Chapter 136 How dare they step on his longevity lock!
Seeing that he was no longer angry, Shen Jingni was relieved.
Actually, tyrants are quite easy to appease.
She decided to be nicer to Zhao Zonglan and try to coax him a little more.
“Brother, although I can’t go on the business trip with you, you can call me anytime. I’ll be available 24/7.”
"Also, remember to wear the longevity lock, as if I'm by your side."
Capitalists are not so easily fooled.
Zhao Zonglan picked her up, like he was carrying a child, supporting her buttocks, and walked towards the bedroom.
"You don't need to be on call 24/7, just be good tonight."
Behave yourself?
By the time Shen Jingni realized what was happening, it was too late.
She struggled in his arms, shouting, "No, no, you have to go on a business trip tomorrow, you need to go to bed early."
She appeared to care about him, but in reality, she was afraid.
Who knows how long he'll need to take to catch up?
Capitalists are shrewd and calculating; they would never allow themselves to suffer a loss.
Zhao Zonglan didn't take it seriously, "It's okay, I can catch up on sleep on the plane."
Shen Jingni: "..."
"Waaaaah... Zhao Zonglan, you're bullying me again~"
"You're wrong, sweetie."
He corrected her in a deep voice: "I'm doing this because I care about you."
...
In the sweltering summer, it gets light early.
Zhao Zonglan got up at six o'clock.
Shen Jingni, still asleep, seemed to sense that the person beside her had left. Her delicate brows furrowed slightly, and she subconsciously reached out her arms for him to hug her.
Zhao Zonglan bent down and kissed her forehead. As far as the eye could see, there were still many ambiguous marks on her fair skin.
His heart skipped a beat, and he couldn't help but kiss the corner of her lips again.
I don't really want to leave.
Her sweet dream was disturbed, and Shen Jingni whimpered impatiently, pushing him away with a hint of temper.
Zhao Zonglan held her hand, helplessly biting the back of her fair hand, before getting up to change his clothes.
Zhoushan is home to Ningbo-Zhoushan Port, the world's largest port, as well as the well-known Putuoshan.
Putuoshan is known as the "Buddhist Kingdom by the Sea and Sky" and includes several 5A-level scenic spots such as Puji Temple and Huiji Temple, which are very popular with worshippers.
The head of the petrochemical base, along with several senior executives, came to welcome Zhao Zonglan.
By evening, the cooperation was almost finalized.
The person in charge sincerely invited Zhao Zonglan to dinner, saying, "It's a rare opportunity to meet Mr. Zhao, so please do me the honor of joining us."
Unable to refuse the other party's hospitality, Zhao Zonglan did not turn down the offer.
However, he usually doesn't stay too long at these social gatherings; he just needs to show his sincerity.
I left at nine o'clock in the evening.
The Rolls-Royce drove smoothly out of the hotel parking lot; Chang An was driving the car.
A dozen minutes later, he glanced at the rearview mirror and tightened his grip on the steering wheel slightly. "Sir, there are two cars following us."
"They may not be friendly."
Chang An had been by Zhao Zonglan's side for several years and had seen his share of ups and downs, and also had a basic ability to judge danger.
Zhao Zonglan frowned slightly, his dark eyes filled with coldness, and said in a flat tone: "Try to shake them off. If you can't, find a place to stop."
He wanted to see who had such audacity.
Although Zhong Wei did not come along this time, Zhao Zonglan was secretly protected when he traveled.
It's inconvenient to take action in a busy city.
Chang An was well aware of this.
The two Land Rovers behind us were chasing us very closely, like they had no regard for their lives.
You can tell he's in a real hurry and acting crazy.
Following Zhao Zonglan's instructions, Chang An turned the steering wheel and the car sped into the Donggang area, which was currently under planning and construction and was located in a very remote area.
When we got to places with fewer people, we didn't drive as fast.
Two Land Rovers, one in front and one behind, intercepted Zhao Zonglan's car.
A few seconds later, seven or eight burly men got out of the car, all carrying weapons.
Perhaps because of strict domestic controls, they only had cold weapons and no guns.
The leader was in his forties, of medium height, very thin, wearing an ill-fitting floral shirt, and had a scar on his face.
Zhao Zonglan got out of the car at a leisurely pace. He squinted slightly and, with the help of the car headlights, finally saw the person clearly.
Xiang Xu'an.
"Mr. Zhao, how have you been?"
Xiang Xu'an spoke in a casual tone, his face fierce and sinister, "I begged you so much back then, but you still wouldn't leave me a way out. You truly deserve to be called a legendary tyrant."
"There's absolutely no human touch about it."
He only said a few wrong words, but he was almost shot dead by Zhao Zonglan, and his career was ruined.
Jingyao's legal department sued him on various charges. If he hadn't had his wife take the blame, he would probably be in jail right now.
Xiang Xu'an couldn't swallow this insult and wanted to find an opportunity to take revenge.
But because he was penniless, he had no choice but to smuggle himself back to China and lie low for a long time.
Zhao Zonglan lowered his eyes and took off the ring on his hand, his tone cold: "Since you know I have no humanity, why did you still come to die, Xiang Xu'an? Do you really not want to live anymore?"
Xiang Xu'an laughed twice, "Mr. Zhao, I never thought I'd leave alive when I came to see you today."
"In my condition, there's no difference between being alive and being dead."
“But you are different. You are Zhao Zonglan. So many people depend on you for their livelihood.”
"If I can exchange my life for another, then I've come out ahead."
"After running this business for so many years, you should be able to figure this out."
Desperados fear death the least.
"Oh, by the way, Mr. Zhao, just so you know, those people who were secretly protecting you have already been taken down by my men."
Fortunately, none of them were bodyguards; otherwise, they really wouldn't have been able to handle it.
Zhao Zonglan scoffed lightly, his expression remaining indifferent. "No wonder, so arrogant."
Xiang Xu'an threw the cigarette in his hand on the ground and crushed it out with his foot. "To deal with Mr. Zhao, of course we have to do our homework and can't be careless."
After saying that, he waved his hand, and the men behind him, armed with knives and clubs, rushed towards Zhao Zonglan.
The opposing side came on strong, and each of them was a trained martial artist.
Chang An contacted Zhong Wei, but it would take some time for their people to arrive.
Assistant Chang was thin and skinny. Although he had trained in combat with Zhao Zonglan in New York, he hadn't learned much and found it very difficult to deal with these burly men.
Individually, none of these people could match Zhao Zonglan.
However, since there are many people on the other side, it will take some time to deal with them.
Zhao Zonglan dodged the oncoming attack with agility. Due to the fierce fighting, the longevity lock in his suit pocket accidentally fell to the ground.
They even stepped on it a few times.
The golden longevity lock was hidden in the darkness, stained with dirt.
Zhao Zonglan frowned, a shadow falling over his eyes, and said in a low, cold voice, "You reckless fool."
He kicked the burly man in front of him to the ground, who fell to the ground with a pained cry and couldn't get up.
One, two...
I was planning to take my time, but these bastards are so blind.
How dare they step on his longevity lock!
That's damn good.
