Chapter 3551 - A Devil in a Mask 1
My Youth Began With Him-Webnovel
Huo Mian looked down and didnât say anything as she used Zeng Rouâs phone to open the map quickly.
She shrunk the map to see what roads were ahead of them.
âThe mountain roads are winding but they follow some distinct pattern. Every three small turns is followed by one big turn. The distance between the small turns is approximately 120 meters while the distance between the big turn and a small turn is approximately 300 meters.â
âWow, Dr. Huo.â
It was the first time Zeng Rou looked at Huo Mian with such admiration.
They werenât close before. Zeng Rou had only heard of rumors saying Huo Mian was smart but now that Zeng Rou saw it for herself, she was astonished by Huo Mianâs intelligence.
âKeep driving and Iâll advise you.â
âWhy donât you turn on the GPS and let it navigate me,â Zeng Rou suggested.
âNo, thatâll be too slow. We wonât make it. Donât be afraid and keep driving.â
Huo Mian and Zeng Rouâs intriguing conversation scared the two girls in the back to death. They were so scared that they held their breaths.
This obviously wasnât going to the countryside for a hike but a real life version of âFast and Furiousâ.
Did they want to kill themselves driving so fast on mountain roads?
âItâs dangerous driving so fast⦠Weâre above the speed limitâ¦â one of the girls in the backseats said in a low voice.
âIf they catch us, weâll be in greater danger, so should we care about being above the speed limit right now?â Huo Mianâs response shut the two girls up.
She knew that this pregnant woman was Zeng Rouâs friend. Otherwise, Zeng Rou wouldnât be so obedient.
âDummy, drive faster!â the head police officer shouted in the police car. He was very nervous.
However, the SUV in front of them was getting away.
âNo boss. If we go any faster, weâd be in danger. Itâs dark and the roads are winding. We donât want to dieâ¦â
âHahaha, we got some distance between them.â
Zeng Rou was able to drive ahead and eventually distance themselves from the police cars with Huo Mian advice.
âDonât let your guard down yet. Theyâre still tightly after us,â Huo Mian said calmly.
âHuo Mian, can you hold the steering wheel for a sec,â Zeng Rou said. Then she let go of the steering wheel and called someone on her cellphone.
âUncle Zhao, itâs me, Zeng Rou. Iâm in danger right now. Can you get someone to save me? My location right now is 20 miles away from Kaoshan Town. Iâm on the highway right now and our next exit is Liuyang River Town.â Then, she hung up.
Zeng Rou explained when she saw Huo Mian looking confused.
âHeâs my dadâs secretary. No need to worry.â
âOkay.â
When their car started approaching Liuyang River Town, Huo Mian was able to spot Qin Chuâs car from afar.
Very soon after they stopped the car, she rushed over and embraced Qin Chu.
âSo President Qin is here.â Zeng Rou smiled.
âThank you,â Qin Chu thanked Zeng Rou.
âYouâre welcome. Iâm happy I could help Huo Mian.â
âZeng Rou, we canât stop here. Hurry and go.â
âYou should leave first. Those people seem to be after you. Iâll stay and buy you some time.â
âNo. Thatâs too dangerous.â Huo Mian shook her head.
âDonât worry. My dadâs secretary has everything planned. Soon someone will help and save us. Iâm also someone well known and powerful here. The police wonât hurt me.â
Zeng Rou wanted to be the savior and Huo Mian knew those people were after her and not Zeng Rou, so even though she was uncomfortable leaving Zeng Rou and her friends here, she left with Qin Chu in his sports car.
âRou, whoâs that pregnant woman? Her husbandâs so handsomeâ¦â one of Zeng Rouâs friends whispered.
âSheâs a legend. You guys shouldnât ask too many questions.â
Only when she got in Qin Chuâs car did Huo Mian feel safer.
âWhen did you see Zeng Rou? Why would she be there at such a key timing? Isnât it too much of a coincidence?â Qin Chu asked calmly.
âHoney, are you suspicious of her?â Huo Mian could tell Qin Chu did not trust Zeng Rou.
