Gong Zi Chuo Chuo

Chapter 326 Lying Through One's Teeth

"Where are the police?"

She had heard the alarm while in the emergency room. What if her elder brother and Rong Jingyang were arrested?

This was a headache!

"Sir, the police have been communicated with. Everything is fine now," Addis reported.

Upon hearing this, Du Ruoxin secretly breathed a sigh of relief. If the police weren't pursuing charges, they wouldn't go to jail. But—

"What about the person who was shot? Are they out of danger?" she asked urgently.

Trevor: "Still in surgery."

Cristiano did not want unimportant people occupying Du Ruoxin's thoughts. He said coldly, "They won't die."

As his personal bodyguard, one had to be prepared to take bullets and potentially lose their life at any moment.

Cristiano leaned against the wall, glancing at her sideways. "How did the car end up in the river? Did someone hit you?"

If he found out who it was, he would definitely kill them!

Just now, Cristiano had ordered his subordinates to return to the accident scene to salvage the vehicle.

"No," Du Ruoxin shook her head and explained, "The navigation said there was a temple in the mountains, and it's very effective for praying for marriage."

"I wanted to..." she glanced at her elder brother, her voice instinctively lowering a few decibels, "pray for you."

Cristiano: "...Hmm?"

Du Ruoxin avoided looking at her elder brother's gloomy expression and continued with the story she had already fabricated. "Who knew the car flipped halfway there."

"Brother, is there a problem with your car's artificial intelligence?"

"I just remember I was tired, activated the autopilot, and wanted to rest. There was a pile of falling rocks blocking the road ahead."

"I saw the distance on the display screen seemed passable, so I didn't pay attention."

"And then it flipped."

"Fortunately, the slope wasn't high, and the current wasn't strong. If the slope was higher or the current was stronger, you wouldn't have seen me again."

After speaking, Du Ruoxin patted her chest in lingering fear.

Cristiano remembered the scene of her in the mountains, his aura suddenly sharpening. "Which model car were you driving?"

Du Ruoxin: "Aurora 5."

Cristiano: ...It wasn't the new car he was preparing to launch?

Du Ruoxin pitifully raised her hand. "Alas, I don't know when this swelling will go down."

"And my feet..."

She wiggled her fair and delicate feet.

Cristiano looked at Addis with a cold face. "New car launch, postponed!"

If Xin'er's hands or feet were left with scars, this car would never see the light of day!

He would smash it!

Addis: ...

What?

Had he misheard?

The new car launch event, originally scheduled for three days later, wasn't it just around the corner?

Postponing delivery would incur breach of contract penalties!

"Sir..." Was he experiencing tinnitus or auditory hallucinations?

The old man could hardly believe it.

Boss, even if you are immensely wealthy, rich enough to rival a nation, you don't squander it like this.

Cristiano said with irrefutable authority, "Go arrange it!"

Addis: No, that's...

He couldn't agree to this!

The old man looked at Trevor in bewilderment. Trevor shook his head, indicating he was unable to help and sincerely gestured for him to seek help from Du Ruoxin.

Addis rolled his eyes and looked at Du Ruoxin. Du Ruoxin averted her gaze, pretending not to see him.

Actually, she wanted to say: "Old man, why don't you consider looking at cars from the Rong Group?"

But now wasn't the right time. Later!

Fan Yinghao, who had taken in everyone's expressions, was confused.

Why did he always feel like something was wrong?

Instinctively, he looked at Rong Jingyang.

Rong Jingyang also frowned slightly—he didn't believe a single word Du Ruoxin had said.

Praying for marriage?

Nonsense!

When his wife lied, she could blow the sky away!

"Du Ruoxin," the man called out.

She: "Ah?"

For some reason, as soon as she met Rong Jingyang's all-knowing eyes, she felt a little guilty.

Du Ruoxin tried her best not to show any flaws. "What is it?"

Rong Jingyang beckoned. "Come here."
