The woman glanced around at the entrance of the residential area and finally locked her eyes on the Rolls-Royce parked by the roadside.
Watching the woman approach with a handbag in hand, Ling Chen smirked slightly and unlocked all the car doors. Soon, the woman arrived close to the car, stood next to the rear door of the Rolls-Royce, reached out to grasp the handle, and prepared to get in.
However, just when Ling Chen was ready, intending to subdue the woman once she got in, she didn’t even open the car door. Instead, she imdiately turned around and started running back, in a jog.
Seeing this action, Ling Chen’s heart sank, and he glanced at Qi Houzhao on the rear seat. He could confirm that Qi Houzhao had been very honest, not saying a word or signaling the woman. Yet, the woman suddenly escaped, clearly sensing danger.
What a vigilant woman!
Ling Chen muttered to himself. At that mont, he couldn’t afford to overthink and hurriedly pushed open the car door, swiftly chasing in the direction the woman escaped.
At that mont, a taxi happened to drive up from the roadside. The woman quickly waved her hand to stop the taxi.
Want to leave... Hmph! It’s not that easy.
Ling Chen lightly tapped his toes, accelerating to his utmost, charging straight for the woman’s back, intending to catch her.
Before Ling Chen could reach the woman’s back, she suddenly turned her head while jogging in high heels, her arm extended horizontally. Seeing this, Ling Chen was startled. Sohow, the woman now had a small, silver lady’s handgun in her hand.
Ling Chen knew this type of gun well; its effective range was only ten ters and could only hold two bullets.
Just a woman!
Ling Chen thought inwardly. Even though the woman had a gun, it didn’t change the fact that she was a woman. In this country where guns are legal, everyone owns a gun, which is not surprising. However, the key is that having a gun and using it are two different things; he didn’t believe a woman’s shooting skills could be that advanced.
While thinking swiftly, Ling Chen did not hesitate, and his speed didn’t decrease. On the contrary, he beca faster.
Bam!
The gunshot rang out.
Being a small handgun, the gunshot wasn’t very crisp, but to Ling Chen, it was unmistakably clear. However, what shocked him the most was that the bullet flew right past his ear, almost hitting a vital point.
What remarkable shooting skills!
At that mont, Ling Chen broke into a cold sweat. He initially thought the woman’s shooting skills were diocre and could easily dodge, but who knew her marksmanship was not only precise but she also remained calm and unaffected by Ling Chen. Even at such close range, she remained composed.
Not simple!
Ling Chen, as a top marksman, knew this very well. The woman’s ntal fortitude and shooting skills were top-notch.
Thinking of this, Ling Chen dared not be careless, hurriedly slowing down. The woman’s handgun still had one bullet, but Ling Chen didn’t dare risk it easily, especially after witnessing her precise shooting skills.
In such a situation, he didn’t want both to suffer.
Ling Chen then casually reached into his pocket, took out a keychain, flicked his wrist gently, and the keychain swiftly flew toward the woman.
Bam!
A flash of fire, followed by another gunshot.
In an instant, Ling Chen’s thrown keychain was directly hit by the bullet and fell to the ground.
At the sa ti, the woman quickly opened the rear car door, jumped into the back seat. As the door closed, before Ling Chen could chase after, the taxi already sped off onto the road like lightning, instantly leaving Ling Chen behind. No matter how skilled Ling Chen was, he couldn’t possibly outrun a car on foot.
Watching the taxi disappear from view, Ling Chen returned to the Rolls-Royce, frowning slightly with unwillingness.
Seeing Qi Houzhao smoking a cigar in the back seat, Ling Chen snorted lightly and asked, "Did you tip her off?"
"Ling, don’t wrong , this has nothing to do with . The phone was in your hand the whole ti, you know everything I said and did, how could I tip her off? But I do know why she beca suspicious."
"Why?"
Qi Houzhao pointed to his own nose and said, "Look at , just see what kind of person I am. I sit in a Rolls-Royce, and every ti I go out, I have a driver and security accompanying . If I were picking up a guest, the driver and security would be the first to get out and open the car door. Just now, when she arrived at the car, no one got out. Anyone slightly cautious would notice sothing’s wrong. Oh, forgot to remind you, she is extrely cautious; I’ve never seen a woman so careful, she hides herself very well."
Hearing this, Ling Chen asked, "Since you know what kind of woman she is, why are you still chasing her?"
"Isn’t there an old saying in Huaxia, ’Fair lady, gentleman pursuit’? For a woman of her caliber, which man wouldn’t be tempted? Besides, a man like naturally wants to find an impressive woman. Ling, I’ve already brought you here, but you failed to catch her yourself. Shouldn’t you let go now?"
"You can leave." Ling Chen waved his hand helplessly.
Given Qi Houzhao’s status, Ling Chen couldn’t possibly kill him.
With Ling Chen’s consent, Qi Houzhao didn’t say another word, deciding not to even keep the Rolls-Royce Phantom and directly pushed open the car door to leave.
Watching Qi Houzhao leave, Ling Chen sat in the driver’s seat, took out his phone, and dialed Ji Beizhao’s number. Just when the woman escaped, Ling Chen morized the taxi’s license plate number. All taxis fall under a taxi company, and they’re equipped with GPS systems. Just a call to the company, and he could quickly find the taxi’s location.
In less than ten minutes, Ji Beizhao called back.
Upon learning the location of the taxi, Ling Chen imdiately started the car, opened the car’s navigation system, and headed straight for the destination.
Soon, Ling Chen arrived at the taxi’s location, and Ji Beizhao arrived by cab as well.
Ling Chen swiftly pulled open the car door, dragged the driver out from the driver’s seat, pressed him against the car door, and asked, "Where did that woman get off the car?"
"Up ahead." The driver quickly pointed to a nearby intersection and said, "The lady got off my taxi and then got into another one. I don’t know where she went next."
Hearing this, Ling Chen let go of the driver’s collar and sighed helplessly.
She is really cautious.
Ling Chen thought to himself. From the woman’s actions, it was clear she had certain counter-tracking skills. The more Ling Chen learned about this woman, the more curious he beca about who she really was.
