Chapter 410: Su Tao’S Suspicions
A modified off-road vehicle, bulletproof and mine-resistant, with two special forces soldiers as bodyguards, Su Tao turned to look behind her. It seemed that Si Chen had considerately prepared handguns for both her and Chi Xiaocheng for self-defense.
Anyone who knew would know they were here to protect the two of them.
Anyone who didn’t would think Si Chen was trying to kidnap them.
Si Chen, driving in front, said nonchalantly, "Actually, even if Chi Xiaocheng hadn't called me, I had a faint feeling."
Su Tao asked, "A feeling?"
"Yeah." Si Chen glanced at Chi Xiaocheng in the rearview mirror before quickly averting his gaze. "It's hard to explain to you in a short time. You can understand it as Chu Lingfeng has returned to Jiuzhou City, and he brought helpers with him."
"The reason I had you stay at the place I arranged is because I'm worried they'll go for broke."
"This modified vehicle is the same idea."
"And the two bodyguards behind you, they were both trained by the Si family. They are capable and highly trustworthy. Even though they are ordinary people, with the help of modern weapons, they don't need to fear ancient martial artists."
The two special forces bodyguards nodded seriously in agreement.
Upon hearing this, Su Tao didn't say anything more, but gripped Chi Xiaocheng's hand even tighter.
Even though her feelings towards Si Chen weren't very good, at this moment, Su Tao could only choose to trust him.
Suddenly, Si Chen in front shouted, "Hold on tight!"
"What?"
Before Su Tao could react, the car suddenly shook violently. The side of the off-road vehicle was hit hard by another car, and Su Tao and Chi Xiaocheng almost fell directly towards the left and right windows.
After steadying themselves and looking out the window, they realized that several sedans were constantly closing in.
The drivers of these sedans were all wearing suits and sunglasses.
Seeing this, Chi Xiaocheng's breath hitched.
The world's will to eliminate her had finally arrived, and she couldn't avoid it!
But Si Chen smiled coldly, "Before leaving, I felt a premonition, and with the phone call you gave me, I knew this trip wouldn't be peaceful!"
He slammed hard on a button.
Rows of barbs appeared on both sides of the off-road vehicle!
If those sedans dared to ram them, they would probably be in trouble before they even made contact.
Honking all the way, Si Chen almost floored the accelerator and charged straight ahead.
In an ordinary car, this would definitely be extremely dangerous.
But with Si Chen's maneuvering, those sedans fearfully veered away, only following from a distance, unable to get close.
It's worth mentioning that they didn't use any firearms either.
Chi Xiaocheng thought they would use guns like they did at the bridge last time.
[It's Su Tao's weight issue. Her and Si Chen's weights are both low, so it's difficult for the world's will to directly influence things.]
Chi Xiaocheng asked, "So that's how it is?"
[Hmph, now that I've grown up, I can resist the influence of the world's will to some extent, okay?]
[Okay, Host, you don't need to ask any more questions. Just hurry up and praise me.]
"Yes, yes, yes, you're even better than Xiao Hei."
Chi Xiaocheng praised helplessly, while also breathing a sigh of relief.
Looking at the two serious-faced special forces bodyguards in the back, her sense of security gradually returned.
Chi Xiaocheng turned to Su Tao and asked with concern, "Taotao, how are you feeling? Are you okay?"
"I'm definitely fine. Xiaocheng, why don't you hold me tighter? In case the car bounces around later, I can protect you."
Su Tao put one arm around Chi Xiaocheng, while tightly gripping a handle near the window with her other hand.
Si Chen, who was in the front, glanced at this scene, hesitated for a moment, and then slowly said, "Actually, it's enough if you two just fasten your seatbelts."
Su Tao was speechless.
Could it be that I only wanted to hug Xiaocheng because I saw the off-road vehicle drive away from the dangerous area where those sedans were?
Is my embrace, Su Tao's embrace, not as good as a cold seatbelt!
Si Chen, you deserve to die!
Such an obvious opportunity to increase Xiaocheng's affection for me, and you just let it slip by.
Su Tao wasn't really complaining about Si Chen. After all, he was currently helping the two of them escape from danger, and she was just slightly complaining in her heart.
She carefully fastened Chi Xiaocheng's seatbelt.
At the same time, she displayed a calm demeanor.
Anyway, she was already with Xiaocheng now, so they could be intimate later.
The rest of the way was uneventful. Only after the off-road vehicle arrived at the underground parking lot of Si Chen's villa did Chi Xiaocheng finally breathe a sigh of relief.
"It seems that the world's will isn't focusing on me. Now that an hour has passed since the confession and being together, it should be considered safe, right, System?"
[Theoretically, yes, but you can't completely relax. What's different this time from before is that Si Chen and Dongfang Yang have joined our camp, and Su Tao's role weight is also very low.]
"Xiao Hei, if anything unexpected happens, I'm counting on you."
In her ear, Xiao Hei's clear and cold voice, full of security, rang out, "Don't worry. Now that the world's will has personally intervened, then I don't need to pretend anymore. Since we're being targeted anyway, the next step is a direct confrontation."
There are many people I can trust around me, and everything is developing in a good direction.
Yes, there's no need to be so worried and flustered.
Next, I just need to make sure that Su Tao's mind and thoughts are not affected.
Chi Xiaocheng got out of the car and asked Si Chen, "You've arranged the place we'll be staying at next, right, Si Chen?"
"No problem. Just stay at my place tonight. It's late and not good to go out. I'll take you to a new place tomorrow, and strengthen the security there by the way."
"In addition…"
Si Chen glanced at Su Tao, hesitating to speak.
Su Tao asked, puzzled, "What's wrong?"
"It's nothing, let's go inside first. I'll arrange your rooms."
Si Chen's villa wasn't very big. He was a rather introverted person, and he only lived in a three-story detached house.
It was about 200 square meters in size, and the internal facilities were fairly complete.
"You two can stay on the second floor. I'll stay on the first floor. One room should be enough, right? A brand new double bed. Also, if there's anything, you can just call me."
As he spoke, he deliberately slowed his pace, and whispered next to Chi Xiaocheng, "Also, there's something I want to talk to you about. Can you spare some time tonight?"
Chi Xiaocheng nodded, and replied in a low voice.
There were some things that it really wasn't good for Taotao to know.
Moreover, just now, Si Chen looked at her with a pensive expression. Could it be that he had also noticed something was wrong?
Chi Xiaocheng wasn't very sure, but she just gave Si Chen a hint, telling him to wait for her.
The temporary room was a bit simple, with a double bed, a desk next to it, a projector for watching movies, and some small decorative items. There was nothing else.
It was very monotonous, and even the clothes that Chi Xiaocheng and Su Tao could change into were bought on the spot by someone.
Due to the circumstances, they naturally couldn't bring their luggage.
During the hour that followed, Chi Xiaocheng and Su Tao were simply chatting.
After the clothes arrived, Su Tao took the initiative to say, "Well, Xiaocheng, if there's nothing else, I'll go take a shower first. There's nothing to do tonight anyway, so I'll take a shower early, then we can watch a movie together, and then go to bed early."
"Okay~"
Chi Xiaocheng responded, but her eyes lit up at that moment.
She had been playing outside today, and had sweated a bit.
Taotao definitely had to wash her hair, and with the time it would take to shower, it would definitely take at least half an hour.
It was the perfect opportunity to go talk to Si Chen!
What she didn't know was that Su Tao was looking at Chi Xiaocheng, who seemed to be about to take action, with a meaningful expression.
