"This is it. Master Tan's workshop is in the innermost room."
Du Wangqin turned off the engine and pointed to the depths of the silent workers' shed.
Chen Qing pushed open the car door and followed Du Wangqin into the narrow passage between the workers' sheds.
Du Wangqin walked ahead, glancing back every now and then, his heart filled with unease and a deep fear. His voice became hoarse as he said, "Factory Director, it's just ahead, we'll be there soon."
After walking for five or six minutes, Du Wangqin stopped, pushed open the wooden door, and let Chen Qing in: "Factory Director, Master Tan is inside, let's go."
Chen Qing stood still.
From within the six shadows, six black figures suddenly leaped out, forming a fan shape to surround Chen Qing, like venomous snakes that had been poised to strike, silently lunging straight at Chen Qing!
All six men held knives in their hands, their purpose was simple: to kill Chen Qing!
Chen Qing's pupils contracted sharply. Even though she had anticipated it, she still felt fear at the critical moment of life and death. Fortunately, her body reacted faster than her brain. The moment the first dark figure moved, she subconsciously retreated and drew her dagger with her right hand.
Just as he was about to retaliate, someone in front of him fell down.
Acheng's thin lips were pressed tightly together, and his eyes were fixed intently on Chen Qing.
The man lying in a pool of blood saw Ah Cheng; he wasn't killed by the stab, but he was enraged to death!
The remaining five people and Du Wangqin stared blankly at Acheng.
Has he gone mad?!
What on earth is he doing?!
Du Wangqin wanted to bite Acheng to death!
The other five also realized what was happening, with two of them dealing with Acheng and the rest taking care of Chen Qing.
But Chen Qing has brought his men.
The moment they made their move, the guards hiding in the shadows also moved. Seeing a momentary stagnation at the scene, they quickly gave a signal, and the three of them, each holding a gun, stood in front of Chen Qing to protect her.
Du Wangqin's face turned deathly pale when he saw the man holding the gun. "Quickly—take care of them!!!"
Yang Weibin also had a gun.
However, gun control is strict for people in the country, and he needs someone to protect him. Sending six people to deal with Chen Qing, a woman, would be an easy task no matter how you look at it.
Who could have predicted that there was a traitor within the ranks, and that Chen Qing would even bring his men?
The situation reversed in an instant!
Three guards fight against five assassins.
Chen Qing's side has a clear advantage.
The guard's moves were simple, each strike aimed at vital points such as joints and soft ribs, striving to incapacitate the opponent as quickly as possible.
Then, screams and the sound of bones dislocating rang out continuously.
Chen Qing then pinned Du Wangqin down, took out a rope from his pocket and tied him up, then casually cut off a piece of Du Wangqin's clothes, stuffed it into his mouth, and kicked him aside.
Acheng glanced at Chen Qing out of the corner of his eye and, seeing that she was alright, felt somewhat relieved.
But the assassin who was kicked down by Acheng quickly struggled to his feet, pulled out a long triangular file from his pocket, and poured all his strength into his arm, smashing it hard at Chen Qing!
Watch out behind you!
A guard who was grappling with his opponent caught a glimpse of this out of the corner of his eye and yelled a warning.
Just as the triangular file was about to pass by Acheng and pierce Chen Qing, Acheng instinctively blocked it, and the triangular file also deeply pierced into the area below his left shoulder.
He staggered suddenly, his clothes instantly stained red with the gushing blood.
The person who ambushed him was quickly subdued by the guards, and the battle was nearing its end.
One of them glanced around warily, then approached Chen Qing: "Factory Manager, are you alright? We're late."
Chen Qing shook his head and quickly stepped forward to support Acheng's body, which was about to collapse.
Ah Cheng's entire weight pressed down on him, and his left hand gripped Chen Qing's wrist tightly as she held his arm. He wanted to say something, but his eyelids drooped, and he completely fainted.
But that hand was still gripping Chen Qing's wrist tightly.
Chen Qing calmly arranged: "Leave two people to clean up the scene and investigate the situation. Xiao Wu, you come with me to take him to the hospital."
The three agreed.
Xiao Wu carried Acheng on his back and took a car to the nearest hospital.
Chen Qing sat on a bench in the hospital corridor, feeling his back was already soaked with sweat.
Even though she has been targeted over the years, very few people have actually tried to kill her.
This time, Du Wangqin was careless, and she was able to catch him doing something wrong, which allowed her to call the guards for help. If it happens again...
Chen Qing rubbed his face, not daring to imagine what his fate would be.
The summer sportswear factory is very profitable, but how long can she keep it up as society becomes increasingly turbulent and chaotic?
Or rather...
How long can she live?
A piece of meat coveted by a large number of people will always be seized by someone willing to risk their life.
Chen Qingdu was thinking about whether she should write a will first, so that if she died suddenly, she wouldn't not know how to arrange things for her family and the factory.
She turned her head and looked back at the emergency room.
She didn't know if Yang Weibin, who was behind Acheng, was involved, but she did indeed owe Acheng a huge favor.
When Yang Weibin learned that all his men had been arrested and that Acheng still dared to betray him, he was so angry that he smashed all the expensive tea sets in front of him!
"Damn it, does he think that just because he saved Chen Qing, she'll marry him?! What wishful thinking! He's just a lackey, a toy. What kind of status does Chen Qing have now? Would she even look at him?!"
Yang Weibin was furious.
His meticulously planned scheme aimed to kill Chen Qing, which would inevitably reduce the prevalence of legal aid in China. This would allow him to seize all the Chinese treasures he coveted, especially traditional Chinese medicine. If Chen Qing hadn't interfered, he and the Japanese could have made a fortune by collaborating with them!
Damn woman.
Damn it!
Yang Weibin was so angry that he felt dizzy and had no choice but to clear his name.
Ah Cheng has gone to Chen Qing's place. He needs to go and see him, and he also needs to tell Ah Cheng not to talk nonsense, and that it would be better if he were dead!
Suppressing his anger, Yang Weibin went to the hospital. Chen Qing was under strict guard, and Yang Weibin was only allowed to enter by saying that he was Acheng's superior.
Yang Weibin spoke with a stern face: "Director Chen, I deeply sympathize with your plight. I know what you're thinking, but you should also know that things between us haven't reached the point of life and death. I just wanted to come see Acheng and, incidentally, demand an explanation from your country. Why was someone killed my subordinate? Is this your law enforcement? Today Acheng is in trouble, will it be my turn to be in trouble tomorrow?!"
His questioning undoubtedly placed him on a moral high ground.
He's a foreign businessman.
China is currently in a crucial stage of attracting foreign investment, and foreign investors are everyone's treasure. If Yang Weibin makes statements saying that China is unsafe and that someone is deliberately killing foreign investors, it will inevitably cause a large number of foreign investors to be unwilling to invest. Even if Chen Qing is a victim, he will become the culprit in the eyes of many people!
Chen Qing raised his eyes, observing his facial expression, trying to discern his true thoughts from his rugged face: "I'm sorry, it's because I have some personal enemies that led to today's situation. Acheng helped me when he happened to be passing by, and I'm truly grateful to him. Also, our country places great importance on the safety of foreign businessmen. If you're still worried, I can find someone else for you." (End of Chapter)
