Financial freedom starts from graduation

Chapter 476 "Subway Tracking Incident"

Speaking of which, Zhou Wang hasn't taken the subway for a long time.

...Actually, it was not necessary to take the subway, but considering that if a train was transferred from the city, it would take nearly an hour to wait, it would be better to take the subway directly back, so Zhou Wang went directly to the subway station.

For Zhou Wang, occasionally choosing public transportation actually gives him a sense of anticipation, similar to the feeling of "experiencing life".

It was only when he bought the subway ticket and entered the station that Zhou Wang realized that he was a little behind the times. After all, the last time he took the subway was several years ago. In today's era, you only need to open Alipay and scan the QR code to get everything done. There is no need to buy any physical tickets.

Zhou Wang took Metro Line 12, getting on from Pudong Airport Station and going all the way to Nanjing East Road Station. There were a total of stops along the way, and it would conservatively be an hour, but it was not much slower than driving, so Zhou Wang could still accept it.

Without the crowds of people following him, Zhou Wang felt a little uncomfortable at first, but as he entered the subway car, he gradually had some different feelings.

There were neither too many nor too few passengers at the airport station. Zhou Wang had a seat at the beginning, but after a few stops, as more and more passengers got on the bus, Zhou Wang took the initiative to give up his seat to a pregnant woman.

Standing in the corner, Zhou Wang did not choose to play with his mobile phone, but leaned against the wall silently, feeling this most real world.

He saw an elderly couple cuddling together and whispering to each other, a group of college students chattering about where to go karaoke that night, tired office workers leaning against the wall with their eyes closed like himself, and a young man pretending to check his phone but actually following a beautiful lady in the car...

At this moment, Zhou Wang realized that even without those halos, he actually didn't have that many audiences.

Although he can still attract the attention of some girls because of his outstanding appearance and temperament, most people live in their own lives, and only they themselves are their "protagonists".

Zhou Wang, who had become accustomed to living in the spotlight, actually enjoyed the present moment quite a bit. It was as if he had become one of the mediocre people again and experienced a rare kind of tranquility hidden in the ordinary.

It was just the vibrating cell phone that quickly brought him back to his own "reality".

"Mr. Zhou, that... Miss Jiang saw everything just now, and she seems very angry now... Please don't tell her that this is what I said to you, please, please (pitiful.gif)"

Looking at the message sent by Xu Lingyue on WeChat, Zhou Wang couldn't help but feel a headache.

He had just seen that when Ding Yi and Xia Xiwei were arguing, it was Xiao Wang who called to remind him that Jiang Qingkui had also "quietly" returned...

Damn, what a mess!

Ding Yi and Xia Xiwei alone are enough to overwhelm Zhou Wang, and if Jiang Qingkui is added to the mix, it will simply be a mess.

Zhou Wang didn't know what to do, it seemed like he could only leave it alone...

After all, although he escaped temporarily, he could only escape for a while, not forever.

The three women will meet again at the banquet in the evening, and who knows what kind of trouble will happen then.

Zhou Wang said he was very tired...

But think about it from another angle. No matter whether it is Ding Yi, Xia Xiwei or Jiang Qingkui, they are all rare beauties in the world. Ordinary people would be dreaming of owning one of them. Now, the three women are actually "vying for jealousy" for him in disguise, which seems to be a kind of happy trouble.

"I'm still awesome."

After thinking about it in this Ah Q spirit, Zhou Wang couldn't help but laugh again.

Ding Dong!

At this time, Zhou Wang's cell phone rang again.

He thought it was still a message from Xu Lingyue, but when he looked down, Zhou Wang couldn't help but raise his eyebrows.

The person who sent him the message turned out to be his bodyguard Gao Xing.

Zhou Wang entered the subway, and Gao Xing, who was responsible for protecting his safety, of course followed him, but Zhou Wang didn't see him.

But Zhou Wang had already gotten used to his "appearances and disappearances" and thought it was good this way. He didn't have to feel uncomfortable no matter what he did, so he never asked Gao Xing to appear in his sight.

Gao Xing and Xiao Wang's "one light and one dark" collaboration should be some kind of tacit understanding reached between them, which is equivalent to adding double protection for Zhou Wang.

