Chapter 222 - 222 222 Peculiar

222: Chapter 222: Peculiar 222: Chapter 222: Peculiar Lin Qianqian stepped forward and immediately asked, “Uncle, are you…

really all right now?”

Old Master Zhang opened his eyes again and glanced at her.

“Qianqian, your uncle is much better, my body doesn’t hurt much anymore.”

Old Master Zhang said with some effort.

“That’s good.”

Lin Qianqian nodded, then Old Master Zhang closed his eyes and lay down.

At this time, the Zhang family’s house was exceptionally quiet.

The atmosphere became somewhat awkward.

After a moment of silence, Zhang Xueying and Lin Qianqian exchanged a few glances, then Zhang Xueying pulled Lin Qianqian to Chen Yang.

“Chen Yang, I’m really sorry, my cousin was just worried about my dad, she didn’t mean any harm.”

Zhang Xueying apologized to Chen Yang, pulling Lin Qianqian along.

Chen Yang had an unchanged expression, looking at Lin Qianqian indifferently without saying a word.

Lin Qianqian’s face looked strained, her teeth clenched tightly.

From her expression, it seemed she was extremely conflicted.

After struggling for a long time, she finally apologized in a very guilty tone, “I’m sorry, Chen Yang…

I was wrong, I was just too anxious at the time, I really didn’t expect your medical skills to be so superb, I hope you can accept my apology for my sister’s sake.”

Although Lin Qianqian could be thoughtless, she was also the kind of person who hated to show weakness.

This was evident from her previous insistence on crossing paths with Zhang Xueying.

Now that she could say such things, she certainly knew in her heart that she was wrong.

So, as soon as she finished speaking, the indifference on Chen Yang’s face instantly disappeared.

“I understand your urgency to treat Old Master Zhang, since you apologized like this, it would be petty of me not to accept it,” Chen Yang said with a smile.

At Chen Yang’s smile, the awkward atmosphere in the room instantly lightened.

A smile appeared on Zhang Xueying’s face, and Lin Qianqian, after a moment of surprise, also smiled.

At this moment, Lin Qianqian’s favorable impression of Chen Yang soared.

She began to understand why Zhang Xueying trusted Chen Yang so much.

With such superb medical skills, there was nothing not to trust.

“Chen Yang, after apologizing, I also want to thank you for curing my uncle!” Lin Qianqian said with a smile, extending her hand.

Chen Yang looked at her, then extended his hand too, and they shook hands.

“A trivial matter, not worth mentioning,” said Chen Yang with a slight air of pride.

The three of them exchanged smiles, then got to work cleaning up the remaining blood and such around the house.

The three of them busied themselves, and soon the entire house was cleaned up.

By then, it was noon.

Zhang Xueying insisted on having Chen Yang stay for a meal at their home.

Knowing the invitation was hard to decline, Chen Yang did not refuse.

He agreed readily, as there was nothing much else to do if he returned home.

Zhang Xueying was very capable, cooking quickly, and the food she made was also very delicious.

After a busy morning, Chen Yang was starving.

He devoured his meal heartily.

Just as Chen Yang finished eating and was preparing to go home, a police car suddenly drove into Maotou Village.

And it headed straight for the Zhang family’s home.

With a squeal, the police car stopped at the entrance of the Zhang family’s home.

Then, two police officers got out of the car.

Seeing the sudden appearance of the police, Chen Yang was slightly taken aback, then turned to Zhang Xueying and said, “Did you call the police about the Old Master being hit by a car?”

“Yeah.”

Zhang Xueying nodded, then continued, “But I called the police at the time my dad was hit, I didn’t expect them to come just now.”

“You called the police back then?”

Chen Yang was astonished.

“Yes, I called you first when he was hit, and then I immediately called the police,” Zhang Xueying said calmly.

Hearing this, Chen Yang was immediately puzzled.

If they had called the police early in the morning, why did the police car only arrive now?

As Chen Yang was trying to figure it out, two police officers who had come down from the police car had already approached the three of them.

“Was it you who called the police at noon, claiming someone in your family was hit by a car?” one of the officers asked, his face stern.

Zhang Xueying exchanged a glance with Chen Yang and then immediately nodded, “Yes, Officer, It was me who called the police.”

“Oh, it’s you guys, that’s good.”

The officer still wore an indifferent expression, pulled out a small notebook and a pen from his pocket, and started to inquire about the details on the spot.

Zhang Xueying recounted all the details of how the elder Mr.

Zhang was hit.

“Officer, it was like this.

This morning, as my father and I were returning home from farming, a SUV suddenly rushed out and hit my dad as we got to our doorstep.”

“It knocked my father into unconsciousness and, upon examination, at least a dozen of his bones were found broken.”

Zhang Xueying had been in an alright mood, but as she spoke of these details, tears started falling uncontrollably from her eyes.

Upon hearing Zhang Xueying recount these events, Chen Yang felt a sudden heaviness in his heart.

From Zhang Xueying’s description, Chen Yang sensed that there might be something fishy going on.

However, before Chen Yang could probe further into the details, the two police officers simply nodded without changing their expressions and said, “I see, we’re already aware of what happened, and we’ll look into it.

We’ll notify you when results are available.”

With that, they turned around, got back into their police car, and drove off.

Watching the rapidly departing police car, Chen Yang’s face was filled with astonishment.

He was also seething with anger inside.

“Are the police being too perfunctory?

They say the old man was hit like that, and that’s it?” Chen Yang angrily said.

Zhang Xueying, tears in her eyes, remained silent.

Lin Qianqian was just as infuriated as Chen Yang.

“These people are completely incompetent; I’m going to report them.”

While furious, Lin Qianqian immediately took out her phone, ready to make a call and file a complaint.

But Zhang Xueying abruptly pulled her back.

“Qianqian, don’t make trouble.

They are law enforcement officers; you’ll just offend people unnecessarily,” Zhang Xueying advised.

“Sister!

What era are we living in!”

Lin Qianqian’s face was anxious; she couldn’t swallow her anger and picked up the phone intending to complain.

However, at that moment, Chen Yang also stopped her.

“Your sister is right, making a call won’t help,” Chen Yang said.

“So, we just let this go?

My uncle was hit like that, and we need to know who did it!” Lin Qianqian angrily said.

Lin Qianqian knew in her heart that her actions might not mean much, but she just couldn’t let it go.

Chen Yang looked at her and comforted, “This matter will be thoroughly investigated, don’t worry.”

“The police are not handling it, so who else will investigate for us?” Lin Qianqian asked, puzzled.

Chen Yang smiled faintly, “Don’t worry, it will be thoroughly investigated.”

With that, Chen Yang exchanged a few words with the two women and then rode off on his electric tricycle.

After watching Chen Yang leave, the two women also turned around and went back home.

They thought Chen Yang would go straight home, but that was not the case.

Chen Yang circled around the entire Maotou Village, inquiring about the incident from everyone he could.

The incident of the elder Mr.

Zhang being hit today was really too mysterious.

The situation in Maotou Village was pretty much like that in Liuhe Village.

The village only had a simple concrete road.

On such a village road, you wouldn’t see several cars passing by in several days.

And yet, coincidentally, a car passing by just happened to hit the elder Mr.

Zhang.

That was too much of a coincidence.

Moreover, when the two police officers came just now, Chen Yang had also noticed something strange.

Although the police officer inquired about what happened from Zhang Xueying, by their expressions, it seemed as if they already knew the details.

It was merely a formality.

These two points raised Chen Yang’s suspicions.

He felt that the sudden car accident involving the elder Mr.

Zhang wasn’t as simple as it appeared.
