"Someone is following me!"

Lin Xiao was amused by her words. "Following you? Aren't there enough people chasing you already? They could form a line from Shengjing all the way abroad!"

Shao Mei'er pouted. "You're awful, Stinky Dad! I'm not talking about that kind of chasing. I mean I'm literally being pursued!"

Lin Xiao sobered. "What do you mean?"

"I'm on the highway right now. A car has been tailing me ever since I left Jinling City. I didn't notice at first, but after I caught a glimpse of it in my rearview mirror, I ran a few checks. Sure enough, they're tracking me!"

"Where are you now?" Lin Xiao asked quickly.

"I'm about to get off the highway!"

"Alright, I've got it. I'll wait for you at the highway exit!"

Hearing Lin Xiao's words, Shao Mei'er's frantic heart was instantly filled with a profound sense of security. Frankly, as the daughter of the wealthiest family in Jinhai City, Shao Mei'er was much braver than the average girl. But that didn't mean she could remain calm and composed when faced with danger. At the end of the day, she was still just a girl. No matter how courageous, she was still a girl.

"Thank you, Stinky Dad. I'm going to speed up now. I should arrive in Jinhai City in about twenty minutes!"

Lin Xiao acknowledged, and they hung up.

He returned to Su Qingning and Chu Xiangxue.

"Honey, I need to go out for a bit," Lin Xiao said seriously. "You stay here with Xiangxue. Don't go anywhere until I get back."

"What happened?" Su Qingning asked anxiously. She was incredibly sharp and knew that Lin Xiao wouldn't leave so suddenly unless something was wrong.

"Shao Mei'er is being followed on her way to Jinhai City. I'm going to pick her up," Lin Xiao said candidly, not wanting to hide anything from Su Qingning.

"Being followed?" Chu Xiangxue frowned slightly.

Lin Xiao nodded.

"Who would be so daring as to tail Shao Mei'er?" Chu Xiangxue asked, puzzled.

"I don't know. I'm going to go get her. You two stay put."

Chu Xiangxue nodded, but Su Qingning's eyes were filled with worry as she looked at Lin Xiao.

"Be careful!"

Lin Xiao gave her a reassuring look. "Don't worry. I'll pick her up and come right back. Just wait for me, okay?"

A warmth spread through Su Qingning's heart, and she nodded obediently.

Lin Xiao departed swiftly.

As he drove toward the highway exit, Lin Xiao mulled over Shao Mei'er's situation. Although I still don't know who's following her, one thing is certain: they're no ordinary people. After all, Shao Mei'er comes from an extremely impressive background. The average person wouldn't dare to tail her.

He arrived smoothly at the highway exit. Before the car had even come to a full stop, Shao Mei'er called again.

"Stinky Dad, I'm almost there! Have you arrived?"

"I'm already here," Lin Xiao replied.

Warmth filled Shao Mei'er's heart. "Thank you, Stinky Dad."

"Let's skip the thanks. Are they still following you?"

"Yes, and they're even closer now."

"Good. Once you're off the highway, drive straight to Chu Xiangxue's villa."

These words left Shao Mei'er somewhat confused. "Stinky Dad, aren't you supposed to pick me up at the exit?"

"I am, but I want to find out who has the audacity to follow you!"

"What are you planning to do, Stinky Dad?" Shao Mei'er asked curiously.

"Don't worry about that. Just drive to Chu Xiangxue's villa. I'll contact you after I've dealt with this."

"Alright then. Be careful, Stinky Dad!"

"Got it!"

With that, they hung up.

A short while later, Lin Xiao saw Shao Mei'er's car exit the highway. She also spotted his car parked by the side of the road. As she drove past his car, Shao Mei'er saw him inside. She shot him a flirtatious smile and blew a kiss through the air.

This vixen... Lin Xiao thought, somewhat speechless. Just then, he spotted a van exiting the highway in his rearview mirror. It began to leisurely follow Shao Mei'er's car.

Just as the van was about to pass him, Lin Xiao wrenched the steering wheel, slamming his car into its front end.

CRUNCH!

He expected the collision to stop them, but the van didn't even slow down. Instead, it accelerated after Shao Mei'er.

Lin Xiao sneered and floored the accelerator. His car shot forward, crashing violently into the van again.

CRASH!

The fierce impact wrecked the van and sent it flipping onto its side on the road. Had this been on the highway, its occupants would have been killed instantly.

In contrast, the Cullinan came to a steady stop. Luxury cars really are built solid.

Soon, four thuggish-looking, burly men crawled out of the vehicle. Lin Xiao got out of his car at an unhurried pace.

When the four burly men saw Lin Xiao, they were all stunned. They clearly hadn't expected a multi-million dollar car to be driven by someone who looked like a beggar.

"You damn beggar, what the hell is wrong with your driving?!" one of the burly men bellowed, his eyes glaring at Lin Xiao like daggers.

Lin Xiao feigned a terrified expression. "Sirs, I'm so sorry! It's all my fault. I'm willing to pay for the damages!"

Hearing the offer of money, the eyes of all four men lit up.

"One hundred thousand!" the same man declared arrogantly.

"Boss, one hundred thousand is a bit steep," Lin Xiao said. "How about this? We can get in my car and have a nice chat about it."

"Fuck it, fine! Let's go!" the same burly man snapped.

He must be their leader, Lin Xiao concluded.

He led the four men into the Cullinan. The four acted like kids in a candy store, looking everywhere and touching everything.

"Who sent you?" Lin Xiao suddenly asked.

The four men froze, exchanging suspicious glances.

"Kid, what do you mean?" their leader asked in a cold voice.

Lin Xiao smiled. "You followed Shao Mei'er all the way from Jinling City to Jinhai City. Don't tell me you were just overcome with lust."

A jolt of shock went through the four men. Their gazes on Lin Xiao grew sharper and more sinister.

"Kid, I still don't know what the hell you're talking about. Hurry up and pay, or don't blame us for what happens next!"

"What happens next?" Lin Xiao asked, a playful look in his eyes. "What exactly do you plan to do?"

"Hah! I'll tell you straight, we're all desperados. If you're looking to die, we don't mind spilling a little more blood. We've done it plenty of times before!"

"Is that so? What a coincidence. I've killed quite a few people myself."

As soon as he said that, the four thuggish men froze. But a second later, thunderous laughter erupted from inside the car.
