Chapter 450: Chapter 450: The rcedes Crashes into the Nightclub Chapter 450: Chapter 450: The rcedes Crashes into the Nightclub Before he knew it, it was already six o’clock in the evening.
Since Li Qiao and Lian Zhen were due to report to the research institute tomorrow, their lab colleagues had specially arranged a farewell dinner for them.
At the food street, seven people sat at a barbecue stall, with beer and beverages covering the table.
Fu Lvting had also joined them.
At this point, soone shook their beer bottle and looked across at Lian Zhen and Li Qiao, “Lianzi, Xiao Li, if you guys get promoted at the research institute, don’t forget about us.”
No sooner had the words left his mouth than soone else chid in, “Exactly, even if we can’t continue with the experint, if you make any small achievents, rember to include us.”
Li Qiao lowered her head to eat her grilled chicken wings as if she hadn’t heard.
Lian Zhen, always considerate, clinked his beer with the other’s and responded with a warm and polite smile, “There’s no big promotion; it’s just conducting research in a new place.”
Upon hearing this, the others exchanged glances and embarrassed chuckles, not following up on the conversation.
When Lian Zhen and Li Qiao went to the research institute, they also took the gene mutation project with them.
The research was forcibly terminated, which was incredibly upsetting for any researcher.
However, they had no position to complain, given that the research institute only wanted Lian Zhen and Li Qiao.
…
The dinner ended in less than an hour.
Li Qiao, Lian Zhen, and Fu Lvting were the last to leave.
Lian Zhen said he was eting a classmate and, after arranging a ti to report with Li Qiao for the next day, left first after bidding farewell.
In the parking lot, Fu Lvting glanced at his car, “It’s still early, want to visit the old man at the martial arts school?”
Li Qiao’s car was parked next to his.
She flipped her car keys and replied without much thought, “Sure.”
The South Sea Conference at the Royal Hotel had also just ended that afternoon.
She would visit her teacher and, by the way, pass on Tu Anliang’s situation.
Hearing this, Fu Lvting’s eyes lit up with a smile, and soon they got into their cars, one after the other, and drove out of the parking lot.
The drive from the food street to the Fu Family Martial Arts School took about forty minutes.
Fu Lvting’s car was leading the way, but as soon as they got on the main road, his phone rang.
“Xiao Li, what’s up?”
He glanced back through the rearview mirror, suddenly noticing that Li Qiao’s car had turned left at the intersection behind him.
At the sa ti, Li Qiao’s faint voice ca through the phone, “Brother Fu, you go ahead, I’ve got sothing to take care of and won’t make it tonight.”
Fu Lvting had already rged onto the main road.
He frowned at the disappearing rcedes, sensing sothing was amiss.
While he hadn’t interacted with Li Qiao much, her character was to stick to her words.
This kind of last-minute change was almost unheard of.
Slowing down, Fu Lvting tentatively asked, “Did sothing happen?”
“No.” Li Qiao’s indifferent tone betrayed nothing unusual, “There’s sothing at ho I need to deal with.
You go back to the martial arts school and give my regards to the teacher.”
Fu Lvting didn’t press further and signed off after acknowledging, perhaps there really was an issue at ho.
He took another glance at the rearview mirror, pursed his lips, and sped up again, rging back into the traffic.
On the other side, Li Qiao hung up the phone and tossed it onto the passenger seat.
Holding the steering wheel with one hand, the corners of her mouth curled into a mocking cold sneer.
The brakes had failed.
In fact, from the mont she drove out of the parking lot, sothing felt wrong.
The car shook unnaturally, it wouldn’t slow down, and by the ti she was on the main road, she had enough to determine the problem with the car.
Li Qiao looked ahead with a detached expression, although the car speed couldn’t be reduced, she still maintained control of the vehicle.
About ten minutes later, three black vans joined the pursuit.
She glanced at the road signs and smoothly turned the steering wheel towards South City.
Half an hour later, a rcedes-Benz G-Class stord into the main hall doors of the Athena Sleepless City in South City without any warning.
It wasn’t yet eight o’clock in the evening, and the Sleepless City hadn’t opened for business.
The robust fra of the rcedes-Benz G-Class shattered the glass doors of the Sleepless City, the hood dented inwards, entirely destroying the grand entrance, leaving the lavish lobby in complete disarray.
Broken glass, bricks, pieces of the door fra, debris scattered everywhere.
The Sleepless City bodyguards who had narrowly escaped the crash sheltered behind the columns, grateful to be alive.
The domineering black rcedes-Benz G-Class was now parked right in the center of the lobby.
For the mont, no one dared approach, and even the street outside quickly attracted a crowd of onlookers.
Upstairs, Tu Anliang, having heard the commotion, ca out cursing, followed by his n.
He had returned to Sleepless City from the Royal Hotel at three o’clock in the afternoon.
South City, taken over by Qiu Huan.
But that didn’t an he was ready to accept it.
Tu Anliang, radiating murderous energy, walked down the staircase and glanced at the lobby, his temples nearly exploding.
Sleepless City was his foundation in South City, his base for earning money.
Now, with the lobby in ruins and the facade of the whole nightclub destroyed, it was clear there would be no business until the entrance was repaired.
Yet, when Tu Anliang saw the rcedes, he narrowed his eyes and touched his beard, a sinister smile spreading across his face.
Before long, he descended the stairs, kicked aside the rubble at his feet, and walked straight towards the driver’s compartnt of the rcedes.
Outside, the three black vans that had been trailing Li Qiao also stopped along the curbside.
Tu Anliang’s n, hurrying in, were baffled by the scene.
They indeed intended to kidnap Li Qiao without exerting any effort; surely she could have stopped by crashing into a tree, but why slam straight into his Sleepless City’s doors?
At that mont, Tu Anliang craned his neck to look inside the rcedes, hearing no sound, he reached out to pull the door, but the slightly deford door was forcefully pushed open from the inside, striking him right on the forehead.
Recoiling from the force, Tu Anliang staggered back several steps, seeing stars.
“Fuck…”
This sudden turn of events caught Tu Anliang off-guard.
As his n managed to support him, a figure also stepped out of the vehicle at a leisurely pace.
The steering wheel’s airbag had deployed, but the car was in excellent condition.
Aside from a slightly red forehead, Li Qiao appeared entirely unhard.
She walked towards Tu Anliang, stepping over the scattered debris, her expression cool, her fra slender, standing amidst the chaos, surrounded by Tu Anliang’s n.
Li Qiao was encircled.
Tu Anliang shook his head, his gaze dark yet triumphant, “Do you think, you could still…”
Li Qiao didn’t care for his blather, reaching up to touch her own forehead, she slowly lifted her eyelids, “I once promised Jiugong that I would spare you.”
Jiugong had severed his own arm but still had concerns for this son.
Why couldn’t he just live peacefully?
These words were beyond Tu Anliang’s expectations.
His Adam’s apple bobbed, his emotions seemingly uncontrollable, suddenly he bellowed, “He told you to spare ?
What right does that old bastard have to spout such nonsense?”
