50: Attacked again

Zhang Wei watched from a distance as Zhu Xinyao followed Qin Shou out of the old house, then the two got into the hummer vehicle Qin Shou was driving. At this moment, he felt utterly desolate, his mind completely blank.

“Is Yaoyao going to a hotel with him? Have they… have they already progressed to this stage?”

“Yaoyao, what about me is inferior to this bastard Qin Shou? Don’t you know this guy is two-timing and has an unusual relationship with Mayor Ren?”

“Damn it, I must expose this bastard’s true colors.”

Zhang Wei had completely lost his reason at this moment. Burning with anger, he only wanted to expose Qin Shou’s “true colors” and make Zhu Xinyao see Qin Shou for who he really was. He slammed on the accelerator and followed closely behind.

However, to Zhang Wei’s even greater surprise, Qin Shou’s hummer vehicle didn’t drive far before it stopped steadily in front of the Happy Housing Source real estate agency.

“Happy Housing Source?”

“Isn’t this a real estate agency?”

“Is Qin Shou planning to buy a house for Yaoyao?”

“Damn it, when did this bastard get so rich? Giving away a house directly?”

“Could the detached old house they just looked at be what he plans to give Yaoyao?”

“He… he’s actually going to give Yaoyao a house? And it’s a detached old house with such a large courtyard! This… how much money would that cost? Just the renovation and decoration alone would be a lot, right?”

For a moment, Zhang Wei felt utterly desolate, his mind numb. He suddenly felt that the gap between himself and Qin Shou was growing wider and wider.

He was a low-end Second-generation rich, and usually, when he wanted money from his family, he had to endure all sorts of condescending looks.

However, after the initial anger and despair, Zhang Wei gradually calmed down. He began to rationally analyze the situation before him.

To be able to casually drive Mayor Ren Jing’s vehicle and have money to buy such a large property, it was clear that Qin Shou’s current strength was extraordinary. At the very least, he must have used some method to get a ride with Mayor Ren Jing.

Of course, what Zhang Wei thought of as ‘getting a ride’ was that there was a power-money transaction between Qin Shou and Ren Jing.

He didn’t know that Qin Shou wasn’t just getting a ride with Ren Jing; Qin Shou was directly Ren Jing’s driver and part-time vehicle maintenance. Now, all the engine oil for Ren Jing’s vehicle was provided by Qin Shou.

His original purpose in coming to find Qin Shou was to befriend him, hoping to use him to connect with Mayor Ren and thus get a share in the current technology park surrounding business district development project. Now it seemed that the stronger Qin Shou’s strength, the more it indicated his value for friendship. If he could build a good relationship with him, it would definitely be all benefit and no harm for him.

Anyway, it seemed there wasn’t much chance between himself and Zhu Xinyao. Since that was the case, it would be better to be a good sport, go with the flow, and use this opportunity to build a good relationship with Qin Shou. If he could truly secure a piece of land in this development project through Qin Shou’s connections, then his status in the Zhang family would definitely rise, and by then, would he still worry about not finding a better woman?

Having figured this out, Zhang Wei’s mood gradually calmed down, and he decided that no matter what, he had to find an opportunity to get close to Qin Shou today.

Inside the store, Qin Shou had already completed all the signed contracts. As the saying goes, a bird in the hand is worth two in the bush. Now that the transfer procedures were all done, he was just waiting for the new property deed to be issued by the housing authority. This way, he would no longer have to worry about the landlord suddenly backing out.

Qin Shou had already begun to fantasize about the government allocating him a floor. Bored every day, to pass the time, he could visit different tenants' homes to collect rent every day of the 30 days in a month, living the leisurely life of a landlord, which was simply delightful.

“Thank you so much for today.”

Looking at the contract in his hand, Qin Shou was in a great mood. He carefully put away the relevant documents and got up, intending to leave.

“I’ve helped you so much, and you’re just going to leave without a word? At least you should treat me to a meal to show your gratitude, right?”

Seeing Qin Shou about to leave, Zhu Xinyao suddenly spoke, her watery eyes fixed on Qin Shou, her tone even carrying a hint of coquetry, utterly enchanting.

