Locking away my heart and love! Going back to 2000 to be a top student again.

After grabbing Xu Su's arm, the red-hatted man felt a surge of patience as he touched her smooth skin. He reached out with his other hand and pinched Xu Su's face, grinning lewdly: "Good girl, don't even think about running away. I don't want to hurt your pretty little face."

"What will it take for you to let me go? Rape is a crime, it's jail time!"

Xu Su tried to unfasten her watch: "I have money. This watch is worth at least five million. Take it, and pretend none of this ever happened..."

five million?

The eyes of the migrant workers nearby immediately lit up; they had never seen such a valuable watch in their lives.

"You look quite wealthy, but I didn't expect you to be this rich." One of the men in the yellow hats standing nearby chuckled and pulled out a cell phone, saying maliciously, "What's a watch? Once we've had our way with you, we'll take a picture, and you won't be afraid to pay us."

"What's illegal? We've become your men, we're family now. You can't accuse us of rape, can you? We're just worthless lives, but what about a pretty young girl like you? Don't you care about your reputation?"

"That's right, take a lot of pictures later, she won't disobey."

Xu Su felt a chill run down her spine; she hadn't expected these people to be so ruthless.

They were prepared to threaten to take nude photos.

How to do?

"I have no grudge against any of you. I believe that if you work here, you can't be bad people. Please, please let me go. I have a boyfriend. What if he finds out..."

Several migrant workers nearby lewdly laughed:

"There's no real grudge, but blame it on your good looks. With your fair and delicate skin, coming to our group of bachelors is just tempting us to commit crimes, isn't it?"

"How old is the little girl this year? She looks so young."

"To sleep with a girl of your caliber even once, is it illegal? What's the sentence for rape?"

"Once we've made you feel comfortable, you probably won't want to leave."

One of the workers looked at Xu Su's delicate, glowing limbs, swallowed hard, and cursed, "Damn it, why can those rich guys play with girls like this, while I can only find old, faded women to relieve my lust!"

"Coming to the construction site looking for men? Aren't we men? We don't have much else here, but we have plenty of men." Another man in a yellow hat rubbed his hands together, looked at Xu Su's legs, touched them, and, overcome with lust, immediately tried to reach out and lift her skirt...

Xu Su struggled desperately, but the man in the red hat behind her covered her mouth, preventing her from shouting for help.

The sensation on her leg nearly drove Xu Su to the brink of collapse; she could clearly feel the rough hand gradually moving upwards…

The man in the red hat stopped him with a look, "What's the rush? Take the person to the greenhouse first. This isn't the place to do business."

He had just been trying to lead the girl to the makeshift shed for the workers to rest in, which was more secluded and easier to navigate.

Unexpectedly, the gatekeeper ruined their plans. The man in the red hat was the leader, and when he spoke, none of the men in the yellow hats objected. The hands on their legs disappeared, and they grabbed Xu Su, ready to take her away.

She'd rather die than be taken away by them!

Xu Su wanted nothing more than to cut off the patch of skin on her leg that the migrant worker's hand had touched!

So disgusting…

Surrounded by several men, whose cheap cigarette smell mingled with the strong odor of sweat, Xu Su almost vomited and fainted.

According to the woman in the red hat, Zhou Mochen should still be at the construction site, but she's far away. She was just unlucky; she found the most secluded gate and only saw these few workers after traveling all this way. Apart from the gatekeeper, they were all bad guys who were lustful.

In her desperate struggle, Xu Su vaguely caught sight of a white megaphone placed on a large rock ahead. Suddenly, drawing strength from who-knows-where, she shook off the man's hand on her arm, rushed over, picked up the megaphone, and continued shouting, "Zhou Mochen! Zhou Mochen, help me…"

The man in the red hat thought he was about to lose his prey, but he was caught off guard and Xu Su broke free. He could no longer maintain his feigned friendliness: "You won't listen to reason, so you'll have to suffer the consequences, huh?"

He caught up with her in a few steps, snatched the horn, and tried to slap her across the face, but Xu Su narrowly dodged it.

Even after the megaphone was snatched from her hand, Xu Su was still calling out Zhou Mochen's name, which was her only hope.

"What are you all standing there for?" The man in the red hat, enraged, ordered the workers in white hats beside him, "Gag her and carry her to the greenhouse."

Xu Su was filled with despair. She couldn't understand why she was so unlucky to encounter such a thing.

Has Zhou Mochen always protected her too well?

But isn't this a legitimate construction site?

What did she do wrong?

She only came to the construction site to find Zhou Mochen in broad daylight, so why did she have to go through something like this?

Is it really true, as these people say, that it's just because she's good-looking?

Is she too beautiful, making her an easy target for bad people and more likely to tempt them into committing crimes?

Xu Su remembered Gu Yunjia's words: You don't know how disgusting, despicable, and terrible men are!

Her mental defenses completely crumbled. She closed her eyes. If she were really taken away by these people, she might as well be dead and be done with it all…

Just then, a group of people who seemed out of place at the construction site suddenly appeared around the corner. The tall, handsome man at the head of the group exuded a powerful aura that could be felt from a distance.

The figure hesitated slightly after looking in Xu Su's direction, then strode towards them as if unsure.

Just as the men in red hats were about to shut Xu Su up, they also noticed the leadership team patrolling the construction site. They were actually brought to this secluded corner by the little girl in their hands, and for a moment they all looked panicked.

Unconsciously, he loosened his grip on Xu Su.

After struggling for too long, Xu Su suddenly lost all strength. She struggled to stand up, and then everything went black as she was pulled into an embrace.

"What are you doing here?" Zhou Mochen hugged the girl, whose hair was disheveled and whose face was streaked with tears. "What happened?"

The familiar scent enveloped his entire body, and Xu Su trembled as fear washed over him.

She almost…

Zhou Mochen grasped her arm, about to look down at her more closely.

Xu Su hissed, her arm trembling with pain. Zhou Mochen quickly moved his hand away and saw a large handprint on her arm…

One can imagine how much strength the person who left the handprint possessed…

Zhou Mochen turned his head stiffly to look at the group of migrant workers who had just surrounded Xu Su, and he had already vaguely guessed what was going on.

But he still blinked in disbelief: "They..."

Xu Su gripped his clothes tightly, her voice like that of a frightened fawn, whimpering, "Zhou Mochen, if you had come half a minute later, I would have died, really, I would have died."

She would never allow herself to be taken away by such a group of people, and she would never fall to that level.

She will die, even if it means biting her tongue to commit suicide.

If you had come half a minute later, I would have died...

The hand around his waist tightened suddenly, as if Zhou Mochen wanted to pull the girl in his arms tightly into his body.
