2768 Mind Went Blank for a Second?

How was it possible that someone dared to kill Leng Shaoming? They were digging their own graves!

Zhan Zhiyin understood that politics was like a battlefield, and Leng Shaoming wasn't just in politics, he was also a member of the Leng family. It was hard for him to stay out of schemes, but it didn't mean that he could accept it.

If she knew who dared to scheme against him, she would surely make them pay for it.

"I'm not sure, but it's very likely," said Leng Shaoming.

He thought it was more likely to be a scheme, because he saw the big truck driving normally, then it suddenly turned right when it got close to his car.

It might be an accident, but Leng Shaoming didn't think that was the case.

Either way, they needed to conduct an investigation to find out the truth. It was too early to come to a conclusion and it was disrespectful for the truck driver.

"We must figure it out after we get out. If it's really a scheme…" said Zhan Zhiyin with determination. "We must make him pay a heavy price."

"Of course," said Leng Shaoming. He wasn't weak. Although he was an upright man, he knew that he should protect himself first. He wouldn't hesitate to fight back against whoever dared to scheme against him.

After the two finished talking, they had already swum to the shore, but they were extremely tired.

"Are you alright?"

On the shore, many people were waiting for them. When they saw them swimming over, they asked them with concern.

"We're fine." Leng Shaoming and Zhan Zhiyin answered.

Although they survived, they were still slightly injured and weakend. Therefore, they needed other people's support to walk away.

Back at the roadside, the driver who caused the accident also came over. The driver didn't go to the river to help Leng Shaoming and Zhan Zhiyin, because when he hit Leng Shaoming's car his forehead was knocked on the steering wheel. He was also injured, so the crowd let him wait at the side.

Although he caused the accident, people thought it was just an accident, so no one blamed him. They only asked him why he couldn't be more careful.

After all, nobody wanted to see such a serious accident. If it already happened, the driver should take the responsibility, but if the driver ran away, people would criticize him heavily.

Afterwards, the truck driver made a sincere apology and said that his mind had just gone blank for a moment. He didn't know what happened and knocked into their car. He said he was very sorry.

Because he had a good attitude no one criticized him.

"Are you alright? I'm sorry. I'm terribly sorry. I'll pay all the compensation." The truck driver sincerely apologized to Leng Shaoming and Zhan Zhiyin.

Leng Shaoming and Zhan Zhiyin stared at him. They saw through him, so the man was a little scared.

Why did they focus on him like that? Did they discover something?

No, it was impossible.

Although the truck driver soon calmed down, Leng Shaoming and Zhan Zhiyin saw his panic.

It didn't mean anything, but they were sure that the truck driver was lying.

Because of the truck driver's reaction, they believed it was likely to be a scheme, but they had no evidence so they couldn't question him right away.

Before Leng Shaoming and Zhan Zhiyin said anything, someone spoke all of a sudden. "They were knocked down to the river. How is it possible that they're fine? They're very lucky that they aren't dead."

"Right, you should have a medical check at the hospital."

"Well, the truck driver should be more careful! He could have killed them."

"What if they were really killed? Their families would be heart-broken. No matter how much you pay them, lives are priceless!"

"…"

Not everyone thought the truck driver should get away with it just because he gave an apology. Even if it was an accident, he caused it to happen. Therefore, it was right that they criticized him.

"Sorry, I'm really sorry. My mind just went blank for a second. I didn't know what I was doing and I knocked into their car…" Facing the crowd's criticisms, the truck driver didn't dare to argue with them. He had to apologize sincerely once more. However, he had a totally different idea in his mind.

He failed to do the task, so he would be punished.

Besides, he was guilty, so he was afraid of being exposed.

"Well, it's unavoidable sometimes. Since it happened, we must deal with it. Luckily, it was not serious," said Leng Shaoming. He was very considerate, but he was implying something different from other people's thoughts.

The crowd thought the truck driver could leave after paying the compensation since it was an accident, but Leng Shaoming was going to put the truck driver in jail, because he believed it was a scheme.

"Right, nobody wants it to happen, but since it already happened, just deal with it. There is no need to argue."

"Yeah, they survived a catastrophe and are bound to have good fortune later on!"

"Right!"

"…"

Because this place was a little far from the city center, the police didn't arrive until twenty minutes later, but the ambulance was still absent.

Seeing that Leng Shaoming and Zhan Zhiyin weren't seriously injured, the police asked them some basic questions, otherwise they would have to follow them to the hospital.

They should go to the hospital, but the police could save some energy by asking them some basic questions now.

Because both of them weren't seriously injured, Leng Shaoming and Zhan Zhiyin didn't care much about it.

After finding out about Leng Shaoming's family background, the police became very polite.

Leng Shaoming was younger than them, but had a much higher status. They were common policemen, while Leng Shaoming was someone with authority.

Leng Shaoming didn't tell them about his suspicions, because there was no evidence. Moreover, he didn't know which fraction this group of policemen belonged to, so he didn't trust them.

Anyway, since he had his suspicions, he would order his people to investigate it.

Therefore, after answering some basic questions, Leng Shaoming and Zhan Zhiyin went to the hospital. The truck driver also went there in the police car.

If it was just an accident, Leng Shaoming wouldn't tell his family because he didn't want to worry them, but he thought it might be a scheme, so he sent Leng Yuanqian a message along the way.

After all, there were outsiders, so he couldn't call them.
