Nan Shiqing's intermediary was Lu Shan, and behind Lu Shan were others.
For someone with status to cooperate with Nan Shiqing meant Nan Shiqing was useful to them.
Because of this, Nan Shiqing was protected.
Even if someone truly wanted to kill Fu Siye, they would consider Nan Shiqing's backer.
However, they had an accident together.
No one would be so foolish, except Nan Shiqing herself!
Nan Shiqing wanted to use this car accident to change Fu Siye's perception of her.
Qi Mo chuckled, "A good plan."
Though his tone was calm, Mu Yinyin could detect the sarcasm. She smiled faintly and said nothing.
Qi Mo knew Mu Yinyin wasn't interested in continuing to watch. He pushed the menu his assistant had sent to his phone towards Mu Yinyin.
"Yinyin, take a look. Circle what you'd like to eat, and I'll have my assistant arrange for it to be delivered."
As he spoke, a deep smile played on Qi Mo's lips.
His gaze was fixed solely on Mu Yinyin.
No one had ever seen Qi Mo look at someone that way, nor had they heard him speak so gently to anyone.
Aimei, standing nearby, had been watching for a while, her heart feeling heavy.
But no matter how upset she was, she wouldn't lose control and say those things to Mu Yinyin again.
Aimei secretly pinched her palm, curled her lips, and offered with a light smile,
"If it's delivered, it will be in a food container, which would affect the taste. Why don't we go to a restaurant?"
"That sounds good."
"Then after Fenfen finishes her IV drip, we'll go."
The three adults and one child created a family-like scene. He was like their elder brother, but Qi Mo knew one thing clearly: he didn't want to be Mu Yinyin's brother.
...
Emergency Room.
Nan Shiqing had woken up.
This car accident was within He Xia's plan. Nan Shiqing was her biological daughter, so no matter how much she schemed, she wouldn't risk Nan Shiqing's life.
And Nan Shiqing wouldn't let herself die!
The truck appeared to lose control, but it braked in time at the critical moment.
Although the car Nan Shiqing and Fu Siye were in was hit and thrown, the impact wasn't too high.
Combined with their seatbelts, the airbags deployed the moment the car landed after being thrown.
Besides a small injury on their foreheads, they were otherwise unharmed.
They had lost consciousness because a new type of tranquilizer was released into the air.
This new tranquilizer caused hallucinations, leading to immediate unconsciousness.
Unconsciousness resulted in splitting headaches.
Nan Shiqing lay for a while, her consciousness fully returning.
She looked around, desperately searching for Fu Siye.
Not seeing Fu Siye, Nan Shiqing was extremely panicked. She remembered clearly that Fu Siye was covered in blood, and her vision had been completely blurred by the blood later!
"Mom, where's Siye? Where is he?"
"In the room next door."
He Xia had released the new tranquilizer to ensure everything went smoothly, and she hadn't told Nan Shiqing.
"I need to go find him! Siye seems seriously injured. Mom, when Siye wakes up, he'll investigate. The Fu family will also investigate. Such a serious accident will definitely be thoroughly probed. If it traces back to us, we're finished!" Hearing He Xia's reply, Nan Shiqing suddenly considered this possibility and trembled uncontrollably.
Her eyes even held a hint of despair.
At that point, Fu Siye would never look at her again.
He Xia grabbed her shoulders and frowned, speaking sternly.
"Shiqing, calm down. Those were just hallucinations caused by the tranquilizer. You just collided; there are no major issues. How could this be our doing? Fu Siye has always had enemies. You were just injured while trying to protect him."
"Tranquilizer?" Nan Shiqing frowned, her eyes full of confusion.
Following that, He Xia explained her act of administering the tranquilizer.
Nan Shiqing finally understood.
However, Nan Shiqing suddenly remembered something important. She grabbed He Xia's hand, her entire demeanor filled with anxious unease. "Mom, this is a hospital. As long as a blood test is done, it can be detected."
"It won't be detected, don't worry. Now, stick to what I told you initially. Don't mess up again, or we'll lose everything."
As she spoke, He Xia shook Nan Shiqing vigorously a few times, her eyes conveying a firm command.
Nan Shiqing finally understood.
Afterward, she asked the doctor to move her to Fu Siye's room.
After waiting for about an hour, Fu Siye finally woke up.
Fu Siye's leg was crushed and had a cast.
The first thing he noticed upon waking was the abnormality in his body.
However, he also noticed Nan Shiqing beside him.
Nan Shiqing was slumped by his bedside, her head, hands, and neck wrapped in thick bandages.
Her neck was injured by the girl with glasses.
Her head and hands were from this incident.
The moment Fu Siye moved his hand, Nan Shiqing was startled awake. She gripped Fu Siye's hand, appearing extremely excited. "Siye, you're finally awake!"
In reality, she hadn't been sleeping.
While she was concerned for him, she was also faking it.
When she looked up at Fu Siye, her eyes were filled with tears of joy.
Fu Siye let out a soft "Mm," his expression complex.
In this sudden car accident, Nan Shiqing had protected him at the risk of her own life, saving him once again...
"You're injured too."
Fu Siye's thin lips moved slowly, and his heart was filled with mixed emotions.
Nan Shiqing, despite her own injuries, was guarding him.
Nan Shiqing was ruthless in her pursuit of victory in front of outsiders, but towards him, she had twice risked her life to save him.
Fortunately, this time she hadn't lost consciousness like during the fire.
Fu Siye remembered Dyson saying he was already on his way to the hospital. Immediately, he frowned and asked Nan Shiqing in a low voice, "How long was I unconscious?"
Nan Shiqing lowered her head, taking all the blame onto herself.
"A little over an hour. Siye, I'm so sorry. It's my fault this time. If I hadn't asked you to take me, you wouldn't have had this accident."
"It was an accident; it has nothing to do with you."
Although Fu Siye said this to comfort Nan Shiqing, he knew deep down that this was no accident.
There were no coincidences like this!
The Feast of Ultimate Bliss, the elevator, and now this car accident – it seemed someone wanted him dead, not Mu Yinyin.
Nan Shiqing was restless, and just as she was about to respond, the hospital room door was pushed open from the outside.
"Siye—"
Someone anxiously called out Fu Siye's name.
Their familiar voices made them look up, and they saw Dyson rushing in from the doorway.
Upon seeing Fu Siye, Dyson let out a long sigh of relief.
"When I arrived at the infectious diseases department, they told me you were in a car accident and at the emergency room. Fortunately, you're not seriously injured."
