Wrathful Wife.

Gao Yue suddenly froze when she heard a loud crashing sound. Han Lingshi was standing beside her and the loud noise reached her ears also. She snatched the phone and spoke, "Hao Ren, Hao Ren can you hear me? Ren, answer me god damn it!"

She did not waste much time and dashed out of the house quickly. The people did not know what got over her, she got in a car and drove it as fast as she could to find Hao Ren. She had not come very far from her mansion when she noticed a car toppled over on its roof. Her pupils constricted, and her heart almost froze from the sudden chill. 

She spotted an ambulance not far away from the car, and parked her vehicle on the side. She got out and rushed to check on the situation. She had recognized that it was her car. Suddenly a police constable appeared before her and stopped her from approaching the vehicle. 

Han Lingshi turned to glare at the person and said, "Move! My husband was driving the car." 

She did not realize this on her own, but Hao Ren had become a very important part of her life and at this moment, she acknowledged this fact. The officer looked at her with sympathy and said, "Ma'am, your husband has been rescued and he has been carried to the ambulance just a few moments ago. It is...." 

He wanted to tell her that it was not safe to approach the crashed car as it was leaking oil, but Han Lingshi had already dashed to check the ambulance. The officer sighed and mumbled, "Such intense love. That kid sure is lucky." 

Han Lingshi arrived next to the ambulance and slammed her palm on the door hard. The medical attendant inside the ambulance opened the door with a furious expression and asked, "What do you want?" 

His rage vanished when he saw Han Lingshi's visage. The lady hurriedly pulled open the other door and looked at the young man covered in blood. She called for him, "Ren!" 

The medical attendant understood that this lady was connected to the victim. He said, "Come in quick, we need to go to the hospital." 

Han Lingshi quickly sat in the ambulance, she did not have any care in her mind. At this moment, only Hao Ren existed in her vision. She turned to ask the medical attendant, "How is he?" 

The man was performing first aid to Hao Ren as he said, "His left hand is fractured, ribcage have suffered strong impact, and his right shoulder is inflicted too. There are some cuts also, the extent of the damage can only be confirmed at the hospital after the tests. For now he is steady and holding up." 

Han Lingshi nodded, and then she took a deep breath to calm herself. She asked, "Which hospital are we heading to?" 

The guy replied, "Holy Mother." 

Han Lingshi shook her head and said, "Move to Emerald Life Hospital." 

The guy hesitated but when he saw the lady before him looked good, he spoke up in his communicator and said, "Helen, drive to the Emerald Life." 

Han Lingshi took out her phone and dialed a number, shortly the call was connected, and she said, "President Louise, this is Han Lingshi. Yes, I would like to reserve a VIP room and also please inform your emergency response team to be ready, I am bringing in a patient. He has been through a car accident." 

Then Han Lingshi passed the phone to the medical attendant to tell the other party about Hao Ren's condition. The lady took a deep breath as she looked at the young man before her. His blood stained visage was like a knife through her heart and she could not help but clench her fist. 

After the call disconnected, it took them fifteen minutes to rush Hao Ren to the hospital. The young man was attended by the head of the emergency department and Han Lingshi thanked the ambulance staff before she followed the doctors. She held on side of the stretcher as the staff moved Hao Ren inside. The doctor on the side was talking and she kept on nodding. 

She only sat in the lobby when the doctor said, "Miss Han, please stay here, we will look after your friend and conduct through examination. Please do not worry." 

The lady looked at the doctor calmly and said, "I want the best treatment for him." 

The doctor nodded and quickly left. He was scared by the calm displayed by this young lady. He knew that Han Lingshi was among the rich and affluent. She had a lot of pull in the hospital as one of the biggest donors. 

Han Lingshi waited for a few minutes, before she picked up her phone and called someone. The call was connected shortly after and she said, "Cousin, I need you to deal with someone." 

She was not a fool to not figure out who could have hurt Hao Ren. She did not care about the proof and she did not care about the consequences, but since the enemy harmed the one she cared about she was going to return the favor. 

... 

Hao Ren was surrounded by darkness, he did not know what to say at this moment. He sighed and mumbled, "Am I dead? What the fuck is going on with my lousy fate? Both the times it was truck." 

*Ding: Host please stop thinking too much. You are alive, just fainted from the pain in the accident, also the reward for this task is a little special so it is helpful that you are unconscious.*

Hao Ren smiled and asked, "Are you going to give me some magic skills?" 

*Ding: No, but something realistic.*

Hao Ren was curious and asked, "What is it?" 

*Ding: You will gain perfect memory. Do not look down on this skill because of your limited intelligence. Memory is not meant to copy content from books, but if you observe more carefully, skills such as martial arts, gun fighting, weapon mastery, and even disguise can be learned properly.* 

Hao Ren did not believe it and asked, "What do you even mean by that? How come I have never found any other person using this?" 

