136: Chapter 136: Car Accident 136: Chapter 136: Car Accident Ye Shikai floored the accelerator, the car shooting out of the parking lot at breakneck speed.
It wasn’t long before he saw An Lan’s car zooming down the road.
Ye Shikai didn’t dare to delay, revving up to full power to chase after An Lan, while constantly trying to call her.
“Answer the phone already,” Ye Shikai couldn’t help but speak to the phone, watching the call that remained unanswered with a growing sense of urgency.
On the streets of Yanjing, two cars were speeding like bullets, shocking the pedestrians.
Fortunately, compared to An Lan, Ye Shikai was even more reckless, and gradually he drew up alongside An Lan, parallel to her.
“Lan, just stop for a second,” Ye Shikai shouted after winding down his window, even though he didn’t slow down, “Lan, driving this fast is too dangerous.” Ye Shikai watched the oncoming traffic with concern; at such speed, racing on the Yanjing streets was tantamount to suicide.
“Be careful.” Ye Shikai yelled as a car suddenly turned into their path at a corner, blocking An Lan’s way and nearly colliding with her.
Ye Shikai couldn’t care less, flooring the gas pedal and violently steering to the right, overtaking An Lan from the front left side.
“Bang”—Ye Shikai’s car was directly hit by the vehicle coming from the corner, resulting in a fierce collision, and both cars skidded toward the curb.
“No, don’t!” An Lan watched the scene unfold from inside her car and imdiately fell apart.
Why did this fool have to shield her with his own vehicle?
Given the high speeds, the damage to both cars was severe, especially Ye Shikai’s new Lexus which was now completely unrecognizable.
Seeing this, An Lan’s heart clenched violently, and she nearly fainted.
The Lexus was now profoundly dented inward, and she feared for the person inside the car…
An Lan abruptly stopped her car and rushed over like a madwoman, but she was held back by the onlookers—it was dangerous at tis like these, and with such a serious accident, she expected the police would be there any minute.
anwhile, inside the car, Ye Shikai quickly regained consciousness.
The driver’s seat was crushed, so he was relieved that in the mont of impact, he had unfastened the seatbelt and jumped to the passenger seat.
Being a cultivator with Inner Strength, he quickly recovered and was unhard due to his physical robustness compared to an ordinary person.
Imdiately exiting the car, Ye Shikai saw An Lan being overco with joy and bursting into tears as she saw him safe and sound.
Without wasting ti, he went over to the other car, smashed the window, opened the car door, and carried out the unconscious driver, rushing into the crowd.
The driver was the most innocent party involved; he hadn’t done anything wrong, but was caught up in this accident due to the car chase.
An Lan ran to his side, hugging him tightly and sobbing in his arms.
“Lan, don’t ever do that again.
You almost got killed,” Ye Shikai joked, but all he got back were An Lan’s tears.
He believed she must be feeling regretful; an impulsive mont nearly caused a fatal accident, and if it weren’t for Ye Shikai’s rescue, her chances would have been slim.
Shortly after, police cars, ambulances, and fire trucks arrived quickly.
Seeing the critically injured driver, the dical personnel imdiately went to work.
Ye Shikai had already transferred so Inner Strength into him to protect his vitals while checking for injuries, which thankfully were only external without any internal trauma or lingering issues.
After all, the man was innocent and it would have been a sin if he lost his life because of their actions.
However, quite coincidentally, the police officer who ca to take their statent turned out to be Ye Shikai’s nesis.
“Yo, scumbag, it’s you again,” the officer was Zhang Ting, who had expected to move to the detective squad after her previous ritorious deed, but to her dismay, Director Song had decided to keep her in the traffic police squad, much to her frustration.
She had just been notified of a traffic accident with injuries and got dispatched to the scene.
“Yo, Officer Zhang, still playing traffic cop?
It’s a waste of your talent not to join the special forces,” Ye Shikai teased, knowing the reason Zhang Ting was relegated to the traffic police squad, and deliberately ribbing her since she called him a scumbag at first sight.
“Ye, don’t stir the pot where it doesn’t boil,” Zhang Ting glared fiercely at him, her gaze turning even more vicious as she noticed An Lan, whose beauty rivaled that of Su Qingyu, standing next to him.
Zhang Ting looked down on him disdainfully, clearly assuming that Ye was seeking new romantic pursuits.
“What happened?” asked Zhang Ting.
Ye Shikai truthfully recounted the incident, especially playing up the part where he heroically rescued An Lan, which made An Lan feel embarrassed yet her gaze towards him was full of conviction, her hand unconsciously gripping his wrist tightly.
“Okay, then.” Zhang Ting completed the accident report.
Although she disliked Ye Shikai, she believed his story.
She knew about how he had single-handedly rescued Su Qingyu before and silently lanted this lovesick hero, knowing always played the savior wherever he went.
She also trusted that he had the skills to save people.
Zhang Ting would have liked to argue with him, but duty called, and she returned to the police station.
As for the victim, dical bills, car repairs, and compensation would be covered as Ye Shikai spared no expense.
Money couldn’t buy health back, but it was all he could compensate for the mont.
The victim was understanding and didn’t demand unreasonable conditions.
As for his new Lexus, barely warm from the purchase before being wrecked, it didn’t matter to Cheng Yi who imdiately arranged for an identical replacent; indeed, he was extravagantly wealthy.
“Fool, do you realize how dangerous it was today?
If you had died, I…” As the crowd dispersed, An Lan hit Ye Shikai lightly, scolding him.
“So what now, Lan?
Are you going to commit suicide out of guilt?” Ye Shikai said jokingly, “Let’s go back to the company, Qingyu must be worried by now.” Checking his watch, he realized several hours had passed.
He had told Qingyu he would return to explain everything to her; surely, she must be anxious.
