"Bill, should I get you another car to ride in?"
"Boss! Are you abandoning me?!" Bill Bragg panicked upon hearing that, "I’m really unlucky today! I almost died just buying a loaf of bread! Where do you expect me to go without any peace of mind?"
This kid seemed quite traumatized. Well, that made sense given that a steel rod came within less than twenty centimeters of his privates...
"Alright," Wang Hao started the car, "I’ll drop Miss Ice Princess home first, but normally shouldn’t you be staying at a hotel at night? Where do you plan to sleep in my car?"
"Of course, I’ll stay at your place, Boss," Bill’s face was full of grievances like a scapegoat, "Where else could I go? I feel unsafe everywhere! Only by your side do I feel a bit secure..."
You mean to say you’ve been sleeping at my place recently?! We don’t have enough room!
"Screech!" Wang Hao slammed on the brakes and looked back at him like he saw a ghost, "Dream on! How can I possibly have you sleep at my place every day? My place isn’t that big!"
"I don’t care, I don’t care, I don’t care!" Bill shook his head resolutely, "No matter what you say, Boss, I’m sticking with you! You can’t leave me behind during this time!"
Damn it! Is he going to cling and pester me again?!
"You’re ruthless!" Wang Hao gritted his teeth as he dropped Bai Yaning off at her home, then headed home with Bill, "I challenge you to try sleeping on the sofa! Hmph, dreaming of me giving up my bed for you!"
That bed was the one I personally went and bought, and even won a mobile phone as a bonus. It holds sentimental value!
Bill nodded fiercely, "No problem! The sofa is fine too!"
"Hey, didn’t I already help dispel the evil qi for you today?" While waiting for the light, Wang Hao looked at the big truck ahead and commented, "I even sent the Heart of the Ocean off, so why are you still so scared?"
"A little caution never hurts!" Bill shrugged his shoulders then looked around nervously, "Like that big truck in front, what if it’s hauling gravel that falls and buries me when I’m unlucky? Or what if that utility pole over there falls over? These are uncontrollable, who knows what might happen..."
"Can you stop talking about such bad things?" Bill’s words sent shivers down Wang Hao’s spine, "Have some respec... Holy shit! Watch out!"
Suddenly, he felt the whole car roar as it violently crashed into the big truck in front of them!
The Maserati twisted out of shape, a truck unable to brake in time pushed it from behind, and with the truck in front unmoved by the heavy load of gravel, their car got sandwiched like a flattened sandwich!
And that was not all, the bucket of the truck in front opened due to the intense pressure, "crash!" The gravel it was carrying poured downwards!
"Holy shit, your jinx!" Wang Hao desperately crawled towards Bill in the car, then fiercely propped up the roof in the limited space.
If the roof was completely crushed by the gravel, they would be buried alive!
"Boss! Boss, I’m freaking scared!" Bill’s pupils dilated massively, looking at Wang Hao as if he was a god, "Boss, save me!"
"Damn it, hold on!" With immense weight pressing down, Wang Hao shouted aloud, "Quick, try to find a way out first!"
"Screech!" Nearly a ton of gravel weighed down, and despite Wang Hao’s strength, he was but an ordinary man and it was nearly too much to bear. Fortunately, at that moment, the car window deformed and shattered under severe pressure, and Bill forcefully shoved the car door open, then quickly crawled out of the car.
"Ah!!!" With Bill out, only Wang Hao was left. He summoned the last of his strength to hold on and then slowly moved out.
Luckily, although the car was sandwiched between two trucks and gravel fell, the front truck didn’t flip, so not much gravel actually came down.
Otherwise, if the front truck had flipped and buried the car with gravel, even gods couldn’t save them.
"Boss! Are you okay?!" Bill rushed forward desperately to help Wang Hao hold up the car roof as the bodyguards also rushed up, struggling to help Wang Hao out.
"Holy shit, that was too thrilling!" In just about a minute or so, Wang Hao was drenched in cold sweat, feeling chilly with the evening breeze blowing.
"Boss, I told you!" Bill was almost in tears, "You absolutely can’t leave me behind! If it wasn’t for you, I’d be dead now!"
If you hadn’t jinxed it, maybe it could have been better!
But at that moment, he had no mood to consider those things. Wang Hao sighed and said, "You fool, don’t just say anything next time, keep it low-key, do you understand?"
At that moment, nearby pedestrians had already noticed the accident and swarmed around it in a large circle!
