Chapter 135 Car Accident, Scumbag Loses Both Legs
Chapter 135 Car Accident, Scumbag Loses Both Legs
After receiving Jiang Qingkong's call, Xie Xingyun hesitated for a long time before turning his car around and driving away towards Jingshan Hot Spring Hotel.
Jingshan Hot Spring Hotel is located far from the urban area of Dongzhou, nestled in a valley of natural scenic resorts. It is the most upscale hotel-style hot spring resort in Dongzhou City.
The hot spring pools here are genuine, pure, wild hot springs, hence the high-end nature of the prices, with room rates averaging four thousand per night.
The presidential suite is outrageously expensive, costing 15,000 yuan per night.
Last winter, after Xie Xingyun and Jiang Qingkong confirmed their relationship, their first date was at the Jingshan Hot Spring Hotel.
That day, Xie Xingyun booked the presidential suite and asked the hotel staff to decorate the hotel in a romantic and luxurious way in advance.
That night, Jiang Qingkong gave her first time to Xie Xingyun.
On the bed, on the sofa, in the private hot spring pool...
Everywhere was their battlefield of love.
"Miss Jiang."
The hotel lobby manager called Jiang Qingkong to ask, "Your breakfast is ready. Would you like us to deliver it to your room?"
"Please bring it up."
After a pause, Jiang Qingkong instructed the manager, "Does your hotel have a pastry chef? Could you make me a cake?"
"Of course, Miss Jiang, what kind of cake would you like?"
With her red lips slightly upturned, Jiang Qingkong said, "Today is the one-year anniversary of my relationship with my husband, so please make me a cake suitable for our anniversary celebration."
"OK, wait."
Soon, staff pushed a food cart to the presidential suite, first serving a sumptuous breakfast, then presenting Jiang Qingkong with a pastry chef's menu for her to choose from.
"Ms. Jiang, our hotel can make the following 12 cakes today. Please take a look and see which one you would like."
Jiang Qingkong carefully selected the cakes, and finally chose a blue-purple gradient mille-feuille cake. "I'll take this one."
"it is good."
She sat in the restaurant, calmly and leisurely eating her breakfast, her phone screen lit up with a flashing green location marker.
If anyone were here, they would recognize that this is Xie Xingyun's location.
Location data shows that Xie Xingyun has left Dongzhou city and entered the ring expressway, heading towards the Jingshan Hot Spring Hotel.
Judging from this distance, he will arrive in about two hours.
After drinking half a bowl of warm porridge, Jiang Qingkong put down the porcelain spoon, wiped her mouth, and then logged into the WeChat app.
As soon as I went online, I received inquiries from twenty or thirty friends.
[Clear Sky, Xie Jiaoyue is dead? Is it a rumor or true?]
This is outrageous! I woke up this morning to find media outlets spreading rumors that Xie Jiaoyue was murdered. Have people really lost all sense of decency when it comes to spreading rumors these days?
Miss Jiang, is Xie Jiaoyue really gone?
...
Tsk.
Jiang Qingkong didn't reply to her friends' messages. Instead, she opened the WeChat group where all the rich kids in Dongzhou City were.
The group was more lively than ever before, with everyone discussing whether Xie Jiaoyue was really dead.
Some bolder people even tagged Xie Jiaoyue herself.
As Xie Jiaoyue's sister-in-law, Jiang Qingkong was naturally tagged as well.
The news of Xie Jiaoyue's death has not been confirmed, and there are various speculations and analyses in the group.
Jiang Qingkong replied directly in the group chat: "It is with great sadness that I inform everyone that our Jiaoyue has indeed been murdered and passed away. The murderer has already turned himself in."
The group chat was silent for a few seconds, then it exploded.
[Holy crap! Xie Jiaoyue is really dead!]
[The killer has turned himself in? She was murdered? Who has the nerve to do that?!]
[Clear Sky, please accept my condolences.]
【Sorry. 】
Sigh, this matter...
Xie Jiaoyue was trending on major online platforms all day yesterday, and this little princess of Zhaixing Entertainment also earned the new nickname 'Zhaixing Devil'.
