3451 Wang Pengyu Died at the Scene
What Ning Guanjie didn’t know was that Leng Xiaoyao was indeed an immortal. Cultivators were mortals on earth, but after ascending, they would become immortals in the heavens.
However, it wasn’t easy to reach that step.
Even if they did, they might not be able to withstand the tribulation of ascension.
…
When they fell, someone immediately came to check on them, so Ning Muqing couldn’t call Leng Xiaoyao and tell her about what happened.
Upon seeing that Ning Guanjie and Ning Muqing were only slightly injured, everyone was surprised.
Especially after seeing Wang Pengyu die on the spot, they looked at Ning Guanjie and Ning Muqing in amazement.
“Wow! This man died, but they only suffered minor injuries. That’s amazing! I thought even if they didn’t die, they would be seriously injured!”
“Maybe they’ve done a lot of good deeds! A miracle happened!”
“Right, I saw it. The car behind them hit their car. However, the people who were hit were fine while the driver who hit them died on the spot.”
“Did the driver intentionally hit them? Do they have a grudge?”
“I think there is a grudge, otherwise why would that person intentionally hit them?”
“However, the car that was hit fell more severely, but the people inside were fine. The car that hit them didn’t fall as severely, but the man in it died. Perhaps he’s done a lot of bad things!”
“Right, he’s done too many bad things, so his life came to an end.”
“…”
Ning Guanjie and Ning Muqing felt bad when they saw that Wang Pengyu was the one who hit them and died.
Although they had long suspected that Wang Pengyu wouldn’t let it go so easily, they really didn’t expect it to be him!
The anger they had towards Wang Pengyu dissipated at this moment.
After all, he was already dead, so what was the point of holding onto hatred?
“Miss, do you know this man?”
An old lady asked Ning Muqing.
“He’s my ex-boyfriend,” said Ning Muqing.
Upon hearing that, many people immediately imagined a story.
Did this woman change her mind and get together with the man in front of her, abandoning her ex-boyfriend? And then did her ex-boyfriend hold a grudge and want to die with them?
If that was the case, then they should be the ones who died!
Feeling the change in everyone’s gaze, Ning Guanjie explained. “This man is my sister’s ex-boyfriend. He’s dead, and we shouldn’t expose his dirty secrets, but in order to avoid misunderstandings, I think it’s necessary for me to explain it. Our family is a prominent family in the capital city, but we didn’t despise this man because of his ordinary background. However, he betrayed my sister with her good friend and wanted to cheat my sister out of her money. He was exposed after being discovered. Despite that, my sister only broke up with him and didn’t do anything else to him. However, he felt that he didn’t get what he deserved and tried to reconcile with my sister several times. We never thought that his mentality was so twisted that he would want to destroy everything when he couldn’t get it.”
Everyone felt sorry for Ning Muqing. It was this man’s fault after all, yet he still wanted to harm others? He deserved to die!
Soon, the police and ambulances arrived. Although Ning Guanjie and Ning Muqing were only slightly injured, they still went to the hospital first.
Because they were involved in the accident, the police followed them and asked them some questions.
Ning Muqing told everything about herself and Wang Pengyu. She didn’t hide anything.
However, why did Wang Pengyu die while they survived?
They didn’t say that it was because they wore the talismans given by Leng Xiaoyao. If they did, it would bring trouble to Leng Xiaoyao, so they could only say that they were destined to live longer.
Then Ning Muqing told Leng Xiaoyao everything that happened over the phone once the police finished recording their statements.
“Xiaoyao, this is the second time you’ve saved me. I really don’t know how to thank you. A meal isn’t enough to express my gratitude,” said Ning Muqing.
“We are friends. There’s no need to talk about repaying anything. As long as you’re okay, that’s all that matters. Wang Pengyu died because it was his fate.” Leng Xiaoyao replied, surprised by Wang Pengyu’s fate but feeling no sympathy.
Since she considered Ning Muqing a friend, she didn’t need her to show too much gratitude.
However, she hoped that Ning Muqing was a person who repaid kindness, as only such people had a good character.
“I can’t believe he was such a crazy person and was willing to do such extreme things,” said Ning Muqing, still struggling to accept Wang Pengyu’s actions. Before she knew his true face, he was a gentle and considerate person.
Although it was all an act, it was what she had experienced. So subconsciously, she believed that Wang Pengyu should be a gentle and considerate person, not the psychologically twisted and extremist person he turned out to be.
Despite everything, she had loved him once, and that was an unchangeable fact. After Wang Pengyu died, her hatred disappeared and was replaced by a sense of lamentation.
After the police recorded their statements and investigated, they found that what Ning Guanjie and Ning Muqing said was true. Therefore, they didn’t need to investigate further.
Since Wang Pengyu was already dead, Ning Guanjie and Ning Muqing didn’t pursue the matter any further.
However, Wang Pengyu’s mother came to demand compensation the next morning.
She went straight to the Ning family’s company and said that if Ning Muqing hadn’t broken up with Wang Pengyu, he wouldn’t have done such a stupid thing, even though he had calculated against and betrayed Ning Muqing first.
She also said that Ning Muqing hadn’t suffered any losses.
Anyway, it wasn’t a big deal if her son had another woman outside.
It was clear that Wang Pengyu wanted to harm Ning Muqing. If he hadn’t actively tried to hurt her, he would have been fine and wouldn’t have paid any price for betraying her.
The only price he paid was losing his job, but he could still find work in another company.
His work ability was good despite his poor character.
Therefore, no one sympathized with Wang Pengyu’s mother no matter what she said. Instead, her words only made people dislike Wang Pengyu even more after his death.
Wang Pengyu’s mother didn’t make a fuss for long before the police took her away. So nothing happened in the end.
Although Leng Xiaoyao’s kindness to Ning Muqing couldn’t be repaid with just a meal, Ning Muqing still insisted on treating her to a meal after school that day instead of waiting for the weekend.
