Chapter 92
From a distance, they could smell a pungent smell of gas and oil, and the two security guards ran forward to take a look and were instantly stunned that the car was showing signs of being ready to catch fire, and the young lady was still inside the car.
In such a situation, the car is highly likely to explode, and no one with any sense would be foolish enough to run to the rescue.
But right now, Shen Ron was the most irrational one when he saw the car tumbling down a small slope, the pungent gas oil was flowing out and the front of the car was smoking. The only thing he could think of was that Cheng Lydia would die if he didn’t get her out of the driver’s seat as soon as possible.
“Young master, you can’t go!” The security guard, who was calling the police, yanked Shen Ron, who was about to rush down to save him, and pulled him back, saying in an emergency, “The car is likely to explode, it’s dangerous!”
Shen Ron twisted his head to glare at him and ordered in a knot of anger, “Let go!”
“No. … We’ve called the police, let the police handle it.”
“Get out!” Shen Ron swung up and slammed a heavy fist into his opponent’s face, finally free.
He practically stumbled to the side of the car, and it took him a lot of effort to pull the driver’s door open as the car was crushed out of shape.
Inside the carriage, Cheng Lydia is squeezed and blood is TobyToby dripping continuously from her forehead.
The two security guards who were watching were not good enough to remain bystanders, as they did, and joined the rescue effort, working with Shen Ron to get the injured Cheng Lydia out of the carriage.
Moving Cheng Lydia to a safe position, Shen Ron removes the silk scarf from around her neck and compresses the wound on her forehead for her.
He lifted his head in anger and yelled at the two security guards, “What are you still doing? Go drive!”
“Young master, I’ve called an ambulance.” One of the security guards said.
Soon, the ambulance arrived and Shen Ron helped the paramedics get Cheng Lydia into the ambulance and followed it to the hospital.
After the ambulance left in a hurry, one of the security guards said to the other, “Let’s go back and move the fire extinguisher to prevent the car from burning up.”This belongs to NôvelDrama.Org - ©.
The two men headed in the direction of the mansion, and the security guard walking behind them took a look at the one in front of him and secretly lit the pre-prepared alcohol ball under the front cover of the car while he was not looking.
When the emergency doctor came out of the emergency room and told Shen RonCheng Lydia’s injuries weren’t too serious, Shen Ron’s heart, which had been hanging in the air, finally fell.
After he sighed in relief, he was busy pulling the doctor back and asking after him, “And how exactly is she hurt?”
The doctor said with a smile, “Don’t worry, there’s a moderate concussion in the head, plus four stitches, and a cut on the left leg and a displaced kneecap, these aren’t life-threatening injuries, they’ll heal after treatment.”
“Thank you doctor.” Shen Ron was relieved but still frowned from it, it sounded like it hurt, Cheng Lydia must not be able to tolerate it.
Ten minutes later, Cheng Lydia was wheeled out of the emergency room and transferred to the general ward.
She was still unconscious, the wounds on her forehead and leg were treated and the doctor said she would wake up soon.
Gazing at her frowning even as she drifted off to sleep, Shen Ron was a little distressed and murmured in his heart, Fortunately, you are fine, otherwise …
What else would he do? Pained? Upset for the rest of his life? Or will he die of grief?
Could it possibly be the latter? He did not know.
He took a light breath and dragged a chair to sit down in front of her hospital bed, watching over her as she woke up.
The phone rang and it was Assistant Peng, Shen Ron went to the balcony to answer it. assistant Peng told him that the car had been burnt and would be sent to the vehicle identification centre to determine the cause of the accident when it had cooled down completely.
Shen Ron let out a soft ‘hmm’ and hung up the phone.
He was also puzzled as to why Cheng Lydia had been in the accident, as Cheng Lydia had always been a more careful and calm person.
Of course, he would never have guessed that the car was vandalized in any way.
Inside the fire escape on the top floor of the hospital, Ho Gina mustered up enough courage to dial the familiar number.
The phone rang twice before Ko’s impatient voice came, “How’s it going?”
Ho Gina opened her mouth, unable to spit out the words for a long time.
Cor’s voice became sharp, “You’re not going to tell me that you failed again this time, are you?”
“Yes, Cheng Lydia only has a non-life-threatening injury to her forehead and displaced bone in her left leg.” Ho Gina swallowed unconsciously.
“What the hell?” Corgo was annoyed.
Ho Gina was busy saying, “Ms. Ke, I did what you told me to do, Ah Hai he used to be a gas car mechanic and was particularly familiar with the car’s parts, he told me that he applied lubricant on every brake pad and also dripped gas oil inside the front end of the car. Who knew Cheng Lydia’s life was so great that the car didn’t burn up right from the start.”
The brake pads are coated with lubricant, which can cause brake failure, but only for a short period of time, the lubricant will lose its effect after a long time of baking in the heat. That’s why she had the audacity to do it at The Shen Family mansion by sending Tom away and having someone call Cheng Lydia posing as a hospital, as it were, as soon as Cheng Lydia started the car and hit a downhill section, a long one at that.
