Chapter 141: Everyone Wants Me Dead
She was too familiar with it!
Numb, cold-blooded.
This is the look in the eyes of someone about to turn into a zombie from the apocalypse virus.
However, initial zombies have no thoughts at all; they are like walking dead. Let alone driving, their attacks are also chaotic and without any pattern.
Was this driver also an experimental subject?
“Chenge, what’s wrong?” Ning Xia, likely noticing Xia Chenge’s odd behavior, also glanced back.
“Nothing.” Xia Chenge returned to normal and shook her head.
If those laboratories were indeed researching the zombie virus, the fewer people who knew, the better.
If someone with Ning Xia’s skills were captured and used as an experimental subject, it would be a great disaster for humanity, because Ning Xia’s strength is too formidable.
“That driver is a bit strange.” But even though she didn’t say it, Ning Xia still noticed something unusual.
“Sister Ning, do you think he’s like a killer?” Xia Chenge asked deliberately.
Ning Xia looked back again and shook her head: “Not like a killer. He gives me the feeling of someone who has lost their mind.”
“It seems someone really wants me dead enough to buy out my life.” Xia Chenge sighed. “I wonder who it is, wanting me dead so badly.”
“Isn’t your so-called uncle-in-law filled with hatred for you? It’s probably his doing,” Ning Xia said, then paused. She suddenly remembered something. “Oh right, Chenge, I’ve been meaning to tell you, your father’s death back then wasn’t that simple.”
“Was he murdered?” Xia Chenge tilted her head.
Ning Xia nodded: “Yes, your parents’ car was tampered with, and before that, they had consumed a large amount of drugs, causing them to be disoriented. An accident occurred, and the car plunged into the sea with them inside.”
“I accidentally discovered this while investigating that terrifying organization. Xu Jingyi made a deal with people from that organization back then. The organization was responsible for tampering with the car, and they also provided the source of the drugs.”
“Xu Jingyi also has a mistress named Luo Yushi. Luo Yushi is also a member of that terrifying organization. Back then, Sheng Xia Group was at its peak. Not only was Xu Jingyi envious, but that organization also wanted to turn Sheng Xia into their tool for money laundering. Do you know why Sheng Xia is still your Xia family’s after so many years?”
Xia Chenge had always known that the deaths of her original owner’s parents were not simple, but she hadn’t expected such a complicated matter to be involved.
“I don’t know.” She shook her head, but in her heart, she guessed it was likely the Ling family protecting it.
“It was the Ling family that has been supporting Sheng Xia from behind the scenes, which is why Sheng Xia wasn’t taken over by Xu Jingyi and turned into that organization’s money laundering tool,” Ning Xia stated directly.
“You talk too much,” Ling Hanmu said with dissatisfaction.
“Idiot, won’t Chenge find out these things later if you don’t say them? Since you want to pursue her, don’t be so secretive. How do you know Chenge doesn’t need you to protect her silently from behind? What if she has her own plan?” Ning Xia couldn’t help but retort.
“This Young Master can protect her too. It’s just that she’s always wanted to get revenge herself, which is why the Xu Jingyi family has been so arrogant for so long. If you left it to this Young Master to handle, I’d make them unable to live in Country A in minutes,” Ling Hanmu said proudly.
“Right, I’ll give you that evidence later,” Ning Xia said, not bothering with Ling Hanmu.
“Mhm, thank you, Sister Ning.” Xia Chenge sounded a bit excited.
“What are you thanking me for? It’s just a small favor. Look, our names both have ‘Xia’ in them. What a good fate.”
“If I change my name to Ling Xia Mu, then my name will have your surname,” Ling Hanmu said excitedly.
Xia Chenge felt both helpless and amused. “You say you’ll change it just like that, aren’t you afraid of being laughed at?”
“This Young Master decides, and whoever dares to laugh at this Young Master, this Young Master will smash his dog head,” Ling Hanmu said with an arrogant expression.
As they spoke, the car had already driven out of the downtown area.
Ling Hanmu suddenly changed lanes and drove in another direction.
That car did not fall behind and quickly caught up.
Compared to the downtown area, there were far fewer cars here.
That car no longer maintained its distance as it did in the city but directly rammed into them. Ling Hanmu reacted quickly and dodged.
However, that car seemed to have gone mad, desperately trying to crash into them.
With only a two-lane road, it was difficult for Ling Hanmu to dodge.
Ling Hanmu slammed on the brakes.
Xia Chenge and Ning Xia were also thrown forward violently.
But both reacted quickly and did not collide.
“Damn it, these people are really suicidal,” Ning Xia cursed. “It’s just that I can’t expose my identity and use force right now, it’s so frustrating!”
“I’m here too!” Xia Chenge curled her lips. “Watch me catch one alive.”
With that, Xia Chenge looked back and suddenly opened the door and got out.
The driver’s eyes were blood red, and as he was about to crash into Ling Hanmu’s car, he became extremely excited.
It was as if doing so brought him immense pleasure.
Xia Chenge suddenly rushed to the driver’s seat, ripped off the door, and yanked the driver out.
They rolled on the ground, and the driver punched Xia Chenge.
Xia Chenge caught it, her small palm pressing against the driver’s fist, preventing him from moving an inch.
However, she didn’t expect the driver to open his mouth and bite her!
Xia Chenge slapped him, knocking out all his teeth. She finally heard him let out a beast-like growl, and he entered a berserk state, his strength even greater than before.
Xia Chenge leaped up, dodged the driver’s attack, and sprinted towards the car that was about to crash. She forcefully pressed the rear of the car and then pushed down hard, causing all four tires to burst and stop it.
“Roar…” The driver charged at her recklessly.
Xia Chenge turned and delivered a spinning kick, neatly taking him down. She then followed up immediately, breaking his limbs, rendering him incapable of attacking, but keeping him alive.
Ling Hanmu and Ning Xia had already jumped out of the car and quickly ran over.
“Little Brother, how are you? Don’t jump out of the car whenever we disagree from now on, okay? My heart can’t take it.” Ling Hanmu didn’t even look at the driver on the ground, staring anxiously at Xia Chenge, afraid she was injured.
Xia Chenge was touched by such concern. She smiled and said, “I’m fine. Am I not standing here well? I wouldn’t do anything I wasn’t sure of.”
“Why do this person’s eyes look so strange?” Ning Xia asked in surprise from the side.
Xia Chenge looked over. The person’s mouth was full of blood, a shocking sight, but his eyes had become even redder and more terrifying.
“As you said, he’s probably truly gone mad.” Ning Xia walked over, intending to see if this person had really turned into a zombie.
Ling Hanmu suddenly grabbed her. “Don’t go over, it’s dangerous! Let me.”
Recalling Ling Hanmu’s berserk state, Xia Chenge felt a lingering fear. She instinctively pushed Ling Hanmu away, not wanting the terrifying temper suppressed within him to be triggered.
“Xiao Mu, you stay and watch, don’t come over!” Xia Chenge said in a commanding tone.
Ling Hanmu clenched his fists, and in the end, he obediently stood aside.
“Having someone protect you is a form of happiness, cherish it,” Ning Xia glanced at him.
Ling Hanmu wanted to retort, his lips moved, but ultimately he said nothing.
Xia Chenge grabbed the driver, probing his body, and a hint of surprise flashed in her eyes.
