I am a Flower Vase in an Infinite World / I Am a Useless flower in an infinite

Chapter 16

The moment he got on, however, with the cold air from the air conditioning blowing on his face, Tang Ning began to regret it.

Each person looked for a seat upon entering the bus. Tang Ning, looking at the familiar seat layout and style, seemed to see flashes of the ghost infant in various rows of seats.

"Little Tang, why are you standing there like a fool?" the driver shouted back at Tang Ning.

Tang Ning looked at the uncle-like driver, who seemed to recognize the original "Tang Ning." This scene was much better than what Tang Ning originally anticipated. After all, Tang Ning wasn't good at striking up conversations with strangers.

He inserted the coin and sat in the seat next to the driver. After contemplating for a moment, he said, "I was thinking about something just now, so I stood there for a while."

"Don't keep thinking about those things all the time," the driver's expression turned somewhat serious, and he lowered his loud voice, "From now on, don't make those kinds of videos again. If I hadn't advised you, you would have been on that bus." The driver's voice dropped to a whisper towards the end.

Although the uncle-like driver didn't explicitly mention what "that bus" was, Tang Ning realized immediately that he was referring to the bus that had the accident!

This driver must know something!

It's true what they say about unexpected gains coming effortlessly!

Tang Ning used his acting skills and intelligence to carefully ask, "Ah, I didn't know such a thing would happen at that time."

"What didn't you know? You know very well in your heart. I explained the serious consequences to you clearly. You still had to try it out, saying that filming a video had to have that kind of effect." The uncle-like driver couldn't help but turn his head and glare at Tang Ning.

The uncle's tone was harsh, but there wasn't much true anger in his expression. Tang Ning quickly put on a pleasing smile, drooping his eyes slightly. Smiling, he gave off a pitiful vibe, like a stray cat on the roadside. Even the most heartless person couldn't help but feel some sympathy.

Sure enough, the uncle's tone softened. While keeping an eye on the road, he said, "You, this brat."

Next, Tang Ning tried to gather more information through indirect means, but the uncle skillfully avoided the topic, saying not to mention such things on the bus.

After driving for more than half an hour and reaching the terminal station, most of the passengers had already disembarked. The driver took Tang Ning off the bus, squatted by a tree, and lit a cigarette. He was a middle-aged man with a few strands of white hair, looking to be in his fifties. Smoking, he asked, "Alright, spill it. What are you looking for me for this time?"

"It's about that bus incident. I came to gather some video material." Tang Ning said, following his established character.

The uncle driver got so angry that he threw away his cigarette. "How can you be so stubborn?! I thought you were in good spirits today, thinking you had turned over a new leaf! What exactly goes on in your mind? Do you want to film a video to risk your life?!"

Tang Ning was scolded terribly, feeling like he was drenched in cold water. He also wanted to know what the previous "Tang Ning" was thinking, how he could be so audacious. However, he was timid like a mouse.

"Forget about that bus; don't bother with it. If there's another last bus heading in that direction, don't stop it! Don't even think about getting off halfway. Once you get on that bus," the uncle driver spoke more softly now, lowering his voice, "you won't come back."