But Zhou Wang was a little puzzled at this time. If Gao Xing really wanted to say something to him, why didn't he say it directly to his face, but instead sent a message.

After clicking on the content of the message, Zhou Wang's expression suddenly became serious.

"Mr. Zhou, someone is following you. It should have started from the airport. I just confirmed it."

track?

Such a niche word that seemed to only be seen in movies instantly aroused Zhou Wang's vigilance.

The last incident at BSK seemed like a joke, but it was Zhou Wang’s first experience of “assassination”. Now there is another “tracking”. It is hard for Zhou Wang not to have bad associations.

Could it be that woman named Gao Xuelan again?
"who is it?"

While Zhou Wang was sending messages to ask, he raised his eyes and observed the people around him inconspicuously.

The carriage he was in was quite crowded, so Zhou Wang leaned against a corner and glanced around. He still saw the same people: elderly couples, college students, and office workers...

Zhou Wang really couldn't see anything unusual.

"About seven meters to your left, wearing casual clothes, jeans, a baseball cap and sunglasses, holding a book."

Zhou Wang looked down at Gao Xing's description, then adjusted his expression and pretended to look up to the left casually.

With Gao Xing's direct pointing, Zhou Wang quickly found the man this time.

He... no, it's her.

Her face couldn't be seen clearly because of the hat and sunglasses, but from her posture it was obvious that she was a woman. She was mixed in behind the group of chattering college students, holding a book and looking up at the stations on the subway line.

This quick glimpse allowed Zhou Wang to see her pink and white neck. She was undoubtedly a woman, and should not be very old.

No wonder Zhou Wang didn't notice her just now. Firstly, she blended in well with that group of college students. Secondly, her youthful age and gender did not make her look like a "stalker" or a "killer."

"Are you sure it's her? Could you be mistaken?"

After looking at her for a few times, he found that the other party didn't look at him. Zhou Wang really couldn't see what was wrong with her, so he couldn't help but send another message to Gao Xing.

"will not."

Gao Xing simply replied with two words without any reason.

Zhou Wang was speechless for a moment, but he didn't dare to ask any further questions. He believed that Gao Xing had his own judgment. After all, he was a professional. His imagination was based on film and television materials, which must be different from reality.

"What should we do now?"

"Look at you."

"What do you mean?"

"I can take her down at any time."

Zhou Wang understood immediately when he saw Gao Xing's reply. He was only responsible for fighting and protecting Zhou Wang's safety, but how to deal with it specifically, or whether to take down the opponent, and even the timing of the action, required Zhou Wang to weigh it himself.

"Does she have murderous intentions towards me or something? Can you tell that?"

"……cannot."

Gao Xing took several minutes to reply with two words, probably sounding a little speechless.

Zhou Wang was also a little embarrassed. Damn it, he must have read too many novels and even used words like "murderous".

Zhou Wang observed the mysterious woman calmly while thinking in his heart.

I've been following you since the airport...

This means that she must have a certain understanding of him, or has grasped some of his information in advance, and even the dynamics of his life. She is so deliberate, and Zhou Wang really can't think of what other purpose she could have other than "having bad intentions".

Wait, a woman...could she be Gao Xuelan, the remnant of the Xue Group?
But it didn't seem right, because the woman was obviously not very old, while Gao Xuelan was at least forty or fifty years old, and Gao Xing had also seen photos of Gao Xuelan. If it was really her, even if she was in disguise, she should not have escaped Gao Xing's eyes.

Who else could it be?

Zhou Wang turned the thought over in his mind, but couldn't come up with anything.

Forget it, since I can’t figure it out, I might as well just ask her directly.

But if they really wanted to fight, they obviously couldn't do it in public. It was hard to say whether the other party was carrying weapons or something, and it would not be good to harm innocent people. And there was also a one in ten thousand chance that Gao Xing was wrong...

Zhou Wang thought about it and quickly came up with a way to kill two birds with one stone.

He took out his cell phone and sent a message.

……

After disguising herself, Qu Peining looked up at the subway station map, seemingly in a daze. But occasionally, when she was not paying attention, her dark eyes under her sunglasses would drift towards the young man who was leaning lazily in the corner of the carriage seven or eight meters away.

