Zhu Laosan had just obtained Zhang Liunian's formula and successfully developed it. How could he die before a confrontation with Zhang Liunian?
As long as Zhang Liunian was alive, Tang Shidong did not want Zhu Laosan to die.
After their conversation, Tang Shidong left with satisfaction.
As soon as he left, Wu Gudi cautiously entered. "Xiao Zhu Zhu, let me wipe your body for you."
When they returned yesterday, Zhu Laosan had been lying in bed, receiving treatment. Now that he had finally stabilized, Wu Gudi wanted to clean him up.
However, Zhu Laosan had no intention of being clean. Instead, he asked her to close the door, stand in front of him, and start undressing. Ignoring Wu Gudi's mortified expression, he then beckoned her to sit on him.
Zhu Laosan had walked through the gates of hell yesterday and was not at peace.
At this very moment, he just wanted to calm his mind through such actions.
Wu Gudi didn't know why Zhu Laosan wanted her to do this, but she obediently followed his instructions.
Meanwhile, Zhang Liunian and two others had already kicked down the door and stormed into Tang Guo's room.
As soon as they entered, they ran into an elderly woman moving a desk.
The nanny did not expect anyone to arrive so soon. She immediately put down the desk and tried to run, but Zhang Liunian grabbed her and threw her to the ground.
"Keep an eye on her, don't let her leave. I'll search again." Seeing an old woman moving things, Zhang Liunian realized something was wrong. He dropped this sentence and looked around for Tang Guo.
Unfortunately, he searched the entire house and couldn't find her.
"Tell me, where did Tang Guo go?" Since he couldn't find her, Zhang Liunian had to ask the elderly woman.
The elderly woman looked at the murderous Zhang Liunian, her heart pounding. She was just a very ordinary cooking auntie and had never seen such a situation. So, when Zhang Liunian stared at her and questioned her, she unhesitatingly revealed Tang Guo's whereabouts.
"I heard her calling her third uncle and saying she was going to the airport."
"Going to the airport? When did she leave?" Zhang Liunian cursed under his breath. If she managed to get on a plane, he would have to bear all the consequences for the department store.
"Just now," the elderly woman replied honestly, not hiding anything.
This made Zhang Liunian feel that things were going a bit too smoothly. But now was not the time to ponder such things; he had to get to the airport quickly and find Tang Guo.
"Team leader, you stay here and keep an eye on her. Xiao Qian and I will pursue. We'll deal with this person when we get back." Although things were going smoothly, Zhang Liunian didn't have time to think much about it. He took Zhang Qian and got into the car, heading for the airport.
What the two of them didn't know was that there were already many obstacles waiting for them on this road, which was why Tang Guo didn't avoid the nanny when calling Tang Shidong.
Because she knew that even if Zhang Liunian came now, he wouldn't be able to catch her.
"Screech..."
Zhang Liunian personally drove, turning left and skidding, charging into the crowd, startling pedestrians into screaming and dodging.
"Liunian Ge, the person in that rickshaw is Tang Guo." Zhang Qian, sitting beside him, suddenly saw a rickshaw ahead. A woman in it was even sticking her head out, and her face looked exactly like Tang Guo's.
Zhang Liunian looked up, and naturally, he saw nothing, but this didn't stop him from continuing the pursuit.
He accelerated, speeding along.
Tang Guo, inside the rickshaw ahead, was now certain that the pickup truck following them closely behind was Zhang Liunian and the others. Estimating that there was still some distance between them, she triumphantly reached out and waved, as if teasing a dog.
Only then did Zhang Liunian finally see Tang Guo. He instantly increased his horsepower, and before long, he was about to catch up. This made the confident Tang Guo a little flustered, as Zhang Liunian's car had not encountered any accidents so far. To continue moving forward, she said to the rickshaw driver in front, "Master, hurry up. I'll pay you double." As she spoke, she took out a handful of money from her bag and stuffed it into the driver's pocket.
Seeing the money, the old master immediately pedaled as if he had wind-fire wheels, increasing his speed. He also took small alleys, and after his actions, he actually managed to shake off Zhang Liunian and the others for a while.
But when they turned back onto the main road, Zhang Liunian's pickup truck reappeared before long.
This time, no matter how hard the master pedaled, the distance between them grew closer and closer.
Tang Guo, in the car, was extremely nervous, wondering if her third uncle hadn't handled things properly for her.
Zhang Liunian and Zhang Qian, who were about to catch up, were very excited. But just as they were about to catch Tang Guo, Zhang Liunian's car suddenly got a flat tire.
Due to the flat tire, the car's steering was instantly lost, and it crashed directly into a utility pole by the roadside.
"Protect your heads!" Zhang Liunian shouted and covered his head. Zhang Qian also covered his head and crouched down.
Then there was a loud "bang!" as the car hit the utility pole.
One minute later, Zhang Liunian and Zhang Qian both emerged from the car. They had suffered minor injuries but were not seriously hurt.
This was thanks to Zhang Liunian's warning to protect their heads in the car; otherwise, their hands would not be sore now, but their heads would be bleeding.
With the car broken and unable to move, Zhang Liunian didn't bother to figure out why the tire had blown. He said to Zhang Qian, "Why don't you wait for me here?" Then he strode over to a man riding a bicycle, took out five hundred, bought the man's used bicycle, and mounted it to leave.
But as soon as he sat down, Zhang Qian also came over and sat on the back of the bicycle. "I'll go with you. Two people can look out for each other."
Zhang Liunian did not speak. He pedaled the bicycle and continued to chase.
The rickshaw had already disappeared from their sight, but Zhang Liunian was not going to give up. He took Zhang Qian and continued to speed forward. As his sweat soaked his clothes, he finally saw the rickshaw again.
However, before they could get close, dozens of people wearing black clothes and pants, carrying sticks, and smoking cigarettes suddenly appeared in front of them, successfully blocking the road ahead and showing no intention of letting Zhang Liunian and Zhang Qian pass.
Zhang Liunian immediately braked, realizing that the car accident was deliberate, and the situation in front of him was also deliberate.
He really wanted to give Tang Guo a thumbs-up for arranging things to this extent.
He stopped the bicycle and signaled Zhang Qian to get off.
"What's going on?" Zhang Qian came to Zhang Liunian's side, exclaiming in surprise as he looked at the suddenly appearing crowd.
"It's likely that Tang Guo and the others anticipated our actions and plan to stop us from pursuing."
After speaking, Zhang Liunian pulled out an iron rod from his body and instructed Zhang Qian, "Protect yourself."
It was dark, and the light was not very good. He didn't know how many people were on the other side, but he knew that if he didn't take down all these people, he wouldn't be able to continue his pursuit.
"Liunian Ge, don't worry about me." Zhang Qian, afraid of holding Zhang Liunian back, specifically warned him.
Zhang Liunian did not speak and walked forward.
The black-clad captain on the opposite side saw Zhang Liunian holding a weapon, spat out the cigarette in his mouth, crushed it with his foot, and said unhurriedly, "Kid, put down your weapon and come with us. You can avoid the physical pain. What do you say?"
"What if I don't?" Zhang Liunian approached the man to within one meter and threw the remaining two sections of the iron rod.
