Chapter 201 Xiao Jingchen Disappears
Chapter 201 Xiao Jingchen Disappears
Xiao Jingchen glanced down at his clothes, which were soaked with blood. He snorted lightly, his tone relaxed.
"What's the big deal?"
Even though he said that, Zhou Qing still felt very upset.
After all, as Mr. Xiao's assistant, he should have carefully checked the car before each trip. Today's incidents were all due to his negligence, so how could he not feel guilty?
"Mr. Xiao, it's all my fault."
"What does this have to do with you? It's just that someone can't wait to make a move."
Xiao Jingchen stared at the sea of fire in the distance, his eyes burning with fury.
"Mr. Xiao, what do we do now?"
Zhou Qing tightly wrapped the wound with her coat, and stopped after making sure the bleeding had stopped.
"Since Xiao Yunsi wants us dead, then so be it."
Xiao Jingchen lowered his eyes, his voice gentle yet chilling.
He took out his phone and made a call, then took Zhou Qing's phone from him.
"You wait here."
Zhou Qing was taken aback, then realized Xiao Jingchen's intention and quickly stood up.
"Mr. Xiao, let me go over there. You're injured."
Xiao Jingchen paused, turned around, glanced at Zhou Qing who needed support to stand up, and let out a sneer.
"By the time you get there, you might burn yourself too."
Zhou Qing coughed a few times, feeling a little embarrassed, but ultimately didn't chase after them.
Xiao Jingchen makes a lot of sense. His reckless behavior will only cause trouble.
His life was saved by President Xiao himself, so we must cherish it.
The car was still burning. Xiao Jingchen didn't get too close. After feeling the intense heat, he stopped and threw both phones at the car.
Not long after, a car drove up, and Zhou Qing immediately tensed up, fearing that it was someone sent by Xiao Yunsi.
The car did indeed stop in front of them. Zhou Qing stood silently in front of Xiao Jingchen, but saw several men walk up to them obediently and bow slightly.
"Mr. Xiao, please get in the car."
"Ah."
Xiao Jingchen responded, a hint of a smile appearing in his eyes as he looked at Zhou Qing.
Zhou Qing also felt a little embarrassed, but fortunately it was nighttime and no one could see his expression clearly.
"Clean up the bloodstains on the road, and make it clean so no one notices anything amiss."
Once in the car, a professional doctor treated their wounds, and Xiao Jingchen's tense nerves finally relaxed a bit.
He gave his orders methodically, and left overnight after ensuring there were no mistakes.
The next morning, the news of the "car crash and fatalities" made it to the front page of the S City news.
Xiao Yunsi stared at the incoming message with a manic expression, then suddenly burst into laughter.
His laughter echoed throughout the entire villa, yet he showed no sign of stopping.
Finally... finally, the day he had been waiting for had come.
Why does Xiao Jingchen have the right to monopolize the Xiao family business? He is also his grandfather's grandson, and this company should belong to him!
The gentleness that had been on Xiao Yunsi's face was gone, replaced by a sinister look in his eyes.
He changed into a brand new set of clothes and drove to the Xiao family's residence.
At that time, no one knew who was in the car. It wasn't until their identities were confirmed in S City that the news reached the Xiao family.
Lin Ran had originally planned to go downstairs to the restaurant for breakfast, but her face turned pale after hearing her colleagues' comments.
She grabbed a passing colleague, her voice trembling, and almost lost control.
"what did you just say?"
The woman being dragged was initially angry, but when she turned her head and saw that it was Lin Ran, her expression changed, and a hint of pity flashed in her eyes.
"Please accept my condolences. It's said that something happened to President Xiao over there... Never mind, you should go see for yourself."
The woman stopped mid-sentence, seemingly reluctant to continue, patted Lin Ran on the shoulder, and left.
Lin Ran suddenly lost her strength, and her head spun and she felt dizzy.
With trembling hands, she took out her phone and dialed a number she had never made before.
Once, twice, three times.
No one answered.
She rushed back to her office and made a call using the office phone.
But the result was still the same.
Zhou Qing's phone also went unanswered.
Lin Ran slumped to the ground, her expression sorrowful.
But right there, her phone suddenly rang.
A hint of joy flashed across her face as she casually wiped away her tears.
She knew it; how could Xiao Jingchen possibly have gotten into an accident? That man was so capable; how could he possibly have died in a car accident there?
Lin Ran wanted to press the call button quickly, but her hands were shaking so badly that she couldn't press it no matter how many times she tried.
"Xiao Jingchen? Is that you?"
There was a long silence on the other end of the phone before an unfamiliar voice came through.
"I'm sorry, Miss Lin, Mr. Xiao is probably... I don't know when you'll have time to come and collect his belongings?"
thump.
Lin Ran suddenly threw her phone away.
She didn't believe it, she didn't believe it!
How could Xiao Jingchen have gotten into trouble? He was just sharing the moon with her last night, he was just here yesterday...
Lin Ran broke down in tears. She had been trying to suppress her sobs, but eventually she couldn't control herself and burst into loud wails.
But then the phone rang again.
She walked over and picked up the phone; it was a call from her grandfather.
Lin Ran dared not cry anymore. She wiped away her tears forcefully, her face showing determination.
"Grandpa, what's wrong?"
The old man was unaware of these things and spoke with great pleasure.
"Ranran, I'm about to board a plane to visit some old friends abroad for a few days. Please take good care of yourself."
"I know, Grandpa. You too. Have fun."
No matter how carefully Lin Ran tried to hide it, Old Master Xiao still noticed her sob and his voice immediately turned cold.
"Did that brat Xiao Jingchen bully you? Don't cry, I'll call him and teach him a lesson later."
"No, Grandpa!"
Hearing that Grandpa Xiao was about to make a phone call, Lin Ran felt a pang of sadness and quickly stopped him.
"It's because I just ate chili peppers, and they were really too spicy."
"I'll just have some water later. Jingchen didn't bully me."
Lin Ran tried her best to make her voice sound sweet, her nails digging tightly into her palms, afraid that she would lose control and start crying again.
Fortunately, the old man didn't suspect anything. After saying a few more hurried words, he hung up the phone.
At the airport, Grandpa Xiao frowned as he stared at his phone.
"Old Xiao, do you think this kid is hiding something from me? Should I call him and ask him?"
"Sir, please don't worry about it. Let the young couple handle this themselves."
The old man rolled his eyes, seemingly hesitant, but finally nodded.
