C3 Accident

The next day.

"Mom, I've borrowed some money."

Inside the hospital ward, Jiang Qi's mother, Feng Yanzhi, was sitting in front of a sickbed. When she saw her, she hurriedly stood up.

Jiang Yun's hand trembled slightly as he held out a cheque to Feng Ya Zhi.

"Great, Lan'er is saved."

Tears of joy welled up in Feng Yanzhi's eyes as she tightly held Jiang Qi's hands.

Jiang Qi smiled bitterly. "Mom, hurry up and hand over the money. We can't delay Feng Lan's operation."

"Yes, you're right."

Holding the money, Feng Yazi quickly left the room.

Feng Lan laid on the bed, his gaze resting lightly on Jiang Qi. His puzzled gaze fell on Jiang Qi.

"Money, how did you get it?"

"Are you all right now?"

Jiang Qi smiled, but didn't answer his question. "The operation is going to start in a few days. Don't worry."

"You went to look for him again?"

Feng Lan's expression was serious.

She suddenly became silent and eventually admitted, "Yes, but you don't need to care about these things."

Feng Yazi came back with a smile on his tired face, unable to hide his joy.

"Yun'er, it's good that you're back. Take care of Lan'er first, I'll go out and buy some food first. Our family will have a good meal."

"Yes."

Jiang Yun smiled, but Feng Lan's face didn't reveal the slightest hint of a smile.

"Enough, don't be sad. You don't have to worry about money. All you need to do is to get better quickly."

"Sorry."

Feng Lan slightly raised her head and said in a low voice, "It's all my fault that I dragged you guys down."

"Don't say that."

In the blink of an eye, it was already evening.

"Why hasn't Mom come back yet?"

The afterglow of the setting sun shone through the window. Jiang Yun silently gazed at the window, his brow furrowed slightly.

"Feng Lan, you rest first, I'll go take a look."

With these words, Jiang Qi left the room immediately.

She walked along the road for a long time and saw a group of people gathered in front of her. They were discussing something.

Jiang Qi suddenly had an ominous premonition. She squeezed through the crowd and saw a woman lying in a pool of blood on the street.

Beside him, a few vegetable leaves were scattered all over the place, along with a brown handbag.

Jiang Qi recognized her at a glance. It was her mother.

She stood there, stunned, and a few seconds later, she dashed like a madman to the side of Fengyazhi.

"Mom!"

She let out a roar, crouched down on the ground, and burst into tears.

Feng Ya Zhi seemed to still have a bit of consciousness, she was dying, "Yun …"

"Mom, it's okay, it's definitely going to be okay. I'll call 120 right now."

Jiang Qi's face was deathly pale and his entire body was trembling. He took out his mobile phone from his pocket and hurriedly dialed 120.

Jiang Qi tightly held onto Feng Ya Zhi, cold sweat trickling down his forehead. She was burning with anxiety as she looked around.

What he saw was the cold eyes of others watching from the sidelines.

In the blink of an eye, Jiang Rong had fallen into despair.

Next to him, a Rolls-Royce stopped. Jiang Qi raised his head, as if he had seen hope.

"Shen Mo!"

She cried out in despair. She definitely would not recognize this car wrong. It was Shen Mo …

However, the car only stopped for a few seconds before it passed by her and sped away.

Jiang Qi's face was ashen, and his hands were still tightly holding onto Feng Ya Zhi.

After an unknown period of time, the ambulance arrived late. Even Jiang Yun himself couldn't remember how her mother had been sent to the emergency room.

Finally, after a few hours, the lights in the operation room suddenly went out.

The doctor slowly walked out. Jiang Yun stood up in a daze. "Doctor, how is my mother …"

"We can't save him in time, we have already … "I did my best …"

Those words shattered the last sliver of hope in her heart. Her eyes were bloodshot as she looked at the corpse that was pushed out.

"Mom!"

She immediately rushed over, but was stopped by several nurses.

Jiang Yun fell to the ground, the only sound remaining in the entire hallway was her miserable wails.

She sobbed and leaned against the wall, clutching her mother's brown handbag, the blood still fresh from her body.

Even though it was daytime, her mother was still smiling in front of her. She had said that she would only go buy vegetables.

She could not understand why such a thing would happen.

"… …"

"Where's Mom?" Feng Lan asked anxiously.

Jiang Qi simply shook his head and explained in a soft voice, "She's not feeling well, so I'll take her home first."

Feng Lan's eyes were filled with doubt.

"Are you alright?"

"En, don't ask anymore. I'll be leaving first."

Jiang Qi immediately turned his head so that Feng Lan wouldn't see his tears.

She ran out of the room and stood in the corridor, wiping her eyes.

I can't let Feng Lan know that my mother has passed away … His illness could not bear the blow …

In the rented room.

Jiang Qi sat paralyzed on the bed, tightly hugging himself. She had no idea how the past few days had gone by.

Even her mother's memorial service was her own.

Even so, she still couldn't admit the fact that her mother had died. Jiang Qi could only hope that this was a dream that would end soon.

"Ding dong..." The doorbell rang.

Jiang Qi impatiently opened the door, and the first thing he saw was the familiar figure — Shen Mo.

"What are you doing here?" Jiang Yun said expressionlessly.

"What do you think?" Shen Mo's voice was filled with indifference, "I shall accept your contract."

"Heh." "Jiang Qi laughed coldly. "Did you deliberately come to humiliate me on this day?"

"What madness?"

Shen Mo was obviously impatient. He grabbed her hand and pulled her outwards.

Jiang Qi struggled desperately, but he was still pulled to the front of the carriage.

It was the same car that had stopped next to her that day for a few seconds.

At this moment, she was filled with resistance towards this car. Tears immediately welled up in her eyes.

"Why did you not save him?"

She couldn't help but yell at him.

A hint of astonishment flashed across Shen Mo's eyes, but was instantly covered up by ice.

"You were the one who wanted to marry me. What, now you're going back on your word?"

The veins on Shen Mo's forehead were popping out, and he was getting more and more annoyed with Jiang Qi. He was also confused by her words.

"You think I want to marry you?"

"If it wasn't for you using such despicable methods to force me to marry you, do you think I would have married you?"

Pulling on her, Shen Mo stuffed her into the back of the car.

Even the co-pilot refused to let her touch him.

Upon hearing these words, Jiang Qi gave up on struggling. Instead, he sat in the carriage and broke down in tears.

"Don't cry."

Shen Mo frowned, feeling increasingly agitated.

"I know you hate me, but a human life is in front of you, so why are you not helping my mother?"

"What do you mean?"

He didn't know what Jiang Yun was up to, but Shen Mo was completely baffled by her actions.

However, Jiang Qi remained silent and didn't respond.

She thought he was just pretending not to know.

As the car sped on, she was eventually taken to the Civil Affairs Bureau and the two of them silently completed the entire process.

Both of them wore a stern expression on their marriage certificate. Jiang Qi's eyes were slightly red and swollen, without even the slightest trace of happiness.

Ten days after the death of Jiang Yan's mother, they were married.
