Chapter 54

At this planting point, the Nest Club is still buzzing with people. On the dance floor on the first floor, dim lights flickered, the music shook the sky, and men and women danced face to face, creating a sense of excitement.

There is a whole round glass window on the second floor, and the light is dim.

Chen Sheng was paralyzed on the sofa, with a woman in his arms, squinting at the fun scene downstairs.

For a moment, his nerves tensed, and something squeezed open from the blood vessel. Chen Sheng felt cold all over, his skin was itchy, and he shivered uncontrollably. He moved his hand to the woman's chest and pinched it desperately.

The woman screamed and flung her arms away.

Chen Sheng curled up, bared his teeth, and looked at her with a ferocious face, she knew what was wrong with him.

The woman fetched the tool, knelt down at his feet, pulled his arm and tied the rubber band tightly...

Once failed, he asked the woman to increase the dose.

After the excitement passed, she was paralyzed and sat for a while, then she helped him up and walked out of the room.

A few black-clothed bodyguards followed immediately. For two months, he had not acted alone. Leaving Qiu Shizu, Lu Qiang is bullshit. During the confrontation last year, he had already figured out his background, and he didn't pay attention to Lu Qiang at all. The car accident that day made Chen Sheng feel that he had truly defeated him.

Although today is different from the past, but he has a lot of calculations, has people around him, and has always been cautious.

Walk through the corridor and take the elevator to the basement level. The parking lot is empty and gloomy, with the headlights emitting a miserable white light. A group of people came over, their leather shoes stepped on the concrete floor, the echoes gathered, breaking the original silence.

Three black cars were parked in the corner, where the light was even darker. Chen Sheng walked among them, and subconsciously swept towards the car. There was a faint smoke lingering in the air. He paused with both feet, and stopped in vain. Blinking, and then looking in that direction, I realized that it was my own eyesight, and there was nothing at all.

The bodyguard behind him was alert and just wanted to step forward to check. Chen Sheng stopped him and waved his hand, "It's okay, let's get in the car and go back."

Chen Sheng and the woman got into the first car. He leaned back in the seat and closed his eyes. The person next to him rubbed against him. He raised his arm and hugged her. The driver was also huge. He glanced in the rearview mirror and saw that they were sitting firmly. He took the walkie-talkie and explained a few words.

He put on the headset, started the car, and put his fingers on the center control button. It was only two seconds late. Suddenly, the rear door was pulled open forcefully, and the car body sank. A burly figure bowed his body, Butt sitting on the seat behind the co-pilot.

Chen Sheng opened his eyes in horror, turned his head to look over, and his whole body shuddered.

Lu Qiang came over so blatantly, wearing a thin black sweater and wide-leg linen trousers. He spread his legs apart, leaned lazily on the back of the chair, biting a cigarette at the corner of his mouth, and looked forward with half-lidded eyes, not at him.

The driver realized that the situation was not good, so he said a few words into the headset, and the bodyguard rushed over behind him, and someone opened the door on Lu Qiang's side.

Lu Qiang still didn't move, and didn't use his hand to hold the cigarette. He took a puff, and the smoke slowly spread out from the end of his nose.

Chen Sheng regained his composure and regained his composure: "Hehe, rare visitor."

Lu Qiang let out a snort.

The bodyguard grabbed Lu Qiang's arm, trying to drag him out of the car, but he didn't move at all.

Chen Sheng looked at him, waved his hand outward, the bodyguard let go, and took two steps back.

"I'm so free today, Brother Qiang," he called out in an indifferent voice, and let out a sigh of relief: "Could it be that my sister-in-law was rescued, and she didn't die?"

Lu Qiang's expression was unclear, he pinched the body of the cigarette with his thumb and forefinger, inhaled it fully, and blew lightly.

Chen Sheng looked at him for a moment, shivering his body and shrugging his nose: "What kind of show is that little girl, she fascinated you so much that she just ran here by herself?"

Not seeing him getting angry, he rubbed the butt of the cigarette between his fingers for a moment, then dropped his hand and crushed it on the expensive seat between his legs.

Chen Sheng watched his movements, the corners of his mouth curled down, already displeased. He sucked his nose tightly twice, and smiled subtly: "What's the matter? Brother Qiang, what do you mean?"

Lu Qiang said: "You should have thought, I have to come to you."

