Chapter 2281 - 2254: Phone Call

Although it was already past eleven o’clock at night, the traffic on the road was still quite heavy. But that was more than enough for Lu Tianxing, with his superb skills, he was almost threading through the needle, ignoring the traffic lights completely, speeding crazily all the way, and turning corners without any reduction in speed.

The people on the street and the cars moving slowly were left in shock as they saw the BMW car flash by like a whirlwind, cursing but also with faces full of surprise.

"Damn, who the hell is this guy, so awesome, even professional race car drivers might not be this good, right?"

"Am I seeing things? How can a BMW go as fast as a sports car?"

"Shit, is this guy in such a hurry to reincarnate? So many cars, and he dares to drive this fast, does he have a death wish?"

"Amazing, just amazing, the skill is simply mind-blowing."

The drivers by the roadside were either cursing out loud or exclaiming in astonishment, they had never seen anyone so crazy before.

Lu Tianxing’s driving speed was so fast that people could only catch a blur, and by the time they looked again, there was no trace of the car.

Lu Tianxing was oblivious to all this; at this moment, he had only one thought in his mind: to appear at Jingye Cafe in the shortest possible time.

Meanwhile, in the Shu Tang Family.

Tang Fengxing sat on the couch in the living room, his eyes fixed unwaveringly on the cell phone on the coffee table, a hint of unconcealable seriousness on his face.

Ever since Tang Fengyun called him, telling him to make a move at eleven o’clock tonight, he had been sitting on the couch waiting, always waiting, waiting for Tang Fengyun to bring back good news.

"Knock-knock-knock!"

Just then, the sound of light footsteps came from behind Tang Fengxing, and a woman in pajamas walked down from the second floor along the stairs.

This woman looked to be around forty, but she showed no signs of aging. Well-maintained and charming, if standing next to an average girl in her twenties, no one would believe this woman was in her fifties; they would only think she was the girl’s sister.

After coming down from upstairs, the woman went straight to Tang Fengxing’s side and, without any formality, sat beside him, leaning her head on Tang Fengxing’s shoulder like a little bird depending on a person.

"Fengxing, you haven’t had a good night’s sleep in a long time. At this rate, your body won’t be able to take it," the woman raised her head slowly, looked at Tang Fengxing, and said with a worried face.

"Min’er, I’m fine. You know my body, even if I stay up late like this, I’ll be okay. Don’t worry, if you’re tired, go ahead and rest, I’ll sleep later," feeling the woman’s thoughtfulness, Tang Fengxing turned his head, lightly caressed the woman’s youthful face, and said softly.

The woman was none other than Tang Fengxing’s wife, Chen Min, and the biological mother of Tang Qingyun.

Moreover, Chen Min played a significant role in helping Tang Fengxing secure the position of Family Head in the Tang Family. She was a great support, though she always stayed low-key and did not involve herself in Tang Family affairs, thus remaining little known.

"Fengxing, is it about the Lu Family?" Chen Min asked after hearing Tang Fengxing’s words.

Although she did not deal with Tang Family matters, acting mainly as Tang Fengxing’s support, she couldn’t possibly be unaware of the recent rumors.

"Yes, it’s because of the Lu Family."

Tang Fengxing lit a cigarette for himself and took a puff, the smoke circling around his face, giving him a somewhat grim appearance, "A few hours ago, I received a call from my second brother, who said to prevent any mishaps, we should act tonight at eleven and kidnap Bai Qiao Mountain, but now there has been no news, and I’m a bit worried."

If anything happened to Tang Fengyun, then he, the only one of the three brothers left, would truly be a lone person.

"Fengxing, you don’t have to worry too much, Fengyun will be fine. He is a late-stage mythical expert, kidnapping a few ordinary people is a piece of cake for him, nothing to worry about," Chen Min tried to console Tang Fengxing.

"I know, but that’s the reason I’m concerned. It’s been almost half an hour with no news, and I’m a bit worried still."

Tang Fengxing sighed melancholically. After all, Modu was the territory of the Rose Society, Lu Tianxing’s base, and if anything went wrong, it could be disastrous for Tang Fengyun, with almost no chance of survival or returning to Shu alive.

Chen Min looked at Tang Fengxing and sighed in her heart. As his supportive wife, there wasn’t much more she could say, so she could only lean against Tang Fengxing, keeping him company.

"Ring-ring-ring!"

Suddenly, Tang Fengxing’s cell phone rang. Without hesitation, he picked up the phone.

Seeing the caller ID, a slight degree of excitement appeared on Tang Fengxing’s face, and he quickly answered, "Fengyun, where are you now, how did it go, did you succeed?"

"Big Brother, I’m sorry, I failed."

In a sewer not far from the Bai Family Ancestral House, Tang Fengyun leaned against the stinking pipe, gasping for breath, his voice weak and powerless.

At this moment, Tang Fengyun was no longer the arrogant and domineering person he was before, looking no different from a beggar. He was as wretched as a beaten dog, his chest covered with bloodstains, his body overwhelmed by waves of burning True Qi ravaging his meridians.

"Failed?"

Upon hearing Tang Fengyun’s words, Tang Fengxing’s expression changed slightly, his tone shifted as he listened to Tang Fengyun’s weak voice, "Second Brother, what happened? Are you hurt? Where are you now, I’ll send someone to get you right away."

"Big Brother, you don’t need to send anyone."

Tang Fengyun’s voice was hoarse, "Big Brother, I’m done for. I got hit by Jiang Liufeng’s Fenghuo True Qi, and I was poisoned. The True Qi in my body is overwhelming, and I can’t suppress the Fenghuo True Qi. Maybe in a few minutes, I’ll be dead..."

Before Tang Fengyun could finish, Tang Fengxing interrupted angrily, "Second Brother, don’t talk nonsense, where are you, tell me now, I’ll send someone immediately..."
