“Squeak——”
The tires made a harsh sound due to strong friction with the ground due to the sudden stop.
Tong Jing’s hands received Tan Li’s order faster than her brain, and she braked suddenly and stopped.
”What, what happened?” Her heart was pounding.
Fortunately, there are almost no cars on this road to the suburbs, otherwise her move just now might have caused a chain reaction!
Tong Jing naturally didn’t think that this was Tan Li’s problem. She just felt that she was not calm enough and not composed enough when faced with things, which put Tan Li in such invisible danger.
The worried Tan Li had a gloomy face. She quickly got out of the back seat, opened the driver’s door, and pulled Tong Jing out.
”Wait here.”
After saying that, he stepped on the accelerator.
Before Tong Jing could react, she was dragged out of the driver’s seat by Tan Li. She had already seen the car, which usually drove smoothly under her control, speed away at an unimaginable speed just because a new driver was hired.
Tong Jing’s heart instantly rose to her throat.
When she first became Tan Li’s assistant, Tan Pei had approached her privately.
But at that time, she felt that Tan Pei’s words were hinting that she should report Tan Li’s situation to him privately, and she was secretly unhappy about it.
She didn’t grow up in a wealthy family, so she didn’t understand whether fathers in wealthy families always expressed their concerns for their daughters in such a strange way.
But, when she thought about the problems of her own family of origin…
Tong Jing knew very well that not every parent would love their children unconditionally, so she rejected Tan Pei’s request at that time.
It was Tan Li who gave her the money, and it was also Tan Li who pulled her back from the brink of despair, so she only recognized Tan Li as her boss.
Afterwards, Tan Pei sent her a document.
It records some precautions for talking about Li, one of which is –
Although Tan Li has a driver’s license, she has never driven on the road since she passed the test!
And now, a driver who is so new that he can’t be any newer, Tan Li, is stepping on the accelerator at almost 180 miles per hour and rushing straight forward. How can this not be scary!
Tong Jing even subconsciously wanted to search what the penalty for speeding violations was.
But unlike her fear and trepidation, Tan Li drove at an incredibly fast speed, but at the same time, incredibly steady.
In just a moment, she drifted through two bends and caught up with the low-key black car in front.
Then–
With a “bang”.
Tong Jing’s eyes went dark.
What did she see?!
Tan Li actually hit someone’s car!
Tong Jing had forgotten Tan Li’s instructions to wait where she was, and she immediately dialed 120 while trembling and ran in the direction of Tan Li.
At this time, Tan Li——
It was not enough for her to hit someone else’s car once, she actually hit the black car repeatedly, even overtook it, blocked the other car with her body, and forced it to stop.
Tong Jing: !!!
She felt that her heart was no longer beating faster, but was about to stop.
What should I do? What should I do?
Tong Jing had never encountered such a thing before. For a moment, all she could think about was whether she should hire a lawyer, call the police, call the insurance company, or notify her boss’s parents.
What a mess.
Unlike her, Tan Li, the culprit, calmly got out of the car that was tattered in the collision, and she opened the back door of the other car.
”Bang–“
The metal car door fell to the ground with a dull sound.
”Are you okay?” Tan Li bent down and looked at the people in the car.
There were two elderly people in the back seat. They were obviously frightened and hugged each other tightly. When they saw Tan Li sticking her head in, they trembled uncontrollably.
Like two frightened little rabbits.
Tan Li looked them up and down, and was relieved to see that the two men had no external injuries except being frightened.
After confirming this, she turned to the driver’s seat, pried open the door with her bare hands, and pulled the person inside out.
When Tong Jing arrived breathlessly, Tan Li was performing CPR on someone.
She was wearing a tight and graceful luxurious long dress and ten-inch high heels. Her hands, neck and ears were all covered with heavy jewelry. Let alone squatting, even bending her knees should have been difficult.
There were still scratches on the ground caused by the collision of the two cars. Both cars were in tatters and were emitting light smoke. The car hit by Tan Li was even missing two doors, and the glass was shattered all over the ground.
But Tan Li seemed not to be affected at all.
She was concentrating on performing cardiopulmonary resuscitation on a middle-aged man, as if this was not an accident scene but a hospital’s emergency center.
”Yes, the ring road, the location should be…” Tong Jing then noticed that the silver-haired old man next to her was on the phone.
Tong Jing:!
”Hello, Grandpa!” Tong Jing stepped forward quickly. “I know my boss accidentally hit your car. We can accept any compensation. Please don’t call the police first, okay?”
She knew she shouldn’t say such things, but…
Tong Jing was so anxious that she almost cried.
If she hadn’t put that old neighborhood on the list and recommended it to Tan Li, how could such an accident have happened!
“Found it!”
Suddenly, an elderly female voice interrupted.
A silver-haired old lady appeared from behind the car and handed a bottle of medicine to Tan Li, who was still kneeling and performing CPR. “This should be his medicine. Do you want to give it to him?”
”Let’s give it a try.” Tan Li quickly took the medicine bottle, glanced at the instructions, and stuffed two pills into the middle-aged man’s mouth.
