Looking down at their joined hands, she felt happiness firmly grasped. She smiled contentedly.
Arriving at the bottom of the slope, he suddenly stopped the car by a convenience store.
”Xuan, can you help me buy a bottle of mineral water? My mouth is full of alcohol taste, and I can’t stand it. I want to kiss you, but I don’t like the alcohol taste myself, and I don’t want you to smell it.”
”Okay, wait a moment.” She got out of the car and went into the store to buy water. When she came out, she casually looked up and happily waved to him in the car.
”The moon is so round and bright tonight. Do you want to come out and take a look?
“Okay.” Leaving the car, An Zhang walked towards her. Seeing her face suddenly change, she cried out in terror—
“Be careful! Quick, run away from there!” She shouted with all her strength, running towards him.
He was momentarily confused but quickly ran towards her as instructed. Suddenly, a loud boom erupted behind him. When he turned back, he was stunned in shock. The sand and gravel truck had just crashed into his car, forcefully pushing it towards a residential house by the roadside under the massive impact.
The two-story residential house had a large dent in its wall, raising a cloud of dust. His white BMW was almost completely destroyed, a pitiful sight.
Shi Xuan came to his side and hugged him tightly. She couldn’t bear to imagine what would have happened if he had still been in the car moments ago.
“Are you okay?” Her voice trembled, her frightened heartbeat unable to calm down.
“I’m fine.” Embracing her, he could feel her shoulders slightly shaking. He held her tenderly, “Fortunately, you called me out to look at the moon. Otherwise, I might not be standing here hugging you now.”
“You’re… okay.” Her voice choked. Only now could she somewhat understand his feelings when she was near death.
The moment she saw the sand and gravel truck speeding down, her heart seemed to leap from her chest, her liver and gall splitting with fear.
