The truck driver only accepted Fu Desheng's job for the money.

He thought it was a great deal to kill someone in a car accident, go to jail for a few years, and then come out with more money than he could earn in several lifetimes. He felt that this gave him hope for the rest of his life.

However, he only hit the cars he was supposed to hit. He knew that every additional life lost would come with a price to pay, and he didn't want to get involved in any other murder cases.

Therefore, the truck driver followed Qi Ruo and her group for a while. When they were almost in the middle of the bridge, there were no other vehicles around them, so the timing was perfect.

He took one last look at the license plate number on the back of the car, and after confirming that the license plate number was correct, he gritted his teeth and stepped on the gas pedal to the floor, crashing straight into the car in front of him.

The driver certainly didn't realize that while the car was indeed the same one, the person inside wasn't the one he intended to hit.

Qi Ruo was driving, chatting with Shen Yunhui in a disjointed manner. Every now and then, he would glance at Qi Tongsheng and Fu Shiyi sitting in the back seat through the rearview mirror. The two of them were drunk and leaning against the seats with their eyes closed.

Shen Yunhui also glanced back at the back seat and said, "Shi Yi is so drunk, why don't you stay at the Qi family's place tonight? Don't rush back, leave tomorrow."

Ever since she learned that Fu Shiyi and Qi Ruo had obtained their marriage certificate, Shen Yunhui had been extremely satisfied with Fu Shiyi as her son-in-law.

Even though the Fu family hasn't fully accepted Qi Ruo yet, she feels that once they've registered their marriage, it's only a matter of time before the Fu family accepts her.

After hearing Shen Yunhui's words, Qi Ruo thought it made sense. Since they had stayed at the Qi family's house last night, she didn't want to drive back to Fu Shiyi's place late at night.

She replied, "Okay."

As soon as Qi Ruo finished speaking, she suddenly felt a huge impact from behind the car without any warning!

With a loud "bang," the car shook violently, and Qi Ruo lost control of the steering wheel.

The car, which had been driving smoothly, suddenly became like a wild horse that had broken free of its reins, and went out of control.

"what--"

Qi Ruo and Shen Yunhui were both so frightened that they let out a scream.

Their car was hit by the truck, half of its body was dented, and it rolled and slid a long distance on the bridge before finally crashing into the guardrail on the side of the bridge. The car made another loud noise, and then the whole car burst into flames.

The last guests remaining in the hotel banquet hall were Fu Jinnan and Qi Ning's friends.

Those friends were all acquaintances, and they had drunk some alcohol. They were making a ruckus, insisting on going with them to the bridal chamber to make a ruckus.

Fu Jinnan naturally couldn't agree to stay there and deal with them.

Qi Ning was also smiling beside her.

At this moment, the system told Qi Ning: "Host, it's a success! The truck severely damaged the car that Qi Ruo and the other three were in, and the entire car is on fire. Their fate is now unknown."

Upon hearing this, Qi Ning instantly felt relieved.

"That's good."

When Fu Desheng caused the car accident that harmed Fu Jinnan last time, he only arranged for an ordinary car. He probably didn't want Fu Jinnan to die; he just wanted to cripple him and disqualify him from inheriting the family business.

This time, however, Fu Desheng was driven to desperation and arranged for a heavy truck, specifically designed to kill them.

The car that Qi Ruo and the others were driving was hit by a large truck and then caught fire. Even if the four of them were lucky enough to survive, they would either be dead or maimed.

Qi Ning chuckled inwardly: "With this result, I guess I've accomplished my mission?"

The system replied, "Of course, the original owner's request was to take revenge on those four. After this car accident, their fate will not be good."

Qi Ning hummed in agreement.

What happens next depends on the fate of those four people.

After a while, Qi Ning and Fu Jinnan finally saw their friends off and got into the car.

Secretary Yang drove ahead to their bridal chamber.

While crossing the bridge, Secretary Yang suddenly stopped the car.

"What's wrong?" Fu Jinnan asked.

Secretary Yang opened the car window, leaned out to look, and replied, "President Fu, there seems to have been a car accident ahead, and the bridge is closed."

Fu Jinnan naturally saw the scene in front of him and knew what was going on.

He and Qi Ning exchanged a glance.

Secretary Yang then said, "President Fu, I'm afraid we can't go this way. Shall we try another route?"

Fu Jinnan replied calmly, "Then let's take another route."

"Yes."

Secretary Yang found a place to turn the car around and took another route to their bridal chamber.

