Chapter 23 (1/2)
The cellphone continued to be static for another half a minute before a low male voice was heard.
”Noth-nothing. Only a small mishap happened......”
He can actually still talk.
Su Zui felt his ice cold hands slowly became a bit warmer.
”You are still trying to act strong right now?!” He coldy interrupted Fu s.h.i.+jun's sentence. He fired questions at him one after the other: ”Did you have a car accident? Did you call the police? Can you still move? Hurry up and get out of the car!”
Knowing that Fu s.h.i.+jun was temporarily not in danger and that the doctor was quickly arriving, Su Zui turned on his car and drove towards the hospital.
He let the system hack into the nearby traffic light systems and plan the shortest route, where the whole route had no traffic nor red light.
The call continued to be maintained. The voice from the other side transmitted in broken parts.
The ambulance's siren was heard beside the man's heavy breathing. It was a messy scene, but it still gave people a sense of peace.
Fu s.h.i.+jun knew he was driving so he didn't speak when he didn't need to. It was only until his cellphone was quickly running out of battery that he quietly said: ”I arrived at the hospital. I am really fine. You don't have to worry too much.”
Su Zui heard him pretending to be strong and can't help but became angry: ”Shut up! I will use my own eyes to see whether you are okay or not!”
Fu s.h.i.+jun was scolded and didn't dare to talk back. After a moment, he said in a hoa.r.s.e voice: ”......Ok. You can come and see. Don't be angry. My cellphone is quickly running out of battery. Be careful while driving. Don't get distracted.”
Su Zui: ”En. I know.”
While he was dissatisfied at the always dishonest boss, but he still listened to him and lowered the driving speed of the car by a bit.
But even like this, throughout the whole trip, he still drove right under the speed limit and made the business version of the Maybach drive look like a racing car.
The distance between the Qin Family and the hospital was a bit far. By the time he arrived at the hospital, an hour has already pa.s.sed.
Fu s.h.i.+jun had already entered the surgery room. There were only worried Fu Family members waiting outside.
Seeing him arrive, Fu s.h.i.+jing's expression became complicated.
His little brother went out to find him to repent only to get into a car accident.
But he knows that this matter cannot be blamed on Su Zui. Even when his little brother was about to enter the surgery room, he was still looking at his cellphone like he was using his cellphone to subst.i.tute for another person.
He became focused and voluntarily explained to Su Zui: ”How come you came? Don't worry. s.h.i.+jun's injuries isn't big. The only injury was on his arm. Everywhere else was fine.”
Fu s.h.i.+jing hesitated a moment but didn't persuade Su Zui to leave: ”You should sit down and the side and wait. The surgery still needs a couple more hours.”
Su Zui shook his head: ”There's no need.”
Grandfather Fu, who was being supported by the people of the Fu Family on one side, was a bit absentminded. He waited for Su Zui and Fu s.h.i.+jing to finish talking before slowly said: ”Xiao Zui also came? Be good. Don't wait with us. It's too much of a waste of time.”
Su Zui pursed his lips and bluntly said: ”Uncle was coming to meet me when he ran into this car accident. I'll also wait.”
Grandfather Fu was startled for a moment.
Fu s.h.i.+jun hadn't said anything, making him clueless about this matter.
But he wasn't an unreasonable person. After he snapped out of it, he gently told Su Zui that he wasn't responsible before sitting down to rest with an exhausted face.
Being an elder and seeing his son covered in blood when he entered the surgery room, he really couldn't hold on anymore.
After two hours, Fu s.h.i.+jun was finally pushed out of the surgery room.
The doctor took off his mask: ”Everything went smoothly. If there isn't any problems within the observation period, then his condition has basically stabilized.”
With their hearts full of joy, the members of the Fu Family surrounded Fu s.h.i.+jun to talk to him.
Su Zui stood at the back and waited for the gurney to reach him before raising his eyes to take a look.
The man laying on the bed had a deathly pale face and his face and neck have small cuts from gla.s.s fragments. His right arm was tightly covered with a thick cast, not allowing people to see its condition.
Maybe it was because the anesthesia haven't exited his system, but Fu s.h.i.+jun's eyes were drooping as if he didn't have any energy.
Laying on the snow white bed sheets, he had a rare fragile look.
His face color didn't look good, but his pair of black eyes flashed with light. When he saw Su Zui, he arduously raised his non-injured arm.
Su Zui subconsciously extended his own hand forward.
Fu s.h.i.+jun hooked his fingertips and said a few words in a light but uncertain tone: ”......I am really ok. I'm not lying.”
The man that just got out of surgery actually didn't have any strength. If Su Zui used just a bit of force, he can extract his fingertips from the ice cold hand.
But Su Zui hesitated a moment. Ultimately, he didn't make any movement.
He narrowed his eyes and splashed cold water onto Fu s.h.i.+jun: ”Wait until the observation period is over before saying you are fine.”
Fu s.h.i.+jun unhesitatingly changed his words: ”......I'll listen to you.”
A few of the Fu Family members on the side looked at the pair caring for each other under a cold atmosphere and constantly felt that there was something weird with the scene.
Especially Fu s.h.i.+jing. When he saw the two hold hands, his eyes became crisscrossed.
Did this count as experiencing a fortune from a misfortune for his little brother?
He peeked at the fragile looking Fu s.h.i.+jun and constantly felt that this person had already secretly blast off fireworks in his heart......
Because Fu s.h.i.+jun needed to enter the patient room, Su Zui and Fu s.h.i.+jun held hands for a while before separating.
Because a family member had just escaped danger, the Fu Family didn't have time to think about any messy stuff. While they had felt that Su Zui and Fu s.h.i.+jun's relations.h.i.+p was a bit better than normal, but they didn't think too deeply about it.
Even Grandfather Fu, who was originally especially sensitive toward this matter, also missed out. He held Fu s.h.i.+jing and contentedly sighed: ”Xiao Zui is a good child. The responsibility of this matter originally didn't need to be pushed towards him. He was already so busy everyday but he is still so mindful. Our Fu Family needs to remember this friends.h.i.+p.”
”......”
Fu s.h.i.+jing, who only knows a bit of the truth, sank into a deep silence.
Okay. Friends.h.i.+p.
————————
Fu s.h.i.+jun's car accident wasn't an accident.
While he had a fault for driving without focus, but the main reason was still because a truck illegally made a lane change.
According to Fu s.h.i.+jun's oral confession to the police later, the condition at that time was especially perilous.
If it wasn't for Fu s.h.i.+jun immediately dodging, then the arm won't be the only thing that was injured.
Su Zui heard about this detail and his face completely became cold.
In the original plot, Fu s.h.i.+jun's car accident was caused by a truck illegally made a lane change.
It was exactly the same without a single change.
It was only that the Fu s.h.i.+jun in the original story wasn't as lucky as now. Both of his legs were crushed and unhealable, causing him to sit in a wheelchair for the rest of his life.
