Chapter 85: The One Who Wants Your Life
often treacherous officials who held high positions.Chen Ping'an was confident he could handle someone like Zhang Xiaobo, a sly and fickle opportunist.Anyway, he doesn't care about the salary. He just..."Then let's go meet him tonight!" Li Qiushui said to the old man with interest.
"Then I'll go check on his whereabouts tonight!" The old man said, and after seeing Li Qiushui nod, he exited the tea room.
The tea room fell silent, leaving only the sounds of smoking and drinking tea.
As the sun sets, neon lights flicker to life on the streets. It's already 10 o'clock at night.
Chen Ping'an and the security department personnel drank until 10:00 PM after work, and many people passed out before leaving.
The only man who remained awake throughout the entire event was Chen Ping'an.
"For those without family to pick them up, I've already arranged for the hotel staff to drive them back to the company dormitory. Where do you live I can send you home!"
Chen Ping'an and Gao Weiwei stood at the entrance of the Hyatt Hotel. Gao Weiwei, who hadn't had a drop of alcohol, spoke to Chen Ping'an, who was slightly intoxicated.
"No, I'll go back myself!"
Chen Pingan finished speaking and ignored Gao Weiwei any longer. He took the Lanting Xu that Gao Weiwei had previously given him and left.
He has just made an appointment with Mr. Shen, the manager of Bank of China Trust, to pick up the genuine Lanting Preface.
If he's going to give a gift, he'll give an original, not a fake to fool people.
Gao Weiwei knew Chen Ping'an's temperament. She hesitated for a moment, but ultimately didn't follow him. She dialed that number again.
"Protect Chen Ping'an!"
Just like before, after answering her phone, she only said a word and hung up before driving away from the Hyatt Hotel.
Two hours later, Chen Pingan took the original work of the Orchid Pavilion Preface and Shen Jingli out of Ruizhi Bank.
Mr. Chen, where do you live now, I'll send you back!
Just like Gao Weiwei before him, Shen Jingli proactively offered to send Chen Ping'an back.
Just as Chen Ping'an was about to nod, his ears twitched twice, and he frowned, glancing back over his shoulder.
"No need, you can go back first. I still have some private matters to attend to."
Ultimately, Chen Ping refused Shen Jingli's offer to drive him home.
"Alright, be careful out there this late. Call me if anything happens."
Chen Ping'an said that he still had things to deal with, so Shen Jingli didn't feel comfortable saying anything more and drove away.
After Chen Ping'an and Shen Jingli left, they walked along the road towards Li Ruonan's rented apartment.
When he walked to a section where the streetlights were dimmer, a slender figure in striking attire, wearing a fox mask, appeared before him, blocking his path. The person also held a long sword in their hand.
Even in the dim light of the road, the long sword emitted a dazzling cold light. From the brightness of the sword alone, one could tell how sharp it was.
"Who are you, and what do you want" Chen Pingan stopped and asked in a low voice.
"You're going to die!"
A voice, smooth and seductive to the bone, reached Chen Ping'an's ears. The moment the words left her lips, the slender figure across from him moved instantly.
Her moves were simple, her long sword coming at Chen Ping'an with incredible speed, aimed directly at his throat.
And Chen Ping'an seemed to be stunned by the sudden change before him, standing still as a statue.
"Uncle Zhong didn't say that this kid was very skilled, killing Wu Shengjie and Chen Changsheng who were equally famous as him How come he doesn't seem to know martial arts at all, not even dodging"
The woman saw that Chen Ping had no reaction, and she wondered in her heart.
Soon, her long sword was right in front of Chen Ping'an's throat, about to pierce him. Suddenly, a faint whooshing sound came from the side. Two equally gleaming daggers flew over, one accurately deflecting the long sword that was about to pierce Chen Ping'an's throat, and the other targeting the woman's throat.
The woman was taken aback, immediately abandoned her goal, and retreated in a panic!
At this moment, a black shadow seemed to materialize out of thin air, standing before Chen Ping'an and shielding him behind.
"Shadow, it's you!"
Seeing the sudden appearance of the shadow, the woman exclaimed in surprise!
Because this shadow is the personal bodyguard of Chen Changsheng, one of the three great demons from the southwest!
Chen Changsheng's achievements in his lifetime could not have been made without this shadow.
Wasn't Uncle Kezhong saying that Chen Changsheng and Wu Shengjie were both killed by this man in front of us
How can a shadow still protect himplace, subconsciously pointing at Zhao Min."Little sister, what did you just say You said she was the granddaughter of the old war god, Zhao Min"Zhu Dashi's face was full of disbelief.Actually, he had...