However, before their car even arrived at their bridal chamber, Fu Jinnan and Qi Ning received calls from the police and the hospital, respectively.

They were notified as relatives of the victims.

Upon receiving the news, they turned their car around again and headed to the hospital.

In fact, the hospital and the police had contacted Fu Desheng and his wife, but they were so drunk that they were unconscious and had been sent home, so they didn't receive the call.

Not long after Qi Ning and Fu Jinnan arrived at the hospital, Grandpa Fu and Grandma Fu also received the news and rushed to the hospital overnight. On the contrary, Fu Desheng and his wife were late in showing up.

When the old man and woman arrived at the hospital, Fu Jinnan was communicating with the doctors and the police, while Qi Ning waited outside the operating room.

"Ning Ning!"

The old lady saw Qi Ning sitting outside the operating room and called out to her.

Qi Ning raised her head and wiped away the tears on her face.

"Mom and Dad, you're here."

She stepped forward to help the old lady.

"How is the situation?" the old man asked.

Qi Ning gestured towards the operating room: "All four of them are still in the operating room undergoing emergency treatment."

What about southern Shanxi?

"He went to communicate with the doctor and the police, and he'll be here soon."

The old lady heard the sob in Qi Ning's voice and saw the tears in the corners of her eyes, and knew that she must be worried about Qi Tongsheng.

The old lady became even more anxious. After all, the four of them were in the same car. If Qi Tongsheng was seriously injured, Fu Shiyi would definitely not be much better off.

Is the situation very serious?

Qi Ning nodded: "I heard that all four of them were seriously injured."

As they were talking, Fu Jinnan walked towards them.

"Mom and Dad, you've come too."

The old man's face was grave: "We received the news, how could we sleep? Of course we had to come and see."

He asked Fu Jinnan, "What exactly happened? How could a car accident happen out of nowhere?"

Fu Jinnan asked Qi Ning to help the old lady sit down, and then he told the old man about the situation.

"I just checked, and they were hit by a large truck. The impact was so strong that the car was dented halfway on the spot, then it rolled over to the side of the bridge and hit the guardrail, which caused the vehicle to catch fire."

"As for why the truck crashed into their car, we'll have to investigate to find out."

The old man sighed, leaning on his cane, and instructed Fu Jinnan, "You must find out the truth."

Fu Jinnan naturally agreed.

Only then did the old man realize that Fu Desheng and Wu Lixia were not there.

"Where are your older brother and sister-in-law? Why haven't they arrived yet?"

“My brother and sister-in-law are both drunk tonight, and no one is answering their phones,” Fu Jinnan said. “However, I have already arranged for someone to go and inform them personally.”

"Outrageous! What are they doing getting so drunk at your wedding? They have no sense of propriety at all. They don't even know their own son was in a car accident," the old man reprimanded with a harsh expression.

Fu Jinnan and Qi Ning didn't respond to this, of course they knew that Fu Desheng and his wife would be that drunk.

The reason they were drunk was to prevent them from ruining tonight's operation, but fortunately everything went smoothly.

Fu Jinnan said to the old man and woman, "Mom and Dad, it's getting late. Why don't you go back first? Ningning and I will stay here and keep watch."

“Yes,” Qi Ning echoed. “Mom and Dad, we’ll stay here and keep watch. We’ll let you know as soon as we have any news.”

The old man and woman are both over seventy years old. Although they have always been in good health, I'm still worried that they might not be able to handle the shock.

But the old man shook his head and said stubbornly, "I won't go back. I'll wait for news here."

The old lady sighed and said, "We won't feel at ease going back home, so let's stay in the hospital."

She took Qi Ning's hand and patted it: "Poor child, today is your wedding with Jin Nan, and this kind of thing has happened."

"Mom, I'm fine."

Qi Ning lowered her eyes and shook her head, which made the old lady feel even more affectionate.

What she didn't know was that Qi Ning wasn't sad at all, nor did she mind that her wedding was affected. Tonight's car accident was the best wedding gift.

Since the old man and woman didn't want to go back, Fu Jinnan arranged a VIP ward for them at the hospital so they could rest there. It was better than waiting outside the operating room.

It's unclear how much time passed before Fu Desheng and Wu Lixia rushed to the hospital.

They were forcibly woken up by the people Fu Jinnan had arranged for them, and then given hangover soup.

