Chapter 154-1: (withheld)
Yang Chen obviously wouldn’t really be so bored as to drink alcohol. Without even mentioning the fact that he couldn’t immerse himself in alcohol due to his mental condition, Yang Chen was already too intrigued by the current situation. Others may not be able to see some things that Yang Chen could see, in his eyes, there were too many things worth of thinking over and suspecting. There were even many details that were filled with all kinds of deep meanings, how could he go for a drink during such a splendid time like this?
After turning through several corners in the empty walkway, Yang Chen walked towards a small exit at the back of the villa. If he walked out of the small door there, he would arrive at the outdoor car park behind the villa.
In a huge building complex like this, it was only natural that there would be many exits, it wasn’t possible for it to only have one large entrance, so Yang Chen easily found this door.
However, Yang Chen didn’t rush to leave, he instead turned around slowly and talked to the empty corridor, “Miss Mo, tailing somebody is a bad habit, especially when it’s a beauty tailing a married man.”
After holding it in for a moment, the blushing Mo Qianni coldly walked out from a corner, she angrily said, “It’s your fault for deceiving me, you obviously wanted to flee on your own!”
“Flee? I never said I wanted to flee.” Yang Chen slowly walked towards Mo Qianni.
Mo Qianni suddenly understood, “I got it, you want to go to the warehouse at Jinzewan’s pier, you want to go to the place where Li Muhua is going! Am I right?”
“Very smart, but what does that have to do with you?” Yang Chen answered her without concealing anything.
“I can’t let you go, it’s too dangerous!” Mo Qianni anxiously said.
“But you have no way of stopping me.” Yang Chen shrugged with a smile.
Mo Qianni watched as Yang Chen got closer and closer, then subconsciously took two steps back, “Then you should bring me with you, I can’t let you go to such a dangerous place alone!”
Yang Chen was pretty curious, so he asked, “You know that it’s dangerous, why do you still want to go with me?”
“I… I’m worried about you.” Mo Qianni spoke so softly like she was whispering, her face was incredibly red under the light.
She couldn’t allow Yang Chen to go to such a dangerous place alone. Although she knew that such words were too straightforward and that it was basically laying her feelings out in the open, at such a critical juncture, Mo Qianni could no longer care about being reserved!
Yang Chen was stunned for a moment, he never expected that Mo Qianni would blurt out how she felt inside so directly, and how she’s worried about him. Could he continue treating her with a tough attitude?
Yang Chen couldn’t do it, so he gave up his initial plan of knocking Mo Qianni unconscious.
After maintaining silence for a while, Yang Chen sighed, then gently smiled, “I was originally planning to knock you out and throw you back into your room, but I have a soft heart that can’t resist a woman’s sweet words, especially those that come from a beautiful woman. Since you want to go with me so much, I will let you.”
“You… you actually wanted to knock me out?” Mo Qianni was so angry that she nearly teared up while glaring at him.
“Duh, you’re worried about my safety, while I’m also worried about yours.” Yang Chen replied.
Mo Qianni was immediately speechless. Her heart beat several times quicker, then she turned her delicate eyes to another direction and pursed her lips, forbidding herself from revealing a joyful smile
It was as if the ambiguous feeling between them had received a true response, and it seemed pointless to speak more. It was better to just maintain the unclear sweetness between them.
“Hey, silly chick, is there a need to be this happy? Are you still coming?” Yang Chen asked with a smile.
Mo Qianni promptly returned to her senses, “Of course I’m coming, but you have to take care of me.” With a pitiful expression, she was like a bullied lady, and didn’t look like a tough and successful career woman anymore.
Yang Chen gestured with his fingers to beckon her, and Mo Qianni quickly followed him.
When they walked to the small exit, there was already a bodyguard in black standing outside, clearly to stop any guests from leaving without permission.
“Bro, come in for a moment.” Yang Chen beckoned the bodyguard with a smile.
The bro in black quickly entered, with an amiable smile he asked, “Is anything the matter, mister?”
“Aye, please be unconscious for a while.”
Without waiting for the bodyguard to react, Yang Chen chopped the back of his neck at lightning speeds, and the man in black immediately fainted onto the ground.
Mo Qianni was so shocked that her mouth gaped open, she looked at Yang Chen with a cute expression, “Were you intending to knock me out like this earlier?”
“Make a guess.” Yang Chen winked at her, then walked out of the door.
In the cover of the night, the car park was so quiet that the only sound that could be heard was the wind blowing against the trees, several flamboyant high-end cars were parked there.
Mo Qianni found the place pretty chilly, she hugged her arms and asked Yang Chen, “Are you planning to go with Li Muhua? We don’t have a car.”
Yang Chen evilly smiled, pointed at the cars in the car park and said, “Who says we don’t have a car, aren’t all of these cars?”
“Are you thinking of stealing a car?”
Mo Qianni found the situation hopeless, but before she could stop him, Yang Chen had already walked over to the nearest black Lexus.
“Hey! You must be kidding!?” Mo Qianni forced a smile and asked.
