Chapter 191: Chapter 191: Tu Anliang Blocks the Way

Before I knew it, Friday had arrived.

There was only one day left until Li Qiao finished her internship.

Early in the morning, she arrived at the office and stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling windows with a coffee in hand, gazing at the entire South Sea City with dark, heavy waves in her eyes.

In the future, it would probably be very difficult to see this view again.

It wasn’t even nine in the morning yet, and Shang Yu hadn’t arrived.

Li Qiao paced back to her desk, planning to reorganize her recent work.

Before long, Luoyu knocked on the door and entered, speaking to Li Qiao formally, "Master Yan is at the Bolan Golf Course; he wants us to go there now."

Li Qiao glanced at the clock instinctively, "Now?"

So early in the morning, he’s gone to play golf?

Luoyu nodded firmly, her short hair swinging with the motion, "I will wait for you in the parking lot."

With that, she left without waiting for Li Qiao’s response.

Confused, Li Qiao pondered for a moment, then, without further hesitation, shut down her computer and left the office.

...

Within less than ten minutes, the Mercedes-Benz left the underground parking lot of the Yan Emperor.

Relaxed in her posture, Li Qiao leaned back in the seat and glanced at Luoyu, who was driving, "Does he usually like to play golf in the morning?"

What kind of hobby is this?

Luoyu pursed her lips and shook her head while holding the steering wheel, "He hardly ever does; just now it was Liuyun who told us to go there."

Ah, no wonder Luoyu was the one to pass on the message.

Understanding, Li Qiao closed her eyes, intending to catch some sleep during the car ride.

About twenty minutes into the drive, a sudden screeching halt woke Li Qiao, "Miss Li, be careful."

The sudden braking was unexpected and coupled with Luoyu’s cry of alarm.

Luoyu tried to extend her hand to block Li Qiao from lurching forward due to the sudden stop, but Li Qiao reacted swiftly, noticing something was amiss the moment the car body started to shake violently.

Thereby, when the car came to a halt, Luoyu looked towards the passenger seat with a slightly panicked expression... which was quite dramatic.

At this moment, Li Qiao leaned back in her seat, her right knee bent and resting on the storage box in front of the passenger seat, her gaze fixed through the windshield, flickering with a sharp light.

Outside the window, three vehicles had stopped Li Qiao’s Mercedes, two vans, and a Volkswagen Phaeton.

Li Qiao squinted at the Phaeton’s license plate and her eyelids dropped knowingly.

Just the day before yesterday, she had promised her teacher to stay out of Tu Anliang’s business.

To her surprise, it had only been a day, and Tu Anliang had come looking for her himself.

At this point, Luoyu had already unbuckled her seatbelt and gotten out of the car.

Li Qiao didn’t move, maintaining her original posture, and calmly rolled down the window.

Outside, one of the subordinates opened the rear door of the Phaeton, and Tu Anliang, dressed in a blue stand-collar tracksuit, slowly got out of the car.

They were parked near a fork in the road at the entrance to the expressway, with cars coming and going all around, and many people slowed down their windows to watch the scene unfold.

Tu Anliang ignored Luoyu, stroking his goatee and focusing his gaze on Li Qiao’s license plate.

He squinted towards the passenger side, his eyes flashing with malevolent intent.

Tu Anliang walked towards the Mercedes without uttering a word; after two steps, an outstretched arm blocked his path.

Luoyu looked at Tu Anliang with an indifferent expression and an imposing demeanor, "Stop right there."

Tu Anliang glanced at her arm, said nothing, took a step back, and gestured with his mouth to his subordinates.

Suddenly, nearly a dozen thugs rushed out from the two vans.

They quickly surrounded Luoyu, and it seemed as if a major altercation was about to begin.

However, with a click, the door to the passenger side of the Mercedes was pushed open, and Li Qiao emerged gracefully and unhurriedly.
