Power and Wealth
Chapter 1150 – Accident
The County Party Secretary is here too.
It became more complicated after the Party Secretary entered a car.
Pu An’s family’s second car moved forward, and Jian Xiangrong and Jiang Fangfang got in.
“Mayor Jiang.”
“Hi. Is Mayor Dong here?”
“Is Mayor Dong coming back today?”
“He landed this morning and had taken the long-distance bus.” Jiang Fangfang looked at his watch. “He should be here now.”
“Long-distance bus? The county should have available cars.”
“All the cars in the County Government had come here, and there are no cars to pick Mayor Dong. I just found out about it.”
Jian Xiangrong frowned and noticed the problem. Old Pu’s cars were mainly rented, and a few were from the County’s Commission for Discipline Inspection. They did not utilize other departments’ cars. That’s why their wedding convoy is smaller than Deputy Secretary Zhang. He has many cars but refuses to send one to pick up Mayor Dong from the airport. He is hogging the toilet and not taking the dump. However, Jian Xiangrong is from the neutral party and did not say anything. He does not want to join the Meng and Jiang faction rivalry. He felt Party Secretary Meng and his men had become more influential and arrogant.
Crack… crack… crack….
The final string of firecrackers was set off.
Pu An boarded the last car of the convoy, and they started moving out of the family quarters.
Zhang Wanshui’s face changed, and he got into his car.
“Secretary Zhang.”
“Tell them to move off now.”
“Yes.”
“Faster. We must get out of the family quarters first.”
Zhang Wanshui has more guests and cars. He also wants to leave the family quarters first.
Both sides refused to give way.
Secretary Meng saw what happened and shook his head. But he did not say anything.
The cars on both sides started moving faster.
Although the family quarters do not have many buildings and its rundown, it is wide enough for two rows of cars on the service road inside.
The service road might be broad, but the gate is not wide enough.
The two cars would graze against each other if they were to exit the gate side-by-side.
Pu An’s convoy reached the gate earlier and was about to leave the family quarters. Once the leading car gets past the gate, the convoy will exit the quarters first. Zhang Wanshui’s wedding convoy and Secretary Meng will have to wait.
Zhang Wanshui’s leading car driver suddenly speeds up. The Lexus is more powerful than Audi, and it overtakes it, causing a minor accident. The Audi driver braked suddenly and lost control of the car. It swerved to the side and hit the gate’s frame. The impact threw the bride and groom forward and caused some damage to the car.
Luckily, the impact did not activate the airbags.
The right side of the Audi was dented.
The Lexus left the family quarters like a winner and stopped outside.
No one expected this to happen.
“Xiao Tao!”
“Taotao!”
“Check if they are ok!”
Pu An and his wife ran out of their car to check on their daughter and son-in-law.
Pu An’s relatives and many staffs went over to help.
The door opened, and Pu Tao exited the car, holding her forehead. She grimaced as she hit her head.
The groom also got out, holding his leg.
Pu An is furious. He pointed at Zhang Wanshui, who had gotten out of his car and shouted. “How can you all drive like this?! Are you trying to pick a fight?”
Zhang Wanshui replied. “Why are you mad at me, Secretary Pu? I am not the one driving.”
Pu An and Zhang Wanshui started arguing. Pu An’s wife also started shouting at Zhang Wanshui’s wife.
The situation had gotten out of hand.
The rest of the guests exchanged looks and did not know what to do.
Suddenly, Meng Rui got out of the car. “It’s a happy occasion today. Let’s stop fighting. It’s only a misunderstanding.”
Misunderstanding?!
How can this be a misunderstanding?
Everyone saw it was Lexus’s driver.
The County Party Secretary had spoken, and no one dared to speak. Even Pu An and his wife kept quiet.
“Let’s go.” Secretary Meng got back into the car.
Zhang Wanshui laughed and said to Pu An. “I’m sorry, Secretary Pu. I will pay for the repairs.” He got into a car.
Pu An’s face turned green.
Pu Tao’s eyes were red. “Dad….”
The groom took a deep breath. “They are too much. How can they do this?”
Pu An replied. “Let’s go. We will talk about this after your wedding.” He forced himself to suppress his anger.
Jiang Fangfang watched as if nothing had happened. It seems she is unfazed by anything.
Pu An’s good friend, Jian Xiangrong, was furious too.
Pu An’s leading car’s driver was not hurt and tried to ignite the engine. He tried a few times but failed. He got out and tried to repair it.
Zhang Wanshui ignored them and waved his hand. His family’s wedding convoy started moving out.
Zhang Wanshui did not expect this accident. However, it had happened, and he thought nothing about it.
The Zhang family and guests felt proud after this accident. No one is more influential than Secretary Meng’s faction in Zhen Shui County.
Suddenly, something happened that shocked everyone.
A black SUV sped up from the opposite direction towards the Zhang Family’s Lexus and the convoy just after they left the family quarters.
Bam!
The SUV crashed head-on with the Lexus.
Everyone was stunned.
Dong Xuebing had been waiting outside the family quarters for Deputy Secretary Zhang’s wedding convoy.
Other than Dong Xuebing, who else would dare to crash his car into a County Party Secretary and several Party Committee Members’ convoy?!
Who else would do something like this?!
