532: Chapter 532: Car Accident Trouble!
Bro Can’t Keep a Low Profile!
Keep calm!
You must stay calm!
Wu Jie reminded himself not to feel that being a special agent was something to brag about and be happy about.
Though he now had greater powers, it also meant that he would shoulder even greater responsibilities!
Phew!
With a long sigh, Wu Jie expelled his distracting thoughts and focused wholly on his work!
…
Twenty minutes later.
With Zheng’s laughter seeing him off, Wu Jie finally drove out of the compound.
And it wasn’t until he had driven quite far away that his mobile phone regained signal.
Who would have thought that in this old industrial district, such a mysterious department was located?
While driving, he called Tang Xiao.
After hearing everything, Tang Xiao couldn’t help but burst out laughing.
“I told you nothing would happen.
If there were any problems, they would have broken in and caught you long ago!”
“They wouldn’t have given you an address and let you drive over yourself!
It’s clear they had other plans!”
Wu Jie sighed, “If only Zheng had been upfront, I would have gotten everything done and come back already!”
Tang Xiao laughed, “It’s fine.
Even if you come home now, I’m not there!”
“Ah?
Where did you go?” Wu Jie asked in surprise.
“I slept too much during the day, couldn’t sleep at night, so I’m visiting Bai Fengling.
We’re currently enjoying and discussing a movie!”
Because the fight the day before had been too intense, Tang Xiao was overburdened and injured, so she had spent almost the whole day in bed applying medication.
Wu Jie, of course, had stayed with her the entire time, so not only was he not tired at the moment, but he was also very energized.
He caught sight of a barbecue stand up ahead.
Wu Jie casually asked with a laugh:
“Then enjoy watching.
Do you want some barbecue for a late-night snack?
I’ll bring some for both of you!”
“Sure!
I haven’t eaten it in so long, remember to get a lot of chicken wings, beef, drumsticks…”
“Hold on!” Wu Jie feigned irritation, “Do I need to bring back the barbecue stand along with it?
All meat, aren’t you afraid of getting fat and turning into a big fat pig?!”
Tang Xiao declared loudly, “Right!
I want to eat meat, get fat like a pig.
Are you saying you wouldn’t want me then?”
“I would!
Haven’t you heard?
Women with a little extra weight stand up better to the wild, and they make men happier…”
“Get lost!
Fengling is right here, what nonsense are you spouting!
That’s it, I’m hanging up!”
After that, Tang Xiao hung up the phone.
Wu Jie hummed a laugh, signaled to pull over, parked the car, and headed straight to the barbecue stand.
In the sweltering heat, skewering and drinking beer was an absolute delight.
So the small stand, with only a few tables, was packed with people.
In the dim light of the street lamps, Wu Jie approached the barbecue cart and started picking out various skewers of meat.
Back when he had a smaller salary and life was tough,
he didn’t dare order too many meat skewers, they were too expensive.
But now…
“Young man, can you finish all that you’re ordering?”
The owner was getting anxious.
Wu Jie smiled, “I’m getting it to go!
Can you tally up how much it costs?”
“Sure thing!”
The owner wiped her hands on her apron and took the basket, ready to count.
However, under the light of the little lamp powered by the electric battery, and being so close, he recognized Wu Jie almost immediately.
“Oh my, aren’t you that…
that role model for losers?
You…
”
The lady boss’s voice suddenly rose, and Wu Jie quickly shook his head to signal her.
With a giggle, the lady boss lowered her voice and laughed,
“So it’s you!
I usually love watching the great videos.
Last night after I watched Yuan Shikui’s video, I decisively cashed out, and I even got over a thousand more credited to my account!”
“Working hard from dawn to dusk, making money isn’t easy!
The bank interest is so low, and putting it in Tianyuan He Ying’s app, I’d only earn a few bucks a day, but in the end…
Ah, never mind, I’ve got relatives who still haven’t gotten their money back!”
Wu Jie consoled her, “It’s okay!
Bankruptcy liquidation will eventually pay out!
Could you please hurry and tally up my account?”
The lady boss chuckled straightforwardly, “My goodness!
What account to tally?
