A false scene Chapter 1

My grandmother celebrated her 70th birthday, and my boyfriend drove us to a restaurant to celebrate.

Halfway through the call, he looked embarrassed and said, "The boss has something to do with me, we need to go back immediately!"

I was worried that he would offend the boss and lose his job, so I got off the car with my grandmother on the elevated bridge.

Unexpectedly, a rainstorm suddenly fell and the road and bridge collapsed. In my panic, I almost fell dead.

It was my grandmother who saved me, but she herself was hit in the back of the head by a collapsed steel frame, bleeding profusely.

I helplessly held my dying grandmother and desperately dialed Zhou Wangli's phone number.

The phone was connected, and there was a commotion and laughter from across the street.

Someone asked Zhou Wangli, "Zhou Shao, your little girlfriend Lin Qingran is bothering you again. Will she pick you up?"

Zhou Wangli's cold voice came clearly, "I've been tired of playing for a long time! If I keep in touch with her again, Xiaojin will be unhappy!"

Zhou Wangli coaxed his Bai Yueguang Pei Shijin and mercilessly hung up on my phone.

And I watched helplessly as my grandmother swallowed in front of me.

On the day of his grandmother's burial, Zhou Wangli appeared on the largest billboard in the city center as the Crown Prince of Beijing.

Originally, he was pretending to be poor and deceiving me from the beginning!

"Qingran, the boss has something to do with me, I need to go back immediately!"

Zhou Wangli answered a phone call midway and slowed down the pace, leaving him with a puzzled expression.

Zhou Wangli finally found this sales job, and this boss is not easy to deal with. If it delays the situation and causes him to lose his job, it will be bad.

I nodded and said, "It's okay, then my grandmother and I can get off the car first. We can take a taxi there."

Today is Grandma's 70th birthday.

Half a month in advance, I had planned to celebrate well for my grandmother and make her happy.

Zhou Wangli saw me on a tour guide and suggested that he knew a restaurant that was particularly delicious and wanted to drive us to the restaurant to celebrate.

Who knew that the boss had called at this moment, notifying Zhou Wangli to work overtime.

Zhou Wangli parked the car on the roadside, and my grandmother and I got off the car.

Through the car window, Zhou Wangli looked at me with a slightly apologetic gaze.

"I'm sorry, Qingran. I'll compensate you and grandma again next time."

I said it's okay and reminded him to pay attention to safety on the way.

Unexpectedly, the weather in June changed, and it was not easy to take a taxi on the viaduct. Shortly after Zhou Wangli left, there was a sudden rainstorm.

I took off my coat and put it on my grandmother when suddenly a loud noise came from beside me, causing the road and bridge to collapse.

Several cars didn't have time to slow down and fell off one after another.

I was worried that my grandmother would fall, so I hurriedly grabbed her. However, I accidentally stepped on her and almost fell to death.

It was my grandmother who saved me.

My grandmother blocked me with her own body, but she was hit in the back of the head by the collapsed steel frame, and blood flowed uncontrollably in an instant.

"Grandma! You hold on!"

As the rainstorm washed us, I held my grandmother in despair and tried my best to call Zhou Wangli.

After several repetitions, the phone was connected.

I heard my voice hoarse, "Zhou Wangli!"

Across the street came a commotion and laughter.

"Zhou Shao, it's your little girlfriend. I guess she's bothering you again. Will she pick you up?"

After the phone was connected, someone else's voice came clearly.

I was stunned and thought I had called the wrong number, but the next second, a clear and teasing voice from Zhou Wangli came from across.

"I've grown tired of playing with her long ago."

I didn't react, so Zhou Wangli said again, "Today is Xiaojin's birthday. If you contact her again, Xiaojin should not be happy. Just hang up."
