As the fierce wind rushed towards her and her hair was lifted high, Qin Ruojing finally noticed the speeding truck coming her way.
In the instant before death approached, she felt no fear, no regret. To be exact, her mind was blank, with no time to think.
Suddenly, she felt a heavy shove, and then she fell backward onto the ground. Next, her body felt a sudden weight, and a violent roar filled her ears.
With a few passersby watching nervously, the heavy truck with four front and eight rear wheels continued driving forward.
However, in their view, there was no scene of the young, beautiful woman being hit and killed; she seemed to have suddenly vanished into thin air.
Not until the truck had traveled a distance did the bystanders suddenly realize, without knowing when, that the young woman was already lying on the ground, with a man who seemed to appear out of nowhere lying atop her.
As the truck sped past, with the gale blowing, the man's clothes fluttered in wave-like ripples.
In humanity, after all, benevolence occupies a large proportion, and upon seeing this scene, several people on the road instinctively let out a sigh of relief.
Although they completely missed seeing when the man rushed over, they were fortunate that the woman's life was saved, and the man on top of her seemed unharmed as well.
These two were naturally Qin Ruojing, who was timely pushed down, and Chu Ge, who rushed over at the critical moment.
However, just as that sigh of relief was only half complete, the hearts of the passersby tensed up again.
Because another vehicle was already following closely. This was not a high-chassis truck with wide tire gaps, but a sedan trailing right after. If this car just drove over, the two people would surely die!
The phrase "you escaped one danger only to face another" clearly described the current situation.
"Danger! Another car! Get out of the way!"
A kind passerby shouted anxiously, though he felt even as he shouted that it was a futile cry. Just the previous scene was already miraculous, so at this moment, how could these two possibly escape this disaster again?
Due to the previous truck blocking the view, only now did the driver inside the sedan see the two bodies tightly squeezed together on the ground.
Just like the previous truck driver, his face immediately turned pale with fright, an "ah" slipped from his mouth, his pupils contracted rapidly, and his heart seemed to leap into his throat, rendering him utterly at a loss, instinctively wanting to brake, but in his panic, hit the accelerator instead.
It's over, it's over, it's really over!
Watching the sedan not stop but instead accelerate suddenly, this thought echoed simultaneously in the minds of several passersby.
A few other bystanders instinctively closed their eyes, but suddenly a high-decibel shout reached their ears.
"Shit!"
The one who shouted was the only onlooker who didn't close his eyes. It wasn't that he was braver, but his reaction was half a beat slower. Before he could close his eyes, he witnessed a scene perhaps unforgettable for a lifetime.
In his sight, the man, after miraculously protecting the woman from the truck, didn't hesitate in the slightest and picked the woman up.
Then, as if he had eyes on his back, he suddenly leapt up, narrowly avoiding the sedan just before it hit, planting a foot on the car's roof.
Seeing this, the passerby could hardly believe his eyes!
What kind of extraordinary skills does one need to jump so quickly and so high while holding someone like this?
What kind of keen intuition does one need to judge the distance between him and the car behind him?
What kind of balanced ability does one need to stay on top of a vehicle without being thrown off?
And, unbelievably, this wasn't even the end!
Then, without any pause, the man made yet another leap.
He jumped sideways over another car, holding the woman tightly with his left hand, and clutching the rearview mirror of a slowing bus with his right hand, swinging like Tarzan in the movies. He 'flew' a significant distance, before landing back steadily on the sidewalk!
"Am I... Am I dreaming? Could they be filming a movie here?"
Looking at the man and woman, who were miraculously unscathed, the onlooker instinctively gulped and mumbled, casting his gaze around. However, how could there be any cameras or crew in sight?
"Incredible... Absolutely incredible!"
Looking around, the passerby again turned their gaze toward the direction of Chu Ge and Qin Ruojing, their face full of excitement and disbelief, sincerely shouting.
Those who had closed their eyes earlier heard this sound and also opened their eyes again, following the excited gaze of the passerby, they all looked toward where Chu Ge was.
