Chapter 183: Car Delivery + Sinkhole
Chapter 183
The days passed quickly for the two of them together. Chu Yang soon adapted to this lifestyle. On workdays, Chi Yan would drive her to A University in the morning, then go to B University himself. Sometimes if he didn't go to B University, he would go to the company, but he would still drop her off first.
If Chi Yan didn't get off work in time, Chu Yang would go home herself. Sometimes she would cook, but Chi Yan would always do the dishes. On weekends, Chi Yan usually cooked, and sometimes they would eat out. Either way, they didn't complain about the housework.
One day, Chu Yang was writing her assignments in the study when Chi Yan came back. He quietly pushed open the door and placed a small box in front of Chu Yang.
Chu Yang looked up, "What did you buy again?" Since they had been living together, Chi Yan often brought her little surprises, like a bouquet of fresh flowers, a pair of earrings, a lipstick, a perfume, etc. Her vanity table was filled with her things, while Chi Yan's only had a razor that Chu Yang had bought for him.
Chi Yan sat opposite her, propping his face with his hands expectantly, "Open it and see?"
Chu Yang picked up the box and opened it. It was a set of car keys.
Chu Yang held the car keys and looked at him quizzically.
Chi Yan explained, "I bought you a car. It just arrived today. Do you want to go take a look?"
Chu Yang stood up, "Why did you buy me a car?"
Chi Yan took her hand and walked out the door, "I just want you to drive and pick me up from work later." In fact, he just wanted to buy it for her.
They went to the parking lot, and next to Chi Yan's car, there was a new car, a pink Maserati.
Chi Yan opened the car door, "Try it out?"
Chu Yang tapped his head, "Next time you buy something expensive, remember to tell me."
Chi Yan nodded, but he always let it go in one ear and out the other.
Chu Yang sat in the driver's seat, and Chi Yan opened the other door and got into the passenger seat, fastening his seatbelt, "Shall we take a spin?"
Chu Yang nodded and started driving the car...
There were many luxury cars in Jing City, so the one she was driving didn't stand out too much, except for its bright pink color. On the way, some people stopped to take photos of it. After driving around for a while, they stopped to eat barbecue for a late-night snack before heading home.
The security guards of their residential area looked at them enviously as they entered. This homeowner is really rich, handsome, with a beautiful girlfriend. A true winner in life.
It was almost 12 o'clock when they got home. Chu Yang hadn't finished her assignments, but it wasn't urgent. She could do them tomorrow.
As they lay in bed, Chi Yan hugged her and said, "I'll depend on you from now on."
Chu Yang: ?
Chi Yan: "Pick me up from work when you have time."
Chu Yang asked curiously, "Is the company very busy lately? It seems like you've been going there often. What about your studies at the university?"
Chi Yan: "I've already mastered that knowledge. As long as I complete the assignments given by the professors, they don't mind me going to the company. In fact, they support me because what we learn is meant to be put into practice, and that's what I'm doing."
Chu Yang poked his cheek, "That's what the Versailles Master said about you."
Chi Yan smiled and shared his plan, "I plan to complete all my credits this semester, and after that, I'll probably be at the company more often. Sorry, I might not be able to accompany you to the library to study as often."
Chu Yang didn't mind, "It's okay. Work hard." She smiled, "I'll depend on you from now on."
Chi Yan was delighted and snuggled closer, "Don't I get a reward?"
Chu Yang gave him a big kiss, making Chi Yan even happier. He pulled the sheets over them and whined playfully, "I want more."
...
Since the car was bought, it had to be driven. Two days later, Chi Yan asked Chu Yang to drive and pick him up from work. Chu Yang didn't have classes that afternoon, so she drove over. The pink Maserati moved steadily through the traffic, crossing the main road and turning onto a smaller street. It was a two-way street, and Chu Yang was driving in the front when suddenly she felt something was wrong...
With a "swoosh" sound, Chu Yang stopped the car abruptly, nearly causing the car behind her to crash into her. The other driver immediately honked and cursed, "What are you doing!"
"Honk honk honk!" The sound of car horns filled the air.
But Chu Yang didn't move. Something was wrong up ahead! She couldn't drive any further!
The Audi driver behind her saw that the Maserati ahead wasn't moving, so he got out of his car to see what was going on. Who was being so reckless as to block the road? As he approached, he saw it was a beautiful young lady. Well, since she was a beautiful lady, he should be gentle.
"Hey, beauty!"
But Chu Yang didn't look at him. She was counting down, "3, 2, 1..."
"Rumble!" A terrifying sound startled the Audi driver. He looked ahead and saw a huge sinkhole had suddenly appeared in the middle of the previously smooth road! The Audi driver was too shocked to speak, and he felt a chill down his spine, his whole body stiffening...
At this speed, both he and the Maserati would have been fine, but what about the line of cars behind them?
The incident quickly drew the attention of people nearby, and Chu Yang had already calmly called for help.
The drivers behind them were still honking their horns incessantly.
The driver who had been standing by Chu Yang's car door immediately regained his senses, rushed to the back, and shouted, "Stop honking! There's been an accident ahead, the road has sunk!"
The drivers behind soon learned what had happened. Some felt a chill down their spines, realizing that at this time, it could have been them falling into the hole. Some got out of their cars and rushed to the front to see. Damn! What a huge sinkhole! If they had fallen in... the consequences would have been unimaginable!
Five minutes later, the traffic police arrived. They first blocked off the road, then started removing the barriers on one side to allow the stranded cars to make a U-turn and take another route.
Chu Yang checked the time. Taking the detour would make her late.
On the other side, Chi Yan was wondering why Chu Yang hadn't arrived yet after he got off work, so he called her.
"I'm driving, I'll be there soon. Wait for me."
"Okay, no rush. Drive safely."
"Mmm."
About fifteen minutes later, Chu Yang finally arrived and called Chi Yan.
When Chi Yan got in the car, Chu Yang told him about the sinkhole incident, "So today we'll have to take another route home. It probably won't be fixed by tomorrow. If you're going to work, remember to take a different route. Oh, did you leave your car at the company? Should I drop you off in the morning?"
Chi Yan shook his head, "Tomorrow, the assistant will come and pick me up in my car. By the way, I may need to go on a business trip to Cangrong City for two days tomorrow."
"Then I'll go back and pack some things for you."
"Okay."
When the Audi owner returned home today, he told his family, "Wife, I met a divine person today."
His wife was folding clothes absentmindedly, "What's up?"
"When I was coming back, I passed through that section of Maple Leaf Road, right? Today, it collapsed! Originally, there was a Maserati in front of me, and it was driving just fine but suddenly stopped! I almost crashed into it. She just stopped and didn't move, so I thought about getting out to ask if her hand was broken, or her leg, or if she was sick or something. Then I heard her murmuring '321,' and after that, the ground collapsed! I was really scared at the time."
The Audi owner still seemed quite frightened as he recounted the story.
"If it wasn't for her, I might have been fine, but I don't know about the drivers behind me. A divine person!"
