Su Qianwei was a smart b*tch. She knew it was impossible to bring a weapon in the protected area the Mansion was situated in so she must have stolen from the Li's.

How she did that was a bright question mark on an ink-tar paper.

Getting out of the back gate when the front gate was blasted wasn't tough. She didn't even need to use a weapon. It looked like the Li's security sure was confident about their defences that they went into a shock then frenzy.

She stole a Harley from her neighbours as a goodbye gift. After all, she had been their neighbour for almost four weeks now. Lei Xinyi smirked at the thought. Li Yuan can pay for it as a payment for the headache he had caused her for months.

Li Yuan. She will...miss him but that would probably be when she would be drunk on a cheap whiskey in a cold night and reminiscing.

She didn't look back, not even once. That just wasn't her. 

The typical reason, she liked him but she just loved herself more... Sounds cliche, but always get the job of convincing your heart for you. After all the people who are going to meat your flesh is not going to treasure your heart in a gla.s.s bottle!

If you leave, leave. Don't leave and wish you were there, no matter what your heart says, even if it slay your heart. 

What is the value of a heart in a material world? Nothing just like a sc.u.m.

You either leave or you don't. Don't leave and still stay there for the rest of your life. That was what you call material world thing.

Li Yuan was going to know about her in some days. The wedding would have sealed her fate and now she couldn't use him as her sanctuary anymore.

What she did was nasty and stingy and it's not like she is proud of it but what has to be done must be done!

When he was going to know her truth he was going to roast her in their dungeons to extract information. After all their family had old feuds and generations-old vendettas.

The Harley was brand new and was a renowned model, though she doesn't recall what it was. Her heart was beating loud. The night was shunned in a pin-drop-silence but her mind and heart were as loud as a drum.

She had nothing to return to so why was leaving bothering her. At once Li Yuan kissing her pa.s.sed by her brain.

She shook her head to get rid of the obnoxious thought. He would be the first to hand her to the gallows if he knew her.

She took out the bugged phone from her pocket and lit it up. She had eight minutes before they would catch up to her.

She needed to distract them. There was no way she could reach the port in eight-minute.

The bugged phone will do the job. 

She was thinking of dropping it in the pa.s.sing river but they will be able to see it on the map and tell it was a trick. Then her eyes landed on a load-truck that was running on the road ahead. 

Lei Xinyi smirked and laid on the heavy bike. She wasn't wearing a helmet and the rush of the wind was hurting her eyes but robbers can't be choosers! There wasn't a helmet to be found.

She accelerated the bike and covered the distance between the truck and her bike. When the truck was adjacent to her, she slowed. 

She took out the phone from her pocket and wished from G.o.d if she had done anything good in her life to let her find peace and calm in her this last escape.

This will be the last malicious thing she will do. She promised with her eyes closed.

It was one chance she will have if she failed to do it, she will die a gruesome death. If the phone fell down it would break alerting them or if it would bounce it would fall in the river.

Then they would catch her in a matter of minutes.

She bit her lip and held the handle with her left hand and threw the phone in the air with the right. A sigh of relief left her lips when it landed on the top of the truck.

Now they will follow it and their concentration will divert and that is all she needed. The sneaky snitch Butler would have reported Li Yuan by now and would be crying to him like he was his Mama.

Lei Xinyi sneered at the thought of the annoying Butler. Snitch B*tch! He didn't leave a chance to disturb her mentally! She had to literally live on her toes because of him!

Having earned herself time Lei Xinyi turned her bike screeching it on the road then she lifted the front tires of her bike and accelerated.

The bike ran up the forest path leaving the road behind. She was familiar with the forest like the back of her hand. A memory was engraved in her head connected to it.

When she ran for the first time, it was the very forest she ran from, barefoot on her small feet with a ten-year-old innocent child and a.s.sa.s.sins chasing them.

Her eyes became misty at the thought of the boy and the times in the forest. She shook her head to get out of the old memory. It was history. She grew and got over it!

The rustling of leaves and whirling of wind was flushed by the speed she cut the wind with the bike. She crossed the forest on her bike in accelerated speed dodging trees and bushes.

When finally she saw a road in the end, she heaved a sigh of relief. The road was abandoned for being haunted. It had forest on both sides, it was creepy and it was heard that wild animals attacked people here.

So, it would be the last route they will expect her to choose and another efficiency was that it had a direct connection to the port. 

The s.h.i.+pment was leaving in 13 minutes and she still had enough time to reach there on time.

The road was empty without a soul and nor was it ever used so Lei Xinyi allowed the speed and put all her senses on the surrounding.

She wasn't scared of a ghost but there could always be scary humans walking around.

The bike was running fast when she saw something like an animal flying in her direction from the left side of the forest, her eyes widened and she accelerated the bike further to avoid it.

Just as she did that, a car came out of the right side of the forest horizontally on the road. 

She was running in a very fast speed and the car was half a meter away. She tried to take-over the bike and do a U-turn but it was too late.

She clashed and the car up-turned with her and her bike, she went past the car flying on the road.

It was a set-up!

She was whimpering and heaving in pain. All it took was seconds to take place but will stay engraved in the culprit and victim minds forever.

Her broken bones and the weight of the bike kept her in place. She heaved hard. the world was spinning. The wetness below her was exceeding. Her blood was bathing her goodbye.

The excruciating pain shot up in all her mortal body. That was the moment she realized how die-able and breakable she was.

The cold of the night was seeping in her. The wind was whistling in consolation or maybe in mock with nothing but void to mourn her.

People said all your life pa.s.sed from your eyes when you were in the dreadful pain before death but Lei Xinyi saw nothing, remembered nothing, nor was she numb. 

She just felt what she felt all her life...pain. Screams wrenching pain!

She had prayed to G.o.d for the first time. For peace and calm and it looked like he listens. The irony was, even he thinks that the only way for her to reside in peace was to rest in peace...

"Lei Xinyi!" 

She heard a distantly familiar voice shout to her but she was far too gone to recognise. That was the moment when her world turned dark and her life bright.