After learning about Xie Jiaoyue's despicable deeds, even these familiar friends in the rich second-generation group found it unbelievable.
There were three or four victims among them.
Yesterday, they also cursed Xie Jiaoyue in the group chat, calling her vicious and deserving to die, calling her hypocritical and shameless, and saying that she must go to the eighteenth level of hell after she dies.
They felt a pang of sadness upon hearing that Xie Jiaoyue had truly been killed.
It's not that I regret Xie Jiaoyue's early death, but rather that I'm struck by the impermanence of life.
Jiang Qingkong ignored the other people's questions and only answered the message inquiring about the killer's identity: "[The killer's surname seems to be Zeng, and he's a man. I don't know anything else.]"
[The murderer's surname is Zeng? And it's a man? Do you remember Zeng Yue, who was driven to suicide by depression by Xie Jiaoyue?]
【Remember!】
A woman surnamed An revealed: "Xie Jiaoyue and I were classmates in high school. We were in the international class, while Zeng Yue was a top student in the experimental class. She and Xie Jiaoyue had a very good relationship and were inseparable."
Zeng Yue had excellent grades and was a promising candidate for a top university. It wasn't a secret that she had been assaulted years ago; she suffered severe depression afterward and didn't even take the college entrance exam.
About three years ago, I heard that she committed suicide, and Xie Jiaoyue helped arrange her funeral after her death.
On the day of Zeng Yue's funeral, Xie Jiaoyue posted a long and touching essay on her WeChat Moments...
After reading Miss An's revelations, the young men and women in the group all rose up in rebellion, angrily denouncing Xie Jiaoyue: "Xie Jiaoyue is so hypocritical and disgusting!"
[The person who killed her also happened to have the surname Zeng, and he was a man. Could he be Zeng Yue's closest relative? Her brother or father?]
It's highly likely. If that's the case, then Xie Jiaoyue's death was truly not unjust...
One young nobleman remarked, "So, Xie Jiaoyue is really wicked. It seems you can't trust anything she says."
Many people below echoed: "That's right, she used to constantly mention Gu Huaizhou, making everyone think she was the future young mistress of the Gu family. And what happened?"
Speaking of Gu Huaizhou, have you heard about what happened at the Gu family last night?
Gu Huaizhou has officially assumed the position of Chairman of the Gu Group!
[Damn, we're both around 27 or 28 years old, and while we're still gossiping online in the group chat, he's already a business tycoon in the eighteen cities of Dongzhou.]
Suddenly, the youngest son of the Yin family jumped out and said mysteriously, "[...Oh, right, I have some juicy gossip to share. Last night, I went to the Gu family with my grandfather and not only did I see that young Chairman Gu, but I also saw a young girl with him.]"
Guess who that girl is.
Ok?
People in the group were asking who the girl was.
The young master Yin had kept everyone in suspense until the answer was revealed: [It's Li Xi!]
Li Xi?
Some people didn't know who Li Xi was, but some of the wealthy young ladies who knew Xie Jiaoyue did.
[Is she Xie Jiaoyue's little follower? She's quite pretty, but supposedly a lazy, materialistic adopted daughter of the Xie family?]
Upon seeing this, Jiang Xinghe, who had been lurking online, couldn't help but chime in to defend Li Xi: [Lazy and materialistic? Xie Jiaoyue is a complete liar; you actually believe what she says?]
Jiang Xinghe's reminder brought everyone back to their senses.
Yes.
Xie Jiaoyue is a liar; nine out of ten sentences she utters are lies, and the remaining one is nonsense.
They weren't familiar with Li Xi, so they didn't know what kind of person he was, all of which depended on Xie Jiaoyue's words.
The young master of the Yin family added, "In my opinion, that woman named Li Xi is the one Mr. Gu truly favors. Last night, Mr. Gu invited Li Xi to dance, but she refused."
When they learned that Li Xi had actually refused Gu Huaizhou's invitation to dance, everyone found it quite unbelievable.
Is Li Xi truly unwilling to tolerate Gu Huaizhou, or is she playing a game of feigned indifference?
