Rescue.

Hao Ren was inside his car in a few minutes and the vehicle was roaring through the traffic. The young man said, "Xiao Mei, track Han Lingshi for me." 

Xiao Mei was an advanced artificial intelligence it was not hard for her to understand who was Han Lingshi. She quickly replied, "Boss, she is present in the third lobby of the emergency room and a few people are engaged in a verbal argument with her." 

Hao Ren clenched the steering and said, "Can you find out where and what sort of accident was she in?" 

Xiao Mei replied, "Boss, I might have to look into the traffic police archives." 

Hao Ren thought for a bit and said, "Do it, just don't leave a trace and do not touch any other file." 

Xiao Mei replied in affirmation and asked for fifteen minutes of time. She might be an advanced AI but she was still working with the limited capacity in the mobile phone. The server was not yet set up, how could she do such things in an instant. 

...

Ten minutes later, Hao Ren parked his car in the parking lot, and noticed Han Lingshi's vehicle standing in a lot. He moved over and checked every corner of the car. There was an indentation on the front bumper but it was not anything serious. It could have been caused by a bump. 

Hao Ren's gaze turned cold. He looked at the car for a few seconds and then turned to walk inside the hospital. Emergency wards were very noisy in general but at the moment, the entire place was echoing with harsh scolding remarks. 

"You rich people think that the life of an hardworking human has no worth! Shame on you!" 

"You are so young and yet such a vicious nature!! How could you run over a man like this!!" 

All these remarks were directed to a beautiful lady who stood in a white formal dress. Her hands were crossed before her stomach as she bowed her head. Her long hair were shielding her face so the people did not notice that her eyes were red, she was on the verge of tears. 

Han Lingshi could not even call anyone, because these people have snatched her phone. She was a lady who did not lose her composure even when she was staking millions in business, but for the first time she had no idea what to do. 

Just when she was on the verge of breaking down, a warm feeling embraced her. She was surprised, and instinctively wanted to push the person away in fright when she heard a calm voice in her ears, "Lingshi, its me, don't worry I will handle this." 

Han Lingshi sensed her body loosen as she leaned on to Hao Ren's chest. The voices around her seemed to have vanished, but the relief did not last long. A lady said, "Look at this pair of dog man and woman. They dare to be so affectionate after causing my son to end up in the hospital." 

Han Lingshi, who regained her strength, wanted to say something when a loud voice overpowered the people. 

"Shut the fuck up!" 

Everyone was surprised and even the nursing staff did not imagine this sunny young man to retaliate in such a manner. Hao Ren looked at the lady who was speaking, and said, "Old lady, you can eat shit if you want to but do not spew it out at others. You are clamoring here that your son was ran over by her car. If you are so worried about him then why don't you go and look after him?!" 

The lady was flustered but somebody else said, "Why shouldn't she stay here? Her son was crashed by your woman's car. You have to pay compensation." 

Hao Ren looked at the person, it was a middle-aged uncle and asked, "Are you the father of the victim?"

The man was surprised but shook his head, and Hao Ren asked, "Were you present at the accident spot? Was any of you present at the place of accident?" 

The people realized that they were not, and another righteous person said, "Even if we were not present at the scene, you cannot dismiss us just because you have money. You have to pay compensation." 

Hao Ren nodded and said, "Fine, I will pay the compensation of five hundred thousand and medical expenses, but I will call police so that the family of the victim could not come back at us." 

The people agreed but the mother of the victim suddenly clamored, "No, why do you need to call the police. It is clear that it your mistake, the police will obviously support you reach people. Oh, my son was hurt by such people what do I do." 

Hao Ren watched the old lady acting, coldly. Han Lingshi was still standing in his arms and she said softly, "Ren, forget it, I will give them money. I am tired." 

Hao Ren bowed his head to look at her and said, "No, I will not let you be wronged by a bunch of scammers." 

He took out his phone and called the police. The middle-aged lady was shocked, she did not expect this young man to call the police disregarding her weeping and sobbing. The hospitals had a small police outposts to handle such a situation.

The cops arrived and the leading officer asked, "Who is mister Hao Ren?" 

Hao Ren said, "I am the one who called you officer, can you please bear witness of the situation?" 

The officer asked, "Please tell me what happened before you ask me to bear witness." 

Hao Ren nodded and explained everything without adding or excluding any extra detail. Han Lingshi was surprised, but the people had a weird expression on their face. Hao Ren said, "Sir, my friend bought that guy to the hospital for check up and now we wish to compensate them properly out of humanity and also to avoid major discredit. Can you please help us out?" 

The officer nodded and said, "Well, it is only fair that you compensate them. Where is the victim, let us meet the doctor looking after him and get the proper estimate of how much the compensation should be." 

Hao Ren nodded, but the mother of the victim did not respond. She was scared of the police officers, and the other people who were supporting her were also silent now. The officer asked, "Ma'am, can you bring us to your son?" 

