Dragon King Palace: Urban Affluent Son-in-Law
Chapter 37 - 37 He's Doomed to Die Tonight!
This dinner lasted until after eight o'clock in the evening. Both Heizi and Bai Zhiqing drank quite a lot. Initially, Heizi could have drunk more, but Feng Na kept giving him signals with her eyes and secretly kicked him under the table. Heizi got the hint and stopped drinking.
After settling the bill, Heizi, a bit tipsy, bid farewell to Jiang Feng and the others. Then he blatantly hugged Feng Na as they left. As for when they returned to the security room and what time they finished their antics, that was their business.
"Jiang Feng, Sister Zhiqing is drunk. Please take her home," Nangong Qingcheng said helplessly to Jiang Feng as she looked at Bai Zhiqing, who was dizzy after standing up, with dazed eyes and a light and wobbly body.
Despite her reluctance, she had no choice given the situation. Both publicly and privately, she had to ensure that Jiang Feng safely escorted Bai Zhiqing home to feel at ease.
"Don't worry." Jiang Feng had already planned to take Bai Zhiqing home, and now he had one more reason to do so.
Because he was now 100% certain that the three cars just now were tailing them, but whether their target was him or Bai Zhiqing was still unclear. He simply didn't mention it to avoid worrying the women just now.
Nangong Qingcheng wanted to remind Jiang Feng to return home early but held back since the unfamiliar Chu Feifei was still present.
"You two should head back early too. The sky's getting overcast, and it might rain soon," Jiang Feng said after glancing at the sky.
"Uncle, can I add you on WeChat?" Chu Feifei asked eagerly, standing on tiptoe and looking at Jiang Feng.
Jiang Feng had no choice but to give her his WeChat ID. Only after she successfully added him did Chu Feifei happily walk away holding her phone.
To her, as long as she had Jiang Feng's contact information, she wasn't afraid of him disappearing again.
"Go back," Jiang Feng said again to Nangong Qingcheng.
"Hmph!" Unexpectedly, Nangong Qingcheng snorted coldly, turned, and left without looking back.
Jiang Feng was slightly taken aback. Why did her mood change so quickly? Women are truly unpredictable...
Shaking his head, Jiang Feng said nothing more. Supporting the unsteady Bai Zhiqing, he walked toward the Audi.
Bai Zhiqing was wobbling as she walked, her charming face turning even redder under the influence of alcohol, radiantly beautiful and seemingly emitting warmth.
Many people in the food stall were sneaking glances their way. Seeing Jiang Feng half-hugging Bai Zhiqing as they left, they started whispering and gossiping among themselves.
To them, it seemed Jiang Feng was destined to have an enjoyable night. Bai Zhiqing looked so ripe that calling the evening priceless wouldn't suffice to describe its allure.
"Hmph, that Jiang guy is lucky indeed. That girl is a real catch. Brother Hu, why don't we take him out, then take the girl out for some fun? Those long legs would look great on our shoulders..."
At another corner of the street, the buzzed driver was envious and resentful, staring fixedly at Bai Zhiqing's slender waist and long legs in the distance.
"Don't cause trouble," Brother Hu reprimandingly said.
As Jiang Feng expected, the moment they realized they had been discovered, they drove away immediately. Also, since Chu Feifei was present, they dared not make any rash moves, waiting for an opportunity like now.
"Follow him once he drives off."
After placing the terribly drunk Bai Zhiqing into the front passenger seat, Jiang Feng glanced in the direction where Brother Hu and his men were. Expressionless, he got into the driver's seat, started the Audi, and drove off.
"Huh? It seems that kid noticed us after all. He's really cautious!" the buzzed driver exclaimed in surprise.
Brother Hu frowned slightly, "Never mind, follow him. He's destined to die tonight anyway!"
...
Jiang Feng asked for Bai Zhiqing's address and proceeded to take her home in an orderly manner.
In the car, Bai Zhiqing became a bit more sober, leaning weakly against the seat with flushed cheeks, smiling at Jiang Feng, "Xiao Feng, thank you for today..."
"You've already thanked me," Jiang Feng responded calmly.
Bai Zhiqing still wasn't aware of the current danger. As the saying goes, wine doesn't intoxicate people; people intoxicate themselves. She accidentally drank too much, which indicated that her mood for drinking tonight was different from at noon. She was willing to let herself go.
"Take a rest. We'll be there soon." Jiang Feng said coolly, glancing through the rearview mirror at the black sedan and two stretch vans trailing them.
"Mm..."
Bai Zhiqing indeed had a headache that felt like splitting, her elegant neck tilted as she sighed and dozed off.
...
Bai Zhiqing's home was located in a place called Lijing District, a moderately upscale apartment in the densely populated Binhai area.
Due to the changing weather, there weren't many people in the district. Jiang Feng parked the car downstairs and then helped Bai Zhiqing out of the car.
Perhaps due to the bumpy ride, Bai Zhiqing felt a bit dizzy, and the moment she got out of the car, she wanted to vomit. Jiang Feng quickly supported her to a nearby flowerbed, where Bai Zhiqing immediately bent over and started throwing up everything she had eaten that night.
Jiang Feng helplessly patted her back, wondering why she insisted on drinking so much when she clearly couldn't handle it.
After vomiting for a while, Bai Zhiqing felt somewhat better, but her clothes were drenched in fragrant sweat. Her enchanting collarbones conveyed a charm to Jiang Feng, especially since the angle made it impossible for him to look away, giving him quite a headache.
"Feeling better?" Jiang Feng asked with a frown.
"Mm..." Bai Zhiqing, unaware of Jiang Feng's gaze, felt even weaker after vomiting and wobbled as if she would faint.
Jiang Feng supported her with one hand, and Bai Zhiqing, unable to steady herself, instinctively collapsed softly into his arms.
Jiang Feng prudently pushed her away to a reasonable distance, quietly asking, "Which floor do you live on?"
Bai Zhiqing, struggling with a severe headache, was reluctant to move from Jiang Feng's embrace, murmurously replying, "Fifth floor..."
While speaking, she fumbled into the pocket of her shorts and took out the keys.
Taking the keys, Jiang Feng supported the tottering Bai Zhiqing up the stairs, glancing at the doorway with his peripheral vision to see that those three cars had already followed them in, Brother Hu's gaze on him like he was a dead man walking!