If it weren’t for the video post you shared, my husband and I probably wouldn’t have gotten our money back.
Consider these skewers as a token of my gratitude to you!”
Wu Jie quickly took out his wallet, pinched a stack of bills, and directly placed them into the cash box.
“Hey, what are you doing…
”
“Fair is fair!
If you really want to thank me, just get a VIP membership on that great video platform!”
“But these skewers, they’re not worth thousands…”
“If you keep on like this, I’m not going to eat them!”
Wu Jie feigned a threat, his expression stern.
The lady boss finally gave in and hurried to shuffle the grill, sizzling away as she prioritized Wu Jie’s skewers.
Seeing this, Wu Jie didn’t know what to say.
At that moment.
The boss came back with a plate of beer bottles in hand and also recognized Wu Jie at a glance.
He quickly pulled out a cigarette and offered it, and Wu Jie didn’t put on airs, promptly lighting up.
He had given most of a pack to Zheng earlier, and now his craving for a smoke was acting up.
“I really… really didn’t expect to run into the person himself tonight!”
Wu Jie laughed, “Don’t make such a fuss, I’m just an ordinary person, right?
But speaking of which, your business isn’t doing too bad, huh?”
“We weren’t chased away today, so it was so-so!” the boss laughed.
“It’s all your merit, you’ve shot up to the sky, no longer an ordinary person.”
“Just lucky!” Wu Jie humbly laughed.
“I used to be quite envious of you guys!
Running your own business, free and easy, and making more than a regular job!”
“But it’s hard work!
Up early and bed late, and always worrying about being chased off!
It’s slightly better since we moved to the suburbs of the city!”
The boss said and went to help his wife.
Both of them working together on two grills, they sped up the cooking process significantly.
The charcoal fire roasted the food, emitting delicious aromas.
Wu Jie, watching intently, was salivating.
Suddenly!
A loud bang!
A collision sound suddenly came from behind, followed by the urgent alarm of a car.
In an instant, many people were startled.
“Damn it!
This…”
“This is bad!
A real disaster this time!”
“A tragic drama!
This is a huge loss!”
…
In the midst of everyone’s clamorous discussion, Wu Jie also turned his head to look back.
He was instantly taken aback.
The car had been hit!
It was an elderly sanitation worker on a tricycle who seemed unable to brake in time and had crashed into the left rear side of the car.
The tricycle was loaded with quite a few cardboard boxes and plastic bottles.
The old man was visibly agitated, cursing towards a swiftly escaping electric scooter in the distance.
It must have been the electric tricycle suddenly overtaking that panicked the old man, and as a result, he couldn’t brake in time and crashed right into a Mercedes by the roadside.
The collision was not a light one—he made quite a large dent.
Many people couldn’t even care to eat their barbecue anymore and gathered around to watch the excitement.
“Tragedy, indeed!
This car isn’t cheap.
A Mercedes GLE from the AMG line, easily over a million!”
“With that hit, the bumper and radar sensor must be damaged too!
To repair it, at least twenty or thirty thousand!”
“Such a nice car, what a pity!”
…
Amidst the bustling discussions of the crowd,
the sanitation worker pushed his tricycle backward, and the large dent in the rear of the Mercedes became visible to everyone.
All at once, many people gasped.
The side of the tricycle’s carriage was, after all, made of hard metal; the damage from the high-speed impact was naturally significant.
Seeing the severe damage, the sanitation worker was completely stunned.
He stood there in a daze, at a loss for what to do, as if frozen.
Many people discussed in a flurry, some even bluntly suggested the old man should run away quickly because he would never be able to afford the compensation!
Meanwhile, in front of the barbecue stall.
Wu Jie asked the stall owner and his wife to keep grilling, took a mask to wear, and then walked over.
The old sanitation worker took out a feature phone, tremblingly made a call, his whole body shaking.
“Daughter, I…
I’ve had an accident, I’m not hurt, but I hit a Mercedes.
They say it could cost twenty or thirty thousand to fix…”
“Hello?…
Daughter?
Hello?”
The phone seemed to be ruthlessly hung up.
An old man of such an age working as a sanitation worker, picking up trash to earn money.