The lady replied weakly, "He is resting now, can you look at him later?" 

The inspector frowned and Hao Ren said, "Old woman, I would not have minded paying millions if we were really in the wrong. Even in the face of law you are pretending, do you want me to bring up the evidence that it was your son who made the mistake when exiting the street?" 

Someone said, "What do you mean? Stop pressuring her, sister bring them to your son quickly. Let these officers help you deal with this rich kid." 

More and more people began to join the chant and the lady was covered up in sweat. The nurses and doctors wanted to uncover her but they were tied up by hospital rules. They could not draw fire onto the hospital or they would lose their jobs. 

Hao Ren waited for ten minutes before he said, "I do not know about you all, but I have had enough of this. Officer, our vehicle is equipped with a dashcam, and also the model my friend was driving has a 360 camera support, collisions are recorded on it automatically. If not for that, you can look into the traffic camera system on the 18th boulevard crossing. You will know what is going on here." 

This declaration made the lady realize that this young man was prepared and suddenly said, "We do not want any compensation, we do not need it." 

Everyone was surprised, but Hao Ren sneered and said, "Old lady, you do not want the compensation for the misery of your son? Why? What happened? Did you discover a conscience?" 

The police officer smelled something fishy and asked, "Tell us the truth, ma'am. What is going on here, or we might be forced to use the law." 

The lady could not handle such pressure and said, "It was a misunderstanding. My son works in a food delivery company and he was rushing for work, when he bumped in the car of this young lady. He is fine, it was just that... I.. I thought they have money so I should as them for a compensation." 

The people were stunned, the police officer put up a stern expression and said, "It is because of people like you that the bystanders are afraid of helping someone. Shame on you for exploiting your son's ailment like this." 

The lady shrank her neck and the officer looked at Hao Ren as he asked, "Do you want to press any charges against them?" 

Hao Ren was about to answer when Han Lingshi said, "No. We do not." 

The officer gave another scolding to the lady and the people and also called them ungrateful. Then Han Lingshi said, "Ren, they took my phone." 

Hao Ren furrowed his brows and shouted, "Who has her phone?! If I did not see it in my hand in five minutes, I swear I will drag you all to court and I will make you beg on the streets." 

It was not that just because Hao Ren was rich that he was scolding and showing off his money. When his sister was sick, he has seen the misery of his family. That was the reason he hated these people who took advantage of others. 

Soon, a hand extended from the crowd and they handed over Han Lingshi's phone to Hao Ren. He said, "The car your son bumped cost five million yuan, repairing the dent and repainting it will cost 200,000 yuan at the lowest. Despite knowing that it was not her fault, she bought him to the hospital and I am sure she must have already paid the bill too. Tch, shameless people, do you think the rich did not work hard to earn the money?" 

Then he gently guided Han Lingshi to leave the lobby with him. Han Lingshi has never seen such a situation and she was still shaken by the atmosphere. Although she was walking stable, but she was still holding on to Hao Ren's sleeve. The young man was also consoling her silently and patted her fair jade hands gently. 

They came to the parking, and Hao Ren asked gently, "Where do you want to go? I will give you a ride." 

Han Lingshi seemed to have relaxed, and she could not hold it back anymore and tears began to drip down on her cheeks. She threw herself in Hao Ren's embrace and wailed in his chest. Hao Ren felt as if his heart was being torn apart when he saw her this weak. In these past few days, Han Lingshi has been the goddess in his dreams. Everything she did, from the little twitch of her nose when she ate something spicy, and the cold side glance, everything about her was like a definition of elegance. 

He could sense her vulnerability, and once again realized that she was not the omnipotent goddess but a little girl who covered herself in the armor of ice. He placed his hand on her back as she cried and gently patted her. He did not say anything, until she calmed down a bit. 

He said, "It's over now. Everything is settled. Don't worry. Why don't you take a day off? I will cook something really nice for you being so brave in there." 

Han Lingshi shook her head while sobbing, Hao Ren sighed and said, "Lingshi, I cannot bear to see you cry like this. Should I go back inside and rip them a new one?" 

Lingshi shook her head, and Hao Ren fell silent. A few minutes later, she raised her head and the young man said, "I am hungry, do you want to eat something?" 

Han Lingshi did not say anything, but she followed Hao Ren's arrangement. He said, "Arrange for a driver to collect your car later, first we go home and I cook for you." 

Han Lingshi looked at him as they drove, and then looked at his shirt, his left chest pocket had a big wet mark, she did not know what to say. Hao Ren suddenly said, "The company is set up, do you want to go and see it in the evening?" 

The lady nodded in agreement. As they were driving, a mechanical voice sounded in Hao Ren's mind, *Ding: It has been detected that the task has been completed, issuing rewards...*
