Chapter 353 Falling into the River
"It seems that the car following us earlier was just a coincidence." Tang Bai continued walking quickly, trying to increase the distance between them as much as possible. "Otherwise, when the car in front crashed into us, this one would have accelerated and rushed towards us."
If both vehicles are facing them from both the front and rear, there will likely be some minor scrapes or bumps unless something serious happens.
Jiang Ruan felt the same way.
Just then, my phone started vibrating with an incoming call.
She slid the answer button and said, "Hello."
"Miss Jiang, the car following you now is part of the same group as the people who were driving in the wrong direction and tried to hit you earlier." Lin Bei spoke quickly, worried that something might happen if he was too slow. "Please be careful."
Jiang Ruan didn't want the other party to worry too much: "I've shaken them off for now."
Lin Bei: "??"
If he remembers correctly, that car kept accelerating, and the map showed several turns ahead. Did it really shake him off like that?
Before he could even ask questions, Jiang Ruan asked, "How did you know?"
"I..." Lin Bei stammered, trying to brush it off.
Is it called covert protection? But following someone without permission could also be called stalking.
I said I was just passing through on business. This area is basically Qin family territory, and the BOSS has no business dealings with the Qin family.
"Were those people following us earlier yours?" Jiang Ruan hadn't considered that it was him, since she had seen that the person had long black hair.
Lin Bei paused.
Realizing that her decorative wig had saved her life, she immediately came to her senses: "I sent someone over there to take care of something, and it just so happened that we ran into your car. Don't worry, I've had someone call the police over there, so you don't need to worry about it."
"Thank you," Jiang Ruan said simply, adding before hanging up, "Please tell Huo Zhizhou to play the role of a stranger."
Lin Bei breathed a sigh of relief: "Okay..."
Jiang Ruan took the phone away from her ear, preparing to hang up.
She knew that Huo Zhizhou must have asked Lin Bei to arrange this, so she didn't say much to him.
At that very moment.
A person who was casually standing on the side of the road to the left suddenly darted out and crossed the road at a fast speed. Tang Bai, who was focused on driving, did not expect this action and immediately stepped on the brake and turned the steering wheel slightly to the right.
*Sizzle*
The screeching sound of brakes rang out.
The car was forced to stop on the side of the road.
Tang Bai rolled down his car window, about to say a few words to the other person, when he saw the Bluetooth headset on the other person's ear and his whole body tensed up. He immediately stepped on the gas and was about to leave when the other person ran up to his car and blocked his way.
at the same time.
The car he had previously shaken off caught up with him, and even though they were about to collide, he showed no intention of slowing down.
"Bang!"
A loud bang!
Jiang Ruan and her group's car was knocked off the guardrail and plunged rapidly into the river.
As he plummeted downwards, Tang Bai noticed people standing or sitting every twenty meters or so ahead of him. In that instant, he knew it was a meticulously planned scheme to kill Jiang Ruan.
"Mo Mo!" In a flash, Tang Baifa quickly opened the sunroof of the car. "Take the boss and leave first..."
He hadn't finished speaking.
The car crashed heavily into the water.
It created a huge splash!
The rushing river was pulling the car toward the waterfall, and water kept pouring into the car from outside.
"There's a waterfall about two kilometers ahead. At this rate, we'll be swept away in less than twenty minutes." Tang Bai quickly unbuckled his seatbelt. Having looked at the map, his mind was rational. "We must leave as soon as possible."
Mo Mo simply helped Jiang Ruan onto the skylight, asking as she did so, "Are you good swimmers?"
Even good swimmers can get into trouble in such a fast-flowing river; it would be even more difficult for those who aren't good swimmers.
Tang Bai replied without changing his expression, "Alright."
Mo Mo glanced at him subconsciously.
Jiang Ruan noticed this subtle movement, but the tight schedule didn't give her much time to chat or think. The most urgent thing was for everyone to get out of the car first, otherwise it would be terrible if the water flooded in.
Their every move was being watched by those above.
A man got out of the black car, dressed in black and wearing sunglasses, and gave off a very serious vibe: "Call them over there, you can start now."
The person who stopped the car: "Yes."
"The orders from above are that those three cannot leave alive." The man in black spoke in a deep voice, his face filled with ruthlessness. "Otherwise, you will be the ones who disappear."
"Understood," the person who stopped the car quickly replied.
At the same time.
Lin Bei was still calling out on his phone, "Miss Jiang?!"
"Miss Jiang?"
How are you?
"Has something happened?"
"Beep beep beep—"
The call was interrupted.
Lin Bei frowned, guessing that something had most likely happened.
Although he couldn't hear the voices clearly over the phone, he could vaguely hear sounds of collisions and the bodyguard from Miss Jiang mentioning Mo Mo and the boss leaving.
He glanced at the river.
Don't fall!
When the driver in the driver's seat saw him making a phone call, he raised his hand to report the situation to the other end using a Bluetooth headset. Before his hand could even touch the headset, Lin Bei raised his hand and knocked him unconscious.
The police will handle this if he's here, and even if his companions take him away, the boss will find a way to resolve the situation later.
The most urgent task is to confirm whether Ms. Jiang has been in trouble.
As he got into the car, he dialed Huo Zhizhou's number: "Boss, something's happened on Nanwan Avenue..."
Time passed by, bit by bit.
Five minutes passed quickly.
When Lin Bei arrived at the section of road where Jiang Ruan and the others had their accident, everyone there had left, leaving only the broken guardrail.
He looked down along the guardrail, but could see nothing but the rushing river below. Trees on both sides of the river blocked his view, making it impossible for him to determine if a car had fallen in.
But this mark.
It's probably very close to the truth.
Jiang Ruan, Mo Mo, and Tang Bai were all on the roof of the car. They saw that there was a person holding a knife standing about 20 meters apart on both sides of the riverbank. Tang Bai and Mo Mo understood everything.
A very meticulous plan.
They even arranged several more events in case the plan failed.
He now suspects that if they drive straight through without fear of injuring or killing people, there might be other plans, plans three, four, or five waiting ahead.
As it turns out.
Yes, there are still some.
If Li Chengxuan wants to kill someone, he will plan many steps.
We failed to deal with Li Zhishen and Qin An back then, we can't afford to fail again with their daughter.
"Boss, Jiang Ruan and the others will be at the waterfall in about ten minutes." The secretary came to Li Chengxuan and reported the situation. "There are people on both sides of the shore, which can ensure that they will be taken care of before they get ashore."
"Very good." Li Chengxuan poured himself a cup of tea, very slowly and deliberately.
Whether Li Zhishen's shares are given to someone else, or to the current CEO of the Li Group, they absolutely cannot fall into Jiang Ruan's hands.
He has plenty of ways to take it back and keep it in his own hands if others take it, but he will never be able to get Jiang Ruan in his lifetime.
"Besides, it seems Huo Zhizhou already knows about this." The secretary hesitated as she spoke, clearly feeling guilty. "He's sending people to Jiang Ruan's side."
