"Old sir, are you alright?"
Not sensing any danger, Liu Bingxue crouched down and asked the old man lying on the ground with concern.
The old man sat on the ground, clutching his right knee, seemingly in great pain. He chided, "Young lady, how do you drive? You almost ran me over!"
"I'm so sorry, we were too careless. We'll take you to the hospital right away, and we'll cover all medical expenses," Liu Bingxue said hastily.
Then, Liu Bingxue sternly said to Chu Lingtian, who was standing nearby, "What are you still staring at? Hurry up and help the old man into the car."
At this moment, Liu Bingxue's dislike for Chu Lingtian intensified. She felt it was his sudden reckless driving and wild steering that had frightened the old man by the roadside and caused this trouble.
"You guys go to the car first. I'll deal with something and be right there."
Chu Lingtian pointed forward. From the large truck that had just collided with them, two burly middle-aged men emerged, each carrying a thick steel pipe and charging over aggressively.
"Young lady, I, we should get into your car first. I'm scared," the old man said in a panicked tone, seeing the situation.
Liu Bingxue frowned, thought for a moment, and then said to Chu Lingtian, "I'll help the old man into the car first, then I'll come back to help you."
Chu Lingtian remained silent. He was secretly searching for the source of the extremely dangerous killing intent that he had instinctively sensed.
Seeing Chu Lingtian's silence, Liu Bingxue grew even more annoyed. She thought, "You're the one who caused this trouble, and I'm trying to help you, but you're ignoring me?"
As Liu Bingxue helped the old man towards the car, the two middle-aged men holding steel pipes, with fierce expressions, approached Chu Lingtian.
"Kid, how the hell do you drive!" one of the middle-aged men snarled, pointing the steel pipe at Chu Lingtian's nose.
The other middle-aged man said coldly, "If we hadn't dodged quickly, we would have been crashed and killed just now."
Chu Lingtian's brow furrowed, as he couldn't sense any killing intent from these two men.
"Ah..."
Suddenly, a scream came from the direction of the BMW.
Chu Lingtian instantly understood what was happening and turned to rush over.
However, the two burly middle-aged men holding steel pipes immediately blocked his path.
"Kid, trying to run?"
"You won't leave today until this is resolved!"
The two burly middle-aged men shouted menacingly, exuding an aura that they would not let Chu Lingtian leave, even at the cost of their lives.
A cold smile appeared on Chu Lingtian's lips. He said, "Your act with the old man was quite good."
The expressions of the two burly middle-aged men changed simultaneously, and they quickly exchanged glances.
"What act? We don't know what you're talking about!"
"Yeah, don't think you can get away by talking nonsense!"
Recovering from their surprise, the two middle-aged men showed confusion and disdain towards Chu Lingtian's words.
*Swish!*
Chu Lingtian's eyes turned cold, and he grabbed the wrist of one of the burly men holding the steel pipe with his right hand.
The other burly man, seeing this, immediately swung his steel pipe towards Chu Lingtian's head.
*Clang!*
Chu Lingtian waved his right hand. The steel pipe in the hand of the man whose wrist he held was raised high, blocking the fatal blow.
The other burly man, who had swung the steel pipe at Chu Lingtian's head, felt a tearing pain in his palm as the steel pipe was knocked flying.
At this moment, the burly man whose wrist Chu Lingtian was holding quickly kicked towards Chu Lingtian's crotch.
Chu Lingtian dodged the kick by shifting sideways, and his left hand swiftly grabbed the burly man by the neck.
*Crack!*
The sound of a broken larynx echoed.
The burly man, whose wrist Chu Lingtian had grabbed first, fell to the ground, clutching his neck. He felt he couldn't breathe, blood spurted from his nose and mouth, and his body convulsed in extreme pain.
The remaining burly man was shocked and pale. He never expected Chu Lingtian to be so quick and precise, especially his unflinching demeanor after killing someone, which was truly terrifying.
After a moment of stunned silence, the surviving burly man pulled out a sharp folding fruit knife from his person, opened it, and lunged towards Chu Lingtian's heart.
*Bang!*
Chu Lingtian was faster. He kicked the remaining burly man in the chest and caught the falling fruit knife with his right hand.
The remaining burly man struggled a few times on the ground, his eyes wide open, and died with unfulfilled resentment.
In less than two minutes, both burly middle-aged men were dead at Chu Lingtian's hands.
At this moment, Chu Lingtian looked ahead and saw that Liu Bingxue's red BMW 7 Series sedan had already driven some distance away.
Holding the fruit knife, he jumped into the large truck left behind by the two deceased burly middle-aged men, started it, and chased after the BMW.
Meanwhile, Liu Bingxue, her hands and feet bound by tape and struggling inside her BMW, was terrified and her face had lost all color.
She could never have imagined that after she helped the frail old man to the car, he would suddenly become ferocious and incredibly strong, subduing her and tying her up before throwing her into the back seat.
"Who are you? Why are you kidnapping me?" Liu Bingxue asked in a frightened voice, looking at the old man driving the car at high speed.
The old man had lost his former weak and honest demeanor. His expression turned cold, his eyes fierce, and he said coldly, "President Liu, someone has paid a large sum of money for us to abduct you. You'll know what happens next when we reach our destination."
"Who wants to kidnap me? Are you in league with the mysterious person who appeared in my company's underground parking lot?" Liu Bingxue asked tentatively, startled.
"I cannot tell you that. It would be breaking the rules of the underworld," the old man flatly refused to answer.
*Bang!*
A loud explosion.
The right rear tire of Liu Bingxue's BMW burst.
The car began to swerve violently. The old man's face changed drastically as he frantically gripped the steering wheel, trying his best to stabilize the vehicle.
Chu Lingtian, who had shot out the BMW's tire with his fruit knife, used the opportunity to drive the large truck to the forefront and block the road horizontally.
Seeing that the BMW was about to collide with the truck, the old man's instinct for self-preservation forced him to slam on the brakes.
As soon as the BMW stopped, the old man opened the driver's door and rushed out, intending to grab Liu Bingxue in the back seat.
The moment the old man pulled open the rear door and reached for Liu Bingxue, Chu Lingtian arrived at lightning speed.
