Chapter 15 "Boss Shen, there's news." Qin Ying rushed in after answering the phone, looking grim...
"Boss Shen, there's news." After Qin Ying answered the phone, she rushed in and reported to Chen Zheng with a grim expression.
"Chen Tingyu's people sent a message saying that Miss Xia is in their hands now, and they want us to withdraw all the shares we have acquired in the past few days before tomorrow morning, and give up 10% of the profits. Otherwise, Miss Xia might..." Qin Ying paused, and suddenly she didn't dare to look at Chen Zheng's expression at this time.
"The voice on the other end of the line was very noisy. There was music mixed with screams, and there were also a few voices that they specifically asked us to listen to - Miss Xia's voice. It sounded like it, but we couldn't be sure."
"Do as he says, have someone prepare immediately. Contact the technicians and locate the address." Chen Zheng closed her eyes, raised her eyes and said decisively. Her tense face and straight back seemed no different from her usual vigorous instructions in the conference room, except that her clenched fists were trembling a little.
"They'd better do what they say. Otherwise, every member of the Shen family will be killed. They will all be chopped into pieces and fed to the dogs." Chen Zheng narrowed her eyes slightly, her gaze was stern and piercing, and she said in a steady voice.
At the command, the entire Xia family moved. Chen Zheng pursed her lips and looked at the people coming and going. She put on a black windbreaker, hid her trembling hands in the wide sleeves, and stood straight behind the technicians.
She suddenly couldn't imagine a life without Xia Yu.
"What's the noise outside?" Gu Xiwen lay lazily on the sofa, raising her chin like a beauty. She seemed to be disturbed by the crackling noise outside. A trace of annoyance flashed between her brows, and she asked casually.
The assistant quietly left the room and soon reported respectfully: "Looking back at Mr. Gu, Mr. Shen's stepdaughter and Shen Tingyu met here for some reason and are now fighting. Neither side wants to offend the other, so there's a bit of a row going on at the bar."
"Oh," Gu Xiwen became interested when she heard that, she stood up and asked with interest: "Who won the fight? The little beauty didn't beat Shen Tingyu into a pig's head, did she? Then I have to go out and see it for myself. The eldest grandson of the Shen family~" She stretched out her tone and said in a sarcastic tone.
What she hated most were those old guys in the Shen family, who looked down on her when they talked business with her. She would get rid of them sooner or later.
"No, Miss Xia is alone, frail, and is now being chased by Shen Tingyu's men. I don't know how long she can hold on."
Gu Xiwen raised her eyebrows in surprise. Hey, according to Chen Zheng's domineering and tough personality, there are things that are beyond her control. It's wrong to indulge the little beauty so much without arranging some good hands around her.
She thought about the current power struggle in the Shen family, and her eyes curled up like a fox stealing fish. Chen Zheng must be dying of anxiety now.
With such a good opportunity, of course he had to give her a good beating. Gu Xiwen smiled and called Chen Zheng.
"Speak." A low voice slowly floated into Gu Xiwen's ears, with a hint of anger.
Knowing that Chen Zheng was anxious, Gu Xiwen did not keep her in suspense. After explaining the situation here in a few words, he took advantage of the situation and said:
"Give me 10% and I'll protect the little beauty until you come. How about that?"
"Deal," Chen Zheng hung up the phone and ordered vigorously:
"Everything in the company remains the same as before. Don't let him find out anything unusual. Qin Ying, take all the people and follow me."
One after another, the black-clad bodyguards got into the cars in a well-trained manner. Countless black cars rushed out like a black torrent, driving madly towards their destination.
Gu Xiwen led his men out of the private room and rushed to the fight scene.
Under the flickering lights, the bar was in a mess. Tables and chairs were tilted, broken glass was scattered all over the floor, and the air was filled with a strong aroma of alcohol.
Xia Yu was like an agile little black cat. He used various objects in the hotel as cover, dodging left and right, and skillfully shuttled among the ferocious thugs. It was as if he had turned on a cheat and seemed to be able to calculate the thugs' attack routes in advance.
Xia Yu wiped the sweat that was about to drip into his eyes. In the dim light, his eyes were dazzling, proud and fearless. What emerged in his mind was the best escape route obtained by the system after careful calculation and the approximate location of the next thug.
After waiting for a while, when the crowd had almost dispersed, she followed the route given by the system to leave the bar. Now there were too many people at the door, and she was afraid that the thugs would attack her indiscriminately in order to catch her.
The proud little princess always took personal responsibility for her own actions, and she had never let innocent people suffer. She couldn't afford to lose face.
Oh, the little beauty is quite skilled and seems to be able to handle it with ease. We don't really need her help. So she is undeserving of the 10%. She should return it to Chen Zheng.
Gu Xiwen watched from the side for a while, and seeing that Xia Yu did not make a single mistake, he did not step forward to snatch the little beauty's score.
She could brag about her record of walking through a sea of flowers without getting a single leaf on her body for the rest of her life. Besides, she was radiating energy, which was still dazzling even in the dark, so she didn't go up to him to cause trouble.
Suddenly I felt a little envious of Chen Zheng.
Seeing that most of the people in the bar had been evacuated, the entrance was empty and spacious. Xia Yu dodged left and right and drove quickly towards the door according to the route given by the system. He was only a few steps away from the door.
