As the long-lost son of the Lu family in Jiangzhou, Lu Yi originally thought this was heaven's favor upon him, but the truth was far from it.
Seventeen years of destitution did not earn h...
Upon hearing the word "death," Lu Yi unbuckled his seatbelt and quickly stood up!
At the same time, Ruan Jiaojiao's fist was already sweeping towards her ear.
A few words stirred up a rift between the two, leading to a fight. The driver, looking smug, stepped on the gas, ready to watch a good show orchestrated by him.
Those who were with him had no idea what was happening inside the car.
Seeing him speed up and turn into a secluded direction, they assumed he had finished the task by himself.
They all hated it so much they were itching to bite it.
"That bastard's trying to take credit!"
"I told you long ago, he's no good, but you wouldn't believe me!"
"You still have the nerve to complain? Your luck at the card table is the worst, otherwise this chance to make a name for yourself would be mine!"
"So, should we follow them, or retreat?"
"Why should we withdraw? He wants to show off, so let him show off to his heart's content. I've heard that Lu Yi is not just a pretty face!"
"That girl looks so skinny, it should be fun to bully her... Let that kid deal with Lu Yi, and us... hahaha!"
The moment they ended the call, they made the same choice.
The vehicles turned onto the side road and all stopped.
Some got out of the car to urinate, some took off their shoes and sat in the car to smoke, and some simply closed their eyes and fell asleep.
The driver glanced at the rearview mirror and realized that the vehicle hadn't followed.
He panicked for a moment, but quickly put on a mocking smile. "Those cowards, their driving skills are terrible, and they want to be the hero? Go to hell!"
With just a few words, he managed to make Lu Yi and Ruan Jiaojiao kill each other. That's something he can brag about for a lifetime!
However, just as he was secretly gloating, Lu Yi and Ruan Jiaojiao exchanged glances, and their attack directions merged into one!
Lu Yi clenched his fist with four fingers, his thumb curled inward, and emerged from between his middle and ring fingers, carrying a sharp killing intent as he aimed straight for Lu Yi's temple.
Ruan Jiaojiao bent her left leg, pushed off with her right leg, shifted her body weight to the back of the driver's seat, and swiftly reached under the driver's crotch with her arm!
"Holy crap—"
The sudden pain caused the driver to curl up and see stars.
With a loud bang, his body slammed into the car door.
But his hands never left the steering wheel, and the car, driven unconsciously by him, veered like a drunkard toward the riverbank, which was covered with weeds and rocks.
Lu Yi touched the central control and immediately unlocked the doors and windows, shouting at Ruan Jiaojiao, "I'll open the door, you throw him out!"
As soon as he finished speaking, the driver shook his head vigorously to come to his senses.
He gripped the steering wheel with one hand, reached his right hand to his waist, pulled out a dagger, and slashed upwards with force.
Lu Yi was unable to dodge in time, and his arm was cut open.
He frowned, ignoring his wound, and pushed Ruan Jiaojiao, who was about to approach the driver's seat, back into the back seat!
"careful!"
"Lu Yi, you're bleeding!"
Ruan Jiaojiao caught a glimpse of the blood-stained sleeve of her white shirt and instinctively reached for her backpack.
Besides snacks and drinks, the backpack also contained first-aid medicine and bandages... Looking around, I realized the bag was at the driver's feet.
"You dared to scheme against me! I underestimated you..."
After the driver finished speaking with a sinister look, he glanced up and saw a river not far away. A wicked plan formed in his mind.
"Since you're so eager to die, then there's no need to waste any more time!"
He sat up straight and floored the accelerator again.
The car reluctantly lurched left and right, wobbling and twisting its way forward across the rocky beach.
The driver appeared calm, but he was already panicking inside.
According to the original plan, after picking up the two, he would first take them out of Jiangzhou without making a sound.
Then take the two to the Jinhe area and quickly clean up the mess.
The task given by the higher-ups did not include any interrogation. The driver was persuaded by Lu Yi, thinking that he could get some information out of Lu Yi and sell it for a high price.
Unexpectedly, his cleverness backfired!
They had completely fallen into the trap set by this seemingly young college student.
Now that things have come to this, he has come to realize the situation.
Both sides were isolated and helpless, and could only try to make use of the environment to gain a glimmer of hope.
He had just been taught a harsh lesson by Ruan Jiaojiao, so he couldn't gain the upper hand in close combat.
The only option at that moment was to go into the water, and as the car sank, to open the door and escape first, then lock the two people inside and drown them!
Having made up his mind, as the car drew closer and closer to the edge of the river, his eyes became incredibly determined!
"I'll just bleed you a little now, but in a minute... I'll send you all to meet the King of Hell together!"
He smirked coldly, brandishing his knife in his right hand to guard against Lu Yi's sudden attack, while glancing sideways behind him to watch out for Ruan Jiaojiao...
However, in that one glance, his two eyeballs seemed to be hooked by invisible hooks, bulging out of their sockets!
"you……"
The remaining words stuck in his throat, turning into a series of incomprehensible gurgling sounds.
Ruan Jiaojiao gripped the two ends of Lu Yi's belt tightly and pulled with all her might. The fine leather belt stretched under her immense strength, turning into a deadly chain.
The "assassin" stared at Lu Yi in disbelief, his life slowly fading away in the enclosed carriage...
Even so, he twisted his taut legs and blocked the accelerator.
Lu Yi unlocked the car window, grabbed Ruan Jiaojiao's arm, and prepared to jump out of the car, but he was still a step too late.
Guh!
The car sped into the water and plunged into the river.
The carriage was quickly flooded, and the water level rose visibly from the floor mats, seats, and backrests.
Lu Yi tried to push the car door open, but the immense water pressure wouldn't budge an inch.
"It's over, Lu Yi, we're going to die!"
Ruan Jiaojiao took out the window breaker and banged on it loudly, but the glass didn't give her any face.
"No, calm down. I'll open the sunroof. Let's get out of the car first..."
Lu Yi was flustered, but his face remained calm.
No matter how critical the situation, he couldn't show it, otherwise Ruan Jiaojiao would lose confidence and wouldn't listen to anything.
He was reborn and has surpassed his previous self.
The only regret is that I haven't gotten justice for my uncle, haven't been able to give the girl I like a home, haven't been able to thank the Fan family, and haven't been able to properly say goodbye to my brother...
Forget it, let's try in the next life!
As long as he can get Ruan Jiaojiao out, he won't have suffered too much in his life!
After struggling for ages, the car doors and sunroof were tightly shut, but all the buttons were malfunctioning!
They craned their necks close to the roof of the car, but the water still submerged their noses. The claustrophobic, suffocating feeling made Ruan Jiaojiao so scared that she wanted to cry.
"Lu Yi, what should we do?"
She pouted, struggling to breathe, gripping Lu Yi's fingers so tightly they almost dug into the flesh of his wound.
Lu Yi took a deep breath, "Jiaojiao, listen carefully, in a moment you..."
"No, I won't leave on my own. Don't leave me to live alone. If we're going to die, let's die here together. I deserve to die anyway!"
Before Lu Yi could finish speaking, Ruan Jiaojiao suddenly slid forward, pressing her entire body against Lu Yi's chest...
