Chapter 7442
Treating Human Life Like Grass
It was rare for Qin Xianglan to be a driver for a man.
Even so, having Xiao Chen sitting beside her, even though he remained silent the whole way, gave her a strange sense of security, as if even if the sky were to fall, this reclusive powerhouse would be there to hold it up, so she wouldn't have to bother dealing with the various forces.
"Mr. Xiao, we will arrive at Mingxin Manor in about fifteen minutes."
Qin Xianglan spoke softly, breaking the silence inside the car.
"Ah."
Xiao Chen responded faintly, still keeping his eyes closed to rest, his expression calm.
Qin Xianglan was an extremely skilled driver. Although her speed was not slow, she drove exceptionally smoothly, with almost no noticeable jerking.
Xiao Chen was happy to have some peace and quiet and could focus on consolidating his cultivation.
Just then, two violent and ear-piercing engine roars suddenly came from behind, like roaring beasts, approaching from afar at an astonishing speed, closing in considerably in an instant!
Qin Xianglan glanced at the rearview mirror subconsciously, her expression suddenly changed slightly, and her fingers unconsciously tightened around the steering wheel...
Two extravagantly styled supercars, one black and one silver, were seen accelerating wildly, swerving left and right and speeding recklessly on the winding mountain road, completely disregarding road conditions and vehicles in front of them, displaying an attitude of utter recklessness!
When she saw the license plate of the silver supercar, her expression darkened even more... It started with "京A" followed by a string of special numbers symbolizing top power. This was a car belonging to the Bai family of the capital!
The Bai family is a martial arts family with a profound heritage in the capital. They are arrogant and domineering, and have always been high-minded. No one in the martial arts world of China has ever dared to provoke them easily.
The other black supercar, though with an unfamiliar license plate, clearly had an extraordinary background due to its arrogant consecutive numbers, and was not something an ordinary wealthy family could possess.
The two cars appeared on the mountain road leading to Mingxin Villa, their purpose was self-evident... they must also be people attending the banquet.
But everyone knows that the speed limit on this mountain road is 60 kilometers per hour, while the speedometer needles of those two supercars have probably already exceeded 180. Their engines roar like ferocious beasts, and their tires roll over the road, kicking up a sky full of gravel, arrogant and unrestrained!
madman!
Qin Xianglan frowned, cursed inwardly, and subconsciously swerved the steering wheel to the right, trying to stay as close as possible to the edge of the mountain road to make room for the two crazy cars... She didn't want to cause trouble, and even less did she want to create unnecessary complications before attending the banquet.
However, the two supercars showed no intention of slowing down or giving way. Instead, their engines became even more violent and ear-piercing, like the roar of wild beasts, as they attempted to force their way past each other on the narrow two-way road!
The piercing horn blared wildly like a death knell, filled with impatient arrogance, as if Qin Xianglan's car blocking their way was a heinous crime.
Qin Xianglan's pretty face instantly frosted over, a hint of anger flashing in her eyes. She had no choice but to grit her teeth and lightly press the accelerator, trying to accelerate and create distance to avoid these two menacing figures.
But the other party's supercar performance was clearly far superior to her car!
Especially that black white supercar, like an arrow released from a bow, almost grazed the left side of her sports car, and overtook her aggressively with a "whoosh" of less than a finger's width of space between them!
"Zi la...!"
A sharp, ear-piercing metallic scraping sound suddenly pierced through the mountain mist. A hideous, glaring scratch was instantly slashed across the left side of Qin Xianglan's sports car. Sparks flew like rain, and the car shook violently, nearly crashing into the rocky mountainside beside it!
Qin Xianglan's heart leaped into her throat; her knuckles turned white from gripping the steering wheel so tightly, and her palms instantly became sweaty. Misfortune never comes singly!
The silver supercar behind, seeing its companion overtake first, directed its anger at Qin Xianglan, who was "blocking the way," for not being able to overtake immediately.
In the instant it was rapidly approaching, its front end suddenly veered to the right, like a raging bull, and slammed into the left rear side of Qin Xianglan's sports car!
"boom……!"
A muffled, loud bang exploded, the car body shook violently, Qin Xianglan felt a tremendous force, her hands were violently pulled, the steering wheel was instantly out of control, and the whole car slid wildly toward the cliff railing on the right like a wild horse!
Beyond the railing lies a deep valley, hundreds of feet deep, with swirling clouds and jagged rocks below. A fall into such a place would mean certain death, with no chance of survival whatsoever!
Qin Xianglan felt ice-cold all over, and her palms were already soaked with cold sweat. Her life and Xiao Chen's life were now entirely in the hands of this out-of-control steering wheel!
She tried her best to steer in the opposite direction, her toes frantically struggling between the brake and the accelerator... She dared not brake suddenly, for fear that the vehicle would overturn and plunge off the cliff, but such a hasty adjustment was obviously too late!
What chilled her to the bone and fueled her rage even more was that the window of the silver supercar slowly rolled down, and a hand wearing a Patek Philippe watch reached out, giving her the middle finger with utter contempt, the fingertip even twitching twice on purpose!
Behind the car window was a young, arrogant face, filled with indifference and disdain, his eyes as cold as ice, as if the near-fatal accident was nothing more than crushing an insignificant ant.
Is this the arrogance of the scions of top families in the capital?
They treat other people's lives like dirt, act recklessly and without any moral bottom line!
Qin Xianglan watched helplessly as the silver supercar sped away, alongside the black supercar. She strained with all her might to control the vehicle, but the front of the car was less than two meters from the guardrail at the edge of the cliff, and the shadow of death instantly loomed over her.
At the critical moment, Xiao Chen, who had been resting with his eyes closed, suddenly opened them!
A chilling glint flashed in his eyes, the air around him instantly froze, and an invisible, immense pressure suddenly spread out.
Without him making any large movements, a vast and incomparable invisible force suddenly surged from his body, like a giant net, instantly enveloping the entire sports car!
"Creak...creak...!"
The sharp sound of tires rubbing against the ground pierced the valley, and sparks flew higher and denser!
The car, which had been hurtling out of control toward the guardrail, seemed to be pulled back and held down by an invisible giant hand. Its speed decreased sharply, and the car shook violently. It came to a steady stop just half a meter away from the guardrail...
The wheels were suspended in mid-air, almost plunging into the deep valley; it was extremely dangerous!
Qin Xianglan was still in shock, her chest heaving as she gasped for breath. She instinctively turned around and saw Xiao Chen's face was ashen, his eyes cold and icy, like a thousand-year-old iceberg, without the slightest ripple.
He placed one hand lightly on the center console in front of him, and faint ripples of energy emanated from the air. The immense power that had just saved their lives came from him!
"Change positions."
"Chase."
Xiao Chen's voice was calm without any fluctuation, yet it carried an undeniable coldness and domineering aura. Each word was like an ice bead hitting a jade plate.
Although he had his eyes closed and was regulating his breathing, he could clearly perceive everything that happened outside, even the slightest scratching sound or horn horn noise.
The two supercars' deliberate provocation and rudeness, especially that insulting gesture at the end, completely ignited the anger in his heart. (End of Chapter)
