Chapter 58

The exhibition was soon coming to an end. Over these few days, Ye Yuan, due to financial constraints, did not purchase the items he wanted.

However, he had obtained the contact information of these people. Once he had more money, he could contact them to make the purchases.

After the exhibition, Ye Yuan received a call from Lao San, preparing to take a detour to Shangjing.

Li Hui had to take the train back to Lanyu alone.

Wang Husheng, however, did not leave. Instead, he applied to stay and work as Ye Yuan's driver.

In Wang Husheng's own words, there was no vehicle he couldn't drive, be it a ship, tank, airplane, or submarine. His driving skills were noted in the special skills section of his file.

Ye Yuan's driving skills were just average. Since he had such a professional driver, why not use him? After all, Wang Husheng had nothing to do back home, and having someone like him around was not a bad thing.

Through these few days of observation, Ye Yuan found that although Wang Husheng was an orphan, he had a very cheerful personality and was a good person.

Therefore, Ye Yuan decided to cultivate him well, so he could help in the future.

Wang Husheng told Ye Yuan that the veterans introduced by Xu Hang were all from the same unit, and they were all Xu Hang's subordinates. They often trained and carried out missions together, so they were very familiar with each other.

When Ye Yuan asked Wang Husheng about their specific military roles, Wang Husheng just laughed and did not give a direct answer.

Ye Yuan thought that they were probably not ordinary soldiers.

...

A Ford F-150 drove steadily and quickly on the highway to Shangjing.

Only after sitting in the car did Ye Yuan understand why Wang Husheng said his specialty was driving.

Many people can drive, but few can drive in a way that makes the passengers feel as if they are not in a car.

Under Wang Husheng's control, the car performed to its maximum potential. During high-speed driving, there was no sense of being pushed back, and no sudden braking due to external factors.

One could say that Wang Husheng's driving reached an artistic level. The car was almost an extension of his body. He always overtook other cars at the most reasonable time and angle.

The two chatted while driving, making the journey less boring. Wang Husheng told Ye Yuan an interesting story about a mission he had abroad.

The story went that Wang Husheng and his team were on a mission in a certain country, and during the mission, they coincidentally encountered the country's presidential election.

This was not unusual, but one of the candidates was an actor.

The actor decided to run for president because he had starred in a comedy that became a nationwide sensation.

The content of the comedy was about an ordinary middle school teacher who, while chatting with colleagues, harshly criticized the country's current electoral system and other administrative systems.

Unbeknownst to him, a student secretly recorded this conversation and posted it online, making the middle school teacher famous.

Encouraged by the internet and his peers, the middle school teacher really ran for president and was successfully elected. After becoming president, he still remembered that he was an ordinary person and a public servant, and he reformed the political arena to create a clean and transparent political environment.

While the plot of the show was nothing special, the most dramatic part was that a few years later, the actor really ran for president.

After multiple rounds of voting, the actor, who had once played the president in a TV show, actually became the real president of the country.

After telling this story, Wang Husheng sighed, "They say life is like a play, life is like a play."

Ye Yuan did not have as many feelings as Wang Husheng, but he had something in common with the actor. The actor was recognized by the public because of a show, which changed his fate.

And himself? He also changed his fate after obtaining the system space. Without the system space, he would still be a cleaner at the bottom of the sea, earning 6,000 yuan a month.

At this moment, Ye Yuan suddenly noticed that Wang Husheng's facial expression became serious, and he kept looking at the rearview mirror. Ye Yuan also looked but did not see anything unusual.

Wang Husheng said sternly, "Boss, it seems we are being followed. They have been following us all the way."

Ye Yuan did not take it seriously and said jokingly, "Husheng, is this your military occupational disease? I am just a civilian now. Who would follow us? You must be having an occupational disease attack..."

Before Ye Yuan could finish, there was a huge collision from the back of the Ford F-150.

At that moment, Wang Husheng made a sudden 180-degree drift. Ye Yuan clearly felt that a heavy truck passed by his side during the drift.

Although the Ford F-150 avoided a direct collision, it was still grazed by the truck, spinning around on the highway before Wang Husheng stopped it steadily.

The truck did not slow down at all and sped away.

Logically, regardless of who was responsible for the accident, the truck should not have just driven away.

Recalling what Wang Husheng had said, Ye Yuan broke out in a cold sweat. Could it be that someone was really following him? But who could it be?

The most likely person he could think of was Zhang Gui, but Zhang Gui was still in prison. As for others, Ye Yuan had no clue.

Wang Husheng had already pulled the car over to the emergency lane, and the two got out to check the damage.

The rear of the pickup truck was clearly dented.

Ye Yuan could imagine how dangerous the situation was.

If he had been driving, the consequences would have been unimaginable. Fortunately, Wang Husheng was driving, which avoided the accident.

Initially, when Wang Husheng said a car was following them, he did not take it seriously. But when the car was hit, he realized that the truck had deliberately crashed into them.

Wang Husheng had already called the police, and the traffic police arrived at the scene soon. Ye Yuan did not say that the other party had intentionally crashed into them; he just treated it as a regular traffic accident.

After taking some statements, the traffic police saw that Ye Yuan's car could still drive normally and let the two leave. Since the other party had fled, keeping Ye Yuan and Wang Husheng there would not have helped.

After restarting the car, Wang Husheng drove more carefully this time. Fortunately, nothing else happened, and the two safely arrived in Shangjing.

After arriving in Shangjing, Ye Yuan had Wang Husheng go to repair the car, while he went to meet Lao San, Deng Kai.

Ye Yuan booked two rooms in a hotel and sent the addresses to Deng Kai and Wang Husheng.

While waiting for Deng Kai in the room, he received a call from the traffic police.

They informed him that the truck had been found on the side of the road, but there was no one in the truck and no clues left behind. By checking the truck's records, they discovered that the owner had reported the truck as stolen two days ago.

At this point, the trail had gone cold, and the traffic police could only ask Ye Yuan to wait for news.

After learning this, Ye Yuan was certain that the truck had targeted him, but he did not know who was behind it.

He believed that the mastermind would eventually come to light. For now, he needed to focus on improving his own abilities and wait for the other party to make a move.
