Chapter 498: Assaulted

No matter how calm Zhou Weiqi looked, or how much he was trying to hide the fact that he had noticed the followers, the van behind suddenly overtook their car and blocked their way out.

“Sit tight, Jiang Yao! I’m turning back!” Seeing a couple of big burly guys exiting the van, he decided to make a turn and drive toward the opposite direction.

However, it was a narrow street. No matter how fast Zhou Weiqi was, his car was swiftly surrounded by the people from the van.

“Get out of the car!” The thugs warned, hitting the car with a wooden baton. “Don’t make me turn your car into scrap metal!”

“Stay inside!” Zhou Weiqi said. “I don’t think they’re here for our lives!”

“Who are they here for?” Jiang Yao was puzzled.

Zhou Weiqi shook his head. He gestured at the thugs, expressing his willingness to not cause any more trouble.

“I think they’re here for you!” Jiang Yao saw the head thug holding a photograph and looking long and hard at Zhou Weiqi, seemingly to confirm if he was the person they were looking for.

Zhou Weiqi breathed a sigh of relief hearing that he was the target, which meant Jiang Yao’s safety was a little more assured.

He unbuckled his seat belt but kept the keys in the ignition and whispered, “Wait till I distract them, then you drive away!”

Just as swiftly, he opened the doors, jumped out, and immediately locked it behind him.

“Zhou Weiqi! It is you! I was right!” The head thug flung the photograph away and turned his attention toward the lady in the car, his expression turned vulgar for a moment.

“Boss, what about the lady in the car?”

The rest immediately seized Zhou Weiqi as he exited the car. They also noticed a lady, a very pretty one, sitting in the car.

“Just come at me, why do you have to involve her?” Zhou Weiqi winked at Jiang Yao, motioning for her to make an escape.

She sat in the car instead and studied the band of thugs. They seemed like your common street hooligans, not too threatening. Who was the one ordering the kidnap of Zhou Weiqi though?

Jiang Yao noticed Zhou Weiqi’s wink, but she sat still, thinking how many of these thugs she could defeat on her own.

“Get her out of the car! We don’t want her to go to the police!” The head thug ordered.

Jiang Yao was a step quicker; she exited the car herself.

She did not know how long it would take for Chen Xuyao to arrive. Anyway, with Zhou Weiqi a military school graduate, no matter how weak he was, he definitely could hold the situation for some time.

In her palms were some itchy powder she retrieved from the Medical System; this was her trump card. She gave Zhou Weiqi a look, to which he responded with a smile, and she went off, kicking the head thug standing closest to him, sending him flying a few meters away!

“Amazing!” Zhou Weiqi exclaimed before overpowering a skinny guy, who was holding him down, and sent another man crashing over him.
