Chapter 1047 Fast and Furious


    Xu Lei and the others were ready to leave Jiangdong and seek shelter in Yanjing.


    In the distant darkness, a green SUV suddenly sped towards them.


    The low rumble of its engines sounded like the growl of a wild beast as it reverberated in the air.


    The vehicle''s headlights cast two strong beams of yellow light into the night like two long shes from


    a sharp de. The SUV roared loudly as it charged towards the Ye family''s mansion.


    The Ye family jumped at the sight of the vehicle. The blood from their faces drained instantly.


    Ye Tian asked Xu Lei fearfully, "Miss Xu, is that...is that one of your men?"


    She shook her head. "No. It looks like a military vehicle, so that must be Xur Shao-Hua''s men."


    The Xur family was one of the most powerful families in Yanjing. Xu Lei knew them well.


    The Xur family had risen to its current power because of their military clout.


    They were the ones who called the shots in the military.


    The marriage between two generals in that family had continued to be the talk of the Chinese military


    world.


    That had been why Xu Lei had been so sure that these were Xur Shao-Hua''s people as soon as she


    spotted the military vehicle.


    "What? Xur Shao-Hua''s men? Don''t they know when to stop? They''re not going to stop until they kill


    us, are they?" The Ye family cursed out loud when they heard what Xu Lei had said.


    "Dad, this isn''t the time for that. Let''s hurry up and leave before they catch up," said Ye Jian fearfully.


    He had just escaped the jaws of death. He wasn''t in a hurry to court death so soon.


    Wei Wu-Ya and his men had terrified him.


    Terror had red up inside him when he had learned that Fenghua Group had sent more men after


    them.


    The strange young woman had already left. They weren''t going to survive this time if they were to end


    up in Lu Ming-Feng and Xur Shao-Hua''s hands.


    Xu Lei shared Ye Jian''s views as well. They should leave right now.


    It would be unwise to confront Xur Shao-Hua and his men.


    Xu Lei had been in a hurry when she had made her way to the Ye family''s mansion. She hadn''t brought


    many men with her.


    The odds weren''t going to be in her favor if a fight broke out.


    The furious roar of engines erupted in the night.


    Upon Xu Lei''s orders, her men started the engines of their cars. Numerous vehicles sped into the night.


    "Dad, they''re catching up with us! We have to go faster!” yelled Ye Jian. The sight of the approaching


    SUV sent spikes of terror coursing through his blood.


    They had been right. The men in the SUV were here for the Ye family.


    The SUV''s engine growled loudly like a beast as the vehicle pursued Xu Lei and the Ye family


    relentlessly.ConTEent bel0ngs to N?v(e)lD/rama(.)Org .


    "Everyone, hold on to your seatbelts!"


    Cornered, Ye Ya threw caution to the wind. mming his feet into the elerator, he pushed the car


    past the speed limit and sent the car engines roaring.


    The eleration took fewer than eight seconds and the force of it thrusted the vehicle''s passengers


    deep into their seats.


    Ye Ya had never driven a car at such speeds before.


    But he had no choice.


    They were going to be killed if they were caught. This wasn''t the time to worry about safe driving.


    He was going to make this car fly.


    Ye Ya''s Mercedes-Benz E300L sped past Xu Lei like a gust of wind.


    The Ye family were driving five cars as they made their way out of Jiangdong.


    In one car was Ye Ya''s family, another Ye Tian''s family and the third Ye Xi-Lan''s family. Ye Xi-Mei and


    the old patriarch of the Ye family sat in the fourth car that was being driven by one of Xu Lei''s men.


    Xu Lei was alone in thest car.


    Xu Lei had spotted the SUV approaching them steadily.


    It was catching up.


    She clenched her jaw, then slowed down suddenly. Her car was now tailing the others.


    Ye Xi-Mei was rmed when she saw Xu Lei''s car fall behind. She called the young woman


    immediately. "Lei, why did you slow down? Is there something wrong with your car?"


    "Don''t worry about me. Go ahead without me," said Xu Lei before hanging up.


    She continued to slow down. The distance between her car and the SUV narrowed rapidly as thetter


    continued to charge ahead at high speed.


    Right before the SUV could overtake her vehicle, Xu Lei spun her steering wheel sharply to one side


    and drove her car right into the SUV''s path.


    She was going to stop the SUV with her car. The pursuit was going to end here.


    The two vehicles became locked in a prolonged and intense chase.


    Xu Lei could hear the SUV''s engine growling in her ear.


    ''You want to harm Fan''s family? You''ll have to get past me first!"


    Xu Lei released a sigh of relief as the SUV got stuck behind her car.


    Ye Fan''s mother and her family must be long gone by now.


    Xu Lei''s car sped into the night.


    The SUV tried to overtake her but Xu Lei wasn''t going to let Xur Shao-Hua''s men pass and thwarted


    every attempt that they made.


    With her attention focused on the SUV tailing her, she did not notice the bend in the road ahead of her.


    "Watch out!" Someone''s voice rang outside the car suddenly.


    But the windows to Xu Lei''s car were up. There was no way she could have heard that.


    She appeared to have noticed the bend in the road then.


    rmed, she smashed her foot into the brake and made a sharp swerve to the left.


    It was toote.


    The force of the sudden swerve sent the BMW spinning out of the road.


    The car flipped a few times before finallynding with a deafening crash.


    "This stupid girl!"


    Ye Fan was furious.


    He had been yelling at Xu Lei to stop the car.


    After that, he tried to catch up with Xu Lei.


    But Xu Lei had mistaken him an enemy trying to overtake her car.


    A series of misunderstandings and unfortunate coincidences had led them to where they were now.


    Ye Fan dashed towards Xu Lei''s car after it hadnded.


    The BMV had flipped onto its roof and wasying in the middle of a field.


    The yellow headlights of the car flickered ceaselessly while its windscreen wipers moved mechanically


    across the BMW''s front window. Gasoline leaked into the soil all around the vehicle. Co?tent of

    "Lei! Lei!" Ye Fan yanked the door open frantically.


    The sight sent worry spiking through Ye Fan.


    He lifted Xu Lei out of the car hastily.


    Ye Fan released a sigh of relief.


    "Lei, wake up. Come on, wake up,” said Ye Fan softly as he held Xu Lei in his arms.


    The young woman came to shortly. She thought she was hallucinating when she opened her eyes and


    saw Ye Fan.


    She blinked profusely, as if she were trying to make sure that she wasn''t seeing things.


    Ye Fanughed and tapped her lightly on the tip of her nose.


    "You silly girl, stop staring. It''s me. I''m not dead. I''vee back alive.”
