Danger! Revenge! Ambush!
These few words put together made Meng Sheng's breathing stagnate instantly and his pupils shrink sharply.
His brows furrowed involuntarily, he breathed a sigh of relief calmly, and checked the time. It was currently 7:36, and there were only 33 minutes left until 8:09.
It is about a twenty-minute drive from here to Suixing Law Firm.
But the problem is that there is a main road between the two, and Qingcheng Road is the most congested during the evening rush hour.
It's not uncommon to be stuck in traffic on that road for an hour.
If you take a detour...
Then you have to take Yalin Road, which also takes half an hour, and that requires ensuring there is no traffic jam.
After a brief thought, she dialed Pei Sui's phone without hesitation. The phone rang, but no one answered for a long time.
She called his WeChat number again, but again, no one answered.
Meng Sheng's brows furrowed tighter and tighter, and his heartbeat quickened.
Can’t contact Pei Sui…
There was no time to rush over, so she pursed her lips and thought, then quickly searched the consultation phone number of Suixing Law Firm on the Internet and dialed it.
After a few seconds of ringing, a clear voice came from the microphone, "Hello, this is Suixing Law Firm, how can I help you?"
"Hello, is Lawyer Pei Sui at the law firm?"
Upon hearing this, the receptionist suspected that she had come to ask for Director Pei's contact information on purpose.
After all, this kind of thing happens all the time.
She asked kindly, "Excuse me, do you have a case?"
Meng Sheng said bluntly, "Just tell me if he is in the law firm now. If he is, he must not be allowed to go to the parking lot!"
The receptionist was stunned for a moment, not understanding what was going on. "Director Pei is out on a business trip today and is not at the law firm right now. You said we can't go to the parking lot, is that right..."
"Will he go back to the law firm at night?"
"I'm not sure about this. Director Pei often works overtime..."
If Pei Sui drove back to the law firm, he would still go to that parking lot.
Meng Sheng said "thank you" and hung up the phone. The time was already 7:41.
Her heart was beating fast, her thoughts were racing, and she kept telling herself not to panic or get confused.
If she lost control at this time, the situation would only make things worse.
She clenched her fists and thought seriously.
If she called the police, she didn't know exactly where the incident happened in the parking lot, nor did she know when the man would appear.
Moreover, it would be a huge risk for her.
How did she know that the man would ambush in the parking lot when she was tens of thousands of miles away?
It will be troublesome if the police ask questions.
Suddenly, a thought flashed through her mind. She reached out and grabbed it, and immediately made a phone call, "Cao Ping, get someone to go to the Yuantong parking lot near Suixing Law Firm right now."
The middle-aged man on the other end of the phone was slightly stunned, but he didn't doubt it. "Yes, I'll be there now."
After hanging up the phone, he immediately called someone to rush to the Yuantong parking lot together.
Meng Sheng breathed a sigh of relief.
Pingchong Brothers is a bodyguard company, which happens to be not far from Suixing Law Firm, only about two or three kilometers away, at least much closer than where she started from the art museum.
What's more, bodyguards are more secure than her.
In wealthy families in Beijing, basically everyone is accompanied by two or more bodyguards when traveling.
Especially businessmen.
Shang Boyu has bodyguards around him, including the villa they live in now, which is guarded by bodyguards on a daily basis.
Meng Sheng doesn't like to be surrounded by people, so when she goes out on a daily basis, she rarely even has a driver.
Cao Ping and the other three bodyguards were signed by her herself and she could dispatch them at will.
She didn't waste any more time, picked up her coat and bag and hurried out of the office. She still couldn't take Qingcheng Road, otherwise she didn't know how long the traffic jam would last.
You can only take Yalin Road.
But as soon as she reached the office area, she saw Ning Weiwei walking out of the elevator with a weak look on her face, holding a document in her hand.
His face was pale and his eyes were wet, he looked extremely pitiful.
She didn't look very good all day, obviously she had a cold.
Several people advised her to take a leave and go to the hospital for injections and medication, but she just smiled.
When she saw Meng Sheng holding her bag and preparing to leave, the light in her eyes brightened a little.
She planned to wait until Meng Sheng left, then pretend to faint and have the hospital staff call Shang Boyu. He would definitely not avoid her by then.
If this self-torture tactic works well, it won't be a problem to make Shang Boyu change his mind.
"Shengsheng, is it time to get off work?" She raised her hand to cover her lips and asked softly.
"Yeah." Meng Sheng responded indifferently. Seeing her like this, he didn't know what she was thinking. He frowned and said, "If you have a cold, go home early. There are dozens of people in the art museum, and there are many visitors every day. If it gets infected, it will be a big deal."
Ning Weiwei's face flashed with embarrassment, and then she put on an innocent look, "I was thinking wrongly. I thought that the art museum was in need of people, so I asked for a day off yesterday. I can't back down today..."
"Go back early."
Meng Sheng didn't have time to listen to her talking about how selfless she was, so he threw down these four words and went straight into the elevator.
Pei Sui went out to discuss a case today. He left at around ten in the morning. Because he had a lot of things to sort out, he returned to the law firm after dinner.
The lights in the parking lot were not very bright. As the car was about to drive into the parking space, there was a dull sound and the right tire sank in an instant.
Pei Sui paused, took his foot off the accelerator, unbuckled his seat belt, pushed open the door and got out.
I noticed right away that there was a large thumbtack stuck in the tire.
He frowned and an unusual breeze brushed past his ears.
Having been in the legal profession for so many years, he has offended many people and suffered retaliation as well. Now, his ability to sense danger is extraordinary.
The dim street lights just cast a shadow, not yet a human shape, his handsome face sank, his eyes were cold, and when the baseball bat was swung down, he dodged cleverly, without even seeing the appearance of the shadow, he grabbed his collar and rammed his knee into his abdomen.
The shadow cried out in pain, struggled and resisted, and the baseball bat hit him on the head again.
Pei Sui took advantage of the situation and clamped his wrist, twisting it hard, and a miserable scream immediately pierced the sky.
