233: Chapter 233 Speed ​​of Life and Death

What Shen Yan didn't expect was that Gu Hui's driver pleaded with him.

"Mr. Shen, we know our request is a bit unreasonable for you, but we really have something very important right now and cannot afford any delays on the journey."

"How about this, you name a price, no matter how much it is, we will accept it, as long as you can safely take us to the airport."

Since the other party had said this much, how could Shen Yan possibly refuse?

Thus, the two of them smoothly got into his car.

Glancing at the navigation, Shen Yan found that it would still take over an hour to reach the airport from there.

To keep himself awake during the journey and to understand the situation a bit, Shen Yan asked the driver, "Are you rushing because you need to catch a flight?"

The driver did not rashly answer Shen Yan's question. He turned to glance at Gu Hui, who was pretending to doze with his eyes closed, before replying to Shen Yan, "Yes, that flight is the only one today. We must get there as soon as possible."

Shen Yan nodded and then asked them, "Then what happened to your car?"

The driver sighed and replied, "Someone tampered with our car. When we tried to start it again just now, the engine stalled."

Hearing this, Shen Yan instinctively felt that there must be something fishy going on.

Although he really wanted to press the driver about why their car was tampered with, he could guess even with his bare minimum thinking that even if he asked these two people, they wouldn't tell the truth.

Suppressing the curiosity in his heart, he concentrated on driving.

Because this time was the peak of rush hour, the road was constantly congested.

Twenty minutes had passed since they set off, but they had only covered 2 kilometers from their starting point.

"Mr. Shen, shall I drive instead?"

As soon as the words fell.

Shen Yan turned to look at the driver.

Right. They were professionals, unlike him, and were more familiar with the local road conditions.

Instead of being stuck here the whole time, it was better to let them drive themselves.

Thinking this, he agreed to the driver's request.

After switching places, the driver turned the steering wheel and headed for a different route.

Seeing the route deviation on the navigation, Shen Yan couldn't help but ask the driver, "Is this road really passable? The navigation..."

Before he could finish speaking, the driver smiled and replied to Shen Yan, "Don't worry, I've taken this route before. I guarantee we will reach the airport ahead of schedule."

Since the other party insisted, what else could Shen Yan say? He could only smile without speaking.

Since Shen Yan had woken up very early that day, he soon started feeling a bit drowsy.

Just as he was about to fall asleep in the passenger seat, he suddenly noticed the car starting to feel a little unstable.

At first, he thought it was due to the road conditions, but then he realized the car was accelerating faster and faster.

Opening his eyes, he asked the driver, "Why the sudden acceleration?"

The driver didn't answer his question, only continuing to accelerate with a stern expression.

Seeing that the speed was already over the limit, Shen Yan quickly urged, "You're speeding, slow down!"

As soon as his voice faded.

Gu Hui behind him said, "We have tails. We need to shake them off as soon as possible."

Tails? Someone was tracking them?

Shen Yan's heart tightened. He turned and asked Gu Hui, "What tails? Who are you people?"

Gu Hui, who had kept his eyes closed since getting in the car, finally opened them upon hearing this.

"You don't know who I am?"

Shen Yan looked utterly bewildered.

Should he know who Gu Hui was?

If it weren't for the tycoon system, he wouldn't even know that the person in front of him was the Chairman of the Group.

While thinking silently to himself, he shook his head at Gu Hui.

Seeing him shake his head, Gu Hui let out a few low chuckles.

"Mr. Shen, you don't need to pretend in front of me. I know you definitely know who I am."

The other party's confident demeanor inexplicably annoyed Shen Yan.

"I genuinely don't know who you are. If you don't start telling the truth immediately, please get out of my car right now."

Seeing him truly look displeased, Gu Hui was quite surprised.

"You really don't know who I am?"

Shen Yan kept his face dark and said nothing.

Gu Hui said, "Fine. Since you really don't know, then I'll tell you. I am the Chairman of the Gu Group."

Originally, Gu Hui expected Shen Yan to show surprise, astonishment, or even shock. However, he didn't expect the other party to remain silent, still looking at him with a dark expression.

Gu Hui: ???

Why wasn't the reaction different from what he expected?

Just as he was thinking this, Shen Yan took a deep breath and asked him again, "And then? You are the Chairman of the Gu Group. What does that have to do with you being followed right now?"

Gu Hui blinked and replied, "I can't tell you about this matter."

Shen Yan sneered.

"Since you can't tell me, then both of you get out of my car now."

The driver interjected at the right moment, "Mr. Shen, the steering wheel is in my hands right now, so that might not be possible according to your wishes."

Shen Yan: ...

Damn it!

How could he forget about that?!

Just as the atmosphere in the car became tense, the few cars behind them caught up.

"Beep beep beep!"

Car horns blared continuously from the sides and behind them.

Shen Yan looked out the window with some irritation.

Huh?

Isn't that the owner of the BMW from earlier?

After recognizing the person driving next to him, Shen Yan turned and asked Gu Hui, "Wasn't the owner of that BMW just trying to extort you by wasting time back there?"

Gu Hui nodded and closed his eyes again.

"They were trying to delay time so I couldn't catch my flight."

Hearing this, Shen Yan couldn't help but feel curious.

He wondered why the Chairman of the Gu Group absolutely had to catch that specific flight, and what exactly they were trying to do?

Just as he was feeling confused, a sudden feeling of being pushed back came from behind.

"Bang!"

It was the vehicle behind them hitting the rear of their car!

Since Shen Yan's car was also a top-of-the-line luxury vehicle, even after being rear-ended, his car did not stop.

Just as Shen Yan was about to turn around to look at the car that hit them from behind, the driver suddenly said from the side, "Hold onto the handrail!"

The words fell.

The next second, the car suddenly accelerated.

This feeling of being pushed back was even more intense than the one from being rear-ended earlier.

Shen Yan didn't have time to ask questions; he stared straight ahead, gripping the handrail tightly.

"Vroom vroom vroom!!!"

With the violent roar of the engine, Shen Yan started to feel dizzy.

Since childhood, he had never been someone who enjoyed driving fast.

This was the first time he had been in a car going this fast.

Honestly, he felt like he was riding in a race car.

Just as he felt so dizzy he thought he was about to throw up, another loud noise suddenly came from behind.

"Bang!"

The car behind them hit them again.
