I can't believe such half-truths, and I also think that if it were true, Xiao Minxing would definitely say something to me.
The fact that he hasn't said a word until now indicates that it's not as Mina said. After all, if it were truly confidential, she wouldn't know about it, so I didn't pay much attention to it from the bottom of my heart.
After walking around the yard, Mina told me her return date to Hong Kong and mentioned that once we handle things here, she would come over early so we could spend a few days there.
I nodded and said, "Sure, Xiao Minxing was planning the same. After you left, he told me that when you get married, we should go over early and take a honeymoon. I didn't expect things to happen here, which made it troublesome for you to come back."
Mina tugged at my hand and said, "Don't be so polite with me. But you two have a child this big; you're like an old married couple. What honeymoon are you talking about?"
When the topic shifted to these matters, it always felt lighter. After all, we still yearned for a free and romantic life; work was just a means of survival.
Mina also asked about Ye Guang's situation and said that Longwen still thought about him after he left.
"Speaking of this, I'm also curious. You mentioned that Longwen caused a scene for him back then. I've always wondered why he acted that way."
When Mina heard my question, she smiled wryly and said, "Actually, he appears cool and indifferent on the surface, but inside he's a particularly passionate person. He's the type who gets sad when he sees injured animals and wants to take them home. Although Ye Guang isn't related to him by blood, when we found him, Longwen was there. He quickly figured out Ye Guang's background. At that time, I didn't understand it either, but later I realized that his actions weren't surprising at all."
"Will he be overly emotional in the future? If he sees someone or an animal in need, will he just throw you aside? After all, you're so impressive."
Mina shot me a glance and said, "Is love the same as sympathy? He's kind-hearted but not foolish."
Alright then, as long as he can distinguish between the two. People must be able to tell apart true good from evil to make effective choices.
The day after meeting Mina, she returned to Hong Kong, and this time I was the only one to see her off.
As we said goodbye at the airport, she mentioned that the next time we meet, it would be when she is a bride.
I really wanted to see that scene, so I promised her that I would arrive early.
However, on the way home that day, something unexpected happened.
Just as I drove out of the bustling streets of Haicheng towards home, a car coming from the opposite direction suddenly changed lanes and headed straight for me in the wrong direction.
Fortunately, I am an experienced driver. When the car turned around, I had already looked to both sides and found a place to dodge.
The car brushed past mine and crashed into the barrier, while I managed to steer back onto my original path after avoiding it.
Although it was thrilling, there were few people on the wide road, and nothing serious happened; at most, I would just get a ticket.
However, before I could even feel relieved, I heard a loud crash behind me.
In the rearview mirror, I saw that the car that had crashed into the barrier was hit head-on by another vehicle traveling in the same direction and was pushed away from its original spot, sliding dozens of meters into the middle of the road.
Several cars passed by; some pulled over to watch, while others had already called the police.
I parked my car by the roadside in a cold sweat. By the time I returned, I could already hear the sound of an ambulance in the distance.
The two cars in front were completely wrecked; the drivers inside probably weren't doing any better. The shattered glass and blood on the ground were a shocking sight.
Someone next to me said, "Female drivers really aren't that great; they have no sense of direction and are driving against traffic on such a wide road."
"Who says otherwise? I don't know what she's thinking. Just look at the driving trajectory; she came over like she was committing suicide from the opposite lane."
...
I followed the gaze of the people toward the car that was supposed to crash into me and could vaguely see a woman inside, but her face was unclear, covered in blood on both her face and hair.
The traffic police and paramedics arrived quickly and isolated us because I was considered one of the witnesses. I stayed behind to cooperate with the police and took a statement.
Then I heard something unbelievable.
The person in that car was none other than Jin Ke.
I could no longer consider this an accident. Jin Ke had attacked me before; even the dullest person could figure out that this time it was intentional. Moreover, the last time I saw her, she was with Xiao Minfeng.
This means that everything happening in our family lately was indeed orchestrated by the Xiao Family.
When Xiao Minxing came to pick me up from the police station, I could barely speak, completely engulfed in fear.
He supported me with his body, and when he saw that I was struggling to walk, he simply bent down and picked me up.
Instead of going home, we first went to the hospital.
The doctor didn't find any other issues; he only said it was excessive shock and advised me to go home and rest more.
Two people returned home. Sister Liu was busy bringing me hot water, while Xiao Minxing kept comforting me, saying it was going to be okay.
He still didn't know that the person Jin Ke wanted to hit was me; even the police thought Jin Ke had suddenly gone crazy, rushing from one side to the other, and I had just been lucky enough to dodge the disaster.
I didn't tell the police that I had a grudge against Jin Ke, but I had to inform Xiao Minxing.
Because although Jin Ke was seriously injured and might die, she was connected to the Xiao Family, and they wouldn't let us off easily.
I grabbed his hand, and while he kept comforting me, I asked, "Can we not go to work tomorrow?"
He immediately nodded and said, "Okay, I'll stay home with you tomorrow."
I nodded as well, trying to maintain my composure as I said, "That person was originally aiming to hit me; I just managed to dodge. She is Jin Ke, and I think she has been following me for a long time. When I took Mina to the airport today, I felt something was off."
Xiao Minxing furrowed his brows and looked at me seriously, asking, "Are you saying that the person driving against traffic was targeting you?"
"Yes. If I had reacted a moment slower, you wouldn't be able to see me now."
He tightened his grip on my hand a little, it hurt but also felt real, which reassured me somewhat.
I looked into his eyes and said, "I saw Jin Ke with Xiao Minfeng before. I don't know if this is related to him, but our family has been facing one incident after another. I'm really scared. You drive to work every day; what if they really come at you with a death wish... what am I supposed to do?"
