Chapter 44: The Wang family is left with nothing left to lose after the King of Tianliang is defeated!
Ling Feng still wanted to save face. He could use various hints and almost explicit words to express that he no longer wanted to bear Tao's mother's medical expenses, but he didn't want to be exposed directly and lose face.
Now that Tao Xiaoyu had exposed his thoughts, he became even more angry and said angrily, "Don't you have any love for me at all? Do you have to be so cold and only talk about gratitude? Can the love between us be measured by gratitude?"
Shouldn't she take the initiative to help him because she loves him?
Tao Xiaoyu was stunned, her eyes widened in disbelief: "Is there love between us?" Isn't this just a pure transaction? They have even signed an illegal contract, who are you trying to fool with this excuse?
Tao Xiaoyu sneered, "Don't try to fool me with this kind of excuse. Who loves you? If my mother hadn't needed a large sum of money for surgery at the time, I wouldn't have been with you! And even though the contract we signed was illegal, you made me sign it. Since you broke the contract first, don't blame me for not continuing to perform the contract."
It is impossible for someone to be so hypocritical, breaching the contract while demanding that the other party fulfill the contract.
Tao Xiaoyu turned to look at Wang Zhenbao and said, "Zhenzhen, let's go. I don't want to stay here even for a minute." She felt that if she continued talking to Ling Feng, this mentally ill scumbag, she would lose her mind.
Ling Feng saw Tao Xiaoyu was mercilessly trying to leave with Wang Zhenbao, and he flew into a rage: "Are you looking for another man to leave me?" He glared at Wang Zhenbao, "What's the relationship between that man and her?!"
Of course, Ling Feng would not blame himself for the reason why Tao Xiaoyu wanted to leave, so he concluded that Tao Xiaoyu was fickle and had hooked up with other financial sponsors, which was why she wanted to leave.
If Wang Zhenbao, who came to pick up Tao Xiaoyu, was not a woman, he would have directly thought that Tao Xiaoyu was hooking up with Wang Zhenbao.
But now he also directly charged Tao Xiaoyu with a crime, believing that Tao Xiaoyu had hooked up with Wang Zhenbao's brother or younger brother and that was why she wanted to leave with Wang Zhenbao.
Wang Zhenbao and Tao Xiaoyu were both amused by Ling Feng's words. When Wang Zhenbao was about to say something to Ling Feng, Tao Xiaoyu directly pulled her hand and walked out the door. When she walked to Ling Feng, she kicked Ling Feng on the calf.
Tao Xiaoyu had already changed into her high heels when she was about to leave. The feeling of the soles of the high heels kicking on her calves was so painful that Ling Feng could no longer maintain his image of a domineering boss. He bent his knees and knelt down on one knee in front of Wang Zhenbao and Tao Xiaoyu.
Tao Xiaoyu snorted, glanced at Ling Feng with disdain, and said to Wang Zhenbao: "Zhenzhen, why bother with him? He is a man who never listens to others. He thinks he is so outstanding and thinks all women in the world must like him. Little does he know that even women who are after his money can't stand his temper."
Tao Xiaoyu felt that if it wasn't for her mother, she wouldn't be able to tolerate Ling Feng for much longer. This bastard was really sick in the brain.
If she was just purely materialistic, she would have run away long ago. After all, no matter how materialistic a person is, if she meets a scumbag like Ling Feng, she will treat money as dirt.
Wang Zhenbao looked at Tao Xiaoyu's extremely powerful fighting ability and didn't have any chance to show his abilities at all. He was dragged out of the door by Tao Xiaoyu with a confused look on his face.
Ling Feng endured the pain, stood up and ran out of the door to attack Tao Xiaoyu and Wang Zhenbao. However, two of Wang Zhenbao's tall and strong bodyguards clamped his hands directly. Severe pain came from his arms. Ling Feng was thrown back into the house by the bodyguards like a dead dog. Then there was a loud 'bang' and the door was slammed shut by the bodyguards.
Ling Feng struggled to get up from the ground. Looking at the few traces left by Tao Xiaoyu in the house, he suddenly became so angry that veins on his face popped out and he smashed everything in the house, especially the things left by Tao Xiaoyu.