Then–
”Water.” The silver-haired old lady seemed to know what she wanted and had already prepared it and handed it to her.
Tan Li took the water bottle and poured it into the middle-aged man’s mouth.
The posture for injecting medicine was the same as her posture for CPR, and she was so skilled as if she had done it countless times.
After a while, perhaps due to the effect of the medicine or the cardiopulmonary resuscitation, the middle-aged man’s face finally regained a hint of color.
The faint breathing sound was a little more obvious than before.
”Don’t worry, little girl.” Tong Jing was still a little confused about the current situation, and the silver-haired old man had already put down his phone, “I’m calling the emergency team over.”
”As for calling the police…” He smiled gently, “Your boss saved our lives, and we didn’t even have time to thank her, so why would we call the police?”
Tong Jing was stunned.
”Call the police.” Tan Li’s voice sounded from behind, “This is the scene of the accident. We should hand it over to the police.”
Although she has been staying in the lawless and powerful Infinite Flow world, Tan Li feels that now that she has returned to the real world, she should follow the rules of the real world.
”There’s also compensation for the damage to your car. Xiaotong, please follow up on that.”
The silver-haired grandfather and the old lady smiled even more deeply after hearing what she said.
Grandpa: “Little girl, we are old, not stupid.”
”Do you think we can’t see that you just stopped our car to save us?”
”Yes.” The old lady also said, “If you hadn’t stopped the car today, my husband and I would have been in big trouble.”
Tong Jing became more and more confused as she listened, “What you mean is…”
She looked at Tan Li in surprise, “Boss, you just hit their car on purpose!”
Tan Li nodded slightly.
”No matter what the purpose or result is, the harm caused in the process is a fact,” Tan Li did not think that she could ignore the harm caused by the means she used just because she saved the lives of two elderly people. “The compensation should still be paid.”
The old man and the old lady smiled at each other and said nothing more.
”But you are really amazing, little girl,” the old lady asked Tan Li with a smile, “How did you know that our car had a problem?”
Tan Li looked at the two old people with an inexplicable familiarity and explained, “The track your car was driving was not right. It was obvious that there was something wrong with the person in the driver’s seat.”
As for a more detailed explanation, Tan Li was unable to give one.
The question is based on experience. It can be seen, but cannot be explained.
The old lady nodded as if she understood, “Little girl, you are really amazing.”
”Great!” The old man also gave her a thumbs up.
It was rare that Tan Li felt a little embarrassed.
Maybe it’s because I haven’t seen an old person of this age for too long. Although according to the actual years of life, she may be much older than the two people in front of me, but…
Peace and tranquility represent the wrinkles of time, the gray and silver hair of youth that can never return, and the gentle eyes full of life experience, which give Tan Li a feeling of tranquility and peace.
”You two are amazing.” Tan Li gave two thumbs up. “Most people would be scared to death by my brutal methods.”
When the old man and the old lady heard her say this, they couldn’t help but burst out laughing.
The ambulance and the police were slow to arrive, so the two sides began to chat intermittently.
Grandpa: “The little girl is from Jiangcheng, right? You can tell at a glance that she is a beauty from here.”
”It doesn’t really count,” Tan Li replied, “I just moved to Jiangcheng recently.”
“I grew up in the next town over.”
”Oh!” The old lady suddenly thought of something, “Little girl, your car doesn’t look cheap. You broke your car to save us, and you still want to compensate us. I think it should be me who should compensate you!”
Tan Li couldn’t help but laugh, “It’s okay, my family has plenty of money, we don’t need a car.”
This might seem arrogant to others, but when Tan Li said it, it sounded like good intentions to the old man and his wife.
”You old people are the ones who need to go to the hospital for a full-body check-up later,” Tan Li said. “Whether you need mental compensation for being frightened or medical compensation for something wrong with your body, just tell me. You don’t have to save money for me.”
Tong Jing at the side: …Although I know the boss is rich, it is still quite rare for her to be so eager to pay compensation.
For Tan Li, the most important thing is to spend money happily and satisfactorily.
She felt that the two old people were kind, so she naturally wanted to spend more money.
But the old man was too honest and didn’t even seize such a good opportunity to scam someone.
Grandpa: “Little girl, you are looking down on us old couple. We are in good health and will not be frightened by such a small thing.”
”Yes.” The old lady immediately added, “Little girl, your car is more valuable. You have paid for our new car in order to save our lives. We are not ignorant and ungrateful. We must pay for the car today!”
”This car is just a small amount of money. I can change one every day without any problem. If I lose my reputation as a rich woman, where will you put it?”
”We are old but healthy. If you lose, how can we save our dignity?”
”No! I have to pay!”
”No! We should be the ones to pay for it!”
…
Seeing that Tan Liyi was able to fight against two heroes without losing, Tong Jing could hardly close her mouth.
What? Is today’s compensation too hot or too cold? Are you playing the game of passing the parcel?
”Dad! Mom!”
Suddenly, an anxious call came from a distance, and Tan Li was stunned.
