Mr. CEO Wants to Renew Our Contract-Chapter 734: Deeply Rooted Love (179)

"Although that’s an option, Lili, I’m afraid if my dad sees you, he might want to kill you too."

Gu Lili thought about it, and indeed, Mr. Gu hated her even more.

"Then I should be extra careful when I go back later."

"Or we might as well stay at the old house until he’s caught. Staying in the company is really suffocating, let’s head back now."

The three of them took the elevator directly to the parking lot.

They headed toward their respective cars, and Gu Lili walked to her car only to find its front tire was flat.

Something had pierced it, so she called out to Gu Xichen, "Arrange someone to change my tire and drive the car to Qin Garden, you take me back first."

Gu Xichen immediately did as she requested.

Gu Lili sat in the back seat, Jingsheng sat in the passenger seat, and Gu Xichen drove.

The car left the underground parking lot of Gu Group and sped along the road.

There were quite a lot of vehicles on the street, stopping frequently.

Not to mention the traffic lights every few blocks.

When they stopped at the second traffic light, the thing they feared still happened.

A car from the opposite side suddenly started driving towards them at full speed, and the row of cars behind couldn’t back up, nor could Gu Xichen react in time to drive to the other side.

Gu Lili saw that the driver was none other than Mr. Gu.

Seeing that they were about to be hit by Mr. Gu, Gu Lili instinctively unbuckled her seatbelt, positioned herself in front of Xichen, and tightly hugged him.

This move was unexpected to both Xichen and herself.

But once done, there was no time to think too much.

Amid Jingsheng’s screams, the car was flipped over.

As it heavily crashed onto the ground, Gu Lili felt a warm flow quickly spreading from her head.

Bright red blood spread across her face.

"Lili!!!!!!!!" Gu Xichen’s voice trembled as he touched the wound on her head, tears bursting, "Why... who asked you to sacrifice yourself..."

"Because I don’t want you to die..." If you died, how could I face Master who raised me?

Her vision blurred, she could no longer speak, and the last image in her mind was Long Yubei smiling at her while holding a child.

She really wanted to say something like, "Today is truly damn spooky, shouldn’t have gone out."

But she no longer had the chance.

Gu Xichen was also badly injured, but not as severely as Gu Lili.

His hands continued to cover the wound on Gu Lili’s head, he cried incessantly with snot and tears.

Bystanders collectively flipped the car back upright, and as for Mr. Gu, he was already dead inside his car.

The police and ambulance arrived quickly, and by the time Gu Lili was carried out, she had already stopped breathing.

Gu Xichen held her hand, continuously calling her name.

At that moment, Long Yubei, who was in a meeting, suddenly felt an inexplicable sharp pain in his chest. He received a phone call the next moment.

Seeing the caller ID, he stepped out to answer, "Hello."

The next instant, his face, formerly calm, turned grim, he roared, "What did you say?!!!"

The people in the conference room didn’t know what had happened. When they heard a loud thud, the secretary went out to check and found Long Yubei collapsed on the ground, exclaiming, "President Long!"

...

Long Yubei’s first destination was the underworld; he frantically searched for Gu Lili’s soul. Upon learning she had not reported to the underworld, he instructed Xiao Bai to keep watch, then went to the site of the accident, and finding nothing, proceeded to the hospital.
