Chapter 189 - 188: Saved (Fifth Update)
Gu Xiaoqing felt a sudden rush of adrenaline.
The thumping sound of a heartbeat seemed to fill the air.
"Big brother, she said she... she needs to... use the bathroom."
Gu Xiaoqing deliberately stammered to make it more convincing. The girl was surely shy.
Sure enough, Mr. Wu immediately flashed a lewd smile.
"Heh heh, little beauty, don’t be scared, your brother will take you to the bathroom soon. Just wait... ah..."
Gu Xiaoqing lunged forward, stretching out a hand. The bottle in her grip was almost warmed by her hand, and she pressed down hard on the trigger on top.
A pungent smell quickly filled the car, and Mr. Wu’s eyes were stung instantly.
Mr. Wu couldn’t see anything, his eyes burning painfully with unseen danger.
The knife in his hand had long since fallen who knows where.
One hand shielded his face while the other rubbed his eyes vigorously.
He cursed, "You little **, if I don’t tear you apart later, I’m not Wu Zhigang."
Gu Xiaoqing had already leaped over the seat, her nimble body squeezed into the driver’s seat, and she bent over to grab the knife she had been eyeing.
Having a weapon made things much easier.
She pressed the lock on the driver’s side door.
In a moment of busy chaos, Gu Xiaoqing glanced at the big brother in the distance.
The big brother obviously hadn’t noticed yet, his back turned, shaking his body.
Mr. Wu had already sensed someone extra opposite him.
Even though he couldn’t see.
Mr. Wu still lunged toward Gu Xiaoqing.
Gu Xiaoqing had to swing the knife in her hand, Mr. Wu was stabbed somewhere, Gu Xiaoqing didn’t know, she just heard him let out a miserable cry, then his whole body began to collapse.
Gu Xiaoqing spotted the big brother turning his head, seemingly realizing something was wrong.
About twenty steps away, not too far, this big brother could probably reach the car in under a minute, maybe even in seconds.
Gu Xiaoqing had to go all out.
Mr. Wu seemed to have run out of energy.
Without fear, Gu Xiaoqing leaned over, opened the door, and kicked Mr. Wu out with a few kicks.
Then she closed that door.
She shouted to Wei Ziyun in the back: "If you don’t want to die, get over here and help, lock the door."
Then she began to shakily start the car.
Her fingers were slipping, which Gu Xiaoqing later realized was blood.
The big brother had obviously noticed, charging forward like a tank, eyes blazing with fury, gripping an axe tightly.
Gu Xiaoqing believed if they were caught, she would undoubtedly be killed by him without hesitation.
Maybe even literally torn apart.
Gu Xiaoqing didn’t care about anything else, desperately stepping on the clutch, shifting gears, starting the car, all in one smooth motion, just hoping to escape.
Unfortunately, the car seemed not to listen to Gu Xiaoqing at all.
It trembled but refused to move.
Wei Ziyun had already climbed into the passenger seat, locked the door, and seeing the big brother with an axe coming at them, shrank under the seat in fear.
"Gu Xiaoqing, hurry, run, that guy is coming."
"Help, Grandpa,..."
"Wah..."
Gu Xiaoqing bellowed, "Shut up!"
Immediately, the world fell silent.
Gu Xiaoqing continued to try starting the car again, the big brother had reached the front, smashing the axe into the windshield, which quivered and cracked open a hole.
"Come out!"
The man shouted.
With his furious eyes and murderous ferocity, Gu Xiaoqing had no doubt about the fate that awaited them in his hands.
The axe in his hand came down once again.
As the windshield shattered completely, Gu Xiaoqing frantically slammed her foot on the accelerator, and the whole car charged toward the big brother, slamming into him at close range, sending him flying.
The van roared in a loop and sped away like a flash.
Gu Xiaoqing was sweating all over, the windshield long gone, the fierce cold wind now unable to make her feel cold.
Her body trembled, her fingers stiff. All Gu Xiaoqing could see was the blurred image of her crashing into the big brother, his startled eyes, and the moment he flew away.
Not caring whether he was dead or not, Gu Xiaoqing pressed on.
Wei Ziyun had already sat up.
Watching the van speeding down the unfamiliar road, she finally began to cry intensely.
Gu Xiaoqing didn’t even have the energy to shout at her to shut up.
Her whole body felt limp.
If not for the car being parked in this dark place, unsure what dangers lay ahead, Gu Xiaoqing could have collapsed right away.
After who knows how long, they finally saw lights ahead.
It looked like a town.
Gu Xiaoqing tiredly drove the van over, finding the nearest police station in the dazzling lights.
As Gu Xiaoqing and Wei Ziyun sat on the chairs in the police station, they finally felt like they had narrowly escaped death.
Soon countless phone calls were made.
When Gu Xiaoqing saw Fang Shaohan appear in front of her, she could no longer hold on and fainted.
Fang Shaohan caught the girl covered in blood, her eyes shining like midnight stars, watching her slowly close her eyes.
He felt a sudden shock in his heart.
When Gu Xiaoqing woke up again, she was already in a hospital room.
Opening her eyes, she saw white walls and white sheets.
Gu Xiaoqing looked at the IV in her arm.
She finally closed her eyes, recalling that thrilling scene.
The door opened, and someone came in.
Gu Xiaoqing opened her eyes to see Fang Shaohan.
She was stunned for a moment.
Gu Xiaoqing and Fang Shaohan were basically people who could never have interacted with each other.
Each disliked the other.
Fang Shaohan saw Gu Xiaoqing, wide-eyed and staring blankly at him, and he tried to give a smile: "You’re awake?"
"Yeah."
Gu Xiaoqing tried to sit up.
Fang Shaohan came over, propped her up, and tucked two pillows behind her back.
The movements were surprisingly gentle.
Gu Xiaoqing was puzzled, why would she use the word gentle to describe Fang Shaohan’s movements, this guy was hardly gentle in any way.
"Want some water, or something to eat? You’ve been asleep for two days and a night."
Fang Shaohan asked.
All that happened that night was later told by Wei Ziyun, who woke up first, in bits and pieces, of course, Wei Ziyun’s first claim was that Gu Xiaoqing had killed someone.
Saw Gu Xiaoqing drive the car and hit the man with the axe smashing the windshield.
Later, after following the tracks, they finally found the scene of the incident.
There they found the big brother who had been hit to death and Mr. Wu who had frozen to death.
According to the tracks there, it showed the crisis of that moment.
Fang Shaohan was very impressed with this girl, a sixteen-year-old girl, who was so clever and resourceful to save herself.
No wonder she could save her little brother Fang Shaonan back then. (To be continued. If you like this work, please come to Qidian (qidian.com) to vote for recommendation tickets, and monthly tickets, your support is my greatest motivation. Mobile users, please read at m.qidian.com.)
