Let's Get Married

Astonished, Lily watches a series of moves of him, completely unaware of what he intends to do.

“I can’t! You are squatting there! How can I get over there?”

“Yes, you can. Move your legs first and I will keep squatting down.” The man sounds a bit hasty, with his face tightening up, “There is no time left, come on!”

“But…”

“The current speed is 120 kilometers per hour. According to calculation, there is a tunnel in the middle during the way back, after which there is a mountain with a city moat. The moat winds around City J and leads to other places. We need to drive into the moat and jump out the second before the car falls.” The man speaks fast, but as clearly as possible.

Drive into the river and jump out of the car?

Lily can’t help shocking at the thought of this. No mortal will be able to do that, right? A second late and she might die in the river.

With her heart beating so fast that she feels like exploding, Lily does the calculation in her head…It is next to impossible to do this and succeed.

Seeing her hesitating, the man squints at her and asks, “Miss Lily, do you believe in Mr. Ryan?”

Does she believe in him?

Yes, she does, because if not, what is she doing now? At the moment he cut the barred wire, there is no turning back.

Lily takes a deep breath and though there is still hesitation in her eyes, she begins acting as per the man’s instructions.

In the speeding car, Lily slowly moves left to the driver’s seat.
