Chapter 1101 Angels Arrive 52
That very evening, news would spread that the Zhong family had disregarded the royal family and showed no regard for the birthday banquet.
When Zhong Yanchuan heard Uncle Wu's report, he felt even stranger, and immediately thought of the car he had found with its tires removed that morning.
If the other party just wanted to vent or retaliate, they could have simply smashed the car. Why did they have to remove the tires? The same applies to Uncle Wu's car.
It seemed that the other party was trying to prevent him from attending the banquet.
Who could stop them?
It couldn't be someone from the royal family. The royal family extended multiple formal invitations, setting a trap at the banquet, just waiting for them to fall into it.
It certainly wouldn't be Zhong Xiaochen; he'd be more than happy to send himself over to face the royal family's questioning, thus avoiding deeper dissatisfaction from everyone while dealing with the royal family.
Zhong Yanchuan couldn't think of anything, so he stopped thinking about it and turned his attention back to the more pressing matters at hand.
Before he could come up with a good solution, a message popped up on his phone.
"You left something in my car, is it still in the styling studio? I'll bring it to you in ten minutes."
When Zhong Yanchuan saw this message, his eyes lit up; he had an idea.
When Lingyao heard Zhong Yanchuan say, "Could you lend me your car for a day?", she almost slipped and fell over.
Of course, she would never do such an unseemly thing, even if it was just a little bit!
Lingyao did not agree to his request.
Instead, with a serious face, he solemnly said, "I'll give it to you. My car is picky about who it is and it's hard to drive."
?
Although Zhong Yanchuan really wanted to ask why the car recognized people and what made it difficult to drive, he suddenly couldn't bring himself to ask when he saw her tense and cold little face.
He looked at her for a long time before finally nodding in agreement.
"Okay, I'll trouble you."
We're just going to ride together tonight, nothing serious should happen. We'll just make sure she doesn't get off the bus.
Having figured this out, Zhong Yanchuan got into the car.
Lingyao finally got the person into the car, and almost shed a couple of crocodile tears.
Get Rich Quick: Host, these are indeed crocodile tears, meant to protect the God of Wealth from the wind and rain, but don't ask where this wind and rain came from!
Lingyao: "Fugui, if you have nothing to do, why don't you lie down on the road and become a speed bump?"
In the car, Zhong Yanchuan glanced at the shadows of the trees passing by outside the window, then turned his gaze to Ling Yao.
Are you working or studying here?
Lingyao thought for a moment and then spoke according to the original owner's current situation.
"Studying." Although the original owner was homeschooled because she couldn't afford tuition.
Zhong Yanchuan nodded, assuming that Lingyao was studying at a university here.
He continued, "So what are your plans after graduation?"
Zhong Yanchuan clenched his fingers slightly; he hadn't had a chance to ask her these questions yesterday.
His heart was pounding so hard, and the kiss felt so good, that he felt dizzy, as if he had fallen into a barrel of wine and was completely drunk.
I almost forgot about these practical issues.
For example, his plans to return to China.
However, he didn't think it was a big problem.
If he is studying here, he can postpone his plans to return home until she finishes her studies here.
She could fly between domestic and international destinations, but that might not be fair to her.
If she wants to settle here long-term, he will listen to her reasons for wanting to settle here.
Then he might discuss living together with his partner for a period of time, both domestically and internationally, before deciding on a final settlement.
In short, all the problems could be solved by Zhong Yanchuan, but he was not quite sure what Ling Yao thought.
After all, not everyone thinks like him; everyone is different.
Fortunately, Lingyao's answer surprised him.
"I will return to China to settle down in the future."
"Mmm." Zhong Yanchuan gave a soft "Mmm," but the corners of his mouth involuntarily curled up. "Me too, I'm planning to go back to China."
Zhong Yanchuan felt that what he had experienced in the past two days was just like an idol drama. How could there be such a suitable person whom he liked?
He liked her from beginning to end, from the outside in, from her way of speaking and behavior, from her personality to her life plans.
It felt like this person was a perfect match for his ideal type, as if God had given him one hundred percent.
If she weren't still driving, Zhong Yanchuan would have loved to hug her and kiss her to ease the turmoil in his heart.
However, Zhong Yanchuan noticed that Lingyao had taken a detour.
He quickly reminded her, "Did you turn in the wrong direction?"
Lingyao, deliberately nonchalant, gave a calm "hmm".
"It's okay, just turn back at the next corner, it won't take long."
In reality, Lingyao was shouting in her heart: Drive, drive to the edge of the city, and don't come back once you're far away.
Suddenly Rich: [Honey, you've become increasingly silly lately. Is this still the same innocent and adorable host I knew?]
Ling Yao: [You have a second host?] What's with the "innocent and cute" thing?
Is any one of these four characters related to her? Hehe.
Suddenly Rich: [Oh, I misspoke, my dear host. The innocent and adorable one is the God of Wealth. Are you still my cold and aloof host?]
Lingyao: [...]
Lingyao was happily speeding along the road, the wind blowing through her jet-black hair. Lingyao felt that she must look incredibly beautiful right now.
Then, the next second, there was a loud bang.
The explosion was deafening, almost causing eardrums to shatter and ringing, all at the same time.
Ling Yao and Zhong Yanchuan almost instinctively lunged at each other.
However, Lingyao, who had anticipated this, reacted quickly and pulled Zhong Yanchuan into her arms.
Before her head hit the car in the violent collision, a sticky, hot liquid rolled down Lingyao's forehead.
Lingyao's eardrums and head were buzzing.
Even so, I was still cursing in my head.
Holy crap...
Before she fainted, Lingyao heard Fugui's urgent and rapid explanation, fearing that if she was too late, she would lose her head.
[Host, don't worry. This car accident was just created by the Heavenly Dao of this plane to fix a system loophole. It won't harm the God of Wealth or cause any real damage to you. It's just that the God of Wealth's disability over the past ten years is very difficult to repair, so the Heavenly Dao created this car accident to injure the God of Wealth's leg for a period of time to make up for the loophole...]
Of course, it was also because neither of them used their true forms this time, only their souls. Otherwise, the Heavenly Dao of these planes would never have dared to actually do anything to them like that...
At the same time, Zhong Xiaochen received an anonymous letter informing him that Zhong Yanchuan had not followed the route to the banquet.
He was advised that it would be best to go in person, otherwise the royal family would not easily give in.
Then, after hearing Uncle Wu report that Zhong Yanchuan's car had been totaled twice, he was furious. He was convinced that Zhong Yanchuan had done this to avoid the banquet. In a fit of temper, he decided to drive to the banquet himself and take a detour.
So what if they're royalty? He doesn't believe they'd actually dare to do anything.
As a result, a violent explosion occurred on the way there.
When Zhong Xiaochen woke up, both of his legs had already undergone amputation surgery...
Cause and effect, the butterfly effect: a change in one thing determines the occurrence of another.
