Let you raise pigs?But kicked me out of the classmate group?

Chapter 1405: Playing with Heartbeat
Chapter 1406 It's all about the thrill!

The leader inside the car gave the order.

This time, the target is Qin Hao, and the others will naturally be dealt with as well.

Qin Hao tapped his fingers lightly on the steering wheel. In the rearview mirror, a black SUV maintained a distance that was neither too close nor too far.

He squinted and glanced at the side mirror; the gray sedan on his right had been following him for three intersections.

"interesting."

He scoffed lightly, then suddenly jerked the steering wheel, the tires screeching against the road, and the car instantly veered into the narrow alley.

The vehicle behind was clearly caught off guard by this move, and the two cars nearly collided.

But just a few seconds later, the roar of the engine drew closer again.

Qin Hao caught a glimpse of a third car pulling out from the alleyway, its blinding high beams shining directly at him.

"boom!"

The car shook violently, and Qin Hao's forehead nearly hit the steering wheel.

The two car doors were opened at the same time, and four burly men in black surrounded him. They moved swiftly but did not touch him, only slapping a document onto the hood.

"Signed."

The leader spoke in a flat voice, his fingertip pointing to the signature area at the end of the document.

Qin Hao glanced at the contents and twitched the corner of his mouth.

Gold mine equity dilution and benchmark price locking—everything is going into Sofia's pocket.

The biggest beneficiary was Sofia.

That means the person who made the arrangement this time is the other party.

"Let her talk to us herself."

He leaned against the car door and didn't move.

Sofia acted quickly, sending people over immediately.

Although this was probably within Qin Hao's expectations.

However, regardless of the circumstances, it was indeed something Qin Hao hadn't prepared for beforehand.

The burly man didn't react, but took half a step forward, casting his shadow over Qin Hao's face.

"Sign it, or we'll sign it for you."

The air in the alley was frozen solid.

Threats, threats again.

Qin Hao hates being threatened the most.

Qin Hao took out his cigarette case, shook out a cigarette, put it in his mouth, and the lighter lit up with a "click".

As the smoke cleared, he looked up at the group and asked casually, "She doesn't dare to show herself?"

No one answered.

These people had made a strict rule before they arrived: they could not reveal a single word about Sofia.

Of course, Sophia also knew that even so, there was no way to truly prevent Qin Hao from suspecting her.

After all, the contract was far too obvious.

Smoke rings spread through the enclosed carriage.

He suddenly pressed the lock button.

With a "click" sound, the bald man's expression changed drastically.

Qin Hao had already dialed the number, and Charlie's voice came through the speakerphone: "Boss, have you located it?"

"Ah."

Qin Hao stared at the bald man's twitching eye, "Have the Gold Price Bureau's live broadcast van come over, and say..."

He deliberately raised his voice, saying, "We've caught the perpetrator red-handed for falsifying mineral vein data."

The bald man slammed his fist on the car window, yelling, "You son of a bitch!"

"Oh, right." Qin Hao waved his phone.

"Your words have been recorded. If you're not afraid of death, then keep talking. I'm waiting for you."

Upon hearing this, the bald man's face turned even uglier. He took a deep breath, but didn't know what to say.

He couldn't let Qin Hao leave until the mission was accomplished. Looking at the contract in his hand, he was determined to fight Qin Hao to the bitter end.

Qin Hao wasn't in a hurry and sat comfortably in the driver's seat, scrolling through videos while waiting for the people from the Gold Price Bureau to arrive.

Upon seeing this, the bald man's eyes darted around, his brain racing as he tried to figure out what to do.

"If what the boss said is true, our whereabouts will be exposed once the live-streaming vehicle arrives, and the sponsor won't give us any money."

"Of course I know, so we have to get rid of it."

Seeing that Qin Hao had made up his mind, the bald man whispered a few words to his subordinates beside him.

The bald man gave his men a wink, and the group quickly circled around to the back of Qin Hao's car, pulling a thick rope from the trunk of his SUV.

Seeing this scene in the rearview mirror, Qin Hao couldn't help but speak up. They were clearly prepared.

