Rebirth: Ghost Exorciser

Chapter 1418: Landslide, Earthquake (1)

Chi Shuyan didn’t know about Ruan Shenglin’s question. At that moment, she was driving seriously. From time to time, she would look at the cars behind them in the rearview mirror. Seeing that the other cars were following her, she heaved a sigh of relief. Just as she was about to grip the steering wheel with her right hand, someone suddenly grabbed her hand tightly.

Chi Shuyan didn’t expect Qi Zhenbai to suddenly make a move. Not to mention that it wasn’t good for them to be too close given their current relationship, there were still many people in the car, and she was still driving. Chi Shuyan was stunned.

Fortunately, she had good mental fortitude. When the man suddenly grabbed her hand, she wasn’t too scared, but just a little surprised. She glanced at the man, who was staring at her with a burning gaze. Chi Shuyan’s right eyelid twitched inexplicably. Apart from feeling surprised, she felt that something was off; it was mainly that the way this man looked at her was too revealing.

In the past, he had also especially liked to stare at her. His gaze would be burning hot, but his emotions were always restrained.

!!

Fortunately, the others in the backseat were busy with other things, so their attention wasn’t on the two.

Chi Shuyan quickly came back to her senses and struggled to free herself from the man’s grip. However, the more she struggled, the harder the man tightened his grip on her wrist, and there was the inadvertent sound of bones cracking.

The others in the backseat finally noticed their ‘intimate’ behavior.

Feng Yuanlin, Xiao Shan and Wu Haoming were all overjoyed and pretended that they were blinded by the sight. Wu Haoming couldn’t help but tease, “Sister-in-law, take it easy! Don’t be distracted by PDA with President Qi. Our lives are in your hands!”

After saying that, Wu Haoming quickly turned his head, and happened to look at Aunt Miao, who was quietly holding her little boy in the backseat. They had met this Aunt Miao once before, but her strange temperament made Wu Haoming keep his distance. Xiao Shan was the same, and didn’t dare talk to her.

Although Feng Yuanlin was puzzled as to why Aunt Miao was in their car, he wasn’t in a hurry to ask. At that moment, Feng Yuanlin’s mood improved a little, mainly because he saw that Shuyan and Zhenbai were getting closer. Perhaps the two of them would immediately reconcile after leaving the village.

Xiao Shan wasn’t good with his words, and could only echo Wu Haoming’s words even as he looked at the cute little guy in the backseat from time to time.

Chi Shuyan wasn’t embarrassed by everyone’s teasing. On the contrary, her face was a bit dark, because she realized that the man next to her was in a very bad mood, especially given the sound of her bones cracking just now. Not only didn’t the man let go of her, he was strangely stimulated, which alarmed her.

Chi Shuyan didn’t reply, but suddenly stepped on the brake.

Chi Shuyan’s sudden stop not only scared Feng Yuanlin and the others, but also the people in the cars behind her.

Feng Yuanlin and Wu Haoming hurriedly asked her what was wrong.

Wu Haoming even said that he would take over and drive.

Chi Shuyan immediately refused. “It’s fine, there’s no need!” When she withdrew her hand, she looked down at her numb and red right hand and said to Brother Feng and the others, “I’m really fine. My hand was grabbed earlier, so it was hard to drive.”

Before she could finish speaking, Ruan Shenglin and the others called Wu Haoming. It didn’t take much to figure out what they wanted to ask.

Chi Shuyan told Wu Haoming to tell them not to worry.

After Wu Haoming hurriedly replied and ended the call with Ruan Shenglin, Chi Shuyan’s eyes fell on the man next to her. She couldn’t see the man’s exact expression in the dark, and could only vaguely see his figure in the headlights. She asked, “Are you okay?”

After Chi Shuyan pulled her hand away, Qi Zhenbai’s scorching gaze remained on her face. Chi Shuyan sensed the man’s abnormal gaze on her face for a long time. She couldn’t say exactly what she was feeling, but her most vivid impression was that she was like prey under his claws.

Chi Shuyan still wanted to ask a few more questions, but the man suddenly looked out the car window and said indifferently, “I’m fine.” His face was very calm.

Chi Shuyan looked at the man next to her quietly for a few seconds, then quickly started the engine again. After she drove for quite some time, the man remained as calm as ever and didn’t show any abnormalities. Could it be that she had been thinking too much just now?

At that moment, Chi Shuyan didn’t have time to focus on their private affairs. After confirming that the man next to her was fine, she didn’t dwell on it anymore and drove in the direction pointed out by Aunt Miao.

An hour and 45 minutes later, Chi Shuyan was driving on a steep slope. She saw a familiar large stone stele in the distance, which was almost 500 meters away from them. As long as they passed this stone stele, they would be completely out of the village.

Chi Shuyan wasn’t the only one who saw it. In the backseat, Feng Yuanlin, Xiao Shan, Wu Haoming and Aunt Miao rolled down the windows and poked their heads out to look at the huge stone tablet. Even though Aunt Miao couldn’t clearly see what was on the stone stele, she knew that the words ‘Dashan Village’ were engraved on it. Finally, they could leave the village. Aunt Miao was so excited that she was incoherent. “Right… right, this is it. Pass this stone stele, we’ll be out of Dashan Village…”

Before an excited Aunt Miao could finish speaking, there was a loud bang, and the ground suddenly shook. The entire car almost flipped over. Chi Shuyan was quite skilled at driving, and barely managed to stabilize the car.

Feng Yuanlin suddenly saw a landslide in the rearview mirror. In the headlights, he clearly saw the mountains nearby begin to collapse. Huge rocks rolled down from all directions. Feng Yuanlin’s face changed drastically and he shouted in a shaky voice, “Shuyan, hurry… hurry… Drive faster. It looks like the nearby mountains are collapsing!”
