When Cheng Yuan heard the driver say that she was going to take a shortcut, her expression changed instantly and she immediately became alert.


Her instinctive reaction to unknown dangers might have been a habit she developed as a soldier.


"Stop the car, I"m not going to the city, take me back to the hotel!" Two minutes after the driver turned the car onto another road, Cheng Yuan coldly demanded.


"Ha, you seem to be quite vigilant!" The driver didn"t want to pretend to be a good person anymore. He reached under his seat and took out a gun. Then, he fired at Cheng Yuan who was sitting in the back seat.


"b.a.s.t.a.r.d!" Although Cheng Yuan"s reaction was fast, the bullet still grazed past her shoulder. Blood immediately splattered and dyed her clothes red.


The driver didn"t expect to be able to shoot this woman at such a close range. He was shocked, and in the next second, a handbag slammed down on his hand with such force that even a man as big as a cow couldn"t stand the force and the gun fell to the ground.


At this moment, a scarf came from behind and strangled the driver. He wanted to pick up the gun, but he couldn"t. His face was red and he had no strength to resist.


The taxi lost control of itself and started to run into the underbrush, flying all the way to the cliff.


Cheng Yuan made up her mind to strangle the man who had fired the gun. If he didn"t die, then she would die.


The taxi was completely disoriented, and Cheng Yuan"s hand loosened for a moment, allowing the man to find an opportunity to resist. He threw a punch backwards, but Cheng Yuan didn"t manage to dodge in time, and got a punch to her nose, causing blood to flow out from the side of her nose.


"You"re courting death!" Cheng Yuan used her hand to chop at the man"s neck forcefully. With a snap, the man died.


Cheng Yuan saw that the speed of the car didn"t slow down. On the contrary, because of the downhill slope, her speed became even more frenzied.


Cheng Yuan was so scared that her face turned pale. At this time, she could only run for her life.


Unfortunately, the car"s door was locked, so she could only forcefully kick the door of the car. The moment the car flew out, she was thrown out of the car and into the churning sea along with the car.


The ice-cold bone-piercing seawater poured into her mouth and nose and directly into her five viscera and six stomachs.


If not for her strong mental strength, she would have been scared to death by now. Cheng Yuan was no ordinary woman, as she had the experience of training in the wilderness to escape, so even though she fell from the sky, she managed to keep her breath the moment she fell into the water.


She swam towards the sh.o.r.e with all her might. The cold sea water was deep to the bone, swallowing up her last bit of willpower.


"I can"t die! I don"t want to die!" In her heart, only the instinct to survive was left, supporting her frozen body.


Finally, she swam to the sh.o.r.e. It wasn"t a good place to rescue her, but a cave next to the suspended sh.o.r.e.


Cheng Yuan held her last breath and rolled her body into the small cave.


Her body was frozen solid, but her mind was still clear. She knew there was definitely more than one murderer, and that b.a.s.t.a.r.d definitely had some accomplices nearby to support her, so she couldn"t rush to escape, but once she met that person"s accomplice on her way, she had no other choice but to escape. She had to hide in this cave, hoping that she would have a chance to escape before she froze to death.


Cheng Yuan"s guess was right. Not long after the taxi fell into the sea, two cars drove over and five or six people quickly ran to the place where the sea fell. They looked at the cliff that was dozens of meters tall.


"Looks like he"s completely dead!" One of them whistled, in a good mood.


"Then we will be able to report our wrongs. With this money, we can do whatever we want. Don"t feel wronged anymore. It"s just a pity for our good brothers to die for our good days." The other man was also extremely excited. It was as if he had seen a beautiful tomorrow as he waved his hand.


"Wait a minute, do you think that woman will die that easily? We should at least look for her body. " One of the men said cautiously.


"Who goes down to look? You? With such a big wave, she should have already gone down to feed the sharks. I don"t want to see such a disgusting scene down there! "


"Exactly, who would still be alive after falling down?" The other man shrugged.


In the end, the group of people walked around the mountain and found that not even dregs of a taxi could be seen. They were all a.s.sured that Cheng Yuan was dead.


Cheng Yuan"s bag followed the taxi to the bottom of the sea. She wanted to notify Lan Yanxi, but lacked the strength. In the cold, she fainted.


Lan Yanxi drew randomly on the notebook in boredom. She actually wanted to write out Ling Mofeng"s name, because when a person loves another person in their heart, they would want to secretly write out their name. It was an instinct to release their feelings.


In the end, she could only restrain herself, because she didn"t dare to show her feelings.


Qiao Zhuo was sitting not far behind Lan Yanxi. His phone suddenly vibrated. He sneakily took out his phone to take a look. Suddenly, a proud smile appeared on his gloomy face. Cheng Yuan, who had blocked his way, was dead.


Actually, Qiao Zhuo did not have much resentment towards Cheng Yuan. He only felt that she was hindering his good fortune, and it made him want to make her disappear from this world.


Everything was going well for him. Cheng Yuan was solved so easily, so he had to make the best use of his time to deal with Lan Yanxi.


Qiao Zhuo"s obsession with Lan Yanxi became deeper and deeper. Every day, he would see her swaying in front of his eyes. His already restless heart became heavier and heavier.


He actually felt that Lan Yanxi"s stupefied appearance was so beautiful, not to mention that when she smiled, her smile was so sweet and pure that it would make people want to take a bite out of it.


Qiao Zhuo had actually already thought of a way to trick Lan Yanxi out of it. Now that Cheng Yuan had died, he had to take action at night. Otherwise, it would be troublesome if Ling Mofeng found out.


When Lan Yanxi called Cheng Yuan at lunchtime to confirm that she wasn"t in the service area, her mind buzzed.


How could he not be in the service area? What did that mean?


Wasn"t Cheng Yuan going downtown to look for her friend? It was impossible for the mayor to have no signal. Furthermore, Cheng Yuan had always been very concerned about her. Previously, she would go to the washroom and stay there for a second, but now, she had unexpectedly disappeared for a long time without any news. This caused Lan Yanxi to be alarmed.


Lan Yanxi tried calling a few more times, but the results were all the same. Cheng Yuan"s phone had lost its signal, so this was definitely the first time something like this had happened.


"Cheng Yuan, don"t let anything happen to you!" Lan Yanxi was so anxious that her eyes turned red. She didn"t even have time to eat lunch and immediately went back to her room to find a spare phone. It was her contact method with Lieutenant Chu.


"Miss Lan, is there something?" Lieutenant Chu"s voice came out.


"Cheng Yuan went to look for her friends in the city in the early morning. She still hasn"t come back and even if I called her, I couldn"t reach her. Lieutenant Chu, could she be in danger?" Lan Yanxi asked anxiously.


"If something like that happens, I"ll call her. Please wait a moment!" After Lieutenant Chu finished speaking, he hung up and also made two phone calls to Cheng Yuan. It was exactly as Lan Yanxi had said, there was no way to reach her and it was filled with sounds.


"Miss Lan, don"t be anxious. I have already installed a tracking device on her phone, I"m going to look for her location right now!" Lieutenant Chu hung up the phone after he finished speaking.


Lan Yanxi was so anxious that cold sweat broke out on her forehead. She was worried that something bad would happen to Cheng Yuan. After all, protecting her was a very dangerous thing to do. If it really involved her, Lan Yanxi would blame herself more.


At that moment, there was a knock on the door to her room. She was startled.


Lan Yanxi walked vigilantly to the door with antic.i.p.ation. Could it be that Cheng Yuan had returned?