"Damn bitch! How dare you humiliate me like this!" Ling Feng's anger at having his self-esteem trampled on made him temporarily ignore the pain in his body, and he madly smashed the entire house to vent his anger.
Tao Xiaoyu, who was already sitting in Wang Zhenbao's car, said calmly: "Ling Feng is probably smashing things in anger right now."
Wang Zhenbao was shocked: “...Ah?” He had never heard that Ling Feng had any violent tendencies in his previous life.
In his previous life, after Wang Zhenbao and Ling Feng fell out, although Ling Feng showed an extremely cold-blooded and cruel side, he was only the one who gave the orders and had never beaten anyone himself. He always ordered his lackeys to beat people.
Unexpectedly, Ling Feng’s current life was not as good as his previous one, and he even had violent tendencies.
Tao Xiaoyu curled her lips and said, "Don't be fooled by his decent appearance. He is actually an emotionally unstable giant baby who needs to be coaxed every day. To be honest, I don't feel guilty about the money I took. It's very tiring just to coax him and provide him with emotional value every day. It's even more tiring than when I was selling alcohol in a bar before."
When Wang Zhenbao heard Tao Xiaoyu mention her selling alcohol in a bar, his face darkened: "How dare you bring this up? You're a graduate of S University, why don't you find a job instead of working in a bar? Even a high-end bar is a place where all kinds of people mix, and the chaos is out of your sight. It's very dangerous for you to be alone! You also met Ling Feng in the bar, right?"
Tao Xiaoyu knew that Wang Zhenbao was concerned about her, so she could only explain in a low voice: "That bar is where we went to play once before. The owner has a strong background, and few people dare to cause trouble in that bar. I just sell wine, and the sales commission of high-end wine is quite high. Even if I joined a big company right after graduation, I didn't have a high starting salary. My mother's medical expenses can't wait for my salary to increase slowly, so I can only resort to this last resort. I thought about dealing with the emergency first, making some quick money and then changing jobs..."
Wang Zhenbao changed the subject again: "So if you have any difficulties, come to me. I can lend you money for emergency. No matter what, even if I don't have money, I can find someone to lend you money. It's much easier than for you to bear all these alone."
In fact, Tao Xiaoyu now thinks that she seemed to have been stuck in her head at the time. She just wanted to not drag Wang Zhenbao down and solve her own problems on her own. It was as if there was a mysterious force pushing her forward and making a choice.
Thinking back to when Ling Feng offered her the support contract, she had clearly intended to refuse it. But coincidentally, her mother's attending physician called and told her that her mother's condition had worsened and she needed surgery, which urgently required a large sum of money. Logically, the first person she should have thought of was Wang Zhenbao, her best friend. But she didn't even think of asking Wang Zhenbao for help. She only thought of Ling Feng in front of her, and then agreed to Ling Feng's request.
Now after leaving Ling Feng and sitting next to her good friend, Tao Xiaoyu thought back rationally and felt that she had lost her mind and made an unwise decision.
However, Tao Xiaoyu is not a woman who will indulge in regret. She is quite open-minded and can look at things in a relaxed manner. "Let's not talk about the past. It's all in the past. Thank you, Zhenzhen, for saving me from the fire and water. Otherwise, I really don't know what to do for a while."
Before Wang Zhenbao came, she was worried that Ling Feng didn't want to bear her mother's medical expenses, and didn't allow her to go out to work and earn money. She was alone, and her mother was a weakness in Ling Feng's hand. It would be very difficult to get rid of Ling Feng. After all, with Ling Feng's brain circuit, as soon as she proposed to leave, Ling Feng would definitely think that she had betrayed him for another man and would retaliate against her.
She was not afraid of anything as she was alone, but she was afraid that Ling Feng would make trouble and not let her work to earn money, and her mother would be cut off from medical expenses.
Fortunately, Wang Zhenbao came...
Otherwise, Tao Xiaoyu really didn't know what decision she would make when she had no choice.
Tao Xiaoyu reminded Wang Zhenbao to be careful of Ling Feng's revenge. After all, she knew how petty this bastard was. Today, both of them had offended Ling Feng. In addition, Ling Feng believed that Wang Zhenbao had something to do with Tao Xiaoyu leaving him, so he would definitely take revenge on Wang Zhenbao.
