No reconciliation, no forgiveness! Mr. Pei leaves with nothing.

In the shady courtyard of the building, a servant brought out several plates of Chinese pastries and some desserts, saying, "I thought you probably hadn't eaten much on your way here, so have something to tide you over."

Jiang Hua found it strange. This inexplicable intimacy made her more wary. If someone is being friendly to another person for no reason, there must be an ulterior motive.

Moreover, Jiang Hua usually doesn't have the opportunity to meet people like Madam Bai. Perhaps because of the unfamiliar environment, Jiang Hua felt somewhat out of place. She was simply unwilling to cater to others, which is why she didn't socialize or interact with people from the upper class.

“My daughter is getting engaged soon. After the engagement is over, I’m going back to France to settle down with them. I bought a villa there and I’m looking for some furniture. I’m overwhelmed by all the options in these catalogs, so I thought of you. You can help me pick something out.”

It was three hours later when we finished making our selections.

Mrs. Bai: "Thank you for your trouble. I'm making you do these trivial things with me. You can have dinner with me, and then I'll have the driver take you back to school."

Jiang Hua accompanied her back to the lobby. "It's just a small matter. I... don't need to stay. I still have an exam to take back at school."

Mrs. Bai said, "Oh, I see. I hope it won't interfere with your exam. I should have asked you to come over next time."

Jiang Hua smiled faintly, "No."

"That's good. I wish you good luck on your exam."

However, at that moment, a servant came over and reported, "Madam, there is a gentleman outside looking for Miss Jiang."

As soon as she finished speaking, a figure walked over from not far away, and Jiang Hua frowned.

Little did she know that Madam Bai, who was observing Jiang Hua, had seen all the undisguised expressions on her face and a playful smile appeared on her lips.

Pei Zhan walked over, nodded to Madam Bai, and greeted her, "Madam."

Madam Bai nodded slightly in response, "Since your husband has come to pick you up, I won't disturb you any longer."

In front of Madam Bai, Jiang Hua's expression was relatively restrained. After Madam Bai turned to leave, Jiang Hua ignored Pei Zhan and walked away from him, getting into the car. However, this time she did not sit in the passenger seat, but directly sat in the back passenger seat.

Noticing her movement, Pei Zhan had already taken the initiative and locked the car by pressing the key. When Pei Zhan came over in person, he opened the passenger door for her. "Huahua, I'm not the driver."

"Shut up, you country bumpkin, don't talk to me like that."

Jiang Hua stepped forward, getting closer to him, her eyes icy cold. "You're trying so hard to please me... why don't you go and find Ji Liangchuan for me? Maybe... I'll take another look at you."

Taking advantage of his distraction, Jiang Hua snatched the car keys from his hand, pushed Pei Zhan aside, and got into the driver's seat.

Jiang Hua stepped on the gas and drove away, while Pei Zhan watched the car disappear...

Since the car accident, she has rarely driven, but she is currently driving fairly steadily.

After the car exited the elevated highway, Jiang Hua's mind suddenly became chaotic, her heart pounded uncontrollably, as if it were about to leap out of her chest. Images flashed through her mind: collisions, dizziness, fire, children, blood…

In the car ahead, Song Qingran looked at her perfectly ironed white dress and her neatly trimmed hair, which was long, black, and shiny and fell straight over her shoulders. "Xiang Nan! Drive slowly. A-Xu gets carsick. If you drive too fast, she'll get carsick."

Zuo Xiangnan: "Yes, madam."

Song Qingran smiled faintly and held Zhou's mother's hand in return. It seemed that her aunt's illness had relapsed, and she was starting to mistake her for that person named Zhou Xu, the Xu she was referring to. "Auntie... no, Mom... I'm fine..."

When Song Qingran returned from the mental hospital last time, she learned that Aunt Du's illness was caused by her inability to cope with the death of her daughter, which led to her mental breakdown. Her sister said that she mistook her for Aunt Du's deceased daughter because Aunt Du looked somewhat similar to her.

Song Qingran had seen the photo that Aunt Du always carried with her. It was of a girl with a very clean and sweet appearance. Perhaps it was just a coincidence, but even she herself felt that the girl in the photo, who looked only thirteen or fourteen years old, resembled her when she was a child...

There are many cases in this world where people are not related by blood but look alike, so Song Qingran didn't think too much about it.

In that moment of confusion, by the time Jiang Hua came to her senses, it was already too late.

"You've finally acknowledged your mother, Ah-Xu... Mom knew you weren't dead, you've always been by Mom's side, haven't you!"

The moment the words left his mouth, a sudden, weightless force interrupted Zhou's mother's voice. Zuo Xiangnan watched helplessly as the car behind his own crashed into him. Before he could even see the license plate, his car was already sent flying. Zuo Xiangnan, wearing his seatbelt, avoided the vehicle in front of him and crashed straight into the guardrail, sliding more than ten meters away. Half of the Rolls-Royce's body was also damaged.

'Bang…'

Jiang Hua wasn't wearing a seatbelt, and her forehead slammed hard against the steering wheel, causing her to lose consciousness.

The ambulance arrived quickly within ten minutes.

Jiang Hua lay on the mobile gurney, and in her drowsy state, she saw many people...

Is she... going to die again?

But... she still had many things she hadn't had time to do, things her mother wanted to accomplish before she died.

Two lifetimes... and she still couldn't satisfy her father.

She failed to prove to Pei Zhan that even without the Jiang family, she could still live a self-reliant life.

"Huahua... Huahua... Don't be afraid, Daddy's here... Daddy won't let anything happen to you."

"Doctor, save her, save my daughter..."

After a brief moment of consciousness, Jiang Hua fell into a coma again.

Wang Qi: "Sir, please take care of yourself. Miss is a lucky person, she will be alright."

Jiang Weiguo: "Call Pei Zhan and ask him why Jiang Hua got into that car, and why she... had a car accident."

"Investigate! Investigate everything thoroughly!"

"Cough cough cough..." Jiang Weiguo, overcome with emotion, began coughing again, and suddenly spat out a mouthful of blood, "Pfft..."

Bright red blood was spilled on the hospital's snow-white tiled floor.

Jiang Weiguo closed his eyes and fell into a coma without warning.

When Pei Zhan arrived at the hospital, only Zuo Xiangnan was injured in the ward. His hand was fractured, and his leg... was also injured, but fortunately, they were all minor injuries. "What exactly happened?"

Zuo Xiangnan: "A car crashed into me at the time, but luckily I reacted in time and stepped on the brakes, so it didn't cause a rear-end collision."

"The traffic police are currently investigating the person who caused the rear-end collision."

Pei Zhan glanced at Song Qingran beside him. Meeting the man's deep, worried, and angry gaze, she lowered her head, somewhat at a loss.

"The lady was hit and has temporarily lost consciousness, but she has just finished a check-up and is fine."

"Ms. Song was wearing a seatbelt at the time and was not injured."

Pei Zhan's eyes became more serious. "Take good care of yourself in the hospital. I will cover all the expenses."

Zuo Xiangnan: "Thank you, President Pei."

Shortly afterward, people from the traffic management department arrived at the hospital.

Outside the hospital corridor, the other party showed him the video in their hand, "Mr. Pei, the investigation results are just in. The person who caused this accident is none other than your wife, Jiang Hua..."
