Quick Transmigration: Why did you provoke him? He's love-struck!

Chapter 581 Keeping a Canary in Captivity (60)

Gao Shenghan didn't miss Yu Yanfei's momentary pause and change of topic. A hint of gloom flashed in his eyes. He then put his hand on Yu Yanfei's shoulder and led him into Red Leaf Manor.

"It's windy outside, let's go inside and talk slowly."

The two walked arm in arm into the villa. As they passed the artificial lake, the sound of a violin being played came from the lakeside.

Yu Yanfei stopped and looked over, and saw a group of people gathered around the lake, surrounded by a large number of expensive imported flowers, which seemed to be a marriage proposal scene.

Yu Yanfei's curiosity was piqued, so he went over to watch the excitement.

Upon closer inspection, he realized that it was a rich second-generation heir he used to drink with proposing to his girlfriend.

His girlfriend is a moderately famous celebrity; Yu Yanfei had met her at a gala event.

How could he not capitalize on this buzz? Yu Yanfei immediately took out his phone, adjusted the angle, and filmed a video. He then posted it on his WeChat Moments in the voice of a participant: "I was fortunate enough to witness this happy moment."

The location is also indicated below: Red Leaf Manor.

After posting on WeChat Moments, Yu Yanfei put away her phone and went to the private dining room with Gao Shenghan.

The private room was reserved by Gao Shenghan for his wife's family to host a get-together, but Yan Zhen refused to attend the "farewell dinner," so it wasn't used.

Once inside the private room, Gao Shenghan opened a very expensive bottle of wine and chatted with Yu Yanfei while drinking.

Yu Yanfei used to be a gambler, and now he's a heavy drinker. When he sees good wine, he can't help but drink a few more glasses, and soon he gets tipsy and has to go to the toilet frequently.

While Yu Yanfei went to the restroom, Gao Shenghan took the car keys from his bag, quietly left the private room, and went to the parking lot through the side gate of the villa.

Upon arriving at the parking lot, Gao Shenghan put on gloves, got into the car, removed the dashcam, drove to a secluded spot, opened the hood, broke the brakes with a pair of pliers, and put two cans of gasoline in the trunk.

After doing all this, Gao Shenghan drove the car back to its original spot and quietly returned to the private room.

At 10 p.m., Yu Yanfei and Gao Shenghan came out of the villa.

Gao Shenghan shook the car keys in his hand and asked Yu Yanfei, "Do you want to call a designated driver?"

Yu Yanfei shook his head as expected: "No, I didn't drink much, I can drive."

Hongye Mountain Villa is more than 50 kilometers away from the city center. Most of the people who come here are wealthy and bring their own drivers and bodyguards. Designated drivers generally don't come here to wait for business.

Ordering a ride through a designated driver app means the driver will take at least an hour and a half to arrive, and the round trip can cost several hundred yuan.

Yu Yanfei has always believed in saving where he should and spending where he should. Since there were no traffic police checking for drunk driving on the way down the mountain, he planned to drive into the city and find a designated driver to get through the section of road where checkpoints are usually set up.

Gao Shenghan clearly already knew that Yu Yanfei often did this kind of thing, so he didn't stop him and just said calmly, "Then be careful."

Yu Yanfei waved his hand: "See you later."

He jumped into the car, started the engine, and drove away.

Gao Shenghan leaned against the car and smoked a cigarette before getting into his own car and following them.

Yan family.

After helping Gao Xinyu with his homework, Yan Zhen patiently played games with him for half an hour. Seeing that it was getting late, she urged Gao Xinyu to go to bed.

As she was about to return to her room, Gao Xinyu, who had already lain down, suddenly sat up and looked at her expectantly: "Mom, do you and Dad really have to get a divorce?"

"Correct."

Gao Xinyu lowered his eyes.

"Go to sleep." Yan Zhen patted his head. "You have to go to school tomorrow."

Gao Xinyu: "...Goodnight, Mom."

Yan Zhen walked out of the children's room and turned off the lights and the door as she did so.

She didn't leave immediately, but stood quietly at the door of the children's room for a while.

Before long, faint, suppressed sobs could be heard from inside.

Yan Zhen sighed softly and walked towards her room.

After washing her face, Yan Zhen sat on the bed, applying a face mask while scrolling through her WeChat Moments.

Soon, she came across the marriage proposal video posted by Yu Yanfei.

The video content is not important, but in the last two seconds of the video, Gao Shenghan's profile appears in the moving shot.

When Yan Zhen saw that the location at the bottom of the video was "Red Leaf Villa", he sat up slightly.

Red Leaf Villa, Gao Shenghan.

Based on Gao Shenghan's probing phone call last night, his delivery of soup to her company this morning, his use of her computer, and his checking of her credit card after leaving the company, Yan Zhen quickly drew a conclusion—

Gao Shenghan not only suspects Yu Yanfei of betraying him, but is now preparing to take action to deal with this "traitor."

Thinking of this, Yan Zhen immediately made a voice call to Yu Yanfei.

The voice call connected quickly, and Yu Yanfei's voice carried a hint of surprise: "President Yan?"

Yan Zhen asked seriously, "Where are you?"

Yu Yanfei said, "I'm at Red Leaf Manor, what's wrong?"

"With Gao Shenghan?"

Yu Yanfei paused for a moment, then said, "Yes."

"Be careful, Gao Shenghan wants you dead."

"How did you know?" Yu Yanfei was taken aback and subconsciously slowed down the car.

It was at this moment that he discovered the brakes on his brand-new car had failed.

Yan Zhen's voice on the phone became muffled: "I overheard him making a phone call, saying that you're the one who ruined him, and he'll drag you down to hell with him even if he dies... Anyway, you need to be careful."

After saying that, Yan Zhen hung up the phone.

The phone slipped from Yu Yanfei's hand. After a brief moment of distraction, he realized that Gao Shenghan had invited him to Red Leaf Manor tonight not to "discuss plans," but to kill him.

This bastard realized he was going to die after the divorce, so he wanted to take someone down with him before he died.

Yu Yanfei cursed Gao Shenghan in his heart, his hands gripping the steering wheel tightly, cold sweat instantly beading on his forehead.

Fortunately, he had drunk some alcohol that night, and the road down the mountain had many curves, so his speed was not too fast.

Moreover, Yan Zhen's call came just in time. He slowed down to answer the call and then discovered that the brakes had failed. Otherwise, in another five or six minutes, the car would have passed the most winding and steepest bend on the entire road, and it would have been too late to discover the brake failure then.

Now he needs to figure out how to stop the car before reaching the bend.

Despite his anger, Yu Yanfei had developed a certain level of mental fortitude after years of working with loan sharks and cheating so many relatives and friends.

He quickly calmed down, turned on the high beams, and started rubbing the car against the roadside railing, trying to force the car to stop by friction.

The new car kept scraping against the concrete fence, and the scraping sound made Yu Yanfei's heart bleed.

This is his new car!!!

After four or five minutes of friction, the car slowed down to a safe speed. Yu Yanfei gritted his teeth, made a sharp turn of the steering wheel, and the car spun sharply, crashing into the guardrail. It lurched violently and came to a stop.

With the crisis temporarily averted, Yu Yanfei breathed a sigh of relief.

Before he could even catch his breath, a strong smell of gasoline filled the car.

Yu Yanfei's nerves tightened, and he quickly got out of the car to check. He saw gasoline dripping continuously from the trunk.
