Chapter 144 Chase and Escape

Chapter 144 Chase and Escape

Chapter 144 Chase and Escape

Zhou Ran stayed by Xia Chenggan's side for several days.

I didn't eat well or sleep well.

Now that he's awake, he doesn't need to stay by his side.

He went straight back to the villa and took a quick shower.

I threw myself onto the soft, big bed.

She pulled over the soft cushions around her and wrapped herself up in them.

I closed my eyes, intending to fall asleep.

When you're really tired, it's hard to fall asleep right away.

Zhou Ran closed her eyes, but her mind was far from at rest.

A message that had been sent back flashed through my mind.

Some are from a long time ago, and some are from now.

One by one, they flashed through my mind.

Suddenly, a message stuck in my head.

He seems to have forgotten someone.

They found that middleman back then.

The man in the abandoned factory—Leng Anhe

Leng Anhe is ruthless and intelligent.

He had been He Xin's subordinate for so many years.

He is the person who knows He Xin's affairs best.

Zhou Ran had people investigate him in order to find out He Xin's whereabouts.

This allows us to guess his next plan and prepare accordingly.

Later, the plan was brought forward.

They confronted He Xin beforehand.

Force out the world's consciousness, then kill him to prevent future troubles.

Later, it seems his name wasn't on the list of those targeted for confiscation.

I just don't know if Leng Anhe is a fake name.

This person has escaped; will they still use this name?

Zhou Ran hurriedly got up and called Qiu Jing, asking her to find someone.

Having a rival lurking in the shadows and plotting against you is always unsettling.

Hopefully, Leng Anhe is the person behind this.

Otherwise, he would have to rack his brains to find that person.

After giving instructions, Zhou Ran lay back down on the bed and fell asleep quickly this time.

Xia Chenggan, on the other hand, wasn't so lucky. He couldn't sleep and had a headache.

His parents came to see him.

From their few words, Xia Chenggan basically knew what had happened.

The most important thing now is to keep Zhou Ran under control.

Then they caught the person who was causing trouble behind the scenes.

Zhou Ran's first action was not because Xia Chenggan was love-struck.

It was because he discovered that Zhou Ran was a very important person.

This importance is not only reflected in his feelings for Zhou Ran.

More importantly, Zhou Ran knows many things that others don't.

Moreover, Zhou Ran is very smart; he has the ability and means to solve his current predicament.

Emotionally, it is the most important thing.

Even after weighing the pros and cons, it remains an important entity.

Xia Chenggan had no choice but to capture such a person.

He immediately ordered people to investigate Zhou Ran's whereabouts and keep a close eye on her.

If it weren't for the doctor preventing him from being discharged.

Xia Chenggan wished he could just get out of bed and go find someone.

He fled, he chased, and he couldn't escape even if he had wings.

Hearing that Zhou Ran had gone home to rest, Xia Chenggan breathed a sigh of relief and began to plan what to do next.

There are conspiracies and schemes going on here.

On the other hand, a forced sadomasochistic relationship has begun.

Yin Zhihui has been found.

You may plant flowers with care, but they may not bloom; you may plant willows without intention, and they may thrive.

Since Yin Zhihui disappeared.

The Zhou Dynasty mobilized all the forces it could.

They even went so far as to ask others for help.

All in order to find Yin Zhihui's whereabouts.

But he searched every corner he could find.

They even went to Yin Zhihui's house.

The person has still not been found.

Yin Zhihui's greedy parents.

They demanded a large sum of money, but provided false clues.

The Zhou dynasty's attempts to seize the opportunity repeatedly failed.

Despite being physically and mentally exhausted, they still did not give up the search.

Everyone says that the heir of the Zhou family has gone mad.

He would turn the world upside down for a woman.

This matter was initially kept from Zhao Feng.

Who knew that the board members would see him neglecting his duties and not taking care of the company?

They were worried that if this continued, the company would be dragged down.

They bypassed him and went straight to Zhao Feng.

Zhao Feng has no other redeeming qualities.

I just love money.

He chose the Zhou Dynasty because it could bring him enormous benefits.

I heard that Zhou Chao was heartbroken over a woman.

He went directly to Zhou Chao and beat him up.

And threats.

If Zhou Chao continues to search for Yin Zhihui.

They revoked his status as heir, leaving him with nothing.

This threat is very useful.

The Zhou family's shares are basically controlled by Zhao Feng.

The Zhou Dynasty's status was awkward.

If he weren't Zhao Feng's biological son.

In addition, he has always had outstanding work ability since childhood.

Zhao Feng is ruthless and calculating; he's really not cut out to be a CEO.

The position of president no longer belongs to Zhou Chao.

As Zhao Feng's other illegitimate children grew up.

The position of the Zhou Dynasty also began to waver.

The search for Yin Zhihui was the trigger.

The Zhou Dynasty was besieged on all sides and found itself in a predicament.

He had to give up searching for Yin Zhihui's whereabouts.

Go back to school and resume normal classes to maintain a good image in front of the board of directors.

In front of Zhao Feng, she acted like an obedient little girl.

The Zhou Dynasty knew this clearly.

If this Zhou family is not his Zhou family.

He will continue to hinder us like he did that day.

He turned his search for Yin Zhihui from overt to covert.

Using various means, they began to take control of the Zhou family.

He has that ability.

He didn't act before simply because the Zhou family wasn't his.

He knew perfectly well that he and Zhao Feng were both thieves.

They despicably seized things from the Zhou family.

Zhou Ran is the true heir.

Zhou Ran posed no threat before.

With Zhou Ran's abilities, she could take everything back at any time.

One day, Zhou Ran will kick them all out.

With this awareness, Zhou Chao had already set up a new company of his own outside.

These days, my mind is focused on that.

