"What did you say?" Wu Gang's eyelids twitched, and he exclaimed.
In his conversation with Wu Li, he not only learned the source of the Jiang family's fortune but also that it was all thanks to Chen Jie.
He also knew that the Zhou family had been defeated by Chen Jie.
If even the Zhou family had to kneel, what hope did he have?
"Manman, what do you mean? Didn't you say the Ye family would destroy Chen Jie? Why is he still alive? Tell me, he's not dead yet because the Ye family hasn't made a move! The Ye family will act soon! Tell me quickly!" Wu Gang asked in fear.
"You heard me correctly! Chen Jie is not dead, and he most likely won't die because the Ye family has met with disaster! I just visited the Ye family and discovered that everyone in the Ye family, from top to bottom, is dead!"
Yin Manman said.
"What should I do? What should I do now?" Wu Gang was instantly beside himself.
Just then, he looked ahead, and his expression froze.
On the phone, Yin Manman said anxiously, "Chen Jie will definitely not let you go! Run quickly! Leave Pingcheng forever, or you'll be dead once he finds you! He even dares to kill members of the Ye family, let alone you?"
"Wu Gang, are you listening to me?"
Wu Gang didn't answer, because in the distance, a person was waiting for him.
Under the light, he realized it was Chen Jie.
Jiang Xue, in the passenger seat, also became agitated. Though her mouth was stuffed with fabric, she struggled and made muffled sounds.
"Hit him! If you hit him, everything will be over!"
A crazed look appeared on Wu Gang's face.
He then slammed the accelerator, steering the van towards Chen Jie at high speed.
In the distance, Chen Jie's face was filled with murderous intent.
A mere old classmate dared to kidnap Jiang Long's daughter!
Chen Jie looked coldly at Wu Gang's van, not dodging, and let Wu Gang crash into him.
Boom!
The van hit Chen Jie at a speed of one hundred kilometers per hour.
With a loud crash.
Chen Jie's body didn't move an inch, as his protective artifact completely blocked the impact of the car.
Ah!
Inside the car, Wu Gang let out a scream. His body slammed into the windshield, and then he was flung out of the driver's seat like a cannonball, flying a great distance.
Jiang Xue's body was held in place by her seatbelt.
During the impact, thanks to the protective artifact, she was unharmed.
Chen Jie walked to the front of the van, ripped open the door, and decisively cut the ropes binding Jiang Xue.
At the same time, he picked up the phone that had fallen inside the car.
The call was still connected, and Yin Manman was still exclaiming on the phone, "Wu Gang, are you alright? What happened?"
"Wu Gang is already dead," Chen Jie said expressionlessly into the phone.
Yin Manman quickly said, "Chen Jie, is that you?"
She hurried to explain, "Chen Jie, listen to me, I had no idea about any of this! I have no relationship with Wu Gang!"
"Do you think I'll believe you?" Chen Jie said coldly.
"If I see you again, you'll be the next to die!"
After speaking, Chen Jie casually tossed the phone off the overpass.
"Chen Jie..." Jiang Xue looked at Chen Jie with complex emotions.
"Wait a moment," Chen Jie said.
As he spoke, Chen Jie lifted the van and threw it directly off the bridge.
With a splash, the van fell into the water and disappeared after a while.
This scene made Jiang Xue's eyes widen.
Then, Chen Jie walked towards Wu Gang.
Jiang Xue quickly followed behind Chen Jie. It was late at night, and there were no other cars on the road, so Jiang Xue dared not stray too far from Chen Jie.
Arriving beside Wu Gang, she saw that he had already lost all signs of life.
Chen Jie, with a swift motion, grabbed his clothes and threw him over the bridge.
"Let's go!" Chen Jie said to Jiang Xue, turning around after he finished.
"We're just leaving like this? Aren't you going to explain anything to me?" Jiang Xue stood rooted to the spot, shouting angrily at Chen Jie.
Chen Jie blinked, frowning. "Explain what to you?"
Jiang Xue stomped her feet angrily and approached Chen Jie. "Since you knew Wu Gang was here, you must have known I was in the car too. Why did you just block the car like that? Weren't you afraid I'd fall to my death too? Or do you simply not care about my life or death?"
Chen Jie's displeasure immediately surfaced. "Didn't I give you a protective artifact?"
He had saved Jiang Xue's life, and she was still blaming him. What kind of logic was this?
However, Chen Jie now understood that Wu Gang was Yin Manman's man.
And Yin Manman was Ye Fan's woman. If the Ye family could kidnap Wang Xiaoyan, they could certainly kidnap Jiang Xue.
Chen Jie wasn't surprised by this.
"A protective artifact? What if I wasn't wearing it?" Jiang Xue retorted angrily.
Chen Jie was speechless. "Something so precious should naturally be worn close to you!"
"Then wouldn't I take it off when I bathe at night?" Jiang Xue glared at Chen Jie.
Her words were clearly designed to imply that Chen Jie had deliberately tried to kill her.
"Alright, I sensed your location because of the protective artifact. I can sense whether you are wearing one or not," Chen Jie finally explained in exasperation.
"That's still not right! What if Wu Gang had snatched my protective artifact? You just didn't care about my life! You bastard!" Jiang Xue cursed angrily.
The scene of the rollover had terrified her. She wouldn't forgive Chen Jie so easily.
"I'll take you home first. Uncle Jiang is very worried about you," Chen Jie said, too tired to argue.
"I'm not leaving! You must give me a perfect explanation!" Jiang Xue said indignantly.
Chen Jie furrowed his brow deeply, turned around, and looked directly at Jiang Xue. "What exactly is wrong with your brain? I told you long ago not to invite Wu Gang in. You insisted on doing so. When I left, you didn't send Wu Gang away quickly either!"
"Furthermore, you were foolish enough to be tricked by Wu Gang. To put it bluntly, even if you died because of this, it would have little to do with me. I saved your life, and you're blaming me instead?"
"Are you coming or not? If not, I'm leaving."
It was late at night, and no taxis were passing by.
Chen Jie had rushed here at full speed, and his sports car had been wrecked.
Therefore, they might have to walk home.
"You... you dare to say that to me, you stinking bumpkin, what are you so arrogant about? I'm not leaving! If you dare to leave, I'll tell my dad you left me here alone!"
"You go! Leave now, and from now on, we'll have nothing to do with each other! Get lost!" Jiang Xue cursed.
Chen Jie gave her a cold look. "I'll call Uncle Jiang to come pick you up. Farewell!"
"Bastard, how dare you!"
"Leave! Don't come back!"
Ignoring Jiang Xue, Chen Jie turned and left, quickly disappearing into the darkness.
Jiang Xue shouted a few more times at the top of her lungs. When she realized Chen Jie had truly left, tears began to flow uncontrollably.
"Bastard! You're really leaving just because I told you to!"
"Do you only have Wang Xiaoyan in your eyes? You disgusting couple!"