He raised his eyebrows: "I really didn't expect that. I knew I would have run over that little girl with a truck."

Lu Qiang smiled lightly: "It's up to you this time."

The corners of Chen Sheng's upturned mouth froze and pulled, revealing the jagged silver teeth inside. He couldn't see Lu Qiang's conceited face, and even hated his aura of strategizing and controlling everything. Chen Sheng snorted coldly, opened the door beside him, pushed the woman out, stopped talking nonsense, and waved back: "Get in the car, go to the warehouse."

There are seven burly men in the group, each of whom has received special training, or has a thick body, and a buttock can crush a person. There is a machete and dagger in the back box, Chen Sheng is unconscious now, and the only thought in his mind is to kill him.

Lu Qiang has only one person, so head-to-head encounters won't gain the slightest advantage.

Three cars drove out of the urban area at high speed, along the train tracks, and headed for the warehouse two and a half kilometers away.

Lu Qiang rested his head on the back of the chair and looked out of the window without any haste or fear. The interior of the carriage was unpredictable, and he flicked the lighter in his hand, as if counting the beat, waiting for the opportunity to move.

Chen Sheng slumped on the seat, his body almost slipped down, his eyes opened slits, and his mouth curled, interpreting his behavior as panic. He rubbed his index finger on the end of his nose: "Why don't you try to beg me?"

Lu Qiang paused with his fingers, and turned the lower wheel again. The car took a turn along the road, bypassed several factory buildings and drove back.

It was dark, and there was no one outside the window, except for two street lamps standing alone. A straight road and railway tracks extend in different directions.

At the intersection ahead, there is a dilapidated sentry box, and a person is vaguely seen standing at the door, waving the red flag in his hand, demanding to stop.

The driver stepped on the foot brake and slowed down.

Lu Qiang looked serious, and with a click, a cluster of flames finally lit up brightly. He let go of his hand, and the carriage completely returned to darkness.

Everything happened in the blink of an eye, Lu Qiang suddenly grabbed Chen Sheng's hair, and slammed it into the opposite car window, pulled it back, covered his forehead with the other hand, twisted left and right, before Chen Sheng had time to react, he went into shock instantly.

The driver's pupils dilated, he looked into the rearview mirror, touched down, and grabbed the iron rod under the seat, which was already shouting into the headset.

From the corner of his eye, Lu Qiang saw that the traffic pole beside the sentry box was slowly falling down. He supported his body with his arms, and with the strength of his waist, his legs flew up, and he kicked the driver's temple, causing the glass to burst.

Before he could make a move on the iron rod, Lu Qiang had already thrown him out of the car.

Lu Qiang took control of the driver's seat, slammed the door, and glanced at the rearview mirror. Several bodyguards were rushing in this direction.

He looked ahead, the traffic pole had been lowered by half, accompanied by the rumbling sound of the horn, and the lights of the train in the distance were brightly lit. Lu Qiang's cheeks were tense, he stomped on the accelerator for half a moment, and drove past the traffic pole.

The moment the headlights illuminated the carriage from the side, Lu Qiang understood Lu Yin's fear that day.

***

When Chen Sheng woke up, he was lying on the cold, hard and damp ground. The surroundings were dim, and he could vaguely distinguish an empty and potholed dirt road with dense leaves, mountains and water.

He sat up with his arms propped up, his neck ached, he turned his head left and right, saw a figure, and shrank his body in shock.

His car was parked not far away, its fire turned off, quietly lurking in the darkness.

The driver's door was wide open, and Lu Qiang was sitting facing out, with one leg on the inside of the car and the other leg straight on the ground. He put his arms on his knees, a little scarlet on his fingertips, flickering on and off between his lips.

Chen Sheng looked around subconsciously, it was empty, and none of his people followed. He swallowed: "What is this place?"

"Mount Qi Luo."

Chen Sheng inhaled secretly, the barren mountains and wild ridges here are completely different from the Chaohui warehouse, and at night, there are no shadows of ghosts.

He looked a little flustered: "What do you want?"

"What do you think?" He glanced lightly at the people on the ground.

Chen Sheng was not afraid of him before, because he had several well-trained bodyguards by his side, seven of them were one, and he was sure to win. But when Lu Qiang fought alone, Lu Qiang was as big as a beast, but he was slender. When fighting, he couldn't win a single move. It wasn't that the group of bodyguards were unresponsive, it was just that he underestimated Lu Qiang after all his calculations.

