The bone-chilling night wind whistled into the car, causing the three women in the car to shiver.
Yang Cheng remained silent and calmly stepped on the brake. At the same time, he shifted the car into park gear and pulled up the handbrake!
"Screech!!!"
The Lexus's strong traction allowed it to slide for a long time before it finally stopped. A puff of white smoke rose from the car.
In front of them, the big truck was less than fifty meters away. It looked like a giant beast was about to swallow the four of them.
At this moment, Yang Cheng left the driver's seat. In a flash, he appeared five meters away from the front of the Lexus.
He stretched out his arms and raised his head as if he was enjoying it. It was like the classic scene in Titanic. However, in the movie, it was a woman who did this, but it was a man who did this.
"Yang Cheng!!!"
"Brother Yang!!"
The three women in the car shouted at the same time. Lin Ruoxi tried to reach out to stop Yang Cheng, but she couldn't even touch the corner of Yang Cheng's clothes.
They watched helplessly as Yang Cheng stood in front of the big truck like a martyr who was not afraid of death, intending to stop the steel beast with his flesh and blood.
Except for shock! Except for fear! It was incredible!!
This man, is he crazy!!
Hui Lin knew Yang Cheng the most, but the current situation made her nervous, not to mention Lin Ruoxi and Anxin. At the same time, they closed their eyes, unable to bear to see the result.
Although Anxin knew that Yang Cheng was good at martial arts, she subconsciously didn't think that a person could stop a truck with his body. That was something that could only be done by special effects in movies. She clenched her hands so tightly that her knuckles turned white!
As for whether the truck would run over Yang Cheng and then kill them, it was not something they could think about.
"Boom!"
After the roar of the diesel engine, there was a violent explosion in the air!
"Bang! Bang bang!! Squeak!! Bang, bang … "
Smoke and dust filled the air. The moment the truck was about to touch Yang Cheng's body, it suddenly seemed to have crashed into an invisible wall of air. Following that, the truck was forcefully dented by an irresistible force!
The thick and heavy metal plate twisted violently, breaking and bending inch by inch. The grinding sound of gears grinding against each other pierced through everyone's eardrums. What followed was the explosion of the engine cylinder and the breaking of the magnetic belt!
The rear half of the truck was lifted up due to the inertia of the impact. It rolled in the air and crashed into the green belt on the side of the road along with the front of the truck!
At the same time, the fragments of steel plates and spare parts, as well as glass shards, scattered everywhere, the heavy parts of the truck rolled up the soil on the side of the road, creating a huge crack.
The soil and plants were crushed into a complete mess, as if an excavator had been digging in a frenzy. It was a tragic sight to behold.
The three women in the car realized that nothing dangerous had happened. They carefully looked in front of the car, only to see that the truck had been smashed to pieces by the side of the road.
The man who had made them tremble with fear was leisurely strolling towards the pile of scraps of the truck. White smoke was still coming out from there, and the smell of burnt soil was extremely pungent.
Yang Cheng expressionlessly walked to the front of the truck, stretched out his hand, and pulled open a bent iron door. He pulled out a half-dead truck driver, whose head was dyed bright red, from the crushed truck.
It was a man who looked quite strong, but when Yang Cheng pulled him out, the guy had just died.
"What bad luck," Yang Cheng murmured, and then he was too lazy to deal with the mess and walked straight back to the car.
Anxin and Hui Lin were more accepting of the situation in front of them. After all, they had seen Yang Cheng's extraordinary background, but Lin Ruoxi was different. Although she had seen Yang Cheng kill people, she did not think that Yang Cheng could directly block a truck with his body.
Therefore, when Yang Cheng got into the car, Lin Ruoxi subconsciously shrank her delicate body.
Yang Cheng saw this, and there was a trace of bitterness in his heart.
After the completion of the Endless Resolve Restoration Scripture, his bad habit of easily falling into madness whenever he killed people in battle had been well suppressed, and he did not need to take the medicine given by Jane.
However, this did not mean that his inextinguishable murderous aura would disappear so easily. Every time he fought, he would not be able to control the violent soul in his body, and it would emit an aura that ordinary people would be afraid of.
Yang Cheng knew that his chronic illness had not been completely cured, so in a sense, he was still like a bomb buried in his body. He did not know if he would become a bloodthirsty monster in the future.
Yang Cheng tried his best to restrain his murderous aura, and then he squeezed out a smile and asked, "Did I scare you?"
Lin Ruoxi was a little regretful. She saw the sadness on Yang Cheng's face just now, and she shook her head and said, "I … I just couldn't adapt to it for a while. I'm fine now."
Yang Cheng nodded and started the car, but after a moment of silence, he said, "I hope that you never have the chance to adapt, even if … that is not possible."
Lin Ruoxi was silent and did not speak again. Hui Lin and Anxin, who were in the backseat, also seemed to feel that the atmosphere was not right, and fell into silence.
They didn't encounter any dangerous situations along the way, but Lin Ruoxi's phone calls kept coming in, and all of them were negative news about Yu Lei International. The police had also begun to investigate Yu Lei International's situation. After all, dozens of lives had been lost in this incident.