"Another car accident, huh? Look how smashed that car is—it’s a disaster!"
"Yes, who knows if anyone died? It still looks like a nice car though!"
"No one died. I saw two people climb out of it, but it’s a shame about the car..."
"That truck driver must have been driving fatigued; otherwise, this wouldn’t have happened! I always say, don’t park in front of or behind large vehicles—it’s too dangerous!"
People around were chattering nonstop, and Wang Hao looked at his beloved car...
Well, this car is wrecked again, and this time it’s definitely totaled. Look at how crushed it is; it’s almost flat...
"Don’t be sad, boss," Bill Bragg said as he looked at the totaled Maserati. "It’s just a Maserati; no big deal. When we get back, I’ll give you my Bentley Zeus as a welcome gift!"
Huh? The Bentley Zeus?
That one that’s the only one in the world? Oh man, that car was really nice. To trade a Maserati for a Bentley Zeus—that’s a deal I can appreciate!
"Yes, you’re being too generous," Wang Hao extended his hand and patted Bill Bragg on the shoulder. "Since you’re so sincere, I’ll reluctantly accept it."
"Thank you for accepting, boss!" Bill Bragg was overjoyed, and pulled Wang Hao along: "Boss, you’ve saved me once again. I’ll have my lawyer handle everything here; it feels pretty chilly. Let’s hurry home!"
"This..." Wang Hao looked around. Since the accident was being handled by others, and although he and Bill Bragg were a bit shaken, neither was injured. It seemed best to just hurry home and sleep!
And he was even making a profit on a car, haha!
"Okay," Wang Hao nodded. At that moment, a bodyguard had already driven a Mercedes-Benz S-class to their location, and Bill Bragg said, "Brother Hao, let’s go home first; I’m really scared!"
This trip turned out to be quite smooth; as soon as Wang Hao brought Bill Bragg home, he was so exhausted that he immediately lay down on his bed.
Damn, what an intense day...
"You scoundrel back already?" His mom, who was sitting on the sofa and browsing her phone, turned and asked, "Today Ningning came back with that Bill Bragg, did you see them?!" And then finally noticed Bill Bragg: "Who is this? Your friend? Wait, why does he look so familiar?"
His mom stood up and orbited Bill Bragg, her face full of confusion: "Could it possibly be..."
"You aren’t wrong," Wang Hao said listlessly. "This is Bill Bragg..."
"What? Where? Where?" Just then, his dad burst out of the room and exclaimed, "Has our rival actually come to our doorstep?!"
"Hello Uncle and Auntie!" Bill Bragg was taken aback and almost jumped out the door. "I’ve stopped pursuing Miss Ice Princess, boss said that we are not compatible as per the Five Elements, it’s not suitable!"
"Really?" His mom looked at him sideways. "Are you sure this isn’t just a roundabout rescue mission?"
"No, absolutely not!" Bill Bragg frantically shook his head. "I just want to get closer to the boss..."
"You want some bromance? Get closer, huh," his dad clearly had a very poor impression of Bill Bragg: "You went from a love rival to being a lackey, it feels a bit weird. Anyway, I’m afraid our place isn’t spacious enough. I’ve heard you’re pretty loaded, why don’t you stay in a hotel?"
"I just thought it’d be safer here..." Bill Bragg looked around and then decisively said, "But don’t worry, Uncle and Auntie, I promise not to disturb everyone’s rest."
As he spoke, he opened the door and walked out. Wang Hao curiously asked, "Where are you going?"
Bill Bragg matter-of-factly said, "Boss, I thought about it, and squeezing in together isn’t really convenient. But don’t worry, I have a solution." Saying this, he stepped out and started making phone calls.
Wang Hao and his parents exchanged puzzled looks—what the heck was this guy doing?
Soon, led by a black Bentley Zeus, followed by an impressive line of sixteen Mercedes-Benz S-classes, a formidable convoy stormed into Wang Hao’s residential area.
The security guards didn’t dare stop them, as neither the never-seen-before Bentley Zeus leading the convoy nor the license plate reading "AS8888" were things a mere security guard could intervene in.
The ordinary residents who were cooling off under the shade of trees in the community saw this motorcade and gathered around curiously—
"What’s going on? Who is this big shot coming to our community?"
"This motorcade is incredible; look at that license plate, it’s definitely something only a very powerful person could get!"
"This must be someone from one of the four big families, right?"
