She went to the wrong table on a blind date and ended up getting married to a billionaire CEO.

When Gu Tingyu rushed across the street, Su Maiqi was still in a daze, holding her phone, frozen in place.

If she hadn't stopped to answer the phone, would I be the one lying in a pool of blood?

My mother just passed away not long ago, and my sister got divorced and is raising a child on her own. What will happen to my sister if she is gone? And what about Duoduo, who is still so young?

Also, that person's head was hit like that, how much pain must it have been in? They've never done anything to wrong anyone in their life, they can't die with such an ugly, incomplete body...

Gu Tingyu rushed over and immediately circled around Su Maiqi to check if she was injured; once he confirmed she was alright, he pulled her into his arms.

She gently patted his back and said, "It's alright, it's alright."

Su Maiqi seemed to have just come to her senses and hugged Gu Tingyu tightly around the waist.

It was like a frightened child seeing their parents.

The shock of the car accident hadn't subsided; she was still shaken, her heart pounding wildly.

Gu Tingyu sensed her fear and pulled her closer into his arms.

Traffic police officers on duty nearby have arrived at the scene and called 120 (emergency services).

Two or three passersby gathered around, wanting to help with CPR, but they found the person was already dead.

Some parents covered their children's eyes and held them in their arms, gently comforting them.

A chorus of sighs filled the air; life is so unpredictable.

Gu Tingyu gently patted Su Maiqi's back to comfort her while glancing at the driver and vehicle that caused the accident.

A red pickup truck.

The driver looked to be in his forties, tanned dark, like an experienced driver. Logically, he shouldn't have made such a basic mistake.

This is not an intersection or a sharp bend, and it is not an accident-prone area.

He quietly memorized the license plate number.

Just then, Su Maiqi's phone rang again.

She trembled involuntarily, as if suddenly startled.

Gu Tingyu took her phone and pressed the answer button. It was Su Mailou's anxious voice on the other end: "Qiqi, what happened just now? Duoduo said it was very loud on the other end, but no one was talking. Then the call was disconnected."

"Sister, this is Gu Tingyu. Qiqi is alright, don't worry. There was a car accident here, we'll go back right away."

When Su Mairou heard Gu Tingyu say that Qiqi was alright, she breathed a sigh of relief. But when she heard about the car accident, she became inexplicably nervous again.

"There was a car accident? Is Qiqi really okay? Let her answer the phone." If she's okay, why isn't she answering the phone? Is Gu Tingyu lying to comfort me?

In an instant, all sorts of terrible thoughts rushed to her mind, and her voice trembled slightly.

"Qiqi is really okay, she's just a little frightened. I'll give her the phone now."

After comforting his sister, Gu Tingyu gently said to Su Maiqi, "Qiqi, your sister was worried about you and called. Answer the phone first."

Su Maiqi finally came to her senses, picked up her phone and said, "Sister, I'm fine. Luckily, Duoduo called me just now, and I stopped to answer the phone, which allowed me to avoid it. Let's go back now."

The accident scene has been cordoned off by police.

Gu Tingyu took Su Maiqi's hand, walked around to the other side of the road, helped her into the car, and drove back.

As soon as I arrived at the entrance of the residential area, I saw Su Mailou holding Duoduo's hand, waiting anxiously by the roadside.

Su Maiqi said, "I'll get out of the car and walk over with them. You go back and park your car first."

As soon as she got out of the car, her sister pulled her over for another 360-degree check-up. Even after confirming there were no external injuries, she was still worried.

"Qiqi, are you feeling unwell anywhere? Were you bumped or something? Maybe we should go to the hospital for a checkup. Sometimes, you can't even see it with your eyes."

It took about ten minutes to drive here from the company. Gu Tingyu played soothing music along the way, and she looked at the scenery outside the window, gradually recovering.

Seeing her sister's expression, she knew her sister was terrified.

She quickly explained, "Sister, I'm fine. The car didn't hit me. I was just suddenly startled."

I was originally the first one standing at the intersection. My phone rang, so I stopped to answer it. The woman behind me rushed forward and got hit.

Then she bent down and picked up Duoduo: "Duoduo is really my lucky star. Your call came at just the right time, it saved my life."

Duoduo cupped Sumaiqi's face in her hands: "Auntie is the best. Duoduo can't bear to part with Auntie. Auntie can't die."

Su Mairou came over and hugged her younger sister, tears welling up in her eyes: "Yes, Qiqi is such a good person, it's heartbreaking that God didn't take her away. I can't bear to part with her."

The three people walked hand in hand towards the villa area.

Su Mairou wasn't too surprised. Her brother-in-law had an extraordinary demeanor, and his secretary had been handling many things at home lately.

Although my brother-in-law is always quite low-key when we meet, he only said he was Su Maiqi's colleague when he first came to meet my mother.

But Su Mairou felt he wasn't an ordinary person. It was quite normal for him to be able to afford a villa.

In her sister's eyes, Su Maiqi was undoubtedly outstanding, and standing next to Gu Tingyu, they were a handsome couple, quite well-matched. But she still had some worries.

The sisters lost their father a long time ago, and now their mother has passed away as well.

I am my sister's only relative, and I am a divorced woman with a child. I can't help my sister at all, and I am a burden instead.

My brother-in-law seems to care a lot about my sister. He's been busy dealing with many things since our mother passed away, and he also comforts people.

They had just settled into the house and soon invited me over for a meal; after all, I was staying in their house.

But what about his family?

The two of them got their marriage certificate, but neither of them came forward to discuss the wedding arrangements.

Although the mother-in-law had come to the funeral for the mother's passing, it could be considered that she had approved of the marriage.

But marriage is a big deal, especially for wealthy families who are very particular about it. Could it be that they don't want to have a wedding ceremony or make it public because they dislike their sister?

She'd heard that the wealthier a family was, the more troubles they had, and she was quite worried that her younger sister would be mistreated.

Unable to resist, she pulled her younger sister aside and asked, "Qiqi, when are you planning to have your wedding?"

Su Maiqi knew what her sister was thinking, of course. "Sister, you know me, I don't like those formalities of weddings. If we have a wedding, there are quite a few of their relatives. Wearing high heels and dresses, I have to entertain a bunch of unfamiliar people. Just thinking about it gives me a headache."

I told Tingyu that my mother had just passed away and I wasn't in the mood for a wedding. He was quite supportive. His uncles and aunts, however, kept egging me on, saying that since it was the first grandchild of the Gu family to get married, it had to be a big celebration. Grandpa dotes on Tingyu, and ultimately agreed that we wouldn't have a wedding.

Su Mairou wasn't surprised; her younger sister had always been unconventional and genuinely disliked wedding formalities. But she was still a little worried: "If you don't have a wedding, what will your in-laws think?"

The elders probably want things to be lively. Gu Tingyu has an uncle and aunt, and his grandfather is also there, so the family relationships are quite complicated. If Gu Tingyu protects his sister, will he offend his mother-in-law instead?

Su Mailou still vividly remembers the negative impact a poor mother-in-law/daughter-in-law relationship can have on a marriage.

He didn't want his sister to follow in his footsteps.
