Chapter 229: Chapter 229: High-Speed Killing
However, Chen Man Ni insisted, refusing to give in.
"No, Qin Tuo! How can you go to Jin City without me?"
Beside them, Chen Wenxiong chuckled and tried to reason with her.
"Manni, don’t cause trouble for Mr. Qin!"
But Chen Man Ni retorted irritably,
"Hmph! If I don’t go with him, who knows if some little vixen will snatch him away!"
Hearing this, Qin Tuo could only give a helpless, wry smile and nod.
"Alright then, Manni. I’ll take you with me."
Chen Man Ni’s face instantly lit up with a smile, and she looped her arm through Qin Tuo’s.
Early the next morning, Qin Tuo came to pick up Chen Man Ni.
Then, Qin Tuo made a call and summoned Long Wu.
This trip to Jin City wasn’t meant to be high-profile, so Long Wu drove an ordinary black Mercedes business sedan.
After the three of them got into the car, they headed straight for Jin City.
Jin City was over two hundred kilometers from Ming City, a drive of just a few hours.
Sitting in the car, Chen Man Ni was clearly in high spirits.
"Qin Tuo, did you know? It’s been several years since I last went to Jin City. I really miss my aunt!"
Qin Tuo said with considerable interest,
"Oh? So you have relatives in Jin City?"
Chen Man Ni smiled and nodded.
"Yes. My mother passed away when I was very young, and my father was always busy with his business, so he had no time to play with me. I often ran off to Jin City to stay at my aunt’s house."
Only then did Qin Tuo understand that Chen Man Ni had been cared for by her aunt throughout her childhood, and the bond between them was very deep.
A nostalgic look appeared in Chen Man Ni’s eyes as she murmured,
"Sigh... It’s been so long. I wonder if my cousins have gotten married yet."
Qin Tuo could see that Chen Man Ni was a person who valued family deeply. He patted her shoulder comfortingly.
"Manni, your aunt is probably in good health. Kind people live long lives, after all. Besides, you’ll be able to see her soon."
Chen Man Ni obediently snuggled into Qin Tuo’s embrace and nodded.
She was also looking forward to seeing her aunt’s family soon and catching up properly.

「Provincial City, First Hospital.」
This was the best hospital in the Provincial City. In a top-tier private room, Jiang Liang was painstakingly practicing how to eat with his left hand.
The bones in his right arm had been completely shattered. After consultations with numerous specialists, the unanimous conclusion was that it was impossible to repair.
With no other options, Jiang Liang had no choice but to learn how to do more things with his left hand.
He craned his neck with great difficulty, slowly scooping rice into his mouth with his left hand...
But just as the spoon was about to reach his lips, his hand suddenly trembled, and all the rice fell to the floor.
"Bastard!"
Jiang Liang flew into a rage, furiously smashing the spoon onto the ground.
Still not satisfied, he began violently throwing other nearby objects, letting out terrifying roars.
"Bastards! You’re all a bunch of bastards! Get the hell out! Qin Tuo, I want you dead! I’ll tear you to pieces, flay you alive, and drink your blood..."
Jiang Liang cursed endlessly, his eyes bloodshot with rage!
Just then, a beautifully dressed woman walked in from outside the room.
Seeing Jiang Liang in this state, her face immediately filled with heartache.
"Son, please don’t be angry anymore. It hurts Mom to see you like this!"
The woman sat beside Jiang Liang, patting his shoulder and comforting him ceaselessly.
This person was Jiang Liang’s mother, Liao Zhiyun.
Looking at her son’s pitiful state, Liao Zhiyun’s heart felt as if it were bleeding.
Just then, Jiang Mingfeng also walked in.
Seeing the scene, he sat down silently to the side and began to smoke glumly.
Under Liao Zhiyun’s gentle consolation, Jiang Liang’s emotions gradually calmed, and he fell into a deep sleep.
Only then did Liao Zhiyun stand up and furiously berate Jiang Mingfeng.
"You useless piece of trash, Jiang! It’s been so many days, and you still haven’t found the culprit who hurt our son! What good are you?!"
At that moment, Jiang Mingfeng, the imposing Patriarch of the Jiang Family, had an ashen face and dared not utter a single word in rebuttal.
Liao Zhiyun grew angrier as she scolded him, her finger nearly jabbing him in the nose.
But Jiang Mingfeng still didn’t dare make a peep.
This was because the Jiang Family owed its current status to the support of the Liao Family.
Liao Zhiyun’s maiden family in the Provincial City was a prestigious one, with martial arts schools spread throughout the entire city.
The old Patriarch of the Liao Family, Liao Zhiyun’s father, was a Grandmaster-level Martial Artist with countless students and disciples!
And it was only by marrying into the prestigious Liao Family that the Jiang Family had gradually developed to its current position.
Although Jiang Mingfeng appeared mighty and imposing in public, within their social circle, he was often mocked for being henpecked.
Seeing her husband silently take the scolding, Liao Zhiyun couldn’t contain her anger and continued,
"Jiang Mingfeng, if you’re not capable of handling this, I’ll have my younger brother Ah Cheng come and take care of it!"
Hearing this, Jiang Mingfeng’s eyelid couldn’t help but twitch violently.
He knew, of course, just how formidable his wife Liao Zhiyun’s younger brother was.
Just then, Jiang Mingfeng’s phone suddenly rang.
As soon as he answered, he heard a subordinate report that Qin Tuo had just gotten on the expressway to Jin City!
Jiang Mingfeng’s eyes lit up instantly. He had been looking for a way to vent his pent-up anger!
So, Jiang Mingfeng gritted his teeth and ordered,
"Good. Quickly arrange for some men to run that Qin Tuo off the road and kill him. Then bring his body back to me, understand?"
"Yes, Patriarch!"
After hanging up, Jiang Mingfeng broke into a triumphant smile.
"Don’t worry, darling. The bastard who hurt our son won’t be alive for much longer!"
Hearing this, Liao Zhiyun’s anger finally began to subside.
...
「Mingjin Expressway.」
Long Wu was currently focused on driving.
They were less than eighty kilometers from Jin City. The traffic ahead was gradually getting heavier, and Long Wu raised his guard.
But just then, a van suddenly accelerated from behind to overtake them!
As it drew parallel, the other driver jerked the steering wheel, ramming heavily into Qin Tuo’s car.
"Celestial King, watch out!"
Long Wu shouted instinctively, wrenching the steering wheel.
But he still couldn’t avoid the hit.
The black Mercedes was forced off the road by the van, pinned against the green median strip.
"Damn it!"
Qin Tuo cursed under his breath, immediately shielding Chen Man Ni tightly.
Fortunately, no one was seriously hurt. Chen Man Ni had only suffered a minor scrape.
Just then, Qin Tuo’s eyes suddenly narrowed!
The van doors flew open, revealing several cold-faced assassins aiming handguns at them.
