Sober and beautiful, my husband and son begged for my forgiveness on their knees.

Several minutes later, Ning Yao regained her senses.

Just then, someone started banging on her car window.

As soon as she rolled down the car window, she heard people outside anxiously asking for help.

"Please help me, my passenger is injured, and I can't get him out of the car by myself..."

The other person was wearing a taxi driver's uniform, and had a cut on his forehead that was bleeding.

Ning Yao immediately unbuckled her seatbelt, got out of the car, and followed him.

Upon seeing the true extent of the car accident, she couldn't help but gasp.

The rear of her car was visibly dented, the taillights were shattered, and glass shards were scattered around.

The taxi's front end was severely deformed and pinned down by a utility pole. The severed power line was still sparking, looking extremely dangerous.

"The passenger is in the back seat, his head is covered in blood, and he's unconscious. We have to get him out as soon as possible, or it will be a real problem."

Ning Yao also noticed that the guest's injuries were quite serious, and immediately helped to treat them.

It took the two of them a long time to rescue the person. Ning Yao noticed that the person was injured in the head, so she directly tore off the silk scarf from her neck and pressed it on the head.

The guest, who had been unconscious, opened his eyes and glanced at the person in front of him in a daze.

Ning Yao thought he had woken up and was about to speak when he fell into a coma again.

Soon, the three of them were put into an ambulance.

After a thorough examination, Ning Yao's injuries were the least severe; apart from some small cuts on her hands from saving people, she had no external injuries.

After giving her statement to the traffic police, she learned that the reason she was in a car accident was because the taxi driver had to slow down suddenly to avoid a motorcyclist driving in the wrong direction, causing the vehicle to lose control, rear-end her, and then crash into a utility pole.

Although she had suffered an undeserved misfortune, Ning Yao did not pursue the driver's responsibility. After signing her statement, she left the hospital.

The car accident was even reported on the evening news.

Lu Jingmo looked up at the news, just as the camera flashed by.

That figure looks a bit like Ning Yao.

But he didn't think about it in detail.

Lu Mingjin, however, was frightened by the car accident scene and quickly reminded him, "Dad, you must be careful when you drive."

Lu Jingmo was momentarily dazed upon hearing his words.

Ning Yao used to remind him like this every day, but she stopped saying it at some point.

"Mingjin, why don't you like your mother?"

Lu Mingjin didn't know why her father brought up that woman. She gripped the spoon tightly, and her eyes immediately reddened.

"Dad, Mom often bullies me when you're not around. I really don't like her, and yesterday she even kidnapped me. I hate her now!"

Lu Jingmo recalled how Ning Yao had played mind games with him yesterday, and his eyes darkened. "From now on, she will never be able to bully you again."

Lu Mingjin smiled, but then, as if remembering something, she added, "Dad, can I invite Auntie over tonight? She's a great storyteller, and I love listening to her stories."

Lu Jingmo's dark eyes fell on him, and he said in a deep voice, "Mingjin, you are already five years old. You should understand that your aunt is just your aunt and can't replace your mother. If you want to hear a story, have the servants in the house read it to you."

"Also, don't tell anyone about my divorce from your mother."

Lu Mingjin could tell that her father was unhappy, so she quickly nodded obediently.

"Oh, right, Dad, there's a speech event at our kindergarten tomorrow, and the teacher said we all have to wear the little suits that the kindergarten makes."

Lu Jingmo immediately instructed the butler to go find it.

The butler, who had only recently arrived, instinctively asked, "Young Master, may I ask what the young master's suit looks like? I'll go look for it in the dressing room."

Lu Jingmo reflexively said, "For such a trivial matter, you should ask..."

He realized something was wrong just as he was about to utter the name Ning Yao.

His face immediately turned ugly.

"Find it yourself. If you're unsure, contact Mingjin's teacher."

Seeing his anger, Lu Mingjin and the butler didn't dare to utter a sound.

Once back in her bedroom, Lu Mingjin remembered that she still needed to call her aunt back, so she quickly dialed the number.

Soon, Ning Yan's gentle voice came through.

"Mingjin, has your father already arranged a car to pick me up?"

Lu Mingjin was in a dilemma. After stammering for a while, she said, "I'm sorry, Auntie. Dad didn't agree to my request. I can only ask you to come another time."

Ning Yan was silent for a moment before whispering, "Fine, since neither you nor your son welcome me, I won't come over anymore, lest your mother go around saying I broke up her family..."

"No!" Lu Mingjin sensed her aunt's distress and quickly said, "Dad is upset because he's divorced from Mom, that's why he's refusing."

After he finished speaking, he realized he had let something slip and quickly covered his mouth.

But Ning Yan on the other end had already heard what he said clearly.

The smile that had just disappeared returned to the corners of her mouth.

Her chance finally came.

……

These past few days, Ning Yao has been extremely busy, but she has finally finished dealing with the company's affairs.

She also hired two young designers whose design style and values ​​were similar to hers to help her handle the backlog of orders.

"Sister Yaoyao, I have reorganized the online orders. Except for the orders that the customers specifically asked you to design, An'an and I have split the rest."

Ning Yao received the orders assigned by Xiao Xiao and nodded in satisfaction, "Very reasonable, very well assigned."

Xiao Xiao smiled happily, but then her smile faded a little as she thought of something. She added, "But Sister Yao Yao, An An just refreshed the backend again, and there are still no new orders coming in. But don't worry too much, I still have some clients on hand, I'll contact them again at the end of the month."

Wen An also said, "I have some too. Once I've processed most of my current orders, I'll help you make some connections."

Hearing their words, Ning Yao felt a warm current surge in her heart.

Although she suffered a major setback with her husband and son, she gained two partners in her career who were willing to stand by her side through thick and thin.

Heaven wasn't too unkind to her.

"Don't worry, the reason there are no orders online is because I've temporarily stopped taking orders."

Xiao Xiao and Wen An were both puzzled. "Why?"

Ning Yao took out the invitation letter from Xingyi Group.

This was the compensation agreement she reached privately with Xingyi Group.

"Because I plan to meet with a big client tomorrow night, and then I'll focus on offline business."

Xiao Xiao and Wen An both knew that she was the first place winner in the Xingyi Group design competition, but they did not expect that she would receive an invitation to the Xingyi Gala.

"Sister Yaoyao, this party is specially organized by Xingyi Group for VIP clients. If we can secure two big clients at the banquet, even if we don't make any new orders next month, or even if we don't make any new orders for the rest of the year, it will be enough for us to live on."

"Yes, I also heard that the national film queen Jiang Tian was invited to this gala. Her new movie has been nominated for the Golden Harvest Award for Best Actress. She's attending the gala to find a designer she'll like to design a dress for her. Sister Yaoyao, you wouldn't...

Ning Yao smiled and nodded, "Yes, I went for her."

In her past life, she gave her spot to Ning Yan, who then met Jiang Tian at the banquet and got the opportunity to design an award ceremony dress for her. After the awards ceremony, Jiang Tian became famous overnight.

But in this life she made a different choice.

Therefore, she must win over Jiang Tian!
