《Once Upon a Time in a Foreign Land》Chapter 149 : Ximen Yixiong
Advertisement
Gongxi was back again. The old man smiled at them. He started the car. The car came out through the garage door that Gongxi had just opened.
What if the car that was following us, is currently running around in this area? Although we have changed vehicles, but those people could still recognize us or the driver of this car.
Arriving outside, Gongxi stopped the car again. He got out of the car to close and lock the garage door from the outside. Now they were in another alley, which was exactly the same as the one they had left. It was clear that these two alleys were actually the same alley, which was interrupted by a long garage.
"Let's wait about a minute, Sir!" Gongxi said.
"Okay!" Yixiong nodded quickly.
Luckily, we still have time. Hopefully, there will be no other obstacles that will befall us after this.
"Perhaps you are surprised by what just happened," said Gongxi. "Now allow me to explain a little."
The old man took a deep breath.
So much experience he has. It's a shame if he doesn't have the intention to pour things like this into a memoir.
"This alley and garage are the property of the Mingju Family. Their function is to deal with emergency and unexpected things. Examples are like what we just experienced."
No wonder this old man did not hesitate to turn into the alley at high speed. It turns out that all of this is indeed the Mingju family property. But still there was a possibility that there were people in the alley, for example, homeless people who were sheltering.
"But what if someone was in the alley?" Yiren suddenly cut off Gongxi's words.
Maybe it's not a big problem. If this old man crashed into homelessness, who happened to be in the alley, with the influence of Mingju's family, it might not get to the court.

"Yiren," said Yixiong. "Let Mr. Gongxi finish his speech."
"Sorry Dahge." Yiren bowed respectfully in a sitting position. "Sorry, Mr. Gongxi."
"It's all right, Sir," said Gongxi. "That was a gamble for me too. I also can't be sure that this alley will always be empty."
Yixiong, Yiren, and Jingkang nodded at Gongxi's explanation.
Luckily, everything went the way he wanted.
"Is this your own initiative, or did Mr. Tsaehorng order you?" Yiren leaned forward.
"As I said earlier, Mr. Tsaehorng didn't have time to say much on the phone. But before he hung up, he said three specific words. The words are secret codes to carry out an instruction about what I have to do if an emergency occurs. In essence, young master Tsaehorng ordered me to change cars if certain things happened that threatened the safety of the passengers. Earlier I saw we were being followed. I tried to lead our stalker to this area. After confirming that we were indeed being followed, then I carried out this plan."
"Wow! This is very stressful. But anyway, we thank you," said Yixiong.
"I'm just doing my job, Sir," said Gongxi. "All right! I think we can move on now!"
"What about the car that was following us?" Jingkang, who had not been talking much, this time opened his mouth.
"I can only hope that the car has left the area around here, Sir," said Gongxi.
In other words, may luck still is on our side.
Gongxi started running the car. Their distance to the end of the alley was about fifty meters. Immediately, they arrived at the end of the alley. The car turned left. The road turned out to be a one -way road. Just like the other end of the alley, the distance was only a few meters from the big road. In a short time, the vehicle they were traveling in had returned to the big road.

After deviating slightly from the original direction, the car returned to the right direction, namely Chyhjoong Park. At an intersection, they stopped. While waiting for the traffic light to turn green, Yixiong looked around their car.
Even though they were quite far from their house, Yixiong saw some familiar things. Just like some of the other crossroads in Pyngyuan and the surrounding areas, there were also many hawkers at the crossroads.
Many of the hawkers were selling their merchandise aggressively to the passengers in the car when the car stopped at the intersection. Things like that were sometimes very disturbing. But it was a reality that people must face. The items they offered were very diverse. Starting from children's toys, stationery, body hygiene products, to small electronic devices. Some even offered a raft made of plastic. The raft must be filled with air. The way it worked was similar to swimming tires or floaties used by children when they learned to swim.
Life is hard. I think we should be grateful that our lives are so much better than most of the people in this city.
The traffic lights turned green. Gongxi started running the car. Their car would run straight across the intersection. Everything looked safe. Their journey would take place smoothly. However, suddenly, on the right, there was a car that drove at high speed.
Are they crazy or what? Speeding on the road like this!
Gongxi tried to put the brakes on the vehicle, but nobody knew what was in the mind of the driver of the car that drove fast. He instead slammed the steering wheel to the left. Both cars then collided. Not only that. Because Gongxi braked suddenly, the car behind them did not have time to brake. The car crashed into their car from behind. Even though the crashing sound was not very loud, Yixiong felt a tremendous shock.
