Song Fengwan was currently leaning against the balcony. The other parents had already arrived at the classroom one after anotherâ¦
âEveryone, get ready. We leave for the auditorium in ten minutes.â The teacherâs voice came from the classroom.
She looked at her watch.?Why isnât she here yet?
She couldnât help feeling anxious.
âSong Fengwan, enter the classroom first,â the homeroom teacher called out to her.
âOkay.â Song Fengwan nodded.
âCould I trouble the parents and fellow students to find a seat first? Weâll head to the auditorium soonâ¦â The homeroom teacher had specially dressed up today, looking exceptionally energetic.
Song Fengwan sat in her seat with a slightly lonely expression.

At this moment, there was a huge uproar outside the school gatesâ¦
Sun Zhen was dumbfounded from fright. His fingers holding the steering wheel were all sweaty, and he couldnât differentiate between the brake and the accelerator. By the time he saw that he was about to crash into a car, it was too late to step on the brake.
Bang!?His head hit the steering wheel, and the airbag instantly popped out.
His car didnât hit Qiao Aiyunâs car directly. Instead, it hit the front of her car and the rear of a car in front.
There happened to be a street light beside Qiao Aiyunâs car. The front of the car pressed against the street light, and the street light swayed violently.
The front of her car was twisted and deformed from the pressure, and one of her legs had gotten stuck inside. She was bending down at the time, and the steering wheel hit her abdomen. It was so painful that her body went numb, and she instantly lost consciousness.
There were still many people at the school gates, and they were all alarmed by this sudden scene.
How could Qian Jiang care about Sun Zhen at this moment? He rushed over straight away and wrenched open Qiao Aiyunâs car door.
Fortunately, she had only gone to the car to change her shoes. The car hadnât been locked up, so even if it was mangled, he could still wrench the door open with a little force. âMs. Qiao!â
âAh!â Qiao Aiyun felt a piercing pain in her lower body. It was very difficult for her to even open her mouth to speak.
Qian Jiang lowered his head to take a look. Her leg was stuck in the twisted car body, and a faint trace of blood was seeping out. He tried to use his strength to pry it open, but the car was made of steel and couldnât budge.
âCome help!â Qian Jiang shouted at the crowd.
Someone immediately came to their senses and ran over.
At this moment, Sun Zhen was already scared out of his wits. His head was in a daze, his legs were trembling, and his forehead was covered in blood from the collision. He pushed open the car door while shivering and ran away while the crowd was in chaosâ¦
His legs were trembling and staggering, and he even fell halfway.
âHey, that hit-and-run culpritâ¦â someone shouted behind him.
Everyoneâs focus was on Qiao Aiyun. They didnât expect this person to dare to run away after hitting someone with a car in broad daylight.
Everyone worked together and quickly rescued Qiao Aiyun from the car. Qian Jiang carried her out straight away. Qiao Aiyun was in so much pain right now that she had already completely fainted.
Qian Jiang glanced at the pregnancy test kit on the front passenger seat.
No matter how calm he was, alarm still swelled up in his heart.?Could it beâ¦
âWeâve already called the police and an ambulance!â a parent said.
âThank you.â
âTake my car first and send her to the hospital.â Qiao Aiyun had been changing her shoes just now. At this moment, her feet were bare, and her ankles were dyed with blood. Her forehead was also bruised from the collision, and there was even blood slowly dripping down the back of Qian Jiangâs hand.
âOkay.â Qian Jiang couldnât drive her himself. He got into the kind-hearted manâs car and went straight to the hospital.
Fortunately, the nearest hospital was only five to six minutes away by carâ¦
Qian Jiang took out his phone and called Fu Chen first. He didnât have Yan Wangchuanâs number.
At this time, Fu Chen, Fu Zhongli, and the others were drinking tea in the principalâs office. The students would be entering the auditorium at 1:30 p.m., so they could get there at 1:50 p.m.
He picked up his phone. âHello.â
âThird Master, Ms. Qiao got into a car accident.â
Fu Chenâs fingers suddenly tightened, almost twisting the prayer bead bracelet broken. âWhat?â
Fu Zhongli was sitting beside him and saw his voice suddenly sinking. He looked at him sideways.
Fu Chen got up and walked outâ¦
âIs Third Brother all right?â It had been a long time since Sun Qionghua had participated in an event with Fu Zhongli publicly. She had dressed up carefully, looking elegant and low-key.
Fu Zhongli took a sip of tea and didnât say anything.
Fu Chen walked out with his phone. âWhy would Aunt Yun get into an accident?â
âSun Zhen hit her with his car. Iâm taking her to the hospital now. At the moment, her calf seems to have some fractures, and the rest are just abrasions. Butâ¦â
âWhat?â
âI saw that in her car, she hadâ¦â
Fu Chenâs fingers tightened. âWhich hospital?â
Qian Jiang asked the driver. âYuncheng Second Hospital.â
âKeep me in contact.â He hung up and called Yan Wangchuanâs cell phone.
