My Multiple Identities Revealed After Marrying the Bigshot

Chapter 5: Chapter 5: You Shouldn't Harm Others for Such a Little Amount of Money



She didn't know how she could have so much strength, so much speed at that moment.

All she could think about was that she must save Lu Youxue, even if she herself ended up injured and crippled.

Lu Youxue, shocked by her shout, stopped in his tracks.

He watched as Lu Youxi, with tears streaming down her face, sprinted towards him.

Just as the motorcycle was about to hit Lu Youxue, Lu Youxi, in the nick of time, tackled him to the side of the road.

But she was still a bit slow, and Lu Youxi's leg was hit by the motorcycle.

The driver, seeing that he was about to hit someone, also swerved to the side.

So the motorcycle merely grazed Lu Youxi's leg as it passed, thankfully not running over it directly.

Even so, the injury to Lu Youxi was quite severe.

In trying to avoid them, the motorcycle lost balance and crashed into the roadside.

"Grab him! Don't let him escape!" Lu Youxi shouted loudly.

Lu Youxue and his classmates were so scared that they froze, not daring to move.

Lu Youxi, dragging her injured leg, rushed over.

At this moment, Lu Youxi completely ignored the pain in her leg; she was determined to catch this person!

The motorcyclist was pinned under the bike and couldn't free himself for a while.

By the time he finally managed to lift the bike and crawl out, Lu Youxi had already tackled him again.

Lu Youxi knew she was injured, and even though this man had been slightly crushed by the bike, she wasn't going to subdue him on her own.

So she put all her weight on the man, glancing back to see Lu Youxue and his friend still dazed.

Lu Youxi yelled, "Don't just stand there, come help!"

"Oh!" Lu Youxue was the first to react and rushed over promptly.

His friend followed closely behind.

The three of them together pinned the man down.

Lu Youxi recognized Lu Youxue's classmate.

There were many children from the village who went to school in the town, but only the two of them went home for lunch every day.

"Hu Zi, quickly go to the village chief's house, explain the situation to him, and ask him to bring his tricycle over to take me to the hospital," Lu Youxi told Hu Zi.

The village chief's tricycle had a flatbed in the back, ideal for loading goods and suitable for her current situation.

"And remember, don't tell anyone from my family," Lu Youxi instructed. "Go to the village chief quietly, don't let others know, especially not my family, and don't let the village chief say anything."

"You're not telling your family?" Hu Zi, now trembling with fear, asked.

"There's already something going on at home, and they can't be bothered with me," Lu Youxi said with her own plan in mind. "Just ask the village chief to come over, hurry! If we delay further, it might be too late to treat my leg!"

Lu Youxi scared Hu Zi, but she knew her own condition.

While she was hurt from the impact, it wasn't as severe as what Lu Youxue experienced in the past life.

Certainly, her leg wasn't broken.

Hu Zi, spurred by her urgency, immediately ran towards the village chief's house.

Luckily, they were already at the village entrance, and it wasn't far to the village chief's house.

Hu Zi, who usually sprinted around in the fields, was sturdy and fast.

It wasn't long before, although the village chief hadn't yet appeared, Lu Youxi could already hear the "putt-putt" sound of the tricycle starting up.

The village chief parked the tricycle in front of Lu Youxi. "I sent Hu Zi back home, what happened to you guys?"

Hu Zi had been so rushed and frantic that the village chief only got the gist of it.

Fearing a major incident, he hadn't delayed and came over regardless of whether he understood the situation completely.

Upon arrival, he saw Lu Youxi and Lu Youxue were still holding the driver, refusing to let go.

Lu Youxi and Lu Youxue both feared that the slightest relaxation might allow the driver to escape.

Especially Lu Youxue—he was furious the driver had hit Lu Youxi, and his eyes were red with anger, resolute that the man couldn't be allowed to escape.

"Just let me go, adults are here, where can I run? I won't run!" the driver said helplessly.

By now, his drunkenness had mostly sobered up, and knowing that Lu Youxi wasn't seriously hurt, he figured he might just have to pay some medical expenses, so he wasn't planning to run.

"Youxue, go home. I'll take your sister to the hospital and then report it to the police," the village chief took out his phone.

"Wait a minute!" Lu Youxi stopped the village chief. "Village chief, take him to the hospital before reporting to the police. I need him to be responsible for my medical expenses! If we report now and he's taken away by the police, what if he reneges on my medical fees later? He has to pay upfront!"

Driver: "…"

How could this girl still think of so much despite her injuries!

The village chief hadn't expected Lu Youxi to think so thoroughly, but then again, contemplating further, the man clearly wasn't from their village, so if they let him go, it would indeed be difficult to get the money later.

"Alright," the village chief nodded. "Then Youxue, you…"

"I'm not going home, I have to accompany my sister to the hospital," Lu Youxue insisted stubbornly.

The village chief, now worried about delaying Lu Youxi's treatment, gave in. If Lu Youxue wanted to come along, he could.

So, the village chief helped Lu Youxi onto the tricycle's flatbed, while Lu Youxue firmly held onto the driver, refusing to let go.

Despite Lu Youxue's young age, he was strong, using all his might; the driver, his strength diminished by alcohol, really couldn't break free.

After making sure Lu Youxi was securely aboard, the village chief and Lu Youxue together pushed the driver onto the flatbed.

The village chief then rode the tricycle, taking them to the town hospital.

Lu Youxue and Lu Youxi remained on the flatbed, keeping a vigilant eye on the driver.

The driver, under their intense gaze, felt uneasy all over.

At the hospital, the doctor treated Lu Youxi and, just as she had thought, the injury wasn't particularly serious, nor was the leg broken, but it would still need some time to heal.

The driver promptly paid all the treatment expenses and the cost of the medications.

Back in the room, he told Lu Youxi, "Young girl, I've paid for all the medical and treatment expenses. Let's settle this privately, no need to report it to the police. I'll give you…"

The driver reluctantly agreed, "two thousand yuan!"

Lu Youxue's eyes brightened.

For the Lu Family, two thousand was a significant amount.

But unexpectedly, Lu Youxi shook her head. "No, you were drunk driving. If I hadn't reacted quickly, my brother's injuries would definitely have been worse than mine; his whole life would have been ruined. I was lucky, my injuries weren't severe, but you must learn a lesson. If you continue to drink and drive, others might get hurt next time. And they might not be as lucky as I was."

It might have been like what happened to Lu Youxue in his previous life, or possibly even worse.

She couldn't risk harming others for such a small amount of money, even if those potential victims were unknown and it was uncertain whether it would happen.

For the people in their village, two thousand yuan wasn't a trivial amount.

But Lu Youxi, who had once held the position of CEO at the Lin Group in her previous life, wouldn't consider such a small sum significant, refusing to lose a whole watermelon just to pick up a sesame seed.

The driver, thinking the children from the village were easy to deceive and that a small amount of money would seem a lot to them, hadn't expected Lu Youxi to be unmoved.
