Chapter 1253: Chapter 1253: We’ll Wait Right Here

The car was moving extremely slowly, so much so that the man could still sit steadily on the hood.

But if Xiao Qiu were to speed up, the man would surely fall off the car and get hurt.

This left Xiao Qiu afraid to accelerate, driving forward slowly.

At this rate, they wouldn’t reach Changping by this afternoon.

"Get out of the car! You hit someone! Compensate us!" The person outside kept banging on the car window.

The person sitting on the hood was also knocking on the window, blocking Xiao Qiu’s view in the process.

Xiao Qiu picked up the phone, dialed 110, and showed it to the person on the hood: "If you don’t leave, I’ll call the police!"

Since he didn’t dare open the window, he wasn’t sure if they could hear him.

But as long as they saw the number 110, they should know what he intended to do.

Unexpectedly, the person’s knocking only paused slightly, without any fear, and they started banging on the window again.

The banging sounds pounded on Ye Fei’s heart.

Ye Fei held the little one tightly.

These people didn’t seem like ordinary scammers trying to extort money.

Typical scammers aim to swindle money, maybe a bit unreasonable, but they wouldn’t be this reckless.

They weren’t afraid of anything, standing in front of the car waiting to be hit, or even climbing onto the hood.

Even the threat of calling the police didn’t scare them.

It was clear these people had a target, a purpose, and were organized.

Earlier, when the man who crashed into them realized things weren’t going well, suddenly so many people appeared from the sidelines; clearly, they had prepared in advance.

Fortunately, the other side had no weapons, only using their hands to bang. It was just loud.

Qiu Xingwen hadn’t called the police initially, hoping to resolve things privately when Zhao Gushen arrived.

But seeing the current situation, it would take some time for Zhao Gushen to arrive, so he needed to get Ye Fei to Changping Academy first.

So, Qiu Xingwen quickly reported the incident, providing his license plate to the police for immediate location tracking.

As soon as Qiu Xingwen put down the phone, he saw someone on the opposing side pull out a baseball bat and swing it at the windshield in front.

Ye Fei instinctively protected the little one’s head, pressing his face tightly into her embrace, while hunching over and turning her body to shield the child completely.

Someone was smashing the front glass, and soon they’d try hitting the side windows.

Ye Fei was worried that shattered glass might hurt the little one.

More than that.

What if those people reached through the broken glass and attempted to pull them out?

At least Ye Fei could prevent them from harming the kid.

The little one gritted his teeth hard, not letting himself make a sound.

At this point, since he couldn’t help, the least he could do was not add to their troubles.

Someone not screaming or causing a commotion is more unsettling.

Still, there was no expected scene of shattering glass flying around.

Ye Fei, surprised, looked over and found the front windshield perfectly intact.

The baseball bat repeatedly struck the windshield, producing loud banging sounds.

Yet the glass remained unharmed.

Even so, the sheer noise was terrifying enough.

Ye Fei’s heart trembled with each sound.

Qiu Xingwen turned back to Ye Fei, saying, "Madam, don’t worry. This car was modified by the Wen Family; no one can break the glass."

Qiu Xingwen’s gaze became sharp: "If necessary, I’ll drive right through them!"

"Don’t do anything rash," Ye Fei immediately replied. "If you hit someone and cause any harm, you’ll have to pay the price. Don’t get yourself in trouble because of these people."

"Otherwise, let me distract them first," Qiu Xingwen thought for a moment, then said. "I can handle three or four of them myself. The remaining six I should also be able to keep busy."

At most, I’d get hit a few times, but it’s enough to keep them occupied for a short time.

"When the time comes, you quickly get to the driver’s seat," Qiu Xingwen instructed. "But don’t get out of the car; just move over inside."

Since Ye Fei is slim, it should be fine.

"Then, you drive away with Xiao Mo; I can stay here and wait for the President to arrive," Qiu Xingwen said.

"I won’t participate in the competition. I’ll call the advisors and have them replace me," Ye Fei said. "It’s just a competition; it’s nothing. Don’t worry about it."

"Since the car was modified by the Wen Family, they won’t be able to leave even a scratch on it, no matter how much they try," Ye Fei said. "Let’s just wait here. Wait for the police and Gu Shen to come."

"They can’t possibly lift the entire car and leave, right?" Ye Fei said coldly. "Even if they push, it won’t go very fast."

"But..." Qiu Xingwen hesitated.

"No buts. I can’t leave you here by yourself. What if something happens?" Ye Fei said. "Since the car is secure, let’s just stay here."

"The competition can be skipped. Compared to personal safety, the competition is nothing," Ye Fei said.

Seeing Ye Fei’s determination, Qiu Xingwen was moved.

But following Ye Fei’s reminder, he quickly pressed the parking brake.

Now, even if those people decided to push the car, they couldn’t move it.

Since the car windows are secure, Ye Fei sat upright but still kept Xiao Mo protected in her arms.

She looked down and asked Xiao Mo, "Are you scared?"

"No!" The little one responded brightly, "They can’t get in, so I’m not scared."

The little one used his arms to make a big circle within Ye Fei’s embrace: "Now these two cars feel like a small fortress."

Although the little one acted as if he wasn’t afraid at all,

by holding him, Ye Fei could still sense the tension in his body.

She knew he was actually scared inside.

He just didn’t want to worry them, so he pretended not to be afraid.

Ye Fei hugged him tightly with aching tenderness.

All she could do was hold him like this to provide some sense of safety.

"Don’t be afraid; no matter what happens, I’ll be with you," Ye Fei kissed Xiao Mo’s forehead.

"Okay." The little one nodded.

Zhao Gushen heard their conversation clearly over the phone and became even more anxious.

Finally out of the city, with fewer cars on the road, Zhao Gushen couldn’t worry about speeding anymore, and he floored it.

The car behind followed closely.

"Xiao Qiu, my phone is keeping in contact with Gu Shen. Use your phone to call Teacher Guo Wenbo," Ye Fei said.

"Alright." Xiao Qiu didn’t have Guo Wenbo’s number, so Ye Fei pulled up her contact list.

She didn’t hang up on her call with Zhao Gushen, just brought the main screen to the front, not affecting their conversation.

After finding Guo Wenbo’s phone number, Ye Fei used Qiu Xingwen’s phone to call Guo Wenbo.

It was already 9 o’clock now.

Changping had specifically cleared a large practice room for the competition.
