Chapter 469: Chapter 0471: The Newcomer Bodes Ill

Chu Ge had just left when the organizers arrived right after.

Zhao Wuji was leisurely sitting there drinking tea, fantasizing about his upcoming date with Mu Qing tonight.

He really had to thank Chu Ge; without him, he wouldn’t have this opportunity to have a private date with Mu Qing.

At that moment, there was a knock on the door, and Zhao Wuji faintly said, "Come in."

The door opened, and the first to enter was a middle-aged man with a slim physique, his bald head shiny under the light.

Zhao Wuji glanced up at him, seemed to realize something, and looked at him with a sudden understanding, "Mr. Chu has gone back to Su City due to some urgent matters."

The person who came was the organizer of this auction, the big boss of Longxiao Real Estate, Chen Liang.

Upon hearing that Chu Ge had already left, Chen Liang looked at Zhao Wuji with a pained expression, "I told you to keep him here, didn’t I? I still wanted to consult him about something."

Zhao Wuji scoffed, "You? What could you possibly have to discuss? You’re just a minor fan of Mr. Chu. I’d rather you try to butter me up; who knows, I might even take you to Su City to see Mr. Chu."

Chen Liang slammed his fist onto Zhao Wuji’s shoulder, "Dammit! I really needed him for something! Where did he go?"

Looking at Chen Liang’s serious expression, Zhao Wuji also felt that the situation might be getting serious.

He asked puzzledly, "What happened?"

Chen Liang sighed and explained, "There are some Japanese at this auction; they are after the secret manual too, but it has already ended up in Mr. Chu’s hands. Just now, the waiter serving their private room said they’ve gone to find Mr. Chu and are planning to intercept him on the road."

Chen Liang didn’t know that Chu Ge had lost his martial arts; he had never seen Chu Ge’s true capabilities before, so upon hearing this, his first thought was to come over and inform him urgently.

Only to be told that he had already left.

Zhao Wuji’s heart skipped a beat, he quickly took out his phone and called Chu Ge, but the phone rang for a while with no answer.

Chen Liang asked, "How is it? No answer?"

Zhao Wuji shook his head, "No answer; he left not long ago, perhaps we can still catch up to him."

Given the current pace, Chu Ge should not have left Dang City yet; they might still have time to catch up.

Meanwhile, Chu Ge and Huo Tianqian had driven out of the hotel and were headed back to Su City on the same route.

Huo Tianqian was driving the car; he had just had a good sleep and was very alert, whereas Chu Ge was barely keeping awake. As soon as he got in the car, he closed his eyes, planning to take a short nap.

The auction was held at a place some distance away from the center of Dang City, where the terrain was open and roads were wide.

The journey had been smooth without much traffic. Chu Ge was lying in the back seat, quickly falling asleep.

In his drowsy state, he heard Huo Tianqian say something about someone following them.

But Chu Ge was too tired, his consciousness unclear, even thinking it was a dream.

When he finally opened his eyes, Huo Tianqian had already driven to a suburban area.

Chu Ge frowned, looking at the unfamiliar surroundings, somewhat puzzled, "Where are you going?"

Seeing that Chu Ge was finally awake, Huo Tianqian, as if finding his mainstay, hurriedly said: "Mr. Chu, we are being followed."

Chu Ge, still groggy, asked, "Followed by what?"

Perhaps due to just waking up, his mind is still blank.

Huo Tianqian quickly glanced at the rearview mirror and said, "There’s a car that’s been following us."

Chu Ge looked back and saw a black Jeep following them; his vision was excellent, and he could clearly see the driver’s face.

"It’s a Japanese."

Chu Ge slightly furrowed his brows. Are they after the secret manual or are they after us?

"What should we do now?"

Huo Tianqian wanted to shake them off, but his driving skills were not great; he had tried several times without success.

If they stop now, they would definitely be caught up.

If their martial arts were still intact, they wouldn’t fear them at all, but now that their martial arts are gone, if these people catch up, there might be trouble...

Huo Tianqian dared not think further.

The car they drove today was a black Maybach, and the interior was quite spacious. Chu Ge bent over from the back seat to the passenger’s seat and then said to Huo Tianqian, "You go to the back, I’ll handle the steering wheel."

Huo Tianqian hesitated for a moment. The steering wheel was steady, but who would press the accelerator?

If the accelerator is released, the speed would definitely slow down, and if the speed slows down, the people behind would catch up.

Wouldn’t they still be at their mercy by then?

Chu Ge pressed something in the car and urgently instructed Huo Tianqian, "Quick, go to the back seat."

Huo Tianqian was stunned, hurriedly shrank, and moved back to the rear seat.

The moment Huo Tianqian moved to the back seat, Chu Ge took the driver’s seat.

The car gradually accelerated, Huo Tianqian, looking confused, watched the front and asked, "Mr. Chu, how did you do that?"

While driving, Chu Ge looked at the rearview mirror, the distance was slowly widening.

"This car is Mr. Tang’s special vehicle, designed with special modifications. Normally, it is manual, but when you face an emergency, you can press the lock button, which locks the accelerator. Today, when I went to borrow the car, Mr. Tang was also there, so he directly let me take his car."

Huo Tianqian knew about such self-controlled cars, but he didn’t know that a purely manual car could be modified like this.

"Mr. Tang really has some ideas," Huo Tianqian said jokingly.

He looked back, and the black Jeep seemed to be speeding up as well, closing the distance slightly.

Huo Tianqian knitted his brows, "Mr. Chu, what do you think their purpose is in chasing us? Is it the secret manual or..."

Huo Tianqian was very self-aware; he would never think that these people were after him. They were either after the secret manual or after Chu Ge.

Chu Ge chuckled lightly, "Whatever their purpose, they come with ill intentions. Besides, I’ve killed so many of their brothers before. Even if they’re here for the secret manual, are you sure that given their usual behavior, they wouldn’t kill us?"

"..." Huo Tianqian gritted his teeth in anger, those damned bastards!

"So, what should we do now? We can’t keep circling around like this," Huo Tianqian asked worriedly, "How about we just head back to Su City? We can call them on the way back and have them pick us up."
