Chapter 311 Getting to Safety (1/2)
Inside a car, two guys were gritting their teeth. The co-driver was on the phone, shouting at the person at the other end, ”You said that this was an easy job!!”
Sheng Xian, who was on the other end, took the phone off his ear and looked at it with a frown. How dare this lowly person shout at him? He hired them. He paid them. They were to be respectful to him!
Bringing the phone back to his ear, he hissed, ”How hard is it to kill off a housewife? Don't tell me your skills are only that much? Your reputation isn't well deserved then.”
”The target isn't the issue,” the man shouted, ”It's those people with her. They've already taken out three of my men!!”
Sheng Xian laughed, not believing the words. He felt they were just exaggerating so to escape liability for their incompetence.
”So let me get this straight,” Sheng Xian said coldly, ”That the little woman who has absolutely nothing to her name, or money, actually has friends that are capable not only to protect her from being killed, but also off three of your men?!”
When he said it that way, even the ones who were in the high-speed chase found it ridiculous. But it was the truth! They were experiencing such a surreal moment.
”Are you fucking kidding me?!” Sheng Xian shouted, standing up as he huffed, ”Get rid of them all!”
With that, Sheng Xian hung up the phone.
The guy, having been hung up on, glared at the phone. He looked at the car that they were chasing, that was getting further and further away.
”Are you even driving??!” he shouted at the driver, who then glared at him.
”Are you blind?! I'm already flooring it!!” the driver roared back at him, feeling unjustly accussed.
The guy looked at the speedometer and his eyes popped out.
It was true.
They were already at the maximum speed that the car could handle, and yet, the car in front that looked quite ordinary ... was obviously getting further away. It wasn't just the fact that the driver of the car in front could weave in and out of the traffic easily, but it was actually faster.
”Ah, fuck this,” the guy shouted, banging the dashboard, ”Let them be.”
”Huh?”
”This was not what we signed up for,” he growled, ”The price is not worth the loss we suffered.”
The driver nodded in understanding, slowing down.
