âOh, itâs you. Iâm so sorry. Are you in the parking garage now? Iâll be right there.â Gu Huanhuanâs upbringing and education since young had taught her to bravely own up to her mistakes.
Gu Huanhuan had already hung up before the caller could reply. She thought for a moment and put on her mask before she took the elevator to the parking garage.
From afar, Gu Huanhuan could already see a tall and elegant looking man standing next to her car. As she didnât have perfect vision, she couldnât make out his face clearly.
When she got closer, the man was bent over and looking at the dent she had made on his car. He was so focused that he did not notice her approaching.
âIâm sorryâ¦â Gu Huanhuan said carefully. âSorry to disturb you, Iâmâ¦ân/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
âI know, you must be Miss Sorryâ¦â The man stood up straight and turned around.
Gu Huanhuan raised her head to look. Sh*t, why was this man haunting her? Wasnât he the doctor named Wen Chi? Why did they meet again?
âWhy is it you?â Gu Huanhuan could not help but say.
âI also want to ask why it is me.â Wen Chi said plainly. He was also a little surprised. Although Gu Huanhuan was wearing a mask, he recognized her right away.
Because she also wore a mask when she came to see a doctor the last time. Her eyes were as bright as the stars, and he couldnât forget them even if he tried.
âI didnât know itâs your car. I hit it by accident when I was backing in.â Gu Huanhuan wanted to act as if she was in the right but she wasnât, so she sounded a little guilty when she spoke.
âWhat do you want to do?â Gu Huanhuan asked. This person looked kind; he probably wouldnât ask for some exorbitant compensationâ¦
But didnât people say that one shouldnât judge a book by its cover?
âWell, I⦠Iâll need to think about it carefully.â Wen Chi initially thought that it was a small matter and was going to let it go. However, when he saw Gu Huanhuanâs demeanor, he suddenly wanted to tease her.
He said that on purpose to test her reaction.
âAs long as your request isnât too excessive, or Iâll call the police.â Gu Huanhuan applauded herself for being smart enough to end her sentence with a threat. He probably wouldnât act recklessly after hearing that.
Gu Huanhuan could have filed an insurance claim but she was a public figure and didnât need to be seen as a clown. Moreover, the problem wasnât too big. The repair probably wouldnât cost that much, so she decided against insurance.
âGo ahead and call the police. Weâll let everyone know who hit my car so that they can avoid the bad driver in the future.â Wen Chi went along with Gu Huanhuanâs threat.
Wen Chi remembered that she had mentioned that she was a celebrity, probably some E-list celebrity. He had never cared about the entertainment industry, but he knew that public figures were wary of scandals. A car accident wasnât something to be proud of.
As expected, he heard Gu Huanhuan reply through gritted teeth, âBro, I only mentioned that in passing. Why do you take it seriously?â
âIâm sorry, Miss Gu. Iâm not very smart and have misunderstood you.â Wen Chi said calmly.
âDrive your car to a nearby 4S shop and find out how much the repair will cost. Iâll pay for it.â Gu Huanhuanâs reaction was commendable, and her attitude was excellent.
âWell, that settles it then. After all, we know each other, and I donât think youâll run away. Youâre my patient after all.â When Wen Chi suddenly brought this up, Gu Huanhuan remembered her dark past and wished that there was a hole in the ground she could hide in.
âShut up. Donât ever mention that matter again.â Gu Huanhuan was a little angry from being embarrassed.
âIâm sorry to have brought up your unpleasant memories.â Wen Chi was apologizing, but Gu Huanhuan felt that he wasnât sincere.
