1318 Words
He stooped over and carried Lin Bingqing from the blood and mumbled "Mom, you clean up here. Yuchen, you're coming with me."
Lu Rongshen strode out of the house.
Later at night, one red and one black car drove out of the villa.
A person in the dark immediately dialed a phone call with his eyes glistening.
"Mr.Gu, there were two cars driving out of Lu family."
“Follow up.” A voice came from on the other side of the phone with indifference.
"Yes."
The two cars galloped along the road, heading for the cliff.
The red car skidded to a sudden stop with a screeching sound. Yun Yuchen who was driving behind was startled and pressed on the brake immediately.
Her heart almost popped out as she watched Lu Rongshen opening the car door.
Suddenly his phone started to ring. He picked up the call with trembling hands as his heartbeat rose.
“Rongshen.” She spoke up in a trembling voice with overwhelming fear inside.
What exactly is Lu Rongshen doing?
"Go get the wine bottle in the car."
The phone was hung up immediately. Yun Yuchen, with blank mind, did as she was told.
"Rongshen, what do you want to do?"
In the dark of the night, Lin Bingqing looked so terrifying as her head was covered in blood, which gave Yun Yuchen goosebumps, forcing her to take her eyes off Lin Bingqing.
Noticing the beaming smile on Lu Rongshen's face, Yun Yuchen felt so thrilled.
He fastened Lin Bingqing with the safety belt rude and nervous. Without any further ado, he grabbed the wine from Yun Yuchen and poured the wine into the mouth of Lin Bingqing.
With her pupils concentrated and terror creeping into her body, Yun Yuchen felt such fright at seeing this that her heart was going to pop out from her throat.
They are now at the construction site for a bridge which is more than 10 meters tall and with a steep cliff right ahead. Isn’t it clear to see what he is planning on?
Lin Bingqing still had no reaction to the pouring of the whole bottle of wine on her.
Lu Rongshen threw aside the empty bottle and fixed her into right position before he slammed close the door without any trace of hesitation.
With the bang from the slamming, the car started to move forward. Yun Yuchen had a shiver from head to toe.
“Let’s get out of here.” Lu Rongshen said in a freezing tone to Yun Yuchen as he grabbed her hands and turned away.
Yun Yuchen, feeling the chill of the air spreading toward her, followed up the steps of Lu Rongshen with obedience.
She was afraid of being tucked in the car like he did with Lin Bingqing if she dared to defy him.
A boom came from behind, so loud as to make Yuchen almost fell onto her knees while Lu Rongshen on the contrary took a sigh of relief.
"We haven't been here tonight, and we haven't seen Lin Bingqing, are you clear?"
"Of course," Yun Yuchen nodded with panic all over her face.
Lu Rongshen had a beaming smile, took Yun Yuchen into his arms and kissed her on the lips.
"Yuchen, I love you."
“I love you too.” she replied with uncontrollable tremble in her voice.
However sweet he talks, it just could not strike any affection in her towards Lu Rongshen. All she could feel was deep and profound terror.
“Let’s get married right now.” he proposed.
The black car took its way from the spot without any trace of its presence here.
A few minutes later, A loud sound of explosion broke out under the bridge with flame crawling high into the air.

The golden sun shone through the window on King's size queen bed, on which was lying a woman with her slim and fair-skinned figure covered under the black printed satin quilt. The thin and white body was almost hidden in the black printed brocade.
Pale as her face was with a bandage on her forehead and numerous fine wounds on her face, still she looked so charming.
She fell asleep with a terrible pain in her head.
A clear picture flashed back to her mind: Someone smashed her head by grabbing her hair onto the tea table with so great strength that it could almost killed her.
"Ah."
She was awaken up with her eyes wide open, panting and sweating.
A white and delicate chandelier came into her sight, which was not the one she was familiar with back in Lu family.
Three men in white coat rushed to the bedside on hearing her screaming and started a row of checks on her.
Are they doctors? Did Lu Rongshen take her to the hospital?
Lin Bingqing could not think straight. She heard someone talking beside her.
"Mr.Gu, the lady is picking up really well but she needs a few days of rest though."
Mr.Gu? Who's this guy?
It wasn't Lu Rongshen who brought her to the hospital?
“Yeah.” Answered the man in a very magnetic voice from her side.
The doctors went out and the voice came again.
"Since you have regain your consciousness, let's have a talk."
The voice sounded very demanding. Lin Bingqing struggled to turn her head and saw a broad shouldered man approaching her.
He is really tall, with a height of nearly 1.9 meters.
He was dressed in a black suit, well-built with flawless facial features to the point of perfection. Especially those deep-set eyes give a feeling of irresistible attraction to her.
However this face looked very familiar to her.
"I am Gu Beicheng, you are pregnant with my child."
Lin Bingqing felt like her mind went blank and questioned "What did you say!".
Her voice was hoarse and excited. She struggled to get up from the bed but fell down due to a fit of dizziness.
He looked at Lin Bingqing in peace and went on "We slept on May 20 in the bar.".
That day suddenly came across her mind, the day she went to the bar with Lu Rongshen for the celebration of her birthday.
So is all true what Yun Yuchen and Lu Rongshen told her?
No! No way! This man must be sent by Lu Rongshen and all he said was lie!
"What about Lu Rongshen? I want to see him! He can’t take away all the properties even if I cheated on him. Lin’s group is her premarital properties!"
She shuddered and shouted, she could get divorced but would never lose all her legacies left to her by her parents to Lu Rongshen!
Gu Beicheng looked at Lin Bingqing throwing her temper without any intention to calm her down but instead he had a trace of satisfaction in his eyes.
"Take a look at today's news."
A newspaper was fluttering to her. Her attention was drawn to the shocking deadline as she tried to throw it aside.
"The only daughter of Lin's group was proved dead in a car accident without her body incinerated in the fire. How tragic it was that the once-influential Lin family ended up in fire."
Lin Bingqing started to tremble and stared at the news with her eyes wide open in shock.
Is she the one reported dead in the newspaper?
The newspaper posted a large-sized photograph.
In the picture, there was a burned-out car that was badly deformed with its wreckage scattering, from which it was easy to tell that it was red-colored.
Adjacent to the picture, there was one picture of Lu Rongshen who was in great grief while holding a black-white portrait of her in his hand.
What was that! What's going on here?!
Lin Bingqing was completely shocked, wondering why Lu Rongshen claimed she is dead while she is alive right now.