And with that look, everyone was stunned, as if they had been petrified on the spot.
No one could understand how, under those circumstances, these two survived.
This... how could this be possible?
Under the gaze of numerous strange eyes, Chu Ge breathed a long sigh of relief, looked down at Qin Ruojing, who was pale in his arms, and grinned, "Chairman, have you calmed down a bit?"
Facing Chu Ge's gaze, Qin Ruojing was stunned for a good three to four seconds before suddenly snapping back to reality, her lips moving slightly twice before she managed to utter a sound.
"You... you... have you lost your mind? Are you crazy?"
Chu Ge shook his head helplessly, "Chairman, it seems that the one who can spoil the scene isn't just me. Your skills in this area seem even higher than mine, huh? Normally, you should at least say thank you now, right?"
Gazing at that still carefree face, Qin Ruojing's feelings were indescribably complex at this moment. Compared to the relief and fear after a narrow escape, she felt more touched and... deeply puzzled.
She couldn't understand why she was so angry with Chu Ge.
Nor could she understand why Chu Ge would, for her, be willing to risk his life to snatch her back from the hands of death.
Was it worth it?
On one side, Qin Ruojing was lost in thought, while on the other, the once smooth road was now plunged into complete chaos due to the sudden occurrence.
The truck that almost hit Qin Ruojing was the first to stop, its long rear swinging to one side, taking up two-thirds of the road.
The middle-aged driver got out, his face pale, repeatedly confirming that he wasn't seeing things, and that the woman was indeed alive and well before he mechanically walked over with his mind in turmoil.
As he walked, he made up his mind. First, he made a phone call, then put on an angry expression.
Next came the car following closely behind the truck. The driver finally managed to stop in time, halting before hitting the truck, blocking the remaining third of the road.
With these two vehicles stopped, those behind them couldn't get through. Some cursed, some were indifferent, others watched the commotion, but all stopped one after another with drivers also stepping out of their cars.
Fortunately, although the road was chaotic, there were no casualties.
Not only the drivers of these vehicles but also pedestrians who had just witnessed that dangerous scene were also heading toward Chu Ge.
After all, among them, except for one person, no one else could figure out how Qin Ruojing and Chu Ge escaped unscathed, all filled with shock and astonishment, wanting to find out what was really going on.
"Bro, you were simply awesome just now, how... how did you do it?" The passerby who witnessed the entire event was the first to approach, asking excitedly.
"What exactly happened just now?" Another passerby asked, looking perplexed.
"If you've finished, hurry up and wrap it up. We have lots of cars waiting, don't waste everyone's time!" a driver eager to leave said, frowning.
In short, the scene was chaotic, with everyone talking at once, each voicing their own opinions.
"Are you blind? Can't you see my big truck? Are you in such a rush to reincarnate?"
It was then that the truck driver who almost hit Qin Ruojing also came over. Although he knew it was his fault, fearing being extorted, he vehemently denied responsibility and angrily accused Qin Ruojing first.
Looking at the angry face of the truck driver, Qin Ruojing's elegant brows furrowed tightly, and her already poor complexion turned even worse.
She had almost been run over, which was enough to terrify her, and she really hadn't expected that after getting out of the truck, the driver wouldn't offer a single word of apology, instead launching into an angry tirade against her.
Standing to the side, Chu Ge couldn't help but frown, "What kind of attitude is that? Don't you realize you almost hit someone?"
The truck driver glanced at Chu Ge, glaring, "What kind of attitude? That's exactly how I'm talking. Don't think I can't see through your little scheme. You just want to frame me, huh? One plays the victim while the other plays the hero. I'm telling you, don't think you can trick me with claims of headaches or backaches, trying to extort some money. Not a chance!"
Initially, even though the truck driver nearly hit Qin Ruojing, Chu Ge really didn't want to argue with him, just wanting to leave as soon as possible. But seeing him behave so unreasonably, he felt truly disgusted and wasn't in a hurry to leave anymore.
Since the driver had already escalated the situation this far, Chu Ge indeed felt the need to have a good talk with him.
