Chapter 492 Schemes (2)
"Prepare the car and go out with me."
"Yes!"
Chi Moqing's request was too urgent, and Jian Ning didn't have time to reply to the text message. His heart was entirely on his phone; he hadn't replied to Lucy's message. What would Lucy think? Would she think he wasn't a man and didn't want to take responsibility?
Although he doesn't know how to take responsibility for Lucy yet, he's a man and he certainly can't do something so despicable as to take advantage of her and then leave her unattended. Besides, Lucy is someone he also has feelings for.
Suddenly, his phone received another text message, which startled Jian Ning.
"Concentrate on driving!"
Chi Moqing's cold voice rang out, and Jian Ning quickly composed herself, letting out a silent sigh as she replied, "Yes, Commander!"
The commander hasn't investigated what happened last night yet, but if anything goes wrong, he'll be really doomed. Calm down, calm down, we'll talk about it when we have time.
As soon as the red light turned on, he dashed off. His only thought was to get Chi Moqing there quickly so he could have time to talk to Lucy.
"Jian Ning, watch out!"
Before Chi Moqing could even finish speaking and before Jian Ning could react, the car was hit.
boom!
With a loud crash, the surrounding area became lively.
The impact was significant. Their car had been specially treated; although the noise was loud, the interior only trembled slightly. Jian Ning was certain that the cars that crashed into them afterward wouldn't be so lucky.
"Commander, you wait inside, I'll go out and check." Jian Ning instantly became alert. Their car was huge; if they weren't blind, they would never have driven so recklessly. Could it be a terrorist attack?
However, this thought froze Jian Ning when she saw the car crashing into her. This wasn't the car Lucy had driven last night... Could it be...?
"Lucy!" Jian Ning's heart ached sharply, and she rushed over immediately. Sure enough, she saw the woman sitting in the driver's seat, and it really was Lucy.
"It's you?" Song Yutong covered her forehead, blood seeping from between her fingers. Lucy, on the other hand, seemed to have fainted, her face deathly pale.
Song Yutong was stunned: "Lucy! Oh my god, help!"
Before Song Yutong could make a call, Jian Ning quickly carried Lucy out. His handsome military uniform was covered in blood, and he looked at Lucy, his body ice-cold.
Chi Moqing got out of the car and saw Lucy covered in blood. He frowned. It seemed that her injuries were serious and needed to be treated immediately.
Song Yutong got out of the car and immediately saw Chi Moqing. She had to admit, this man was incredibly handsome and imposing. If it weren't for that goofy Lu Yaoyuan around, she might have fallen for him too.
With that aura and those looks, any woman would be captivated and mesmerized.
Chi Moqing walked over and said, "An ambulance has already been called. Don't move around."
Song Yutong nodded, then, remembering the clients who were waiting for them, quickly took out her phone to call them. They were all regular clients, so they were easy to talk to. She then called Yan Zuozuo to let her know.
Upon hearing that there had been a car accident, Yan Zuozuo immediately became anxious. "What happened? Are you alright? Did you call an ambulance? I'll be right there."
"It's alright, the ambulance will be here soon. You go and discuss the contract first, we're fine here."
Yan Zuozuo hung up, feeling extremely anxious. She was worried about Song Yutong and Lucy's safety; as for Bai Ningxuan's matter in the afternoon, she could wait...
and many more!
Why wait? If, as Chi Moqing said, Bai Ningxuan won't side with Master J, and if Bai Ningxuan and Tong Shili have mutual feelings for each other, perhaps…
Yan Zuozuo's eyes lit up!
"Deputy Director Tong, please come in for a moment."
Tong Shili sat down in front of Yan Zuozuo, her brows furrowed. "Does the director mean that I'm the only one who will handle the collaboration project?"
"Director Song and Lucy were in a car accident. I have to go to the hospital to see them. There's nothing I can do about it. Doesn't Deputy Director Tong have any confidence?"
"No, but... was their car accident serious?"
"It's not clear yet. You go to Mr. Bai's place first, and I'll go to the hospital to check on him."
Tong Shili nodded, not refusing.
Yan Zuozuo was very satisfied. With Song Yutong in trouble, they had to temporarily replace her. To put it bluntly, this was also an opportunity for Tong Shili and Bai Ningxuan. Perhaps even God intended to bring them together.
"Mr. Bai is a very nice person, so you don't need to be nervous later. Let's go now."
Tong Shili followed Yan Zuozuo out the door, but the thought of seeing Bai Ningxuan gave her a strange feeling.
At the hospital, Lucy was in the operating room, while Song Yutong's injuries were not serious and had already been treated.
Chi Moqing sat on the other side, not saying a word the entire time. Jian Ning, on the other hand, was very worried. Watching the patients coming and going around them, he became increasingly worried about Lucy.
Chi Moqing narrowed his eyes. Come to think of it, including this time, they had only met Lucy twice and had no further contact. But judging from Jian Ning's current demeanor, it was obvious that she was quite familiar with Lucy. That worried expression was completely unlike that of an ordinary friend.
"General Chi Shang." Song Yutong walked over and sat down next to Chi Moqing. "I'm so sorry about today, I bumped into General Chi Shang's car."
It was obvious that they had violated the rules. Although they are relatives, the other vehicle was a military vehicle, and it was their fault. They should apologize.
