Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
It was past six in the evening. The sky was getting dark and Li Beinian turned the headlights on.
Just as she was to turn onto the expressway, she noticed that roadworks were going on on the bridge opposite.
A huge hole in the ground was on the road she was approaching.
Li Beinian frowned.
She turned the steering wheel and went another way instead.
But just as Li Beinian was about to make a detour, a bright flash of amber light shone into her rearview mirror.
Li Beinian intuitively checked it out and realized that the car behind her was going in an unpredictable route.
Li Beinian tensed up.
Seeing how dangerous the vehicle appeared to be, she instantly turned her wheel to avoid it.
Beep, beep, beep.
She could hear the warning sound from the car’s safety system.
The road was narrow and Li Beinian barely evaded it.
But the car seemed to have a life of its own as it headed in Li Beinian’s direction.
It was evident that the car was after her!
Li Beinian’s expression darkened. She slammed her foot on the accelerator and turned the steering wheel quickly.
In that split second, her car scratched against the other.
Bang!
Her side mirror was broken and the mad car was still charging.
Li Beinian turned around and saw an SUV heading for the back of her car.
Bang!
The car lunched forward uncontrollably.
She turned back and looked ahead. The car was heading towards the gaping hole in the ground!
Under this was a network of other highways. Falling through the hole… meant certain death!
Her heart was under so much stress she felt as if it’d gone numb.
Li Beinian stepped hard on the brakes, but it was still rolling forward at the same rate.
The brake… wasn’t working!
The hole was getting closer and closer and at a horrifying rate!
Was she going to die today, just like this?
Li Beinian couldn’t take it. She clenched her teeth and turned the steering wheel hard.
Nearing the hole, Li Beinian curled up slightly, intuitively bracing herself for the impact.
The beeping sounds of warning rang again.
Then, a loud crashing sound could be heard.
Bang!
The car jerked violently and the sounds of shattering glass came from behind.
Li Beinian bounced upwards and knocked her head against the roof of the car.
Her head began pounding badly.
But it was that surge of pain that brought Li Beinian some clarity.
