Chapter 405: In the Car
Translator: Lonelytree
Ah Ao had no idea what Mo Li was planning, but he didn’t say anything and only followed her orders.
Luo Cong’s car was forced to the edge of the overpass by Ah Ao. His left side was blocked off and the right was the railing. Other than to drive forward, there was nothing he could do. The two cars continued to drive down the road. Suddenly an idea came to Luo Cong. Eventually, the railing will end as we go down the overpass, then I’ll just drive off into the side and find a buffer to stop the car. That way, I won’t die!
Luo Cong grabbed the steering wheel as they approached the end of the overpass. The moment the rail disappeared, Luo Cong turned the steering wheel to the right. He would run into the trees and use that to cushion the crash. However, Ah Ao had guessed his thoughts. Ah Ao swung the rear of his car and used the car to smack into Luo Cong’s car. The giant impact sent Luo Cong’s car flying. Lu Ke slammed into the door. Luo Cong was also thrown off his seat. The steering wheel couldn’t be controlled.
Since the brake was faulty, the car flew ahead at full speed. The car rammed into a construction site. The car broke an advertising board of a coffee brand Mo Li endorsed. Without the buffer provided by the board, the two would have fallen into the foundation, which was more than 10 meters deep.
The car hung on the board with the front end facing downwards. Luo Cong’s car finally stopped but half of it was dangling in the air. The back was on land and the front was in the air, dipping into the hole.
Lu Ke had not experienced anything so scary before. His face paled and her body trembled. However as the car swayed, her body instinct kicked in and she reached for the car door.
“Miss Lu! Don’t open the door, if you move, we’re going to die!” Luo Cong was panicking in the driver’s seat. His breathing was shaky. If the car fell into the hole, he’d die.
Now he needed Lu Ke to keep the car balanced. The two needed to help each other for Luo Cong to get out safely.
“No… Open the door now. I need to get out, let me out now!” Lu Ke was a single child and her selfishness was on full display. She knew that once she left and the balance tipped, Luo Cong would die but she couldn’t care about the man’s life. She just wanted to get out.
Lu Ke repeated the same demands. Lu Ke was panicking. Every time she moved, the car would sway further.
Luo Cong was very angry because the woman was putting them in extra danger. If not for the situation they were in, he would go and slap the woman. But for the sake of his life, he tried to reason with Lu Ke. “Just listen to me. Call the police now and don’t move or we’ll both die.”
Lu Ke didn’t trust Luo Cong at all. She was kidnapped into the car so why should she listen to him? She had the chance to survive so why should she risk her life for him? “You are you, and I am me. Now I just want to leave and I don’t want to see you ever again.” Lu Ke wished for the man to die, that way she’d save some money too. Lu Ke was so angry that she’d lost her mind. She just wanted Luo Cong to open the door.

Due to her movements, the car slid down further. Lu Ke’s tears fell. If she knew this would happen, she wouldn’t have cooperated with Luo Cong. Luo Cong was very stubborn too. He refused to open the car lock. “I’m telling you, you are not going to get out of this on your own. If something happens to me, you won’t leave this car too. If you won’t save me then die with me!”
Lu Ke shook her head and screamed madly. Then the car continued to shake forward into the hole. Luo Cong still didn’t want to open the lock. The alcohol and the drug weakened him but he refused to let go of the lock. No one could stop him.
“Open the door! Open the door now!”
Compelled by her desire to live, Lu Ke crawled towards Luo Cong and his hands that held the car lock. After some struggle, Lu Ke managed to get the lock opened!
Luo Cong then turned to grab Lu Ke by her arm. “You are not going anywhere! You forced me to do this!”
