Chapter 93: Brake Failed
Translator: _Min_
When Zhou Ci thought about how he had not only failed to forge a good relationship with Gu Dai, but had also ended up with a mouthful of dirt, he wanted to get angry. But not daring to confront Gu Dai, he could only silently spit out the soil for a long while before finally cleaning all the dirt from his mouth.
Zhou Ci, irritated, threw his head back to gulp down some water and was about to leave. Unexpectedly, the next second he saw Song Ling’s face clouded with gloom, emerge from the cemetery. Coupled with Gu Dai’s indifferent demeanor earlier, he felt that something unpleasant must have occurred between them.
The irritation at the bottom of Zhou Ci’s heart was replaced by curiosity, and he approached to ask, “Brother, what’s wrong with you?”
Song Ling looked coldly at Zhou Ci without answering.
As Zhou Ci felt a chill at the bottom of his heart under Song Ling’s gaze, he finally heard Song Ling’s voice, “What are you doing here?”
Zhou Ci responded, “Today is my grandmother’s death anniversary. 1 came to see her.”
After his response, seeing that Song Ling ignored him again, Zhou Ci took the initiative to ask, “Did something unpleasant happen between you and Miss Gu in the cemetery?”
“Miss Gu?” Song Ling repeated coldly, then asked Zhou Ci, “Did you already know Gu Dai’s identity?”
At that moment, Zhou Ci felt Song Ling’s gaze was particularly harsh, as if wanting to kill him. Realizing this, he quickly shook his head and answered, “No, no, no, I just found out too. At first, I couldn’t believe it, but then 1 thought about it, and it suddenly made sense. After all, someone from a poor background couldn’t possibly understand paintings, or suddenly have such a powerful aura.”
Song Ling’s body emanated a continuous chill, gritting his teeth and saying, “Gu Dai has been a liar for these three years!”
Zhou Ci was stunned, subconsciously confused, “What?”
A liar? If there was a liar who had been selflessly deceiving him for three years, then he would be willing to be deceived!
Song Ling did not answer Zhou Ci’s confusion and drove away with a flourish.
Thus, Zhou Ci once again ended up with a mouthful of dirt.
On the suburban road.
Gu Dai’s face was cold as she stared ahead, her hands tightly gripping the steering wheel, pedal to the metal.
Gu Dai drove both fast and recklessly, the car’s nose nearly scraping against electric poles, but she managed to control the vehicle just in time, performing a perfect drift.
Meng Zhi looked at Gu Dai with his heart aching.
His sister had grown up, and now had secrets she didn’t want to share. All he could do as a brother was to ensure her safety, allowing her to vent her frustration.
Meng Zhi, an international race car driver, adapted quickly to this speed, but Lin Sheng, who was much older, was not so fortunate. His face was pale, and he couldn’t help but feel nauseous.
Lin Sheng spoke weakly, “Mis… Miss, 1 feel a bit sick.”
Although Gu Dai was angry, she apologized immediately after she heard Lin Sheng’s voice, “Uncle Lin, I’ll stop the car now. Let’s rest for a while.”
Gu Dai slowly pulled the car over. What none of them expected was that the speedometer needle suddenly shot up the next second, and the car sped off.
Meng Zhi, who was watching Gu Dai closely, realized something was wrong, his face turning pale, “The brakes are failing? Quickly pull the handbrake!”
Gu Dai, without a second thought, pulled the handbrake, only to find that it was also broken.
Gu Dai, gripping the steering wheel, calmly said, “The handbrake is also broken, and the car’s speed is even faster now.”
Meng Zhi forced himself to remain calm, “Daidai, has anyone else driven your car recently?”
Gu Dai shook her head, “No, this car was driven for the first time today, and it was checked yesterday. There shouldn’t be any problems.”
The two looked at each other and simultaneously exclaimed, “The car has just been tampered with!”
Although they had reached this conclusion, it was of no use at that moment, especially since a large mountain was blocking the way, and the car was speeding towards it at a terrifying pace.
“Bang!”
Capital Hospital.
After several days of rest, Gu Ming had regained consciousness, but the pain in his body was still tormenting him relentlessly. Even so, it could not stop his restless heart.
Liu Min sat by the bedside, equally anxious.
The two of them stared at the phone, waiting for an important call.
Finally, the phone rang..