Chen Sheng's mind turned back and forth, "There may be a misunderstanding among us."

"What a misunderstanding."

"The two of us have no enmity or grudge, so why bother to keep pestering each other."

Lu Qiang sat without moving, snorted coldly, lowered his head, took a sip of the cigarette, and flicked it. After a while, she stood up and walked to his side, kicking his chest.

Chen Sheng snorted, his butt slipped half a meter.

Lu Qiang's tone was light, and he said word by word: "You shouldn't, you shouldn't, you shouldn't touch my woman."

He coughed lowly: "I also acted according to Old Qiu's orders, but in fact I couldn't help myself." He paused: "I was just pretending to be a tiger, and said those cruel words to you, because I was a little unconvinced at the beginning, and I just wanted to anger you."

"Yeah?"

"Old Qiu was afraid that you would reveal the information to the police, so he asked me to find someone to deal with you directly. I went to you the other day, and when I came back, I told Elder Qiu that he didn't trust you, so he insisted on me teaching you a lesson, and let you Shut up."

Lu Qiang stepped on his chest: "Are you telling the truth?"

"Truth."

"It's also his intention to move Lu Yin?"

Chen Sheng licked his lips: "Yes."

"So it seems that you are just following orders?"

Chen Sheng said: "You have talked to Mr. Qiu before, and his style of handling things should be very clear."

Lu Qiang glanced at him for a while, then moved his feet away. Chen Sheng had no strength to restrain a chicken, and let others manipulate him. He was completely different from the arrogance and domineering just now. He threw away the cigarette and put his hands back into his trouser pockets. The phone inside vibrated twice, but he didn't take it out to look at it.

Chen Sheng looked at his expression through the moonlight, covered his chest and stood up slowly: "Old Qiu is such a ruthless person, you and I both know that he will do anything to protect Xiaozhen."

Lu Qiang didn't say a word, he lowered his head and lit a cigarette.

Chen Sheng said: "If you don't believe me, just kill me today. Anyway, there is no one breathing here. Nobody knows, no one knows."

Lu Qiang raised his head and exhaled smoke rings.

He continued: "I would like to be with you..."

"You go."

"What?" Chen Sheng widened his eyes in surprise.

"Before I change my mind."

Chen Sheng shifted his toes subconsciously, towards the empty road ahead: "Why did you suddenly..."

Lu Qiang smiled inexplicably: "There is a wrong and a debtor, I should go to Qiu Shizu."

Chen Sheng took half a step: "Don't be impulsive."

"roll."

"I can help you."

"roll."

Chen Sheng shut up, took a few steps back diagonally, and looked at it for a while. Lu Qiang stood there without moving.

He quickly turned his head and rushed towards the only bright road in his vision.

Chen Sheng grinned from the corner of his mouth to his ears, with a look of disdain: "Idiot."

***

In order to cooperate with the police in handling the case, the cruise ship docked for a long time.

Xing Weixin was anxious like an ant on a hot pan. Qiu Zhen waited at the gate, and the staff asked to cooperate with the inspection on the pretext of going there twice. The time was delayed for almost half an hour, and there was no other reason to obstruct the intervention.

Set off on time ten minutes later, Qiu Zhen can leave the country by boat immediately, and then fly to another country, and he will be at large forever.

Xing Weixin put his waist down, looked at the crowd of figures at the gate through the floor-to-ceiling windows, Qiu Zhen was dressed in black, tall and straight, with a healthy complexion, and calmly talked to the people around him in a low voice.

Xing Weixin's face became more and more serious, he took out his mobile phone from his pocket, and pressed the number again...

***

Chen Sheng was out of breath, getting closer and closer to the light. From time to time, a car sped past on the road and disappeared from his eyes with a whoosh.

He was so bright with the medicine today, he was weaker than before, his mind was confused, his feet trembled, and he still kept running forward.

Hope was right in front of him, he opened his mouth and laughed.

With a bang, he stopped in his tracks.

Chen Sheng turned his head, and the headlights of the car behind him suddenly turned on. He raised his arm to block his eyes, and the open space was as bright as day.