But no matter how well they prepared, they wouldn't have prepared a rope, would they? Did they think of using a car to intercept them?

"Hang up the hook." The bald man lowered his voice and pointed to the rear bumper of Qin Hao's car.

The two henchmen moved swiftly, the sound of chains scraping together particularly jarring in the alley.

Qin Hao sat in the driver's seat, coldly watching everything through the rearview mirror, his fingers lightly tapping on the handbrake lever.

"Where do you want to take me?"

He suddenly spoke, his voice tinged with mockery, "Was the location Sofia chose for dumping the body discreet enough?"

To be honest, Qin Hao is not in a hurry at all. As long as he can buy time, he will be rescued.

The bald man's face darkened. He didn't reply, but instead yelled at his men, "Hurry up!"

The moment the hook clicked shut, Qin Hao abruptly pulled up the handbrake, and the handbrake indicator light on the dashboard suddenly lit up.

He even deliberately shifted the gear to Park, making a slight clicking sound as the gears engaged.

This means that this farce is coming to an end.

Although a tow rope can be used to tow a vehicle, if the handbrake is engaged, the worst that can happen is that both vehicles will suffer some wear and tear.

Ultimately, they were unable to drag Qin Hao away.

However, the bald man had more vehicles, so changing cars would be a viable option. But by then, the people from the Gold Price Bureau would have already arrived.

The SUV engine roared to life, its tires grinding against the ground as it moved forward.

Whoosh!
The rope tightened instantly, making a creaking sound.

Qin Hao's car didn't budge. The rear bumper was slightly deformed by the pulling, but it remained rooted to the spot.

"What's going on?!" the bald man roared, slamming his fist on the steering wheel.

"Boss, he's pulled the handbrake!" The subordinate in the passenger seat poked his head out, sweating profusely, and couldn't help but shout, "If we tow it by force, our car will be totaled too!"

The wind from the alley entrance whipped up dust as it blew in. Qin Hao secretly rolled down the car window, a cigarette dangling from his lips, and chuckled as he looked outside, "Want to give it a try? My bumper is original, it's really sturdy."

My phone vibrated on the center console. Charlie sent me a message: "The live broadcast truck will be here in three minutes, boss."

The bald man was furious at Qin Hao's nonchalant attitude.

He knew he couldn't afford to waste any more time. If they were caught on camera by the live-streaming truck, not only would they fail to complete their mission, but they would also be facing life imprisonment.

Most importantly, it will also involve Sofia and their financial backers.

"Withdraw the hooks!" he ordered through gritted teeth. "Follow me and we'll circle around to the back alley and ambush him!"

His men hurriedly untied the ropes, making a clanging sound as metal struck metal.

Watching their flustered movements, Qin Hao calmly stubbed out his cigarette and turned the steering wheel halfway around.

As soon as the SUV hurriedly turned into the back alley, he chuckled, shifted gears, released the handbrake, and the car shot off like an arrow.

In the rearview mirror, the entrance to the back alley got smaller and smaller, and was soon swallowed up by the traffic.

"Trying to play dirty tricks?" He scoffed. "You're still too green."

The bald man and his men slammed on the gas and sped out of the back alley; Qin Hao's car was no longer visible in the rearview mirror.

The subordinate in the passenger seat scratched his head anxiously and asked, "Boss, where did this kid run off to?"

Baldy felt like he'd been tricked, and slammed his fist on the steering wheel, yelling, "Where else can we go? We're definitely going back to his hotel!"

He'd just clashed with Sofia; he definitely needed to go back and figure out a strategy.

He gritted his teeth, turned the steering wheel, and headed straight for the hotel where Qin Hao was staying.

As soon as the car stopped at the entrance, four burly men got out, clutching their weapons, and huddled behind the porch pillars, staring at the glass revolving door to see when Qin Hao would arrive.

The bald man took out his phone to check the time. There were at most ten minutes before the live broadcast truck arrived at the alley. As long as he could block Qin Hao here and seize the document that would give him leverage, he would have succeeded halfway.

"Look carefully, he's wearing a black suit, tall, don't put the wrong person here."

