CHAPTER 860: CHAPTER 864: BORN A REBEL (14)

The taxi driver tentatively said, "How about I take you back?"

Su Li: "No need, thank you." The car was already halfway, almost at the destination.

The taxi driver shook his head regrettably and stopped talking.

The Yangming Mountain had a tunnel circling the mountain, the road conditions were both dangerous and steep, and the road surface was narrow.

If the car was driven at a normal speed, it would be quite safe, but if the speed increased even slightly, it could become terrifying.

Especially with so many curves, and the guardrails beside the mountain walls didn’t look very sturdy. If hit with force, both the car and people could tumble down the mountain.

The scenery at the top of Yangming Mountain wasn’t particularly unique, and the road conditions were dangerous, so usually, aside from some thrill-seeking rich second generation racing here, ordinary people wouldn’t come here.

The driver’s car only reached two-thirds up the mountain road; visibility wasn’t good at night, and he didn’t dare to risk going further.

The rest of the way, Su Li could only rely on her legs to walk up.

As she was getting off the car, the taxi driver couldn’t help but ask again, "Girl, why don’t you just not go up there? I’ll take you back and won’t charge you."

Su Li smiled faintly, "Uncle, you are a good person."

"Good people will be rewarded with good things."

Seeing Su Li dressed like this, most people’s first impression would classify her as a delinquent girl. How could someone not look at her with a biased perspective, yet still tirelessly persuade her?

The taxi driver sighed helplessly when he heard this.

Since the child wouldn’t listen to advice, he couldn’t force her to leave.

Just as the taxi driver was turning the car around to head back, Su Li bent down, curled her index finger, and lightly knocked on the car window beside the cockpit.

"Uncle, you are a good person. Good people are surely rewarded with good things."

----------

After leaving the range of Yangming Mountain, Lu Hui drove his car fast.

A chill continuously crept from the soles of his feet up through his body, and various strange urban legends kept popping into his mind, making his heart race.

Involuntarily, he recalled the strange young woman he had just driven.

With her long black curly hair and charming, alluring looks.... He watched as she walked gracefully into the pitch-black night and felt a sudden chill down his back.

If not for being sure he picked her up near the bustling school, and she had a shadow, he would have really thought...

Thought he had encountered something unspeakable.

When she first said, "Uncle, you are a good person. Good people are surely rewarded," he just found it a bit strange.

Not strange like being given a good person card, but rather her twisting attitude.

But as she repeatedly emphasized this sentence, it gave him an uneasy feeling.

Especially paired with her eyes, darker and brighter than the night itself, set in this environment, and her words, firm and promise-like, were quite unnerving.

In any case, the feeling at the time wasn’t very comfortable. It wasn’t until his car merged from a secluded spot into traffic that he calmed down his nerves.

At once, Lu Hui felt a bit foolish again. The other party was clearly just a pretty girl, had he scared himself?

Lu Hui shook his head, feeling a bit regretful.

Such a polite young lady.

Everyone knew Yangming Mountain, a gathering place for rich youngsters racing cars.

Other drivers occasionally got orders from pretty girls going there too.

The rich youths’ pastimes usually involved luxury cars and beauties, often courting disaster.

The girls who mixed with those rich youths all had grand ambitions, but in reality.... there was only one word for it, foolish.

Expecting sincerity from someone who takes you to do such dangerous activities is naïve.

Men’s minds, him being a man himself, he understood.

Seeing that girl, though her dress style differed from the older generation’s taste, she seemed about the same age as his daughter. In Cheng Hui’s mind, she was a girl gone astray.

Thinking about his daughter also having had such a rebellious phase, he naturally felt a kinship towards her and didn’t want her doing anything she’d regret later.

A few years ago, there was a racing accident on Yangming Mountain.

A red sports car had an accident on a turn, broke through the guardrails, and plunged to the bottom of the cliff, leaving one dead and one injured.

The person in the passenger seat was a beautiful female university student; although her life was saved, she was paralyzed from the neck down and her life was ruined forever.

As tragic as this was, the rumor was that the driver had a powerful family background, and couldn’t accept the death of their son. Although the girl had suffered enough, they didn’t relent, causing unrest in the girl’s family.

Cheng Hui didn’t want that girl he recently saw to meet a similar fate.

The young rich played out of control, courting disaster, and even if a girl is after luxury, it shouldn’t be at the risk of her life.

Yet, despite his multiple attempts to persuade her, she stubbornly wouldn’t listen, leaving him helpless.

Cheng Hui sighed again, focusing intently on driving.

The private channel in the car timely announced a message.

"Everyone, avoid the road leading into the city from Yangming Mountain, there’s been an accident, two cars collided, and the intersection is now blocked."

Cheng Hui’s heart sank, he straightened up, rolled down the window, and stretched his neck to look outside.

He was right on this road now.

Ahead, sure enough, he saw the police tape, with traffic police already handling it.

Cheng Hui’s car was stopped by the police, and he had to take a detour.

He complained a bit in the private channel about his misfortune.

His closest friend immediately called him, saying, "Cheng Hui, you are indeed unlucky. If you take the detour, the route is long, and you’ll waste a lot of time."

"Isn’t that right," Cheng Hui wasn’t in a good mood.

His mischievous friend added, "But you were bound to go through this once."

"If you hadn’t picked up that last customer, I was going to introduce a regular customer to you, also heading towards Yangming Mountain."

Cheng Hui thought about it, and it seemed today’s misfortune was destined.

If he hadn’t picked up that girl’s business, he definitely would have taken the introduction from his friend, thus encountering this nonetheless.

Cheng Hui sighed, "No wonder my right eyelid kept twitching today, turns out it was this getting fulfilled."

After hanging up the call, Cheng Hui resignedly turned his car around, but accidents happen in mere moments.

A truck came charging in his direction at a blistering speed.

Because of the previous accident ahead, many small cars were stuck there; the truck directly demolished several small cars, and under the force, the large truck box toppled over, crashing to the ground.

In Cheng Hui’s eyes, he saw the truck box approaching from afar.

Everything seemed to slow down before him, unavoidable, he could only stare as the truck box came crashing towards him.

He would surely be crushed into mince-meat, hopefully, his daughter would still be able to recognize him.

Cheng Hui found himself thinking, without even having time for fear, the next second, his vision went black, the green taxi crushed under the truck box.