One can imagine what kind of daughter that would be.
The onlooking crowd exchanged glances, falling silent.
Pity, helplessness, despair…
The sanitation worker grew anxious and tried calling again.
But this time, the feature phone’s loudspeaker directly announced a voice message.
“I’m sorry, the user you are calling is busy!”
It was clear that the call was deliberately terminated by the receiver.
He dialed again…
“I’m sorry, the user you are calling has turned off their phone!”
The sanitation worker’s body shook, and he nearly couldn’t hold on to his phone, almost stumbling and falling over.
“Old man, you should run while the car owner isn’t here!”
“Right!
Fixing this car, twenty or thirty thousand is on the lower end, it’d cost much more at a 4S shop!”
“This car seems to have just arrived, right?
Seems like they came for the barbecue too?”
“My god!
Can it be?
Driving such an expensive luxury car to eat street-side barbecue?”
“Hurry up and run, old man, we didn’t see anything!”
…
Amidst these urging voices, the sanitation worker didn’t run; instead, he took out his phone to call the police.
Wu Jie finally pushed through the crowd and arrived in front of the old man.
“Better leave quickly, old man.
This car belongs to our company.
I’ll report to the insurance later!” Wu Jie said.
As soon as Wu Jie spoke these words, the surroundings erupted into an even bigger commotion.
“So it’s a company car!
Then it doesn’t matter!”
“Old man, the driver is here, just listen to him and get going!”
“The insurance company will cover it, it won’t concern you!”
“Go on!
You really think you could pay tens of thousands?”
…
In the wave of persuading voices that followed, the sanitation worker handed his phone to Wu Jie.
“Young man, what’s…
what’s your number?
I will make a note of it, and after the car is repaired, I will compensate you for the cost!” he said.
Wu Jie shook his head with a smile.
“No need for that, the insurance company will take care of the compensation.
Don’t worry about it!
It’s late, and at your age, you should go home and rest.
Don’t fret over this small incident, just be more careful when riding in the future!”
With that, Wu Jie took out his wallet and stuffed the remaining stack of cash into the pocket of the old man’s reflective sanitation uniform.
“Hurry up and get going!
If you don’t leave now, the insurance company’s people will be here soon!” Wu Jie said with a smile, urging him on.
Not allowing him to pay, and even giving him a substantial amount of money.
This…
Is he the driver?
Many found it baffling!
Because he wore a mask and the lighting was not very good,
Wu Jie was not recognized by anyone at the moment.
And with Wu Jie’s persuasion, the old sanitation worker finally agreed to leave.
Only, he refused to take the money, insisting on returning it to Wu Jie.
“If you keep this up, I’ll call the police!”
A friendly threat finally made the old sanitation worker give up his stubbornness and he rode away on his tricycle.
After this event, the crowd was abuzz with discussion and praises.
Wu Jie didn’t take it to heart and forgot that he still hadn’t collected his barbecue order.
Paying no mind to the lively discussions of the surrounding crowd, he got into his car.
Just as he was about to leave, the stall owner shouted from outside.
“Mr.
Wu!
Your barbecue!!”
That shout possessed an astonishing force akin to a ‘lion’s roar’.
Seated in the car, Wu Jie could hear it, let alone the onlookers indulging in the spectacle.
In an instant!
Many began to realize.
This was no driver, but the car owner himself!
And Mr.
Wu…
In Tianyuan City, which ‘Mr.
Wu’ had a renowned reputation?
Isn’t it Wu Jie, the role model for rags to riches, who became a senior director, married the Fair-skinned, Rich and Beautiful lady, and reached the pinnacle of success in his career?
In no time at all.
Many were thrilled.
Some rushed over to knock on the window, wanting to chat, take photos, or snap pictures of the car’s rear end.
“Mr.
Wu, you’re my idol!
Could we take a photo together?”
“I would like to work in your company, I’m up for anything, Mr.
Wu!”
“Mr.
Wu, where is President Tang, your wife?
Is she in the car?”
“Was Yuan Shikui beaten up by you?
That was so satisfying!”
“Mr.
Wu, come down and join us for skewers, I’m buying!”