Tao Xiaoyu knew that the Ling Group was now on the decline and could not threaten Wang Zhenbao, who started a business in Kyoto, nor could it threaten Wang's Jueweixuan across industries, but she could not guarantee that Ling Feng's brain circuit would lead to anything bad.
Wang Zhenbao didn't take Ling Feng seriously and snorted coldly, "What can he do? Can he deal with my Wang family with legitimate business competition methods? He is nothing more than using some despicable and shameless tricks to deal with the Wang family, but as long as I am on guard, will I be afraid of him?"
The Ling Group is not involved in the catering industry and is now being suppressed by its rivals. It can do nothing about the Wang family's Jueweixuan in City S. As for the small company she had just successfully started in Kyoto, the Ling family, whose power was concentrated in S City, could not reach Kyoto.
Based on Wang Zhenbao's understanding of Ling Feng's past life, the retaliation Ling Feng could do would probably be the same as in his past life, either stealing business secrets or hiring someone to kill someone.
In his previous life, the Ling Group headed by Ling Feng was the industry leader in S City, a behemoth whose influence had expanded to other cities. Even so, when Ling Feng was dealing with the Wang family, he only thought of using these two tricks instead of using fair business competition to deal with the Wang family.
Now the strength of the Ling's Group has shrunk significantly, and it has fallen to a third- or fourth-rate level in S City. It is so short of funds that it doesn't even want to pay for Tao's mother's medical expenses. It is even more impossible for him to use the power of the Ling's Group to engage in a business war with Wang Zhenbao in an open manner.
Wang Zhenbao looked at the two bodyguards sitting in the front driver's seat and the front passenger seat and said to them, "I'll trouble you to be alert during this period. Ling Feng is not a clean person. He might take some extreme revenge on Xiaoyu and me out of resentment."
These two bodyguards are professional bodyguards specially hired by Si Yuan for Wang Zhenbao. Their professional qualities are worthy of their high bodyguard fees.
The two bodyguards who protected Wang Zhenbao throughout the whole process seemed to have a low presence, but in fact, they heard the confrontation between Tao Xiaoyu and Ling Feng and her conversation with Wang Zhenbao. They also understood the ins and outs of the matter and knew how to guard against Ling Feng.
After all, Si Yuan, the real employer, had already sent Ling Feng's information to them.
The bodyguard driving the car said, "Please rest assured, Ms. Wang, we will do our job of protecting you."
Another bodyguard sitting in the passenger seat has already started contacting the security company behind them, asking for some resource support such as professional equipment and tools.
Wang Zhenbao actually didn’t know much about the two bodyguards, but she trusted her father very much. She knew that the two bodyguards were hired by Si Yuan to protect her, so she trusted them as well.
Wang Zhenbao brought Tao Xiaoyu back to the Wang family in S City to settle down. No one lives in the Wang family now. Si Yuan and Li Guihua are both in Kyoto, which is where Wang Zhenbao stayed when he returned to S City. Now Tao Xiaoyu has also moved in.
However, Tao Xiaoyu was worried about her mother, so Wang Zhenbao went to the hospital with Tao Xiaoyu, switched Tao's mother to a high-end VIP ward, paid for one year's medical expenses, and told the hospital not to disclose Tao's mother's information to anyone else or let other strangers visit Tao's mother. Only Tao Xiaoyu could visit Tao's mother.
This is to prevent Ling Feng from targeting Tao's mother.
Wang Zhenbao never dared to overestimate Ling Feng's bottom line. After all, in his previous life, he sent people to abduct her and caused her parents to have a car accident. How could he not kill Tao's mother to avenge Tao Xiaoyu now?
So when she transferred Tao's mother to another ward, she specifically told the hospital to keep it confidential, and to let as few people as possible know about Tao's mother's transfer, so that they could all tell everyone that Tao's mother had been transferred to another hospital.
The doctors and nurses who knew the inside story felt a little panicked. Why did they feel as if they were involved in some dangerous struggle? In order to prevent patients from having the chance of getting into trouble in their hospital, each of them kept their mouths shut even though they were extremely curious. They were just ordinary people and no one wanted to be involved in dangerous things because of momentary curiosity or a slip of the tongue.
After settling Tao's mother, Tao Xiaoyu felt relieved.
