Chapter 151 Taking Control of the Situation

Pei Yanting immediately offered a solution: "Didn't I just say? Go to the outskirts and take them out."

Jiang Yuning is a law-abiding citizen of the country; she never does anything illegal.

She reminded him at the right moment, "Mr. Pei, murder is a crime."

Pei Yanting was decisive and ruthless in his actions, and he always hated being threatened.

A dark aura welled up in his eyes, and an aura that kept strangers at bay surrounded him.

"If you don't kill him, he'll kill you. In this world, many people have done things that are beyond the law, and they still live just fine, don't they?"

Jiang Yuning fell silent. She understood Pei Yanting's unspoken meaning, but his words made her feel deeply uneasy.

She sat quietly in the car, trying to figure out the best solution to the current situation.

Not long after, Pei Yanting's car stopped.

Jiang Yuning looked around and found that the place was sparsely populated and desolate, with no trace of pedestrians even in the distance.

She turned her head slightly and noticed that the two black cars that had been following them had stopped.

A group of tall, burly men dressed in black stepped out of the car, each carrying a stick and exuding a fierce aura.

The driver, who was sitting in the driver's seat, got out of the car; he was not carrying any weapons.

Jiang Yuning couldn't help but feel a little worried. While she was observing, Pei Yanting also got out of the car.

“Ms. Jiang, no matter what happens, you must stay in the car and do not get out.”

Jiang Yuning nodded. She understood the current situation and knew she absolutely couldn't cause them trouble or hold them back at this time.

"Okay, Mr. Pei, please be careful."

Pei Yanting closed the car door and walked steadily toward the group of people.

The distance between them gradually shortened, and a tense atmosphere filled the air.

One of the men in the lead said, "Hand over the woman in the car to me, and I'll let you go."

Since his last encounter with Fu Xicheng, Pei Yanting hadn't practiced martial arts for a long time, and today this group of people were just in time for their good day.

Pei Yanting lowered his gaze slightly, his tone very calm, "Awen, let's have a speed contest."

A-Wen dared not compete with Pei Yanting in speed or skill; he was well aware of his own limitations.

"Sir, I admit defeat."

Pei Yanting snorted coldly. He surrendered before even fighting. He was quick to give up.

Pei Yanting's aura changed instantly. He was agile and swift, and kicked the leader of the group to the ground in an instant.

The situation changed rapidly. Seeing that things were not going well, all the people rushed towards the two of them.

Two of the men rushed toward the vehicle where Jiang Yuning was.

With a swift move, A-Wen threw the man who was brushing past her to the ground.

He picked up the fallen stick and smashed it down on the man.

Jiang Yuning, sitting in the car, witnessed everything. No wonder Pei Yanting dared to fight even with nothing in his hands; in fact, he had already taken control of the entire situation.

Pei Yanting and Awen moved nimbly through the crowd, their movements as well as those of well-trained soldiers, their coordination seamless.

They quickly took control of the situation.

Pei Yanting dusted himself off, got back into the car, and regained his previous composure.

He parted his thin lips slightly, "Miss Jiang, everything is resolved." The shock in Jiang Yuning's eyes had not completely faded. She gazed at Pei Yanting, "Mr. Pei, thank you. I'm so grateful to have you here tonight."

Pei Yanting smiled faintly; his face was covered in a thin layer of sweat from his exercise.

“You are Fu Xicheng’s friend, and indirectly, you are also my friend, Miss Jiang. I didn’t force you to say thank you, did I?”

Jiang Yuning's eyes flickered for a moment, but she quickly regained her composure. Pei Yanting brought up the old matter again; it seemed he was a vengeful man.

"Mr. Pei is too kind. I really want to thank you."

The car started slowly and soon drove away from the desolate suburbs.

The setting sun cast a golden glow, reflecting their silhouettes on the car window.

Jiang Yuning looked out the car window and broke the silence first, "This road doesn't seem to lead to my house?"

Pei Yanting glanced at her sideways, a smile hidden deep in his eyes. "You're only realizing it now?"

Jiang Yuning's heart tightened. She seemed to recognize this road. She then asked, "This road leads to Fu Xicheng's villa on the outskirts of the city, Mr. Pei. Am I right?"

Pei Yanting nodded, his calm tone carrying a hint of nonchalance, "He considered that there were many people watching your house, so he asked me to pick you up and stay at his house for a while."

Jiang Yuning was stunned for a while, but she was going to Kyoto tomorrow and hadn't gone home to pack her luggage yet.

She lowered her head, her hands clasped together on her knees.

She thought for a moment, then said, "Mr. Pei, I want to go home."

Come back home?

Was everything he just said just nonsense? Does she even know that there are so many dangers lurking around her home?

"Miss Jiang, it seems you didn't listen to me. You want to go home so they can catch you red-handed?"

Jiang Yuning took a deep breath, a determined look flashing in her eyes, "I know there is danger. Rather than hiding like this, I might as well take the initiative."

Pei Yanting glanced at her sideways, his tone tinged with curiosity, "How do you plan to attack? Tell me about it."

To be honest, Jiang Yuning didn't know how to retaliate. She knew that the current situation was unpredictable, so she would just take it one step at a time, since hiding was not a long-term solution.

"I don't have a specific solution; I can only adapt to the situation."

Jiang Yuning's eyes flickered slightly, and she continued, "Since they want to use me to restrain Fu Xicheng, even if I fall into their hands, they won't dare to hurt me rashly."

Pei Yanting frowned slightly. He was dissatisfied with Jiang Yuning's behavior of putting herself in danger without her consent. She could have avoided it, but she chose to face it head-on.

He couldn't understand why Fu Xicheng had taken a liking to her.

Pei Yanting's tone carried a subtle emotional fluctuation, "Miss Jiang, so you're just willingly letting them manipulate you like this?"

Jiang Yuning has her own thoughts: "I just want to live the life I used to live, and I don't want to live in constant fear like this."

Upon hearing this, a cold smile flashed across Pei Yanting's lips. "It seems I can't argue with Miss Jiang. Awen, take Miss Jiang home."

"Yes, sir."

Awen skillfully maneuvered the steering wheel, turned the car around, and safely delivered Jiang Yuning home.

Jiang Yuning looked at the familiar apartment building in front of her, her heart filled with complex emotions.

After thanking Pei Yanting, she got out of the car.

In the car, A-Wen didn't rush to drive back. He asked uncertainly, "Sir, do you need us to send someone to secretly protect Miss Jiang?"

Pei Yanting narrowed his eyes and uttered a vague statement, "What do you think?"
