My Wife Is a Superstar (Ning Tan)

Chapter 652 Who Is She Really

As Qiao Zhan had predicted, right as his car was a few hundred meters away from their starting point, cars slowly

came out from the alleyways and began tailing them.

As a matter of fact, more and more cars were tailing them. There were at least a dozen cars. If each car had four

people in it, that meant Li Xiaolong had at least fifty people tailing them.

Qiao Zhan, on the other hand, only had seven to eight men with him. Even if Qiao Zhan’s men were more skilled in

battle, the sheer number of their opponents would be a handful to deal with.

Moreover, if a fight were to break out, the young women would need protection. Things would take a turn for the

worse if one of them were captured by Li Xiaolong’s men.

“Should we call the cops? This won’t work,” Ning Ran urged. Lu Jingyuan seemed unfazed as she said calmly, “It’s

fine. We’ll stop at a more spacious place up ahead. I’ll have a brief talk with them.”

Ning Ran inhaled sharply at that. They look like local gangsters, and you’re not one of the locals. How are you going

to discuss anything with them?

“That won’t work. These people aren’t reasonable people. There isn’t anything for us to discuss with them about.

Ms. Lu, you really mustn’t get down from the car. Let’s call the cops and have them deal with this instead,” Ning

Ran suggested.

“We just came out from the station. These people are only tailing us; they aren’t doing anything. If we call the cops

now, we’ll have no evidence of them doing anything to us. Besides, they’re prowling near the station. Even if we go

back to the station now, we’ll still encounter them when we come back out. If that’s the case, we might as well talk

to them instead. Perhaps we can change their minds.”

Ning Ran could not believe that Lu Jingyuan was actually thinking of reasoning with gangsters. Moreover, she looked

calm and confident.

Since she had said that, Ning Ran could not possibly forcibly stop her.

Lu Jingyuan did not seem like a rash person after all. Ning Ran guessed she had to have a reason to make a

decision like that.

“Let’s stop at the spot up ahead, then,” Ning Ran told Qiao Zhan.

“Don’t worry, Lu Jingyuan. I’ll protect both you and Ms. Ning,” Qiao Zhan promised.

“It’s all right. We live in a lawful society. Grouping up doesn’t mean that they can do anything they want to. Besides,

it isn’t my first day here in Livingsfill. It’s really fine.”

Ning Ran felt that she should trust the confident Lu Jingyuan.

Maybe the people in the cars behind us are just trying to frighten us.

Once they arrived at a relatively remote district, Qiao Zhan stopped the car, and the cars behind them immediately

surrounded Qiao Zhan’s car.

Then, the people in the car came out.

The one leading them all was none other than Li Xiaolong. He hit Qiao Zhan’s car and shouted, “Get the hell out of

there right now!”

“Stay here. I’ll go down,” Lu Jingyuan said.

“That doesn’t sound safe. Let Qiao Zhan go with you. There are too many of them,” Ning Ran said worriedly.

“She’s right. Ms. Lu. Let me accompany you.”

“It’s really fine. Trust me. I can deal with this.” Lu Jingyuan waved dismissively.

Despite her constant reassurance, Qiao Zhan was still wracked with worry as he insisted on following her out of the

car. However, Ning Ran stopped him.

“Don’t go first and observe the situation for now. If a man gets out of the car now, I’m afraid a fight will break out,”

Ning Ran muttered.

The moment Lu Jingyuan stepped out of the car, several men crowded around her.

“The ones in the car are my friends, so don’t make things hard for them,” Lu Jingyuan said to them in a steady

tone.

“Who are you? Aren’t you the owner of Mountview Inn? We’re not going to hold back if you want to stick your nose

into this,” Li Xiaolong hissed.

“If you know who I am, then you must know that it’s pointless for you to try to threaten me. You know you can’t

scare me.”

“Move aside. We won’t give you a hard time. Get those people in the car to come out here. How dare they go up

against me? I’m going to let them know who the king is here!” Li Xiaolong bellowed.

“I’ll have them come out here. Apologize to them and we’ll drop this matter.”

“An apology isn’t enough! I want them to kneel before me!” Li Xiaolong said haughtily.

“Let’s skip the kneeling part. I’m afraid you’ll have none of your pride left if you kneel in front of so many of your

men. Just apologize to them, and we’ll drop the matter.”

It was only then Li Xiaolong realized what she was talking about. Wait, she’s asking me to apologize to them?

Li Xiaolong burst into laughter. “Haha! Are you joking with me? You’re asking me to apologize to them?”

“Yes. This matter will be over after you apologize to them. It’s getting late too, so we’ll all get to go home.” Lu

Jingyuan was still as composed as ever.

As she spoke, she sent a message before lifting her phone to take a photo of Li Xiaolong.

“Come on, take more photos of me! Do you want me to pose for you too? How dare you ask me to apologize to

them? Are you f*cking crazy? Who do you think you are?” Li Xiaolong snarled.

“Don’t use profanities when you’re talking to me. I don’t like it,” Lu Jingyuan said coldly.

Ning Ran had wound down the car window a little, so she could hear everything that they were saying.

She could not quite understand what Lu Jingyuan was doing. I thought she was going to plead for mercy, but she’s

actually asking the ruffian to apologize instead?

It seems unbelievable. There are so many people surrounding us, but she’s asking him to apologize instead of

apologizing herself.

However, Lu Jingyuan was not joking around. At that moment, she was rapidly typing on her phone, seemingly in a

conversation with someone.

“Sadly, that’s the kind of person I am. If you don’t like it, get lost! I won’t put you in a tough spot because you have

an inn in Livingsfill. This has nothing to do with you, so scram!”

“You’re arrogant because your brother-in-law is a police sergeant, but do you know that he’ll no longer be the

police sergeant if you keep this up? Do you want to be the one who makes him lose his job?”

“What did you just say?”

All of a sudden, Lu Jingyuan asked, “Where’s your phone?”

“What exactly are you trying to say?” Li Xiaolong was confused.

“Someone’s calling you. Hurry up and pick up the call,” Lu Jingyuan said seriously.

“No one’s calling me!”

Right as Li Xiaolong said that, one of his lackeys came over and told him, “Mr. Long, you left your phone in the car.

It’s been ringing.”

Lu Jingyuan gestured for Li Xiaolong to answer the call.

“Hello? Did something happen?”

“Apologize to the people in the car right away. Do as they say, and don’t you dare reject anything.” The person on

the other end of the line was Li Xiaolong’s brother-in-law.

“What? I—”

“Do it right now, or else I’ll lose my job tomorrow, and you’ll be thrown to jail after getting found guilty of starting

an illegal organization!”

“What?”

“Hurry up and do it! Do it right now if you don’t want to die! There’s someone in there you can’t afford to cross!”

With that, Li Xiaolong’s brother-in-law ended the call.

Lu Jingyuan flashed him a mocking smile. “I wasn’t lying to you, right?”

Li Xiaolong did not know what was going on, but if his backup had made a call like this to him, he had no choice but

to heed his words.

He walked over to the car, bowed, and apologized.

“Louder, and be more sincere,” Lu Jingyuan demanded.

“I’m sorry! I won’t do this ever again. I’ll make sure that I stay out of your way from now on,” Li Xiaolong yelled.

Both Qiao Zhan and Ning Ran were dumbfounded.

What’s going on? Lu Jingyuan doesn’t seem like a nobody. Not only did she get these people to leave, but she even

got them to apologize. Who is she really?

“All right, my friends won’t want to bother themselves with you, so leave with your men now,” Lu Jingyuan said.

Immediately, Li Xiaolong shouted to his men, “You’re all dismissed! Stop staring and go!”
