Chapter 144 Accident
In the early hours of the morning, the moonlight was like silver, quietly falling on the quiet streets.
A black Rolls-Royce Phantom slowly drove out of the villa's garage, like an elegant black panther, quietly appearing in the night.
There was no one on both sides of the street, only the occasional passing vehicle broke the silence of the night.
Not long after the car drove out of the villa area, the driver Zhao Li stared at the rearview mirror and said solemnly: "Seventh Master, Madam, someone is following our car."
Shen Qianhe's heart tightened when she heard that. She subconsciously grabbed the armrest of the chair and looked back, but all she saw was darkness and she couldn't see anything clearly.
She asked uncertainly, "It's late at night, maybe you saw it wrongly?"
Zhao Li shook his head and said affirmatively, "No, ma'am. This section of the road is not yet in the city, and there are few cars. But the car behind us has been following us since we left the villa."
Xie Jincheng raised his eyebrows slightly, and his eyes narrowed slightly, "How many cars are there? Can you confirm it?"
"Three cars."
Xie Jincheng held Shen Qianhe's hand tightly and comforted him softly: "I'm here, don't be afraid."
Then, he said to Zhao Li in a deep voice: "Find a way to get rid of them."
"Yes. Master Qi, Madam, please sit tight!"
Zhao Li stepped on the accelerator suddenly, and the car seemed to be injected with a violent force in an instant. The roar was accompanied by an unstoppable momentum, and it galloped in the quiet night.
Almost at the same time, several cars behind them also accelerated rapidly like awakened beasts, their headlights flashing in the darkness, tightly biting their rear ends.
Zhao Li frowned and gripped the steering wheel tightly with both hands. He kept changing lanes, trying to get rid of these uninvited guests in the complex road network.
Sometimes he accelerated and rushed into the traffic, sometimes he braked suddenly to slow down, and even made a sharp turn at a bend in an attempt to disrupt the opponent's rhythm.
Thanks to his efforts, two cars gradually couldn't keep up with the pace and were left far behind.
But there was another car that always followed their car like a ghost. No matter how Zhao Li changed speed and direction, it followed him like a shadow and refused to give up.
Shen Qianhe was so nervous that a layer of cold sweat appeared on his palms.
Xie Jincheng's big hand always held her hand tightly, giving her some comfort.
"Seventh Master, Madam, hold on to the handrails!"
After saying that, Zhao Li suddenly turned the steering wheel and the car instantly rushed into a small road.
The paths are lined with dense trees and the roads are narrow and winding.
Zhao Li gripped the steering wheel tightly, looking intently ahead. With his superb driving skills, he maneuvered flexibly on the narrow road.
The car behind obviously didn't expect this move. They tried to follow closely, but the narrow road and dense trees greatly reduced their speed.
However, just when they thought they had escaped pursuit, the car suddenly rushed out from the front and blocked their way.
Zhao Li slammed on the brakes, the wheels made a harsh friction sound on the ground, and the car slid forward for a distance due to inertia before finally stopping.
He pressed the Bluetooth headset behind his ear and called for help, then took out a pistol from the storage box in front of the car, quickly checked the magazine, and prepared to deal with the impending danger.
At this moment, Shen Qianhe's attention was attracted by the front.
The door of the black car was suddenly pushed open and a short-haired woman got out.
Following her were five burly bodyguards in black.
They moved in unison, like well-trained soldiers.
Xie Jincheng turned his head and saw Shen Qianhe's nervous expression. He reached out his hand, gently touched her head, and comforted her softly: "Baby, stay in the car and don't come out."
Shen Qianhe tightly grasped Xie Jincheng's arm and shook his head, his eyes full of anxiety: "But the other side has a lot of people, what if something happens? Why don't you wait for the reinforcements to arrive before going out."
"Baby, are you worried about me?"
Xie Jincheng looked at her with a gentle smile in his eyes. Shen Qianhe was so angry that he punched him and scolded him, "It's already this hour, and you can still laugh?"
Xie Jincheng raised his long arm, pressed the back of her head, and kissed her brow: "Don't worry, I know my limits, don't worry. All you have to do is stay in the car and wait for me to come back, understand?"
Shen Qianhe moved her lips and wanted to speak, but her eyes met Xie Jincheng's clear black and white eyes.
His narrow eyes were full of affection, with tiny rays of light reflected from them, which made people feel at ease for some reason.
She nodded, let go of his hand, and watched him get out of the car.
After Xie Jincheng got off the car, Shen Qianhe's eyes fell on the short-haired woman.
Through the glass window, she vaguely felt that the woman looked familiar, as if she had seen her somewhere.
"I have heard of Mr. Xie Qi's name for a long time. Seeing him today, I can see that he is indeed extraordinary."
Nan Yin's voice was clear and powerful. She looked up at Xie Jincheng with a look of admiration in her eyes.
Xie Jincheng's face was half hidden in the darkness, unclear.
Standing behind him was Zhao Li, who was on guard with a gun.
"It's so late, and the fourth wife didn't get her beauty sleep, but squeezed into a car with her men just to follow me. It's really hard work."
Xie Jincheng's voice was calm and indifferent, without any emotion.
"Actually, I wanted to meet you last time, but then something went wrong."
Nan Yin raised the corners of her lips slightly, her almond-shaped eyes curved in a smile, her expression was hard to read, "However, after careful consideration, I still think it would be better to cooperate with you."
Xie Jincheng looked indifferent, too calm, "Thank you for your kindness, Madam Four, but I don't have many business contacts in Hong Kong, so I'm afraid there's no chance of cooperation with you."
"You haven't even heard the content of my cooperation yet, how can you be sure that there is no possibility of cooperation between us?"
Nan Yin was not discouraged by Xie Jincheng's refusal. Instead, she raised her lips and smiled gently, then turned her gaze to Shen Qianhe who was sitting behind her.
"Haven't you been helping your wife find the whereabouts of her mother, Xu Shuqin? If you have no interest in this at all, I can leave right now."
Xie Jincheng's gaze suddenly swept towards Nan Yin, his sharp black eyes were full of vigilance, sharpness, and a hint of ruthlessness.
"Tell me, what do you want?"
Nan Yin curled her lips and smiled, revealing a cunning look. She stared at the man in front of her and said, "Last time you brought a woman out of Dabao Village. If you hand her over to me, I will help you introduce her to Mr. Xiao and let your wife meet her mother."
Xie Jincheng's eyes darkened, and his dark pupils were cold: "If it's just this matter, there's no need for the Fourth Madam to follow me every day, right?"
Nan Yin slowly raised a hand, covered her lips, and laughed softly. "It's really easy to deal with a smart person like you, so I'll just say it straight."
"I want you to..."
Nan Yin had just said half of her words when suddenly, a few abrupt "drip drip" sounds were heard in the silent night.
This sound...
"Seventh Master! Get down!"
Zhao Li, who was standing behind Xie Jincheng, suddenly shouted, then quickly threw himself on Xie Jincheng, holding him tightly under his body.
Nan Yin's bodyguards on the opposite side also heard the sound, and they were well-trained and reacted almost at the same time.
At the same time, the car behind Xie Jincheng made a loud noise.
The shock wave generated by the explosion raised a cloud of dust, and a burnt smell instantly filled the air.
The fire flickered in the night, illuminating everything around.
Xie Jincheng and Zhao Li raised their heads with difficulty and looked at the Phantom that had been engulfed in flames.
"Chizuru——"