The crisp gunshot was like a thunder, and the bullet flew out with a whistling sound, attacking Xia Yu's shoulder.
Almost at the moment when the old man took out his gun, the system's sharp alarm sounded in Xia Yu's mind: "Host! Get down! Get down!"
At the critical moment, Xia Yu's feet slipped, and he squatted down, rolling behind a metal signboard more than 11 meters high. The bullet almost grazed the corner of his clothes. His heart was beating violently in his chest, and Xia Yu's breathing became more rapid.
The old man was surprised to see Xia Yu actually dodge it, then slowly approached her with the gun raised, and tried to persuade her earnestly: "We sincerely invite Miss Xia to be our guest, so don't refuse. Otherwise, the next shot won't be on the shoulder."
Gu Xiwen looked at the one-sided situation and took a step forward. Before he could speak, the old man immediately fired a shot into the air and warned him sternly: "This is our Shen family's family affair. Young Gu, please don't get involved. After all, guns don't recognize people."
All the old guys in the Shen family deserve to die, Gu Xiwen cursed inwardly, looking at the dark entrance of the cave, she slowly backed away.
"Host, the system has calculated it carefully countless times, and the host's escape rate is 0. With the host's physical fitness, he can't outrun the bullets. Let's surrender. At worst, we will break two ribs. The system will block the pain, so we can save our lives first."
Now it's not a matter of ribs or not. The hero in the novel acted like that because Xia Yu pissed him off, and Chen Zheng didn't look down on her, so he just beat her and left her here.
Now the power struggle in the Shen family has reached a fever pitch. They saw that Chen Zheng cared about her and wanted to use her to threaten Chen Zheng.
She must not fall into their hands.
Xia Yu gritted his teeth and carefully poked his head out. The old man stood leisurely with a gun in hand not far from the iron sign, shooting at the floor around him from time to time to intimidate Xia Yu. He was not in a hurry, as if watching a trapped animal struggling before its death. The ferocious thugs around him slowly approached the sign.
All the exits were blocked by them.
"Miss Xia, are you going to come out on your own, or should we invite you out?" The old man fired a shot at the iron sign and said grimly.
Seeing that the situation could not be changed, Xia Yu pursed her lips and slowly stood up, her hand holding the sign trembling. Then she saw a black hole facing her head.
She opened her mouth and was about to say something when she heard a loud "bang" in her ear. The speeding bullet almost passed by her, and Xia Yu's pupils shook violently.
A shocking bullet hole appeared on the old man's forehead, and blood gushed out of the bullet hole and flowed down his cheek. His body twitched uncontrollably and he fell to the ground with a bang. In the last moments of his life, he muttered intermittently:
"Chen...Chen Zheng..."
Xia Yu suddenly turned around and saw Chen Zheng dressed in black, with her black hair fluttering by her waist in the strong wind. She stood at the door of the bar, holding a gun in her right hand, with smoke coming out of the muzzle.
Behind her, a group of well-equipped bodyguards swarmed in with weapons and attacked the thugs around them with expressionless faces.
Under the flickering light, Chen Zheng's face was hidden in the darkness. Xia Yu couldn't see her expression at all. He could only see her taut jawline and cold black eyes.
Chen Zheng took a step forward and blocked Xia Yu behind her. Her eagle-like eyes coldly scanned the one-sided situation. Then, as if she had found her target, she locked onto Shen Tingyu, who was frightened and shrank to reduce his presence. She curled the corners of her lips coldly, raised her hand, and shot him in the chest through the air.
"Beat him, if he dies, it's mine."
Chen Zheng handed the still smoking gun to Qin Ying, then grabbed Xia Yu's wrist and walked out.
Gu Xiwen looked at their backs and spoke to Qin Ying in an ambiguous manner.
Qin Ying handled the follow-up for Shen Zheng expressionlessly, and explained in a formal way: "Miss Xia is young, and she is Mr. Shen's stepdaughter, so Mr. Shen will take extra care of her on weekdays."
"Care~ So this is the kind of care. The care went on and on, and even went as far as the bed." Gu Xiwen didn't believe this nonsense and gave Qin Ying an expression that everyone understood.
"Boss Gu, be careful with your words."
"I see. It means not yet, but it may not be the case in the future."
Qin Ying opened her mouth, but was speechless for a moment.
"Hey, don't worry about me for now, and stop that guy first. Chen Zheng is probably going crazy now. The little beauty will be scared later." Gu Xiwen pouted at Qin Ying.
Chen Zheng dragged Xia Yu to the private doctor, then stood aside in a depressed mood, silent.
The doctor checked again and again but found no injuries. Chen Zheng nodded to the doctor, grabbed Xia Yu's wrist and walked towards the car. The force was so strong that Xia Yu staggered a few times.
Qin Ying trotted to Chen Zheng's side and called out in a low voice: "Boss Shen, Boss Shen."
Chen Zheng ignored him and continued to move forward at a faster pace.
"Shen Zheng."
Chen Zheng paused, turned around and looked at Qin Ying. Qin Ying looked at Chen Zheng deeply, which meant that she should not do anything that would make her regret.
Noisy. Chen Zheng held Xia Yu's hand a little more gently.
