Chapter 165

Hearing his mother's words, Lu Chi didn't know what to do for a moment, whether to run to his mother's side or stand with Su Yun Jiao.

Lu Chi clearly understood that if he ran to his mother's side, he would be standing opposite Su Yun Jiao, and then he would be heading toward the brink of crime.

"Lu Chi! What are you standing there for? Hurry up and come over!"

Zheng Hongyu was already angry.

Seeing his mother angry, Lu Chi almost instinctively walked toward his mother.

Since childhood, he had never been able to defy Zheng Hongyu's wishes.

So Lu Chi could only walk toward Zheng Hongyu.

When he realized he couldn't do that, the entire underground parking garage had already been surrounded by Zheng Hongyu's people.

This time Zheng Hongyu had come with lethal intent; the people she summoned were all the Lu family's bodyguards.

Apparently she didn't intend to let them leave alive—not just Lu Jingqing, but also Su Yun Jiao.

"Mom! Do you know what you're doing? This is illegal!"

Lu Chi's face turned pale; he hadn't expected his mother to go this far.

Originally Zheng Hongyu planned to quietly deal with Lu Jingqing, but who knew this Lu Jingqing would be so ungrateful.

Since they couldn't stage it as a car accident, they might as well all die here.

Anyway, Zheng Hongyu didn't intend to let Su Yun Jiao live either.

After Su Yun Jiao is dead, he'll find a way to get the Su family's assets.

"Those who achieve great things don't fuss over details; Lu Jingqing is already dead—could anyone still call the police?"

Zheng Hongyu wanted Lu Jingqing and Su Yun Jiao to die silently, and even the Li secretary beside Lu Jingqing couldn't be left alive.

This time she hired so many people, all of whom were societal desperadoes.

Back then she relied on these people to resolve many troubles; although the fees were high, as long as they could take Lu Jingqing's life, the Lu family would survive.

"Attack!"

Zheng Hongyu immediately had her people start moving; those people showed no hesitation, rushing forward to strike Lu Jingqing dead—fortunately the Li secretary was no pushover, and in a few moves he had already pressed the two bodyguards who came up to the ground.

Seeing more and more people surge toward them.

Lu Jingqing merely shielded Su Yun Jiao behind him.

Like an immovable Mount Tai, Su Yun Jiao standing behind Lu Jingqing felt an unprecedented sense of safety.

"Brother Jingqing, I've already called the police; I believe nothing will happen—just wait for the police to arrive."

Lu Jingqing hadn't expected Su Yun Jiao to be so clever; she had already called the police before coming over.

He reached out and touched Su Yun Jiao's hair, saying, "Even if you didn't call the police, your brother Jingqing would still be fine."

Although Zheng Hongyu's people were desperadoes, how could they possibly compare to his men?

Choosing to have a firefight and kill him here was Zheng Hongyu's worst decision.

Seeing those few people already start to attack, Lu Jingqing remained completely calm.

Zheng Hongyu wondered how far Lu Jingqing could keep up the act.

This time she had directly hired twenty thugs/

And Lu Jingqing this time merely came alone, with only the Li secretary beside him; even adding the driver and Su Yun Jiao, that's only four people, so she didn't believe that relying on just a secretary, Lu Jingqing could survive today.

At that moment, Lu Jingqing seemed to have grown tired of playing; he merely snapped his fingers, and suddenly a number of bodyguards poured out from outside the garage, all wearing the Lu family insignia.

These were all originally employed by Lu Company, and many of their faces were very familiar to Zheng Hongyu.

When she saw these people, Zheng Hongyu's face changed instantly: "You! You how……"

These people had previously been dismissed due to Lu Company's poor management, but Zheng Hongyu hadn't expected them to so quickly attach themselves to Lu Jingqing's high branch and oppose her.

"Let's attack."

Lu Jingqing's simple sentence had those bodyguards already start attacking Zheng Hongyu's underlings.

Just moments ago, the situation had completely reversed.

Zheng Hongyu hadn't expected Lu Jingqing to have made preparations in advance, planting so many people around in ambush, waiting for her to strike before Lu Jingqing began to act.

Zheng Hongyu felt the terror of this man for the first time.

Facing the disadvantage of being outnumbered, Zheng Hongyu could barely hold on, and even his subordinates felt something was about to go wrong, so they abandoned Zheng Hongyu and ran toward the outside of the garage.

Lu Jingqing gave them no chance.

In a short while, the twenty thugs who had wanted to flee were all captured by Lu Jingqing's bodyguards.

Soon, the sound of police sirens came from outside the Lu residence.

Su Yun Jiao knew it must be because her call to the police worked; the police should have arrived at this time.

Lu Chi heard the police sirens and quickly realized they were doomed; he immediately said to his mother: "Mom, hurry up and apologize to Lu Jingqing, let this matter be over, otherwise when the police come, what will we do!"

Lu Chi originally did not agree with his mother's use of force against Lu Jingqing; winner takes all, loser is nothing—there's nothing to discuss.

But his mother thought otherwise.

"How could I have given birth to such an indecisive son?"

Zheng Hongyu could hardly believe that Lu Chi was her own child.

Could it be that her son cannot see that their current situation is all Lu Jingqing's fault?

And yet he is still speaking up for Lu Jingqing here.

Zheng Hongyu shoved Lu Chi aside and then drew the pistol from her waist.

When he saw the pistol, Lu Jingqing frowned, shielded Su Yun Jiao behind him, and coldly said: "Don't move."

Su Yun Jiao had not misseen; Zheng Hongyu's hand indeed held a pistol.

However, it looked like an old model, probably from ten or twenty years ago, likely something Zheng Hongyu had since her time in the countryside.

Zheng Hongyu said: "Since they lack the guts, I'll kill you myself!"

Although the police were about to arrive, Zheng Hongyu believed that with so many people under her command, it would be easy to clean up the bloodstains at the scene.

As for Lu Jingqing's people, after the dragons were leaderless, they naturally knew whom to be loyal to.

"Is that so?"

Lu Jingqing seemed to not take Zheng Hongyu's threat seriously at all.

It's just a pistol, and he still didn't take it seriously.

"Brother Jingqing..."

Su Yun Jiao was a little nervous.

No matter how you say it, it's still a pistol.

A slight mistake could cost a life.
