Chapter 26: The Explosion Scene

  Two days later, Tang Shuai appeared at the train station in Bianhai City, Province B. The two-day journey had left him somewhat fatigued, and by the time the train arrived, it was already 10 o'clock in the evening. Moreover, the train station was still some distance from the city center. Taking a taxi to the city center and then finding an inn would be quite costly for Tang Shuai. After all, after giving his bank card to Li Juan, he had only taken one yuan from Tang Tian, adding it to his own money, leaving him with just tens of yuan on hand. Fortunately, Meng Meng hadn't added any burden to him yet; otherwise, he would have been penniless by now.

  Speaking of Murmur, Commander Tang hasn't seen her for the past two days either. He said she was in Province B, but now that Commander Tang is back, he still can't see her. Forget it, anyway this girl won't have anything going on.

  Tang Shuai is now somewhat regretful, if he had known earlier, he wouldn't have pretended to be noble. He should have asked Tang Tian for a few million and kept several girls as mistresses. Isn't this the life that losers dream of? At that time, he didn't know how his brain short-circuited and why he only asked for one dollar.

  Just then, Tang Shuai suddenly saw a beautiful woman with long hair, big eyes and smooth skin. She was about 165 cm tall, her figure was okay, but her chest seemed a bit small. Generally speaking, she was a beauty, should be on the same level as Li Jingjing.

  At this time, the girl was holding a sign with three words on it: Tang Young Master. It was clear that she had come to pick someone up. Next to her was a red Infiniti, which seemed to be from a wealthy family.

  "Hello," Tang Shuai walked over.

  "Are you Young Master Tang?" The beauty sized up Tang Shuai for a moment.

  "Yes." Although he was a bit guilty, Tang Shuai hadn't lied either; his surname really was Tang.

  "Get on the bus."

  Tang Shuai didn't expect it to be so easy, not even confirming her identity? This girl is too careless, fortunately Tang Shuai just wanted to hitch a ride, if she had other intentions, then she would be in danger.

  "Where are you going?" Tang Shuai asked. First figure out where this girl is going before talking.

  "Mr. Tang, let me introduce myself first. I am Miss's assistant, my name is Wenya. Miss is not feeling well, so she can't come to pick you up in person. It's getting late today, let's go to the city to rest first and return to Tiannan City tomorrow."

  "Oh, okay, okay." Tang Shuai hastily nodded in agreement. This was exactly what he had hoped for. It seemed that tonight's luck wasn't bad after all - not only did he run into a beautiful woman, but he also saved on transportation and accommodation costs. Although it was somewhat unfair to the real Young Master Tang, there was no other choice; desperate times called for desperate measures, after all.

  "Wenya, that's a great name, how old are you?" On the road, Wenya was driving and wasn't as talkative as he had imagined. Tang Shuai felt bored, so he found something to talk about with her.

  Twenty.

  "Didn't go to school?"

  "In the same way as Miss, at Tiān Nán University, my job is to take care of her anytime and anywhere. I also want to thank Miss for giving me this opportunity, so that I can complete my studies." said Wen Jing.

  Tang Shuai didn't ask any more questions, because Wen Jing's "young lady" was someone she had no idea who it was. Asking too many questions would lead to trouble later on, and if she were to be thrown out of the car here, where there was no one around, she wouldn't even be able to hail a taxi.

  Tang Shuai didn't speak, and the girl didn't either. She just focused on driving. Tang Shuai had reclined his seat and closed his eyes to rest, and when they arrived, the girl would wake him up. After two days and one night of taking the train, he was really tired.

  Suddenly, Tang Shuai abruptly opened his eyes wide.

  "Stop the car, stop the car."

  "What's wrong?" Wen Ya asked strangely, why did he suddenly want to stop the car? Was it an emergency?

  "I told you to stop the car, damn it!" Tang Shuai was anxious and stretched out his foot to step on the brake forcefully.

  After a screeching halt, the car finally came to a stop. Tang Shuai hastily jumped out of the car, while Wen Ya was still in a daze and had no idea what this guy was up to. Just then, the door to the driver's cabin swung open, and before she knew it, Wen Ya felt herself being lifted off the ground. When she came to her senses, she found herself slung over the man's shoulder, running at breakneck speed.

  "What are you doing? What do you want to do to me? Pervert, save me!" Wenjing was frightened. The person she was supposed to pick up today was named Tang Zhan, her mistress's fiancé. Normally, she had heard that this Tang Zhan was a lecher, and now in this deserted place, being carried on his shoulder, she didn't know what he would do to her.

  "Tang young master, you can't do this! You're Miss's fiancé, you can't do this! Let me go, save me... who will come and save me..."

  "Shut up for me, I'm saving you right now." Tang Shuai said angrily, this woman was too noisy.

  A loud "boom" shook the air, and flames illuminated the dark night.

  Wen Jing stopped shouting and eventually didn't shout anymore. She lay on Tang Shuai's back, staring blankly at the car from earlier, which was now engulfed in flames.

  "The car exploded." It took him a full minute to utter a single sentence.

  Tang Shuai put down Wen Jing at this time, her legs had long been frightened soft, and she sat paralyzed on the ground.

  "What the hell are you guys doing? Can't a man just hitch a ride in peace? Must you be so dramatic? And what's with the bomb, do you think this is a movie set?" Tang Shuai's heart was racing like crazy, after all, it was his first time encountering such a situation. It was also because he had calmed down and wanted to take a rest that he heard the ticking sound coming from the bomb under the chassis. Although Tang Shuai thought it was unlikely, not being in a movie and all, his instincts told him to get out of there fast. As it turned out, his instincts were right, otherwise, he and Wen Jing would have been blown to smithereens by now.

  Although I have a contractual relationship with Momo, this body is very strong and can withstand even being blown away without necessarily being injured. However, whether or not it can emerge unscathed from an explosion is an unknown quantity, and that's something that Tang Shuai doesn't dare to try either.

  "Who are you, after all?" Wenjing asked Tang Shuai, coming back to her senses. As far as she knew, Tang Zhan was not capable of being so heroic. That guy was just a second-generation rich kid who only knew how to eat, drink, and gamble.

  "Hello, let's get to know each other formally. My name is Tang Shuai, and I'm the first 'shuai' in the Tang family. Actually, I just wanted to hitch a ride with you to the city and then trick you into letting me stay overnight. But you guys are too ruthless, actually using a bomb to welcome me." Tang Shuai said.

  Tang Shuai's answer made Wen Jing cry and laugh at the same time, it turned out to be a scammer. It was quite helpless. But it was this guy who ended up saving her life. If she had received the real Tang Zhan tonight, I'm afraid both of them would have gone to report to the King of Hell by now.

  And this time's explosion was obviously premeditated, no way, I have to report it immediately.
