After hanging up Du Xiaoyu's call, Lu Tao immediately rushed to Dalong Town and took a minibus to the county.
At a stop near O 'Neal Hotel, Lu Tao asked the driver to stop. He then got out of the car with a bag and walked to a zebra crossing, ready to cross the road.
Before crossing the zebra crossing, he habitually looked to the left and right. The cars on the road were relatively far away from him, so he walked along the zebra crossing to the opposite side.
When he walked to the middle of the zebra crossing, Lu Tao inadvertently glanced at the opposite side. About five meters away from the zebra crossing, a car without a license plate had just started and was slowly driving toward him.
Lu Tao thought that the car was waiting for him to cross the zebra crossing, so he quickened his pace and walked toward the opposite side. However, just as he quickened his pace, the slowly moving car suddenly sped up and crashed into him at lightning speed.
At the moment when he and the car were about to collide, the agile Lu Tao suddenly kicked the ground with the tip of his foot. His body rose high above the front of the car, avoiding the fatal impact. Then, he kicked the front cover of the car with the tip of his foot, making a beautiful "Sparrow Flip" in the air. His body was slanted over the front of the car, and he stood steadily on the side of the road.
The moment he landed on the ground, the car whizzed past him and disappeared after turning a corner.
Several passers-by on the sidewalk witnessed this thrilling scene. They looked at Lu Tao, who was unscathed, and couldn't believe their eyes.
Although Lu Tao had dodged the bullet with his powerful martial arts and agile reflexes, he was still in a cold sweat. He stood on the side of the road for a moment and wanted to chase after the car. But on second thought, he gave up. When the car passed by him, its speed was at least 100 kilometers per hour. Moreover, it did not slow down when it turned. Obviously, it was running at full speed. Lu Tao would not be able to catch up with it.
Moreover, he had just noticed that the car had no license plate, and it had suddenly accelerated and hit him at the zebra crossing. Obviously, it was intentional. Judging from this, it was a premeditated murder. Someone wanted to create a "traffic accident" to kill him! Fortunately, he had quick reflexes and nimble reflexes. If it had been anyone else, they would have been knocked into the air and died …
After pondering for a moment, Lu Tao took out his phone and was about to call the police. However, before he could dial, Du Xiaoyu called and told him the number of the private room, urging him to hurry over.
Lu Tao replied that he was already near the hotel and would be there in five minutes. After hanging up the phone, he decided not to call the police. In a situation like just now, he was not injured, and he did not remember the license plate number of the other party, so calling the police would not be of much use. Although he suspected that this incident was set up by someone, he didn't have any evidence to prove it. If the police station sent him to record a statement, he wouldn't even be able to eat with Du Xiaoyu …
A few minutes later, Lu Tao walked into Room 311 of the O 'Neal Hotel's seafood building. Seeing Du Xiaoyu sitting there alone, he asked with a smile, "Xiaoyu, are you alone? Why don't you ask your best friend or your high school and middle school classmates to join us? It's not easy to order dishes when two people are eating together! "
Du Xiaoyu smiled and said, "You may not know this, but I transferred to the provincial capital to study after I finished primary school. I rarely come back, so I don't have any good classmates or friends here. If there's anyone, it's only you who's half from my hometown."
"Then what about your family? You can invite your parents or brothers and sisters to eat together. I remember that last time when you borrowed a million yuan from Lin Susu, you asked your eldest sister to help you. You can invite her over now, and I can thank her in person! "
Du Xiaoyu was annoyed and said, "Are you inviting me or my relatives to eat together? If you think it's awkward to eat alone with me, then call your friends over. I have no objections. "
Lu Tao hurriedly explained with a smile, "Xiaoyu, you misunderstood! I have good intentions. I think that since you only come back to the peach forest once in a while, you must have a lot of relatives and friends that you want to meet. I can use this opportunity to gather and chat with them. I don't think it's awkward to eat alone with you. In fact, I feel honored and happy to be able to eat alone with a beauty like you! "
Du Xiaoyu giggled and glanced at him charmingly, "You're handsome and have a sweet mouth. No wonder Sister Susu and the daughter of the provincial party secretary are so in love with you. Oh right, you and Chen? How's your relationship going? When is your wedding banquet? "
Lu Tao did not want to tell Chen that he and Chen had cut off their relationship. He told her that he had cut off all contact with her, so he replied vaguely, "We are still the same. If you want to attend my wedding, I reckon you won't be able to wait until then, haha!"
Du Xiaoyu stared at him and asked, "What's the same as before? Have you guys confirmed your relationship? "
Lu Tao was forced into a corner by her and could not be vague anymore. He could only answer truthfully, "No. I told you before. We're just ordinary classmates, and we've never officially dated. It's still the same even now. "
Du Xiaoyu revealed a trace of joy on her face and nodded, "Actually, I also feel that you guys aren't suitable for each other. Firstly, you guys are too far away, and it's not easy for you guys to meet. Unless she immediately uses her father's authority to transfer you to the provincial capital, it's hard for a long-distance relationship like this to work. Secondly, your status is too different. Although I don't agree with the view that two people have to be of equal status to get together, if the difference in family conditions, social status, and economic strength is too great, there will be many conflicts and problems. "
She hesitated for a moment before raising her head to look at Lu Tao and asked, "I want to ask you, Chen? Have her parents seen you? What's their attitude towards you? "
Lu Tao was stunned for a moment and asked back, "Why are you suddenly asking this?"
Chen? Du Xiaoyu smiled sweetly, "I have a feeling that Chen? Her parents probably won't like you being their son-in-law, especially her mother. She'll probably object to you being her boyfriend. Why? Because I have a few friends in the provincial capital, and they're also the daughters of high-ranking officials. Their mothers have high expectations for their daughters to find a boyfriend, and they have strict expectations for the man in terms of appearance, character, family background, education, and income.
