God of Racing-Chapter 431 - 424

Yu Sangwan hadn’t closed her eyes the whole night, imagining if it would be like those TV dramas where the police force a confession overnight. But that didn’t happen.

On the contrary, the police were very polite, and it felt like she had just spent the night in an unfamiliar place. Before dawn, they had her sign her release.

The moment she stepped out, she saw Le Zhengsheng.

"Wanwan!" Le Zhengsheng ran over from the opposite side, almost getting hit by the passing cars.

Seeing him like this, Yu Sangwan’s eyes instantly reddened, "Le Zheng! Be careful..."

"I’m fine!" Le Zhengsheng shook his head with a smile, dashing through the vehicles and standing before Yu Sangwan, hardly able to believe his eyes, "Let me see... Am I seeing things? Is it really you? Little Wanwan... you’re out?"

Yu Sangwan bit her lower lip and nodded slightly.

Her gaze fell upon his face...

"Your face?" Yu Sangwan couldn’t help but be surprised, raising her hand towards his cheek, "What happened? Why is it all bruised and swollen? Ah... your lip, it’s bleeding! Did you get into a fight?"

"Hiss..." Le Zhengsheng winced in pain, his handsome features scrunched together, yet he maintained a smile. "The old man at my home hit me. I’m his only heir, and he always holds back when he hits. It looks scary, but really... I wasn’t truly hurt! Really!"

Yu Sangwan lowered her head, murmuring, "It’s because of me..."

"Wanwan." Le Zhengsheng rarely put away his playful smile, "Don’t feel bad, I did it willingly..."

Yu Sangwan fished a tissue out from her pocket and leaned towards Le Zhengsheng, "Don’t move, let me clean the blood... You’re too much, why didn’t you apply some medicine? At least disinfect it and put on a band-aid..."

"I..." Le Zhengsheng lowered his eyes to look at her. Her concern and anxiety for him made his heart race uncontrollably, and he instinctively held her hand, "I was worried about you... afraid that you were here crying alone."

Yu Sangwan glanced at him and couldn’t help but laugh, "Tch... Am I that weak? I didn’t cry afterward."

"Really?" Le Zhengsheng grinned wide, "That’s great."

"Le Zheng." Yu Sangwan put away her smile, gratefully saying, "Thank you, I wouldn’t have been released so quickly without you... It’s a lie to say I’m not scared. Now that I’m out, I can finally breathe a sigh of relief."

"..." Le Zhengsheng’s smile froze. What did she just say? Thank him?

What’s going on? Does she think she got out so quickly because of him?

Yu Sangwan carefully wiped the blood from his lips, murmuring, "Because of me, you even let your dad hit you..."

"..." Le Zhengsheng was completely taken aback, she really misunderstood.

Should he explain? Le Zhengsheng was in a deep struggle within... If he tells her, will she no longer care for him the way she does now? Her affectionate treatment towards him was unprecedented, a significant progress for their relationship.

In the end... he couldn’t bear to tell the truth.

Le Zhengsheng raised an eyebrow and laughed heartily, leaning in towards her.

"Ah..." Yu Sangwan was startled, instinctively bending backward.

"Careful!" Le Zhengsheng swiftly reached out, catching her around the waist and scolding, "Why are you dodging?"

"I..." Yu Sangwan’s gaze shifted evasively, how could she admit that... she was afraid he’d kiss her?

Guessing her thoughts, Le Zhengsheng toned down his smile and sighed, "It’s alright, you’re inching closer to me anyway. One day, I’ll kiss you."

"..." Yu Sangwan became flustered, feeling like his jokes were slowly turning into reality.

Seeing her so tense, Le Zhengsheng loosened his hands intentionally shouting, "Oh! Someone’s about to fall!"

"Ah..." Yu Sangwan, losing her balance, reached out to grab onto Le Zhengsheng in fright.

Seizing the moment, Le Zhengsheng bent down, letting her arms wrap around his neck, bringing them face to face, breathing the same air—it was a heart-pounding closeness.

"Haha..." Le Zhengsheng achieved his mischief, laughing out loud, "You’re so clumsy!"

Yu Sangwan, still rattled, glared up at him, "What are you doing? You scared me!"

"Wanwan." Le Zhengsheng embraced her tightly, his gaze turning earnest, "I won’t let go of you... Give me a chance, and I’ll treat you better than Lu Jinxuan ever did."

"..." Yu Sangwan was stunned, panic flooding her as she tried to push Le Zhengsheng away.

But Le Shengzheng held onto her, "Wanwan, give me a chance, okay? I’m serious, not joking around..."

Yu Sangwan, feeling overwhelmed, mumbled some nonsense, "Yeah! Seriously, taking me back to be your concubine?"

"No." Le Zhengsheng shook his head, seriously saying, "As long as you say yes, I’ll marry you! As the Young Madam of the Lezheng Family, Le Zheng’s wife, do you agree?"

The world... seemed to stand still...

From the nearby car, Tang Yueze dared not breathe.

Lu Jinxuan and his group were hurrying over, but they were still a step too late. Watching Yu Sangwan and Le Zhengsheng embracing, Lu Jinxuan’s face turned grim, the entire car feeling isolated and chillingly cold.

"..." Tang Yueze moved his lips but still didn’t dare to speak.

Lu Jinxuan tightened his lips, retracting his gaze, "Let’s go!"

