Chapter 137 Shen Jingxiu's Car Accident
"Yes." Shen Jingchuan's voice was a bit muffled, as if he hadn't fully woken up yet. "I initially took on this contract to make money, who knew it wouldn't bring in money quickly, and it's not as good as talking to investors outside."
Wen Yan was somewhat incredulous. "With your quick temper, are you really suitable for talking to investors? You've only been back for a short while, and the money is already in place?"
"What, do you underestimate me? In order to achieve my goals, I can endure humiliation and setbacks. If I can't get investment, it's no big deal, as long as I'm not humiliated, I'm fine."
"When are you going to open your business? I'll come and support you."
"It's still early, the money isn't enough."
"What? I just asked you and you said the funds were all raised, why is it not enough now?"
"Did I say that?" Shen Jingchuan was confused himself. "I've had a bit too much to drink, my head is spinning, and it's not all there yet. But don't worry, when I open, I'll definitely invite you to the grand opening and give you a prime spot."
Wen Yan chuckled, "You don't need to do that, it's your hard work, you should take the main spot. Anyway, I hope your business goes smoothly and fulfills all the efforts you're putting into it now."
"Okay!" Shen Jingchuan couldn't help but laugh on the phone. "Your words have touched my heart. Wen Yan, if my club turns out the way you said, I will announce to the world that you are my lucky goddess!"
Wen Yan was truly surprised, "Is that exaggerating?"
"It's not, this is what the gods told me."
"Which god?"
"Um... I forgot. The name is very long, and it's a foreign god, I can't remember anymore."
"...Are you even believing what a god with a name you can't even remember says?"
"I believe it, you wouldn't understand!" After all, he could read her mind.
"Alright, I have to go, I'm driving right now."
"Okay, I need to get up too."
The call quickly ended.
But after a while, Wen Yan realized that Shen Jingchuan had called again.
"What's up?" She answered the phone, a little surprised. "Why are you calling again?"
On the other end, Shen Jingchuan was brushing his teeth and asked, somewhat belatedly, "Do you want me to accompany you to participate in that wilderness survival program?"
Wen Yan was speechless, "Oh my goodness, Mr. Shen Jingchuan, your reflexes could circle the earth. You're not still drunk, are you?"
"How could I be? The alcohol has long been metabolized by my body."
"Good, then," Wen Yan reminded, "Don't forget to come back for the family dinner tonight. As for the program and all, it's my own career, and since I've signed the contract, I will go and record it well. You just focus on your own business and don't worry about me."
"Uh, I almost forgot about the family dinner tonight."
"What! Didn't you promise Mom already? She's looking forward to your return."
"Haha, just teasing you. The dinner tonight is to celebrate your discharge, how could I forget? See you tonight."
After ending the call with Shen Jingchuan, Wen Yan drove back to her residence.
She had not been home for long when her assistant He Xing also arrived.
The rules for this season of "Jungle Diaries" had changed, allowing guests to bring some tools, but these items had to be within the limits specified by the program group, and there would be checks when the official filming started.
After discussing and finalizing a list with the program group's contract, Wen Yan gave He Xing the task to handle it.
After dealing with this matter, she went to a nearby flower market and bought some flowers to take to the Shen family villa.
She returned home around four o'clock in the afternoon.
To her surprise, Mrs. Su was also at home.
And both of them, it seemed, had bought flowers.
It was obvious that Mrs. Su was very invested in the family dinner tonight, as she had left work early to personally arrange the dining room.
She was also very pleased to see Wen Yan return with flowers. "Yan Yan, you're back. Did the signing go smoothly today?"
"Smoothly." Wen Yan took the initiative to help, "Let me help you, Mom. I should have known you bought flowers, then I wouldn't have bought any. The ones I chose aren't as nice as yours, and I have no place to put them."
"Who says that? The ones you chose are very beautiful, I like them. I'll put them in my bedroom later. Can you arrange flowers?"
Wen Yan honestly shook her head, "I can't."
"It's okay, Mama will teach you."
They both shared their knowledge, one passing it on, the other learning earnestly.
Suddenly, a phone call interrupted the peaceful atmosphere.
It was Mrs. Su's phone.
When she saw the incoming call, she even smiled and said to Wen Yan, "It's your dad calling."
But as soon as she answered the phone, Mrs. Su's expression immediately changed.
"What? How did the accident happen? How is he now, is it serious?"
"Okay, I understand. I'm with Yan Yan at home right now, I will come over right away."
After saying this, Mrs. Su immediately hung up the phone.
After speaking, Su Yang immediately hung up the phone.
Wen Yan hurriedly asked her, "What's wrong, Mom? Who had a car accident?"
Su Yang's face was full of worry. "It's your eldest brother. They said he injured his leg and has been taken to the hospital. His driver and assistant are both seriously injured."
Wen Yan also didn't expect such a thing to happen! "Both the driver and assistant of my brother are seriously injured, what about my brother?"
"They said it's not a big problem, but I'm still worried. I have to go to the hospital immediately to see him."
"Then I'll go with you."
After the two finished talking, they immediately put down their respective tasks.
It wasn't congested at this time, so half an hour later, Su Yang and Wen Yan arrived at the hospital.
When they arrived, Shen Yuan was comforting the driver's family. They heard that the driver was being rescued in the ICU.
Shen Jingxiu's assistant, Wen Yiming, was also seriously injured and had already been taken into the operating room.
Only Shen Jingxiu, he was relatively lucky. Apart from some abrasions on his face, he only had a slight fracture in his shin bone.
When Su Yang and Wen Yan went over, Shen Jingxiu's injured leg had already been splinted and fixed.
Shen Jingxiu was somewhat surprised to see the two of them coming over.
"Mom, Wen Yan, why are you here? Did Dad notify you? I'm just lightly injured."
Su Yang's eyes were filled with affection and fear. "You were just lucky. The driver and assistant of the same car were seriously injured. The driver who caused the accident died on the spot. How do you feel now? Does your leg hurt?"
"A little, but I can bear it." Shen Jingxiu propped himself up on the bed and stood up using one foot. "Did the driver and Wen's family come?"
"They came, your father has already gone to comfort them. Don't worry, we may not be able to do anything else, but the Shen family will do our best to provide financial and medical support for them. Take good care of yourself."
Shen Jingxiu nodded. "That's what we should do, but I still have to go and see for myself."
