Hearing the determination in Xie Shiyi’s words, Yun Bixue gained some strength and wiped her tears away.
Xie Limo wouldn’t want her to cry, so she tried her best to keep her emotions in check. Back then, he said that he would always make her happy and never make her cry. She made a promise to him, so she had to fulfill her words now.
The pain and fear of losing him were intense. When he was beside her, she didn’t think much of it, but after watching the news, she began to make wild guesses in her heart. Nonetheless, she always hoped for the best as she tried hard to lift her spirits.
When the two of them went outside, the winds were howling. Lightning was flashing as it lit up the dark skies from time to time.
Yun Bixue didn’t care about anything else. Limo had come to Zi Bei City for her even when it was pouring heavily, so why would she be scared of this weather?However, when she started to drive, Yun Bixue’s hands were trembling, and she couldn’t focus at all. In the end, Xie Shiyi drove while Yun Bixue sat in the front passenger seat.
After a while, Yun Bixue said calmly, “Shiyi, drive as fast as you can. I trust your driving skills, so don’t worry about me” At that moment, Yun Bixue thought that her life would be meaningless if she lost Xie Limo. If she wasn’t even afraid of dying, why would she be frightened that the car was going too fast? She naturally feared nothing now.
Xie Shiyi’s respect for Young Madam grew even deeper. She focused on the road ahead and began to accelerate to full speed, her hands tightly gripping the steering wheel.
In an instant, the car felt as though it was flying, and its speed made Yun Bixue feel like she was on a roller coaster. She grabbed the handle on the door to prevent her body from bouncing off the seat.
…
Wang Qianjin, who was enjoying his stay in Zi Bei City, was listening to the reports from his subordinates.
As he sipped on a glass of red wine, a mysterious glint flashed across his bewitching eyes. The corners of his lips turned up as he said, “That’s interesting. Do you know what happened?”“I am not sure.”
“Okay. Since I’m free tonight, I’ll go and take a look too.” While saying this, Wang Qianjin poured his wine into the pool in front of him. His eyes seemed to glow as he watched the red liquid gradually tainting the pool water.
He then changed into a set of casual clothes, and this made him even look more attractive. After taking a look at his perfect appearance, he touched the wound on his face and murmured, “My life is becoming more and more interesting.”
Several minutes later, he was driving towards the same direction where Yun Bixue’s car was heading.
…
Yun Bixue’s eyes were wide open as she looked into the distance. Even though thunder rumbled continuously on their way, her concentration grew even deeper amidst the flashes of lightning.
As the car traveled at breakneck speed, her stomach churned, making her feel like throwing up. Despite this, she endured it because she couldn’t let Xie Shiyi become distracted, let alone cause any unnecessary delay.
They passed several checkpoints on the road with speed cameras snapping away. Their speeding car, accompanied by the repeated beating of red lights, caused them to be apprehended by the traffic police. Xie Shiyi either drifted or sped past all of these obstacles.
They could even hear a traffic officer shouting angrily from behind, “Do they not want their lives anymore? I’ve never seen anyone drive so fast! They even beat the red lights! I’ll punish the two of you to death tomorrow! Let’s see how you’ll renew your driving license this year. I’ve deducted all your points away!”
Yun Bixue didn’t care about these at all. All that mattered was reaching her destination as soon as possible.
Once they arrived at the address that was mentioned on the news, Yun Bixue found the tracks that had been left at the scene. She staggered as she almost lost the strength in her legs, and she had to hold on to Xie Shiyi to be able to stand firmly.
Beside her, Xie Shiyi stood rooted to the ground as she realized what had happened. The blood drained from her face as well. Her head felt as though it had been struck by lightning, and she began to feel dazed. Xie Limo was the men of sacrifice’s pillar of support. The purpose of their very existence was to serve their Master, and if something were to happen to him, they wouldn’t have the will to live anymore.
