Chapter 282: Chapter 282: Cannot Be Known by Others

Having waited until they exited the private room, Fu Ting breathed a long sigh of relief.

As someone’s daughter-in-law, she didn’t feel it was her place to say much.

However, Jiang Chengren understood her meaning.

"Let it be, from now on we’ll just say we’re busy with business and avoid coming here too often."

As a fairly traditional man, Jiang Chengren placed great importance on filial piety.

But it seemed Jiang Qing had gradually exhausted this sentiment.

Upon hearing this, a smile finally appeared on Fu Ting’s face, "Aze, let’s go home."

Jiang Chengren drove out the family car that was parked in front of the restaurant plaza.

As usual, he had his son sit in the middle seat in the back.

Jiang Chengren had heard that it was the safest part of the car.

Though not many families owned a car nationwide, the Jiang Family had two, and Jiang Chengren had learned to drive at the earliest opportunity.

Even though they had a driver, Jiang Chengren preferred to take the wheel himself, feeling that he could better protect his family that way.

There were few private cars on the roads, and Fu Ting sat in the passenger seat, discussing some business matters with her husband.

Jiang Chengren slightly opened the window in the front seat, letting in the late summer night breeze.

It carried the residual warmth of the daylight yet hinted at the slight intoxication of an approaching autumn.

Jiang Chengren inserted a cassette into the car stereo, and gentle music flowed, prompting a shared smile between the spouses.

The wind made them drowsy.

Suddenly, a truck appeared at the intersection behind them.

The driver focused on the license plate of the private car ahead and stepped on the gas to follow.

With his son in the car, Jiang Chengren was always vigilant about road conditions.

The moment the truck caught up, he sensed something was off.

"This car..."

Before he could finish, the truck in the rearview mirror suddenly accelerated and smashed toward them with force.

Jiang Chengren clenched his teeth and tried to speed up, but there wasn’t enough time.

The inevitable consequences of such a mismatched collision were clear.

Fu Ting couldn’t help but scream.

Jiang Chengren instinctively closed his eyes.

Only Jiang Jingze seemed exceptionally calm at this moment.

A thought even briefly crossed his mind.

He hadn’t expected Jiang Qing to be right.

Given his unlucky disposition, he really wouldn’t survive past his youth.

However, in that instant, a golden light suddenly radiated from the red string on his wrist.

It enveloped the entire car like a shield.

Bang!

The anticipated scene of the small car flipping over did not occur,

Instead, the Jiang Family’s car, like a lightly flicked gummy, slid on the ground and came to a steady stop.

The tires sparked against the ground, leaving black marks.

The truck driver was so shocked that he nearly bit his tongue. He tried to hit them again but found that his vehicle wouldn’t start.

As passersby turned to look their way, the driver had no choice but to jump out of the cab angrily.

He even sprained his ankle and limped away into a nearby alley.

Inside the car, the couple gradually came back to their senses.

Fu Ting turned around in terror.

"Aze!"

But she saw that Jiang Jingze, due to the inertia, was leaning back in his seat with his wrist raised in front of him, his eyes full of astonishment.

"Thank goodness, Aze is alright!"

Fu Ting and her husband cried tears of joy.

Jiang Chengren, a man of solid build, wiped away tears, muttering, "Thank the master for protecting our Aze through this disaster."

Jiang Jingze wanted to argue that it had nothing to do with the old charlatan, it was clearly...

He could not have been mistaken about the light that had burst forth from the red string just now.

The incident years ago could have been dismissed as a coincidence, but what about this time?

In that moment, many thoughts raced through the young Jiang Jingze’s mind.

In the end, only one remained.

This matter must not be known to others, for it would bring her enormous trouble.

Thinking this, Jiang Jingze echoed his father’s words.

"Yes, thank you, master..."
