Cherish Your Life and Stay Away from Scammers

Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

The traffic police stepped forward to inspect the scene and noticed traces of a sharp stop as well as a pool of blood on the ground.

Yet, the wounded person was nowhere to be found.

"What happened? Where's the victim?" a traffic officer asked?

"I-I don't know..." The fat man was stunned. "I drove to the police station immediately after I knocked her down!"

"This is a serious car accident. You should have called the police. It is most unethical for the driver who caused the accident to leave the scene!" the traffic officer admonished.

"I-I..." The fat man stuttered and could not explain that he went to the police station because his phone had fallen into the pool of blood.

"Fine, there's nothing else for you here now. Go back with them to the station to record your statement."

"Okay, okay." The fat man nodded before he quickly got back into the police car.

At that moment, a doctor came down from the ambulance.

She walked over in big strides, and the moment she saw the bloodstains on the ground, she could not help but frown.

For someone to be bleeding out like that, even if the person managed to get home, he or she would not survive.

It was just sad!

However, that thought only lasted for three seconds.

"Something's wrong!" the doctor suddenly shouted.

A few of the traffic officers turned around to look at her. "What's wrong?"

The doctor immediately squatted down, and before the traffic police could stop her, she had touched the blood on the ground.

She rubbed her thumb and index finger together and took a whiff before her frown became even more pronounced.

"This isn't blood," she said. "This is a mixture of food coloring, honey, and water that looks like blood."

Hearing her explanation, the traffic police immediately recalled many previous cases in the past and came to a realization.

"A car accident and fake blood?"

"Scammers these days are really brazen!"

Everyone on the scene was disgruntled by the scammer.

Honestly, was the scam even considered elaborate?

Shen Chen was both the actor as well as director in her own play, and she had just taken advantage of a given opportunity.

The next day, a headlined social news story was broadcasted across various locations.

"A serious car accident transpired on XX street yesterday. However, the injured party was nowhere to be found when the police arrived.

"After an investigation, the police discovered that the car owner had encountered a professional scammer.

"Such scammers have been rampant lately, using various methods to stage a fake accident so that they can fraudulently cheat someone of their belongings.

"Please spread the message and be vigilant.

"The thrill of speeding is momentary, but the regret of a car crash is life-long.

"Cherish your life and stay away from scammers."

The moment Shen Zhongming saw the news, he laughed and looked at Shen Chen in a corner with a smile.

"Girl, that's your doing, right?!"

Shen Chen, who was wiping the window, responded angrily, "Do you think it's worth being proud of such a thing?"

Shen Zhongming looked away, and as he played around with some dice, he said, "Girl, let me tell you, you may be a scammer, but in your father's heart, you are the most perfect scammer in the world."

Shen Chen turned to look at him with a half-smile. "Enough, you're being annoying!"

Shen Zhongming threw the dice and got two sixes. He stood up and laughed. "I'll go for a round of gambling, then, so that I don't annoy my girl."

While he spoke, he took his specialty dice out of the house.

*Bam!!*

Just as the door closed, the bottle in Shen Chen's hand flew over.

If Shen Zhongming had closed the door a second later, he would have ended up soaking wet.

She looked at the news and gently raised one of her brows.

'Cherish your life, and stay away from scammers…'

That was quite the classic line!
