The man was knocked dizzy, cursed, and staggered two steps.
Taking this opportunity, Jing Yu broke free from the shackles. She no longer cared to pick up the bag and mobile phone on the ground. She saw several strong car lights coming towards them from afar. She had nowhere to go, and she ran towards the center of the road like a horse that had broken free from its reins.
A row of dazzling car lights cut through the darkness of the night.
In such a quiet night, three black luxury cars drove forward.
It seemed as if they were not expecting a figure to suddenly rush out. After a sharp brake sound, the three cars stopped one after another.
Jing Yu paused for only a moment, and when she turned around, she saw that the people behind her had caught up with her. She kicked off her other shoe and instinctively rushed towards one of the cars barefoot.
"What are you doing? Stop!" A cold shout suddenly rang out.
At the same time, a black-clad bodyguard got out of each of the three cars to block her. Each of them was burly and had a stern face, which made people shudder at the sight of them. Moreover, it was obvious at a glance that they were all well-trained people, and they were probably even harder to provoke than the people chasing behind her.
With so many people and such a big scene, who are the people in the car
At this moment, Jing Yu was at the end of her rope. She didn't want to think about it, and just asked for help: "Please help me call the police, I left my phone with them!"
The bodyguard was half-believing and half-doubting when he heard her say this. He looked up and saw a group of vicious people following her. However, they did not act rashly, but just turned back to look at the car in the middle, obviously waiting for instructions.
At this moment, the window of the car in the middle slowly lowered an inch.
"Sir!" The three bodyguards turned around and greeted him respectfully.
Jing Yu followed their gaze and saw the man they called "Mr." sitting in the back seat. The city street lights were dim, and only half of the car window was open. From her angle, she could only vaguely see a pair of eyes as black as night.
His facial features were not clear, but his aura was strong and intimidating. This man was definitely not an ordinary person.
Thinking of this, Jing Yu laughed at herself again. At this moment, she was still thinking about other people's identities.
"Sir, I'm in trouble. Can you please call the police for me?" She had no choice but to talk to the man since she had no way to ask the bodyguard for help. Calling the police is the duty of every citizen. I believe that anyone with a conscience would not refuse.
When the man heard this, he looked at her sideways.
The look in his eyes was deep and difficult to understand. It seemed like he was examining her, but it also seemed to have other meanings. Jing Yu felt a little uncomfortable being looked at. Moreover, his look was too oppressive, so she lowered her head involuntarily, unable to bear it.
Then, an extremely deep and pleasant voice was heard, "Cheng En, go ahead."
"Yes, sir." One of the bodyguards responded and went to meet the group of men opposite.
The next scene left Jing Yu dumbfounded. The group of ferocious and arrogant people were beaten to the ground by the black-clad bodyguard within a minute.
Jing Yu wanted to say something thankful to the mysterious man in the car, but as soon as he moved, the remaining bodyguards stretched out their arms to block his way, and said sternly, "Don't come near!"
Jing Yu was speechless: "..."
Not really. She's not some monstrous creature.
She explained in a clear voice: "I just wanted to say thank you to your husband."
However, she had no intention of getting closer. Since the other party didn't like her, she didn't need to make him unhappy for no reason. If she went forward, it would seem like she was a bootlicker.
"…" There was no response from the people in the car. She seemed to be explaining to herself in the air.
The bodyguard came back with her phone and bag in his hand. "Is this your stuff?"
"Thank you." Jing Yu took it. She looked back and saw that the group of people had already jumped into the van in a panic and left angrily. She breathed a sigh of relief and turned back to put on her high heels again.
When she looked back, the three cars had already disappeared into the night one after another. It was obvious that the other party really didn't care about her thanks.
She stood on the roadside and watched for a while. When the last bus came, she got on with her bag.
I never thought that I would have any other interactions with that person in the future.
Just from meeting them once, no, just half a time, she could tell that they were not from the same world.

Jingyu returned to the small rental house.
Since her father's accident, all the family's property was frozen. She moved out of the villa and rented a small house a few stops away from Beisiyuan Hospital. Qi Jinnian also moved out of the house, saying that he wanted to live with her, but Jingyu knew that she was just offering to help her pay half of the rent.
When she returned to the room, it was already past ten o'clock in the evening.
The small rental house is more than 60 square meters, with one bedroom, one living room, one kitchen and one bathroom. It is not too crowded for two girls to live in.
When she entered, Qi Jinnian was still writing. Hearing the door open, he didn't even raise his head, "Are you back? Have you eaten? There's food I cooked in the refrigerator, you can heat it up."
"I had something to eat in the evening. I'm not hungry now." Jingyu put his bag and cell phone on the coffee table.
Qi Jinnian finally looked up, "Why do you look so listless?"
Jing Yu glanced at her and said, "I'll take a shower first. It's getting late, you should finish early and go to bed early."
Qi Jinnian moved the notebook on his lap to the side and stood up. "Don't keep everything to yourself. You'll get sick sooner or later. Talk to me!"
Jingyu paused in taking out her pajamas. This set of pajamas was given to her by Liang Shengyi two months ago. It was a gift he brought back for her when he was on a business trip to Country M.
Thinking of him, her eyes became red.
"Yu'er?" Qi Jinnian called her worriedly. She knew her too well and could tell at a glance that something was wrong with her.
"... I'm not getting married next month." She said in a light tone.
Qi Jinnian was stunned and asked tentatively: "What does Liang Shengyi mean?"
“… He went abroad.”
Qi Jinnian's eyes widened. "He just left this whole mess behind and left like that?"
Jing Yu nodded again.
"Fuck! How come I didn't realize he was such an irresponsible and heartless man before! The wedding invitations for you two have been sent out, and now he says he doesn't want to get married, so how are you, a girl, going to explain this to the outside world?"
"This is our own business. There's nothing to explain to others." She said in a suppressed voice. She put the pajamas back into the closet and took out a new one. "I'm going to take a shower. You do your thing."
After that, she got up and went to the bathroom.
Qi Jinnian cursed a few times, but it didn't make him feel better. He went back to work and vented his anger on the keyboard, typing away.
