Chapter 438: Chapter 438: Turning the Tables

"What... What’s going on here!"

The ambulance and police cars quickly arrived at the scene. Chi Youyou sat inside the car, looking at the events unfolding diagonally ahead, a cold sweat breaking out on her back.

Slightly shaken.

In her mind, the words Song Shiyu had said earlier suddenly surfaced: Want to watch a good show?

It meant he knew what was going to happen!

But why didn’t he stop it?

Uncle Wang is still in the car!

"Uncle Wang is fine."

Song Shiyu seemed to read her expression and said.

Then he started the car and slowly drove forward. Chi Youyou’s gaze remained on the scene of the two cars colliding.

Her mind was in disarray now.

A thought vaguely rose up; she wasn’t sure if it was true.

But she could confirm that this crash was aimed at her!

"Who was in the car? How did you know there would be a crash?"

Song Shiyu didn’t directly answer her but pressed something on a screen.

"Activating autopilot mode."

A mechanical voice sounded. He let go of the wheel and lifted his foot, yet the car continued to drive steadily on the road.

"It’s the company’s autopilot mode we’ve been developing, but it hasn’t been applied to the market yet."

He explained briefly.

"So there was no one in the car at all?"

"Mm."

Song Shiyu switched back the mode, "I wouldn’t casually joke with lives."

Chi Youyou confirmed there were no casualties in the car, finally heaving a sigh of relief.

"Did you know from the start there would be a crash?" 𝘧𝓇𝑒𝑒𝑤ℯ𝑏𝓃𝘰𝑣ℯ𝘭.𝘤ℴ𝘮

Song Shiyu nodded, "Don’t worry, I’ll handle this matter."

"So it’s the handiwork of the Cheng Family from M Country?"

She calmed down, her suspicions about eighty percent confirmed in her mind.

"You could say it is, but you could also say it isn’t."

Song Shiyu knew she was smart, just usually lazy to use her brain, "According to the information I have, it was orchestrated by your aunt. As for whether others knew, that’s uncertain."

"Since you knew there’d be a crash, why didn’t you try to stop it?"

"Stopping one would lead to a second, and a third. Instead, let it happen as planned. With this crash, at least from now until you go abroad, you’ll be safe."

Song Shiyu was attentively looking ahead, turning a bend, encountering a red light. He stopped the car and turned his head with a slight smile, "Plus, this business was accepted by my people. As the saying goes, keep the profits in the family; naturally, the money should come over."

Chi Youyou: ...

The key point is this, right!

Only a fool wouldn’t make money.

"How much did she pay?"

"Five million."

"Five million? My life is actually worth five million?"

Chi Youyou exclaimed, the butler had only agreed to give her two million. If it were five million, she could have considered it longer!

"Five million was just to stop you from going abroad. If it were for a life, it would cost more."

"She just wanted to stop me from going abroad?"

"Of course not... She initially offered seven million for two lives. Exactly how little does she think of us in Huaxia? Seven million for two lives, nobody wanted to take the deal. I negotiated with her for five million to stop you from going abroad."

Chi Youyou: ...

Indeed a top-class shrewd businessman, never engaging in a losing deal.

"So there was no one in that truck either?"

"Mm."

"No wonder the ambulance and police arrived soon after. Did you arrange it all like a one-stop service?"

"No, I just calculated that the nearby police station and hospital are very close. Arranging it beforehand would have been too fake."

"Impressive!"

Chi Youyou had to admit, this show was orchestrated quite well.

And they extorted a lot of money!

Wait a minute!

At this thought, a new idea popped into her head. If Song Shiyu could do this, why couldn’t she?

She glanced at Song Shiyu, her eyes narrowing into a cunning smile:

"Since we’re already playing this far, why don’t I add another act to the show?"

"How did a crash occur?"

Cheng Shujin was planning to visit Chi Youyou’s house and made a call, only for Song Shiyu to answer.

"Which hospital, I’ll come over right now!"

"Young master, where are you going?"

Uncle Wan had heard his voice early in the morning, but still asked aloud.

"Chi Youyou got into an accident. She struggled all night, and now she’s just out of a life-threatening situation."

"Ah! How could this happen!"

"Forget it for now; I’m going to the hospital!"

"Let me drive you!"

"No need, I have a driver waiting downstairs for me."

With that, he grabbed his sunglasses and mask and rushed out.

Uncle Wan thought about it, uncertain, and followed, "Young master, wait for me, I’ll go with you!"

He’d known about the crash since yesterday, but to be sure of the situation, he had to see it with his own eyes!

Imperial City’s First People’s Hospital.

"How did the crash suddenly happen!"

When Cheng Shujin arrived, all of Chi Youyou’s friends were waiting at the door.

Although the ward inside was large, the doctor said that to ensure the patient could rest well, no more than two people could visit at a time, and the visit time couldn’t exceed five minutes.

The main reason being, the doctor hadn’t expected so many people would come to visit!

It was already the most luxurious ward area in the entire hospital!

Now, looking at the crowd of people, even he felt his hospital was too small!

Song Shiyu explained the situation briefly. When it was their turn to go in, Cheng Shujin only felt a tightness in his throat, speechless.

She was lively just yesterday, and now she lay wrapped tightly on the bed!

"Youyou hasn’t fully woken up. The doctor said she can hear our voices, but when she’ll wake up is still uncertain."

Cheng Shujin took a breath and nodded.

Finally, he said a few words to her to rest well and then left the ward.

Other people were waiting to visit.

"I’ll cover the medical expenses; just send me the bills."

As Song Shiyu escorted them out, Cheng Shujin thought for a moment and said.

"No need. She’s my fiancée now. As long as she recovers, all this is minor."

Forget it, he’ll just transfer the money directly to Chi Youyou later!

He thought about it and decided not to say more, leaving the hospital with Uncle Wan.

"Young master, can Miss Chi still go to M Country like this?"

"We’ll see. If she really can’t go, there’s nothing to be done."

Cheng Shujin sighed, preparing to close his eyes, then suddenly opened them in alarm, "Uncle Wan, could this have been orchestrated by my mom?"

"Young master! How could you think that of Madam? No matter what, Miss Chi is still part of the Cheng Family."

"As long as it’s not."

Cheng Shujin couldn’t discern anything from Uncle Wan’s face, so he simply closed his eyes, though he still couldn’t rest easy in his heart.

Everything! It was too coincidental!
