Chap 30
: Mount Fuji is far away

Two hours ago, Chen Wan set out from the outer ring.

He is on a business trip to the Outer Ring Road today and needs navigation to get to Baoli Bay. Baoli Bay, as the golden terminal with the largest throughput in the next ten years, is not yet fully developed at the moment, especially from the Outer Ring Road. It is sparsely populated and has only some small-scale factories.

Originally, he was the only car on the road and was driving smoothly. When he passed Ring Road 375, several cars appeared in front of him chasing him.

To be precise, two large jeeps surrounded a Sharon Marty.

Sharon Mattie was attacked from both sides, swaying from side to side, and her trunk and headlights were damaged, looking quite tragic.

Chen Wan didn’t know the reason and didn’t want to meddle in other people’s business, so he stepped on the accelerator and overtook.

When they passed each other, Sharon Mattie flashed her distress signal at him, but Chen Wan ignored it. It was not until the headlights shone on him that he saw clearly that there was a lady sitting in the back seat.

I couldn’t see his face clearly, but his hands were pressed against the window in a pleading gesture.

This side is close to the sea and has not been developed. There are only the simplest guardrails on the bends, and there are frequent reports of people and vehicles being hijacked or falling into the sea.

Chen Wan raised her hand to check the time, pursed her lips, slowed down the car, and suddenly made a sudden comeback, catching the two jeeps off guard.

He drove a good car today, which was resistant to collisions.

But the two jeeps were instantly enraged, even crazier than the last Rolls-Royce, their engines roared angrily, and they were so angry that they even wanted to retaliate against Chen Wan for his meddling at all costs. The two cars squeezed his Volkswagen and hit the rearview mirror directly, breaking it.

Chen Wan felt a huge impact while sitting in the driver’s seat, and the phone with a flashing call alert fell from his pocket into the gap.

Yin Gong, Chen Wan cursed inwardly, his vision became blurred, his breathing became heavier, the car lights were shattered, and on the night road without street lights, he could only control the direction by intuition.

Volkswagen and Sharon Marty’s patience could not match Jeep, so Chen Wan decided to make a quick decision.

He opened the car window, and Sharon and Mattie in the front and back seats all lowered their windows in cooperation.

Chen Wan was stunned when he saw the lady’s face clearly.

Without time to think, he made a gesture to the driver in the front seat of Shalangmati. The other party immediately understood and stepped on the accelerator. When there was some distance between them, Chen Wan immediately turned the steering wheel to the limit and blocked the middle of the road.

If the Jeep insisted on catching up with Sharon Marty at all costs, Chen Wan’s Volkswagen would definitely be knocked over the railing and fall into the sea.

But he bet that Jeep wouldn’t go down with it.

The Jeep indeed emergency braked at the last second before the collision, but the Volkswagen was still hit by inertia. The airbag on the driver’s seat popped out and the seat belt was pulled to the limit, so Chen Wan was not knocked away, but his head still hit hard, making a thrilling sound.

Chen Wan’s eyes were full of stars. Without waiting to recover, he started the car and sped away based on his instinct.

Sharon Marty had already taken the opportunity to break out of the encirclement and ran very far. The two jeeps knew that there was no possibility of catching up with her, but they clearly memorized the license plate of this madman who showed up out of nowhere.

The Volkswagen escorted Sharon Mattie until she entered the brightly lit city area before stopping.

Chen Wan did not want to make acquaintance with the other party, and just as he was about to turn on the turn signal, the lady in the back seat quickly walked down, came to his car window, and knocked politely.

Chen Wan had no choice but to roll down the car window.

The lady was very young and beautiful. After such a thrilling chaos, she was still decent and generous. She smiled with gratitude and said, “Sir, thank you for your willingness to lend a hand just now. What is your name?”

Chen Wan was still dizzy, so he calmed his breath and smiled: “My last name is Chen.”

“Mr. Chen,” the lady took out a business card and handed it to him with both hands, “My name is Xu Zhiying, can we be friends?”

She wanted to give the other party some compensation, but judging from his car and temperament, he was not short of money, and it was very rude to ask for material compensation directly, so she said this.

Chen Wan couldn’t refuse the lady, so she could only take the business card and said, “OK.”

Then he apologized and said, “I don’t have a business card with me, sorry.”

“It doesn’t matter.”

Chen Wan looked down at the business card that was emitting a faint fragrance.

Miss Xu, who is rumored to be returning to China with Zhao Shengge and has an engagement intention.Xu Zhiying originally planned to go alone today to see a piece of land with great potential but which no one had noticed yet. In order not to attract attention, she only brought a driver with her. After the inspection, she went directly to Baoli Bay to attend the dinner.

The two jeeps that surrounded and attacked her must be the Zhao family’s enemies. They believed the rumor of the marriage between the Xu and Zhao families. Since they couldn’t get the upper hand from Zhao Shengge, they started with her.

