Chapter 2132: Chapter 2132: Eighteenth Coming-of-Age Ceremony (14)
"Oh, you haven’t married him yet, and you’re already playing the role of the perfect partner." Yu Rou rubbed her shoulder, sounding a bit sarcastic.
Ruan Jiaojiao smiled, not taking it to heart. Once the hotel staff placed all ten dishes in the car, she thanked them and got into Yu Rou’s car.
Yu Rou’s family wasn’t short on money either. She got her driver’s license right after graduating high school, and her family bought her an ADtt car, which was quite expensive. It looked stylish and superior, even better than the one Duan Qianyang bought her for her engagement to Duan Xi.
Ruan Jiaojiao, after getting in, said admiringly, "This car looks so nice." It was just a bit too expensive. She had managed to gather a million for Duan Xi’s startup fund, thinking she was quite wealthy, until she found out Yu Rou’s car cost over five hundred thousand.
"Do you like it? We can drive it together in the future. Anyway, I won’t have much time later. Once you graduate from college, if you need a car, feel free to use it!" Yu Rou said generously.
Ruan Jiaojiao rested her chin on her hand and said, "Probably continue studying for a master’s degree."
"Oh, that’s fine too. If you ever want to drive it, just come to me."
Ruan Jiaojiao laughed, "I don’t even have a driver’s license yet." She wanted to take the test but hadn’t reached the legal age.
"That’s not a big deal! If you don’t want to take the test, I can find someone to get you one. It’s easy and cheap." Yu Rou said casually, turning a corner.
Upon hearing this, Ruan Jiaojiao felt her face tighten and gripped her seatbelt fearfully, "Xiaorou, don’t tell me you bought your driver’s license!"
"Hahahahaha..." Yu Rou laughed and was about to say she was joking when suddenly a child dashed out in front of them, her pupils dilated in shock, and Ruan Jiaojiao also saw the child running out and screamed, "Brake, brake!"
But Yu Rou was too nervous. Instead of hitting the brake, she accidentally pressed the accelerator. Ruan Jiaojiao turned pale in fright, covering her eyes.
"Bang!" a sound of something being hit and flying off.
"Bang, bang, bang..." followed by a series of crashing sounds, and finally the car stopped when it hit the roadside tree. The two were jolted forward due to inertia and bounced back into their seats, Ruan Jiaojiao’s whole back aching from the impact.
Inside the car, everything went quiet.
Ruan Jiaojiao could almost hear her own heartbeat, thump, thump, thump.
Beside her, Yu Rou was petrified, crying, "Jiaojiao, did I kill someone..."
Ruan Jiaojiao didn’t know. She cautiously opened her hands and looked towards the front of the car. There were no bloodstains on the windshield, and a tree stood in front of them. They started to hear voices outside, chattering.
"What happened?"
"Did they kill someone?"
"Quickly call 120, quick, there are two girls inside."
"..."
Ruan Jiaojiao saw anxious faces outside, hearing them wonder if someone was killed. Her legs felt weak as she unfastened her seatbelt, stumbled getting out of the car, and a kindly woman immediately supported her.
"Oh dear, are you okay, young lady?" the woman asked concernedly.
Ruan Jiaojiao shook her head wildly and looked back at the place they had just driven past. But she saw no bloodstains or any signs, just nothing at all?
She leaned against the car and walked forward, running to the front. All she saw was the car’s hood dented against the tree, nothing else.
