Yan Zhen was caught off guard when his neck was suddenly tightened.

A strong feeling of suffocation washed over her, and she almost lost control of the steering wheel, causing the car to veer to the side.

She quickly calmed down, not fighting back against Shen Que, nor trying to pull on the belt around her neck to buy herself a chance to catch her breath. Instead, she tried her best to straighten the steering wheel and subconsciously slowed down.

Separated by a fence, the moat lies to the right of the driveway, posing a constant risk of a car accident.

Shen Que, however, did not let go as if he were crazy, and the force with which he held her only tightened.

"Go to hell! Jiang Yunong, you should just die!!"

"Who the hell do you think you are, daring to threaten me?!"

"If I don't kill you today, I'm not a Shen!!"

Huang Guilan, sitting in the back seat, was terrified and rushed over to grab Shen Que, shouting, "Son, are you crazy? Let go!"

Shen Que kicked her away, his eyes contorted with rage: "I must kill her today!"

"She's driving! If the car overturns, we'll all die!"

Shen Que couldn't hear anything; his mind was filled with only one thought.

He's going to kill this woman!!!

Today!!

Right now!!

Due to lack of oxygen, Yan Zhen's face quickly turned blue.

She glanced at Shen Que in the rearview mirror. His facial muscles were twisted and ferocious, his eyes were bloodshot, and he was blinded by rage.

If we don't take some measures to save ourselves, we might really be strangled to death here today.

Yan Zhen quickly glanced around, her gaze landing on the moat, and a smile played on her lips.

When it comes to risking her life, she's never been afraid of anyone.

Since we're going to die anyway, let's take someone down with us.

Recruiting one person breaks even, recruiting two guarantees a profit!

Thinking of this, she jerked the steering wheel and stepped on the gas, causing the car to veer sharply to the right and crash through the guardrail.

Amid Huang Guilan's terrified screams, the car was lifted into the air and plunged into the moat.

Shen Que wasn't wearing a seatbelt. The moment the car took off, he was thrown violently by the inertia, his head hitting the roof, and he saw stars.

He didn't know how much time had passed when a sharp pain in his wrist woke him up.

When he regained consciousness, the water that had flooded the car had already reached his chest. Shen Li immediately straightened his body, and because of this movement, a dull pain came from his abdomen. He immediately gasped for breath.

Huang Guilan, who was standing next to him, had already lost consciousness, and Jiang Yunong, who was in the driver's seat, was also motionless.

The water level continued to rise, and all Shen Que could hear was the sound of rushing water. Belatedly, he became frightened and quickly nudged Huang Guilan, "Mom! Wake up! Wake up!"

Huang Guilan woke up groggily, and upon seeing the situation, her face turned deathly pale. She instinctively grabbed Shen Que's arm: "Son, what do we do..."

Shen Que dared not delay. He endured the excruciating pain and swam to the storage compartment in the front passenger seat. He took out a safety hammer from it and did not forget to glance at Jiang Yunong in the driver's seat.

Seeing that her forehead was covered in blood and she was unconscious with her eyes closed, he felt a sense of satisfaction at his successful revenge.

You despicable woman, you deserve it!

Shen Que smashed the back window of the car with a safety hammer in a few quick blows and pushed Huang Guilan out first.

At this moment, the river water had just submerged the entire carriage. He held his breath and prepared to swim out, when suddenly something grabbed his hind leg.

Shen Que turned his head and saw that Jiang Yunong had woken up at some point and was now grabbing his leg, preventing him from leaving.

Visibility was poor in the water, and her long hair floated like seaweed in the surging water. A strange smile played on her lips. At first glance, she looked just like a female ghost who had died unjustly in an old Hong Kong movie.

Shen Que felt a chill run down his spine and immediately kicked her a few times.

But Jiang Yunong didn't let go even after being kicked. Instead, she tried to pull Shen Que, who had half his body sticking out of the car window, back into the car, which was completely flooded.

Shen Que, who had initially thought she was asking him for help, suddenly realized that this woman wanted to take him down with her!

The thought sent chills down his spine, and he began to tremble uncontrollably.

This woman is a complete madwoman!

Not only is she not afraid of death, she also wants to kill him!

Having lived for thirty years, Shen Que felt death was so close for the first time. In fear, he kicked and thrashed the person more than a dozen times.

Yan Zhen not only didn't let go, but instead hugged his waist tightly, like a demon trying to drag him into the abyss.

Shen Que was almost out of breath underwater. He gritted his teeth and decided to go all out. He broke off a piece of glass from the shattered car window, retreated back into the car, and suddenly stabbed it into Yan Zhen's eyes.

Yan Zhen saw Shen Que's furious little actions clearly. Seeing that she had achieved her goal, she decisively let go the moment he turned around to attack.

Seeing that he had successfully forced her back, Shen Que did not linger. He immediately climbed out of the car window, stepped onto the car which was almost submerged, and rushed out of the water in one breath, panting heavily, his chest almost bursting open.

Huang Guilan was anxiously waiting on the water. As soon as she saw Shen Que come up, she immediately swam over and grabbed him. The mother and son helped each other swim to the shore.

The commotion of the car plunging into the river attracted many onlookers, and Shen Que and Huang Guilan were helped ashore.

After all that commotion, the two were exhausted and collapsed on the ground, too weak to even get up.

A kind-hearted passerby, an older man, peered into the river and asked, "Young man, is anyone still in the car?"

Shen Que paused, not answering immediately, but instead exchanged a glance with Huang Guilan.

At that moment, the mother and son shared a tacit understanding.

Jiang Yunong hasn't come up yet; this is a good opportunity for her to "die unexpectedly."

Jiang Yunong was driving the car. Even if the police retrieved the surveillance footage from inside the car afterward, Shen Que could at most be considered to have caused death by negligence, not premeditated murder.

"Young man, I'm asking you a question. Is there anyone else in the car?" the passerby asked again.

Huang Guilan glanced at Shen Que and answered first, "No, it was just me and my son in the car."

As soon as she finished speaking, a loud splash came from where the car had sunk, drawing the attention of everyone on the shore.

Shen Li immediately looked up at the woman swimming up from the water. His throat tightened, and he could clearly hear his heartbeat getting heavier and faster.

The woman's long, wet hair was draped over her shoulders, and blood was gushing from the wound on her forehead, making her pale face look as if she had been dead for three days.

Even in her most disheveled state, she remained calm, with a strange smile playing on her lips.

With that face, she swam to the shallow water and walked step by step toward the shore.

An older man and two young girls quickly reached out to pull her up, not forgetting to turn around and scold Huang Guilan: "Auntie, didn't you say there was no one in the car? Isn't this girl yours?"

Huang Guilan: "..."

Once Yan Zhen reached the shore, a passerby recounted Huang Guilan's earlier denial that anyone else was in the car, and asked with concern, "Young lady, they're trying to kill you. Should we call the police for you?"

Yan Zhen looked down at Shen Que, and smiled slightly as she met his guilty and frightened gaze.

"No, I believe they didn't do it on purpose, right? Honey, Mom."
