It was after this she realised it wasn't her imagination and that someone had purposely messed up with her car.
"What the heck? Who on earth messed up with my car?" Yang Zi shouted furiously, as she stayed focused to avoid bumping into other cars at her front. With the speed the car was driving per second, she knew that inevitably, other road users will get hurt.
Just then, she noticed three motorcycles that seemed to drive at the same speed as her car. To confirm whether they were tailing her, she stylishly changed to the right lane.
"It looks like I am in serious trouble today," Yang Zi thought, trying as much as possible not to collide with other cars. With the speed of the car increasing drastically, she could not stop other cars from colliding with each other.
As she drove past the traffic light which showed stop, through the side mirror Yang Zi could see cars colliding with each other. The impact was so tremendous. She was certain that many people would get seriously hurt from the impact of the massive collision.
"Let me call Shiyi, he might have a way to help me stop the car," Yang Zi said, as she struggled with keeping herself safe and calling Shiyi. Her struggle wasn't so successful because she bumped into over six cars because of this.
"Hello big bro, please save me. I am in serious trouble," Yang Zi said breathlessly as her car violently bumped into a car. The crash jolted Shiyi to his feet.
"Hey Zi Er, what is going on there? Why does it sound like you just got into an accident?" Shiyi asked in a worried tone.
"Can you track the location of my car? I believe these guys riding on these motorcycles might have hacked it. To protect my life, I can't speak to you for long," Yang Zi said. The thought of dying when her engagement party was just three weeks away scared her. Shiyi quickly raced through the stairs to the 2nd floor.
"I had dropped by at our hideout since I missed our time here. Stay on the line while I check what might be the problem," Shiyi said, as he opened the door of a room, switched on the lights and then hurried inside.
"I am sure Zhao Liying must be responsible for this. If I ever survive through this, I promise to give her a taste of her own medicine. I will make her see death knocking right at her, just like she has done to me. It's a promise and I will make sure I keep it," Yang Zi said menacingly, as she battled to stay alive.
On reaching where his computers were, Shiyi hastily pulled off the nylon he had used to cover the computers. Within two minutes, he was already on his computer, typing madly.
"Shiyi, I want to call Feng but for me to do that I have to disconnect our call so I hope you are ok with this?" Yang Zi said, her heart racing erratically.
"I want to hear his soothing voice because this might be the last time I will hear his...,"
"Zi Er, what nonsense are you saying? You are gonna be just alright, so stop speaking like someone who is going to die soon," Shiyi scolded her. As he spoke, his eyes did not leave the screens for a split second.
"And if calling Yifeng will make you stop spouting nonsense, then do it. I will call you after your call with him ends," Shiyi said. As he typed on the computer, his heart was throbbing rapidly. With the woman he loved in danger, he could not stay calm at all.
"Ok, thank you," Yang Zi said, as she stretched her right hand to end the call while controlling the steering with the other hand.
"F*ck!" Yang Zi cursed loudly when she realised a truck approaching her at top speed.
That damn lady has set up so many traps to have me killed today but, I will tell her I am not that easy to kill.
Yang Zi thought, as she quickly manoeuvred her car to avoid getting hit by the truck.
To avoid colliding with the truck, she crashed into other cars. She panted heavily after the struggle was over.
"For doing this to me, I swear I am gonna repay the favour but in five-folds," Yang Zi said sternly, as she quickly dialled Yifeng's line.
"Zi Er, I hear screeching sounds of tyres, what the heck is going on there?" Yifeng asked in a worried tone. Su Jin sitting beside him became alarmed when he heard Yifeng's worried voice.
"Feng, I... I...," Yang Zi stammered, not knowing how to relay everything to Yifeng.
"Why are you stuttering? Is something wrong?" Yifeng asked.
"My car has been hacked," Yang Zi blurted out.
"Someone hacked into your car? What do you mean?" Yifeng asked the obvious question.
"Apart from the steering, nothing else in my car is working. It has been like this for over fifteen minutes now. I have been racing the entire city in this manner. I would have been long dead if not because I was a former racer. That is to say that you are so lucky to be speaking with your woman right now," Yang Zi said, trying to sound funny under such a tense atmosphere.
"What? And how could you make a joke about this when your life is at stake?" Yifeng said, as he quickly signalled the driver to pull over in a suitable spot.
"Crying will make you worried and also make me look weak and I don't like it so, I can't cry even though I want to," Yang Zi said, trying to sound indifferent about her current dilemma.
"It's ok to cry, Zi Er. You don't have to always act strong in front of me...,"
"Feng, since I want to see you alive the next time we meet, I can't talk with you for a long time," Yang Zi replied.
"I called to hear your sweet masculine voice and now that I have heard it, I am happy. I have to disconnect the....,"
"Where are you at the moment?" Yifeng asked worriedly.
"My location changes every five minutes so I can't give you an accurate reply..."
"Ok, did you wear the sapphire necklace I gave you?" Yifeng asked anxiously.
"Yes, I particularly wore it to brag about it to mum and dad," Yang Zi replied, her focus on the street.
"That is great, try as much as possible not to get hurt because I am coming for you," Yifeng said, as he quickly signalled Su Jin to help him with his IPad.
"I will try but I am not promising you anything," Yang Zi said, as she quickly disconnected Yifeng's call and answered Shiyi's incoming call.
"Zi Er, I have analysed the problem by watching everything here and I can see that your car slows down whenever there is a huge gap between your car and those motorcycle dudes so I believe that for you to control your car, you need to cut them off your tail," Shiyi explained.
"Can you do it?" Shiyi asked nervously.
"I just need to cut through other cars. I know with them following me closely it won't be easy but, I can try it," Yang Zi said, as she positioned herself well on the driver's seat.
"I believe in your capability Zi Er. Go get it, I am rooting for you here," Shiyi said, trying so hard to mask his fear.
"I love you so much Shiyi. Being your best friend in this lifetime is one of the best thing that has ever happened to me. You are the best friend and brother I could have ever wished for, you know that right?" Yang Zi asked, as she quickly did like Shiyi had advised her to do.
"I know you do so you must stay alive, Ok. I will call Shui Shui and tell her what is going on here," Shiyi said, not disconnecting the call.
Yang Zi focused all her attention on cutting the motorcycle guys off her tail.
She smiled devilishly when she saw one motorcycle getting crushed by another car.
For the next ten minutes, Yang Zi raced recklessly across the entire city. She could finally wind down the glasses of her car after so much racing.
"Zi Er, Zi Er...," Shiyi shouted in horror like he just realised something.
"What? Why do you sound so terrified?" Yang Zi asked, her breathing sounding irregular.
"There happens to be a cliff at the end of that...,"
"What!" Yang Zi exclaimed in shock.
"It's a dead-end Zi Er. There is going to be a huge trouble if you can't stop the car before you get to the cliff," Shiyi now standing said, running his entire fingers through his already messy hair. At first glance, one could tell how helpless he was.
"Hahaha..," Yang Zi laughed maniacally to the amazement of the dejected Shiyi.
"I have fought so many powerful people in my life, and yet this is how I am gonna die. It's just ridiculous that I am going to die in the hands of the daughter of the man and woman who ruined my mum's happiness," Yang Zi said, in a hurtful voice.
