nothing. Big brother, letâs go. I found a great place. Iâm treating you to a meal,â JI Xingzhi sounded excited, âHey, I never really went out when I was in the JI family. Iâm going to enjoy it this time.â
âIâm busy tonight,â Si Fuqing declined, âIâm having dinner with someone outside..â
