Shocking! She Returned with a Miniature Bigshot

Chapter 29


Chapter 29

Just downstairs, Lu Zhiyuan stared at the rain curtain. Gu Ci could clearly see the struggle in his eyes. He didn’t want to share the same room with her. Gu Ci firmly believed that Lu Zhiyuan had a secret crush on her, and in this reincarnation, she naturally treated him as her husband. This was the first time she realized clearly that the twenty-year-old Lu Zhiyuan might truly not have feelings for her.

“Gu Ci, I haven’t trained today. I’ll go for a swim downstairs,” Lu Zhiyuan’s voice remained calm. “If you’re hungry, order something to eat. Go to bed early. I might come back later.”

The presidential suite had one door, leading to two separate rooms that wouldn’t disturb each other.

“Okay!” Gu Ci lowered her head to tidy up her skincare products. After Lu Zhiyuan left, she also gazed at the stormy weather, lost in thought. “Have I been blinded by love?”

Memories were like a knife, always stabbing her, causing her to bleed. She had tried her best not to dwell on her past life. “But if he doesn’t have feelings for me, why does he pay so much attention to me?”

Lu Zhiyuan had a strong passion for extreme sports and racing. He had stood prominently at the center of the world for many years, seemingly unaffected by money, beautiful women, or power. So why did he specifically focus his attention on Gu Ci?

Gu Ci couldn’t understand it.

If she couldn’t figure it out, she would let it go. Gu Ci didn’t want to dwell too much on it. She and Lu Zhiyuan were destined to be entangled in each other’s lives. There was no rush to understand everything. After taking a relaxing bath, a call suddenly came from Gu Ziyu. “Mom, you and Dad need to go see Uncle immediately. I sent the location to your phone.”

Before Gu Ci could ask any questions, she picked up her car keys and headed out. Gu Ziyu said, “Uncle is going to find Zhang Xiaomei in Haicheng. The Haicheng branch of the Black Hawk Group received orders to intercept Uncle. Today, there’s a typhoon in Haicheng. I’ve simulated his driving route. You need to go to the intersection north of Lingnan Road. You should be able to meet him there. Mom, don’t take any risks alone. Take Dad with you.”

“I understand!” Gu Ci said softly and hung up the phone. She immediately called Lu Zhiyuan, but there was no answer even after three rings. Gu Ci left a message and left the hotel, driving towards Lingnan Road.

After setting up the navigation, another call came in from Gu Ziyu. Gu Ci asked, “Is it Gu Chuyun again? She’s audacious!”

“No, it’s not her,” Gu Ziyu continued to track the source of the information. “I received a message from Ji Cheng. The orders came from the headquarters of the Black Hawk Group. Gu Chuyun doesn’t have that kind of power, Mom… Mom… contact… Mom?”

The storm in Haicheng intensified, and the strong winds blew debris onto the road, breaking an electric pole. The lights in two blocks went out, and sporadic lights disappeared in the storm. Gu Ci couldn’t hear clearly what Gu Ziyu was saying. The signal weakened, so Gu Ci hung up the phone, stepped on the gas pedal, and accelerated forward.

After meeting Zhang Xiaomei, Jiang Junlin sensed that a storm was approaching. Not long after leaving the house, he realized that two cars had been following him. With the typhoon warning, there were hardly any cars on the streets. Jiang Junlin was forced onto Lingnan Road, where the traffic lights at the intersection had long been extinguished. A car blocked the lane, but the visibility was too low. When Jiang Junlin was forced to brake, he was only a meter away from colliding with the car in front. The two cars behind him stopped ten meters behind.

Inside the leading car sat a muscular young man with a shaved head and a pair of intimidating eyes, resembling a bald eagle. Rain splashed onto his wet shirt, and he made a gun gesture towards Jiang Junlin, a murderous intent in his eyes.

Jiang Junlin stomped on the accelerator and rushed down the slope, skillfully controlling the car. He crashed through the guardrail and onto another road. The three cars followed closely behind, racing down the slope.