"Young Master!" Tang Yueze was anxious and tried to persuade, "If you do this, Miss Yu won’t know! Whether it’s about Miss Mu or today... She needs to know you’re good to her! Girls are creatures who are easily touched, and you’re doing..."

"Shut up!" Lu Jinxuan was furious, "Unnecessary!"

This kind of ungrateful woman, who turns around and gets all lovey-dovey with another man... he has no interest! Nor would he want her!

"Let’s go!"

"Yes." Tang Yueze could only drive away helplessly.

In the hospital, Mu Qinglan had already woken up; after all this, she looked even weaker than before.

After the doctor finished the examination, Lu Jinxuan sat by the bedside.

"Is there anywhere else you feel uncomfortable?"

Mu Qinglan shook her head, smiling slightly, "I’m fine now..."

She seemed to remember something and suddenly said, "By the way, what about Miss Yu? She was with me that day, is she okay?"

Lu Jinxuan reassured her, "She’s fine, she didn’t drink the soup..."

"Oh! That’s good." Mu Qinglan breathed a sigh of relief and looked at Lu Jinxuan intentionally or unintentionally, "Have you found out what happened? That day, only Miss Yu and I were in the kitchen, my legs went numb, and all the ingredients were handled by Miss Yu... She couldn’t possibly be the problem, who could have poisoned it?"

Lu Jinxuan frowned, feeling something wasn’t quite right.

Mu Qinglan continued, "It’s strange! I was sitting by the door the whole time, and I didn’t see anyone suspicious... Could it be... ah, no, it definitely wouldn’t be Miss Yu!"

"Qinglan." Lu Jinxuan frowned, interrupting her, "You weren’t poisoned."

"Huh?" Mu Qinglan was taken aback, her expression stiffened. "What? What on earth is going on?"

Lu Jinxuan’s gaze was inscrutable, "It’s the composition in the medicine you’re currently taking that clashes with the ingredients! The ingredients were bought by you, right?"

"Uh..." Mu Qinglan was dumbfounded, her eyes flickering, "Is... is that so? So, there’s a situation where medicine and ingredients clash? I really didn’t know! So... Miss Yu won’t be affected? I didn’t know, she surely wouldn’t know either, how could ordinary people know?"

Lu Jinxuan nodded, "Yes, it took some effort to test and find out, she assisted in the investigation, it’s fine now."

"Ah..." Mu Qinglan sighed, "As long as she’s fine, I was worried... she’d get implicated..."

While saying this, she bit down hard in frustration! Such a good opportunity, yet Yu Sangwan turned out fine? Drug interactions clashing with ingredients... before doing this, she had already asked her older brother Mu Qingyang to investigate in detail, ordinary testing institutions couldn’t find it out!

She thought this time Yu Sangwan would be doomed... unexpectedly, even when she used herself as a wager, she couldn’t succeed?

Silently clenching her hands, Mu Qinglan’s heart gradually filled with hatred. By this point, it wasn’t entirely because of the instructions from Madam Lu...

With the situation calmed, Lu Jinxuan returned to work under Jiang Shuo’s identity. Mu Qinglan insisted she was fine and refused to stay longer in the hospital, insisting on going back with him.

As soon as they entered the door, they heard a burst of bright laughter.

"Haha... let’s see where you run!" It was the voice of Le Zhengsheng.

Yu Sangwan begged repeatedly, "Stop it! If you keep messing around, when will the clothes be done washing?"

"Oh." Le Zhengsheng, hearing this, pouted and became honest, "Alright, you wash... now that the water is dirty, I’ll change a basin for you!"

"Okay!"

The two worked seamlessly together, and Lu Jinxuan, seeing this, felt a fire burning within him! What was Yu Sangwan doing? Was she washing Le Zhengsheng’s clothes now? Not long ago, she was washing clothes for him, how did she switch to someone else so quickly!

Le Zhengsheng lifted the basin and with a flick of his arm, the dirty water went flying!

"Ah..." Mu Qinglan was caught off guard, her shoes completely soaked.

At this point, Le Zhengsheng and Yu Sangwan finally looked up at them.

Yu Sangwan looked awkward, seeing Lu Jinxuan and Mu Qinglan standing together, her heart felt sour. She begged him so much that day, but he still left her! He didn’t even visit her at the police station, only gave a meaningless consolation.

Turns out, he was accompanying Mu Qinglan at the hospital!

Feeling upset, she lowered her head and focused on washing her clothes. 𝒻𝑟ℯℯ𝑤𝑒𝑏𝑛𝘰𝓋𝑒𝓁.𝒸𝑜𝘮

Le Zhengsheng, however, curved his lips into a smile, "Oh, who do we have here? Out for a walk, are we!"

Seeing one’s romantic rival, emotions run high. Lu Jinxuan sneered, "Director, shouldn’t you apologize?"

"Hmm?" Le Zhengsheng raised an eyebrow, scoffed and said, "Alright, I’ll apologize! Sorry for splashing you with dirty water!"

After speaking, he turned and walked away.

"Director!" Lu Jinxuan called him back, "Is that enough?"

Le Zhengsheng frowned and smacked his lips, looking back at him, "Then what do you want?"

Lu Jinxuan squinted, with a half-smile, "The shoes are dirty, would the Director mind cleaning them? Besides, weren’t you doing laundry?"

Having a Project Director clean shoes? This was simply... a provocation!
