Chapter 1206: Boss Zhou’s Identity in 1205
“Don’t worry, I really am fine,” Tan Rou said with a smile, “You can ask Xiao Mo, he’s right beside me.”
Xiao Mo said very nervously, “Yes, parent, I… we’re all fine, the one who is hurt is Miss Liang Lu.”
Zhuang Liu still didn’t feel reassured, “You wait for me, I’ll be there immediately.”
Tan Rou knew Zhuang Liu was very concerned, so she said, “Okay, but drive slowly, don’t hurry, I really am fine.”
Although Tan Rou told Zhuang Liu to drive slowly, he still rushed over as fast as he could. Only after seeing Tan Rou was unharmed did he feel relieved.
Then he turned his attention to the person on the ground, “Is he the one who caused the car accident?”
Tan Rou said, “Yes, he claimed that he stepped on the brakes because he got dizzy suddenly, but judging by his attitude when he spoke, someone must be instructing him from behind to cause the car accident. We just don’t know if his target was me or Liang Lu.”
If it was targeted at Liang Lu, Zhuang Liu might look into it out of friendship for Liang Lu, but if the mastermind behind this was targeting Tan Rou, then Zhuang Liu would definitely not let them get away with it.
Tan Rou said, “When you have time, look into the origins of this car first, I suspect it’s a scrapped vehicle.”
Zhuang Liu immediately took photos and made phone calls, and soon got a lead on the car. He showed the photos he obtained to Tan Rou, “The car is indeed a scrap, and it has been in multiple accidents before. More importantly, this man is the owner of the car, but his driver’s license has already been revoked.”
“If it’s a scrapped car, why would it appear on the street?” asked Tan Rou, “How is his family situation?”
Zhuang Liu said, “His family’s situation is average. He used to make a living by driving and transporting goods for people when the car was still running. After it was in an accident, he couldn’t drive anymore and now stays at home as an unemployed person, earning money with odd jobs.”
Zhuang Liu, based on the car, found a lot of clues. “This car was originally in a scrapyard, but three days ago, someone bought it.”
Tan Rou asked, “Who bought it?”
“The purchase was made with cash,” Zhuang Liu said. “It seems this person is targeting Liang Lu.” He sighed in relief.
But Tan Rou said, “Even though this person was targeting Liang Lu, we still can’t relax our guard. We have to find this person.”
As they were talking, Zhuang Liu’s phone received another message. He checked it and then said, “The people I arranged have found that boss surnamed Zhou in Huayuan Building. You should have heard his name too. Zhou Xing, he is also a director, made quite a few movies a few years ago and achieved some success, but his recent works have failed to take off. None of his newer movies have been popular.”
Tan Rou countered, “Just because his movies aren’t famous, does he need to harm others?”
“Tan Rou, you never know what the motives of those who harm others are,” Zhuang Liu said. “Sometimes they harm others for money, sometimes for fame and fortune, and sometimes they harm just because the other party gave them a nasty look on the street.”
Tan Rou, unable to understand, said, “We should first take Liang Lu to the hospital. Tell your men to keep an eye on this boss Zhou, so he doesn’t get wind of it and run. Actually, there’s something I don’t understand. Isn’t he afraid of his actions being exposed?”
“They say that impulse is the devil; I think he must have been too impulsive,” Zhuang Liu said. “This year he also made a new movie, and its release date was the same as Liang Lu’s movie. Liang Lu’s movie was widely praised, but his multimillion-dollar investment attracted no audience. Isn’t that ironic?”
“There are many people with psychological issues in the entertainment industry. They are not as glamorous as they appear on the big screen. In the shadows, they harbor many dark thoughts,” Zhuang Liu warned. “You should stay away from them in the future, to avoid trouble for yourself.”
Tan Rou looked at Liang Lu, who was lying unconscious on the ground, “I believe Liang Lu isn’t that kind of person.”
Zhuang Liu didn’t agree with her directly but instead said, “I respect your opinion, but if anyone hurts you, I won’t let them off easily either.”
Similarly, Tan Rou also respected Zhuang Liu’s thoughts, “Mm, I feel safe with you protecting me.”
Although Tan Rou didn’t need protection, in a loving relationship, one can choose to rely on the other a bit more.