Jiang Xinghe then added, "Don't you guys find it strange? The Xie family was able to join the ranks of Dongzhou City's elite families entirely because Xie Jiaoyue saved young Chairman Gu back then. But recently, the Xie family's scandals have been frequently exposed, and Xie Jiaoyue herself is utterly wicked."
[The Gu family hasn't even made a statement about Xie Jiaoyue's murder; it's clear they intend to ignore it completely. This is strange.]
【so...】
Behind the computer screen, Jiang Xinghe typed out the last sentence and sent it: "Was Xie Jiaoyue really the one who saved Xiao Gu back then?"
Once the hook is out there, there's no worry about finding someone to bite.
Jiang Xinghe then sent Gu Huaizhou a WeChat message: [Brother Zhen, I've already spread the news that the entire Xie family are villains who gained wealth by stepping on Li Xi's achievements.]
I'm going to catch up on sleep now, we'll talk again tonight.
After shutting down the computer, Jiang Xinghe went to sleep.
The thought that the melon farmers in the group would spare no effort to spread this news, and that the Xie family would never be able to recover, made Jiang Xinghe feel very good. He had fought a war of public opinion for Li Xi.
*
Jiang Qingkong immediately realized that Jiang Xinghe was deliberately leaking information to these rich young men, guiding them to speculate about the Xie family and discover the truth from 12 years ago.
He was helping Li Xi gain the sympathy of the onlookers.
The discussion that followed was rather uninteresting, and Jiang Qingkong lost interest in reading it. She exited WeChat and reopened the location app.
Seeing that Xie Xingyun was about to get off the highway, Jiang Qingkong couldn't help but hum a little tune.
She opened her makeup bag and began applying her makeup.
Today is her one-year anniversary with Xie Xingyun, so of course she wants to be at her most perfect and elegant for the date...
*
After exiting the highway, the car drove along the wide national road for more than 20 minutes before the navigation system reminded Xie Xingyun: "Turn right ahead and take the middle lane."
Xie Xingyun turned right as indicated by the navigation and drove in the middle lane.
Before long, he saw a road sign that said it was 30 kilometers away from Jingshan Hot Spring Resort.
Today is Wednesday, a workday, and there are hardly any cars on the road in the early morning, so Xie Xingyun drove at 100 km/h.
The hotel is located in a valley, and the last five kilometers of the road is a winding mountain road built along the mountainside.
Seeing that there were few vehicles on the road and none of them seemed to be slowing down, Xie Xingyun was reminded by the navigation system: "You are about to enter a bend, please drive carefully."
Xie Xingyun continued driving at 80 miles per hour and used the voice control function to make a phone call to Jiang Qingkong.
As soon as the call connected, Xie Xingyun told Jiang Qingkong, "I'll be there soon. Come find me in the hotel lobby..."
"Husband." Jiang Qingkong carefully drew her eyebrows with an eyebrow pencil.
She drew her eyebrows into delicate, arched shapes today, making her small face look even more exquisite and charming.
Looking at her bright eyes, white teeth, and charming face in the mirror, Jiang Qingkong said to herself, "Today is our one-year anniversary. On this day last year, I gave you my purest self."
“I was very nervous at the time, and you comforted me by saying you would cherish me for the rest of your life and take responsibility for me. At that time, I asked you, what would you do if you betrayed me?”
"Honey, do you remember what your answer was back then?"
Hearing Jiang Qingkong's nonsensical words, Xie Xingyun was filled with anger. "Jiang Qingkong, my sister is dead. Who has the mood to talk to you about these trivial matters!"
"...That's really heartbreaking." Jiang Qingkong's tone sounded cheerful, without a trace of sadness.
"Hey."
Jiang Qingkong put down her eyebrow pencil, then twisted her lipstick to apply lipstick. She pursed her lips and said sadly, "I wonder if Jiaoyue asked for help when she was harmed?"
"I think she must have begged the murderer, after all, everyone is afraid of dying."
"I still remember that night you pushed me down the stairs. I begged you to save me, begging to save my life. But murderers are hard-hearted; they won't show any mercy."
"So, our Jiaoyue was killed at such a young age."
