Wen Ran looked at Qin Mu in shock: “There’s been an accident at the construction site? I’ll go with you to check it out.”
Qin Mu instantly frowned, refusing her without a second thought: “No, the rain is getting heavier, and the construction site is definitely chaotic now, it’s not safe for you.”
“What kind of accident happened?”
Wen Ran turned to look out the window, actually, the rain wasn’t that heavy.
Even if it got worse, she wouldn’t mind it now. The Commercial Trade Building project was crucial for MS Group. If an accident happened, it would not only attract the media, various relevant departments would also intervene.
Currently, with Mo Xiuchen abroad, despite being left in charge of the project by Qin Mu, stepping in after a casualty occurred would likely be troublesome.
As Mo Xiuchen’s wife and the first lady of MS Group, she could not ignore this.
“Due to operational errors, two workers fell from the tower crane.”
“Mr. Qin, we’re at the intersection, should we stop?”
Qing Yang asked from the driver’s seat.
“Qin Mu, such a serious accident, you alone definitely won’t be able to handle it. If you don’t want me to follow, let Qing Yang and Qing Feng accompany you, I’ll get out of the car ahead.”
Qin Mu instinctively wanted to refuse, but seeing Wen Ran’s resolute face, hesitating emerged in his eyes. Knowing Wen Ran’s character, with such a big incident, even if he told her not to, she would likely still follow.
“Alright, you can come along, but no matter what happens, you are not allowed to get out of the car.”
“Okay!”
Wen Ran agreed, they could decide what to do based on the situation when they arrive.
She could imagine that the construction site would certainly be in chaos at the moment.
The more anxious, the slower things go. As soon as the car turned into the next lane, it hit a traffic jam. Looking at the long line of cars, Qin Mu’s brows knitted in frustration. After waiting a few minutes, he ordered Qing Yang something, opened the car door, got out, and started to run.
Wen Ran was also anxious.
Looking down, Qin Mu’s tall figure ran out of sight, she said in a deep voice: “Qing Yang, when you get to the front, go into that alley to take a shortcut.”
This traffic jam was going to take who knows how long.
And she knew the alley ahead. After a few turns, it would bring them much closer than this main road.
“Okay, Miss Wen.”
The cars ahead were moving at a snail’s pace, Qing Yang also gradually inched forward. Arriving at the alley Wen Ran had mentioned, he made the turn. Though the road wasn’t as wide as the main road, it wasn’t too narrow, mainly there were very few vehicles in the alleyway.
Under Wen Ran’s guidance, the business car turned left and right, before Qing Yang got dizzy, the business car got back onto the main road from another intersection, narrowly avoiding the congested road section.
Wen Ran called Qin Mu, who was still behind them. After waiting a few minutes, Qin Mu finally caught up.
“Take off your coat, it’s soaked.”
Wen Ran handed Qin Mu a dry towel to wipe his face. His forehead was covered either with raindrops or sweat from running.
Qin Mu took the towel, removed his coat, then asked: “Which route did you take?”
“Miss Wen had me take a shortcut through some alleys. Thankfully Miss Wen was familiar with the route, otherwise, we might have been stuck wandering that maze of an alley for half the day.”
Qing Feng replied amicably, he had nearly gotten dizzy just now from all those twists and turns in the alley.
“Alleys? Weren’t you afraid that the smaller road would be more congested?”
Qin Mu paused his head wiping for a moment, glanced at Wen Ran. She raised her eyebrows confidently and said: “When we were stuck in traffic, I noticed that no cars were entering the alleyways. I happen to be familiar with this area. Even though the roads there are narrower, it was completely clear of traffic.”
“Makes sense.”
If they hadn’t taken the alleyway shortcut, they would surely still be stuck in traffic.
“Qing Yang, park the car up ahead.”
There was still some distance from the construction site, Qin Mu suddenly spoke. His striking eyebrows wrinkled from a distance and a hint of gloom filled his eyes.
There were many people at the construction site, and it was very chaotic.
Reporters, police, even people from related departments had arrived.
But the loudest noise was the cries!
The wailing of family members, coupled with arguing voices, mixed with the not so quiet but bone-chilling rain, the scene looked miserable.
He withdrew his gaze and looked towards Wen Ran sitting next to him: “At times like these, family members are often irrational and incidents can easily occur. You stay in the car for now and don’t get out.”
“Alright, you be careful.”
Wen Ran was also looking at the construction site through the car window. There were so many people, the mix of different noises made her feel heavy.
Qing Yang parked the car quite far away. Before Qin Mu got out of the car he instructed him: “Lock the car doors.”
“Qin Mu, let Qing Feng go with you, Qing Yang can stay in the car with me.”
As soon as Wen Ran spoke, Qing Feng nodded immediately, not waiting for Qin Mu to refuse, he opened the passenger side door and jumped out of the car.
Qin Mu and Qing Feng got out of the car and hastily headed towards the construction site.
In the car, Wen Ran furrowed her brows, looking worriedly out of the car window. As Qin Mu approached, people started to surround him. Although they were standing quite a distance away, their angry voices penetrated through the car window and reached Wen Ran’s ears.
“Are you responsible for the engineering?”
“Don’t bother talking it out with him. They have no conscience. They’ve been eaten alive by dogs. We don’t want money, we want his life.”
Wen Ran’s eyes tightened, and her heart jumped into her throat.
Seeing one of them pick up a brick and aimed it at Qin Mu’s head, policemen quickly rushed in. In the dim rain, Qin Mu’s tall figure stood upright, his eyes casting a fierce look at the man holding the brick, his voice was cold and severe: “I dare any of you to lay a hand on me!”
The man with the brick shook, he was intimidated by Qin Mu’s fierce look and the chilling aura, hesitating, he roared fiercely: “You owe me my brother’s life!”
Qin Mu ignored his anger, turned to look a few meters away, where the bodies of the deceased were laying. There were women and children crying bitterly nearby.
“I will certainly give you all an explanation.”
“What explanation, just now, that dog of a supervisor said it wasn’t his responsibility… ”
Qin Mu’s gaze darkened, his voice as cold as before: “The cause of the accident requires time to investigate. However, who made that statement just now, where is he?”
“He’s on the way to the hospital.”
One of them glared furiously at Qin Mu. The man who said it wasn’t his fault was beaten nearly to death by them. At the time, the police hadn’t arrived yet, so there was no one to stop them.
“Miss Wen, Mr. Qin will be okay. You don’t need to worry.”
Qing Yang looked at Qin Mu being led into the crowd. Despite the many people, his tall figure was striking and prominent, easily noticeable at a glance.
Wen Ran let out a long sigh, her heart slightly relaxed.
The phone in her bag suddenly rang. She withdrawn her gaze, lowered her head to answer her phone.
As soon as she picked it up, before she even answered, Qing Yang suddenly cried out: “Miss Wen, Mr. Qin, he… ”
