Chapter 209: 209. Roll up your sleeves and get to work

"Xuxu, are you alright?"

Xia Yumo hiccuped drunkenly, her hazy eyes looking at Qiao Xu across from her, who seemed to be still somewhat sober, and asked.

"I’m fine."

Qiao Xu’s voice was faint, but due to the amount of alcohol she had drunk, it was also a bit hoarse.

Xia Yumo tightened the collar of her coat and said to Qiao Xu, "I’m so cold, let’s go home."

"Okay."

Qiao Xu obediently nodded like a child.

After paying the bill, they called for a designated driver. While on their way, they heard a sudden "bang," scaring all three people in the car, including the driver.

Somehow, the front right tire had punctured on something sharp and burst. The car’s front end, now out of control, collided with the roadside barrier.

The two passengers in the back seat, who had not fastened their seat belts, slammed their heads into the window. Xia Yumo was okay, as there happened to be a large soft pillow next to her, blocking some of the impact. Qiao Xu was less fortunate; she hit her forehead on the glass, cutting a deep gash, from which blood gushed out in an instant.

The designated driver was a young lady who was startled by the situation, apologizing while crying.

Xia Yumo, quite drunk herself, cried out in shock when she saw the blood on Qiao Xu’s forehead, "Xuxu, you’re bleeding!"

By that time, someone had already called the police, and the young driver had managed to regain her composure, helping Qiao Xu out of the car to wait for help.

Qiao Xu stood quietly to the side, covering her head with her hand, not making a sound. She just stared blankly at the gathering crowd, furrowing her brow in discomfort.

"Why are they looking at us?"

Xia Yumo tilted her head, her body swaying, "Don’t they think we are exceptionally good-looking?"

The designated driver waiting for help nearby: "..."

Both women were heavily intoxicated. Even though they were not in the right state of mind, the young lady still kindly answered their question, "Your tire exploded, we’re waiting for help."

Right as she finished speaking, Qiao Xu, who had been quietly standing off to the side, suddenly brightened, "Don’t worry, I can change the tire."

With that, she took off her coat, rolled up her sleeves, opened the car trunk, and skillfully took out the spare tire.

The crowd: "..."

"Miss, you’re injured. It’s better to wait here; the traffic police will be here soon."

Someone kindly advised, but Qiao Xu didn’t listen and squatted down next to the tire to start changing it quietly.

She appeared calm and quiet, as if she wasn’t drunk at all. However, this abnormal behavior showed that she was even more drunk than Xia Yumo.

"What happened up there?"

Gu Junhang frowned, looking at the congested crowd up ahead and said softly.

"I’ll check it out."

Lu Moqing, who was sitting in the passenger seat next to him, furrowed his brow and got out of the car in irritation.

Because they had been bothered all day, they met with Gu Junhang for drinks, only to be inexplicably stuck halfway.

"Xuxu, have you changed the tire yet?"

Before getting close to the crowd, he heard a familiar female voice from within. Lu Moqing paused briefly before a sense of unease stirred within him.

He subconsciously quickened his pace and squeezed into the crowd.

Soon after, the horrifying and heart-wrenching scene suddenly came into view.
