Chapter 482: Chapter 492 Fear
An unfamiliar man’s breath washed over her, and in the next moment, Shi Yi’s slender waist was tightly gripped by a strong hand. She looked up in shock at the man in front of her, only to see his face as cold as frost. He mercilessly pushed her away, and then took out a brown silk handkerchief to vigorously wipe his hands.
Feng Chengyu’s expression and actions conveyed a clear message—he was disgusted by her, no, he was extremely disgusted by her. Otherwise, he wouldn’t have done something so insulting.
A spark of anger flared up in Shi Yi’s heart. She momentarily forgot their situation and shouted at Feng Chengyu, "Hey, Mr. Feng, is there something dirty on me? Do you have to be so disgusted by me? You... Ah!"
Before Shi Yi could finish her words, the car was violently hit again by another vehicle beside them. This time, Feng Chengyu did not reach out to help her. As a result, Shi Yi’s head smashed against the window beside her, and soon she felt a large bump forming on her forehead.
Shi Yi clutched her injured forehead in pain, completely forgetting Feng Chengyu’s previous insulting actions. She turned her attention to the black SUV outside the car.
What kind of deep-seated hatred did this SUV have with Feng Chengyu to hit them so ruthlessly? Even if it had to be so ruthless, couldn’t they wait until she got out of the car before crashing into Feng Chengyu’s vehicle? Didn’t the man notice that Feng Chengyu had remained unmoved from start to finish?
Shi Yi’s heart was filled with resentment as she cursed the SUV driver a thousand times over in her mind. She didn’t expect that in the next moment, the SUV driver would be shot in the head.
Shi Yi screamed in terror, staring in disbelief at the scene before her. It took a long while for her to realize that this was not a movie, but something happening for real.
With a burst of gunfire, the SUV driver collapsed on the spot, and the black SUV instantly lost control, speeding straight toward the guardrail beside them. Then Shi Yi heard the deafening sound of a crash from behind the car.
Through the rearview mirror, she saw that the car had collided with the roadside guardrail and was severely damaged, seemingly totaled.
Shi Yi withdrew her gaze and stared steadfastly at the driver in the front, mumbling, "You’ve killed someone!"
Seeing that the driver in the front did not respond for a long time, Shi Yi turned her gaze to Feng Chengyu beside her and said in a deep voice, "You’ve killed someone!"
To her surprise, Feng Chengyu simply shot her a glance, his eyes as if looking at an idiot who had never seen the world. Obviously, he was accustomed to scenes like this.
While Feng Chengyu saw Shi Yi as an idiot, to Shi Yi, this man was no different from a demon. She looked at him as if staring at a monster, her lips trembling slightly.
"Mr. Feng, that was a human life!"
Hearing this, the man’s lips curved into a mocking smile. "A human life?"
Although the man’s words were ambiguous, Shi Yi could hear his meaning from his tone—in this man’s eyes, humans were no different from cats and dogs.
Shi Yi tightened her fingers, staring angrily at the cold and heartless man in front of her. But in the next moment, the hatred in her eyes was scattered by the deafening gunfire.
In an instant, the black SUV that had flanked them on the left also suddenly lost control. Shi Yi did not see if the driver inside had been shot in the head, but when she saw the black SUV lose control and flip over, she could more or less guess the fate of the SUV driver. It was probably not much better than the one who had been shot in the head.
The color drained from Shi Yi’s face layer by layer, while Feng Chengyu beside her remained calm and composed, his face showing not the slightest ripple, as if everything that had just happened had nothing to do with him and he was just a spectator.
The three or four SUVs that had been tailing them had now been reduced to two, with one having already been destroyed. Realizing that it was now outmatched, the SUV tailing them didn’t dare to persist in chasing.
Seeing this, the driver in the front spoke up, "Boss, do you need to take care of the SUV behind us as well?"
The man glanced faintly at the escaping SUV, his thin lips curving into a dangerous smile, "No need."
After all, they needed to leave someone alive to report back. Otherwise, how would those who coveted his life learn their lesson?
For a moment, the entire car became quiet, just as it was when they had set off from the Hilton Hotel. However, Shi Yi’s heart couldn’t calm down for a long time.
She had just experienced a lopsided gunfight and witnessed a human life vanish right before her eyes. Despite having been through many storms in the United States, she still couldn’t completely digest everything that had just happened.
Even now, her fingers couldn’t help but tremble slightly.
She glanced coldly at the man beside her, who had killed without blinking, and angrily demanded, "Stop the car!"
Feng Chengyu had been resting with his eyes closed, with no intention of responding to her.
"I said stop the car!" Shi Yi enunciated each word clearly.
The man frowned, slowly opened his eyes, and his thin lips parted, "Miss Shi, this is a highway."
"That’s my problem. Just tell your driver to stop the car."
Displeasure flashed across the man’s eyes. "Being too stubborn is not always a good thing for a woman."
"I just don’t want to stay with a murderer."
"A murderer?" The man suddenly narrowed his eyes dangerously and grabbed Shi Yi’s collar, easily pulling her toward him. "If my driver hadn’t acted just now, Miss Shi, you’d be dead on the street by now."
The man’s words instantly left Shi Yi speechless. She blinked her eyes and suddenly pushed Feng Chengyu away, retorting, "That would be you and him lying dead in the street, not me. I have no quarrel with them, so naturally, nothing would happen to me."
"Really?" The man suddenly let out a cold laugh, "Miss Shi, do you think you could have walked away unscathed?"
"Why couldn’t I? Their target is you, not me."
"So naive. How can an egg remain intact when the nest is overturned?"
Shi Yi certainly understood this principle, but she still didn’t want to back down. She didn’t want to be brainwashed by this cold-hearted man.
In the end, Shi Yi still couldn’t get out of the car. Feng Chengyu, just like his name, was cold, domineering, and extremely controlling. Shi Yi had no doubt that if she insisted on getting out of the car, the next person to be shot in the head might be her.
So, she followed Feng Chengyu to the mountain villa where she had been reborn four years ago. However, even though she had been reborn here, her impression of this place was not good. The moment she stepped into the villa, her legs couldn’t help but weaken.
She had thought that the terrifying memories of four years ago had faded with time, but when she truly returned here, she found that the fear buried deep in her memory still existed.
She thought that most of her fear of Feng Chengyu came from this place, from that bloodthirsty German Shepherd.
