Chapter 416: Chu Lingfeng'S Manic Decision

"It's the same SUV from before, followed by two sedans, seemingly acting as protection."

Inside a hotel, Chu Lingfeng listened to the information from his informant, excitedly clenching his right fist, then bringing it down heavily. "You've done well. Continue to stay here and monitor Si Chen's every move. I'll send you a bonus later!"

He excitedly picked up another phone, about to make a call, when a cold voice came from beside him. "I advise you not to act rashly. Last night, you had them intercept Su Tao's car, which deviated from the Maid Head's plan."

Chu Lingfeng turned to look at the man with a straight fringe and round glasses sitting in a chair. "Are you not clear about the current situation? If Su Tao and Chi Xiaocheng hide in Si Chen's villa, which is heavily guarded, how could we possibly have a chance to attack them!"

The bespectacled man gave a cold smile. "In the end, it's because of you scaring them last night that they chose this plan."

"Originally!" The bespectacled man stood up, his voice rising. "Originally, if you followed my method and slowly sent people to monitor them, infiltrating their social circles, we could have easily taken them down with drugs or any other method once they let down their guard."

"But you! You had to use such extreme measures! Don't you know their fighting ability? They could kill ten of you!"

"You really think that just because you know how to use a few needles, you--"

"Shut up!"

Before the bespectacled man could finish speaking, Chu Lingfeng threw a silver needle from afar.

With a "whoosh," the silver needle pierced straight into the bespectacled man's temple. The latter widened his eyes, filled with terror and shock.

He didn't know that Chu Lingfeng also knew this throwing needle technique.

He couldn't even understand why Chu Lingfeng would attack him when they were clearly on the same side.

He was handpicked by the Maid Head to help. How dare Chu Lingfeng attack him?

This was betraying the Maid Head, betraying the Young Lady!

How dare he!

The bespectacled man couldn't understand, but he no longer had the strength to think.

His body fell straight down, dying on the spot.

If he had seen the expression on Chu Lingfeng's face in the darkness, he would have seen that the man's hair was disheveled and his eyes were bloodshot.

Hatred seemed to have driven him mad.

Chu Lingfeng took out his phone and made a call, saying fiercely, "I don't care what methods you use, intercept Su Tao and Chi Xiaocheng on the road for me!"

His voice was accompanied by heavy breathing, incredibly manic.

As his command was issued, almost at the same time, the people in the car felt something was wrong.

There were many strange car horns honking around them.

Were they dispersing possible pedestrians in the early morning?

Or were they signaling each other?

Si Chen's phone, which he had kept on, immediately rang.

"Young Master! Please change direction and switch lanes immediately. There has been a sudden car accident on the Fifth Ring Road, and the entire straight road will be blocked until it's cleared!"

To ensure safety along the way, Si Chen had arranged manpower in advance on the main roads to confirm road conditions.

Now, things were still going in the wrong direction.

Before he could reply, one of the special forces bodyguards in the back car said, "Young Master, there are suddenly more sedans around us. I estimate they are still coming for us. Prepare for the worst."

"Tsk!"

Si Chen turned on the turn signal, ignored the traffic rules, slammed the steering wheel, and directly changed lanes to turn left at a red light.

"Su Tao, Chi Xiaocheng, do you know how to use a gun?"

"Huh?"

His words stunned both of them.

Chi Xiaocheng couldn't help but retort, "You expect two ordinary college students to use a handgun?"

She was even afraid of it going off in her hand.

Chi Xiaocheng pulled out a fruit knife from her pants. "Does knowing how to use this thing count?"

Su Tao glanced at Chi Xiaocheng and stroked her chin. "I'm pretty strong now. Um... can you give me a few hand grenades to play with?"

Su Tao still knew how to pull a pin or a fuse, then tap it on her head and throw it.

She just couldn't guarantee accuracy.

After all, wasn't that how it was done in anti-Japanese dramas? Pull the pin, hit your head, and throw!

This time, it was Si Chen's turn to be speechless.

A handgun was just in case of emergencies, but hand grenades were really too much. Although there weren't many people in the morning, this was still the city!

He curled his lips. "Forget it, just sit tight. They failed last night, and they're still planning to surround us today. I guess those people mostly intend to not abide by the rules of the game anymore."

In other words, they would use extreme weapons!

Just as Si Chen thought, as soon as he finished speaking, they saw a car on the right front rolling down its window, and then a man in a suit suddenly stuck his head out of the window.

The man was holding a submachine gun of unknown model!

Si Chen's pupils shrank, and he was about to shout "Duck your heads!"

Then, the man in the suit who had stuck half his body out of the window "thumped" against a utility pole.

"This..."

Si Chen was momentarily speechless, but he quickly reacted. "Duck your heads! They're likely to open fire!"

There was more than just this one car following him.

Sure enough, gunshots rang out from all directions.

The car windows were bulletproof.

But Si Chen could clearly feel that the other party was actually aiming for the car's tires!

Now, it had really turned into a firefight.

The two special forces bodyguards exchanged glances. "Ladies, don't look up. This bulletproof glass can only withstand some small-caliber guns. If it takes too many hits, it will still shatter."

Bullets hit the car windows, making a pinging sound.

And the two special forces bodyguards in the back car also lowered their bulletproof glass a little on both sides.

Then came the ear-piercing and exciting exchange of fire.

Listening to the sound that was like a downpour, Su Tao's heart beat very fast. She turned to look at Chi Xiaocheng and found that the girl's face was also tense.

She was clutching that small fruit knife tightly, as if that thing could give her some security.

Even though she was very nervous, Su Tao still smiled and reassured her, "Xiaocheng, don't worry, nothing will happen. Not only is this bulletproof glass, but the car will be driving away soon."

But at this moment, Si Chen's roar rang out again. "Keep your heads down as much as possible! Besides these guys, there are also snipers!"

Just now, he had noticed a reflection coming from a high-rise building.

The sun had just risen, shining directly on the top of that building.

Undoubtedly, it was the reflection of a sniper scope.

"Bang—!"

Without even a silencer, an extremely loud sound directly pierced through the bulletproof glass.

A round hole appeared in the glass surface, and patterns like spider webs spread from the round hole to the surrounding area, as if it would shatter at any moment!

Her hand was shaking.

The alert skill in her heart was warning her more intensely than ever before.

Chi Xiaocheng finally understood the chilling feeling Su Tao described after confessing last night.

The Will of the World was also targeting her at this moment!
