Chapter 1432: Having One's Weakness Held in Someone Else's Hands

The examination results came out very quickly.

The two of them had no other problems, except for injuries to their wrists.

At the beginning, they didn't feel anything, but in the short time it took to get to the hospital, their wrists had already swollen up.

The doctor said the tendons were injured, prescribed medicine for the two of them, and told them to apply it externally and take it internally, while avoiding spicy food, seafood, and "trigger foods."

Simply put, they weren't allowed to eat anything delicious.

Coming out of the hospital, Gu Yuxin looked dejected.

Zichen comforted her: "It's okay, there is surveillance on that road section, the car that caused the accident will be found soon." He thought Gu Yuxin was feeling lingering fear, which was why she had that expression on her face.

"It's not that."

She stated the real reason for her worry: "My grandmother's birthday is coming up soon; how am I supposed to roll out longevity noodles looking like this?"

Zichen joked: "Don't you have a high-tech kitchen? Just use a noodle machine to make the noodles."

"Let's go, back to school."

She waved to call a taxi, and after the two got in, they still looked thoughtful and heavy-hearted.

After the Ferrari sped away, it stopped again in front of a hotel.

It had almost hit Zichen just now; that was close!

Lu Feifei's mind was full of Sheng Zichen; he hadn't been hit, so he should be fine, but would he discover that she was sitting in the car?

It seemed like he had seen her, but it also seemed like he hadn't.

She was feeling anxious and uneasy inside, so she hadn't paid attention to where the car was driving, and only when it stopped did she realize it was a hotel.

"Why did you bring me here? Take me back." She was extremely dissatisfied.

"Take you back?"

The rich second-generation heir suddenly laughed: "Hahahaha..."

After laughing enough, he said to her: "Sister, are you joking with me? Go ask around the world; has any girl that I, Young Master Qiao, have taken a fancy to ever been able to run away?"

Lu Feifei's heart was in chaos; she didn't want to play along with him and said directly: "I haven't taken a fancy to you."

"That's not important; I've taken a fancy to you."

"You stinking hooligan, what do you want to do in broad daylight? Let me out of the car, or I'll start shouting, and I'll have people drag you to the police station."

"Threatening me?"

The rich second-generation heir calmly took out his phone, pulled up a recording, and the words Lu Feifei said at the school gate played back: "Help me? How can you help? I don't need to anger him; I want you to hit that woman to death, do you dare?"

"You actually recorded it? Despicable!"

She wanted to reach over and grab the phone, but how could a girl snatch it away?

Not only did she fail to get the phone, but she was also pulled into the rich second-generation heir's embrace, and he took quite a few liberties.

"Let go of me, you shameless, degenerate person!"

To Young Master Qiao, words like these were equivalent to flirting.

The man threatened her, asking if she wanted to go to the police station together, and once there, they would see who was in trouble.

Young Master Qiao's family was powerful and influential, and since no actual consequences had occurred, even if Lu Feifei was naive, she could imagine the police wouldn't do anything to him.

But it was hard to say for herself.

She was the one who said those words; she counted as the mastermind.

Even if no serious consequences had been caused, if Sheng Zichen found out about this, she wouldn't have even the slightest chance left!

In the end, she had a good cry in the car.

After crying, she still followed Young Master Qiao into the hotel!

That car had appeared suspiciously, suddenly rushing onto the curb without any warning; it was very clear it had been aimed at Gu Yuxin.

Sheng Zichen decided to get to the bottom of it.

He went to the police station to report the case, and the police pulled up the nearby surveillance; the license plate number and the car owner were easily investigated.

Qiao An.

The eldest young master of the Qiao family, one of the Four Young Masters.

The reason the Four Young Masters were famous, besides their prominent family backgrounds, also included their habit of squandering money like dirt and spending thousands on a whim!

Eating, drinking, and having fun—anyway, they did everything except for proper work every day.

Just such a notorious young master had almost hit him to death!

But why?

He thought about it carefully, but no matter how he thought, he couldn't remember having any conflict with Qiao An.

They didn't know each other, and the two families had no connection whatsoever.

He couldn't figure it out, and although the police station could pull up the surveillance, they couldn't do anything to Qiao An.

After all, he had stepped on the brake at the last moment and hadn't actually hit him.

Zichen requested to watch the surveillance again, and this time he discovered a clue.

The girl sitting in the passenger seat had kept her head down the whole time, but she had an occasional movement of lifting her head, and Zichen saw clearly that the person sitting in the passenger seat was Lu Feifei!

Now he understood everything.

Why Qiao An's car had hit toward Gu Yuxin without warning—it was all Lu Feifei causing trouble behind it.

Zichen called Lu Feifei, but the phone was always in a state of not being answered.

He then left a WeChat message, requesting to meet with Lu Feifei.

The message was like a clay ox entering the sea; there was no response at all!

……

Evening study hall.

"Zichen, sit here."

As soon as he walked into the study hall, Gu Yuxin waved at him; she had already saved a seat for him.

Not only did she save a seat, but she also brought him a thermos, and inside the thermos was hot pig trotter soup!

What a sin.

The classmates wailed.

Bringing a midnight snack to evening study, is this something a human would do?

The fragrance permeated the study hall; how was everyone supposed to study?

Gu Yuxin didn't care about that; Sheng Zichen had injured his wrist because he saved her, and one must be grateful and repay kindness.

These past few days, she had been very good to Zichen, saving the best seat for him, and there was even a cartoon-patterned cushion on the seat, various soups that were never the same each day on the desk, and snacks.

Zichen knew this situation was caused by himself and felt ashamed to accept it, so he returned the favor, giving corresponding rewards whenever he received benefits from her.

Delicious pastries.

Local specialties sent by his master.

Foreign snacks and dried fruits sent from home...

All were sent to Gu Yuxin.

The two of them went back and forth, very lively.

Gu Yuxin and Sheng Zichen were no longer bickering the moment they met; the two got along in a friendly manner, exceptionally harmonious.

The classmates were not quite used to such a harmonious atmosphere.

Consequently, rumors spread in the class that Zichen was dating the Female Devil.

"Nothing of the sort, the two of us just have a pure classmate relationship, don't guess wildly." Zichen denied it flatly.

Just as he finished denying it, Gu Yuxin came to find him.

She asked him to go home with her; there was an important matter to discuss!

"Go quickly, don't forget to come back before the main gate closes at night," a classmate reminded him.

"No need to come back, just stay outside..."

"You guys..."

Forget it, the more you explain, the darker it gets.

Since it couldn't be explained clearly, then he wouldn't explain it at all.

Zichen went out, and Gu Yuxin grabbed his hand and ran: "Hurry up, hurry up."

The two of them holding hands, didn't that just confirm the classmates' teasing even more?

He shook his hand, but couldn't shake her off, so he simply let it be.

Arriving at Gu Yuxin's home, Zichen finally understood that her automatic noodle machine was broken.

"What should I do? Zichen, what should I do? Today is my grandmother's birthday, and the noodle machine just had to break at this time; how can I make noodles with the same taste?"

"Easy, knead the dough and roll it out yourself!"

Zichen offered an idea.

"But my hand is injured, I can't roll noodles with one hand." Gu Yuxin stared at him, her eyes saying, help me, help me, help me!
