Chapter 370 - Ran Someone Over

Fu Qingli said, “No.”

Fu Junqiu was finally pushed to the breaking point. “I’m your aunt!”

“You should be glad that you’re my aunt.”

Fu Junqiu clenched her fist and resisted the urge to punch him. She glared at Fu Qingli viciously.

‘Sigh… What a bad start to my trip!’

Had Fu Junqiu known that her nephew was currently in China, she would not have come over. The feeling of being watched by her nephew was unpleasantly suffocating.

Song Wenye kept lamenting on the way back. “They’re such a perfect couple… I have no chance… Why do all the good-looking men with good character and family background marry young?”

Shen Xi reminded her, “Fu Qingli is not married.”

Song Wenye said, “Well, you can’t say that. Look at him and his girlfriend! They’re so lovey-dovey. Marriage is just a matter of time. He’s only 24, so isn’t that considered young for marriage? Most people just graduated from college.”

She then winked ambiguously at Shen Xi. “You don’t need to envy others. You’ll also get your chance to marry young sooner or later…”

Shen Xi’s eyes softened but she did not answer.

If possible, Shen Xi would like to drag Li Yuan to register for marriage once she was of age to lock him down first.

Song Wenye knew that Shen Xi would glow at the mention of Toffeecito’s dad. It was nice to have a crush.

Both of them were sitting in the back seat while they ate fried chicken and talked.

Suddenly, there was a loud crash.

The brakes screeched and the car shook violently.

Song Wenye was holding a bucket of fried chicken but all fell onto Shen Xi. She was furious and yelled, “Lin Ge! Do you not know how to drive?!”

Lin Ge was so scared that his body was trembling. He turned to look at the two of them and stuttered, “Sister Xi, I ran someone over…”

Shen Xi’s expression changed. She looked ahead, but the hood of the car blocked her line of sight, so she could not see anything. She said in a low voice, “Don’t panic. Let’s check it out first.”

Lin Ge tried to calm himself. When he saw Shen Xi was about to open the door, he quickly shouted, “You girls stay here and don’t move. I’ll go and take a look.”

He saw a man rushing from the left intersection on his bicycle and fell in front of him, so he thought that the man must have been killed by the hit.

Lin Ge wanted to bear the responsibility of crashing into the man and did not want the two girls to see the gory scene lest they get scared.

However, Shen Xi was not bothered. When Lin Ge went over, the girls followed.

There was a bicycle on the ground in front of the car.

A man was lying next to the bicycle.

The bicycle looked fine without any deformation and had no signs of being hit.

There was also no blood on the ground or the man’s body.

Thus, they could rule out a car accident. Their car did not hit the man.

Lin Ge was confused because both their car and the bike were fine, except the man was lying on the ground as if he was hit.

“Lil’ Ye, quickly go to the car and grab my blue canvas pouch from my schoolbag. Bring it to me.” Shen Xi quickly walked towards the man and looked at the still puzzled Lin Ge. “Don’t just stand there. Come over and give me a hand.”

Song Wenye ran to get the pouch.

Lin Ge ran over when he heard Shen Xi but he was clueless about how to help. Shen Xi had already flipped the man over and tore the man’s clothes.

Shen Xi looked calm as she pressed one hand on the man’s forehead while her other hand’s index and middle fingers clasped the man’s jaw and tilted it upward. She instructed Lin Ge. “Find his medication. He must have it on him.”

Lin Ge started fumbling the man’s body looking for the medication and soon pulled out a small pill bottle from the man’s suit pocket. He looked at Shen Xi. “How many?”

“Five. Put them under his tongue,” Shen Xi said in a deep voice.

Lin Ge was infected by Shen Xi’s composure and calmly put the pills under the man’s tongue.

When he looked at the bottle of pills carefully, he saw that it was nitroglycerin. The man was having a heart attack and was not hit by his car.

Song Wenye brought the canvas pouch and was shocked to see silver needles inside when she opened it.

‘When did Xixi learn how to do this? Why didn’t I know anything about it?’

Lin Ge watched in awe as Shen Xi took the silver needles and quickly pierced them into a few acupressure points. He admired Shen Xi’s ability.

‘Shen Xi is such a genius! How is she so good at everything? Everything she does is amazing! How can ordinary people like us compare to this goddess?!’

Song Wenye also noticed that the man was not hit by their car since there was no blood and the bicycle also looked fine.

After Shen Xi stuck two needles in his hand, the man coughed and gradually opened his eyes.

Shen Xi looked at Song Wenye. “Give him some water.”

Song Wenye ran back to the car to get a bottle of water, then squatted to feed him some water as she looked at him and asked, “Uncle, how do you feel now?”

She had been tense earlier, so she did not notice what the man looked like. Upon closer look, she found that he was a very handsome middle-aged man who was about 50 years old.

The man took two sips of water and gasped. “Thank you.”

Shen Xi’s face was cold as she said in a deep voice, “Don’t speak now.”

Ten minutes later.

The man was completely awake but was not willing to go to the hospital for a physical examination because he had an appointment that he must attend. He was incredibly stubborn and did not listen to them no matter how much they persuaded him.

Lin Ge could not care less now that he was certain he did not hit the man. The man was the unlucky one. In the end, Shen Xi even saved his life, so they did not owe him anything.

As always, Shen Xi was cold to strangers.

Song Wenye, on the other hand, was very sympathetic and insisted on sending the man to his appointment venue. She was very nosy and even asked, “Uncle, are you going on a blind date? Why are you in such a hurry?”

The man said, “Little girl, do you know how old I am?”

Song Wenye thought about it for a moment and guessed an older age. “I think you’re fifty.”

The man smiled. He looked more handsome and mysterious when he smiled. “Guess again.”

Song Wenye answered, “Then forty?”

His smile widened and he made a hand gesture.

Song Wenye’s eyes widened in disbelief and covered her mouth. “Seventy?! Uncle, I know that I’m young, but it’s not easy to fool me!”

“Why would I lie to you?” The man looked at the quiet beautiful girl who was sitting by the window, leaning back on the car seat with closed eyes. His eyes were filled with appreciation and love as he asked in a soft voice, “What’s that girl’s name?”

The girl was young but had great medical skills. She was also aloof and cold. From the time he woke up, she only said one sentence, “Do whatever you want.”

Song Wenye frowned and became alert. “What do you want with her?”
