A Kitchen Knife and a Machete
In Beijing, Zhao Anzhi, who had just left Mr. Zhao's house, did not know what had happened in Shanghai. If she knew it now, she would be furious. She had stayed in Canada for more than 20 years, just to protect Yaya from threats and Shanghai. Now, as soon as she came back, someone took the risk out of desperation, which was challenging her bottom line.
In the western suburbs, Qin Changan was ready to go back to the siheyuan of the Qin Family after meeting the old friend who was very difficult to meet. On the contrary, Qin Changan felt that he had gained a lot tonight. Since there was no way back, he could be unscrupulous and did not need to think about those useless things anymore.
This place was relatively remote, and there were not many cars in the evening. On the way back, Qin Changan closed his eyes to rest, thinking about the next layout and dismantling. The public opinion had been controlled. After all, no one was willing to expose too many things to the public. However, the real confrontation was still behind the scenes, and it was just the beginning.
Every time Qin Changan went out, there were two cars. He sat in the front one, and several bodyguards sat in the back one. The two cars were almost the same except for the license plate, which could also prevent unknown dangers.
When they just passed a T-junction, no one noticed that two Jeep Wranglers suddenly rushed out from the right crossing, running the red light, and went straight to Qin Changan's motorcade. The Wrangler in the front accelerated and crashed into the Mercedes-Benz behind.
With a bang, the trunk of the Mercedes-Benz was directly smashed, which looked terrible. The bodyguards in the car were also in a daze, and the airbag almost popped. Fortunately, the driving bodyguard noticed the Wrangler suddenly rushing over from the rearview mirror, so he was prepared and did not lose control of the car. After all, he was an experienced driver, but he did not expect to encounter such a crisis here.
At this time, the other Wrangler directly accelerated and overtook the Mercedes-Benz behind, rushing to the Mercedes-Benz where Qin Changan was. The driving bodyguard had followed Qin Changan for several years. He was a serious soldier and had dealt with many crises. Qin Changan had always wanted to promote him, but he said that he only knew how to drive.
Since there were no cars in the first place, the driver, who was a soldier, had already noticed that two cars suddenly rushed out from the back. Moreover, the two cars collided so loudly, who could not hear it?
Apart from the Soldier King who was driving the Mercedes-Benz in the front, there were only Gongsun, who was in the co-pilot seat, and Qin Changan, who was in the backseat. Qin Changan opened his eyes slightly after hearing the loud noise behind him.
At this time, the soldier king who was driving shouted in a deep voice, "Master Qin, be careful. We are in danger."
After saying that, he stepped on the accelerator and rushed forward. Gong Sun frowned and immediately looked back. The modified Wrangler was like a runaway wild horse. If the driver didn't react fast enough, he would have crashed into them. The consequences would be unimaginable. Just like that, the two cars began a death chase on the highway, just like in a Western American movie. One had to know that this was the capital, and they were really unscrupulous. It could be seen that the opponent tonight had a similarly powerful background.
Qin Changan muttered to himself, "They really don't leave us a way out." He had just left that place and encountered such a situation. It was very ironic.
Qin Changan did not bother to guess who was the main character behind the scene tonight. It was nothing more than internal and external troubles. The internal troubles were the major shareholders who wanted to make him out of the game. He guessed that letting his sister-in-law and Sheng 'er enter the board of directors had angered those people. Moreover, Sheng' er had gotten enough shares, and he acted first and reported later. That was why they were so angry.
At the thought of Sheng 'er, Qin Changan's face changed slightly. Since these people dared to attack him in Beijing, what about Sheng' er who was far away in Shanghai? Qin Changan immediately came to himself and said, "Gongsun, call Sheng 'er."
At this time, Gongsun was about to call for support. He was afraid that others had backup plans. He could not let his master be in danger. However, he did not expect that Qin Changan would ask him to call Qin Sheng at this time.
Gongsun did not hesitate and immediately dialed Qin Sheng's number. At that time, Qin Sheng was fighting with Niu Er in Shanghai, of course, he had no time to answer the phone. Gongsun called several times in a row, but no one answered. His face became more and more gloomy. Could it be that Qin Sheng was also in danger?
"Master, no one answered." Gongsun replied helplessly, "I'll try again later."
Qin Changan did not say anything, nor did he ask Gongsun to call Qin Ran again. Even if Qin Ran's phone call got through, he would not be able to do anything. If there was no danger, they would be nervous. At this time, Gongsun could not care about anything else. He immediately called for help.
The Jeep Wrangler was chasing closely. The driver drove the Mercedes-Benz all the way. Fortunately, it was a Mercedes-Benz. If it was an ordinary car, it might have been caught up with long ago. The consequences would be unimaginable. The Mercedes-Benz, which had been smashed into a mess, saw that the Mercedes-Benz in front of it was in trouble. They did not care about anything else and stepped on the gas pedal to catch up with it. At this time, they would stop the Wrangler in front of them even if their cars were destroyed. They would never let it threaten the big boss.
As a result, the two cars became four cars. The scene was extremely explosive. Those who did not know would have thought that they were shooting a movie.
In the alley of Shanghai, the man who appeared out of nowhere broke the deadlock and gave Qin Sheng a chance to breathe. No one noticed where the man came from. Of course, they could not see clearly who he was at the moment. However, the voice sounded familiar. If they could see the Double Liren chef's knife in the man's hand, they would be able to confirm his identity.
He was none other than the owner of the Hermit House, Sister Lu's husband, Brother Lu. He was a very low-key and polite man. Except for the beginning and the last time he showed up to greet and send off the guests, he spent most of the time in the kitchen. Cooking was his specialty, but his real specialty was killing people.
