Soon, the two cars were closing in.

The nearest car was less than 200 meters away, and its headlights were blinding.

Chen Mo did not slow down.

He held the steering wheel with one hand and groped the burly man in the passenger seat with the other, finding the stun gun.

It's black, palm-sized, and has two electrode heads.

He handed the stun gun to Gu Qingyao.

"Take it."

Gu Qingyao took it.

"Do you know how to use it? Just press this switch, point it at the person and press it."

"Okay...okay."

"Shock them! Shock them hard!"

"oh oh."

crackling sounds...

Chen Mo glanced at the rearview mirror, and Gu Qingyao trembled along with him.

Step on the gas.

The engine revved up, and the speedometer jumped from sixty to eighty, ninety, and one hundred.

The road is narrow, with banana groves on both sides, many bends, and potholes.

However, after undergoing the bone marrow cleansing and body tempering, Chen Mo's abilities in all aspects improved.

In addition, his X-ray vision and photographic memory allow him to drive exceptionally well.

In the rearview mirror, the two cars had already caught up.

They are off-road vehicles, durable, which gives them an advantage on these kinds of roads.

The nearest car was less than fifty meters away, its headlights illuminating the entire carriage.

Gu Qingyao turned around and looked back, her face turning pale.

"Chen Mo, they're catching up!"

"Fasten your seatbelts!"

Chen Mo's gaze fell on the intersection ahead.

Three hundred meters ahead is a T-junction.

"Check the navigation, which direction in the city?"

"Left."

At the last second before the intersection, I suddenly swerved to the right.

The tires screeched on the asphalt, the car spun in a sharp arc, and then veered sharply to the left, heading towards the city.

The cars behind didn't have time to react. One of them sped straight through the intersection, and the other braked suddenly to catch up, but it had already been left hundreds of meters behind.

Fortunately, Gu Qingyao was wearing her seatbelt and wasn't thrown out; her shoulder only bumped slightly against the car door.

She gripped the stun gun, staring intently at the back window.

In the rearview mirror, the car caught up again.

Fortunately, the road became wider and better, allowing Chen Mo to take advantage of his driving skills, flooring the accelerator and speeding up.

In the distance, police sirens sounded.

Chen Mo finally felt a sense of security.

"Mr. Chen, we have set up a checkpoint ahead. Please drive north along xx road and be careful."

Chen Mo glanced at the rearview mirror.

The two cars stopped chasing and turned around and drove away.

Not long after they started driving, the police finally met up with them.

The police stopped the car, apprehended the three individuals, and conducted an on-site investigation. This was further supported by the identification documents produced by Chen Mo and Gu Qingyao, as well as the controlled knife and gun found in the car, and the other party's identification documents…

The matter is clear.

"Ms. Gu, Mr. Chen, please cooperate by going to the Municipal Public Security Bureau to give a statement. The rest is up to us."

After giving my statement at the municipal police station, it was already seven o'clock.

Chen Mo leaned against a bench in the city bureau's corridor, his eyelids drooping.

Gu Qingyao sat next to him, her face extremely unpleasant.

She knew her information had been leaked.

Either her assistant Liu Xi leaked it, or she was being watched, but only Liu Xi knew about it, so it's highly likely that Liu Xi betrayed her.

Ah, it seems that touching Zhao Qiming has touched the interests of certain people. There are big problems within Shengheng.

She looked at Chen Mo.

This is the person who not only dealt with Zhao Qiming's gang.

It even saved her life.

He is not only an expert in appraising treasures, but also incredibly skilled in martial arts.

He remained incredibly calm in critical moments, giving her an unprecedented sense of security.

Before she came, she had already decided to keep him at all costs.

Now, that idea is even more firmly established.

"Chen Mo, thank you. If it weren't for you, I would have been in big trouble this time."

Chen Mo opened his eyes.

"I knew you were a troublemaker; nothing good ever comes from being with you."

Gu Qingyao's lips curled up slightly. "Chen Mo, you may not be able to escape. The interest group behind Zhao Qiming has made its move, and I have a rough idea of ​​who wants my life."

"Zhao Mingyuan has met you before, and he probably already guessed that you are the expert who gave me advice, so now we're in the same boat."

