It was already ten o'clock in the evening and the streets were still bright with neon lights. Terence forced himself not to drink and he also helped Vivian for the wine.
When they arrived at the parking lot, Terence opened the door and was about to get on the car. However, Vivian rushed to him excitedly. She clung to Terence and said in a spoiled manner, "Can I drive tonight?"
"I didn't drink." Terence burst into laughter.
"What?" "I wanted to show you my driving skills," Vivian snorted disappointedly.
Terence fixed his eyes on her. He saw that she was so excited to play with them just now. Suddenly, he felt a little guilty because of his words. He asked, "Did you have fun tonight?"
"Yes, I'm happy!" Vivian nodded, "I haven't had dinner with my friends for a long time. I am so happy!"
"Why don't you hang out with your friends?"
"My friends are all bad guys who run around with cameras. It's impossible for us to get together," she explained, biting her lips.
Terence shook his head. He knew that Vivian loved to have fun, so he wanted her to be happy as long as she wanted. Then he took the car key, shook it in front of her and said, "It's okay for you to drive. Drive slowly."
"Wow! You're awesome! " At the same time, Vivian took the car keys from the table and got into the car. She shouted at Terence, "Get in the car! I'll drive you home this time. "
"Okay." Terence nodded with affection and went to the passenger seat.
"It's time to go!" Vivian started the engine and asked excitedly, "Have you been living in the residential compound for a long time? I'm sending you back to the family residence? Or there is a place for you to live? "
"I have my own place. By the way, will you drive me home and then you go home by yourself? I am worried about you. " Terence said, "Let's go to your house first."
"Do you have a place to live? Why don't you take me to have a look? " Vivian got an idea suddenly, "How about showing me around your house? Hmm? "
"Yes, when we have spare time in the future..."
"Come on! Please take me there today! "
"Today?" "It's not so convenient today." asked Terence in disbelief
"Why not? Did you hide a woman in your house? " Vivian blurted out and the car stopped at a traffic light.
"Haha..." Terence burst into laughter. "I can't even handle you alone. If I hide you one more, I'm afraid that I'll lose my life." After a pause, he continued, "I just thought that it would be too late today. You went to my house, and we are a man and a woman alone Well, it's not very convenient. "
"You are too evil." Vivian made a face and stuck her tongue out. Seeing the light turned green, she started the car.
"This place is actually very close to my own house, we will arrive in less than twenty minutes," replied Terence with a forced smile
"Really? Let's go to have a look. " As Vivian spoke, she turned the steering wheel. There was a car coming towards them before she could say anything else. The car suddenly opened the high beams and the harsh light made the dark road unclear.
On reflex, Terence closed his eyes and spat, "Is this man crazy? Why did he use the high beams? "
All of a sudden, Vivian closed her eyes and tightened her grip on the steering wheel. The next second, the background light of the rushing car was turned off again. Vivian heaved a sigh of relief. Rolling her eyes, she was about to say something to soothe the fear. But suddenly, she felt everything went black. Her heart thumped, and her face suddenly turned pale. She opened her eyes again and there was darkness in front of her...
"I... I can't see... Terence..." Vivian held the steering wheel so tightly that it was almost broken, and her legs were trembling to find the brake.
"What? !" Shouted Terence as he suddenly felt that the car was driven in the right direction. He turned his head and saw that Vivian's eyes widened, but her eyes were not focused.
Beep——
The oncoming cars all dodged and let out a quick whistling.
"Terence..." Vivian was about to cry, but she couldn't find the brake on her feet.
"Don't be afraid!" Terence screamed and stepped on the brake. "Bang!" the car stopped suddenly. At the same time, the truck that came from the car behind failed to escape, directly hit the corner of the car. The truck shook, and several iron plates in the truck flapped down.
Bang -- bang——
It was too late for them to dodge, so Terence unfastened the seat belt immediately and turned around to hold Vivian tightly in his arms.
Bang——
With another loud noise, a piece of iron plate was smashed into the front window of the car. The window glass was suddenly smashed, and the shards splashed on Vivian and Terence. Even the iron plate was smashed on Terence's lap.
Terence snorted and tightened his grip.
"Terence?! Are you okay? " Vivian felt a lump in her throat. When she blinked her eyes, her vision slowly came back. The first thing she saw was Terence's chin and the streaming blood on his face.
"Terence!"
Vivian didn't have time to think about it carefully. She cried bitterly.
