In an instant, the man flew far away.
“Kill him.” Leng Shaoting gave an order to the flood dragon at the same time.
The flood dragon obeyed his order and went to catch the man at once.
It was impossible for the man to escape now, so he had to stop and fight against the flood dragon. Although he was at a lower level than the flood dragon, the fight still lasted for a long while. However, in a few minutes, the flood dragon caught the man and absorbed his energy.
The next second, the man became a cloud of black air and disappeared.
After that, the flood dragon went back to Leng Shaoting and Leng Shaoting thanked it. “Thanks.”
The flood dragon made a sound to reply to Leng Shaoting. Even though Leng Shaoting couldn’t understand it, he knew what it tried to tell him. Afterwards, Leng Shaoting put the flood dragon into his Qiankun Bag before he drove away.
Because he stayed away from the car during the fight with the man, it wasn’t damaged.
Leng Shaoting had no plan to tell Gu Ning about the accident. He was fine after all, and there was no need to worry her.
Actually, when he had the fight with the man, Gu Ning felt anxious and thought of Leng Shaoting, but she believed that he would be fine with the flood dragon’s help.
Gu Ning also worried that the Tang family might encounter trouble, so she called Gu Man. After knowing that the Tang family was safe, she felt relieved. When she felt anxious, there might not be an accident, but she needed to make sure that everything was fine.
At 5 pm, Chu Peihan and the others had almost finished shopping and they thought about what to have for dinner.
At this time, Gu Ning received Zhang Zikai’s call. Zhang Zikai told her that Mingzhe wanted to meet her.
Zhang Zikai felt reluctant to call Gu Ning, because Gu Ning had given her a helping hand and she didn’t want to cause her more trouble.
When Mingzhe called her and asked her to help him contact Gu Ning, she had tried to persuade Mingzhe to give it up. She didn’t care about Mingzhe, but she did about Gu Ning.
Although she believed that Gu Ning had many unbelievable skills, she still thought it was dangerous. However, Gu Ning had told her not to hesitate to call her if Mingzhe bothered her again, so Zhang Zikai called Gu Ning in the end.
In addition, Gu Ning also told her not to tell Mingzhe her ident.i.ty, so Zhang Zikai didn’t tell Mingzhe Gu Ning’s background after failing to persuade him to give up.
If Mingzhe learned more information about Gu Ning, he would be scared and withdraw.
Gu Ning didn’t allow Zhang Zikai to tell Mingzhe more details about her in order to teach him a lesson.
Gu Ning knew that Mingzhe wouldn’t accept the result when they first met each other, but she was surprised that he wanted to see her again so soon. It had only been a few days, and his injuries shouldn’t be healed right away.
Zhang Zikai then told her that Mingzhe wanted to meet her again not for a fight, but a car race tonight. If Gu Ning lost, she should kneel, kowtow, and say that she was sorry three times. If they lost, they would do the same thing.
Moreover, he could find someone else to do that for him, but Gu Ning couldn’t. Gu Ning had to race by herself with her own car. Which was obviously unfair, so he must be scheming against Gu Ning.
Gu Ning wasn’t afraid. She didn’t think there was anyone else who could do it better than her, even if it was a professional driver. She didn’t want other people to decide her destiny, she preferred to control her own life.
Mingzhe also said that he would sue her and her friends for beating people if she refused to accept the challenge. The driving recorder in his car had recorded everything, and he had made an injury report too.
Gu Ning wasn’t afraid of his threat at all, but she agreed without hesitation, because she had made it very clear that she was waiting for Mingzhe to challenge her.
“No problem, when and where?” asked Gu Ning.
“Eight pm, the twisting mountain road at Fushan.” Zhang Zikai said, “Gu Ning, if it’s difficult, you don’t have to go there. I can deal with him. It’s really dangerous to have a car race at night after all.”
“It’s fine, I never do something if I don’t have confidence in winning,” said Gu Ning to comfort her.
“Fine, I’ll be there too,” said Zhang Zikai. She was involved as well, so she couldn’t ignore it.
“Sure,” said Gu Ning and hung up.
“Boss, what happened?”
Once Gu Ning hung up, Chu Peihan asked. Although Gu Ning looked the same as usual, something unusual must have happened.
Gu Ning had no intention to keep it a secret from them, so she said, “Do you still remember the fight we had at the parking lot of the food street that night? The man named Mingzhe challenged me to have a car race tonight. Do you want to go with me?”
Gu Ning knew it was impossible for them not to be there, but she still asked for their opinions.
“Why not! I’ll see him become an abject failure!” said Chu Peihan.
“I’m surprised that the man dares to cause you trouble again. Boss, are you sure it’s alright to have a car race at night?” Mu Ke asked with concern. Although he believed in Gu Ning, he was still worried.
“I will be fine,” said Gu Ning.
Since Gu Ning said that, they were relieved.
After that, they went to dine together. It was just a little past five, but they needed to go the twisting mountain road at Fushan later, so they dined earlier today.
It took at least an hour to get to the twisting mountain road at Fushan from the southern district. After dinner, it was 6 pm. However, Gu Ning didn’t go to the appointed place right away, instead she went back to Century City because she needed to change her car.
Gu Ning was driving the Hummer she bought in City Ge last time, which was suitable for mountain roads, but not for a race. She had to drive her Lamborghini, because it was a sports car.
Even though the Lamborghini was in her telepathic eye s.p.a.ce right now, she couldn’t take it out in front of her friends. Instead, she had to go back to Century City to pretend that the car was in the garage.
When they were back in Century City, Gu Ning stopped her car and told her friends to wait for a while. She would go to Gao Yi’s garage to get another car.
She did that to avoid them, because if she told them that the car was in her garage, they would come and watch.
Gu Ning told them to wait, so they didn’t follow her. She and Gao Yi had the keys to the two garages for the convenience of using other cars in both garages.
The second Gu Ning opened the door a small gap, she directly reached her hand inside and put the car out. Afterwards, she opened the door of the garage wide and drove the car out.
After that, she told her friends to get in before she closed the door of the garage and set off on the road.
