“Darling, I can see that you’re jealous,” Fu Chengyan said as he appeared to be in a good mood. “But, don’t worry. Given that it’s rare for me to see you jealous, I will resolve this matter to your satisfaction!”
Just as he spoke, he noticed that he was being followed and couldn’t recognize who it was. The car maintained a close distance no matter how fast he drove. Whoever they were, they were not worried about exposing their identity at all. Fu Chengyan accelerated his car, but the car behind him kept up.
He squinted as he could hear Shi Nuan’s laughter. “May, don’t follow me. You should turn into Wenjiang Street at the next junction.”
“Why?” Shi Nuan started to worry when she heard Fu Chengyan’s tone change all of a sudden. However, she had no idea what was going on. Shi Nuan looked in front and could no longer see Fu Chengyan’s car anywhere.
“Yan, where are you? What’s going on? Answer me!” Shi Nuan yelled, “Yan!”
“I’m fine. May, listen to me. Turn off at the next junction. When you reach Wenjiang Street, give Pei Jingxiu a call.” Fu Chengyan ended the call immediately. He narrowed his eyes and looked behind him before flooring the accelerator. The car behind increased its speed to keep up.
Fu Chengyan considered his options before making a sharp turn into another street. He realized that his tail was an equally skillful driver when he saw him execute the same maneuver. Under normal circumstances, Fu Chengyan would have lost him by now.
Fu Chengyan furrowed his brows in frustration and gave Li Heng a call. “Li Heng, lock into my location now. I’m being followed by another car. Get Liang Lin to hack into all the security cameras nearby to see who is doing this!”
“Alright!” Li Heng replied as he put down his phone and turned on his computer. He also instructed Liang Lin to hack into the security cameras before sending Fu Chengyan all the data.
“Yan, who in K Nation have you offended?” Li Heng asked in a grave tone. “Isn’t today Shengyuan’s annual meeting? You…”
Fu Chengyan inquired as he raised an eyebrow, “Can you get someone here in time?”
“I’m afraid they won’t make it!” Li Heng replied as he checked the GPS system on the computer and located the perpetrators. “There are three people in the car. Two males and one female. They are also armed. Can you handle them?”
“I don’t have a choice now, do I? It will be too late by the time you arrive,” Fu Chengyan replied coldly. “Help me find a place nearby that’s suitable.”
“Make a turn five hundred meters in front of you and then turn right. You will enter a one-way street that leads to the highway. There, you will find some ruins where you can set a trap.” Li Heng paused for a moment before continuing, “What about Shi Nuan?”
“I asked her to seek out Pei Jingxiu.” Fu Chengyan pursed his lips with a grave expression on this face. “I’ll wait for you and Shaoqing if you guys can get there in time.”
Fu Chengyan made a turn when he finished and drove according to the directions that Li Heng had given him. The male driver of the car behind was surprised. “Sir, this is not the way back to Wutong Residence.”
“Keep following him.”
“But what about the ambush that we have set along the way to there…”
“Enough! Just keep going!” The man sitting behind glared at the driver. “Fu Chengyan seems to be doing well so far, but nothing is going to save him today. He is doomed.”
Li Heng had already hacked into the perpetrators’ phones. He became increasingly concerned and asked, “Chengyan, where is Shi Nuan now?”
“Wen Jiang street. I’m not sure whether she will give Pei Jingxiu a call.” Fu Chengyan’s face darkened. “I didn’t see anyone following her car when they were behind me, so she should be…”
“No, I’ve managed to find out some information by hacking into their phones. They have placed an ambush on the way to your home. I’m sure that they know your habits well given how detailed their plan is. Your marriage…”
“Damn it. May!” Fu Chengyan said with haste, “Li Heng, get Shaoqing and Jingxiu to go and find May!”
“Stay calm, Shaoqing is already on his way to you. I’ll call Jingxiu again!”
As for Shi Nuan, she felt lost after Fu Chengyan ended their call. She wanted to call him back but couldn’t get through. Shi Nuan started to panic when she realized that there was a car approaching her from behind. It didn’t seem to be slowing down.
She slammed her foot on the accelerator and made a turn at the junction. After that, she immediately took out her phone and found Pei Jingxiu’s number. “Pei, it’s me, Shi Nuan.”
“What is it?” Pei Jingxiu narrowed his eyes as he could hear Shi Nuan’s voice trembling over the phone. He knew instantly that something was wrong. “Where’s Chengyan?”
“Pei, Yan and I are being followed on our way home. Yan has driven off by himself and seemed to have a tail on him. I’m driving another car by myself. However, I’m also being followed, and Yan asked me to call you. Pei, what should I do now?”
The cigarette in Pei Jingxiu’s hand was almost burnt out. He then stood up and grabbed his jacket as he walked out. “Stay calm. Where are you now?”