The black car slowly approached him, and Chen Sheng's hairs stood on end before he realized Lu Qiang's intentions. He stumbled and almost fell, and he didn't care about anything else, he just rolled and crawled forward.

The phone vibrated in his pocket, but Lu Qiang ignored it.

His lips were straight, his eyes were dark, and he kicked the accelerator to drive towards the embarrassed figure.

People are more flexible than cars, Chen Sheng dodges left and right, rolls to the side, gets up, and runs in the opposite direction.

Lu Qiang slammed on the brakes, downshifted, the center of gravity of the car moved forward, he slammed the steering wheel, and the rear of the car was thrown out, causing dust to fly on the ground.

Chen Sheng had already run a certain distance, the speed of the car was extremely fast, and the scene of two cars colliding that day appeared before Lu Qiang's eyes. Lu Yin was lying on the bottom of the car covered in blood, dying; she was fighting death in the operating room, the scars on her chest and the top of her head, her shaved head...

Lu Qiang stepped on the soles of his feet more and more tightly, and Chen Sheng was in front of him. As long as he persisted for two more seconds and pressed over him, all the hatred would disappear.

Chen Sheng was short of breath, his whole body seemed to be bitten by thousands of ants, his skin was cold, and his blood vessels were about to explode. He couldn't hold on any longer, his feet went limp, and he fell to the ground.

Using both hands and feet, Chen Sheng climbed a few steps, turned over, and rubbed his buttocks with his arms. The speed of the car was extremely fast, and it was about to run over him. His pupils dilated and he roared in horror.

The front of the car ran over his feet, and Chen Sheng got stuck in his throat and couldn't get out. The speed of the car remained the same, covering his legs, he only felt a stream of liquid rolling out of his throat, his temples were swollen and painful, and his eyeballs seemed to burst.

But at this moment, the front of the car came to a sudden stop close to his nose, and Lu Qiang stepped on the brakes. In a short period of time, some images in his mind were played backwards. They tried on the cheongsam together and kissed in the car; it rained on the day of receiving the marriage certificate; Lingering, she begged and wept.

Time quickly reversed, back to the first meeting, she was standing in the rain in a white wedding dress, she looked at him with fearful and disgusting eyes, she stood in the corridor and said softly "husband". Also, the first time he kissed her was right here, in the small boat under Mount Qiluo.

Finally, he remembered Qian Yuanqing's last instructions to him at the train station that day.

Lu Qiang stepped on the brakes.

He pushed open the door and took two steps forward. Chen Sheng twitched all over, foamed at the mouth, and buried half of his body under the car.

The car parked just right and didn't touch Chen Sheng at all.

Lu Qiang walked a few steps away and lit a cigarette.

The phone vibrated in his pocket again, he calmed down and picked it up this time.

Xing Weixin obviously didn't expect him to answer the call, he was stunned for a few seconds, before he could speak, he said, "I surrender myself."

***

At two thirty in the morning, at the airport.

Lu Yin didn't wait for him.

After Genzi explained everything, she listened to it with a confused expression, without shedding tears, and without clamoring to go back.

She asked Genzi: "So there's only one ticket ever?"

He nods.

Lu Yin bit her lip, afraid of hearing the answer, she still asked, "Will Lu Qiang be in danger?"

Genzi was taken aback, and quickly shook his head to lie to her: "No."

"He wants me to go?"

"This is the safest way. Qiu Shizu is very snobbish, and Brother Qiang is even more afraid of being hurt by others."

Lu Yin lowered her head and stared at the ticket in her hand for a long time, half an hour before the plane took off.

Genzi was anxious, but he didn't dare to urge him.

After a few seconds, she took a deep breath: "OK."

Genzi said: "Sister-in-law, you have memorized my number, settle down there, and send me the contact information."

Lu Yin nodded. She tried to make herself smile nicely: "Then I'm leaving."

She only brought a carry-on bag, turned around and walked towards the security checkpoint.

"Sister-in-law, wait." He suddenly called again.

Lu Yin stopped, Gen Zi caught up: "Brother Qiang has something else for me to bring to you."

Lu Yin pursed her lips.

"He said that when we meet again, he will stand in front of you innocently." Genzi paused: "He asked you to wait for her."

In an instant, Lu Yin burst into tears.

She buried her head in it for a long time, and only said, "Got it."
