Morning.
9 am.
In the hotel suite, the four of them sat there quietly and were talking. Beep, beep, beep, beep. The twins' cell phones rang, but it didn't seem to be a phone. One of the sisters took out her cell phone and pressed it. It seemed to be an alarm. Something happened.
Shen Xiaoyan turned to Zhang Longjuan. "Manager Zhang."
Zhang Longjuan nodded. "Yes."
Shen Xiaomei hesitated. "But they said before 12 am …"
Shen Xiaoyan thought for a while and said. "I also think it is not a good time to go out now."
Zhang Longjuan laughed. "Let's just do what we need to do. We don't need to care about them."
After a final discussion, the few of them decided to go out and do their proper business. They packed up their things.
Dong Xuebing knew they are going out for State Security's mission and pretended not to hear anything. They opened the door and left, and Dong Xuebing followed them.
Shen Xiaomei walked to the elevator first.
Shen Xiaoyan followed closely behind Zhang Longjuan and also got into the elevator.
Only Dong Xuebing was walking behind them. His legs are not agile, and he had to limp slowly.
One step …
Three steps …
Five steps …
The three women had been in the elevator for a long time, and Dong Xuebing finally entered. He smiled at them apologetically.
Zhang Longjuan did not mind. "Let me help you."
Dong Xuebing replied. "No need. I am not that weak."
Zhang Longjuan replied. "Ok. Watch your steps. Don't fall."
The elevator doors closed, and Shen Xiaomei looked at Dong Xuebing speechlessly. Just now, they had told Zhang Longjuan that Dong Xuebing could not even run. But now, it seems that they had overestimated this young man. This guy can't even walk? The injury on his leg should not be a normal strain. It looked like his bones were fractured. Wasn't this a little too horrible to look at?
Bodyguard?
How can there be such a pathetic bodyguard?
Have you ever heard of a bodyguard with all his bones broken to protect him? Who is the one protecting whom?! To Shen Xiaomei, Zhang Longjuan is more powerful than Dong Xuebing. Even if Zhang Longjuan does not have any fighting skills, at least he can run. But what about you? Run? You will not be able to run! Fight? Who are you going to fight with your body full of injuries? Before you even touch anyone else, you'll probably injure yourself!
Shen Xiaoyan and Shen Xiaomei did not know what to say.
Ding.
The elevator door opened and they reached the first floor.
There were more people in the hotel lobby than last night. It was busy but not chaotic. It looked very orderly. Most of them were businessmen carrying luggage.
The four of them got out of the elevator.
Zhang Longjuan purposely slowed down and walked slowly behind Dong Xuebing. When Shen Xiaomei saw that CEO Zhang had slowed down, she also slowed down with her sister. Suddenly, Shen Xiaoyan's eyes twitched and looked at the corner of the lobby. She did not say anything and gave her sister a look. Shen Xiaomei nodded and walked out of the hotel. She went to the carpark to check the rental car from top to bottom. After confirming there are no threats and no listening devices, she let Zhang Longjuan, Dong Xuebing, and Zhang Longjuan into the car.
The car was a Mercedes-Benz S Series.
It was black and very eye-catching.
Shen Xiaomei is sitting in the driver's seat, and Shen Xiaoyan is in the back with Zhang Longjuan. Dong Xuebing looked at them and got into the front passenger seat.
In the car, Zhang Longjuan asked. "What's wrong?"
Shen Xiaoyan replied. "Someone is following us in the lobby."
"Yes. How many of them?" Zhang Longjuan asked.
"I noticed at least two of them." Shen Xiaoyan thought for a while and said. "Sister, drive over."
Shen Xiaomei nodded and drove off. But about 10 seconds after they left the carpark, two inconspicuous MVs caught up with them.
"Indeed." Shen Xiaoyan narrowed her eyes. "They are following us."
Zhang Longjuan did not look back. "Let's get on with our business first. Ignore them."
Shen Xiaoyan nodded. "That's all we can do. I will alight first. Manager Zhang, you don't need to go personally. Just lure them away."
"Ok. Take care of yourself."
"Ok. We are only checking in today. There is no danger."
One hour later.
The Mercedes-Benz stopped at a commercial street that Dong Xuebing did not recognize. Shen Xiaoyan alighted and disappeared into the crowd. The car drove off, leading the two cars behind it in circles for fun. About an hour later, the Mercedes-Benz stopped, and Shen Xiaoyan, who had just returned from work, met up with them. Dong Xuebing did not say a word from the beginning to the end. He closed his eyes and did not even ask a single question. The sisters saw Dong Xuebing knows his limits and softened their attitude towards him.
11 pm.
Dong Xuebing's phone rang.
Zhang Longjuan looked at the number and answered.
"Manager Zhang, have you prepared the money?"
"… what do you think?"
"You are not going to pay us?"
"Haha … you can say that."
"Fine. Then don't blame us for not holding back. You will hand over the money obediently. Trust me." The man on the other end sneered and hung up.