The typhoon disrupted the signal, and Jiang Junlin dialed the emergency hotline once again, providing his location and route.

However, in the instant he hung up the phone, a momentary lapse of attention caused him to notice a car approaching in the opposite direction. It collided head-on with his car, flipping it over. Glass shattered, embedding fragments into his arm. Jiang Junlin lay inside the overturned vehicle, forcefully kicking open the door and crawling out in a disheveled state. The rainwater mixed with his blood, forming a crimson pool.

The four cars stopped by the roadside, and the bald man got out of his car, roughly grabbing Jiang Junlin. “Mr. Jiang, I’m sorry, but your life is worth too much.”

“Is that so?” Jiang Junlin smirked, swiftly unsheathing his knife. With a cold glint, he aimed directly at the bald man’s eyes. The bald man reacted quickly, tilting his head back and cursing loudly, then kicked toward Jiang Junlin.

Jiang Junlin took the blow, rolling on the ground. The bald man reached for his gun, pointing it at Jiang Junlin. Suddenly, a high beam of light swept across, and the bald man raised his hand to shield his eyes. In that moment, Jiang Junlin took cover behind the overturned car.

With thick clouds overhead and rolling thunder, Gu Ci burst through the rain, shattering countless raindrops in her path. She charged towards the bald man, ruthlessly knocking him aside. The bald man flew out, and Gu Ci shouted, “Brother, get in the car!”

Jiang Junlin reacted swiftly, quickly getting into the car as Gu Ci sped away, leaving the scene behind.

“Chase them!” The bald man rolled on the ground, then got up and the four cars pursued Gu Ci at full speed. Gu Ci calmly drove the car, while Jiang Junlin looked straight at her. “Gu Ci?”

Gu Ci opened the storage compartment. “First, stop the bleeding!”

Jiang Junlin didn’t waste any words. There were only tissues in the compartment, but it would do for his superficial wounds. He casually wiped away the blood. “Head towards the police station.”

“I know!” Gu Ci asked calmly, “Who have you offended?”

Jiang Junlin crumpled the bloodied tissue and glanced back at the four cars relentlessly chasing them. His voice was cold. “In the business world, harmony leads to prosperity. I’m also curious who is so clueless.”

A bullet struck the car, and Jiang Junlin quickly ducked down, his voice stern. “Lower your head!”

Gu Ci also lowered her body as the bald man fired a shot at the tire, causing it to burst. The car became difficult to control. Gu Ci asked, “Can it still run?”

“It can!”

Gu Ci glanced at his blood-soaked pant leg and made a right turn into an alley. The two quickly got out of the car and disappeared into the alley. It was a narrow alley in a village within the city. On this stormy day, every household was tightly shut, and rainwater washed away footprints and blood. The two ran through the village, their pursuers’ footsteps splashing through the water behind them. Ahead, a gleam of silver shone brightly as the bald man swung his knife at Gu Ci. Jiang Junlin grabbed Gu Ci’s arm and pulled her towards him, avoiding the dagger. As the bald man kicked Jiang Junlin, Gu Ci agilely moved in front of him and her knife grazed Jiang Junlin’s blade, stabbing the bald man in the thigh.

The bald man let out a gruesome scream and retaliated by slashing Gu Ci’s arm. Jiang Junlin fell to the side, his head hitting a stone, rendering him unconscious.

“I’ll kill you!” The bald man’s eyes filled with murderous intent. But at that moment, a sharp scream pierced the air. “Ah! Murder, murder!”

Lights flickered in the village, and the sound of sirens approached from a short distance away. The bald man waved his hand, signaling everyone to retreat, and hastily left. Gu Ci rushed to help Jiang Junlin up. “Brother, wake up, please…”

Jiang Junlin showed no response.

Turning to the screaming woman, Gu Ci said, “Call an ambulance, thank you.”