Yang Chen rubbed his chin, made a circle around the car, and seemed to have verified something. He suddenly reached out his hand and struck the window with a hammer strike!
*Shatter!!*
The sound of glass breaking was heard and a large hole suddenly appeared on the car’s window!
“Did you see that?” Yang Chen pointed at that the window that he easily shattered, “This Lexus model has a fairly weak alarm system, as long as one doesn’t mess with the lock, it won’t make any alarm sounds.”
As he said that, under the Mo Qianni’s stupefied and cute gaze, Yang Chen casually unlocked the car by reaching inside, then opened the driver’s door and entered.
Mo Qianni nearly fainted, Yang Chen’s conduct and deeds were way beyond an ordinary person’s ethics, laws, and morals. His way of thinking wasn’t something an ordinary lady of society like her could understand.
“Quickly get on.” Yang Chen gestured her to come over, and unlocked the door to the passenger seat.
When Mo Qianni got into the car, Yang Chen had already stripped a piece of plastic off the area below the steering wheel, and was fiddling with the insides.
After mentally preparing herself, Mo Qianni didn’t get as shocked this time. Rather puzzled, she asked, “What are you doing now? Can you start the car by doing that?”
“You don’t say?” Yang Chen rolled his eyes at her and continued to fiddle with the wires inside the car, “Without a key, special methods have to be employed.”
The moment he spoke, the dashboard of the Lexus suddenly lit up, then the engine roared. The car had been started!
Ignoring Mo Qianni’s shocked expression, Yang Chen proficiently adjusted the seat, then prepared to drive off.
“Hold on!” Mo Qianni seemed to have thought of something, and advised, “There are definitely people from the villa keeping watch. Even though it’s a short distance away from the public roads that surround the villa, if we drive out like this, the headlights will definitely be noticed by them!”
“At least you’re smart.” Yang Chen praised while giving Mo Qianni’s nose a tap, causing the latter to blush.
“How are we going to leave then?”
“Who says lights must be on when driving at night?”
“Do you mean…”
Ignoring Mo Qianni’s gaze as if she was looking at a crazy person, Yang Chen laughed and turned off the car’s headlights. The car was just like it would have been during the day, without a single light on!
Next, Yang Chen switched gears and smoothly drove the car out of the car park. He began to drive the car towards the roads surrounding the villa!
Looking at the darkness ahead of her, Mo Qianni couldn’t even see three meters ahead, thinking about how Yang Chen intended to drive all the way to Jinzewan like this, she was so terrified that she begun thinking about jumping out of the car!
“Are you mad? If you drive like this, we’ll end up falling off the mountain!”
Yang Chen shot her a glance in the dark and said, “If you trust me, obediently sit there and keep quiet. Although I agreed to bring you to Jinzewan, you have to comply with all of my orders. Otherwise, I can’t guarantee that I won’t knock you out and throw you to the back seat.”
When he said this, Mo Qianni immediately reacted by shutting her mouth, she grudgingly mumbled to herself a little, but still put on her seat belt and obediently kept quiet.
The black Lexus didn’t have any lights on, like a specter at midnight, galloping across the pitch-black mountain path, yet its speed wasn’t slow at all.
Luckily, there were very few cars on the mountain path at this time, so even though the headlights weren’t switched on, the speeding car didn’t cause any big disturbance. There was only the occasional car passing by, and the driver would just think that they were seeing things.
Gradually, Mo Qianni realized that her worries were unnecessary, because Yang Chen didn’t have any problems staying on the road while driving in this black car without light, as if this was day instead of night!
While sighing a breath of relief, Mo Qianni had another question, “Hey, Yang Chen, do you know the way to Jinzewan?”
“I do.”
“Why would you know that, isn’t it your first time in Hong Kong?”
“Remember this, whenever you listen to me speak, out of ten sentences, eleven are lies!”
“It’s a total of just ten sentences, how can there be eleven sentences of lies? If you don’t want to tell me, then forget it.” Mo Qianni said in a depressed manner.
“When you start from zero, there’d be eleven numbers when you go to ten, you don’t even know such a simple math principle.”
As the two of them chatted, the car had already gone down the mountain, Yang Chen naturally turned on the headlights as well, since it wouldn’t be suspicious to have his lights on at this point.
The car was driven through small roads towards Jinzewan. The flow of cars gradually lessened, and Yang Chen once again turned off the car’s lights.
Soon after, there was only one vehicle driving towards Jinzewan. Yang Chen smiled and said, “Seems like we aren’t late, the one in front should be that brat named Li Muhua.”
Mo Qianni went from her initial panic and worry to excitement and fun. Secretly tailing someone like this made her feel totally different from the norm, but as they were about to arrive at Jinzewan, she began to worry about their safety, and couldn’t help but ask, “How are we going to go over? Are we going to send the money alongside Li Muhua?”
“Silly chick, if I wanted to go alongside Li Muhua to send the money, why would I turn off the lights and secretly tail him instead of letting him notice me?”
Mo Qianni was called a silly chick again, but she didn’t get angry, she just felt that the two of them had become a lot closer. She sweetly smiled, and no longer spoke.