The Zhou family is merely maintaining a facade of operation.

Now Zhao Feng is forcing him.

Zhou Ran again showed an indifferent attitude towards the Zhou family.

Zhou Chaosheng harbored some ambition.

He quickly laid out his plans and began to seize power quietly.

He quickly seized control of Zhou's shares and turned the shareholders against him.

Only after finally escaping the control of her scumbag father did she breathe a sigh of relief.

The only disappointment is that there is still no news about Yin Zhihui.

As their business expanded, they began to collaborate with Shaw Brothers.

This collaboration signifies that the Zhou family will take another step forward.

Everyone on the board was watching this.

This was also the first time the Zhou Dynasty had completely seized power, and an important collaboration thereafter.

The Zhou Dynasty had no choice but to temporarily put everything aside.

He took people to Shaw Brothers' headquarters to discuss cooperation.

The Shaw family was more powerful than the Zhou family, and could be considered a second-tier powerful family.

The Zhou Dynasty adopted a very humble attitude.

We arrived an hour early with our group.

Their collaboration went very smoothly.

Shaw did not make any excessive demands.

Once their legal team confirmed the contract was in order, they signed it.

After the contract was signed, as they were leaving downstairs...

Yin Zhihui appeared before Zhou Chao just like that.

Yin Zhihui went to pick up some documents that day and returned to the lobby on the first floor.

Just then, Zhou Chao and his entourage were escorted out by Shao's secretary.

Their eyes met, and there was no way to avoid it.

Yin Zhihui stood frozen in place, clutching the documents.

She was trembling with fear.

How could this be? How could the Zhou Dynasty appear here at this time?

Zhou Chao looked over indifferently, as if he hadn't noticed Yin Zhihui at all.

Continue walking outwards.

Yin Zhihui watched Zhou Chao leave.

The tension I felt earlier has eased.

Thank goodness, he didn't recognize me.

Compared to her previous thinness, Yin Zhihui has gained a lot of weight recently.

My face has gotten fuller.

The previous listless mood was completely swept away.

With the help of makeup,

She really seems like a completely different person now.

It's normal that you didn't recognize them.

Yin Zhihui comforted herself, and with a reminder from the receptionist, she snapped out of her daze and ran to the elevator to go upstairs to deliver the documents.

Yin Zhihui was somewhat absent-minded all afternoon.

Her colleagues asked her about it, and she said she wasn't feeling well.

They refused the suggestion to go to the hospital.

After working until the end of the day, Yin Zhihui quickly packed her things and left the company.

I dragged my tired body back to my rented room.

She collapsed onto the sofa, her mind replaying the scene of meeting Zhou Chao that day.

That person has an extremely strong desire for control.

If he finds himself, he'll probably lock himself up again!

"Knock knock!"

Who is it?

"The property management company."

Yin Zhihui stood up from the sofa and went to open the door.

The property management company notified us these past two days that they need to inspect the water pipes.

I've notified her several times, but she's always busy and not home.

Yin Zhihui was uneasy, so she became a little careless.

Without any suspicion, they opened the door.

Then she saw the face that terrified her.

Yin Zhihui quickly closed the door.

However, they were not as quick as the Zhou Dynasty.

Zhou Chao held the door shut and pushed it open forcefully.

He grabbed Yin Zhihui by the neck and squeezed hard.

The suffocation caused Yin Zhihui's face to turn red quickly.

Yin Zhihui desperately scratched at Zhou Chao's hand, trying to break free from his grip.

The devilish whispers of the Zhou Dynasty reached my ears.

"You won't escape me, not even a chance!"

Yin Zhihui quickly fainted due to suffocation.

Zhou Chao gestured for his bodyguard to wait in the car. He then slammed the door shut.

Put Yin Zhihui on the sofa.

He inspected Yin Zhihui's home.

Like a lion patrolling its territory.

"What a shabby house."

The room, which is over 40 square meters, has been divided into a bedroom and a living room.

It was piled high with all sorts of daily necessities.

The house isn't even as big as their toilet.

This woman desperately tried to leave him, so she moved to this garbage place.

I really don't understand what she's thinking.

Zhou Chao inspected all the places.

He casually put Yin Zhihui's room key into his pocket.

He sat back on the sofa and picked up his phone from the coffee table.

He grabbed Yin Zhihui's hand and unlocked the device using her fingerprint.

He wanted to see what Yin Zhihui's life was like after she left him.

When Yin Zhihui woke up.

She saw Zhou Chao looking at her phone.

Yin Zhihui rushed over to try and snatch the phone back.

Zhou Chao was an extremely controlling person.

He will not allow normal interactions.

My phone contains a lot of important information and data.

We cannot allow the Zhou Dynasty to be destroyed.

Zhou Chao pushed the person back onto the sofa.

Approaching, amidst Yin Zhihui's terrified gaze.

Is this the life you want?

"A home like a pigsty, backstabbing colleagues, a sleazy boss, endless work, and never-ending overtime?"

"The life you want is truly eye-opening."

This blatant humiliation left Yin Zhihui speechless.

She was a lowly, menial worker in the company.

There are always a lot of troubles outside of work.

Especially her boss, who expressed his affection for her from the very beginning.

Furthermore, he abused his position to cause her a lot of trouble.

Compared to the comfortable life they enjoyed while serving the Zhou Dynasty.

Her life right now is indeed a complete mess.

But she did it willingly.

At least she is free now.

I am not anyone's canary, nor anyone's plaything.

You won't be locked in a basement to reflect on your actions for angering your unpredictable employer.

This is the freedom she begged for.

She found it delightful. Author's Note: Thank you to my mentor 9492239 (9492239) for your support! For more exciting content, please leave a message for this book on Liancheng Reading.