Therefore, they chose the day of the press conference and the dinner to cause trouble, and it would be best if it could cause a big uproar in the city and be reported online, thus ruining Minglong’s good omen.

Moreover, the Xu family also has a stake in the Baoli Bay project. Even if they don’t all suffer together, they can at least create some gaps between the two parties, thus killing two birds with one stone.

Xu Zhiying looked at Chen Wan’s pale face and asked worriedly, “Are you injured? Let me take you to the hospital. Your forehead and arms are bleeding. You need a careful check.”

The collision was so violent that she felt like vomiting even though she was sitting in the back seat, not to mention the driver.

Chen Wan smiled and declined politely: “No, Miss Xu, I don’t feel uncomfortable anywhere, you don’t have to worry about it.”

He saw that the other person was also dressed to attend the dinner at Baoli Bay, so he suggested considerately: “Go and do your business first.”

Xu Zhiying still said worriedly: “What about you? Has anything happened to you?”

She noticed that Chen Wan was also dressed very formally, obviously dressed up carefully, but because of the chaotic fight just now, his tie was messy, his collar and cuffs were wrinkled, and he looked a little embarrassed.

But that face is still extremely beautiful.

Xu Zhiying suddenly felt deeply sorry. Perhaps someone was going to a long-awaited appointment, but she had messed it up.

Chen Wan didn’t want to cause trouble to others, so she said, “It’s okay, my friend and I can just change the time.”

“How about I take you to the hospital?”

“Really, no need. I’m fine, Miss Xu.”

Seeing his firm refusal, Xu Zhiying could no longer insist and just repeatedly said, “Okay, Mr. Chen, if you feel uncomfortable in the future, please be sure to contact me. I am not being polite, otherwise I will be uneasy.”

Chen Wan was startled. This Miss Xu looked gentle and polite, and she spoke with great aura. He smiled and said, “Miss Xu, I’m fine. Don’t worry.”

After Xu Zhiying left, Chen Wan stopped the car on the side of the road and rolled up his sleeves to check his arm.

Sure enough, there was a wound and some blood had flowed out, which had already dried on the white shirt.

He had just felt a dull pain, and now there was a large swelling. It was probably because he turned too sharply and too far when he was blocking the jeep, and hit the car window.

There were some scratches on his forehead, which were not noticeable unless you looked closely, but his mind felt dizzy and foggy.

Covered in dust and looking disheveled, Chen Wan couldn’t go to the party. He sighed tiredly and helplessly.

Looking at Xu Zhiying’s back as she left for the banquet, Chen Wan felt a little envious and regretful.

Mount Fuji is far away and he can’t go there.

The Volkswagen was parked on the side of the road like a giant beast in the night, its engine running hot and it was gasping for breath. The huge screen above the red light had just finished broadcasting the observatory report and was broadcasting financial news.

After Director Minglong’s speech, Zhao Shengge’s face flashed by, and even the official media did not dare to take more pictures of him.

Chen Wan couldn’t see his expression clearly, but saw the ring on his hand. In fact, the camera flashed too fast and Chen Wan didn’t pay attention to which finger he wore it on, but he knew that Zhao Shengge never wore a ring before.

The oncoming vehicle turned on its high beam and shone straight at him, causing Chen Wan’s eyes to suddenly feel very painful.

Perhaps it was because he personally sent the rumored rival to the person he liked, or perhaps it was because his brain was really damaged by the jeep and his heart was broken, Chen Wan was unusually not as rational as usual.

However, the time he was irrational was very short and he strictly controlled it within the range allowed by himself.

In fact, it is gratifying. Miss Xu is a very outstanding person. She is the kind of woman that even he, a coveterian lurking in the dark, would appreciate. She is a good match for Zhao Shengge.

Chen Wan was glad that she was the one who turned the steering wheel.

Feeling pain in his forehead, Chen Wan just lay there motionless with his eyes closed to rest. During the twenty minutes in the darkness of the carriage, Chen Wan pieced together the fragments of his body bit by bit and gathered enough strength to drive to the hospital.

Polly Bay.

When Sharon Mattie arrived at the front door, the media outside were already flashing their cameras.

Even though Xu Zhiying had just experienced that turmoil, she remained elegant and calm. After getting out of the car, she ignored the reporters who kept calling her “Ms. Xu” and walked into the banquet hall with grace and grace.

She was thinking about business, so after exchanging a few pleasantries with her acquaintances, she found Zhao Shengge’s secretary and said she wanted to see him.

Zhao Shengge said he was busy.

“…” Xu Zhiying laughed in anger, feeling that the other party’s spirit of contract really needed to be improved, so he could only tell the secretary what happened just now, “I suspect it was Hong Qi’s people, tell him to find someone to investigate as soon as possible.”

Hong Qi is the leader of the White Crane Hall and also the one who escaped the last Hurricane Thunder Operation.

This time Zhao Shengge quickly let her into the VIP lounge. Xu Zhiying greeted him, “Mr. Zhao.”
