176 Rainy Days To Fall (2/2)

Could he see her pale smooth skin turns to burnt flesh? Could he see her chipping mouth quietened for eternity? Once he sees her, she would be dead to him and all her memories would die with her.

Where did he go wrong? Wasn't he giving her everything? Didn't he try to protect her? How did they end up like that?

But why did he care? She wasn't even his real fiance! But...but she is what he wanted!

Wa...was he too late to realize that?

He sat in the car, not daring to move. He heard the door slamming and knew Jiang Cheng had gotten out. But how could he? How could he go there to see his Raven perished into ash?

Why didn't she try to tell him? He would have been engaged for days, months but he would never throw her to the curb! He would eventually bend the universe for her! Why didn't she?

Di..Did she not even trust him that much? He trusted her.

She is a liar, traitor and murderer, a thorough criminal. A sinner. But she was his sinner! His twin soul, soulmate!

Either she liked it or not the day she tattoed her name on his body when they first met, she was his. And fate just brought her back to him for a reason when he had been looking for her for years now.

He didn't give up on her then, he wasn't giving up now.

Yu Wang and Ji Zhou were standing by the door of his car waiting for him to come out. No one said a word. There was nothing left to say.

He took a deep breath. No, he would fight for her, he wouldn't shut down. It was by far not an accident. His raven would be avenged... Whoever did this would regret the day he laid his filthy eyes on his raven!

She wasn't leaving him, not now, not ever! He would fight the heavens if it was worth it!

He wiped the wetness from his eyes. He didn't know when he cried last. Hell, he didn't even shed a tear on his father funeral!

He fisted his hands and looked ahead with sharp eyes. He would avenge his beloved then mourn his loss.

He got out of the car and slammed the door shut and walked straight ahead. Ji Zhou and Yu Wang followed him.

His heart was hammering hard. Any moment she could come in front of him and slay his heart. He had survived many wars but her defeated eyes weren't something he would.

She said she would wait for him forever and that was when he promised he would always return to her. No matter where she goes...

Ji Zhou assessed his Master cold and stoic expression. A storm was brewing. The girl was going to take the world down with her.

With sharp eyes, Li Yuan looked at the remains of the disaster. There was a car horizontally laid on the road with a bike broken laid flat on a distance with blood around it.

A dead wolf was on their left. It wasn't hard to place two and two together.

The wolf was freshly dead with a bullet wound, which it cleared that it was killed to throw on the rider to distract and that is when the car would have come out of nowhere.

After the diversion, the driver would have clashed with the SUV. It would have caused fatal damage By how far the bike had flown, it was a bad hit and the driver must be driving in an insane speed.

It was too precisely well-planed to be a coincidence. Someone knew she was coming here so they preplanned it. Someone she trusted...someone who was an accomplice...

Ji Zhou took that opportunity to update, ”Reportedly, there was a new Harley stolen yesterday in our neighbourhood by the midnight. The model and nameplate matches.” He pointed at the busted bike there. He didn't dare mention her at once.

The bike was a little monster. He didn't have any idea she could drive a thing like that. But then again he had no idea about her at all.

He saw no recognition of his words on Li Yuan face who was looking at the incidental vehicles with sharp piercing eyes, but continued none the less, ”The tracker path and the truck path was traced materially and it was a juncture where they may meet and then there are tracks in the forest that trails on the abandoned road.”

”It was a trap. In the forest, there were footsteps that weren't older than a day or two. After the incident, the fire must be lit to remove traces or simply used to direct attention. The fire has nothing to do with the vehicles.”
