I Became A Hit After My Divorce! Chapter 168

168 Not an Accident

“When you were unconscious, the police came twice.” Han Xiangdong looked indignant. “They said that they would come over to take your statement after you woke up.”

“Yes.” Le Yao nodded, but she had a feeling that things were not that simple, especially since the side profile she had seen previously kept flas.h.i.+ng through her mind.

“That driver died on the spot. Preliminarily, he was said to be a drunk driver, but it hasn’t been confirmed yet.” Han Xiangdong sighed. “However…”

“After Shen Yi took you away, the car exploded, affecting a few cars parked by the roadside. Fortunately, there were no casualties, but…” Han Xiangdong frowned.” There’s someone in the house that the big truck hit…”

“Did they die?” Le Yao’s heart skipped a beat.

“Yes.” Han Xiangdong nodded. “The police said that a couple who came to Xiling City to work lived there. They brought a two-year-old child with them. When the house was knocked down, the couple protected the child under them and…”

“How is it?” Le Yao felt a lump in her throat.

“The couple is dead, but the child is still alive. However, we’ve already informed their relatives. The child is temporarily being raised in the welfare home…”

Although Le Yao did not say anything else, she felt exceptionally uncomfortable.

At this moment, the ward door was pushed open and Nangong Jue walked in with a very ugly expression.

Le Yao frowned.

“Get out.” Nangong Jue glanced at Han Xiangdong.

Han Xiangdong didn’t go out. Instead, he approached the bed and looked at the other party warily.

Le Yao’s heart warmed. This big brother was really good. He treated Han Binglan very well. Unfortunately, Han Binglan did not cherish him in the past and was devoted to love. Fortunately, after she came, she had already changed the fate of the Han family. In the future, she naturally hoped that everyone would get better.

“You’re the one who should go out.” Le Yao didn’t want to see anyone give her brother a hard time. “This is my ward.”

“You…” Nangong Jue wanted to flare up, but when he met Le Yao’s cold eyes, he suddenly deflated and his att.i.tude softened. “I have something to tell you.”

“Say it. My brother is not an outsider.” Le Yao would not let him have his way.

Nangong Jue frowned, but he didn’t chase him away. Instead, he took a step forward. “How are you?”

“I’m good as long as you don’t make me angry.”

“You…” Nangong Jue’s eyes widened in disbelief.

“If you have something to say, say it.” Le Yao was a little frustrated. “If you don’t have anything to say, leave.”

“Okay.” Nangong Jue took a deep breath and told himself not to be angry. “Did you offend anyone?”

“What do you mean?” Le Yao frowned. “Did you find anything?”

Nangong Jue glanced at Han Xiangdong.

“My brother is trustworthy and the closest person to me.”

Han Xiangdong smiled. It felt good to be trusted by his sister.

“Alright.” Nangong Jue secretly took a deep breath. “The police haven’t announced this yet, but the results of the driver’s autopsy are out. The alcohol content in his stomach is very low, so he can’t be drunk. Moreover… that person is already in the late stages of liver cancer. Even if he doesn’t die now, he won’t be able to live for long…”

“If it wasn’t an accident, it was murder?” Han Xiangdong’s expression changed.

“There’s no conclusion for the time being, but I’ll investigate too.” Nangong Jue glanced at Han Xiangdong. “Now, Lan, I want to ask you if you offended anyone.”
