386 The Cliff

The injury was not serious. Soon, the bleeding ceased.

He Xun felt relieved and continued to call his wife’s name in her ear. At some point, Chen Wei’er showed signs of regaining consciousness. However, she also muttered something that struck He Xun like lightning. With a wistful smile, she asked about their divorce.

Suddenly, He Xun recalled the dream he had not long ago! In that dream, they were indeed divorced!

Before he could react, Chen Wei’er grabbed He Xun’s sleeve tightly. With her eyes wide open, she asked, “Where’s my child?”

‘Child…’ This word once again pierced He Xun’s heart. His throat bobbed up and down twice, but he could not say anything.

Chen Wei’er didn’t blink. She demanded an answer.

He Xun closed his eyes, and grief flashed across. His lips opened slightly. “We will have children.” Their children would come soon. They would exist.

The child Chen Wei’er was looking for belonged to her in the past.

Chen Wei’er was a little confused when she heard his words. She tried to repeat the words. “Our child?”

“Yes, our child. Wei’er, you’re tired. Take a rest.” He Xun’s voice began to choke. He covered his wife’s eyes, and Chen Wei’er really fell into a deep sleep.

He hugged Chen Wei’er tightly in his arms and walked into the reeds in a daze. His mind was filled with the words ‘divorce’ and ‘child’ that Chen Wei’er mentioned.

Was it all just a dream? Or was it real?

On the other side, Old Li and Brother Wei stared at the car that was speeding ahead.

Brother Wei frowned. “How far away is the cliff you mentioned? If we keep driving at this speed, will we have time to hit the brakes?”

Old Li looked around through the car window and firmly said, “It’s not far. It’ll only take a few more minutes!”

“Why didn’t they slow down at all then? Do these two really want to die?” Brother Wei was puzzled.

Old Li pondered for two seconds. “They must not know about the cliff. Otherwise, they wouldn’t have driven in this direction!”

“You’re right!” Brother Wei ignored the pain in his body and slapped his thigh. “They must have nowhere else to go!”

“That’s great!” Old Li heartily laughed. He could not wait for these two people to drive off the cliff without stopping in time. That way, he would not have to do anything. Anyway, these two people would definitely not leave this place alive!

Shi Tou, who had been silently frowning at the side, noticed something amiss.

“Village Chief, this is not right. Where are the rest? There are only two of them…”

This sentence woke Old Li up! That was right! Even if these two people died, the remaining women could still call the police, and the entire village would be finished! To escape this calamity, they should use these two people as hostages.

Thinking of this, Old Li’s expression turned solemn. “We have to stop them before they drive off the cliff!” He spoke in a deep voice.

Brother Wei didn’t think much of it. “It’s their own business if they fall to their deaths!”

“We can’t let them fall to their deaths!” As Old Li spoke, he kicked the back of the driver’s seat and shouted, “Drive faster!”

The driver was a little troubled. “Village Chief, we might rush off the cliff if we go any faster!”

Old Li’s face twisted into a ball. He didn’t know what to do.

“Why do you have to stop them?” Brother Wei was still confused.

“Maybe our daughter-in-law is in their car!” Old Li naturally wouldn’t tell the truth.

Brother Wei waved his hand casually. “I have checked it before. Only He Xun and Chen Wei’er are inside the car! ”

“That’s not necessarily true. Maybe they kept the children from our village in the trunk!” Old Li clenched his fists as if he was really worried for his fellow villagers. “Their family has only one heir for three generations. It’s fine if they lose their daughter-in-law, but what about their son?”

Brother Wei did not say anything. After all, his words did not count now. But just as the driver said, if they really accelerated, they would really not have time to hit the brakes. Their entire vehicle would be buried with these two people!

Brother Wei’s brows tightened.

According to the position that Old Li had mentioned, the car lights would be able to shine on them!

Old Li suddenly slammed the seat heavily—giving the people beside him a fright.

Even Brother Wei was shocked! “What’s wrong?”

“Damn it! These two people really decided to die! It’s impossible that they can’t see the cliff!” Old Li’s eyes were bloodshot as he stared ahead.

Brother Wei was also frightened by the expression on his face and did not dare to say anything else.