"No need to be so polite. Did you call Yuanyao?" Chi Moqing asked.
Song Yutong shook her head: "He's away on a business trip, and I don't have anything important to do, so there's no need to tell him."
Chi Moqing nodded: "Was it your friend who was driving just now?"
"Yes, I don't know what happened, Lucy seemed distracted today. This is our fault, and we will take responsibility. It's just..."
"What is she thinking? She can't even concentrate on driving, does she want to die!" Jian Ning couldn't help but interrupt Song Yutong. He was very sensitive to anything related to Lucy now.
"I don't know either. When I saw her today, she seemed out of sorts."
Upon hearing this, Jian Ning's expression changed drastically!
Could Lucy's car accident today be because of what happened last night?
Just then, a group of people walked over. They were all high-ranking officials, and there were also police officers. They all treated Chi Moqing with utmost respect.
Lucy was wheeled into her ward after surgery. She could faintly hear conversations outside, mostly with Chi Moqing, their tone extremely respectful. She was shocked; this man's status and position were impressive.
After a brief exchange, the police told Song Yutong she had time to give a statement and then left. The doctor came to report on Lucy's condition; it wasn't serious, and they said she could visit him now.
Chi Moqing went in to check on Lucy, then left after saying he had something to do. Lucy was secretly disappointed.
Chi Moqing left the hospital quickly, unaware of the tall, slender figure hiding in the shadows.
Jian Ning drove very fast, unconsciously revealing a hint of anxious worry and unease. Perhaps he himself didn't realize it, but Chi Moqing, sitting in the back, saw it clearly.
The car was going incredibly fast, like it was reckless. Chi Moqing frowned and said, "Stop the car!"
Jian Ning was taken aback and quickly pulled the car over to the side of the road. "Chief, what are your orders?"
What is your relationship with Lucy?
Jian Ning paused, stammering for a long time without being able to give a coherent answer, "We...we haven't known each other for very long...actually, I don't know..."
Chi Moqing's face darkened: "Tell the truth!"
He was always dignified, and now he had a frightening face. Jian Ning gasped sharply; it seemed the truth could no longer be hidden.
"It was...it was last night...I drank too much, and then...I made a mistake..." Jian Ning said, her face flushed and she sounded guilty. Chi Moqing's eyes darkened. "You slept with her?"
Uh, isn't the leader being a bit too blunt?
Jian Ning nodded timidly, and sure enough, she saw that Chi Moqing's expression had become even colder.
He's doomed. His wife is also pregnant and pampered by the boss, while his tigress is also pregnant, but he...
Jian Ning's heart trembled. What if the commander exploded and wanted him dead?
"Commander, I know I was wrong... but it's already happened, I can't... I can't not take responsibility for Lucy..."
Chi Moqing narrowed his cold eyes: "How do you plan to take responsibility?"
Jian Ning was confused and conflicted. He wasn't so heartless as to divorce his wife and marry Lucy, and besides, a husband can't file for divorce while his wife is pregnant. But he really couldn't shirk responsibility towards Lucy; wouldn't that make him seem unmanly?
Seeing Chi Moqing's gloomy face, Jian Ning wished she could disappear into a crack in the ground.
“Jian Ning, as your superior, I have no right to interfere with your privacy. But you are a soldier, and soldiers should maintain a soldier's discipline. Between two women, choose one?”
Huh? Choose one?
Jian Ning was stunned. His wife was pregnant, and his infidelity was already a grave sin; of course, he should return to his wife and atone for his mistake. But to just abandon Lucy like that was impossible. Even if Lucy wasn't outstanding, she was still his woman. Could he be such a bastard?
Seeing Jian Ning's hesitation, Chi Moqing's brows furrowed even more deeply. In matters of the heart, the worst thing is indecisiveness and dragging things out, ultimately hurting everyone. Chi Moqing despised men like that; they were clearly trying to have their cake and eat it too—utter scoundrels!
However, it is unforgivable that his closest soldier would make such a basic mistake.
"Can't decide?"
Chi Moqing's words were icy, sending a chill down Jian Ning's spine. He knew Chi Moqing's character very well; before meeting his wife, he had never given a second glance to any of the beautiful women around him, let alone cared about any of them, not even those two so-called rumored girlfriends.
He thought the commander simply didn't understand love and had no romantic feelings. But after the wife appeared and he saw the commander's attitude towards her, he fully understood the commander's thoughts.
Of all the waters in the world, I only need a single sip!
Once he's made up his mind about that woman, no matter what other women come along, the leader will never be tempted again.
Love should be about wholehearted devotion.
But for him, making a choice was truly difficult and painful. He loved his wife, but as time went on, he always felt something was missing. Lucy rekindled the flame of his love, making him unable to resist the burning passion within him. This kind of passion had been absent for a long time.
Chi Moqing looked at him coldly: "If you can't make a choice in twenty-four hours, pack your bags and leave!"
Jian Ning gasped sharply, staring at Chi Moqing in disbelief. Chi Moqing, however, didn't want to look at him at all. He had seen how hard his wife's pregnancy had been, and he wished he could take away all her pain and spare her from that tearing pain.
But this kid...
If his young wife found out about Jian Ning's affair, she would probably be angry too. He would absolutely not allow anyone to anger his wife!