***
At this time, Yan Wangchuan was having a video conference with his companyâs higher-ups to research the arrangement of activities for International Womenâs Day. When he saw the caller ID, he reached out to cover his brow bone, and a strange look flashed across his eyes. âThe meeting is suspended.â
He picked up his phone. âHello.â
The companyâs senior executives only saw Yan Wangchuanâs expression change drastically after hearing what the person said. Then he disappeared from the screenâ¦
He said that the meeting was suspended, but he never came back.
â⦠Iâll be right there.â Yan Wangchuan grabbed his car key and didnât even have time to change his clothes and shoes.
âQian Jiang is over there. Donât get anxious.â Fu Chen knew that if this kind of thing happened to Song Fengwan, he might go crazy. At this very moment, he could only comfort Yan Wangchuan like this. âDrive safely. If anything happens to you, there will be no one to take care of Aunt Yun.â
âI know.â Yan Wangchuan got into the car and was about to hang up when he thought of something. âFu Chen, Wanwan still doesnât know?â
âNot yet.â
âPlease take care of her. Donât tell her about this yet.â
âMhm.â Fu Chen hung up and gestured to Shi Fang, who was standing at the side. âSend someone to find Sun Zhen.â
Shi Fang nodded.?This f*cking suicidal asshole, isnât he courting death by causing trouble at a time like this?

Yuncheng First High Schoolâs auditoriumâ¦
At this moment, Class 8, Song Fengwanâs class, had already entered the auditorium. The seat beside her was still empty. She took out her phone from her pocket and looked at her homeroom teacher. She secretly called Qiao Aiyun, but it kept going unanswered.
She sent a message to Qiao Aiyun, informing her of the venue and seat position.
âSong Fengwan, is no one coming from your family?â The classmate beside her looked at her.
âShe said she would come.â The longer time passed, the more uneasy she felt. Her mother would never not answer the phone for no reason.
Just as she was feeling anxious and uneasy, there was suddenly a commotion around her. The venue was very chaotic at this moment. She had been looking down to check the time all this while. The time slid past 1:50â¦
She panicked and was about to get up to leave when a pair of hands reached out and pressed her body down.
The man had an agarwood prayer bead bracelet in his hand, and the hanging hibiscus stone landed on her shoulder. Her heart skipped a beat, and she tilted her head to look at the person beside her.
She was flabbergasted from fright.
Ninety percent of the people who came today were parents. There were also some who were relatives and friends. Although there were also many young faces, very few were as eye-catching as Fu Chen.
The light in the auditorium was slightly dim, and half of his body was shrouded in shadows. He sat down directly beside Song Fengwan. His movements were very casual, and his legs crossed casually. There was an inexplicable sense of maturity and an amorous feeling.
This excellence exuded from his bones. His body had long been tempered to the point that there was no sense of aggressiveness around him. He blended into the crowd, but he was also detached from the world.
âAre you Song Fengwanâs guardian?â The homeroom teacher came over to count the number of people.
âMhm.â
âOkay. Thank you for taking the time out of your busy schedule to come today.â The homeroom teacher was a man, but he also had to resist taking a couple more glances at him. He passed him a notice printed in red letters.
The words on the paper were nothing more than thanking the parents for coming to the grand pledge ceremony and once again mentioning the importance of the hundredth-day sprint of hard work to senior high school students.
âWhy are you here?â Song Fengwanâs heart trembled, and she was so nervous that her tongue started to get all knotted.
âAunt Yun had something to do at the last minute, and I happened to be nearby, so Iâm helping her come here instead.â His expression was calm as usual, and she couldnât see any abnormality.
âMy mom is already on her way here. What matter could she have?â Song Fengwan was suspicious.
âItâs about to start.â Fu Chen pointed below the stage.
Fu Zhongli and Sun Qionghua were already sitting on the stage. Looking downward from their angle, they saw a sea of people. No matter how superior Fu Chenâs features were, it was difficult to find him with more than a thousand teachers and students, plus parents too.
Song Fengwan was extremely nervous, and Fu Chenâs heart was not quite tranquil either.?I hope Aunt Yun is fine.
At this moment, a girl in the front row turned around. âSong Fengwan, is this the older cousin you mentioned before? Heâs so handsome.â
This girl had a pretty good relationship with her, so she knew that she had a tall and handsome older male cousin.
âThisâ¦â Song Fengwan didnât know how to introduce Fu Chen.
Fu Chen frowned slightly when he saw the difficult expression on her face.?Am I that unpresentable?
Song Fengwan felt conflicted. There were too many people in school, and there would be a lot of gossip. If not handled properly, the two of them might blow their cover. She couldnât mention their true relationship, nor could she call him Third Brother. She braced herself and said a line.
âThis is my uncle.â
As if a sharp arrow had stabbed him, Fu Chenâs face became completely pitch-black, and his chest throbbed.
This addressâ¦
⦠is worse than calling me older cousin!
