As Qiao Zhan had predicted, right as his car was a few hundred meters away from their starting point, cars slowly came out from the alleyways and began tailing them.

As a matter of fact, more and more cars were tailing them. There were at least a dozen cars.

If each car had four people in it, that meant Li Xiaolong had at least fifty people tailing them.

Qiao Zhan, on the other hand, only had seven to eight men with him. Even if Qiao Zhan's men were more skilled in battle, the sheer number of their opponents would be a handful to deal with.

Moreover, if a fight were to break out, the young women would need protection.

Things would take a turn for the worse if one of them were captured by Li Xiaolong's men.

“Should we call the cops? This won't work,” Ning Ran urged.

Lu Jingyuan seemed unfazed as she said calmly, “It's fine. We'll stop at a more spacious place up ahead. I'll have a brief talk with them.”

Ning Ran inhaled sharply at that. They look like local gangsters, and you're not one of the locals. How are you going to discuss anything with them?

“That won't work. These people aren't reasonable people. There isn't anything for us to discuss with them about. Ms. Lu, you really mustn't get down from the car. Let's call the cops and have them deal with this instead,” Ning Ran suggested.

“We just came out from the station. These people are only tailing us; they aren't doing anything. If we call the cops now, we'll have no evidence of them doing anything to us. Besides, they're prowling near the station. Even if we go back to the station now, we'll still encounter them when we come back out. If that's the case, we might as well talk to them instead. Perhaps we can change their minds.”

Ning Ran could not believe that Lu Jingyuan was actually thinking of reasoning with gangsters. Moreover, she looked calm and confident.

Since she had said that, Ning Ran could not possibly forcibly stop her.

Lu Jingyuan did not seem like a rash person after all. Ning Ran guessed she had to have a reason to make a decision like that.

“Let's stop at the spot up ahead, then,” Ning Ran told Qiao Zhan.

“Don't worry, Lu Jingyuan. I'll protect both you and Ms. Ning,” Qiao Zhan promised.

“It's all right. We live in a lawful society. Grouping up doesn't mean that they can do anything they want to. Besides, it isn't my first day here in Livingsfill. It's really fine.”

Ning Ran felt that she should trust the confident Lu Jingyuan.

Maybe the people in the cars behind us are just trying to frighten us.

Once they arrived at a relatively remote district, Qiao Zhan stopped the car, and the cars behind them immediately surrounded Qiao Zhan's car.

Then, the people in the car came out.

The one leading them all was none other than Li Xiaolong. He hit Qiao Zhan's car and shouted, “Get the hell out of there right now!”

“Stay here. I'll go down,” Lu Jingyuan said.

“That doesn't sound safe. Let Qiao Zhan go with you. There are too many of them,” Ning Ran said worriedly.

“She's right. Ms. Lu. Let me accompany you.”
