This voice was Liao Yifan!
"Boss, that woman has indeed been knocked out and is lying on the ground... but... but..."
Liao Yifan's tone on the other end of the phone instantly turned sinister: "But what?"
"But we didn't find the IOU you mentioned in her bag! And she didn't have her phone in her bag, so we probably can't destroy the recording..."
Before the motorcyclist could finish speaking, he heard Liao Yifan's furious voice roar into his ears like a tsunami.
"Useless! Both of you are useless! You can't even handle such a simple matter! What am I feeding you for!"
"Damn it, no IOU, no recording. So you guys didn't accomplish anything except hitting her? Then when she wakes up, she'll definitely guess it was me, and she'll definitely get revenge on me!"
"You've ruined me!"
Hearing Liao Yifan's enraged words, the motorcyclist tentatively asked, "How about we go back and finish her off? That way she can't get revenge on you, boss."
The motorcyclist thought his loyal suggestion would earn him praise from Liao Yifan.
To his surprise, Liao Yifan's anger flared even more: "Idiot, with that walnut-sized brain of yours, don't give me advice! Do you know who she is? You're talking about killing her so casually! Her name is Min Ziqiong! Try killing her, you bastard!"
"Believe it or not, within two hours, you'll be wanted nationwide! The case will be classified as a major case! Not just you, I won't be able to escape either!"
"Ah?" Upon hearing Min Ziqiong's name, the two motorcyclists were stunned.
Even people in their line of work had heard of Min Ziqiong's name and knew she was a current sensation.
If they had impulsively killed Min Ziqiong, it would indeed have been a colossal disaster!
Such a high-profile case would surely be investigated by the police at any cost, wouldn't it?
Large beads of cold sweat instantly trickled down their foreheads.
"That blow I delivered earlier, it wasn't too heavy, was it?"
"Did I accidentally knock Min Ziqiong to death?"
"If she's dead, are we finished? Is it too late to run now?" the man who had delivered the blow nervously asked.
The man driving the motorcycle quickly distanced himself: "You're finished, I was just an accomplice, and definitely not the mastermind. Even if I get caught, I'll only serve a few years, not direct execution..."
"Damn it! When we swore our brotherhood, we said we'd share fortunes and misfortunes together. Now that something's happened, you're starting to shirk responsibility!"
"If it were you, you'd do the same! After all, who isn't afraid of death?"
Liao Yifan, listening to his two useless subordinates bickering over such matters at a time like this, became even more enraged.
Bang!
He violently smashed his phone on the ground.
He couldn't be bothered with the fate of his two foolish subordinates.
"No, I have to go back to Hong Kong quickly to hide."
"Once I'm in Hong Kong, neither Min Ziqiong nor the Mingzhu police will be able to reach me. They won't be able to do anything to me!"
"No time to lose, I'm leaving now!"
Liao Yifan muttered to himself, without any hesitation, not even packing his luggage. He pushed open the door and headed straight for the airport!
In the hospital.
Min Ziqiong finally woke up.
As soon as she woke up, Min Ziqiong guessed the truth of the matter.
However, there was no original IOU as claimed; her phone was also in her pants pocket.
Therefore, Liao Yifan would surely assume: the relevant evidence was still in Min Ziqiong's possession!
Liao Yifan would then have two choices.
One choice was to pretend nothing happened and continue to default on the debt;
The second choice was to send people to hunt down Min Ziqiong until the so-called evidence was obtained!
But the evidence was fake, non-existent, how could it be obtained?
Therefore, if Liao Yifan made this choice, Min Ziqiong's situation would become extremely dangerous!
Liao Yifan, unable to find the evidence repeatedly, might resort to extreme measures and commit murder in a fit of rage!
And Liao Yifan would only need to pay ten million out of 1.4 billion, and find two scapegoats to take the blame!
Thinking of this, Min Ziqiong felt both angry and terrified.
Without hesitation, she immediately sat up from the hospital bed and shouted, "Nurse, I want to be discharged!"
...
Jianghai.
Airport.
Only when the plane landed did Min Ziqiong heave a sigh of relief.
Ignoring the bandage on her head, she quickly walked towards the airport exit.
Although Jianghai was safer than Mingzhu, it wasn't completely safe.
After all, the Liao family had an auction house in Jianghai and had some social connections.
If Liao Yifan sent people to intercept Min Ziqiong at the airport, she might still be in mortal danger.
As Min Ziqiong passed by an airport shop, she bought a hat and a pair of sunglasses.
She covered herself up tightly, kept her head down, and flashed past the airport entrance.
"Huh, the way that person is dressed, looks like a star?"
"I haven't heard of any film crews setting up in Jianghai recently! Judging by her back, she should be quite beautiful. Could it be some famous female star secretly meeting a lover!"
"Possible! Why don't we follow her and see?"
"We have to see! It's been two months since our last big scoop! If we don't get any more news, we'll be fired by the editor-in-chief!"
Two paparazzi mistook her for a female celebrity involved in a scandal, their eyes glinting with predatory greed, and they took off in pursuit.
Poor Min Ziqiong, mistaking the two paparazzi for assassins sent by Liao Yifan.
Greatly alarmed, she couldn't help but quicken her pace towards a taxi.
Before the taxi driver could stop, she directly pulled open the door and said to the driver, "Quick! Shouyang Mountain Villa!"
"If you can get there within half an hour, I'll give you triple fare!"
The driver, hearing he could get triple fare, was instantly delighted.
He beckoned Min Ziqiong to sit down and immediately took off like a rocket, accelerating to over 120.
The way he drove made one suspect he was a former F1 racer.
"Holy crap, driving that fast? Quick, quick, get in the car!" The two paparazzi also hailed a taxi.
After getting in, they saw Min Ziqiong's car getting further and further away, about to disappear.
Gritting their teeth, they offered five times the fare!
"Driver, follow that car closely! As long as you can determine its destination, we'll give you five times the fare!"
To their surprise, the driver was unhurried, even taking the time to pick up his water cup and take a sip.
Seeing this, the two paparazzi grew anxious: "Driver, hurry up! We're about to lose sight of that car's taillights!"
The driver remained unhurried, his movements as lazy as a sloth in an animated cartoon.
Just as the two paparazzi were about to get angry, the driver finally picked up his phone, opened WeChat, and sent a voice message: "Old Li, I'm treating tonight, send me your passenger's destination."