When they vaguely woke up, they only remembered that they were excited because they wanted to get rid of Fu Jinnan and Qi Ning completely, so they drank a few more cups of wine at the banquet. When Fu Jinnan came over to toast them, they drank a few more cups and got so drunk that they were unconscious. They didn't remember much about what happened after that.

Logically speaking, drinking a couple more glasses of wine shouldn't be a big deal for them, and they definitely shouldn't have gotten that drunk. This is really strange.

But before they could think any further, they heard news that shattered their hearts—

Surprisingly, the people they arranged didn't run into Fu Jinnan and Qi Ning, but instead ran into Fu Shiyi and his group.

Of course, Fu Desheng and his wife didn't care about how the Qi family of three was doing; what they really cared about was their son.

Even though Fu Shiyi was rebellious when he was young and refused to listen to them when he grew up, insisting on marrying Qi Ruo, he was still their biological son.

Upon hearing this news, Fu Desheng and his wife, who had been in a daze and half-drunk, instantly became completely sober.

They rushed to the hospital immediately.

When the old man saw them, he asked them impatiently, "So you two still know how to come?"

Fu Desheng and his wife didn't care about anything else. They glanced at Fu Jinnan and Qi Ning standing to the side and saw that they were standing there unharmed, which made them secretly resentful.

Originally, it should have been the two of them who were being resuscitated in the operating room, not Fu Shiyi!

Immediately afterwards, Fu Desheng inquired about Fu Shiyi's situation.

"Dad, don't get angry yet. Tell us quickly how Shiyi is doing?"

"Yes, Mom and Dad, how is Shi Yi?" Wu Lixia asked anxiously.

The old man flicked his sleeves and sat down in the chair.

Fu Jinnan, who was standing nearby, said, "Brother and sister-in-law, Shi Yi and the others are still in the emergency room being treated."

"Still in the emergency room? How long have you been in there? Why haven't you come out yet?" Wu Lixia asked again.

Qi Ning said, "The doctor said the situation is quite serious, and I'm afraid I won't be able to come out so soon."

"serious……"

Upon hearing those two words, Wu Lixia immediately burst into tears.

"Son, you absolutely mustn't get hurt..."

Fu Desheng was also pale.

The old man tapped the table: "Alright, stop crying."

Wu Lixia's crying stopped abruptly.

The old lady also said, "Please sit down first. No news is good news. Standing there is making my eyes hurt."

How could Fu Desheng and his wife sit still?

Fu Desheng recalled that Fu Shiyi and his group had been in Fu Jinnan's car, which was why they were mistakenly injured, and felt a surge of hatred in his heart.

He couldn't help but regret not telling Fu Shiyi about the plan beforehand. If he had known, he definitely wouldn't have gotten into Fu Jinnan's car, and the car accident wouldn't have happened.

Why would Fu Shiyi get into Fu Jinnan's car out of the blue?

Could it be... could it be that Fu Jinnan and his group knew something beforehand and deliberately wanted to harm Fu Shiyi?

Thinking of this, Fu Desheng questioned Fu Jinnan and Qi Ning: "Why is Shi Yi riding in your car?"

Upon hearing this, Wu Lixia excitedly asked, "That's right, how could he have gotten into your car? If he hadn't gotten into your car, Shi Yi wouldn't have been hit by the car."

Qi Ning and Fu Jinnan found this amusing, but they didn't laugh out loud.

Qi Ning was too lazy to talk and picked up the cup next to her to drink water.

Fu Jinnan countered, "Brother and sister-in-law, we didn't have enough cars at the time, so I had Shi Yi's driver take Mom and Dad home first and then gave them our car. It was that simple. We had no idea that something like this would happen."

"The way you're talking makes it sound like Shi Yi and the others got into a car accident because they were in our car?"

Upon hearing Fu Jinnan's words, Fu Desheng and Wu Lixia realized that they had almost let something slip in their haste.

Wu Lixia immediately shut her mouth.

Fu Desheng's eyes flickered as he said, "I...we certainly didn't mean that. I was just wondering why they would be riding in your car. Now that you've explained it, that's good."

Qi Ning put down her cup before speaking: "Brother and sister-in-law, the problem shouldn't be with our car, but with the truck that caused the accident."

“We reviewed the surveillance footage from the scene, and the truck’s movement was suspicious. This accident doesn’t seem like an accident.”

"Whether it was an accident or something else, we will definitely find out. You should also investigate in this direction."

"Yes."

The old man instructed Fu Desheng, "Desheng, this matter must be investigated as soon as possible! Investigate it thoroughly!"
