Mr. Cao was startled and then realized that it was a call from his assistant.
He barely steadied his soul before he answered and started shouting, "Didn't you just leave? Why are you calling me again? Don't you know the doctor is checking on me?!"
"Boss... we've had a car accident..." came the weak voice of the assistant from the other end of the phone.
"What..." Mr. Cao stiffened suddenly.
The assistant said in a panic, "We, we don't know what happened, but as soon as the car turned onto the avenue, we had an accident. It seems like the brakes failed. Luckily, we're all mostly okay, but boss, the young master's engagement party... we might not make it..."
Mr. Cao: "..."
The content of the text message from Xia Xin suddenly flashed through his mind.
Heavens, there really are such strange things in this world!
...
At the same time.
Jiangli and Xia Xin finished shopping and took a cab back to Jiaoyang Temple.
