"The situation is very bad. We need to get to the hospital as soon as possible. Could you please take us? I’ll pay for the ride after the child is safe!"
Clearly, compared to the woman, this middle-aged man was much calmer. Although his anxiety made him speak quickly, he managed to express the situation clearly.
Xia Liang glanced at the little girl in the man’s arms. He saw her gasping for air, her face already turning a faint shade of purple. He immediately frowned, swiped on his phone to cancel his current ride, and said in a deep voice, "Get in the car, quickly!"
Hearing this, the middle-aged man hurriedly carried the little girl into the car. Since there were only two seats, the woman had to stay behind; she would hail her own taxi to follow them. The man and child went on ahead.
Xia Liang was quite familiar with the roads in this area. He knew there was a hospital about ten kilometers away, which he figured was the closest one.
Xia Liang whipped the car around and slammed the accelerator to the floor. The Audi A3L let out a roar like an arrow loosed from a bow, speeding away.
It was noon, and with schoolchildren heading home for lunch, the roads were bustling with traffic. Relying on his god-like driving skills, Xia Liang continuously wrenched the steering wheel, weaving through the congested traffic with daring precision.
However, no matter how skilled he was, Xia Liang couldn’t make the car fly. Faced with a complete traffic jam, he was helpless.
He turned to look at the passenger seat. The little girl’s condition seemed to be getting worse, her complexion turning a deeper purple.
Xia Liang quickly stuck his head out the window and shouted at the cars in front, "Move to the side! Let me through! I have a child having an asthma attack and I need to get to the hospital! Please, make way!"
"Move to the side! Let me through! I have a child having an asthma attack and I need to get to the hospital! Please, make way!"
"Move to the side! Let me through! I have a child having an asthma attack and I need to get to the hospital! Please, make way!"
After Xia Liang shouted three times, the cars ahead immediately started moving, voluntarily clearing a path to either side. Some cars even drove right up against the curb, pushing onto the sidewalk just to make room.
Drivers further ahead couldn’t hear Xia Liang, so the cars closer to him passed the message forward. Several drivers even got out of their cars to direct traffic, running ahead to knock on windows.
A burly, broad-shouldered man climbed down from a large truck. His bare, tattooed torso made him look fierce, like a gangster.
He first walked closer to take a look, then strode decisively toward the front of the line and knocked on the window of a BMW.
"Hey! Didn’t you hear the shouting? There’s a kid back there who needs to get to the hospital, now! Move it!"
"What? You say you’re in a hurry? Hurry my ass! You think your rush is more important than that kid’s?"
"Cut the crap and move! I’m giving you ten seconds, or This Master will run your car over!"
In the end, after some "friendly negotiation," the BMW quickly moved aside.
The man waved at Xia Liang. "Go, go, go! Hurry! The kid’s safety is what’s most important! Get to the hospital!"
Xia Liang didn’t hesitate. He stomped on the gas, speeding down the path that countless vehicles had spontaneously created for him.
In the passenger seat, the man holding the child was gradually losing control of his emotions. His eyes were red-rimmed as he kept thanking the drivers who had made way for them, his words becoming a bit jumbled. "Thank you... thank you all so much. You saved my child... you saved me. I’m sorry... I’m so sorry for the trouble!"
About a minute later, Xia Liang broke through the traffic jam, blowing through red lights as he charged forward. He was only three kilometers from the hospital now. The road ahead was straight with little traffic; if all went well, they could be there in two minutes.
However, just as Xia Liang accelerated to overtake, the Porsche 911 in front of him suddenly changed lanes as well, forcefully blocking him.
Xia Liang didn’t pay it much mind and simply changed lanes again, speeding up to try and pass.
The next second, the Porsche 911 immediately switched lanes again, continuing to block his path.
Xia Liang’s brows furrowed. He tried a few more times and realized the Porsche 911 was deliberately boxing him in.
At that moment, a heavily made-up woman leaned out from the passenger seat of the Porsche and made a face at Xia Liang. At the same time, a left hand extended from the driver’s window, giving him a thumbs-down gesture. They were clearly provoking him.
Xia Liang’s expression darkened. He considered himself to have a pretty good temper and might have been amused to play along on a normal day. But right now, he had absolutely no desire to engage with them.
He suddenly eased off the accelerator, turning his head to speak to the man beside him. "Fasten your seatbelt. Sit tight and hold on!"
The man instinctively hugged the child in his arms closer, using his free hand to grip the handle on the side.
The next second, Xia Liang switched lanes and slammed the accelerator to the floor. The engine roared deafeningly at maximum output. And, just as he’d expected, the Porsche 911 immediately changed lanes to block him again.
In the driver’s seat of the Porsche, a stylistically dressed young man snorted disdainfully, raising an eyebrow at the woman beside him. "See? I told you. If I don’t let him pass, he can only eat my dust. A puny little Audi thinks it can race me?"
As he spoke, he glanced at his rearview mirror, expecting to see Xia Liang obediently slow down and change lanes. However, his expression quickly changed.
In his rearview mirror, the Audi A3L showed no sign of braking or slowing down. On the contrary, it was accelerating, and he could hear its engine roaring clearly, even from a car’s length away. Fresh chapters posted on novel※fire.net
"Holy shit! He’s insane!"
The young man panicked, frantically yanking the steering wheel in a desperate attempt to dodge the raging beast behind him.
The Audi slammed hard into the rear of the Porsche 911. The young man felt a massive impact from behind, jolting him violently. His car swayed rapidly from side to side, in danger of flipping over at any moment.
In the passenger seat, the woman let out a piercing scream. In the sudden impact, her forehead had smashed against the dashboard, and a large lump immediately began to form.
The young man gripped the steering wheel for dear life. After several seconds, the car finally stabilized.
