Chapter 383: 250 overtaking and cutting off others on the road, terrifying like a devil (Three updates)
At the hospital, Jiang Jinsang had just called home to report his safety when Zhou Zhongqing knocked on the door and entered, bringing a kettle of hot water and fetching a washbasin and towels for him, "Hereās some hot water for you folks, clean yourself up a bit, look at you!"
It was the first time he had seen Jiang Jinsang in such a disheveled state.
"Thank you, Uncle Zhou."
"Why be so polite to me? Sheās fine, donāt worry too much, at worst she just bumped her head, she might have a mild concussion."
A concussion, and thatās considered fine?
"She must have been pretty scared too, her nails are broken." Zhou Zhongqing looked at Tang Wanās fingers, which were bandaged and clean now, but when she had arrived, her nails were wrapped in blood-stained water, a shocking sight, probably from sliding down the mountain while trying to hold on to something.
"I know."
"By the way, whereās Chengsi? I just saw him at the door, how come he disappeared in the blink of an eye? Didnāt you tell me earlier that he had hurt his back? I wanted to check on him."
"Heās not here?" Jiang Jinsang furrowed his brow but just as he was about to speak, his phone vibratedāa call from Qi Zeyan, "Sorry, I have to take this call."
He walked over to the window with his phone, lowering his voice, "Helloā"
"Is your sister-in-law alright? I couldnāt get through to your phone earlier, and Iām almost there."
"Where are you now?"
"In the mountains."
"Iām at the hospital."
"You..." Qi Zeyan had driven from the downtown area, during the midday rush, stopping and going, and it had been no small effort to get there, only to be told the person was in the hospital, "Goddamn it, Iām almost there."
"Wanwan," Ruan Mengxi, sitting in the passenger seat, hinted in a low voice.
"Is your sister-in-law okay?"
"Sheās fine."
"Sheās fine and you go to the hospital? Give me the address, Iāll be there immediately." Qi Zeyan had nearly reached the foot of the mountain, but now he had to turn back. Knowing that Tang Wan was actually in the hospital, Ruan Mengxi naturally grew anxious, saying hardly a word all the way.
While passing through a villa area, Qi Zeyan suddenly spoke up, "You see that house over there?"
"Yeah."
"I had my heart set on this piece of land, but in the end, that bastard Jiang Yanting pulled a fast one on me. I had made full preparations, guarded against every possibility, but to be outplayed by oneās own brother in the endāI confronted him, and he said thereās no father and son in business, let alone brothers, itās utterly shameless."
Qi Zeyan said all this merely to divert her attention.
"This villa area is quite large."
"Yeah, Jiang Chengsiās family lives around here."
Jiang Chengsi? Ruan Mengxi felt puzzled as various fanfictions she had been reading lately popped into her head, almost feeling like she had joined a cult, excited as a shipper at the mention of the name of "Fourth Master Jiang."
"That boss..."
"What?"
"Your relationship with Fourth Master... What is it exactly?"
Qi Zeyan, who was driving, glanced at her from the corner of his eye. Upon seeing that look in her eyes, he nearly exploded, "Ruan Mengxi, stop thinking those filthy thoughts immediately, and if your mind wanders to that kind of nonsense again, Iāll kick you out of the car this instant!"

Meanwhile, Jiang Chengsi drove out from his house, going from there to the airport, which meant crossing the downtown areaāonly one route was possible. While driving, he tried calling Jiang Shuyan.
The call connected but was immediately hung up!
That damn girl.
He was a car enthusiast; naturally, his driving skills were exceptional. The Jiang family car, specially modified for Jiang Jinsangās use, performed extremely well. Even at high speed, the car remained stable. Jiang Shuyan hadnāt gone far, and soon her car appeared in his sight.
He immediately pressed the horn.
Jiang Shuyan, looking through the rearview mirror, saw the car behind her belonged to Jiang Jinsang. Startled as if a malevolent spirit were chasing her, she instantly slammed on the gas pedal.
The car instantly accelerated, speeding away!
Jiang Chengsiās fingers tightened around the steering wheel, never having thought that one day he would use his driving skills in this manner.
Lightly pressing the gas pedal, he steadily accelerated, closely pursuing Jiang Shuyanās car.
As the distance between the two cars shrank, Jiang Shuyan became frantic, her scalp tingling. She had never driven at such a speed before; her palms were already sweating, and it felt like she couldnāt even hold the steering wheel properly.
The car belonged to Jiang Zhaolin, and it had not been modified. At a certain speed, the car started reminding her to drive safely, and with the sudden acceleration, along with her trembling heart and hands, the car became highly unstable.
The faster the speed, the more control was needed over the steering wheel, yet the car behind continued its relentless chase, getting closer and closer...
Jiang Shuyan panicked until the two cars drove side by side. The window of the other car rolled down, and to her astonishment, it was Jiang Chengsi!
"Jiang Shuyan, stop the car!"
With a menacing gaze and a voice filled with fury, Jiang Shuyan was so startled that her hand shook, barely managing to hold onto the steering wheel.
