Chapter 218 - I Don't dare to Fight Back Even If I Were to Slap Him to Death

“What kind of car is this?” Mr. Bao couldn't help but inquire.

To emerge from an accident with such minimal damage was a testament to the car's quality. But to describe this particular vehicle as simply ‘good quality' would be an understatement—it was extraordinary. One couldn't help but wonder how such an exceptional car could exist!

“Are we leaving or not? If we don't get moving, it'll be too late,” Zhang Xiaolong stated, though he had no intention of revealing that he had personally modified the car.

This was a modification like no other, unique in the world with no equal.

Without further hesitation, Chu Wenwen and her companion quickly leapt onto the roadside lion.

“Where are you headed?” Zhang Xiaolong asked, despite having been told by Yang Jingjing earlier.

“We're going to Donghua Mall,” Mr. Bao replied, no longer concerned with the car's peculiarities. “The one nearest to Soaring Dragon Company.”

“Alright, everyone, buckle up!” Zhang Xiaolong said, and with everyone settled, he floored the accelerator.

?Chu Wenwen and the others had been pressed for time and initially wanted to urge the driver to go faster. But now, both she and Mr. Bao opted for silence. Even if they had something to say, it would probably be to plead for a slower pace...

Seriously, did this car have wings? It was terrifying!

Before they could fully recover from their shock, the car came to a halt, and they finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Riding in this car made all previous hardships seem like fond memories—at least then, they were still alive. Unlike the harrowing experience of feeling like they could vanish at any moment while in the vehicle...

“Alright, you two, we're here. This is the underground parking lot of Donghua Mall. Take the elevator up, and you'll arrive at your destination,” Zhang Xiaolong informed them.

Cheng Yanyan and Mrs. Yang were momentarily taken aback, then erupted into laughter.

“Chu Wenwen, you're truly contemptible. I assumed you'd snagged some wealthy upstart, but to think you're with a mere farmer who digs in the dirt for a living—it's hilarious!” Cheng Yanyan clutched her stomach, nearly doubled over with laughter.

Mrs. Yang looked at her with scorn. “I found you such a solid supporter, and you turned him down. If you had chosen a decent man, I might have respected you. But to think you'd stoop to letting some filthy farmer touch you—I must have been blind to even consider mentoring you!”

“Ugh!” Chu Wenwen couldn't contain her rage any longer. “Your idea of mentoring is pushing me to sleep with those repulsive men? Maybe you should take your own advice. I'd rather leave this circle than degrade myself like you!”

“To think you've grown so audacious and sharp-tongued after all these years. Do you believe you have a strong backer? A filthy farmer—I could slap him to death today, and he wouldn't dare fight back!” Mrs. Yang sneered, raising her hand to strike Zhang Xiaolong once more.

But she overestimated herself. Before her hand could connect, Zhang Xiaolong swiftly grabbed her by the collar and sent her flying in an arc.

Crash!

Mrs. Yang collided with a car, the very one they had intended to drive away.

It was unclear whether the impact was genuinely severe or if Zhang Xiaolong had skillfully applied his strength. Regardless, the car window shattered, scattering glass everywhere. Mrs. Yang screamed as if she were in agony, although she hadn't actually been hurt.

“Help! I've been assaulted!” Cheng Yanyan hadn't anticipated that Zhang Xiaolong would truly resort to violence. She immediately began to yell for help.

Security guards were on duty in the underground parking lot, and two of them quickly responded to the commotion.

“It was him! He attacked me and even damaged our car!” Cheng Yanyan accused, pointing at Zhang Xiaolong. “Detain him! I'm going to call the authorities right away!”

Initially, the security guards were inclined to assist Cheng Yanyan, the up-and-coming star performing at the company. However, upon recognizing the man she was accusing, they realized their assistance was unnecessary.

While others might not be familiar with Zhang Xiaolong, the staff of the East Light Group certainly were. He was often seen in the company of Lee Donghua, and even the least perceptive among them could tell that his status was significant.

“Mr. Zhang, please excuse us. We'll be on our way,” the security guards said, nodding respectfully before turning to leave.
