Wang Che did not waste a moment.
He rushed out of the office with his phone and car keys in his hand. His moves were smooth and sharp as he jumped into his vehicle and peeled out of the parking lot. When he got to the road going up the mountain, he became a racer once again.
And this time, he was racing against time.
He did not dare think about Shun's current status because he needed to focus on the road. He knew that losing focus would not help him get to his little bunny sooner. He had seen too many people in pieces due to a second of distraction on the race track.
Still, his mind kept replaying Shun's panicked voice and that loud crash.
He stepped hard on the accelerator, and the car flew up the mountain. Perhaps it was the bright moonlight playing a trick, but his dark eyes seemed to glow in the dark.
Before long, he saw something ahead of him. It did not take a moment for him to recognise Shun's car. After all, it was a gift from him.
The purple car looked a little childish because of its compact design. Shun complained constantly about the appearance of the vehicle, but he kept driving it, even when his brothers mocked it. He did not admit that he liked it, but Wang Che knew he did.
When he brought the car to Shun, he claimed that it was a new prototype from one of his friends in the auto manufacturing industry. The truth was that he had the car customised for Shun. Most of the design elements were based on some old drawings Wang Che saw in Shun's apartment.
The cartoon-like drawings were a little silly, but Wang Che kept them in his mind. On Shun's birthday, he had the car delivered to Mountain Ridge. The idiot did not even realise that the design was from his own mind.
He was truly hopeless.
Wang Che brought the car to a sudden stop. His heart was beating hard as he looked at the sight before his eyes. However, his mind remained quiet and clear. He stepped out of his car and ran to the wrecked car before him.
Fortunately, the purple car was quite safe in its structure. It was not like the other racing cars in Clarion Extreme. Of course, Wang Che would never have given Shun a vehicle that was not exceptionally safe. After all, he was not the best driver.
From what he could see at a glance, Shun collided with the road barrier because he failed to make the turn behind him smoothly. The barriers were quite stable and had a cushioning effect, so the car was not complexly wrecked, except for the front part.
Wang Che did not care about the car.
He looked to the front seat and found Shun with his head against the deployed airbag. His head was bleeding from somewhere. Wang Che could not tell the extent of the injuries.
He opened the door and disengaged the seat belt. As soon as he was free, Shun fell towards him. Wang Che caught him in his arms and started to lift him out of the car. Suddenly, Shun opened his eyes and looked directly at him.
"Che?" Shun asked.
"I am here." Wang Che said gently. "Don't worry. You are going to be okay."
"No, no." Shun struggled a bit as he was pulled out of the car. However, Wang Che did not let him go. He could see the confusion in those familiar eyes.
"It is alright. I am here." He repeated, hoping to soothe Shun.
"No. You don't understand." Shun shook his head before wincing in pain. "The car, it just stopped working. I could not turn the steering wheel, and the brakes refused to respond. I had to crash the car to stop it."
Wang Che frowned. If what Shun was saying was true, somebody probably compromised the hydraulic elements of the car. It was one of the easiest ways to kill someone with a car, especially a fast one. As long as hydraulic fluids leaked out, the car would eventually crash.
"We will deal with that later. We need to get you to a hospital." Wang Che pursed his lips. He planned to get to the bottom of the occurrence, but his priority was getting Shun immediate treatment.
He supported Shun and brought him to his vehicle. Shun remained a bit dazed as if he was trying to recall something. Once again, he winced in pain. Wang Che did not dare examine him in case he caused more harm than good. He simply locked the seatbelt.
When he was about to lock the door, Shun caught his arm in a tight grasp.
"I think someone was following me," Shun said with blazing eyes.
Wang Che could not determine if Shun was delirious. But the look on his face was intense and showed an incomprehensible fear. His heart hurt, and he swore to get to the bottom of this incident.
"I am here now. No one will harm you. I won't let anyone take you away from me." Wang Che smiled while detaching the clinging arm and tucking it back into the car.
"You promise?" Shun asked, his voice becoming weaker.
"I will never let you go. You are mine now." Wang Che added.
"You are mine," Shun said softly.
"Yes." Wang Che closed the door.
When he sat at the driver's seat, he realised Shun had lost consciousness. He took a deep breath before turning the car around. He needed to get Shun to the hospital as soon as possible. But he could not drive too fast.
As he drove down the mountain, he heard something behind him. The sound was quite familiar, but it had been years since he heard it. It was the sound of a rocket launcher. Immediately, he pushed down on the accelerator, and his car flew forward.
Mere seconds later, a loud explosion could be heard behind them. The slight tremors in the ground were proof of the intensity of the explosion. At first, Wang Che thought that the projectile was targeted at his car. However, he realised that the assailant had probably blown up Shun's car.
His dark eyes became cold and cruel.
Someone was eliminating the evidence by destroying the wrecked vehicle. The person behind the incident wanted to remain in the dark. Wang Che narrowed his eyes.
He would drag out the one who dared harm his sunshine from the shadows.
And they would pay for their actions.