Zhang Longjuan reminded. "They are coming."
Shen Xiaomei looked around. "… they are already here."
Dong Xuebing, who was sitting in the front passenger seat, noticed they were sandwiched between the front and back. Zhang Longjuan was on the phone earlier, and the car had stopped by the roadside. There are not many people around, and there are only a few cars on the road. At this time, a business car that had been following them since they left the hotel was parked behind them. In front of them, a truck had circled around and was driving in the opposite direction. Two young men wearing sunglasses were sitting in the truck. It was obvious that they were coming for Zhang Longjuan and the others.
The road is not wide, and there is no way to avoid them.
If they are sandwiched, they will be in trouble!
Shen Xiaomei immediately reversed the car and moved back, trying to find a way to avoid the attack.
But when they moved, the MPV behind them also moved. When the Mercedes-Benz reversed to the left, the MPV turned the steering wheel towards it!
Bam!
The Mercedes-Benz was hit! The rear lights were broken!
The people in the MPV smiled, and the truck stopped not far away.
This collision is not serious, and the Mercedes-Benz can still drive. But it is sandwiched between two cars. The truck had blocked the road, and the MPV was blocking it. There is nowhere for them to go.
Ring … ring … ring … Dong Xuebing's phone rang again.
Zhang Longjuan answered the call through loudspeaker.
That man said. "Manager Zhang, I will say this one last time. 2 million USD for your men."
Zhang Longjuan was still indifferent. She smiled and said, "That depends on whether you have the ability to get it."
"You can't run away now, but you're still so stubborn at this time. I admire your magnanimity. You're indeed Mr. Zhang. I'll give you five more minutes. Once the five minutes are up, I can't guarantee that the truck won't hit you. At that time, money can't solve the problem!"
"Ok. I will be waiting."
"You only have five minutes. Our patience is limited!"
There was no need to say more. Zhang Longjuan hung up the phone. "Did you hear that?"
Shen Xiaoyan frowned. "Sister, try again."
Shen Xiaomei nodded and stepped on the accelerator. She turned to the side and tried to squeeze past the truck. However, the truck was already on fire. It moved and moved, sealing off the road once again. Shen Xiao Mei immediately slammed on the brakes and reversed the car again. She looked for a gap behind them. However, the MPV behind them moved as well. The Mercedes-Benz was blocking the way, not giving them any gap at all.
Shen Xiaomei's face changed. "No chance!"
Shen Xiaoyan had no other choice. "Five minutes is almost up?"
"… yes."
"Get ready! Bring Manager Zhang and Xiao Dong out of the car later! Follow the slope to the road! I will block them! I will meet up with you all later! "
They are prepared to retreat temporarily as the situation is disadvantageous to them.
The Mercedes-Benz is in danger of crashing into two cars, and they do not know how many people are in the car. They cannot take the risk.
But Zhang Longjuan looked at Dong Xuebing. "Xiao Dong?"
Dong Xuebing looked around and said. "I will drive."
Zhang Longjuan looked at Dong Xuebing and laughed. "It will be too embarrassing to run. Is there any other way?"
Dong Xuebing nodded. "Let me try. They are only a group of hooligans. Other than their numbers, they have nothing else."
Shen Xiaoyan frowned. "What do you mean? Why are you driving? The road is blocked, and how are you going to get past them? "She looks at Dong Xuebing's arm and bandages." Also, how are you going to drive? "
Shen Xiaomei stared at Dong Xuebing. "Listen to my sister! Don't cause trouble! "
But Zhang Longjuan said. "Xiaomei, sit beside me and let Xiao Dong drive."
"Manager Zhang! Now is not the time to talk about this! "
"Listen to me and let Xiao Dong try."
In front of them, the truck roared and moved. However, it first reversed far away and retreated a full 100 meters before it suddenly accelerated and rushed toward the Mercedes-Benz. It looked like it was going to run them over.
Shen Xiaomei's face changed. "Hurry up and alight!"
"Manager Zhang! Think carefully! "Shen Xiaoyan was panicking.
Dong Xuebing unfastened his seatbelt and moved to the driver's seat. Shen Xiaomei was furious, but when she saw Zhang Longjuan's expression, she had no choice but to switch seats with Dong Xuebing.
The truck was moving very fast, and it was like a mountain pressing down on them.
The faces of the twins were a little tense. Although they knew that the other party might not dare to bump into them, there was always a chance. No one could say for sure.
But Dong Xuebing was not worried. He held the steering wheel with one hand and stepped on the accelerator.
Just when the twins were wondering how Dong Xuebing is going to get past them, Dong Xuebing accelerated under Shen Xiaomei's and Shen Xiaoyan's shocked gazes!
Dong Xuebing had stepped on the accelerator!
With a boom! The Mercedes-Benz dashed forward!
Dong Xuebing is not heading towards the gap beside the truck! Instead, he charged straight at the truck!!
