Chapter 38 038 Escape!
Just as Ye Pianran was about to drive the carriage away, a hoarse and unpleasant voice suddenly came from behind the carriage: "Oh, whose expensive carriage is parked here? And which young lady is sitting inside?"
The sound came so suddenly that Ye Pianran immediately felt uneasy: This is a desolate wilderness, how could someone suddenly arrive so coincidentally?
Just as she was thinking this, three ugly men rode around to the front of the carriage and smiled maliciously at Ye Pianran, "Oh, so there are two beautiful young ladies here. Miss, do you need our help?"
The three men's gazes were so blatant that they sent chills down Ye Pianran's spine. Suppressing her fear, Ye Pianran coldly shouted, "Get out of my way!"
"Don't be so fierce, young lady. Being too fierce will scare men away. We brothers have no ill intentions. We just want to help you out of kindness. Why don't you appreciate it?" The leader of the group said frivolously, and then his eyes darted around Ye Pianran twice.
Lingyi stood protectively in front of Ye Pianran, shouting angrily, "My young lady is the eldest daughter of the Marquis of Anshi's mansion! If you dare to lay a finger on her, the Marquis of Anshi's mansion will absolutely not let you off!"
"Oh? Is this the young lady who's rumored to have had affairs with multiple servants in the Marquis's mansion?" The three men burst into laughter. "So, Miss couldn't resist the temptation and came to this desolate place to find men. Miss, what do you think of the three of us?"
After saying that, one of them leaned over and grabbed Ye Pianran's hand. Lingyi screamed and grabbed the medical manual and incense burner scattered on the ground, throwing them at the three men. While they were dodging, Ye Pianran suddenly pulled out her hairpin and stabbed it hard into the horse's rump. Hot blood spurted out, and the horse reared up in pain, galloping wildly up the mountain like a madman.
"Lingyi, hold on tight!"
The mountain road was rugged and riddled with potholes and strange rocks, making the ride even more bumpy than before. Ye Pianran and Lingyi had to hold on tightly to the handlebars to barely avoid falling off. They thought they could shake off the three men, but before long, the disgusting sound of horses' hooves and shouts came from behind again. They hadn't given up and were still chasing after them!
"Girl, don't run away! We'll take good care of you, hahaha!"
Was she really going to die here today? A wave of intense despair washed over Ye Pianran. What was the point of her second life? Wasn't it to change her own and her loved ones' fate, to avoid repeating the same mistakes? But now?
Why, why did she have to suffer such injustice!
The horse galloped frantically upwards, disappearing into the woods before heading towards the cliff. With her life hanging by a thread, Ye Pianran, driven by a burning desire to escape, disregarded everything and lunged forward to grab the reins, pulling with all her might—
The horse's head was forced high, and it let out a mournful neigh. Finally, it came to an abrupt halt at the edge of the cliff. However, the wheels suddenly hit a rock, and Ye Pianran lost her balance. She was thrown off the carriage by the inertia of the journey and fell straight down the cliff.
It all happened so fast that Lingyi didn't even have time to grab the hem of her clothes before she cried out in anguish, "Miss!"
Is she going to die? Will she have a chance to start over this time?
Ye Pianran closed her eyes in despair, awaiting death once again. Unexpectedly, her body suddenly stopped, and in a dizzying moment, she found herself in a warm and reliable embrace.
