After the divorce, I became a rich girl

Under the violent impact, Li Jiawei's head hit the steering wheel violently, and blood immediately gushed out of her forehead, and bright red liquid also flowed from her nose. She lay on the steering wheel, and after a long struggle, she finally came back to her senses from the fear, and slowly regained some consciousness. There was a pungent smell of gasoline in the air. With trembling hands, she took out a tissue from her bag, gently wiped the blood from her nose, and then pressed the wound on her forehead tightly, then tried to open the car door, rolled down, and crawled out to a relatively safe distance.

The driver who had collided with the car ran over to see Li Jiawei in such a miserable state and quickly called 120. Soon, an ambulance came roaring and took Li Jiawei to the hospital on a stretcher. The driver told Li Jiawei his contact information and that he would stay to deal with the accident with the traffic police and send the two cars to the repair shop for repair.

After arriving at the hospital and undergoing a series of examinations, the doctor fortunately told her that she only suffered some skin injuries and a slight concussion. The nurse carefully cleaned the wound on her forehead and told her, "Remember to change the medicine every three days and keep the wound away from water to prevent infection. Where are your family members? Please notify them to come and pay the bill and pick up the medicine."

Li Jiawei looked around the busy emergency room, watching the people coming and going, but she felt unusually lonely. She opened her mouth and finally whispered, "Give me the bill. He may have gone out and is not here for the time being." She tried to cover up her fragility and helplessness with lies, not wanting to make herself seem too lonely.

"Okay, you have to pay special attention to the wound to avoid inflammation, otherwise it will leave a scar." The nurse gave instructions and left the ward.

Li Jiawei leaned alone on the hospital bed, her eyes fixed on the payment slip in her hand. After a short rest, she slowly stood up, went through the payment procedures and collected the necessary medicines.

She originally planned to go home and rest, but when she caught a glimpse of the documents piled in her tote bag, and Section Chief Fang happened to send her photos of today's activities, Li Jiawei sneered at the bright smiles on everyone's faces in the photos.

Then she sighed sadly and decided to take a taxi back to the office. Sitting at her desk, she turned on her computer. Perhaps it was self-torture, perhaps it was a bit of anger, or perhaps it was because she was in a low mood, Li Jiawei insisted on sorting out all the data regardless of her physical injuries and fatigue. Then, she took out her mobile phone and began to process the photos of today's activities sent to her by Section Chief Fang, and started to write a briefing.

At this time, the sound of high heels hitting the ground came from the corridor, accompanied by the flashing of the sensor light. Li Jiawei was not worried about safety issues. She knew that there were security guards stationed at the entrance of the unit building, and safety was guaranteed. Just as she was about to get up to see who came to the unit so late, a woman in a black suit walked into the office.

Seeing the visitor, Li Jiawei stood up and greeted respectfully, "Hello, Director Qiao."

When Director Qiao saw that it was Li Jiawei, he was a little surprised and said, "I saw that the lights in the General Affairs Department were on, and I thought someone forgot to turn off the lights when they got off work, but I didn't expect you to be here. Xiao Li, why haven't you left work yet?"

Li Jiawei explained, "I went to the town below today to verify the budget data for the next quarter. The municipal bureau needs it urgently tomorrow, so I worked overtime to sort it out."

After hearing what Li Jiawei said, Director Qiao was stunned for a moment before he said, "Did you go to the town this afternoon? I said I was going to treat the old comrades to dinner tonight, so why didn't you go? The old director even asked about you."

Li Jiawei smiled and responded, "Thank you, Director, for your concern."

Director Qiao glanced at the briefing on Li Jiawei's computer and asked, "Have you finished writing the briefing?"

Li Jiawei replied, "Yes, Section Chief Fang arranged for it to be written, and it can be sent out before the Dragon Boat Festival."

Director Qiao nodded and said, "It's fine." Then he moved his eyes to the bandage on Li Jiawei's forehead and asked with concern, "What's wrong with your forehead?"

Li Jiawei touched the bandage on her forehead and said casually, "When I was coming back from the town, the brakes of the car I was driving failed, and the car crashed into the green belt, and my head accidentally hit the steering wheel."

Director Qiao asked nervously, "Is it serious? Which car were you driving?" All the cars today have been sent out to pick up old colleagues. Are there any idle cars in the unit?

"It's fine, just skin injuries and a slight concussion." Li Jiawei replied and told Director Qiao the license plate number. Director Qiao frowned after hearing this. "Isn't that car scrapped? It's been driven for more than 20 years. I clearly asked Lao Liu to deal with it. The car hasn't been inspected this year. How can I let you drive that car? Lao Liu is too unreliable. Since you are injured, don't work today. This is also a work-related injury. I will give you a week off and take good care of yourself at home."

When Li Jiawei heard that Director Qiao gave her a week off, she felt grateful and felt that her decision to come back to work overtime tonight was the right one, so she hurriedly said, "Thank you, Director."

Director Qiao waved his hand and said, "Why thank me? You are here for work. It's so late and there are no buses. Can I drive you home?"

Li Jiawei quickly declined, "Director, no thanks, I can just take a taxi back."

Director Qiao insisted, "It's not safe for you, a female comrade, to take a taxi so late at night. Pack up and I'll take you home."

Seeing Director Qiao’s insistence, Li Jiawei stopped refusing and said, “Thank you, Director.”

"Then you pack your things. I'll go back to the office to get something. When you're done, come downstairs and wait for me." After giving the instructions, Director Qiao left the office.

Li Jiawei packed up her things, took her bag, and slowly walked downstairs. She knew that Director Qiao was quite caring towards her, and tonight's extra week off made her feel Director Qiao's care for her, and her heart was filled with gratitude.

Director Qiao parked the car in front of the house and glanced into the yard. It was pitch black all around. Not only was there no light in the house, but there was no street light on the path. She asked with concern, "You live here?"

Li Jiawei nodded. "Well, the rent here is cheap."

Director Qiao felt somewhat guilty, thinking that he did not care enough about his subordinates. "It is indeed unsafe for a single woman like you to live here. Look, there is not even a street light on this road. I remember that there are still a few small public rental houses in the district. You can write an application and I will submit it to the Housing Office. Although you are not a regular employee, you have worked in the Finance Bureau for eight years. I will see if we can approve one for you. The rent is not expensive. The rent plus property fees may be only more than 700 yuan a month."

When Li Jiawei heard Director Qiao's suggestion, she felt a warm current in her heart. Today seemed to have a lot of surprises. She even began to wonder if good luck would come after every bad luck. She said gratefully, "Thank you, Director. I will write the application after I get to work."

Director Qiao smiled and nodded, "Well, send it directly to my office after you finish writing it, and go back and have a good rest!"

"Okay, thank you, Director. Please be safe on the road." Li Jiawei got out of the car and watched Director Qiao's car go away. She was filled with gratitude and felt that there was true love in the unit, which made her full of confidence and expectations for the future.
