Love Symphony: Let Your Heart Beat for Me-Chapter 143 - 076 The Complexity of Human Nature_2

At the red light intersection, Su Wan smoothly stopped the car and shifted into neutral: "That’s great. Yanchuan doesn’t lack good universities, you can give it a good thought."

After a while, Qin Mu pointed at the now green signal light and continued, "Actually, I’ve always wanted to study medicine... It’s just that I’m a science student, but looking at the past year’s cut-off scores, my grades seem a bit shaky for Yanchuan Medical University..."

Su Wan shifted gears and drove on, turning right without taking her eyes off the road. Just as she was about to respond to Qin Mu, a little boy suddenly darted out from the left. Su Wan was caught off guard and quickly jerked the steering wheel to the right. However, everything happened too abruptly, and she couldn’t control the brake and steering wheel properly, causing the Cayenne’s front to crash directly into the roadside utility pole with a loud "bang" echoing overhead on the street.

The car jolted violently with the impact, and the two people inside instinctively lurched forward, momentarily losing themselves.

The little boy who dashed out onto the road had already been pulled aside by his mother, the young woman grabbing the boy’s ear and loudly scolding, "You brat! Didn’t I tell you not to run around? Where are your ears? Do you know how close you were to getting hit by a car?"

After reprimanding, the young woman turned to look at the car with a damaged front, her face froze, and her heart filled with panic.

This accident was ultimately her son’s fault, and she couldn’t predict what responsibilities might fall upon her later. And this car looked extremely expensive; just relying on her husband’s monthly salary wouldn’t be enough for compensation.

She glanced at the two delicate-looking girls in the driver’s seat, calculated in her mind, and approached them.

Su Wan, dazed from the powerful impact, finally snapped out of it after a while. With her peripheral vision, she noticed Qin Mu lying motionless in the passenger seat, panicked, and hurriedly reached out to shake her, nearly crying with urgency, "Mumu! Mumu..." 𝚏𝕣𝐞𝗲𝐰𝕖𝐛𝐧𝕠𝕧𝚎𝚕.𝐜𝚘𝗺

"Oh my god..." Qin Mu raised her hand to rub her forehead and finally responded, "That really hurt."

Su Wan’s heart, which had leapt to her throat, instantly settled back down.

Breathing a sigh of relief, she hadn’t had time to process everything that happened when there was a loud pounding at the car window, strong enough to make the door tremble.

Startled, Su Wan turned back to see a young woman outside, her face covered in overly white foundation, paired with her tense expression, looking particularly ghastly.

Su Wan opened the car door and stepped out. Before she could speak, the woman in front of her started shouting, "How do you drive? Look at how scared my child is! Can you even drive?"

Su Wan turned to see the little boy who had suddenly darted onto the road squatting in front of her car, crying with a runny nose and out of breath.

Frowning slightly, she apologized, "I’m sorry, I didn’t react in time."

"Sorry, sorry, what’s the use of that!" The young woman, feeling she had the upper hand, grew increasingly domineering and arrogant in her tone, "Look at how frightened my son is by you!"

Qin Mu, who had just gotten out of the car, heard the woman’s tone and felt she was being unreasonable, quickly retorting, "Clearly your son was the one who ran the red light first!"

The young woman felt a twinge of guilt from Qin Mu’s words but maintained her composure and loudly retorted, "He’s just a child. How much can a child understand? If you had been driving properly, this wouldn’t have happened!"

At this moment, some passing pedestrians gathered around, their chatter growing louder.

Qin Mu glanced at the onlookers, feeling indignant and about to argue, but was stopped by Su Wan. The latter thought for a moment and kindly suggested, "How about I take you to the hospital for a check-up? I’ll cover the medical expenses."

Upon hearing Su Wan say she would cover it, the young woman’s expression eased slightly. She hugged her child and lowered her voice, "No need for a check-up. Just give me a few thousand yuan for emotional distress, and that’ll be enough."

Su Wan was taken aback. If she didn’t understand her intent by now, she’d be truly naïve.

She clearly remembered starting the car on a green light, and at the time, the pedestrian light was still red. Clearly, her son was the one who ran the red light first, causing the accident. Su Wan didn’t hold her accountable, yet she was brazenly asking for compensation.

Su Wan gave a helpless, somewhat sarcastic smile.

"How about this, you take your son with me to the hospital for a check-up and see what the doctor says. Or if you’re not satisfied, we can report to the police. Is that okay?" Su Wan tirelessly negotiated with her.
