Chapter 188: Zhang Shu's Phone Call
Su Chen's body shuddered upon hearing that.
Damn it.
Was this Sister Qian way too unreliable?
She just betrayed him like that.
"Honey, I'll go get you some spicy hot pot right now!" Seeing that things were taking a turn for the worse, Su Chen decided it was best to make a quick exit.
"Get back here!" Lin Xi bellowed angrily.
"Uh, honey, don't you want spicy hot pot? I'm getting it for you right now..." Su Chen stood in front of Lin Xi with his body hunched over, just like a little quail.
"I don't want spicy hot pot, I want to eat your flesh!" Lin Xi said through gritted teeth.
"Honey, I'll go get you spicy hot pot!" Seeing that Lin Xi was about to explode, Su Chen quickly ran out of the villa.
Bang!
A loud noise.
It was the sound of a fruit knife sticking into the door panel.
Lucky he ran fast.
Not long after leaving the villa, Su Chen's phone rang.
He was somewhat surprised; it was the call from the beautiful Mayor Zhang Shu.
"Xiao Gao, immediately bring my official seal to my house..." Before he could speak, Zhang Shu's voice came through from the other end of the phone.
Xiao Gao? Official seal?
Su Chen was utterly baffled.
What was this situation?
Su Chen's first reaction was that Zhang Shu had dialed the wrong number.
But then he had another guess and said sternly, "Right now?"
"That's right, right now." Zhang Shu responded.
Zhang Shu's reply confirmed Su Chen's suspicion.
"Okay, please wait."
After hanging up, Su Chen immediately dialed another phone number.
"Beilong, help me locate the exact position of the number that just called me, accurate to within five meters!" Su Chen called the North Dragon King.
"Right now? I'm busy working..." A somewhat rushed voice came through from the phone.
Su Chen was slightly taken aback, about to call someone else, when suddenly the sound of a woman's voice could be heard from the other end.
He immediately realized what this guy was doing.
"Damn it, you have one minute. Otherwise, you can forget about 'working' ever again!" Su Chen said viciously.
North Dragon King shivered immediately, he knew what Su Chen was capable of.
Last time, the East Dragon King offended Su Chen and ended up having a certain function sealed for a month, almost driving him crazy.
In just under a minute, an address appeared on Su Chen's phone.
He hailed a taxi and told the driver, "Get to Jiangya Bieyuan in twenty minutes."
"Twenty minutes? Why don't you drive then?" The taxi driver rolled his eyes.
It's at least twenty kilometers away from Jiangya Bieyuan; on the highway, twenty minutes would be no problem.
But this is the city, not to mention twenty minutes, an hour would be good going.
"Fine, I'll drive." Without another word, Su Chen pulled open the driver's door, then attempted to yank the driver out.
That's when he realized the taxi driver was actually the female taxi driver Yang Lan.
However, Su Chen was in no mood to ponder the coincidence and simply said, "Get out."
"You expect me to get out just because you say so, why should I listen to you?" Yang Lan was quite annoyed by Su Chen's commanding tone.
Su Chen didn't bother with idle talk and simply unfastened Yang Lan's seatbelt, forcibly lifting her out of the car.
"What are you doing, let go of me!" Yang Lan continued to hit Su Chen's back with her hands.
Su Chen put Yang Lan down on the ground, then got into the taxi.
"Are you going to wait here for me, or come with me?" Su Chen asked.
"I'll go with you!" Yang Lan seemed to realize that Su Chen was in a hurry and got into the passenger seat.
Once Yang Lan had fastened her seatbelt, the taxi took off like an arrow shot from a bow. Publication courtesy of M|V|LE-MPYR.
"Stop the car, stop, there's a red light ahead."
"You can't cross that solid line..."
"...."
"My driver's license points..."
Yang Lan wanted to cry but had no tears.
In just a few minutes, Su Chen had already broken the traffic laws five or six times.
He managed to drive a Volkswagen Langyi as if it were a Lamborghini.
In just eighteen minutes and fifty seconds, the taxi smoothly came to a stop at Jiangya Bieyuan.
Getting out, he handed Yang Lan a hundred bucks and generously said no need for change, then strode towards Jiangya Bieyuan.
"No need for change my ass!" Yang Lan was furious and could have bitten Su Chen to death.
With so many traffic violations along the way, there would likely be a few thousand yuan in fines.
Not to mention the points on her driver's license.
This is it, with so many violations, it looked like her taxi-driving career was over.
On the seventh floor of Jiangya Bieyuan, inside a three-bedroom apartment.
On the sofa in the living room, a man in a suit was sitting.
The man held a small knife, leisurely trimming his nails.
Seeing the man with a charming smile on his face, Zhang Shu showed a deep sense of fear in her eyes.
Just now, she had witnessed the man throw his knife and pin a fly to the wall.
She was beginning to regret calling Su Chen.
Su Chen might be powerful, but this man's Flying Knife could even catch a fly unawares.
If a fly couldn't escape it, how could a person?
But now she couldn't even warn Su Chen.
Sweat slowly seeped from her forehead.
"Don't be nervous, just sign this document obediently, and I promise you won't be harmed," the man said with a wicked smile.
Just then, the man's phone suddenly rang. After answering, his face immediately darkened.
"You lousy bitch, you dare lie to me!"
He had just received news that Zhang Shu's secretary wasn't coming at all.
Zhang Shu trembled as well.
She hadn't called her secretary at all, so naturally, he wouldn't be coming.
But she didn't expect the other party to verify it.
Now she was in trouble.
The man slowly rose from the sofa and walked toward Zhang Shu.
Zhang Shu backed away involuntarily.
The man pushed her step by step into a corner.
Looking at Zhang Shu's pale face, the man regained his wicked smile and said, "Don't worry, I won't kill you. I'm just going to take some nice photos of you."
With that, he took out his phone, opened the camera app, aimed it at Zhang Shu, and gently flicked his Dagger.
Snap!
Zhang Shu's clothes were slit with a cut.
