There was a wide road in front of Celestial Foothill Gardens.
The residential area was remote, and not many cars passed by there.
Currently, a black BMW was parked by the side of the road.
Two people were sitting in the car. One was the driver. He was a man in his fifties, wearing a black suit and sunglasses.
A young man in his mid-twenties sat In the back seat. He was handsome and wore an expensive suit. On his wrist was a gold watch.
He crossed his legs and sat there quietly, as if he was waiting for something.
From time to time, he raised his hand and looked at his watch before looking at the road ahead.
It was almost seven o’clock in the evening, and the sky was already dark. The road was pitch-black.
Occasionally, a set of headlights would illuminate the road as it sped past the BMW.
He became impatient after waiting for a long time. He reviewed the document he received again.
“Tang Hao…”
His expression darkened when his gaze fell on the photo, and a cold glint flashed across his eyes.
That was the person who had exposed Zeng Yan’s intimate photos and made him feel like a cuckold.
He, Liu Yulong, had never suffered such humiliation before!
He would not be satisfied if he did not carry out his revenge!
If Tang Hao had gone after his woman, then he would return the favor and go after Tang Hao’s woman.
Originally, he wanted to carry out his revenge on Liu Bingyao, but after some investigations, he found out that Tang Hao lived together with a woman in Westridge. It was obvious that she was the real deal.
That would make her a better target.
He flipped through the document and took out a photo.
In the photo was a beautiful woman. Her face could launch a thousand ships, and she had an alluring and sexy body.
He stared at her for a while, trying hard to resist the primal urges in his lower abdomen.
Even he was tempted by that woman.
“This kid is lucky!” He muttered disdainfully.
Hearing that, the driver furrowed his brows and turned around. “Young master, isn’t this… inappropriate?”
“What nonsense! I’m just here to play with his woman! I won’t kill this kid, so nothing bad will happen. Besides, it’s no big deal even if I kill him, right?”
Liu Yulong sneered.
According to the document, Tang Hao was born in a mountain village. He had been a typical poor kid before he was eighteen. He suddenly made a name for himself and rose to fame. In less than two years, he established a huge group of companies.
That turning point must be related to Mao Mountain.
In other words, Tang Hao was not from Mao Mountain. He was perhaps an agent of Mao Mountain, specifically chosen to make money for the organization.
If that was the case, he was a mere outsider and no one important to Mao Mountain. Killing him was not a big deal. Moreover, Liu Yulong was only there to entertain himself with that woman.
The driver opened his mouth but did not say anything.
He knew his young master’s character the best. His young master would seek revenge for the smallest grievance and would not give up until he achieved his goal.
Time passed by slowly.
Liu Yulong looked at his watch from time to time. He was getting impatient.
At almost eight o’clock, a red Ferrari sports car finally drove over from the other side of the road. It was very fast and neared them in an instant.
He looked carefully and saw that the driver was a seductive beauty.
When she passed by, she even turned her head and looked over curiously.
Obviously, it was unusual for a car to be parked on that remote road.
When the car drove past the BMW, Liu Yulong immediately sat up. He perked up and shouted to the driver, “Go! Follow that car!”
“Yes, Young Master!”
The driver responded, started the car, and followed it.
In the car in front, Qin Xiangyi glanced at the rearview mirror and furrowed her brows when she saw two headlights light up not far behind.
‘Was that the car earlier?’
She immediately became alert.
As she drove along the road, the car continued to tail her from afar.
The unease in Qin Xiangyi’s heart grew stronger.
The road never had much traffic. Under such circumstances, it was hard for her not to suspect something.
Subconsciously, she grabbed her phone and called Tang Hao.
“Lil Tang, I think… I’m being followed!”
“What?” On the other end of the phone, Tang Hao jumped up, and his expression changed drastically. “Where are you now?”
“I’m almost reaching home. I’m not too sure if I’m really being followed. The car was originally parked by the roadside. As soon as I passed it, it started moving, and it’s still behind me,” Qin Xiangyi said.
“Hurry up and go home!” Tang Hao shouted.
He would rather be safe than sorry.
“Understood!”
“Don’t hang up. I’m on my way. I’ll be there in about half an hour.”
“OK!” Qin Xiangyi replied. She felt much more relieved.
She put her phone aside, stepped on the gas pedal, and sped toward Celestial Foothill Gardens.
In Provincial City, Tang Hao put his phone away. His expression was extremely gloomy.
From Qin Xiangyi’s description, it was very likely that the car was deliberately following her, but who could it be?
As he pondered that question, he ran downstairs and got into his car.
As soon as the engine started, the A8 dashed out of the basement parking lot like a wild horse. Once it exited the residential area, he activated the power of the jade talismans, and the car sped away.
Back in Westridge, the Ferrari drove past the entrance of Celestial Foothill Gardens. Qin Xiangyi turned around and saw that the car was not behind her.
Qin Xiangyi let out a sigh of relief. Then, she continued driving and arrived at the mansion.
She entered the house after parking the car. After closing the door, she lifted the curtains of all the windows and looked outside to observe any movement.
After looking around and seeing that there was no movement, she let out a sigh of relief.
‘It was just a false alarm!’ She thought to herself. She picked up her phone and prepared to tell Tang Hao that everything was fine.
However, she noticed something from the corner of her eye. Through the gap of the curtains, she saw two figures standing in the shadows outside the mansion.
It was an extremely unnerving scene. She let out a low cry and stepped away.
Then, she picked up her phone and said in a panic, “Someone’s here, Lil Tang. They’re standing outside the mansion. What should I do?”
“Stay there and don’t move. It’ll be fine!” Tang Hao comforted her.
Qin Xiangyi had the blood jade bead, a set of defensive Artifacts consisting of a pair of bracelets and a necklace. Mundane people would not be able to hurt her.
“Come back quickly. I’m scared!”
Qin Xiangyi’s face turned slightly pale.
Although she knew that she was protected by many Artifacts, she was, after all, a woman. It was inevitable that she would panic in such a situation.
Putting down her phone, she gathered her courage and moved closer to the window. She gently lifted the curtains and looked out.
The two figures were still standing there. They seemed to have noticed her gaze, and both of them looked in her direction.
She was shocked and quickly retreated.
“Lil Tang, hurry up and come back!”
She curled up in the corner of the room, clutched her phone, and muttered.