Tao Xiaoyu didn't live in the Wang family for long before she moved to an ordinary house under the name of Wang Zhenbao. The only advantage of this house is that it is a school district house. Si Yuan bought it for investment. Now the price has skyrocketed several times compared to the purchase price. He transferred it to Wang Zhenbao's name and now Wang Zhenbao uses it to accommodate Tao Xiaoyu.
Wang Zhenbao persuaded Tao Xiaoyu to follow her to Kyoto. Compared with the capital city of Kyoto, although S City is also a first-tier city, it is still a little inferior. S City is also the base camp of the Ling family, and the madman Ling Feng lives here. If she stays in S City, there is no guarantee that she will not meet Ling Feng.
After Tao Xiaoyu hesitated, Wang Zhenbao used Tao's mother to persuade her: "Let Auntie be transferred to Kyoto. The big hospital in Kyoto may bring new hope to Auntie's condition. Even if it can't be cured, it may make Auntie's condition better."
Tao Xiaoyu's mother is undoubtedly more important than herself, so Wang Zhenbao persuaded her with Tao Xiaoyu's own safety. Tao Xiaoyu hesitated and didn't want to leave S City for her mother, but she made up her mind immediately after Wang Zhenbao persuaded her with her mother's treatment: "Okay, transfer Mom to Kyoto. But don't rush, I will go to Kyoto to find a job and settle down first, and then transfer Mom to another hospital."
She was worried that she wouldn't be able to settle down in Kyoto and wouldn't be able to support her mother's medical expenses at the Kyoto General Hospital. She would then have to go through the trouble of transferring her mother back to S City. It would be better for her to go to Kyoto first, resolve all the difficulties, and then take her mother over.
Seeing that Tao Xiaoyu was convinced by him, Wang Zhenbao immediately bought a plane ticket and prepared to take Tao Xiaoyu to Kyoto without saying a word.
However, Tao Xiaoyu wanted to see her mother again before leaving, so the two of them took their bodyguards to the hospital to visit Tao's mother.
Tao's mother was still in a coma and had been awake for a very short time. Tao Xiaoyu and Wang Zhenbao were unable to visit her when she was awake, so Wang Zhenbao just accompanied Tao Xiaoyu to visit her in a coma, and then the two left the ward.
When they left the hospital, the two of them were sitting in the car, which was driven out of the underground garage by the bodyguard in charge. Just as they turned the corner and merged into the main road, the bodyguard sitting in the passenger seat suddenly said, "Ms. Wang, the black SUV behind us seems to be following us."
Wang Zhenbao was startled and quickly looked back. Sure enough, he saw a black SUV following their car through the rear windshield.
Tao Xiaoyu also turned around and saw the black SUV. She asked in confusion, "We are taking the same road. Is it strange that this black SUV is following us?"
There were quite a lot of cars on this road, and there were not only this black SUV but also many other cars following behind them.
Tao Xiaoyu didn't think there was anything wrong with the black SUV following behind their car.
The bodyguard driving the car quickly and standardly changed lanes to the leftmost lane: "Ms. Tao, we saw this black SUV once when we entered the hospital. I remember its license plate number. Now we just happened to see it when we left the hospital. This is really too much of a coincidence."
This kind of coincidence is not impossible, but something that is too coincidental may not really be a coincidence, especially when they have been on high alert and are aware that there is a Ling Feng plotting something in secret.
Wang Zhenbao and Tao Xiaoyu moved from the Wang family to another residential area. Even if Ling Feng found out Wang Zhenbao's identity and sent people to follow the Wang family, they would not be able to find the two.
Therefore, the best place for Ling Feng to keep an eye on Wang Zhenbao and Tao Xiaoyu is the hospital where Tao's mother is hospitalized. This is where Tao Xiaoyu must come.
The two bodyguards were also aware of this, so when they sent Wang Zhenbao and Tao Xiaoyu to the hospital, they paid close attention to the surrounding situation and even wrote down the license plate numbers of any suspicious vehicles they met on the road.
Only then were they able to notice that something was wrong with the black SUV following behind them.
The bodyguard was originally going to go straight, but he turned into the left lane and made a U-turn.
The black SUV that was originally following their car in the rightmost lane actually turned into the left lane. After their car turned around, the black SUV also turned around.
