Chapter 42: Car Accident
In the pitch-black night sky, bright stars twinkled, and as the deity transformed the game into a world, they also conjured countless stars in the universe.
A round moon, framed by stars, hung high in the night sky, casting a soft, silvery glow upon the ground.
The night sky was unusually beautiful tonight, but Lu Zhiyin was in no mood to appreciate the scenery.
She was lying in a disheveled state, the rough surface of the road beneath her.
Her vision was not clear; her sight was filled with a long, endless road and Leng Qing Qiu’s legs.
“Achoo…”
A cold wind blew past, causing her to sneeze and her body to shiver.
Although it wasn’t deep autumn yet, the wind at night was already very cold.
“…What’s wrong? Don’t you like her? Crawl, why aren’t you crawling yet?”
In front of her, Leng Qing Qiu stepped on the top of Lu Zhiyin’s head with her foot.
She rarely insulted people like this, but Lu Zhiyin’s actions were truly infuriating.
Unable to kill, this was the only way to vent her anger and resentment.
“…”
On the ground, Lu Zhiyin’s body lowered even further. She pursed her lips, feeling the weight on her head.
The feeling of her dignity being trampled underfoot was not pleasant; it was more unbearable than physical pain.
However, this was not the first time Lu Zhiyin’s dignity had been trampled like this. Being forced to publicly declare herself a pervert previously was no better than her current situation.
At least, no one else could see her like this, could they?
Clenching her fists, Lu Zhiyin could only comfort herself this way.
“Didn’t I tell you to crawl? Why aren’t you moving?”
Leng Qing Qiu seemed impatient. She walked in circles around Lu Zhiyin and kicked Lu Zhiyin’s side.
Lu Zhiyin inexplicably connected her with Qin An. The current her was strangely similar to Qin An when she bullied her.
It was just that Qin An’s words would carry various tones, sometimes playful, sometimes disdainful, sometimes curious. Leng Qing Qiu, however, didn’t have so many emotional changes; her words were like stagnant water, excessively calm.
“…Cough cough… Okay… I’ll crawl…”
With no time to think, the pain from the kick to her side made Lu Zhiyin cough twice. She tried to move her arms, her movements slow, showing her effort.
From the moment she woke up, her body lacked strength. She couldn’t even support herself properly. Rather than crawling, it was more like she was dragging herself forward with her arms.
“…Mmm… ha… ha…”
Dragging her body forward with difficulty, the road surface was occasionally littered with sharp small stones. In the dim night, Lu Zhiyin couldn’t accurately see the position of every stone.
Her hands inevitably got pricked by the scattered sharp stones, and each time, she would let out a small cry of pain.
These sounds, which were usually pleasant to Leng Qing Qiu, did not make her happy today. She even felt inexplicably uncomfortable.
“…”
Silently, Leng Qing Qiu watched Lu Zhiyin wriggle forward slowly on the ground. Her body was dragged along, and her elaborately decorated dress rubbed against the ground, occasionally making tearing sounds.
The fate of the white socks on the girl’s legs was no better. As they were forced over small stones, the white stockings were torn, and the delicate white skin of her legs beneath the stockings was also cut.
Gradually, the stockings became stained with red. Leng Qing Qiu remained silent. She stepped further away, leaving only Lu Zhiyin on the road.
“…”
Lu Zhiyin saw Leng Qing Qiu’s retreating footsteps. She said nothing, only pursed her lips and continued to crawl in pain.
Time ticked by, and Lu Zhiyin became increasingly fatigued.
She had been in a state of slumber all day, without eating or drinking, and now felt only dry-mouthed and parched.
Her crawling speed slowed down further, and finally, she could only lift her hands, unable to drag her body forward anymore.
Well… in fact, she hadn’t crawled very far. In nearly thirty minutes, she hadn’t even covered a hundred meters.
Her vision blurred. Lu Zhiyin turned her head and looked at Leng Qing Qiu standing by the roadside. She opened her mouth, but didn’t know what to say. In the end, she simply closed her mouth again and lay on the ground, motionless.
“…Move, don’t you like her? Why aren’t you moving? It seems your feelings for her are nothing special, right?”
Leng Qing Qiu knew Lu Zhiyin’s predicament, but she didn’t care how much discomfort Lu Zhiyin was in now. She just wanted to feel better.
“Ha… I… can’t crawl anymore…”
Lu Zhiyin’s voice was weak, but her face showed no change, as it was already as pale as paper, with no room to worsen.
“…Continue.”
As if completely deaf to Lu Zhiyin’s weakness, Leng Qing Qiu nudged Lu Zhiyin’s side with her toe.
Lu Zhiyin remained on the spot, motionless.
“I told you to continue, didn’t you hear me?”
She kicked Lu Zhiyin’s side again, this time with some force.
“…”
Unable to make a sound, Lu Zhiyin just gritted her teeth, fine beads of sweat appearing on her forehead.
The pain in her abdomen tormented her.
“…I… I know…”
The sound she squeezed out from between her teeth was very light, so light that Leng Qing Qiu could barely hear it.
However, Leng Qing Qiu did eventually hear it.
She stopped her foot and returned to the roadside, continuing to watch the extremely disheveled white-haired girl from afar.
Her mood was still depressed, and it hadn’t eased by tormenting Lu Zhiyin.
Leng Qing Qiu scratched her hair, not understanding what was happening to her.
Lu Zhiyin’s words from the previous night replayed in her mind, along with the moments the girl had followed her. The sound of the girl calling her name also echoed in her mind repeatedly.
Leng Qing Qiu simply closed her eyes and covered her ears.
“…”
Where Leng Qing Qiu could not see, Lu Zhiyin was desperately squeezing out the last drop of strength from her body, trying hard to continue crawling.
Her abdomen, because of Leng Qing Qiu’s kick, split open the unhealed knife wound, and blood began to flow out from under the girl little by little.
“…”
Unaware of this, Lu Zhiyin raised her head. In her sight, she saw a pair of orange headlights in the distance.
“…Damn it, why is someone lying in the middle of the road in the middle of the night?”
In the driver’s seat of the car, Qin An saw the girl lying on the ground.
She slammed on the brakes in a hurry, but the car still couldn’t stop in time, hitting the person and sending them flying.
Qin An’s father had asked her to take money to meet his newly adopted son and arrange accommodation for his new son.
Qin An was already extremely annoyed by this matter, and with the car accident, she became even more agitated.
Casually throwing the bag containing the money from the passenger seat out the car window, Qin An subconsciously thought the person on the ground was a swindler. She didn’t want any trouble and decided to simply use money to resolve unnecessary problems.
After throwing the banknotes, she didn’t stop, stepping on the accelerator again, and the car sped away.
From Lu Zhiyin’s perspective, utterly weak, she only saw a flash of lights, heard the harsh sound of tires, and then directly lost consciousness.
Protected by the deity’s power, she miraculously survived.
Well… gaining 100,000 yuan in an unexpected way, the car accident was also unexpected for Lu Zhiyin.
As for health… it was also reasonable to lose health due to a car accident, wasn’t it? Thus, the deity fulfilled Lu Zhiyin’s two requests and made Lu Zhiyin pay a sufficient price.