After thinking about it, Lin Ruoxi dialed Mo Qianni's number, "Qianni, where are you?"
"I've been in the company for a long time. If you didn't call me, I would have called you. The situation is very bad now." On the other end of the phone, Mo Qianni seemed to be busy with something, and all kinds of noises and shouts could be heard. She should be giving orders in the big office.
Lin Ruoxi took a deep breath and said, "I've heard about the situation at the factory from Wu Yue. Don't worry about it for the time being. I suspect that the opponent this time attacked our factory just to mess us up. They have sent assassins, and I suspect that they will also attack you and the other main staff of the company. Pay attention to your own safety, and get the security company's people to gather immediately … "
"Assassins!?" Mo Qianni exclaimed, and hurriedly asked, "Then … then are you guys okay?"
"Yeah …" Lin Ruoxi looked at Yang Cheng, who was driving silently, "We're fine, don't worry. Go and investigate first, and find out who is behind this."
Mo Qianni said awkwardly, "I'm afraid I can't leave now."
"Why?" Lin Ruoxi frowned.
"Just five minutes ago, a large number of foreign buyers suddenly bought our shares like crazy. Now the branch in the United States is a mess, and I'm remotely commanding and coordinating. If this continues, it's inevitable that we will have to mobilize funds from other areas. They are obviously deliberately trying to suppress us economically and materially, so that our stock market will collapse, and then our industry will suffer a setback … "
Lin Ruoxi closed her eyes and asked coldly, "Can you still hold on now?"
"It's very dangerous …" Mo Qianni said a few words to a few subordinates on the other end, and then continued, "Ruoxi … I think … let 'Athena Team' do it. The opponent seems to be a very powerful international financial trader, maybe a famous team. Now we have internal and external troubles, and we can't afford to make any mistakes. And if we let Athena Team do it, we can free up time to concentrate on mobilizing funds to prepare for a counterattack. "
The 'Athena Team' Mo Qianni mentioned was naturally the small team that Lin Ruoxi was directly in charge of in the battle to defeat Changlin Media and the Xu family. Every one of them was a trader and actuary from the world's top academies, and every year, a huge amount of money was spent to support them, and they only played a role in the important business war. Because that secret team only listened to Lin Ruoxi's mobilization, Mo Qianni could only ask Lin Ruoxi first.
Lin Ruoxi thought for a while, and said, "I'll go directly to the 'Athena Team' base in the resort. Qianni, temporarily take over my duties, and deal with the important projects that need to be done in the next few days. Let Mingyu cooperate with you, and bring the other department heads to stabilize the situation. The internal affairs of the company can't be chaotic. As for the problem of funds, I'll let Wu Yue mobilize it, she's more familiar with the bank. By the way, the bidding for the new factories tomorrow and the day after can't be put aside. Our budget should be enough to take those factories. Don't lose a good opportunity because of the terrible situation now. "
"Understood, I won't forget about the bidding and negotiations." Mo Qianni didn't suspect anything. Obviously, dealing with the troubles outside and the chaos in the company was enough to give her a headache. After listening to Lin Ruoxi's arrangement, she immediately agreed and hung up.
Then, Lin Ruoxi immediately called the less than ten members of the Athena Team back to the base of the resort. At the same time, she asked Yang Cheng to drive directly to the resort, and wouldn't go home for the time being.
Through the conversation with Lin Ruoxi on the phone, Yang Cheng more or less understood the current situation, but he didn't pay much attention to the company's situation. He was more concerned about who the culprit would be this time.
Currently, the most likely culprit was Ning Guodong, but he didn't seem to be that capable. Even if the Ning family had enough power and funds, they wouldn't hand it over to him to deal with Yu Lei International. So who could it be?
Thinking about it, Lin Ruoxi must have more candidates in mind, but she couldn't be sure, so she didn't say anything.
Hui Lin and Anxin, who had been listening to Lin Ruoxi's various orders, felt that the situation wasn't optimistic. Anxin was thinking about it, but Hui Lin didn't understand these business operations at all. She couldn't help but ask worriedly, "Sister, is something big happening? Can … can I help?"
Lin Ruoxi turned around and looked at Hui Lin's delicate and pretty face, the sincerity in her eyes warmed her heart. She couldn't help but smile, "It's okay, trust me."
Hui Lin nodded obediently. She also knew that she couldn't help Lin Ruoxi with anything, but she still felt uneasy.
"If there are any difficulties in gathering funds, the An family can help," Anxin suddenly said sincerely.
Lin Ruoxi was slightly surprised. She looked at Anxin with a complicated expression and said, "Thank you."
Anxin smiled sweetly, "No need to thank me. You're my sister, and I'm also a member of Yu Lei."
Lin Ruoxi also naturally pursed her lips. The two women looked at each other, as if there was something unspoken.
When the car approached the resort where Athena Team was located, Wu Yue called again. But this time, the news she brought made Lin Ruoxi's heart sink …
