Zeng Rou Returns 10
“No, you’re pregnant. Be careful and don’t get hurt. I drive pretty fast too. If you believe me, then sit in the front while I drive.”
“Oh right, do you have money on you?”
“Yeah.”
“Can you lend me some.”
“You can take it yourself,” Zeng Rou said as she passed over her Chanel bag.
Huo Mian opened the purse up and took 5000 yuan in cash out and walked over to the old grandma.
“Grandma, since I found a friend, I’ll have to go now. Thank you for helping me.”
“You’re welcome. As long as you can get home safe.”
“Grandma, take this money. Your life isn’t easy. You should buy something you want to eat.”
“Oh my, I can’t accept that. That’s too much money. I don’t need that much. You can just give me 100 yuan and it’ll take me a while until I use it up.”
The old grandma was afraid to take so much money and was only willing to accept 100 yuan.
“Take it, grandma. I’ll have someone send you medicine later. You have to promise not to mention me or those bad guys will hurt you.”
“Okay.” The old grandma nodded.
Finally, the old grandma accepted 3000 yuan after Huo Mian pushed it to her.
Huo Mian, together with Zeng Rou and her two female friends, got in the white Toyota SUV.
After driving for a while, they saw the police stopping cars by the highway entrance.
“There’s police in the front right?” Zeng Rou looked at Huo Mian and asked.
“Yeah, I see them.”
“What should we do? We need to get off the car and cooperate with them.”
“No, we can’t.”
From what Huo Mian heard from the old grandma, she knew that the local police here were corrupted and could not be trusted. They had close ties with the human traffickers.
Maybe the police were after her too.
If she got off the car now, she would be giving herself up.
“What should we do then?”
“Speed through it…” Huo Mian said.
“What?” Zeng Rou sounded surprised.
“Why don’t you stop at the side and I’ll drive.” Huo Mian had raced with Song Yishi’s younger sister before.
Huo Mian was smart, was great at controlling things, and was quick to react. She was confident that she could speed through.
It was simply passing the police. The police too were human so they wouldn’t want to die either. If she ran through, she would still have hopes of escaping, but if she got off the car, she would be captured for sure.
Having only four women in the car would mean they were basically powerless.
Whenever times like this happened, Huo Mian would wish Lu Yan was with her.
Lu Yan could fight them all off alone.
“No, I can’t let a pregnant woman risk her life like that. Let me try. Sit tight guys,” Zeng Rou said. Then she gritted her teeth and stomped on the gas pedal.
The car speeded towards the police.
“Stop at the side and cooperate with the police,” the police shouted with a speaker.
Zeng Rou had listened to Huo Mian so now she did not listen to anyone else.
She built up the courage and barged over the fences the police set up. Their SUV was a lot more powerful than normal passenger vehicles.
The police didn’t expect anyone to be so crazy. Before they were able to react, the car drove away.
“Why are you people still standing there? Go after them!”
“Go after them? It’s not safe though. It’s dark and the mountain roads are winding…” the police officer that was ordered to go after them was not willing.
“Go after them! Fourth Master Fang said that if the person he wants gets away, we’ll all be doomed,” the head police officer reprimanded.
His five subordinate police officers drove in two police cars and chased them down.
“They’re going to catch up soon. What should we do, Huo Mian?” Zeng Rou’s hands on the steering wheel were shaking. She was completely lost.
Huo Mian calmly looked at the rear mirror and could see the police cars getting closer.
