“Someone was involved in a car accident.”

“This driver is speeding dangerously. He may be driving under the influence.

Otherwise, why would he crash without any apparent reason?”

“What are you waiting for? Call 911!”

“Let’s go help the driver.”

“I didn’t dare to assist. Last time, an elderly man fell and was aided by someone, only to later exploit the person who helped him. What if the driver isn’t fatally injured and tries to take advantage of us?”

The airbags in Gu Qingcheng’s car deployed, and the world spun around her. The cacophony in her ears was giving her a splitting headache.

“Gu Qingcheng!” Lu Chi’s voice trembled with anxiety and helplessness as he shouted, “Are you okay? If you’re conscious, please say something!”

“I… He’s alive.” Gu Qingcheng’s forehead was burning with pain. She knew that blood was flowing, but the pain in her arm made her realize it wasn’t broken but dislocated.

“Hold on.” Lu Chi was frantic. “I’ll be right there.”

Gu Qingcheng surveyed her dislocated right arm and placed her left hand on her shoulder. She gritted her teeth, muffling a painful groan as she tried to reset her dislocated arm.

“Are you alright?” A passerby opened the car door to help her. “We’ve called 120, and an ambulance is on its way.”

Dazed, Gu Qingcheng looked at the passerby who was offering assistance. “Don’t touch me, or I might get injured again.”

The passerby quickly withdrew his hand.

“Clear the way!” Lu Chi’s anxious voice echoed. When he saw Gu Qingcheng’s bloodied face, he scolded in anxiety, “Damn it, how did you manage to crash like this? You even hit a tree?”

Despite his scolding, he swiftly moved forward and asked with genuine concern, “Are you injured anywhere? Can I assist you?”142.93.60.102

Gu Qingcheng understood that Lu Chi was worried about her, so she refrained from rebuking him. She lacked the energy to engage in conversation at that moment.

“Tell me,” Gu Qingcheng urged.

Lu Chi explained, “The assassin had a criminal record and had served a 20-year prison sentence before being released. His family had disowned him, leaving him homeless. However, he had a daughter. Someone paid 20 million yuan to have your son killed, and he took the job. Afterward, he took his own life. He had set up an account in his daughter’s name, and the 20 million yuan was laundered, ultimately reaching her account. He’s gone, and his daughter now has a fortune to rely on.”

Gritting her teeth, Gu Qingcheng remarked with anger, “The assassin had a daughter, and he willingly took my son’s life. Doesn’t he understand how precious a son is to a parent?”

“Heartless criminals lack empathy. You can’t expect killers to share your sentiments,” Lu Chi replied.

Gu Qingcheng’s eyes welled with frustration. “Lu Chi, you must uncover the person behind the hit on my son.”

“Of course,” Lu Chi promised. “Tell me, how did you come to adopt your son? With whom? Why is your son so pale? What illness does he have? Have you taken him for treatment?”

Gu Qingcheng lacked the energy to answer Lu Chi’s questions. Every time she thought of his declaration that her son was undoubtedly dead, she felt like she was in hell, torn apart by darkness.

Darkness. Darkness was all she could see.

This despair reminded her of the time when Gu Mei had deceived Huo Sicheng, almost leading to his death in bed.

Fear.

She feared losing both Huo Sicheng and Huo Xuan. Father and son were her entire world, irreplaceable and indispensable.

The car remained eerily silent, and the tension was suffocating. Lu Chi lit a cigarette and took a drag. He couldn’t see Gu Qingcheng’s expression in the rearview mirror.

“Here’s a wet towel. Wipe the blood off your face,” he finally broke the silence. “Car accidents can cause internal injuries. If you feel unwell, let me know immediately. Don’t let the person who ordered your son’s death win by losing your son and your own life.”

Gu Qingcheng’s heart was heavy, her body trembling with despair and fear.

She cared little about wiping her face or the pain she was in. Lu Chi’s words cut deep, amplifying her agony.

“Please, no more,” she uttered, and Lu Chi fell silent.

After a while, his phone rang, and he answered it. “Yes?”

He hung up the phone and turned to Gu Qingcheng. “Qingcheng, there’s something you need to know.”

“What is it?” Gu Qingcheng asked, her unease palpable..
