The Baby I Lost Is Actually with My Ex-Husband!-Chapter 142 - Why did you lie to me

Chapter 142: Chapter 142 Why did you lie to me?

Chapter 142 -142 Why did you lie to me?

Huo Tingdong’s gaze still lingered on Lu Li.

It seemed like he couldn’t stand up anymore.

Huo Tingdong had struck hard just now.

But if Lu Li dared to stand up again, Huo Tingdong would continue to attack, until Lu Li could no longer stand.

This was the conquest desire ingrained in his bones, the instinct for domination.

Lin Qi didn’t understand him at all.

In the business world, with overt and covert struggles, he always dealt with his rivals harshly; he had always believed in a principle that being merciful to an enemy was tantamount to digging one’s own grave—outside of business, he still operated with the same mindset.

Only after confirming that Lu Li was no longer capable of standing up did Huo Tingdong retract his gaze, grab Lin Qi’s hand, and turn to walk towards the door.

Mo Ke finally let out a sigh of relief and immediately walked towards Lu Li.

Lu Li felt dizzy and had double vision. He raised his head and saw Huo Tingdong’s long legs leaving; he still wanted to stand up.

Mo Ke hurriedly held him down, “Young Master Lu, don’t be so stubborn…”

After spending so many years by Huo Tingdong’s side, no one understood Huo Tingdong better than he did. With Huo Tingdong’s prowess, Lu Li, a “weak scholar,” couldn’t stand up to much beating.

After all…

Huo Tingdong was half a trained fighter.

Outside the door.

Huo Tingdong held Lin Qi’s hand and strode towards the car.

Lin Qi staggered; his strides were long and his steps were big, making it hard for her to keep up.

“Huo Tingdong… slow down…”

Huo Tingdong yanked her hand, wrapping his arm around her shoulder, practically half-lifting her towards the car.

At the intersection, his Maybach was stopped for parking overtime, surrounded by several traffic policemen.

Seeing Huo Tingdong approaching, one of the traffic policemen said, “Is this your car?”

Huo Tingdong stepped forward, towering over the policeman which forced the officer to look up at him.

Huo Tingdong coldly said, “My car, what about it?”

The policeman swallowed nervously, returning to a serious tone, “You can’t park here; you’ve violated traffic rules. We’ll fine you and give you demerit points as a warning…”

Huo Tingdong asked, “Have you written the ticket?”

The policeman: “…” This man’s presence was terrifying, his gaze seemed like it could kill.

He had written the ticket and handed it to Huo Tingdong: “You are to deal with this within fifteen days…”

Huo Tingdong took the ticket, ignoring him, led Lin Qi to the passenger side, opened the door, and gently pushed her inside.

You could tell that he was trying to control himself; the muscles in his arms were tensed as Lin Qi sat in the passenger seat and he bent down to fasten her seatbelt.

Lin Qi’s breathing halted from fright.

She had never seen Huo Tingdong with such a scary expression, to the point where she felt he was becoming somewhat unrecognizable: “Huo Tingdong… you’re scaring me…”

“Scared?” Huo Tingdong narrowed his eyes, “What are you afraid of?”

Lin Qi said, “Your expression is frightening…”

Huo Tingdong said, “You are not the same as him.”

Lin Qi’s eyes widened in shock.

Huo Tingdong said, “I won’t use the methods I use against him on you.” After speaking, he closed the car door and returned to the driver’s seat.

The policemen instinctively took a step back, watching Huo Tingdong get into the car and drive away with a press on the accelerator, quickly disappearing.

The car switched to sport mode, instantly becoming a performance beast, the engine roaring.

One of the policemen reacted, “He’s going too fast, that’s speeding!!”

As the words fell, the car had already shot a hundred meters away!

…

On the road, the Maybach sped along, bypassing the city center and heading towards the intercity highway.

Huo Tingdong slammed on the gas, gripping the steering wheel tightly, drifting through several turns.

The speed soared from eighty to a hundred and eighty miles per hour, seriously speeding.

Lin Qi’s breath caught as she watched the tachometer needle climb with increasing dread, and the howling wind outside the window soon made the neon lights and noise of the city seem a thousand miles away.

During a few accelerated turns, she could no longer control herself, and almost screamed, but could only produce a few intermittent sounds, “Ah… ah…”

It felt as though an invisible hand was tightly blocking her throat, scared but daring not to make a sound, holding her breath and concentrating, her breath and heartbeat nearly stopping!

Fast!

Too fast!

Lin Qi closed her eyes, hearing only the deafening engine roar near her ears, and in an instant, the revs hit seven thousand!

“Huo Tingdong… slower… drive slower…”

Another sharp curve.

Huo Tingdong skillfully steered one-handed; Lin Qi kept her eyes tightly closed, not daring to look out the window. However, a strong centrifugal force made her feel as if she was being pulled back and forth by two hands.

Her insides felt as if they were being turned upside down.

Lin Qi opened her eyes fearfully and saw through the rearview mirror that the tail lights were only a few centimeters from the guardrail.

Beyond the guardrail was a tall moat, and if anything went wrong, the car would fly off the cliff, resulting in certain death for both the car and the passengers.

“Slow… slow down…” Her thoughts were already in turmoil.

But Huo Tingdong still stared dead ahead.

He felt the malice within him with nowhere to vent, the throttle already floored.

Speed limit signs flashed by continuously, and Huo Tingdong again sped up, steering the car out of the ramp onto the mountain road.

The steep mountain road, despite being paved with asphalt, undulated sharply, and combined with the excessive speed, was more thrilling than a roller coaster.

Lin Qi felt her heart rising to her throat as if her soul was about to scatter.

“Whoo-whoo-Huo Tingdong!!” Lin Qi gripped the seatbelt tightly, crying out in shock, “Too fast… too fast, I’m scared…”

He was angry.

But she didn’t understand what he was angry about!

Lin Qi could no longer bear it: “Have you gone mad? Driving this fast… we will have an accident!”

Huo Tingdong didn’t even glance at her, continuing to look straight ahead, “Are you worried about me?”

Lin Qi swallowed nervously, hearing only the piercing sound of tire skidding; she looked at the rearview mirror, where the rear wheels generated huge friction with the ground, raising blue smoke.

“I’m scared…” Lin Qi said, “I’m really scared…”

Huo Tingdong said, “Why did you lie to me?”

He hated being lied to the most.

Lin Qi said, “I didn’t lie to you…”

Huo Tingdong said, “You said you went out to meet friends, but what happened? Why did you go see him?”

Lin Qi said, “I just see him as a friend…” Realizing his reaction was as though he was jealous, she exclaimed, letting go of all reservations, shouting, “I didn’t lie to you! I swear, I didn’t lie to you… I really just see him as a friend…”

Huo Tingdong slightly furrowed his brow, the shoe on the gas pedal lifting a little.

The car’s speed gradually slowed down.

Lin Qi was still shaken, and seeing the car slow down, she hurriedly tried to explain, “Huo Tingdong… slow down even more, I have something to say to you…”