She really should have found a more suitable spot for her to collide with another vehicle as soon as she started the car.
“Count on her life!” Ke gritted his teeth.
“It was the youngest who fought to the death to save her.”
“Fighting to the death?” That’s what Cor hated the most, how Shen Ron had fought so hard to help her deflect the brick last time, and this time to get her out of the carriage for her sake.
Cole turned to ask, “Did Ron get suspicious?”
“No, I did everything you told me to do and had Hai burn the car down to just a frame, so I’m sure there will be no trace left, don’t worry.”
“It better be, or you’re the one who dies, not me.”
Ko’s words made Ho Gina’s heart tremble, of course she knew that the one who died would be herself, but it still sent chills down her spine to hear such a cold sentence from Ko.
“I got it, Ms. Ke bye.” She said.
“Wait.” Cor called out to her.
Ho Gina’s heart went cold again and her scalp tingled as she asked, “What else is going on with Ms. Ke?”
Things had come to this point, Ho Gina was already riding a tiger, and her greatest fear was receiving orders from Ko, especially on an errand like today’s with the purpose of taking someone’s life.
Hopefully Coe’s next step won’t be to ask her to come up with a new move while Cheng Lydia is in a coma, then she’ll really crack up!
“Since she’s so fated, let’s change the scenario.”
“What program?” Ho Gina asked mechanically.
“It’s time to let old Mrs. Shen and Shen Ron know about her ‘stolen’ birth control pills.”
Ho Gina sighed in relief, as long as she wasn’t asked to kill someone. She thought about it and spoke again in confusion, “Ms. Ke, if Cheng Lydia is allowed to learn the secret herself, won’t this method not work against her in the future?”
“Don’t you think it’s highly likely that the old lady, given her character, will throw her out of The Shen Family? Won’t she … be unable to conceive even if she wants to by then?”
“Oh, I see.”
“Give me some flexibility.”
“Yes.”
Hanging up the phone, Ho Gina breathed a sigh of relief.
When she closes her eyes, Shen Ron’s handsome face comes to mind, and she will get rid of all those women who are lucky enough to have that face!
The anesthetic passed and Cheng Lydia woke up with pain in her head and legs.
She opened her eyes in a ghostly way, a misty white, confusing white before her eyes.
Is this heaven? She really can’t escape the trick of fate and leave the colorful world of people early?
To her surprise, she saw Chung Grace in the blank white before her, the same Chung Grace who loved to wear pretty dresses and delicate light make-up and who cared for her all the time, and even now, her delicate face was still flooded with heartache for her.
“Grace, how did you get here too?” She asked with difficulty.
How did Chung Grace end up in heaven with her too? She didn’t want her to come, and she didn’t need her company. She should have stayed on the good earth and tried to pursue the happy life she wanted.
I don’t know if it was because of the pain or because she was moved, Cheng Lydia’s eyes were heavy with emotion. She closed her eyes and when she opened them again, Chung Grace’s figure was no longer there.
Unable to see her, Cheng Lydia instead panicked again, rubbing her dazed eyes as she struggled to sit up, the pain in her leg hit her instantly, forcing her to lie back down on the hospital bed after a shriek of pain.
As soon as Shen Ron returned from paying the bill outside, he saw her moaning in pain on the hospital bed.
Cheng Lydia was also stunned to see Shen Ron, sizing him up in surprise, then glanced around to see that she was not in heaven, but lying in a hospital room.
So she’s not dead? You’re not dead?
When the car hit a tree pole and tumbled down a small slope, she thought she was dead for sure this time, not … expecting it.
“I’m not dead?” She murmured as she gazed at Shen Ron not daring to to believe.
Shen Ron laughed, “How can you die that easily?”
“Just now I thought I had gone up to heaven.” Cheng Lydia thought of that image just now, of the blinking Chung Grace, and was busy asking again, “I think I just saw Chung Grace, did she come to see me?”
Shen Ron shook his head a little, “Not yet, but I’ve told her you were in a car accident and I’m sure she’ll come see you.”
Since Cheng Lydia had been moved to the ward, he had been at her bedside all the time except for one visit to pay the bill. And it had taken less than ten minutes in total to pay the fee.
His answer stained Cheng Lydia’s pale little face with a touch of disappointment; she had thought Chung Grace had forgiven her and had come to see her in the hospital.
“What’s wrong? The wound hurts?” Shen Ron asked as he surveyed her with a lost look on his face.
“It hurts, but I can bear it.” Cheng Lydia asked, “Who got me out? And who brought me to the hospital?”
“It’s me and Ahai and Hang and the others.”
“Thank you.”
“Say what you will or won’t, it’s good to have people around.”
“Why were you so careless?” Shen Ron asked distraught, the crash was more heartbreaking and frightening to him than it was to her, especially when security told him the car had been burned down to an empty shell.
He was thinking that if he hadn’t happened to stay at Shen Mansion, if he hadn’t rushed over there, the two security guards would not have been able to risk their lives to get her out of the carriage.