The bald man lowered his voice and gave instructions, his eyes fixed on the people coming in and out of the door.

But after waiting for a full quarter of an hour, the revolving door spun round and round, and not only did Qin Hao not appear, but even someone with a similar build did not appear.

The subordinate couldn't help but mutter, "Boss, what if he...?"

"Shut up! Don't say such unlucky things!"

The bald man interrupted him, his temple veins throbbing. He took a deep breath, suppressing his anger, and said, "Wait five more minutes, he'll definitely come back for his things!"

Just then, his phone vibrated in his pocket. It was a text message from an unknown number containing only a photo.

In the photo, Qin Hao is standing outside the ornate iron gate of a French-style villa, a cigarette between his fingers, giving a half-smile to the camera.

The bald man recognized the rose wall in the background at a glance.

That was Sophia's private residence in the suburbs, which he had visited several times before.

"Hold!"

The bald man slammed his phone to the ground, the screen instantly shattering into a spiderweb pattern. He couldn't help but curse, "That son of a bitch!"

Little did he know that Qin Hao had no intention of returning to the hotel to deal with the situation; the moment he escaped from the alley, he turned around immediately.

That's what you call a real strategy.

Moreover, Qin Hao really didn't want to settle his score later.

When he entered Sofia's private residence into the navigation, he even smiled at the screen.

Since the other party has laid all their cards on the table, it would be too disrespectful of him not to pay them a visit in person.

Charlie had already found out Sophia's real address.

The villa's iron gate slowly opened, and Qin Hao drove the car straight in and parked it next to the fountain.

The butler-like man was about to step forward to ask questions when he was stopped by a look from him.

"Tell Miss Leclerc that the guests have arrived."

Qin Hao tugged at his suit collar, his tone calm, but his words sent chills down one's spine.

"Tell her to stop hiding. The person I sent to fetch me is probably still waiting for the wind outside the hotel."

In the living room, Sofia was giving instructions in a low voice over the phone. When she heard the housekeeper report back, her fingers tightened suddenly around the receiver.

This guy actually came.

She glanced at the car parked outside the window and said coldly, "Let him in."

After hanging up the phone, she walked to the liquor cabinet, poured herself a glass of whiskey, and exuded elegance, appearing calm and collected, as if she wasn't worried about anything at all.

When Qin Hao pushed the door open, he caught her tilting her head back to drink, her Adam's apple bobbing, revealing a ruthless determination.

This woman is quite sexy, with a wild kind of sexiness—like a thorny rose that dares not be easily touched.

Otherwise, not only will you be badly injured, but more importantly, no one can imagine what you will encounter next.

"Miss Leclerc seems to have a lot of free time." Qin Hao casually closed the door, his voice echoing on the marble floor. "When you sent people to ambush me, didn't you ever imagine I'd come looking for you?"

Sophia put down her wine glass and turned around. The panic from before was gone from her face, replaced by her usual coldness. She said, "Mr. Qin seems to be in a greater hurry than I thought."

"I'm just eager to settle some accounts with you."

Qin Hao walked up to her, the distance between them less than half a meter. "The mineral sample, the Swiss Bank reserves, and those messengers from earlier, it was quite interesting."

"Speaking of which, Miss Leclerc, aren't you going a bit too far?"

"I should be saying that to you. I think you're being too nosy. You want to have everything. Haven't you heard the saying, 'Don't bite off more than you can chew'?"

Sofia's lips curled into a mocking smile.

"Mr. Qin isn't content with just occupying the Katanga gold mine; he even wants to rewrite the rules of the Gold Price Bureau. Who is truly insatiable?"

Qin Hao chuckled softly and raised his hand to brush away non-existent dust.

"It's better to be shady than to have some people try to tamper with the test samples. But what's the reality? They even want to trample on the face of the Geological Society."

He suddenly leaned forward, his voice low and provocative.

"Or is it that you've already used the Leclerc family's reputation to exchange for that reserve fund from Swiss Bank?"

These words struck Sofia like a hammer blow.

Her face darkened, she steadied herself, grabbed a teacup from the table, and smashed it aside.

"Shut up!"
