I Treat You as My Sister, But You Want to be My Wife?!-Chapter 61 - Car Accident_1

In the field of operations, one must give it enough attention.

Shen Dong valued this highly and was generous with spending.

A good work, paired with good operation, might possibly become popular.

…

In the evening.

After working out, Shen Dong and Chen Yuyan were preparing to go to bed when Shen Dong’s phone rang.

“Who’s calling so late?” Shen Dong reached for the phone on the nightstand, “It’s Yao’s call.”

Shen Dong, with flushed cheeks and the afterglow lingering, leaned her head against Shen Dong’s chest, and said, “Yao must have something important, or else he wouldn’t call so late at night, hurry up and answer it.”

Shen Dong thought the same and answered the call, “Yao, what’s up so late?”

“Shen Dong, I’ve gone viral!” Li Kaiyao’s excited voice came through, “That short video, in just half a day, has surpassed twenty million views, over two million likes, more than a hundred thousand comments, over two hundred thousand shares, over a hundred thousand saves, and my followers have increased by seven hundred thousand in just this half-day!”

This achievement was within Shen Dong’s expectations, and he calmly said, “Yao, don’t get too excited, this is just the beginning.

Many more of your videos will be better than this one in the future.”

“Holy shit, I can’t help but be excited.” Li Kaiyao was still thrilled, “I never thought that my first food video would explode like this; I am truly convinced by you!”

If face to face, Li Kaiyao would have given Shen Dong a big hug.

He was truly impressed by Shen Dong.

He had been making short videos about sports cars for months without much success.

Shen Dong suggested he switch to becoming a food vlogger, making videos about eating, and he became an instant hit.

It had to be said that Shen Dong really had some incredible talent; you had to give him that!

“Yao, as long as you keep going down this path, you’ll find this is just child’s play.

You’ll become a super internet celebrity, so don’t get too excited, okay?” Shen Dong laughed.

“Haha, with your support, I believe it.” Li Kaiyao laughed heartily.

The two chatted a bit more and then ended the call.

…

The next day.

Shen Dong and Chen Yuyan headed out to the company.

Halfway there, Chen Yuyan suddenly exclaimed, “Watch out!”

She saw an old man suddenly dart out from the side of the road, crossing the street abruptly.

Shen Dong saw it too, quickly stamped on the brake, and jerked the steering wheel hard.

Bang!

The Porsche hit a roadside tree, smashing the front of the car to pieces.

Fortunately, the Porsche had a high safety rating, and the airbags deployed on time, preventing any serious injuries to the two people inside.

Chen Yuyan was so frightened that her face turned pale, and she was in shock.

Shen Dong took a while to comfort her before Chen Yuyan’s emotions gradually settled down.

“It’s all because of that old man who didn’t follow the traffic rules and crossed the road recklessly.

I’m going to find him and settle this.”

Shen Dong was very angry.

After comforting Chen Yuyan, he got out of the car.

However, upon looking around, he could not see the old man from before.

“Buddy, that old man left already.”

A passerby who had witnessed everything had not left.

Seeing Shen Dong get out of the car, presumably looking for the old man, he said something.

“He left?” Shen Dong’s face looked unsightly, and he felt extremely angry inside.

He knew that seeking accountability from such a person would be troublesome.

“Dude, when you run into something like this, you can only accept your bad luck.

I think that old man isn’t someone with a lot of money.

Even if you go to great lengths to find him, he won’t be able to compensate you much,” the passerby said.

“Sigh,” Shen Dong let out a long sigh.

He knew that what the passerby said was right.

Issues like this, indeed, one can only accept their bad luck.

However, just then, the old man returned, pulling a six or seven-year-old boy with him.

“Young man, I’m sorry about just now.

I was in a hurry to get across to help out.

My grandson was being bullied by some older students, and I needed to get over there,” he said.

“I’m glad you’re okay; otherwise, my conscience would be troubled for a lifetime.

Your car is damaged, and I will compensate you, even if I have to sell my pot and iron to do it.”

The elderly man’s clothing was not in good condition, and from the looks of it, his living situation was certainly not great.

Asking him for compensation would likely be more than he could afford.

Moreover, Shen Dong thought that what the old man was saying seemed sincere.

The little boy had a bruised face and a swollen nose, likely the results of a beating.

“Forget it; you don’t need to pay me anything.

Just go on, but you really shouldn’t cross the road like that in the future.

It’s best to use the crosswalk, and even if you are in a real rush, you should watch out for cars.

Otherwise, it’s harmful to both yourself and others,” Shen Dong said with a sigh, waving his hand, deciding not to pursue compensation.

Had the old man been obstinate and unreasonable, he might have insisted on compensation.

But the old man took the initiative to admit his mistake, explained his reasons, and came back to sincerely apologize, indicating his willingness to compensate.

Such an attitude greatly reduced Shen Dong’s anger.

It showed that the old man was someone who understood the situation well.

Since he and Chen Yuyan were unharmed and were not lacking money, there was no need to demand compensation.

“Young man, thank you.

I don’t behave like this normally; I always use the crosswalks when crossing the street.

Today was just too urgent, seeing my grandson being beaten, I was rushing to get across, and the crosswalk is too far from here, so I crossed the street directly,” the old man said gratefully.

“Alright, just be more careful in the future,” Shen Dong said, nodding his head.

“Tian, quickly thank the young man,” the old man urged his grandson to express gratitude.

“Thank you, brother,” the little boy said timidly.

“No need to be polite,” Shen Dong said with a smile, patting the little boy’s head, and then said to the old man, “Considering the way your grandson looks, you should take him to the hospital to have his injuries treated.”

“Of course, thank you, young man,” the old man expressed his gratitude once more before leaving with the little boy.

At this point, Chen Yuyan came down from the car.

“Honey, are you alright?” Shen Dong walked over, took Chen Yuyan’s hand, and asked with concern.

“I’m fine,” Chen Yuyan shook her head.

“You must have heard what just happened.

You don’t blame me for handling it this way, do you?” Shen Dong asked.

“Of course not; you handled it well.

That old man’s family is probably not well off.

Demanding money from him could have crushed a family.

He came over to apologize on his own and offered to compensate, which shows that he has a good heart and is someone who usually follows traffic rules.

It was just the worry for his grandson’s safety that made him act that way,” Chen Yuyan said.