"Sigh." Jiang Qingkong sighed dramatically, "Jiaoyue wasn't as lucky as me. That night, my brother arrived in time and took me to the hospital, saving my life."
"You're also my older brother, but you didn't rush to save Jiaoyue in time. Sigh, you're not a good older brother."
"I think Jiaoyue must have missed you terribly when she died."
...
"Jiang Qingkong, you beast!"
"you shut up!"
"Jiaoyue is dead, how can you still utter such nonsense without batting an eye!"
Xie Xingyun was enraged by Jiang Qingkong and almost lost his reason.
Just then, a wild boar suddenly charged down the jungle slope on the left!
Distracted by the phone call, Xie Xingyun saw a dark figure appear ahead and, mistaking it for a person, instinctively slammed on the brakes to avoid it...
Squeak!
With a sudden stop, the high-speed vehicle crashed through the guardrail beside the curve, tumbling down the slope with its occupants inside!
Bang bang bang!
The car rolled over three or four times on the slope before finally landing on a wasteland at the bottom.
The car was severely deformed and began to smoke, while Xie Xingyun remained unconscious.
And this place is only two kilometers away from the hot spring hotel.
Hearing the screams from the other end of the phone, Jiang Qingkong slowly curled her red lips into a smile.
She whispered to herself in the mirror, "You once said that if you betrayed me or hurt me, you would willingly let me break your legs."
"Honey, how could I let you down?"
Closing her eyes and suppressing her burning hatred, Jiang Qingkong took a deep breath, then grabbed her phone and rushed out of the room, crying out in anguish, "Help! My husband's been in a car accident! Someone, come quick, save him!"
The hotel's surveillance cameras clearly captured the scene where Jiang Qingkong was so frightened upon learning of her husband's car accident that her legs went weak and she could barely walk, needing to hold onto the wall to move.
...
Six minutes later, the hotel manager arrived at the scene of the car accident with Jiang Qingkong and her bodyguards.
Seeing that Xie Xingyun's car had started to burn and could explode at any moment, the bodyguard captain said with a grim face, "Manager, the car could explode at any time. It would be too risky to rush forward to rescue it."
"Let's wait for the rescue team to arrive."
"Xingyun!" Jiang Qingkong didn't care about anything else. Wearing the hotel's cotton slippers, she scrambled down the slope and rushed towards the burning car without looking back.
"Miss Jiang!" The hotel manager exclaimed in surprise.
Jiang Qingkong checked into their hotel. If she dies here today, the hotel will also be held responsible.
The manager could only yell at the bodyguards: "Go get the fire extinguishers and help! I'll give you all a bonus later! 100,000 each!"
Upon hearing this, the bodyguard captain rushed forward for the first time, carrying a fire extinguisher!
Jiang Qingkong opened the car door before everyone else, unbuckled Xie Xingyun's seatbelt, and dragged the blood-covered Xie Xingyun out of the car.
Taking advantage of the fact that no one was paying attention, Jiang Qingkong snatched the phone that Xie Xingyun was holding tightly and threw it into the back seat of the car.
When the bodyguard captain saw that Jiang Qingkong had rescued Xie Xingyun, he quickly dropped the fire extinguisher and helped Jiang Qingkong drag Xie Xingyun away from the wrecked car.
The three had just escaped to this side of the slope when the car exploded completely.
Xie Xingyun was startled awake by the loud explosion. The first thing he saw when he opened his eyes was his wife, Jiang Qingkong, gazing at him with 'affection'...
He couldn't feel his legs at all...
*
On that day, news broke that Xie Xingyun had been seriously injured in a car accident and was hospitalized, facing the possibility of amputation of both legs.
At the same time, a touching video circulated showing his wife, Jiang Qingkong, risking her life to rush into the accident scene and pull him out of the car.
The video was taken by the hotel manager.
After this video was released, who wouldn't praise Jiang Qingkong for her deep affection for Xie Xingyun?
When Li Xi saw the video online, her pink lips curled up slightly.
Voila.
She knew that making Jiang Qingkong marry Xie Xingyun would be the best revenge against Xie Xingyun.
