"Drive there."
Without the slightest hesitation, Lu Rang decisively took her hand.
"If we take the highway, it should take about one night to get there. We should be able to get there before the weather gets worse."
"good."
Shang Wu nodded; this was the only option now.
Lu Rangrang's assistant immediately drove the car to the airport.
The two quickly changed course and drove onto the highway.
Lu Rang drove, and Shang Wu sat in the passenger seat, looking out at the thick fog that seemed impossible to dispel. Her mood was as gloomy and depressed as the weather.
She tried hard to recall every moment she spent with Zhou Yanci, attempting to find any fragments that might be related to the winery, but to no avail.
Just as the car left the city, Lu Rang's phone rang.
It was Aying calling.
"Mr. Lu, have you left?"
Aying's voice sounded anxious and helpless.
"It's already on its way, what's wrong?"
"Miss Cheng Keke came to the studio just now, saying she wanted to see President Shang or you. I told her you had an urgent matter and went out, but she didn't believe me and insisted on barging in. She even asked me if you two went on vacation together..."
Aying's tone was full of annoyance, "I really couldn't hold back anymore, so I told her to stop bothering you. You and President Shang have a very good relationship. This time you're going back to President Shang's hometown for important business, not to play around..."
Lu Rang's brows furrowed instantly: "You told her to go back to Lincheng?"
"I just blurted it out, hoping to make her give up..." Ah Ying realized that she might have said too much.
Just then, Shang Wu, who was behind the car, seemed to see something.
She asked hesitantly, "Lu Rang, was that blue sports car following us from the city center the whole time?"
Lu Rang glanced at the rearview mirror and, sure enough, saw a very eye-catching bright blue sports car following behind at a distance that was neither too close nor too far.
Driving a convertible in this weather?
A flicker of doubt crossed his mind.
Ah Ying on the other end of the phone had obviously heard Shang Wu's words and immediately exclaimed in surprise.
"A blue sports car? Oh no! Mr. Lu, that could be Cheng Keke! She came to the studio in a brand new blue sports car before!"
Almost simultaneously, the blue sports car suddenly accelerated, attempting to overtake them and drive alongside them.
The car window rolled down, and Cheng Keke, wearing exaggerated sunglasses and with her hair disheveled by the wind, excitedly waved to them.
"What a coincidence! You're going out too? Where are you headed?"
Lu Rang's face instantly turned ashen.
Shang Wu also felt a headache coming on. This Cheng Keke is really a persistent ghost!
Lu Rang slowed down and rolled down the window, and a cold wind mixed with moisture rushed into the car.
His voice was colder than the weather outside.
"Cheng Keke, turn back immediately and don't follow us."
"Why? Lincheng isn't yours! I've been wanting to go visit Lincheng anyway! It'll be nice if we go together, we can keep each other company!"
Cheng Keke completely ignored Lu Rang's cold face, talking to herself and even smiling smugly.
"That little assistant of mine, Aying, tried to lie to me. Humph, she let it slip as soon as I asked her a few questions! Trying to get rid of me? No way!"
“We’re not going out to play. We have serious business to attend to and it’s dangerous. You should go back immediately,” Shang Wu tried to persuade her, even though she knew the chances were slim.
"I'd be even more eager to go if there's danger! I can help! I promise I won't cause any trouble!"
Cheng Keke made a firm promise, treating this trip as a thrilling adventure game.
Lu Rang completely lost his patience, slammed the car window shut, and stepped on the gas to accelerate, trying to shake her off.
However, in such foggy weather, it is not advisable to drive too fast on the highway.
Moreover, Cheng Keke's sports car had excellent performance, and her driving skills were also quite good; she relentlessly pursued them.
Lu Rang was on edge, trying to balance safety with getting rid of this clingy person, and his mood was at its worst.
As Shang Wu watched the blue sports car relentlessly pursuing them from behind, her uneasy premonition grew stronger.
The threat from Qi Yan has not yet been resolved, and now there's another troublesome character, Cheng Keke.
This trip to Lincheng is unlikely to go smoothly.
