Chapter 113 Explosion
Chapter 113 Explosion
Lin Nan probably thought Jiang Yichen was in trouble, so she acted exceptionally quickly and appeared shortly afterward.
Upon seeing me, her face fell instantly, just like always.
Because Jiang Yichen was still around, she didn't directly confront me, but she still didn't give me a friendly look.
Jiang Yichen briefly explained what had just happened, and Lin Nan, after understanding the cause and effect, readily admitted it.
"That's right, it was me who paid that vendor. I was just worried about the negative impact at the time, since you had a relationship with Yichen before, and I didn't want you to be implicated in him."
When I learned that it was Lin Nan who did it, I felt a moment of disappointment.
Lin Nan captured my emotion very accurately and immediately added to it.
"Although it didn't actually stop you from causing trouble."
I suddenly felt inferior.
It seems like I've been dragging Jiang Yichen down all along.
Thinking of all this, I lowered my head and whispered an apology to him, "I'm sorry, Jiang Yichen, I didn't want to cause you any trouble."
But to everyone's surprise, Jiang Yichen simply snorted coldly, his tone carrying a hint of sarcasm.
"Did I hear that right? Miss Gu actually bowed her head and apologized?"
What he said is true. If it were in the past, I would never have said "I'm sorry" to him.
Hearing his sarcastic words, I looked up and met his gaze, then spoke again.
"It is true that I have dragged you into this. I really should apologize for this. I will try my best to do my job well in the future."
After I finished speaking, I turned and left.
She stopped looking to see how Jiang Yichen would react.
But as soon as I stepped out the door, I heard a sound coming from inside.
Lin Nan's voice carried a hint of worry as she tried to dissuade Jiang Yichen.
"Yichen, you shouldn't go to the banquet tonight. The other party is definitely not simple. I don't want you to take that risk."
Upon hearing these words, I unconsciously stopped in my tracks.
Immediately afterwards, I heard Jiang Yichen's voice.
His voice was very cold, but he said firmly, "It's okay, some things always have to be resolved."
I was completely confused by their conversation, but something felt off.
Wanting to learn more, I deliberately inquired about it.
Surprisingly, I actually found out where Jiang Yichen was going to attend the banquet that night.
Judging that it was about time, I secretly slipped away by myself.
Luxury cars lined the area outside the banquet hall, all testifying to the grand scale of the event.
Thinking about Lin Nan's words, I couldn't help but feel a little worried about Jiang Yichen.
After most of the guests had gone inside, I slipped in, avoiding the security blind spots.
They kept searching for Jiang Yichen's whereabouts in the banquet hall.
Presumably because of his status, he was surrounded by a group of people.
Amidst the clinking of glasses, many people came forward to offer Jiang Yichen a toast.
"President Jiang, I heard you recently secured another major collaboration. Let me toast you."
"Mr. Jiang, Jiang's stock is rising. When would you like to share your experience with us?"
All sorts of people appeared before Jiang Yichen with fawning expressions.
In the back and forth they went, Jiang Yichen was forced to drink quite a bit of alcohol.
Thinking of Jiang Yichen's body, I don't know where I got the courage, but I steeled myself and stepped forward.
Seeing my sudden appearance, Jiang Yichen's eyes showed a hint of surprise, but his face quickly turned cold, and he questioned me in a deep voice.
"Gu Mo, what are you doing here?"
Ignoring his words, I walked straight towards him and gently advised, "Jiang Yichen, you've had too much to drink. Don't drink anymore."
But the next second, a reprimand rang out.
Jiang Yichen frowned, clearly displeased. "What right do you have to tell me what to do? Who let you come here?"
Upon seeing me, the others began whispering about my identity.
I ignored their voices and continued to persuade Jiang Yichen.
"You have to think about your own health."
Jiang Yichen wouldn't listen to me at all. He seemed a little tipsy, and when he waved his hand, he accidentally spilled the wine on me.
My skirt is covered in a stain.
Left with no other option, I had to go to the bathroom to take care of it.
But when I came out, I found that Jiang Yichen was already gone.
He actually abandoned me so decisively.
I don't know why, but I always feel a pang of sadness in my heart.
The business banquet was held in the mountains, and I couldn't get a taxi at all, so I had to walk back alone.
My feet started to ache, and I had only walked half the distance.
On my way back, I felt incredibly wronged.
If I weren't worried about him, why would I have come all this way?
Just then, I heard a roaring sound.
It sounded like a stone falling.
I instantly became a little more alert and looked around.
Unexpectedly, Jiang Yichen's car crashed into the roadside due to falling rocks.
I quickly ran towards his car.
But before I arrived, I saw someone carrying a knife walk towards the driver's seat.
It was obvious they wanted to attack him.
I was still some distance from Jiang Yichen, and after realizing what had happened, I immediately took out my phone to take pictures to preserve evidence.
"What do you want to do? Put the knife down right now."
I deliberately raised my voice and shouted at the man.
Upon hearing my voice, the man paused for a moment, but still intended to continue.
I immediately became anxious and continued shouting.
“I have already called the police, and they will be here soon. I have also recorded everything you did. Stop it now.”
When I told him to call the police, the man put away his knife and ran away without a second thought.
I breathed a sigh of relief and quickly ran to the car.
Jiang Yichen had already lost consciousness.
I pounded on the car window and kept calling his name.
But he didn't react at all.
Fearing the car might explode, I quickly picked up some stones from the roadside and smashed the car windows with all my might.
The car window was very sturdy; it took me a long time to finally break it open.
The car's airbags had been deployed. I reached inside, opened the car door, and slapped Jiang Yichen's face hard, trying to wake him up.
No matter how hard I tried, he wouldn't respond to me.
I checked his breathing and, after confirming that he was still breathing, I unbuckled his seatbelt and tried to pull him out.
We have a huge weight difference, and I can't move him at all.
It took me a long time to finally manage to pull him out a little.
But it was at this moment that I smelled gasoline.
I crouched down and checked the car's fuel tank, only to find that it was already damaged.
I was extremely anxious and kept pulling on Jiang Yichen.
Perhaps hearing my calls, Jiang Yichen slowly woke up.
Seeing the current situation, he weakly tried to persuade me.
"Gu Mo, don't worry about me, I'll go by myself."
The front of the car was deformed, and Jiang Yichen's legs were stuck in the driver's seat.
When he told me to leave, I refused.
"No, I can't walk alone."
Seeing my stubbornness, Jiang Yichen spoke again.
"You can't move me, hurry up and leave, you can still live."
Upon hearing this, I pulled him even harder, continuing to express my stance.
"I will not leave you here alone; I would rather die with you."
My words touched him, and after he came to his senses, he tried his best to escape.
We both pulled at the same time, and after several attempts, we finally managed to free his stuck leg.
After I successfully rescued Jiang Yichen from the car.
The car also exploded in flames.
