Chapter 100: Chapter 99: Out of Danger, Xu Li’s Family’s Recognition!

12:18 AM.

A Mercedes GLS stopped on the roadside at the scene of Xu Jiantao’s car accident.

Opening the door and getting out, Xu Li saw the license plate on the back of the JAC T6 pickup and couldn’t help but cry out.

"It’s my brother’s car!!!"

"Quick, save him!"

Without another word, Jiang Tao and Xu Li rushed down the road.

Click, click, click!

Jiang Tao fiercely pulled the door handle a few times and found that the door was locked from the inside, completely inoperable.

At this moment, he was extremely grateful that when he dialed 120 for emergency services, he also called 119 for fire rescue.

Even though today was already the first day of the New Year, and government departments were on holiday.

Given the potential for various emergencies.

Many emergency departments had staff on duty, which deserved high praise.

After waiting for about ten minutes, the people from 119 arrived even before those from 120. 𝚏𝗿𝗲𝐞𝐰𝚎𝕓𝐧𝚘𝘃𝗲𝐥.𝐜𝚘𝕞

Professionals do professional work.

What left Jiang Tao and Xu Li helpless, the professionals managed to open the car door in no time.

The firefighting rescuers are used to rescue work, having dealt with various traffic accident scenes.

Naturally, they have more experience than Jiang Tao and Xu Li.

Without Jiang Tao’s reminder, the firefighters didn’t move Xu Jiantao but waited quietly for medical assistance.

Another five minutes later, the ambulance arrived belatedly, its red and blue warning lights flashing.

Fortunately, there were enough people on site; otherwise, just a few medical staff wouldn’t have been able to move Xu Jiantao.

The ambulance sped all the way, and by the time they reached the forensic hospital, the uncle who had received Xu Li’s call, along with his father-in-law and mother-in-law, had arrived.

Xu Li’s aunt looked at her son, who was unconscious and covered in blood, and burst into loud sobs.

Her piercing cries rang out into the silent night sky, far and wide.

Yet in a place like a hospital, such scenes were not uncommon.

Tonight alone, there were more than just Xu Jiantao in the ER due to drinking, car accidents, or various sudden illnesses.

During the festive season, when friends and family gather for drinks, it’s supposed to be a joyful event.

But if not handled properly, a celebration can turn into a funeral.

There are some things that you never think will happen to you until they do.

Only by experiencing it firsthand can you truly feel the preciousness of life and maintain reverence for it.

At the window at the end of the ER corridor.

Xu Li hugged Jiang Tao’s arm, resting her head on his shoulder, her eyes red.

"Honey, I really regret it..."

Xu Li’s sudden words left Jiang Tao bewildered.

"Regret what?"

Jiang Tao lowered his head to look into Xu Li’s recently tear-stained eyes.

"I regret living apart from you these six years."

"Life is short, and no one knows whether tomorrow or an accident will arrive first."

"I was so foolish; even if I had to follow you to Beijing to beg, I should have been with you."

"Life is so short, with so many accidents; how many six years do we have together? I was so foolish..."

As Xu Li spoke, tears uncontrollably rolled down her cheeks, and she hugged Jiang Tao’s arm even tighter.

Women are emotional creatures; seeing her cousin’s ordeal tonight had a profound impact on Xu Li.

"You silly, what’s past is past, talking about it now is useless."

"From now on, the three of us will be together every day, never apart again; that’s the life we deserve."

Jiang Tao pulled Xu Li closer to him.

At this moment, it seemed their souls formed a deeper and stronger bond.

2:30 AM.

After more than two hours of rescue efforts.

Xu Jiantao finally was out of life-threatening danger, but remained in a coma.

As to when he might wake up, only the heavens knew.

"Jiang Tao, thank you, you saved your cousin’s life."

"The doctor said if he was brought in half an hour later, his optimal golden rescue time would have passed."

Xu Wenchao, Xu Li’s uncle, tried to stay strong, suppressing his grief as he expressed his gratitude to Jiang Tao.

Now, thinking back, Xu Wenchao felt a sense of fear.

What made him even more furious and heartbroken was.

Even now, with the surgery completed, they still couldn’t contact his daughter-in-law Yan Ping!

Xu Wenchao and Xu Li’s aunt, Gao Yunting, had called their daughter-in-law dozens of times without success.

Messages on WeChat couldn’t get through, either. Hundreds of messages went unanswered.

She was probably off somewhere celebrating New Year’s Eve with the kids, trying to be trendy like young people!

With a daughter-in-law like that, could you expect her to find out her husband was in an accident late at night?

If it weren’t for Jiang Tao and Xu Li discovering Xu Jiantao’s accident early on, he might already have been dead by now.

If she had come then, it wouldn’t have been for rescue but straight to the morgue.

"Uncle, you don’t have to be so formal with us. We’re family, saying thank you makes it distant."

Jiang Tao didn’t have any intention of seeking favor in return.

Even without any rewards or benefits, he wouldn’t have turned a blind eye to such a situation.

"No need for thanks; Jiang Tao, Lili, if you ever need anything from Uncle in the future, just ask."

"Your brother owes you his life, and it’s a debt our family will repay."

Xu Wenchao patted Jiang Tao’s arm, looking at him with gratitude mixed with guilt.

This was the first time he began to truly accept Jiang Tao as his niece’s husband.

When Xu Li was unmarried, her aunt Gao Yunting, also Xu Wenchao’s wife, introduced her to various high-quality matchmaking candidates.

One of the wealthiest candidates had assets of seventy to eighty million, and the one with the most power was of the rank of deputy director.

Compared to those wealthy and prestigious suitors.

Aside from being good-looking and honest, Jiang Tao had no other advantages.

This incident made Xu Wenchao completely change his attitude towards Jiang Tao.

"Uncle, don’t say things like owing or not owing, we’re family, the most important thing now is to take care of my brother."

Seeing her uncle being so polite to her husband, Xu Li felt moved to tears.

After more than six years, her family was finally beginning to accept her husband.

This change filled her with immense consolation.

"Ah, you know, during the New Year, we’ve troubled you too much."

"Once your brother’s condition stabilizes, after the New Year, Uncle will invite you over for a proper thank you feast."

Xu Wenchao wasn’t just being polite; his words were full of sincerity.

"Yan Ping!!! Where have you been! Jiantao is now at the judicial hospital! Come here quickly!!"

As Jiang Tao and others were talking, a woman’s furious roar suddenly echoed down the corridor.

Everyone looked towards the source of the sound to see Xu Li’s aunt, Gao Yunting, holding the phone to her ear, calling.

It seemed she had finally reached out to her eldest sister-in-law, Yan Ping.

Her son had just returned from the brink of death, still unconscious.

Meanwhile, her daughter-in-law had gone off partying for the New Year, with hundreds of calls unanswered.

Even someone as composed as Xu Li’s aunt couldn’t suppress her anger.

Jiang Tao and Xu Li exchanged glances, unsure how to comment on the situation.

Yet, their sister-in-law’s actions were indeed excessive.

No matter how crowded a New Year’s event might be, you wouldn’t miss so many calls, would you?
