Reborn as a prince, achieve the pinnacle of power

Time seemed to have stood still.

One second, two seconds, three seconds passed... The whole office was dead silent, so quiet that you could hear a pin drop.

Huang Rong couldn't help but look up at Bai Xiaolu, only to see that the corners of her lips, which were originally tense, began to slowly curl up, like a flower quietly blooming in spring, gradually outlining an extremely beautiful arc.

That smile was both sarcastic and contained some deep meaning, which made Huang Rong's heart shudder.

Bai Xiaolu's voice was cold and powerful: "Since Magistrate Huang has made such a promise, I have nothing to say."

After a slight pause, she looked at the hotel general manager standing by the door and said coldly, "Gong Shiren, show the guest out."

"Thank you, Mr. Bai, for your kindness."

Huang Rong's expression lit up with joy, and he quickly stood up, bowed to Bai Xiaolu, and without staying any longer, turned around and left.

The door closed, and Jiang Wan'er asked impatiently, "Sister Xiaolu, let's forget about this?"

"You beat someone up, and the prefect apologized to you personally. What else do you want?"

Before Bai Xiaolu could speak, Zhang Hao said, "Jiang Wan'er, you are not going to take away his official hat just because of your little thing, right? Don't forget that Huang Rong is still a fourth-rank official."

"Did I mean that?"

Jiang Wan'er rolled her eyes at Zhang Hao feeling a little guilty and muttered.

"Wan'er, Zhang Hao is right."

Xiaojun, who had been silent the whole time, like an invisible person, pulled her best friend's hand and said softly, "In this matter, we hit people, which was also inappropriate. It is very satisfactory to be able to resolve it like this."

Li Yitong raised his eyes and winked at Bai Xiaolu, then turned his head to Zhang Hao and said, "Xiaohao, it's getting late. You should arrange for Wan'er and Xiaojun. Xiaolu and I are also ready to go back."

"Sister Yitong, Sister Xiaolu, can we exchange contact information?"

When Jiang Wan'er heard what Li Yitong said, she quickly stepped forward and held the hands of Bai Xiaolu and Li Yitong, her eyes full of reluctance: "Thank you so much for what happened today. If you weren't here, I would have to call my dad, and I wouldn't be able to escape a scolding then."

"Wan'er, we are all family from now on, how could I let you be bullied?"

Bai Xiaolu reached out and patted Jiang Wan'er's hand, took out his cell phone with a smile, and exchanged contact information with Jiang Wan'er.

"Yes, you can come and play with us when you return to the capital."

Li Yitong also took out his mobile phone and said with a smile.

"Mmm Good."

After getting the contact information of Bai Xiaolu and Li Yitong, Jiang Wan'er nodded repeatedly, her eyes curved into crescent shapes, and she looked happy: "Sister Xiaolu, Sister Yitong, I will definitely come to play with you."

"Okay, then, it's settled."

Bai Xiaolu laughed heartily.

After Zhang Hao and the other two said goodbye, Li Yitong picked up the freshly boiled hot water and poured it into the teapot... and then poured the tea into the two people's teacups.

"Xiaolu, what are you planning?"

Li Yitong placed the teacup on Bai Xiaolu's table, looked up and asked.

"What else can we do? As Zhang Hao said, he is still a local lord after all. His last words and deeds were impeccable. If we continue to hold on to him, we will be in the wrong."

Bai Xiaolu picked up the teacup, opened her red lips slightly, took a sip, and looked through the steaming mist with a hint of helplessness.

"Xiaolu, there are powerful second-generations like this everywhere."

Li Yitong picked up the teacup, stared at the amber tea in the cup, slowly raised his eyes, and said softly: "After all, we are also vested interests. At least this time we are teaching them a lesson. There is no need to take it to heart, don't you think?"

"Well, this is the only way to comfort myself."

Bai Xiaolu raised her little hand, drank the tea in the cup in one gulp, and stood up: "Sister, let's go find Yuchen."

"it is good."

Li Yitong smiled and put down the teacup in his hand.

……

"Xiaolu, are you sure you're going to drive yourself?"

In the hotel's underground garage, Young Master Chu saw Bai Xiaolu sitting in the driver's seat and confirmed it once again.

"Yuchen, just let Xiaolu drive. He's a pretty good driver."

Li Yitong stretched out her hand to hold Master Chu's arm, blinked her beautiful eyes, and whispered in his ear: "Xiaolu is still a little upset, wait for her to start for a while, then you can change people."

Young Master Chu frowned slightly, curled his lips, and reached out to ruffle Li Yitong's hair: "Just spoil her."

"Okay, just sit in the passenger seat and watch."

Li Yitong smiled, pushed Mr. Chu, and motioned him to get in the car.

Chu Yuchen couldn't persuade his two wives to join forces, so he sighed helplessly and sat in the passenger seat as he was told, fastening his seat belt tightly. While observing Bai Xiaolu's condition, he was always ready to take over the driving task to ensure driving safety.

"Sister Yitong, please sit down. Let's start our journey."

Bai Xiaolu raised the corner of his mouth slightly, glanced at Mr. Chu proudly, started the Maybach, and slowly left the underground parking lot.

Young Master Chu carefully observed the road for a while and found that Bai Xiaolu was quite self-aware. His speed was not fast, no more than 50 yards, and he was still stable when sitting.

Outside the car window, the night falls and the neon lights flicker, adding a bit of mystery to the night scene of the city.

Bai Xiaolu drove the Maybach away from the city...

The coastal highway late at night presents a completely different look, unlike the busyness and noise during the day.

The sea breeze blows gently, bringing bursts of coolness, accompanied by the sound of sea water lapping against the shore. The sea level in the distance merges with the skyline, like an endless silver ribbon extending to the end of the world.

Traffic was sparse, and occasionally a car headlight would cut through the darkness, like a meteor crossing the night sky, leaving a trail of light.

The Maybach drove smoothly along this coastline that almost belonged exclusively to them. The slight sound of the tires rubbing against the road intertwined with the sound of the waves to form a long nocturne.

Bai Xiaolu focused on the road ahead, occasionally glancing sideways at the sea view beside him, and the depressed feeling in his heart gradually disappeared.

Inside the car, the speakers were playing a melodious tune. Bai Xiaolu and Li Yitong were humming softly. Everything seemed so beautiful.

suddenly.

"Boss Chu, please pay attention. A team of sports cars is approaching us at high speed. Do we need to intercept them?"

Xu Zhengyang's voice came from the intercom. Bai Xiaolu and Chu Yuchen exchanged a puzzled look, and then Bai Xiaolu slowed down the car to observe the situation.

Soon, several supercars came running like cheetahs, their speed was so fast that it was astonishing. They were like ghosts in the dark night on the coastal highway, quickly approaching the convoy.
