Chapter 187: The Little Girl Is Quite Cute When She Acts Like A Child
Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
The jarring sound of tires grating against the pavement hung in the air like a menacing blade poised above the crowd.
Meanwhile, the black sedan, lightning-fast, surged ahead with its nose nearly scraping the road.
The rear of the car wasn’t as fortunate and collided with something.
But it wasn’t too severe; the car’s body had crumpled inward, nearly scaring the life out of Wu Yue, who was sitting in the back, causing him to scramble to the other side.
After driving through, Qin Lu slammed on the brakes.
They came to a stop by the roadside.
Behind them, there was a thunderous crash.
The cargo truck had overturned, and its sideways body scraped along the ground for quite a distance.
The heavy cargo in the truck tumbled out as it flipped over, consisting entirely
of large rocks.
Qin Lu and Nan Yan got out of the car, surveying the disaster in front of them. Once the force of the collision from the large truck had subsided and it came to a stop at the edge of the road, the two of them walked over.
The driver of the truck was covered in blood, his body contorted in a way that suggested he wouldn’t survive.
The car was wrecked, and the driver was dead.
“Was this an accident?” Nan Yan looked at Qin Lu.
Perhaps in the eyes of outsiders, it was just an accident.
But in the world Nan Yan knew, there were plenty of ways to manufacture accidents as a means of murder.
Now, it depended on whether Qin Lu had any enemies who hated him enough to resort to such a method.
“We need to investigate,” Qin Lu said, looking at Nan Yan thoughtfully.
“Are you not afraid, Yanyan?”
“What is there to be afraid of?” Nan Yan’s composure exceeded his expectations.
Most people would be terrified for a long time after narrowly avoiding a car accident. Just like Wu Yue, who had taken so long to get out of the car and walked as if he were floating, his face pale and sweat on his forehead. That was the normal reaction of a person.
But the calmness of this child, in the face of such a catastrophe, was extraordinary.
He really wanted to know what she had experienced in the past.
From the moment he first saw her, her calm demeanor had set her apart from others.
She was truly a girl who tugged at one’s heartstrings.
“Young Master, Miss Nan Yan,” Wu Yue, still unsteady on his feet, walked up to them and glanced at the driver’s seat of the truck.
This time, there wasn’t much change in his expression.
After all, having been by Master Qin’s side, he had seen it all, including assassinations. Seeing a dead body was nothing to him.
Wu Yue licked his lips. “Could it be that the driver was fatigued and fell asleep while driving?”
If the car was fine, and there had been no speeding, that seemed to be the only explanation.
“Have someone investigate the driver’s background, the route he was taking, and the destination,” Qin Lu instructed, and Wu Yue nodded. “Yes, Young Master!”
Although the car had been damaged, it was still drivable. After reporting the incident to the authorities, Wu Yue stayed behind to handle the aftermath while Qin Lu took Nan Yan back to the Qin residence.
Old Madam Qin was dozing on the couch when she heard the sound of the car, immediately waking up. She stood up and walked outside.
Seeing that even Nanny Li, who was standing nearby, had almost fallen asleep, Old Madam Qin hurriedly walked down.
“Slow down, Madam, don’t rush down the stairs!” Nanny Li called out as she followed Old Madam Qin.
Old Madam Qin paid no attention to Nanny Li’s words and hurriedly descended the stairs.
When Nan Yan saw Old Madam Qin’s anxious expression from inside the car, she quickly unbuckled her seatbelt and hopped out of the car to greet her.
“Yanyan, Grandma missed you so much!” Old Madam Qin hugged Nan Yan tightly, not letting go.
Nan Yan supported Old Madam Qin and furrowed her brows as she admonished, “Grandma, don’t run like this next time. I won’t leave anyway; we don’t need these extra minutes.”
Old Madam Qin smiled warmly and nodded. “Alright, I understand.” Then she noticed the car and asked anxiously, “Did you have an accident? Were you hurt anywhere?”
“No, Grandma.” Nan Yan reassured her, patting her back. “When we changed lanes, the other driver was a novice and accidentally hit us. The car got a bit damaged, but we’re fine.”
“That’s good, that’s good…” Old Madam Qin heaved a sigh of relief. “It doesn’t matter if the car is damaged as long as you’re safe.” “But you really scared Grandma,” she continued.
Qin Lu, after parking the car, got out and joined them.
Old Madam Qin’s eyes widened, and she scolded, “I asked you to pick up
Yanyan, not get into an accident! You even had an accident!”
“Fortunately, no one was hurt. Otherwise, I wouldn’t spare you!” She continued to reprimand him.
“Hmph!” Old Madam Qin huffed in a spoiled manner, then turned to Nan Yan and said, “Yanyan, come, let’s go inside. Grandma has prepared supper for you. It’s a good time to eat something to calm your nerves.”
Nan Yan looked at Qin Lu and smiled mischievously, showing a lack of sympathy. Then she affectionately took Old Madam Qin’s hand and said, “Thank you, Grandma.”
Afterward, Nan Yan and Nanny Li supported Old Madam Qin into the house, leaving Qin Lu outside.
Qin Lu chuckled as he raised his hand to rub his forehead.
When this little girl acts like a child, she’s quite adorable.
Hmm.
Having both his little companions on either side was rather enjoyable, even if they were delighting in his misfortune.
After having supper, Nan Yan chatted with Old Madam Qin for a while. Seeing that it was almost one in the morning, she persuaded Old Madam Qin and Nanny Li to go to bed.
Nan Yan’s room was still the same as before.
She prepared to wash up and opened the wardrobe to get a nightgown.
To her surprise, the previously empty wardrobe was now filled with clothes.
All of them were the latest styles of the season, in various designs.
Nan Yan couldn’t help but rub her temples in exasperation.
Well, they had already prepared everything for her, so there was no point in being frustrated.
She randomly chose a silk nightgown and went straight to the bathroom.
After washing up, she came out with her hair wet.
There was someone in her room now.
Qin Lu originally wanted to talk to her. As he lifted his head, his gaze suddenly froze, and in an instant, it was as if all the light had vanished around him, leaving him momentarily stunned.
Nan Yan had planned to wash up and go to bed immediately after drying her hair. Therefore, she wasn’t wearing a bra, fully exposed.
She appeared skinny at first glance, but her body had developed nicely. Although there was a layer of fabric covering her, the silk clung to her skin, accentuating her contours even more.
Qin Lu managed to restrain himself. After a moment of stunned silence, he quickly averted his gaze and turned his head.
Nan Yan was still in the same position, holding her hair and towel, her brain a bit blank.
Why, in the middle of the night, did big brother Qin come to her room?
“Sorry…” Qin Lu’s voice sounded slightly strained, “Yanyan, I’ll come talk to you tomorrow.”
After saying that, he stood up, avoiding looking in her direction again, and walked out of her room.
Only when he had closed the door behind him did Nan Yan snap back to her senses.
Then she lowered her head, glanced at her own appearance, and closed her eyes in despair.
This…. was one of the most awkward situations she had ever experienced!