In front of the window on the second floor of the Hermit House, Sister Lu lit a cigarette. She squinted her eyes and stared at the alley outside. She did not turn on the light. If Lin Su was not her friend, she would not care about the life and death of these people. What did it have to do with her? But who asked Lin Su to be her friend? At this moment, Sister Lu was completely different from how she was in front of others. She looked a little cold.
She knew all about her husband's past, so she did not want her husband to take risks. Moreover, after witnessing the battle outside, they also knew that the opponents Qin Sheng and his men met were not simple. At the same time, they were sure that these people were noble. It was not easy to get Lin Su to be his girlfriend. She had guessed it from the way they talked and behaved during dinner.
Just now, her husband asked her, "Are you going to help?"
Sister Lu did not pressure her husband. She knew that her husband had been away from those trivial things for many years. If he had not noticed that the enemy was chasing after him, maybe they would still be active in the Shanghai food circle and be the God of Cooking couple that everyone envied. If he chose to help, he would not have a Hermit House after tonight. If he did not help, his conscience would more or less be uneasy.
So Sister Lu said softly, "Don't care about my feelings. If you want to help, just do it. If not, it's okay."
Brother Lu let out a long sigh and said, "After all, he is your friend, and he is at the door of our Hermit House. If I don't help, I can't say no. We can just move to another city after this."
"It's up to you." Sister Lu smiled.
So Brother Lu took out the Shuang Liren chef's knife from the kitchen, which was used for cooking and killing. This was the chef's knife that Shuang Liren had specially made for him. It had his English name and the logo of Shuang Liren on it. He had been using it for many years.
In the alley, Brother Lu held the chef's knife between his left thumb and index finger and walked slowly toward Niuer. Strictly speaking, Brother Lu was of mixed blood. He had Chinese, English, and French descent. So he had a broad forehead, a high nose bridge, deep eyes, and stubble, which made him very manly. Of course, the scars on his body were even more attractive, but others could not see them. Just now, Lin Su, Qin Ran, and Qin Jing all secretly looked at him many times. Even Qin Sheng was envious of Brother Lu's appearance and temperament. No wonder he could conquer Sister Lu.
Niu Er was ready for battle. Just as Qin Sheng could sense his danger, Niu Er also felt the danger of this man in front of him. He was extremely dangerous, so he didn't dare to be careless at all. He changed the machete in his hand into a more simple and unadorned one, staring at Brother Lu who was coming toward him.
"You also know how to play with knives?" Niuer asked stiffly. His accent was very heavy, like the accent of the two lakes. He and his uncle's knife skills were the same, but his uncle had not learned the true meaning of knife skills.
Brother Lu said calmly, "If cooking can be counted as playing with knives, I should have been playing with knives for 30 years."
In short, Brother Lu told Qin Sheng and the others his identity, so that they would not think of him as an enemy. This could also reduce the pressure on them.
"Brother Lu?" Qin Sheng was shocked. He had been wondering why this voice was so familiar. It turned out that it was Brother Lu, Sister Lu's husband. It was a little unbelievable.
Xia Ding and the others, who were not far away, also heard Brother Lu's words. Xia Ding murmured, "Oh my god, is it really Brother Lu? Is he some hidden master?"
Qin Ran and Lin Su were also very shocked. They did not expect it to be Brother Lu. At this moment, their thoughts were similar to Qin Sheng and Xia Ding's. They did not expect Brother Lu, who only knew how to cook, to be a hidden master. They did not doubt Brother Lu's strength at all. If he was not strong, he would naturally not get involved in such a situation. Otherwise, it would be equivalent to courting death.
Niu Er was full of vigor after the hearty battle just now. He was determined to eat tonight's prey. This was his last business, and he would never let the prey fly away just like that. No one could stop him. Whoever dared to stop him, he would kill that person, regardless of whether he was a real chef or a fake chef.
"Well, let me see which is better, your kitchen knife or my machete." Niuer sneered. Then he raised his machete again and rushed to this new opponent. He did not like to be so long-winded. He only enjoyed the process of killing and the pleasure of killing his opponent.
Brother Lu was the same. Simply put, if you could fight, don't talk. Those who talked were not capable. They were not dating, so there was no need to talk so much nonsense.
The two of them fought in an instant. One machete, the other kitchen knife. The moment the two knives collided, there were brilliant sparks.
Qin Sheng finally let out a long sigh of relief. If it were not for Brother Lu's introduction at the beginning, he would not be able to leave tonight.
Lin Su had already come back to her senses. She did not care about Niuer and Brother Lu who were already fighting. She broke free from Xia Ding and ran to Qin Sheng without hesitation. This time, Xia Ding did not stop her. When she walked closer, she found that Qin Sheng was covered in blood. It showed how dangerous the fight just now was. Lin Su, who had always been strong, suddenly burst into tears and said with red eyes, "Honey, how are you?"
Of course, Qin Sheng did not feel good at this time. No one would feel good after being beaten and bleeding all over. But he did not want to make Lin Su worry, so he said with a smile, "Just some minor injuries. It's not the first time. It's okay."
At the other end of the alley, Chang Baji and Niu Lang were fighting. Chang Baji finally gained the upper hand. Although he was injured by Niu Lang's scimitar, it was not a big deal. Niu Lang was still making a final struggle, but the scimitar in his hand had already disappeared.
Originally, he thought that this vote was in the bag. He only needed to delay Chang Baji. Anyway, he certainly couldn't kill Chang Baji, and Chang Baji couldn't kill him in a short time. As long as Niu Er succeeded, it would be enough. After all, those people were the real masters.
However, when the strange man suddenly appeared and made trouble, Niuer felt that he was in danger. Maybe he would die here. After all, this was Shanghai, and they had a time limit. They could not be unscrupulous.
