Chapter 161 A Critical Time
“It’d be bad if this continues. That car will definitely collide with ours. If that really happens, it’d be difficult to say whether we would live or die!” Bai Chen said while looking out the window of the Mercedes-Benz.
He could see clearly that the distance between that black Mazda and their Mercedes-Benz was already less than three meters.
“......”
Xu Xin Tong did not say anything after hearing what Bai Chen said. She went completely silent. Her face got even paler with every moment.
Even though she still looked somewhat icy, that iciness would not help them out of this situation.
Xu Xin Tong knew full well that no matter how good she was, she would not be able to avoid the black Mazda that was moving towards them with incredible speed against the flow of traffic.
Even if she turned the car in a different direction, it would chase after and crash into her anyway.
‘Will I die like this?’
Xu Xin Tong could not help but think this. The thought scared her. It was the very same feeling she’d had as when she was being chased by the great assassin Hei Chang.
It was only normal to fear death. She was a mere human after all. Even though possessed of greater coolness, she would not be able to stop her fear when faced with a matter of life and death like this.
Not only Xu Xin Tong but also others, men or women. When they had to face this kind of situation, they would be scared too.
There were those who were not scared, too, but they were only a minority.
One of them was sitting right here. It was none other than Bai Chen, the one sitting in the passenger seat. His face was serious, but it did not show any sign of fear.
This was because he believed that he could jump out of the car in time before the two cars collided.
The reason why he thought so was because of the stargazing walker skill that he possessed. He strongly believed that with the stargazing walker skill, he could survive jumping out of the car.
The stargazing walker skill would help not only protect him from slamming onto the ground, but also allow him to land softly without a single wound.
“We have to jump out of the car!”
Bai Chen’s firm tone of voice sounded. He looked at those beautiful, trembling eyes that were fixed on him immediately after his words.
“A... Are you mad?!? If we do that, we’ll...” Xu Xin Tong was clearly panicked. Her cool voice had gone so dry and soft that it was difficult to hear.
She did not agree with Bai Chen at all. Jumping out of the car now obviously meant death.
At this speed, they would die for sure!
But Xu Xin Tong did not think about how they would die anyway even without jumping out of the car!
“We have no choice. I assure you that we’ll be safe!”
Bai Chen did not care whether Xu Xin Tong agreed with him or not. In this kind of situation, he had to decide quickly to compete against the time.
He unbuckled his seat belt and then Xu Xin Tong’s. His movement was so fast, Xu Xin Tong did not have time to stop him.
“Y... You!” Xu Xin Tong panicked. Her face paled even more. She thought that Bai Chen was being too reckless in jumping out of the car in this critical situation.
But in this kind of situation, whatever they did, they would die anyway!
She finally gritted her teeth and decided that she would jump out of the car like Bai Chen suggested. She opened the car door.
A violent gust of wind blew against her immediately after the door was opened. Xu Xin Tong’s and Bai Chen’s hair fluttered in the wind. They could feel the cold on their faces as the strong wind hit.
“Let’s go!”
Bai Chen, seeing that Xu Xin Tong had finally agreed with his idea, nodded firmly. He put one arm around Xu Xin Tong’s small, soft waist before jumping out of the Mercedes-Benz!
His action was fast and firm. Xu Xin Tong’s face reddened from Bai Chen’s touch. She could not help but feel nervous in Bai Chen’s embrace.
This was the first time she had been embraced by a man. She could feel his breath against the nape of her neck.
Xu Xin Tong would be quite angry if this were to happen in normal circumstances. However, she did not have time to be angry at all in this kind of situation.
She closed her eyes and compressed her lips tightly. It was as if she had already let go of herself and left her life to destiny.
Even though she was afraid of death, if destiny called for her, she would not be able to fight against it. It was only normal to be born, grow old, get hurt, and die anyway.
That was the reason why Xu Xin Tong was leaving her life up to her destiny.
Only a few seconds had passed since the two had jumped out of the car when the black Mazda and the Mercedes-Benz collided!
Crash!
The sound of the crash was loud. The two crumpled cars rushed down the road. They were no longer in a beautiful condition, but pieces of scrap metal.
The sound of car burglar alarms filled the area.
The two cars finally came to a stop after they slid down the road a little over a meter. Fortunately, there were no cars around, otherwise, there would have been additional accidents for sure.
The cars were in terrible condition. The front of the cars was crumpled and pieces of them were scattered messily around the area.
The two cars also have something else in common. There was nobody inside either of them!
No! There was no one. It was easy to guess that that foreign assassin from Hell Shadow had jumped out of the car just before the collision like what Bai Chen and Xu Xin Tong had done!
At this moment, the foreigner rolled down the side of the road. His clothes were torn. However, there was not a wound in sight, not even a scrape.
He was not a strong superhero or anything. He was only wearing a high-quality cushioned body armour.
Plus, he was so well-trained that he could protect his head when his body hit the surface of the road. Therefore, he was totally fine without any wounds.
