The Ice King's Little Trouble Maker-Chapter 580 - 544 Acquaintance
A fleet of cars suddenly burst out from the side road.
Gu Yanjingβs car was at the forefront again. πππ¦β―πΈπ¦ππππ·β―π.πππ
He immediately turned the wheel.
One of the opposing cars also crashed towards him.
But because Qiao Yuxian was in the passenger seat, he was afraid of hurting Qiao Yuxian, so he turned the wheel to the right and blocked the incoming car with his side.
The speed was fast; he suddenly turned the wheel and got hit again by the car.
The whole car spun 360 degrees on the road.
The car hadnβt stabilized, and Lin Huai Shu, from behind, quickly drove forward to block the car that was about to hit Gu Yanjing again.
After blocking the car, he weaved through several cars.
Forced several cars to a halt.
As expected of someone who runs a racetrack, Lin Huai Shuβs driving skills were superb.
Qin Xia and the followers from the Gu Family and Chu Family also caught up.
After Gu Yanjing stabilized his car, he didnβt stop, taking advantage of Lin Huai Shu and Qin Xia blocking the cars. He drove straight ahead, continuing to chase the cars in front.
"Gu Yanjing, you..." Qiao Yuxianβs tone was urgent, her voice trembling.
She didnβt dare imagine what would have happened to Gu Yanjing if the car had crashed heavily.
She didnβt finish her sentence, and Gu Yanjing said, "Itβs fine. Iβm fine. Donβt worry."
Several cars from the Gu family followed them.
Several cars from the fleet that suddenly appeared also immediately followed to intercept.
In the late night, on a certain road in Jin City, a "car battle" ensued.
Roaring sounds and collision noises kept ringing out on the road.
The sparks from the friction and collisions were blinding in the night.
Qiao Yuxian tossed her computer to the back seat, grabbed a gun, lowered the car window, and fired directly.
She aimed at the tires.
The opponents also fired at her tires.
The roaring sounds were interspersed with gunshots.
Eventually, both sidesβ cars were forced to stop.
Gu Yanjingβs car, due to its better performance, was the last to stop.
By the time they stopped, those who had stopped earlier, the Gu family, the Chu family, and the cars that suddenly appeared, were already fighting.
Gu Yanjing and Qiao Yuxian immediately got out of the car.
Gu Yanjing grabbed a gun.
Qiao Yuxian took a sniper rifle from the back seat.
She observed the surroundings, holding the sniper, and climbed a tree in a few swift steps.
Once positioned in the tree, she set up the rifle, aiming at the cars they were pursuing.
Gu Yanjing stood below, holding a gun, supporting her aim, protecting her.
There were several cars in front, but during the chase, it was clear they were protecting one specific car.
Qiao Yuxian aimed at the tire of that car, estimating its forward path.
With a swift pull of the trigger, the bullet shot out with a bang, hitting the tire perfectly.
The car veered sharply, skidding for a distance.
But it didnβt stop.
Qiao Yuxian quickly aimed for a second shot.
Just as she was estimating the carβs speed and distance to pull the trigger, her vision suddenly went black.
For a moment, she fell into darkness, unable to see anything.
Qiao Yuxian instinctively pulled the trigger, but missed the intended spot, deviating.
The car didnβt stop.
Gu Yanjing looked at Qiao Yuxian.
He seemed surprised that she missed the shot.
After a moment of blindness, Qiao Yuxianβs vision quickly returned, but it was still blurry.
Through the sniper rifleβs scope, she watched the rapidly fleeing cars.
She aimed again, calculating the distance, and fired.
But the battered car was fleeing desperately, already too far, beyond the sniperβs range.
Through the scope, Qiao Yuxian watched them getting farther, her face becoming increasingly grim.
She appeared calm on the surface, but inside, she felt like she was on fire, her blood and nerves boiling.
There had been a chance, a chance to stop them.
Qiao Yuxian gripped the sniper rifle tightly, inwardly cursing herself, "Useless!"
