Chapter 87: Human Face, Beast Heart (2 Updates)

Chapter 87: Human Face, Beast Heart

"Mr. Zhou, what's wrong? Haven't we reached the destination yet? Ms. Zhao instructed me to make sure I deliver you to the destination."

The Zhao family's driver asked, confused.

"Stop the car quickly!" Zhou Lang didn't have time to explain anything to the driver and roared. He estimated that Li Mengxue was in danger and was extremely anxious. After all, he had been intimate with Li Mengxue and still had feelings for her.

"What happened?" The driver, not very quick-witted, kept asking while still not stopping.

Time was tight. If the car Li Mengxue was in went in another direction, he definitely wouldn't be able to catch up. Zhou Lang couldn't wait any longer; he pushed his right palm against the car door beside him!

Bang!

It didn't look like much force was used, but when Zhou Lang struck the door with his palm, a loud noise erupted, and the Mercedes door was blown clean off.

Just as the driver was dumbfounded, terrified, and nearly lost his grip on the steering wheel, Zhou Lang, agile as a leopard, darted out of the passenger seat.

It wasn't just the Zhao family's driver; the pedestrians and other drivers nearby were also startled. They had likely never seen such a bizarre phenomenon in their entire lives.

As Zhou Lang dashed out of the car door into the night, a large truck rushed over from the side. Seeing a figure in front, the truck driver braked in a panic. The truck emitted a sharp screeching sound but still skidded for several meters.

The truck driver thought he had caused an accident and killed someone, but when he looked closely, there was no one in front.

He still wasn't reassured and quickly got out of the car. At this moment, there was no figure in front of his car. He checked the surroundings and the bottom of the car but saw no one.

"What the hell!" The truck driver broke out in a cold sweat, muttered to himself, and then drove away.

Zhou Lang avoided the speeding truck, got on the sidewalk, and started running rapidly.

Although he was running, his speed was faster than the fastest car. Under the night, he was like a wisp of blue smoke. He ran past some pedestrians, but they couldn't detect his existence. One could imagine how fast his speed was. This was the method of a Cultivator; when running at full strength, it was like flying, leaving those who were still stuck at the martial arts Realm far behind.

The Zhao family's driver almost caused an accident; his hand trembled, and the car almost hit the vehicle next to it.

"No wonder even Old Zhao is so respectful to this Zhou Lang; his strength is truly terrifying!" Having regained his composure, the Zhao family driver quickly parked the car on the side of the road, checked the condition of the vehicle, and went to find a place to fix it.

A few minutes later, Li Zhigang's BMW passed by the Lovers Bar but didn't stop; it continued driving forward. This guy looked like a gentleman on the outside, but in reality, he was a person with a human face and a beast's heart.

When he helped Li Mengxue into the car, she was already unconscious and had basically lost consciousness because the drug he had put in her drink earlier was a type of sedative that would make someone fall asleep within ten minutes or so.

This guy was quite bold. Seeing that Li Mengxue had lost consciousness, he pinched her chin, pried open her mouth, and fed her another type of drug.

Zhou Lang, from inside the car, saw exactly this scene, so he knew Li Mengxue was in trouble. He exited the car violently and tracked the car Li Mengxue was in to see what exactly happened.

After taking this drug, a person would wake up within half an hour, and their desires in a certain aspect would be particularly strong. It was an aphrodisiac; even the most chaste woman who took this drug would become as wanton as the female lead in an island nation's adult film.

Ordinary people wouldn't dare do such a thing, but Li Zhigang, relying on having some money, succeeded repeatedly. After some women were violated by him using this method, even if they wanted to call the police afterward, he would use hundreds of thousands to shut their mouths and settle the matter.

Zhou Lang tracked Li Zhigang's BMW for about ten minutes before the car drove into a five-star hotel called Linyinju.

He naturally followed inside quietly.

However, he did not directly stop Li Zhigang. Currently, he didn't know the relationship between Li Mengxue and Li Zhigang, so it wasn't good to act rashly.

If Li Zhigang was Li Mengxue's new boyfriend and Li Mengxue was indeed drunk and needed to rest, if he stopped Li Zhigang at this time, he might be causing trouble and would arouse Li Mengxue's disgust and resentment.

So he decided to get to the bottom of the matter. Anyway, he was now a powerful figure of his generation, and in mundane society, he could handle anything with ease.

After Li Zhigang opened a room and entered the elevator, Zhou Lang walked to the hotel's service front desk.

"Sir, what service do you need?" The female receptionist stood up from behind the counter and asked Zhou Lang politely. The service at a five-star hotel was just different.

"Open a room for me, right next to the couple that just came in." Zhou Lang took out his bank card.

If it were before, he wouldn't have the money to stay in this five-star hotel. Last time, to buy clothes and daily necessities for the Artifact Spirit Xiao Xi, he had taken a piece of jade that wasn't of the highest quality from the ancestral copper coin and sold it for fifty thousand yuan. Now he still had over thirty thousand left. He wasn't short of money now; his ancestors had left behind a great deal of jade. Those pieces of medium-to-high quality jade weren't suitable for setting up arrays, but after selling them, they could fetch quite a bit of money.

"Sir, our hotel protects customer privacy. I can open another room for you." The receptionist understood that Zhou Lang was tracking Li Mengxue and Li Zhigang, so she immediately said, politely declining Zhou Lang's request.

"If you do as I say, this money is yours." Zhou Lang directly took out two thousand yuan and placed it in front of the female receptionist.

"I will register you for check-in immediately." The female receptionist's eyes changed immediately upon seeing the stack of money. She quickly put the money away and said to Zhou Lang.

Li Zhigang opened room 807, and Zhou Lang opened room 808. In this day and age, there really were very few things that couldn't be done with money.

"Sir, Boss Li Zhigang has an extraordinary relationship with our boss. You'd better not cause any trouble here, otherwise, you'll be in big trouble."

Seeing that no one was around, the female receptionist kindly gave a reminder when handing the room card to Zhou Lang. Of course, she was also thinking of herself, not wanting any real trouble to break out and get her implicated.

"Thanks for the reminder, miss. To tell you the truth, I'm a private investigator. I don't do anything illegal or disorderly; I'm just helping someone find out who that woman is with. That woman's boyfriend is no simple character either. Of course, the clash of titans is their business, and it has nothing to do with me, so you can rest assured."

Zhou Lang smiled. His thinking was very agile; from the female receptionist's words, he immediately knew that the man helping Li Mengxue check in was named Li Zhigang.

With him saying that, the female receptionist felt relieved.

Just as Li Zhigang helped Li Mengxue into room 807, Zhou Lang arrived at room 808.

Zhou Lang did not act rashly but took out a Perspective Talisman to monitor the movements in the room across the hall. With the Perspective Talisman in hand, plus his own amazing hearing, he could see what was happening in the room across the hall as if he were watching a live broadcast.

Inside room 807, Li Zhigang had already placed the unconscious Li Mengxue on the large bed.

Li Mengxue was still dressed in her OL attire today, with a snow-white shirt on top, a black hip-hugging miniskirt on the bottom, and black silk stockings with high heels, mature and sexy.

"Li Mengxue, tonight, I'm going to thoroughly enjoy you." Li Zhigang laughed lewdly, completely unaware that right next door, a super powerhouse was monitoring him!