*Ding: Because you have read too many shitty books where the ML is useless and needs a separate skill for everything. Get a grip of yourself, your body is growing but your thinking is so cheap.* 

Hao Ren fell silent, now that he thought about it, the system was indeed right, how come this thing was missed over by people so many times? He took a deep breath and said, "Alright, get me the reward." 

*Ding: You have completed the task and you have been rewarded with the perfect memory talent.* 

Hao Ren noticed that the system did not say skill but talent. He nodded and then suddenly, his head felt like it was going to explode from the pressure forming inside his head. 

In the real world, the doctors checking Hao Ren were suddenly surprised when they noticed a spike in his brain waves. They quickly reacted and were going to call the neurology expert when the spike in brain waves regressed back to normal. 

If someone was to look inside Hao Ren's brain, they would find that the entire neural circuit was active, it was like a nuclear bomb exploding inside his mind. The synapses were firing electrical signals at each other rather quickly. 

... 

Hao Ren recovered from the pain in his head and took a deep breath. He found that he was still surrounded by the darkness and he asked, "Hello, system, why am I still stuck in this dark place? I know that I had an accident but why does it seem like I am very badly injured?" 

*Ding: Congratulations, host has awakened the skill of self awareness. You are indeed hurt but it is not life threatening and nor are you disfigured. The reason you are still here is because you have completed the hidden task.*

Hao Ren asked, "What hidden task? Is it about sacrificing my car so that I could drive Lingshi's car and make her feel close to me?" 

*Ding: Allow me to refresh your hazy memory, when you were leaving the mansion, system predicted that if your wife drives out in her car she might get into an accident. Thus you made up a silly excuse and left your car behind and took hers. While your deed is commendable, your excuse was lousy.

Who told you that the solution to save your wife was to get yourself into an accident? Did you encounter a big brain injury when you were a child? Anyway, since you met the accident and swapped your fate with your wife, you are rewarded with an Industrial Robotic factory." 

Hao Ren was stunned and asked, "Is my life just worth a factory?" 

*Ding: Host ,your life is unimportant, the system is bound by laws.*

Hao Ren had an urge to clench his chest as his heart was aching hard because of the insult thrown at him. 

... 

Han Lingshi was sitting beside Hao Ren's bed, it has been seven hours since the accident and the young man lay calmly on the spot, she could not take her gaze away from his face. His left arm was in a brace and his forehead was covered in gauze. 

She was tired but her eyes were flickering with resolve. Suddenly, she was surprised as she sensed a rustle against her palm. Her eyes lit up as she found that Hao Ren was moving. After a few minutes, the young man opened his eyes with great effort. 

Hao Ren was quickly overcame by the throbbing pain all over his body and he grimaced. He heard Han Lingshi's voice, "Ren, are you okay? Wait let me call the doctor." 

He gradually got used to the sensation and looked at the lady whose being was brimming with concern. He looked at her and said, "I am fine, Lingshi. How long have you been sitting here?" 

Han Lingshi looked at him, and finally the barrier that was holding back her emotions broke. Tears fell from her eyes, and Hao Ren tried to rise and console her but the pain rendered him useless at the moment. He said weakly, "Am I not okay now? It pains me to see you like this. Please do not cry."

Han Lingshi regained her composure after she wiped her tears away. She wanted to say something when quickly a team of doctors and nurses came inside. The doctor checked Hao Ren, and said, "The pain will go away in a day or two, it is because of the accident. However, you will need a month to recover from the fracture and your ribs will also need some proper care." 

Hao Ren thanked him and said, "Doctor, if possible, I would like to follow a traditional medicinal treatment." 

The doctor was confused and Hao Ren said, "I am not insulting you, Sir. But I am a junior practitioner of traditional medicine, I am confident in my skills and knowledge." 

The doctor looked at Han Lingshi who nodded and then he retreated with the nurses. Han Lingshi asked, "When did you become a practitioner of medicine?" 

The young man replied, "A few days ago, I made a deal with Magnificent Cosmetics. Needed some credentials to get a license to sell the product." 

Han Lingshi raised her brows and said, "I did not expect you to be a master." 

Hao Ren shook his head gently and Han Lingshi said, "I have a gift for you when you discharge." 

The young man chuckled and asked, "What, could you have slayed Han Yuntian?" 

Han Lingshi shook her head and said, "No, but someone very close to him will pay the price." 

Hao Ren furrowed and asked, "Who? Maria?" 

He did not expect Han Lingshi to act so decisively. The lady nodded and said, "She was the only one who knew I was at my family mansion. She told Yuntian, and that scum tried to attack me. If not for the car, you would have been fine. I am sorry, Ren." 

Hao Ren patted the back of her soft hand and said, "Why are you saying sorry? You did not know what would happen. I am fine, aren't I? 

Han Lingshi nodded slowly but then she said, "What would I have done if something were to happen to you?" 

Hao Ren smiled at her and said, "I never knew you cared that much for me, wife." 

At this moment, Hao Ren's phone rang, and the romance was paused.