She knew she must be crazy. She was so upset that she came to the Magic City to look for the man named "Zhou Wang"...

When Qu Peining got on the plane in a rush, she felt regretful for a moment.

After all, no matter what, it was Jiang Mo and Zhou Wang’s private matter, and she seemed to have no reason to interfere.

But when he thought of Jiang Mo's silence when he was questioned by him, Qu Peining's eyes became firm again.

Qu Peining is a little cynical because of her own upbringing. She has few friends since she was a child. Jiang Mo is the first and most likely the only one. She can't just watch her fall into the fire pit like this. She must help Jiang Mo while it's still possible...

The first step is to see with one’s own eyes what kind of man Zhou Wang is.

When she saw him at the airport, Qu Peining realized she had come to the right place.

She simply couldn't believe that there was such a scumbag man in the world who could keep meeting three different women in the same place...

What shocked Qu Peining the most was that among these three women, she actually knew or had met two of them.

One is the granddaughter of the old Xia family, and the other is the most recognized talent in the Beijing circle, the apple of the Ding family's eye...

Qu Peining, who has been living in another special circle since she was a teenager, rarely hangs out in the Beijing circle, but she still knows who are the best girls among her peers.

After all, at some point in the past, she was one of the people they often talked about.

In short, when Qu Peining saw Ding Yi and Xia Xiwei actually fighting for the same man in public, she felt that the world was really crazy.

...Or is it because she has been away from it for too long, and the outside world has become distorted to this extent?

In the end, Qu Peining attributed all the reasons to the man named "Zhou Wang".

She didn't know why she followed Zhou Wang in the end, but out of such a strong sense of resentment, she just followed him.

Although she hasn't thought out the whole plan yet, Qu Peining is very confident in herself. She will definitely be able to easily control this young man who looks muscular but is actually just a show-off.

As for the other person's handsome appearance, Qu Peining simply ignored it.

She has never been one to judge by appearance, and has absolutely no feelings for the so-called "creamy boys". In her own aesthetic, real men of the tough type are more attractive to her.

Qu Peining's self-confidence naturally has its roots.

Buzz!

Her cell phone vibrated.

Qu Peining picked it up and saw that it was a message from someone codenamed "11".

"Peining, I have sent the information you requested to your mailbox. The content is very mixed, but it should be relatively complete. In addition, although I don't know what you want to do, you'd better be careful. This person named Zhou Wang may not be a simple person..."

"What do you mean?"

Zhai Peining replied doubtfully, then quickly opened his encrypted mailbox and checked the various information about Zhou Wang in it.

"I'm not really sure, but when I used the internal system to check him, the account I logged into received an alert from the system. Fortunately, I used some technical means and logged into a different account..."

"System warning? What do you mean? Are you saying that this Zhou Wang has another identity and is under special protection?"

Qu Peining was a little confused and asked her partner in disbelief.

"It's hard to say, because I can't see anything from the information. It's possible that the account I logged in with doesn't have enough permissions, but the probability is not high. Anyway, you'd better be careful..."

Qu Peining frowned, but after thinking about it carefully, he didn't really take it seriously.

Considering Zhou Wang's age and wealth of over 100 million, it is normal for him to attract some attention.

"Got it. I'll be careful... Also, I might have to stay out for a while. If the boss or my parents have any questions during this time, remember to help me deal with them."

"Well, with your status and now a civilian job, who will really restrict your whereabouts?"

The person codenamed "11" replied, "You've been tense for too long before. Just treat this as a vacation and relax for a while. I'll help you deal with any problems you have."

"Okay, thanks. Remember to delete our communication records. After all, it's against the rules, and I can't let you get involved."

"Don't worry, I'm more cautious than you in this regard. If you need anything, contact me again. I won't take the initiative to look for you."

After waiting for a while and seeing that the other party didn't say anything more, Qu Peining exited the encrypted communication software and then put down the phone.

At this time, the subway arrived at the station. Qu Peining looked up and found that Zhou Wang, who had been leaning against the corner of the car, had disappeared. She was startled and looked around. Soon she saw Zhou Wang just walking out of the door. Seeing that the door was about to close, she hurriedly followed him...
