“…Answer the call, Li Nanchen!”

Wu Mei stepped all the way down on the accelerator. Out of the corner of her eye, she saw that the call did not get picked up. She murmured, “Don’t you want to hear my explanation?”

The numbers on the speedometer soared till she finally saw Li Nanchen’s taillight.

She pressed on the ear-piercing horn to get him to stop the car. However, even though he clearly heard her, he merely slowed the car down. Through the rearview mirror, he saw Wu Mei’s frown. He continued driving and said with pursed lips, “With the current situation, you’re the one who’s angry?”

Wu Mei gritted her teeth and showed off her superb driving skills. She drifted the car and came to a halt in front of Li Nanchen. When she saw that he had switched off the engine, she got out of the car and knocked on his glass as she said, “Come out! Let’s talk! No matter what you heard, it was not my intention or true feelings!”

Li Nanchen rolled down the car window. His lips curled up into a self-deprecating smile as he asked, “Oh? Why did you abandon a man who is thousands of times better than me and chase after me?”

He really did hear it!

Wu Mei sighed and wanted to open the car door. However, she saw that Li Nanchen had locked himself inside…

“!”

The tail lights of Li Nanchen’s car shone. Wu Mei leaned in through the car window and wrapped her arms around his neck. She kissed his lips lightly and took the initiative to tease him gently.

Very quickly, Li Nanchen’s expression changed from surprise to one of indulgence. He wrapped his arms around her beautiful neck and leaned out to deepen the kiss…

Seeing that he had calmed down, Wu Mei moved her hand away from his face and pressed the tip of her nose against his forehead.

“Want to talk to me?”

Li Nanchen’s anger was mostly appeased by her. He got out of the car and took off his jacket to put it on her shoulders. The two of them sat on the roof of the SUV and gazed at the stars in the sky.

As she felt the familiar ebony fragrance wrap around her, Wu Mei felt exceptionally at ease as she leaned her head on Li Nanchen’s shoulder.

“There’s something wrong with Mom’s mental state. She is very against you for some reason. The moment your name is mentioned, she will scream or even commit suicide!”

“I had no choice but to go along with her and lie to her that I would keep my distance from you.”

“There are many men who are more outstanding than you in this world, but… I’m probably used to the feeling of having you by my side.” Wu Mei did not express her love openly, but her words revealed how important and special Li Nanchen was to her.

This satisfied Li Nanchen. He could not help but smile and poke her face, wanting to seek more rewarding comfort!

Wu Mei frowned and pushed his face away. She mocked him in disdain, “How old are you? If there’s a misunderstanding, you should clarify it in person. What’s the point of fleeing?”

Li Nanchen held her hands in his palms and said softly, “That’s because I’m afraid of hearing an answer that I cannot bear…”

He was afraid of losing Wu Mei!

This thought became clearer with time.

With the misunderstanding cleared up, the two of them returned to the villa. However, along the way, Wu Mei acutely caught sight of the two SUVs that were tracking them in the rearview mirror.

Looks like they are here with bad intentions!

Wu Mei analyzed the situation with a frown, “There are at least six people with weapons. We came out in a hurry and don’t have any defensive items on us. This set of pajamas… I didn’t even bring a dagger with me! Are there firearms in the car?”

“No.”

Li Nanchen tried to increase his speed to shake the other party off. However, the assassins’ SUV had been modified and had excellent functions. Very quickly, the distance between them was closed till they were almost side by side.

“I’ll lure them away. Get out of the car and find a safe place to hide!”

Li Nanchen used the sports car to shuttle through the nearby streets and distanced himself from the assassins again.

However, Wu Mei refused sternly, “I was sent by the Ministry of Defense to protect you. You should be the one hiding and seeking help. Leave the car with me in the alley ahead. Go and hide…”

Crash!

She had turned around anxiously to see if the cars were tailing them. However, she did not expect Li Nanchen to deal a heavy blow to her neck and knock her unconscious!

Li Nanchen hid Wu Mei in the alley and covered her with his jacket. He kissed her forehead and returned to the highway to start racing!

The assassins seemed to be tired of chasing after him. They pulled out their guns and fired at his tires.

Li Nanchen dodged in a serpentine manner. At the same time, he called the Ministry of Defense and informed them of the situation and his location.

In front of him was a cordoned road that was under construction . Seeing that the assassins were about to catch up, Li Nanchen gritted his teeth and abruptly turned the steering wheel to change the direction of the car, charging towards the railing…

Crash!

With a loud crash, the car rammed through the railing and plummeted into the river, swiftly sinking.

“Wu Mei! She can’t be hurt. That’s good enough…”

Li Nanchen’s head smashed into the car window and blood flowed down his forehead. As he retained his last bit of consciousness, he murmured to himself. He seemed to have seen a hallucination in front of him and he smiled in relief.

“Stop, don’t move!”

The Special Agents from the Ministry of Defense quickly rushed to the scene and surrounded the assassins who were about to fire shots at the river. At the same time, they sent someone to save Li Nanchen..