"Qiao Yuxian," Gu Yanjing called out to her from below.
Qiao Yuxian snapped back to reality, assessed the situation around her, and then jumped down the tree.
Their cars were now unusable.
Gu Yanjing contacted others to continue the pursuit.
He stood behind a large tree, completely shielding himself.
After climbing down, Qiao Yuxian went straight to his side.
Gu Yanjing looked at her.
This mistake was not something Gu Yanjing had anticipated.
Evidently, neither had Qiao Yuxian expected her current state.
Gu Yanjingβs first thought was she might be unwell, so he asked, "Whatβs wrong?"
Qiao Yuxianβs eyes had cleared up, the previous blurriness, and brief loss of vision felt like a glitchy dream.
Seeing the concern deep in Gu Yanjingβs eyes, she opened her mouth but only said three words in the end, "I missed."
Gu Yanjing looked at her remorseful expression, patted her head, and said, "Itβs okay. Letβs handle the present first."
"Okay." Qiao Yuxian threw the sniper rifle on the ground, took the handgun from her back, crouched, and hid behind the tree, shooting.
After a round of gunfire.
Qiao Yuxian identified the leader on the other side.
Without an exchange, she and Gu Yanjing ran towards that person simultaneously.
Their leader was skillful, wrapped up tightly, and appeared to be a woman.
Gu Yanjing and Qiao Yuxian charged towards her, engaging in combat.
After a couple of moves, Qiao Yuxian pulled Gu Yanjing away, "Iβll handle this."
Gu Yanjing paused, looked at her, and didnβt step forward again.
Qiao Yuxian was fuming inside, needing to vent or she wouldnβt be able to sleep later.
Gu Yanjing, therefore, refrained from interfering, dealing with others around but never straying too far from Qiao Yuxian.
Qiao Yuxian fought with the leader.
At first, they were evenly matched.
But soon, Qiao Yuxian exerted her strength.
Her punches hit hard, pain penetrating deeply.
The opponent was skillful, but couldnβt withstand Qiao Yuxianβs frenzied attacks.
Despite the mad assault, the opponent persistently tried to escape.
They had already let one group slip through.
How could she be allowed to escape?
Each attempted escape was met with Qiao Yuxian bringing her back, each time more ruthlessly.
Around them, others were already subdued.
This leader persisted, though.
Lin Huai Shu watched from the side, puzzled over her persistence.
The outcome was clear; she couldnβt escape, surrendering sooner would mean less beating.
Yet she continued trying to flee.
But escape was impossible now.
Qiao Yuxian kicked the person away.
The person slammed her back against a car, rebounded slightly.
Qiao Yuxian swiftly approached, grabbed her by the neck, and slammed her into the car again.
Then, twisting her arm behind her back, Qiao Yuxian pressed her head down onto the hood.
The leader was rendered unable to resist instantly.
"Tsk tsk tsk," remarked Lin Huai Shu, "The little sister-in-law is fierce."
"Was Gu Yao in that car earlier?" Qiao Yuxian asked.
The leader didnβt speak, struggling again.
It earned her Qiao Yuxianβs grip, close to breaking her bones.
Qiao Yuxian continued, "Were you the one covering for him at the checkpoint in Capital City?"
She didnβt have evidence, but her intuition led her to ask.
The leader stayed silent.
Qiao Yuxian pressed her head down, observing her.
The leader was tightly wrapped up.
Not only was her face covered, but even her eyes were shrouded with a layer of black gauze.
The night was dark, and they werenβt under a street light. In the shadows, the gauze seemed darker.
But as Qiao Yuxian stared, questioning, gradually, through the gauze, she vaguely discerned her brows and eyes.
A familiar feeling welled up in her heart.
Qiao Yuxian suddenly frowned.
Then she reached out and pulled off the cloth covering her face and the gauze over her eyes.
With nothing obstructing, the leaderβs entire face was revealed.
Although there were some swollen spots.
She was easily recognized.
Qiao Yuxianβs pupils trembled violently in shock, "Shi Tan?!"
