On my way home after working the night shift, I was riding my e-bike and waiting at a traffic light. Suddenly, a white car lost control and crashed towards me. The speed was so fast that I couldn't dodge it in time.

When I woke up again, I found myself in the hospital.

My mind was clear, but my eyelids felt heavy.

I heard my mother's voice.

"My daughter was hit like this. I don't know how long it will take for her to wake up. It delays my work. Who will compensate for the money?"

Hearing this voice, I couldn't help but bitter smile in my heart. My mother is obsessed with money. Even at this moment, she is still thinking about money.

Soon, I heard someone coming in from outside and approached my mother. They whispered something.

My mother's tone instantly changed. She exclaimed with excitement in a lowered voice, "What? The other party is willing to offer a hundred thousand dollars?"

"That's great, that's wonderful! A hundred thousand dollars, her younger brother needs to buy a house to pay the down payment, and it's just a hundred thousand dollars short. With money now, her brother's marriage can be settled."

The other person should be someone sent by the culprit. After hearing my mother's words, their tone also became gentle. "That's right, let's settle this matter. No need to report it, we can settle it privately."

I finally struggled to open my eyes and the first thing I saw was my mother's excited figure leaving.

She didn't even think about staying to take care of me, instead she was eager to tell this good news to my younger brother.
