Lu Zhi didn’t panic at all. He looked calmly at the car behind them and continued to drive forward.
Jiang Yining, who was sitting in the back, felt a wave of nausea in her stomach.
But she bit her lower lip and did not make a sound.
After driving for about half an hour, the car behind them closed the distance again and bumped into them from time to time.
There were a few times when their car almost spun out of control, but Lu Zhi brought the car back under control every time.
When the pursuers saw that Lu Zhi had no way out, they started honking to force him to stop the car.
Through the car windows, Jiang Yining could see the pursuers honking at them non-stop. A few men were even hitting their car with iron rods.
She frowned.
“Sir, there’s a cliff ahead. We can’t drive further.” Qi Feng noticed the direction Lu Zhi was going and couldn’t help but remind him.
Lu Zhi didn’t say a word and continued to step on the accelerator.
The hooligans sent by the Tao family got even more deranged and started shouting.
Bang!
It was another violent collision from behind, and Jiang Yining’s head hit the head rest.
Her pearly white teeth also rubbed against her mouth and she could taste blood…
But the hooligans didn’t show any sign of stopping and continued to harass them.
Qi Feng braced himself and held his breath as he looked at the cliff ahead.
Lu Zhi silently counted down their distance from the edge.
200 meters… 150 meters… 100 meters…
30 meters…
When he reached the minimum turning circle, he swerved the car without hesitation. With a squeal, their car drew a deep and long arc on the grass…
And then, with a loud crash, they hit a rock by the roadside.
Jiang Yining only felt her body being thrown about in the car.
Her vision went dark for a few seconds.
When she came to, Lu Zhi was pulling her out of the car as he asked, “Are you hurt anywhere?”
“No, I’m just a little dizzy.”
“Okay, stay here.” After Lu Zhi finished speaking, he took out two golf clubs from the trunk and threw one to Qi Feng.
They then walked coldly toward the edge of the cliff.
Jiang Yining looked in his direction and saw that half the convoy that was chasing them had been destroyed. The remaining cars weren’t in good shape either!
Only a few men emerged from the cars.
When one of them saw Lu Zhi and Qi Feng, he remembered his orders and picked up his iron rod to fight.
However, before he could even touched Lu Zhi…
He saw Lu Zhi swing his golf club with a stern expression and hit him with it.
Crack!
The sound of bones breaking could be heard. The confident and arrogant man just now fell to the ground instantly and moaned in pain.
When the rest of the men saw this, they were scared out of their wits and started retreating.
Lu Zhi’s cold gaze swept across them as he approached them slowly with pursed lips.
He looked like an Asura from hell, terrifying everyone in his path to the bone!
Someone mustered up the courage and shouted, “What are we afraid of? There are only two of them. Come on, brothers! We’ll be rich when we catch them!”
Everyone was instantly excited!
Yeah, why should they be afraid of two men?
They had strength in numbers!
It would be a piece of cake for them to take down Lu Zhi and his assistant!
They stopped retreating and started attacking Lu Zhi and Qi Feng.
Lu Zhi curled his lips and let out a cold laugh as he gripped his golf club tightly. Every time he raised the club, it would land swiftly and decisively on someone.
An innocent-looking golf club became a powerful weapon in his hands.
The six men surrounding him kept falling, getting up, and falling again…
Until finally, no one dared to attack him anymore.
“Tell Tao Siyuan that I’ll settle the score tonight with him tomorrow. We have unfinished business!” Lu Zhi said with a straight and authoritative face, like a victor. “Scram!”
Once his last word fell, the men lying on the ground, who were already scared out of their wits, endured the immense pain they felt and crawled away slowly.
Jiang Yining walked up unhurriedly and handed Lu Zhi a handkerchief. “Lu Zhi, you shouldn’t have gotten yourself involved in this mess.”
He didn’t have to come forward and destroy Tao Siyuan’s casino.
He had now stirred a hornet’s nest and goodness knew how things would end…
She felt guilty.
Lu Zhi put down his golf club and wiped his hands. He said coldly, “My wife has been dragged in. How can 1 just stand on the sidelines?”
“I’m sorry… 1’11 be more careful next time.”
She never wanted to drag him into this mess.
Lu Zhi’s expression softened when he heard that. He patted her head and said, “You can feel guilty toward me but you don’t have to be more careful next time. You’re my people and you have the right to stand up for your friends. I’ll always have your back. Let’s see who would dare to touch you.”
Jiang Yining was speechless.
He was truly an arrogant and unyielding man, but it was only because he could.
When he said all that, he didn’t make people think that he was arrogant. Instead, he made people admire him!
“Let’s go home. I’m covered in filth and I need a shower badly.”
Lu Zhi looked at their crashed car not far away with disgust.
He suffered from slight mysophobia.
And he didn’t like to touch strangers.
“Sure.”
Jiang Yining nodded.
At the Tao residence…
Tao Siyuan looked at his heavily injured men and smashed the ashtray on the ground in exasperation. “B*stard! This Lu Zhi is too much! I have no grudge against him but he ruined my place. And now he hurt my people? Does he really think that the Lu family is above the law and that no one can touch them?”
He Lian stood up in her pajama robe and gently caressed her husband’s chest.
“Don’t be angry.”
“How can 1 not be angry? That place makes a net profit of 100 million yuan a year. How can 1 not be angry when he destroyed my source of income and got your brother locked up at the police station?”
Tao Siyuan was so angry that his face turned red with bulging veins.
He Lian lowered her eyes, feeling slightly torn.
The casino in question had been handed over to her and her brother by their master, but she couldn’t expose her master.
So, she married Tao Siyuan and paid him 100 million yuan a year.
And this time…
Lu Zhi had destroyed their casino for no reason.
She had been ordered by her master to stir up a feud between the Lu and the Tao families.
Therefore, she talked Tao Siyuan into finding 20 to 30 people to “teach Lu Zhi a lesson”. It would be best if they could take his life!
But she never expected his bunch of idiots to fail so miserably.
“No, I’m going to ask the old master to deal with Lu Zhi himself. That bastard of a junior!” Based on seniority, Tao Siyuan was Lu Zhi’s uncle.
Tao Siyuan stood up to leave.
But He Lian pulled him back and said, “Don’t go to the old master until it’s a last resort. He’s such a busy man. Why would he care about us? Besides, he might not take our side.”
“Do you have another way if we don’t go to the old master?”
“Yes, listen to me.” He Lian whispered a few words in his ear.
A happy smile appeared on Tao Siyuan’s face.
He hugged He Lian and said, “Lian’er, you are so smart. I love you so much.”
He Lian smiled gently but did not respond..