Chen Mo suddenly stood up.

"Damn it! You have to give me enough benefits, or I'll compromise with Zhao Qiming and his gang."

Gu Qingyao suddenly moved closer to him, even standing on tiptoe and bringing her face close to his.

Chen Mo immediately stepped back, "What are you doing? Don't try to use your feminine wiles on me."

To be honest, I kind of regret getting involved in Gu Qingyao's affairs.

But the regret only lasted for a moment.

Since it has happened, we have to face it.

To gain greater benefits.

At the very least, he and Jubaozhai should occupy an irreplaceable position in Shengheng's cultural landscape.

Gu Qingyao took another step forward, wanting to say something, but didn't.

At this moment, the police officers poured them two cups of hot water.

"Mr. Chen, Chairman Gu, how about we arrange for you to return to your hotel to rest first? We will notify you as soon as we have any news."

The police officer taking my statement was very polite.

"Okay, thank you for your help."

The two returned to the hotel where Gu Qingyao was staying.

"Mr. Gu, please get some rest and wait for news from the police."

Gu Qingyao grabbed his hand. "Chen Mo, don't go. Stay with me. I'm scared."

Chen Mo knew that Gu Qingyao was terrified.

"Alright."

This place is quite far from the guesthouse.

I haven't slept all night, I'm very sleepy.

Upon entering the room, I collapsed onto the bed and placed a pillow between my legs.

"Don't cross the line."

He took out his phone and sent a message to Yu Linglong, telling her that he would sleep until noon and that he would contact her. He also told her that she could call him if there was any emergency.

Then he fell fast asleep.

Gu Qingyao stomped her foot, her face full of anger.

He thought to himself, "This bastard actually looks down on me?"

She went into the bathroom, closed the door, and called her father, Gu Chengyuan, to tell him about it.

Gu Chengyuan sounded very worried and scolded her.

"Dad, I was wrong this time. I shouldn't have come alone."

"I originally intended to let Zhao Qiming go so that everyone could have some dignity, but now I'm going to deal with him, and I need your help."

There was a moment of silence on the other end of the phone. "Fine, since they're being ruthless, don't blame me for being ruthless too. If we're going to do it, we'll do it with all our might. It's either them or us who die."

"However, taking them down won't be that easy. We need to find the perfect opportunity to strike them dead. Also, they won't give up easily. Be careful over there. I'll send a security team over immediately."

"Dad, don't send anyone over specifically. Just have them come with the people from the jade business department. They can meet at the public auction. I don't trust anyone else now, I only trust Chen Mo."

"Alright, once we find out Chen Mo's background, if he has a clean record, you must hold on to him. No one is more suitable to be my son-in-law than him."

"Also, I will talk to Qin Hao about this. He has a company and influence over there, and he is also Old Master Qin's grandson, so he is trustworthy."

Gu Qingyao returned to the room, took off her shoes, lay down, turned to her side, and looked at the man.

The more you look at it, the more interesting it becomes.

Although his face wasn't exceptionally handsome or very fair-skinned, it was resolute and pleasing to the eye.

She recalled his decisiveness, calmness, and strength in the car, and her heart pounded.

This was a feeling she had never experienced before.

She also recalled how Chen Mo appraised the treasures in the museum. He was low-key, knew when to advance and retreat, and was rational. He did not fawn over her because of her status or interests.

She had many suitors, including many from noble families.

But I was never tempted.

At that moment, she knew that she had truly fallen for him.

It wasn't just about profit and the company; I was genuinely tempted.

However, her marriage involves her family and company, so it cannot be done so casually. We still have to wait for Luo Li's investigation report.

She moved to the middle but didn't remove the pillow.

Chen Mo slept until noon before opening his eyes.

Ok?

He smelled a delicate fragrance, turned his head, and saw a top-notch face.

This girl is so beautiful.

Just then, the phone rang; it was Gu Qingyao.

Gu Qingyao opened her eyes and picked up the phone to answer it.

"Okay, I'll be right there."

She sat up. "Chen Mo, the police have information. They say they've arrested quite a few people and know who they are. They want us to come over."