Now, let alone the bodyguards and Wang Zhenbao, even Tao Xiaoyu could see that this black SUV was really following them, which was really suspicious.
After the U-turn, the lane became much wider and there were fewer vehicles. The bodyguard driving the car sped up, and the black SUV behind him also accelerated.
After all, this is an inner-city road with many pedestrian crossings and traffic lights, so the car couldn't be driven faster. The bodyguard who was driving slowed down again after seeing the red light ahead.
But the black SUV behind them did not slow down at all. Judging from the speed of the car, it even felt like the driver of the black SUV stepped on the accelerator to accelerate.
The bodyguard driver's car was about to stop and he quickly turned the steering wheel to avoid the black SUV that was rear-ending their car. He crashed through the guardrail next to it and rushed to the opposite lane. The bodyguard driver saw that there was no car in the opposite lane at the moment, so he rushed over and drove to the non-motorized vehicle lane of the opposite lane to park.
The black SUV that rear-ended their car was not as lucky as Wang Zhenbao's car at the highway speed. It ran through the traffic lights, crashed into the guardrail in the middle of the road, and hit the roadside tree next to the opposite lane. The high-speed impact broke the not-so-thick roadside tree. The car was riding on the remains of the fallen tree, which had deployed the airbag. The driver lay on the steering wheel, not knowing whether he was alive or dead.
Wang Zhenbao and Tao Xiaoyu were so frightened that their faces turned pale: "Is this... is this car trying to hit us to death?"
The bodyguard sitting in the passenger seat had already gotten out of the car to check on the driver of the black SUV and called the police to deal with the aftermath of the accident.
The bodyguard driver in the driver's seat remained alert. Hearing this, he replied, "It's obvious. The other party knew you were sitting in the back seat of the car, so they rear-ended you instead of hitting our driver's seat and the passenger seat head-on. It's obvious that they were coming for you."
It was the first time that Wang Zhenbao and Tao Xiaoyu encountered such a critical situation. Wang Zhenbao was better off, as he had experienced dangerous situations in his previous life. Although Tao Xiaoyu had also experienced strong winds and heavy rains, she had never experienced such a crisis where her life was hanging by a thread.
Tao Xiaoyu's face was pale as she tightly grasped Wang Zhenbao's hand. Her eyes were red with tears, and she choked up and said, "It must have been Ling Feng who did it. We only offended him. I'm sorry, Zhenzhen, I'm sorry. I didn't want to implicate you, but I ended up implicating you anyway..."
Tao Xiaoyu deeply regretted that she chose to ask Wang Zhenbao for help when she left Ling Feng. She thought that Ling Feng would at most use some business competition means to retaliate against Wang Zhenbao, and given the situation of the Wang family, they would not be afraid of Ling Feng's revenge at all. But what she didn't expect was that Ling Feng was such an outlaw.
She had not been in contact with Ling Feng for a long time before, and she only knew about Ling Feng's character flaws. She didn't know that Ling Feng was actually an outlaw who, in order to vent his anger and take revenge on them, was so willing to send someone to run them over with a car!
Wang Zhenbao hugged her tightly, and the two of them kept each other warm and comforted each other. Wang Zhenbao's voice was trembling a little: "It's okay, it's okay, we're fine. We will definitely find out who Ling Feng is and put him in jail. Don't be afraid!"
Wang Zhenbao couldn't help but think of her parents in her previous life, who were also killed and paralyzed by Ling Feng in this way. She felt extremely hateful. She pulled out her hand, took out her cell phone and called her father: "Dad, I was almost killed..."
Si Yuan couldn't sit still after receiving Wang Zhenbao's complaint call. While answering the phone to comfort Wang Zhenbao, he bought a plane ticket to return to S City: "Don't be afraid, don't be afraid. Tell Dad what happened. Dad will be back soon to help you solve the problem."
Wang Zhenbao cried and told Si Yuan what had happened to him.
Si Yuan frowned and said soothingly, "Don't be afraid. If it was really Ling Feng who did it, then he is finished. The law will not let him off."
After comforting his daughter and hanging up the phone, Si Yuan immediately began to collect evidence of Ling Feng's crime of hiring a killer to murder someone.
