The Crazy Son-In-Law

Chapter 256: Car Accident



Xiao Shun did not agree to Kou Moshu’s request. He had only treated Kou Moshu’s leg out of respect for Kou Zhengqing.

This ungrateful bastard, not thinking of repaying him, even wanted to learn from him – as if such a good thing existed. Kou Moshu was already in his twenties, and with his mediocre aptitude, he was not good material for either martial arts or medical studies. It would be better for him to be a dutiful rich second generation.

In the end, Xiao Shun did not have a good impression of Kou Moshu. No, it was actually quite bad.

Therefore, Kou Moshu did not even have the qualifications to be a lackey in front of him. If there was anything, he could directly find Kou Zhengqing. Wasn’t he easier to deal with?

So, overall, Kou Moshu was of no use to Xiao Shun. To put it badly, he was a burden.

Of course, he couldn’t directly say in front of Kou Zhengqing that his son was useless. Truth hurts, after all. He still had to leave some face for him.

After leaving the hospital, Xiao Shun went straight back to the hotel. This trip to Harrow finally ended. Despite the ups and downs, it was worthwhile as he gained a Sea Spirit, making the trip worthwhile.

It’s important to understand that the treasures of this world are not easily attainable. At his level, it was almost impossible to improve his cultivation. Each improvement was like a chasm.

With the nourishment of the Sea Spirit, the Spirit Stone would certainly quickly condense spiritual energy, aiding him.

The next morning, in the hotel parking lot, Xiao Shun was in a car with Yao Cen. Duan Jia and Ding Yue were preparing to return to Stillwater. As they left the parking lot, they saw Tang Shishi already waiting for them.

Seeing Xiao Shun’s car, she walked over with a resentful look. Yao Cen rolled down the car window, looking at her with a puzzled expression.

Xiao Shun rubbed his temples. Why was this troublemaker still lingering around?

Tang Shishi seemed to hear his thoughts, quickly glanced at him, and then gave Yao Cen a charming smile.

With an innocent look, she asked, “Can I hitch a ride? I can discuss the agency of Starline Health with you two on the way.”

Yao Cen, as a woman, a woman who was sensitive and delicate in dealing with emotions, how could she not feel the threat from Tang Shishi, even if she was certain that there was nothing between Xiao Shun and Tang Shishi.

But Tang Shishi’s excuse was a bit too far-fetched.

Yao Cen had always been confident, but she suddenly felt insecure in front of Tang Shishi.

Even she had to admit, Tang Shishi was really beautiful and came from a wealthy family, and her temperament and appearance were in no way inferior to her own.

Out of face, and to maintain her home advantage, she replied politely and generously, “Of course.”

After Tang Shishi thanked her with a beaming smile, she opened the back door and got into the car.

The atmosphere in the car became a bit delicate after she joined them.

Not long after Tang Shishi got in the car, she began to feel sleepy, showing no signs of wanting to discuss anything. Anyway, how could they discuss anything in the car? Yao Cen had to drive and couldn’t be distracted.

Duan Jia’s car was in front, with Yao Cen’s following closely behind, leaving Harrow and heading west towards Stillwater.

“Duan, what kind of person is our Mr. Xiao?” In Duan Jia’s car, Ding Yue, who was sitting in the passenger seat, asked curiously.

“I can’t say for sure, but he’s not a bad person,” Duan Jia said with a hearty laugh. “I haven’t known him for long either. He cured my illness, no, strictly speaking, he saved my life.”

For a cultivator, losing his power was no different from losing his life.

Just after he finished speaking, the car suddenly shook a few times. Duan Jia frowned, pulled the car over to the side of the road, and got out to check.

“What’s wrong?” Yao Cen’s car had also arrived by then. Xiao Shun asked.

“There are two nails in the tire,” Duan Jia said, his hands on his hips. He spat and cursed, “I guess there’s a tire repair shop up ahead. These bastards will do anything to make money.”

“You go ahead, Miss Yao, be careful on the road. I’ll change the spare tire and followyou later.”

“Alright, or let Ding come to my car.” Yao Cen pondered for a moment.

“No need, I’ll stay and help.” Ding Yue waved his hand.

“Alright, we’ll go ahead then.”

Afterwards, Yao Cen started the car and drove off.

About twenty minutes later, Tang Shishi slowly opened her eyes and looked out the window, apologizing in a sleepy voice, “I’m sorry, I fell asleep.”

Yao Cen said with a deep meaning, “It’s okay, Miss Tang must not have slept well last night, right?”

“It was alright. Where are we now?”Content © provided by NôvelDrama.Org.

“We’re about to leave Harrow city limits after crossing the bridge ahead.” Yao Cen replied offhandedly.

“Oh.”

Harrow city and Newstrand were separated by a river, and after passing through Newstrand, they would reach Stillwater city, which was still about two hundred kilometers away.

This bridge served as the main road connecting Harrow and Newstrand, and it was not busy at this time.

When they were about a kilometer away from the bridge, a large truck began following them from a side road. The driver was a middle-aged man wearing a black mask.

This was a main road, so it was normal for any kind of vehicle to appear. The three of them didn’t pay it any mind.

“Be careful!”

Just as Yao Cen was driving across the bridge, Xiao Shun suddenly noticed that the truck behind them was accelerating like mad. He quickly warned her.

The truck roared past, almost scraping Yao Cen’s car.

Fortunately, Yao Cen’s reaction was quick. After Xiao Shun’s warning, she swiftly turned the steering wheel to dodge.

“That scared me…” Tang Shishi said, clutching her chest, visibly shaken.

Xiao Shun’s brows furrowed, a bad feeling rising in his heart.

Sure enough, after the truck rushed past them, it suddenly slowed down ahead, then turned around and blocked the road.

The distance was too short, and it was too late to brake. Yao Cen panicked and turned the steering wheel randomly. The car seemed to lose control and rushed towards the guardrail.

Bang!

In the blink of an eye, the car broke through the guardrail and plunged towards the river below the bridge!

With another bang, the car hit the water, causing a large splash.

Everything happened so fast. Xiao Shun only felt dizzy, and the screams of Yao Cen and Tang Shishi echoed in his ears. Several pieces of broken glass cut across his face, and blood flowed freely. Then he felt an intense chill infiltrating his body.

Several cars on the bridge immediately stopped, and many people rushed to the edge of the bridge.

“A car accident! Call the police!”

“Who has a rope or a lifebuoy in their car? If so, bring it and come help me down to the river! We need to save people, don’t just stand there!”

A muscular young man was shouting as he ran towards the bridge. There was no lifebuoy at this moment, and a few people followed him to run down the bridge. Among them, one ran towards a few houses at the head of the bridge, probably to find tools for saving people.