Zhu Xinyao didn’t know what was wrong with her; she just hoped something would happen between her and Qin Shou.

“Uh, alright!”

Looking at Zhu Xinyao’s beautiful and moving eyes, Qin Shou was slightly taken aback. He didn’t expect Zhu Xinyao to suddenly ask him to treat her to a meal.

If Zhu Xinyao had offered to treat Qin Shou to a meal, Qin Shou might have refused without hesitation, but now that Zhu Xinyao was asking him to treat her, Qin Shou felt a bit awkward and couldn’t bring himself to refuse.

It had to be said that Zhu Xinyao was indeed very clever; she knew how to play on a man’s feelings.

Moreover, Zhu Xinyao had indeed helped him a lot today. Although these were all part of her job as a real estate agent, she had, after all, saved him 200,000 yuan. Qin Shou thought about it and felt that he really should treat Zhu Xinyao to a meal to show his gratitude, especially since they were also university classmates and old acquaintances.

“Alright, it’s almost dinnertime now, so let’s find a restaurant nearby and just grab a bite.”

Qin Shou nodded, agreeing to Zhu Xinyao’s suggestion.

“I know a restaurant nearby. The environment there is quiet, the food tastes quite good, and the prices aren’t expensive. Why don’t we go there? I know a shortcut; it’s only about a ten-minute drive, very convenient.”

Zhu Xinyao didn’t expect Qin Shou to agree so readily. She couldn’t help but feel a little proud, thinking, “You were so distant before, but it seems This Young Miss still has an attraction for you.”

“Okay, then I’ll follow your arrangements.”

Qin Shou didn’t think much of it. He put away the contract and walked out of the Happy Housing Source store with Zhu Xinyao, getting into the hummer vehicle parked by the road.

The shortcut Zhu Xinyao mentioned required passing through an undeveloped, rugged section of road where the road conditions were poor and hardly any vehicles usually passed, making it seem somewhat desolate. However, Qin Shou was driving a hummer vehicle, which had strong horsepower and a high chassis, making it very capable off-road, so driving on such a road section was no problem at all.

Moreover, there were few vehicles on this road, which made driving even more comfortable and relaxed for Qin Shou, whose driving skills were average.

However, just a few minutes after Qin Shou’s vehicle set off, a black land rover vehicle suddenly overtook him forcefully from the opposite lane, then this land rover vehicle suddenly braked sharply, stopping in front of Qin Shou. Qin Shou didn’t react in time, couldn’t brake, and directly rear-ended it.

“Damn it, can you even drive?! Are you trying to die?!”

Qin Shou was furious at this sudden rear-end collision. He cursed angrily and was about to get out of the vehicle to confront the other driver when his body suddenly lurched forward again. He heard a dull thud from behind, “bang,” and his hummer vehicle was rear-ended again from behind!

Qin Shou immediately became alert, instinctively feeling that something was amiss.

On such an undeveloped road section, where almost no vehicles usually passed, how could two vehicles suddenly appear at the same time, and even have a chain collision? This was definitely not a coincidence; someone must have done it on purpose.

Sure enough, as soon Shou became suspicious, he saw four men in black suits get out of the land rover vehicle in front. Each of them had a stern face and an unfriendly expression. Through the rearview mirror, Qin Shou also saw four Man in Black, dressed similarly, get out of the vehicle behind.

The attire of these people, as well as the cold, lifeless aura they exuded, were almost identical to that of the Man in Black assassin who had suddenly appeared in his apartment building that night, attempting to assassinate him.

Qin Shou knew without thinking that this group of people must be from the Blood God Cult.

What made Qin Shou even more terrified was that he saw one of the Man in Black holding a black pistol!

“Damn it, this vehicle belongs to Ren Jing. These people are probably after Ren Jing. I’m just taking the fall for Ren Jing, taking this bullet for her!”

Qin Shou immediately thought of a possibility.

“Fasten your seatbelt and hold on tight!”

Zhu Xinyao’s face was still a bit pale, not understanding what had happened. Qin Shou suddenly slammed on the accelerator, directly pushing open the land rover vehicle in front.

“Duck your head.”
