Chapter 1069: Chapter 1063 Someone is Following

After leaving the restaurant, Lu Tianxing and Bai Zhiqing didn’t linger, instead, they drove straight back to the hotel.

After everything that happened, neither of them had any mood to savor the hairy crabs. Of course, this wasn’t Lu Tianxing, but Bai Zhiqing who had lost her appetite. The events of the day reminded her of the trip to Beijing; having been in Suzhou for less than a day, such things had already happened, and she couldn’t calm down.

The BMW X5 cruised down the road. Bai Zhiqing opened the car window, letting the cold wind brush her delicate face, turned her head to look at Lu Tianxing, and said softly, ”Lu Tianxing, that Liang Shidao is problematic.”

”Honey, you noticed it too.”

Lu Tianxing glanced at Bai Zhiqing and slowly said, ”Actually, Liang Shidao had noticed the conflict between Zhou Sihao and me a long time ago but just chose not to intervene, hiding in the shadows and watching. It wasn’t until Zhou Sihao and I completely tore into each other that he came down from upstairs.”

Upon hearing Lu Tianxing’s words, Bai Zhiqing frowned and said, ”Lu Tianxing, according to you, since Liang Shidao saw the whole thing, why didn’t he come down to stop it and instead watched the drama unfold? He only appeared at the end to speak favorably towards Zhou Sihao, was that all just to gain Zhou Sihao’s favor?”

”Of course not. He belongs to the Liang Family from Suzhou, which isn’t much weaker than the Zhou Family. There’s no need for him to gain Zhou Sihao’s favor. He wasn’t there because he wanted to see me and Zhou Sihao tear each other apart.”

Lu Tianxing sneered. He wasn’t foolish, and it was clear to him.

The timing of Liang Shidao’s appearance was too coincidental, almost impossibly so. The conflict between him and Zhou Sihao should have long since alerted the entire restaurant, yet even though Liang Shidao was clearly in the restaurant, he didn’t appear until they had thoroughly torn into each other, which undoubtedly suggested something was wrong.

The reason he was being amicable with Liang Shidao and didn’t expose Liang Shidao’s trickery was because he didn’t fully grasp what Liang Shidao was up to. It wasn’t necessary to tear into him and make enemies all around.

”Lu Tianxing, you mean to say that Liang Shidao deliberately waited until you and Zhou Sihao had torn into each other, then came out to intervene with the intention of causing you to fall out with the Zhou Family, from which he could benefit from the fallout?” Bai Zhiqing said.

Lu Tianxing said calmly, ”He can’t benefit from the fallout, nor does he have the ability to do so. Today’s matter, a simple analysis can deduce his intentions; he’s been standing by idly, and this tactic is merely to use me to suppress Zhou Sihao a bit.”

”Then why didn’t you point this out, but instead went along with Liang Shidao’s suggestion to let Zhou Sihao off?”

”Honey, you don’t understand. Although I could teach Zhou Sihao a lesson, I cannot kill him. Sidelining or killing Zhou Sihao would truly break things with the Zhou Family. Liang Shidao using my hand to suppress the Zhou Family seems similar to me using his hand to bolster my influence. If I were to join the Lu Family, I might find myself beset from all sides. As long as Liang Shidao doesn’t fall out with me, he can assist me from the shadows, while I can use him to learn about the Lu Family.”

”But in dealing with such a person, you must be very cautious, Liang Shidao strikes me as someone two-faced, saying one thing publicly and another privately. You need to be exceedingly careful doing business with a person like this, or who knows when he might stab you in the back.”

”Don’t worry, honey, I’ll be careful.”

Lu Tianxing nodded. Liang Shidao seemed amiable, but his depth was immeasurable; with a surface smile, it was impossible to gauge his true thoughts. He might be smiling in front of you one moment, but the next he could be stabbing you in the back.

Seeing Lu Tianxing’s demeanor, Bai Zhiqing suddenly sighed and said, ”Lu Tianxing, I suddenly feel a bit sorry for Liang Shidao, of all people, he chose to scheme against you.”

”Honey, what do you mean by that? It sounds like I’m some kind of villain. I’m an upstanding citizen, you know,” Lu Tianxing retorted.

Bai Zhiqing shot Lu Tianxing a glance. Those four words—upstanding citizen—could only have been spoken by someone as thick-skinned as Lu Tianxing. If Lu Tianxing were an upstanding citizen, then the whole world would be full of them.

Suddenly, Lu Tianxing’s brows furrowed as his gaze discreetly swept across the rear-view mirror and a flash of ice-cold killing intent crossed his face.

Bai Zhiqing immediately sensed Lu Tianxing’s change. She looked at him and said sternly, ”Lu Tianxing, what’s wrong?”

”Nothing, just a few little rats showing up.”

Lu Tianxing’s lips curled into a bloodthirsty smile, ”I didn’t expect that as soon as I arrived in Suzhou, some people were so restless to take action against me. I’m truly honored.”

Upon hearing Lu Tianxing’s words, Bai Zhiqing paused slightly, somewhat puzzled, and said, ”Lu Tianxing, are you saying Zhou Sihao intends to make a move against you?”

”Not sure, but since they dare to come, let’s slaughter them.”

Lu Tianxing chuckled coldly, suddenly maneuvering the steering wheel, diverting from the road back to the hotel, driving in another direction.

Killing someone requires selecting a place of serenity and beauty.

Following behind Lu Tianxing were two cars: one black sedan and one silver-gray van. Inside the black sedan, a middle-aged man sitting in the passenger seat noticed Lu Tianxing’s car making a turn and couldn’t help but frown.

”Boss Liu, it seems he discovered us.” The driver spoke.

The middle-aged man sneered and said, ”So what if he has? Follow him. The master said this time, as long we kill him, I’m free. He must die.”

Lu Tianxing’s lips formed a mocking smile as he looked through the rear-view mirror at the black sedan tightly tailing him, his eyes flickering with intense murderous intent.

”Hold tight, honey, let’s find a serene spot for them to rest eternally.”

Lu Tianxing’s face showed derision.

Upon hearing Lu Tianxing’s words, Bai Zhiqing’s mind inadvertently flashed back to past images of Lu Tianxing, instinctively clutching both sides, and then she felt a strong surge of acceleration. The scenery out the window receded swiftly like a flash of lightning, and the car speed suddenly increased to its utmost.

In everyone’s eyes, the once steadily cruising BMW X5 suddenly turned into an awakened beast. The engine roared abruptly, and then it sprinted like a gray lightning bolt, ferociously speeding through the busy streets.

”Hmph, can he escape? Keep up.”

The middle-aged man in the black sedan sneered, immediately instructing them to follow.

In an instant, on the broad road, the two cars raced frantically, with speeds reaching the extreme, darting through the traffic like lightning.

On the street, everyone felt an overwhelming rush, barely catching the roar before realizing the car had raced past their side, its speed imaginable.

It seemed as if someone had pressed this matter down; the two cars were racing down the road, yet no traffic police intervened; it was a series of green lights as if no one saw the vehicles at all.
