Chapter 49: Chapter 49: Ambushed

"Okay, I’ll drive you," Su Luo agreed, after all, it was he who had damaged her car.

As for the car...

Su Luo could only drive Rose’s car now.

"You get ready in the car, I’ll change my clothes and come right down," Lin Ruoxi said, before turning and heading upstairs again.

Su Luo didn’t suspect anything, and went straight to the car.

But a full half hour passed, and Lin Ruoxi still hadn’t come down.

"Weren’t you in a rush to get to the company?" Su Luo frowned, and quickly realized, perhaps Lin Ruoxi was deliberately messing with him.

"This female CEO is just as petty as any ordinary woman," Su Luo chuckled, but he didn’t blame Lin Ruoxi; the misunderstandings between them were somewhat numerous.

Thankfully, it was only a few minutes before Lin Ruoxi came downstairs.

When she appeared in Su Luo’s field of view, his eyes lit up instantly.

He saw her wearing a beige business suit and high heels, tall and shapely, cold yet competent, regaining the image Su Luo remembered of her as a company CEO.

"That’s the icy CEO I remember."

Su Luo smiled, his gaze following Lin Ruoxi, making no attempt to hide his admiration.

Of course, once Lin Ruoxi approached, Su Luo withdrew his gaze, to avoid bringing more trouble upon himself.

"Su Luo, it’s now two twenty in the afternoon, I need to be at the company by three o’clock at the latest, if I’m late..." Lin Ruoxi began, her voice slightly cold.

"If you’re late, what will happen?" Su Luo asked.

Lin Ruoxi replied, "If I’m late, I will fire you. At that point, not even Grandpa can say anything to me, it will be your own doing."

"This woman..." Su Luo pursed his lips, "Don’t worry, I will get you there before three."

He calculated that from Lin Mansion to Qingxi Group, without traffic, it would take about forty-five minutes. As long as he drove a bit faster and got there before three, it shouldn’t be a problem.

"Get in the car," Su Luo said.

He was also planning to take this opportunity to go to the company and resign.

Yes.

Until now, Su Luo was still an employee of Qingxi Group. Only, he was currently on annual leave!

As for why he was on leave?

It was naturally because he had strategically chosen a holiday period and then applied for annual leave, to give himself more than half a month off, originally planning a small honeymoon with Xu Yanran after their marriage.

But he never expected that his so-called marriage to Xu Yanran was a complete scam.

However, Su Luo no longer held any grudge against Xu Yanran and company.

If not for that night’s events, he might not have been struck by lightning, and without the lightning strike, he wouldn’t have gained the inheritance for cultivation. Of course, if he hadn’t been beaten and thrown out that night, he also wouldn’t have had that brief encounter with Aunt Shen.

"Su Luo, what are you thinking about? Why aren’t you driving?"

Seeing that Su Luo hadn’t started driving and seemed to be lost in thought, Lin Ruoxi gave him a stern look.

"Right away," he said.

Realizing he had been distracted, Su Luo shook his head and started the car, leaving Lin Mansion and heading towards Qingxi Group.

As it turned out, there was a bit of a traffic jam on the road.

"Su Luo, you are going to be late."

Lin Ruoxi glanced at the time, then at the distance on the navigation, and instead of getting anxious, she leaned back in the rear seat, the corners of her mouth curving into a faint smile.

"Is that so?" Su Luo smiled back.

"Isn’t it...?" Lin Ruoxi’s words were cut off when she suddenly felt a strong push against her back, causing her body to involuntarily lean backward.

This posture also undoubtedly emphasized the impressive curves of her chest.

Just that, at this moment, Su Luo had no interest in admiring anything through the rearview mirror.

"Miss Lin, hold on tight."

Su Luo smiled faintly, but his foot was already stomping on the accelerator. The Jeep Wrangler shot out as the traffic light turned green.

Su Luo had now reached the late stage of the Fourth Level of Qi Refinement, and his Divine Sense could extend within a fifteen-meter radius.

Therefore, by employing Divine Sense, Su Luo had a masterful awareness of the surrounding traffic conditions.

Although he had never engaged in high-speed driving before, with Divine Sense to assist him, Su Luo only needed to rely on his original driving skills to weave the Jeep Wrangler continuously through the traffic.

The Jeep Wrangler sped along at an extreme speed.

Overtaking constantly.

Lin Ruoxi sat in the back seat, looking out the window at the rapidly fleeing scenery, her delicate, cold cheeks turning slightly pale.

"Su..."

Just as she was about to ask Su Luo to slow down, he spoke up at the same moment, "Miss Lin, if you’re scared of going this fast, just tell me and I’ll slow down."

"Why would I be scared?" Lin Ruoxi’s initial words reached her lips, but she changed what she was about to say.

Through the rearview mirror, Su Luo saw that even Lin Ruoxi’s lips had turned a bit pale, yet she was still being stubborn, and he suddenly remembered an internet phrase:

Every part of the body is soft, except for the mouth!

It seemed quite apt for Lin Ruoxi at the moment.

Nonetheless, even though Lin Ruoxi stubbornly refused to admit it, Su Luo still gradually eased up on the speed, and although it remained fast, it was no longer giving Lin Ruoxi the sensation of her heart racing from speeding.

Lin Ruoxi relaxed a little, her gaze once again turning to Su Luo.

She didn’t speak.

But...

The gradual slowdown by Su Luo somewhat raised his standing in her heart.

However.

Just half a minute later, Su Luo suddenly accelerated again, and the vehicle burst forward, causing Lin Ruoxi’s body to collide lightly with the back of the seat due to the unstable force, and the sensation of weightlessness assaulted her again. Lin Ruoxi’s exquisite and cold cheeks turned pale once more, and she tensed up.

Very quickly.

The vehicle slowed down again.

After a while.

The vehicle abruptly sped up.

Then it slowed down again.

Lin Ruoxi couldn’t hold back anymore, "Su Luo, do you find it amusing to retaliate against me like this?"

Su Luo’s alternating bursts of acceleration and deceleration were making her feel terrible. If Su Luo were simply in a hurry, there would be no need for this.

Apart from deliberately tormenting her, Lin Ruoxi really couldn’t think of any other possibility.

Su Luo’s expression, however, was somewhat grave, "Miss Lin, I’m not retaliating against you, but testing whether those cars behind us are following..."

Su Luo hadn’t finished speaking when he suddenly cut himself off, "Hold the handrail tight, be careful!"

At the same time, Su Luo tapped the brake and sharply turned the steering wheel.

The tires screeched against the ground, emitting a sharp, piercing noise. The Jeep Wrangler that Su Luo was driving drifted with a tail flick and slid sideways.

Still, its body was struck by the large truck that had suddenly emerged.

The entire rear of the vehicle was caved in.

Su Luo had no time to think further, he stomped on the accelerator once more, and the car suddenly shot forward again.

"Assassins."

Su Luo uttered just three words by way of explanation to Lin Ruoxi.
