After the divorce, the crazy CEO knocked on his ex-wife's door every night.

"Oh, please help me take her home, what else am I supposed to do? Since you don't like her, I won't do it again next time."

Seeing this, Gao Jing quickly grabbed his arm, her coquettish tone mixed with a hint of pleading, as if hoping he would soften his heart and change his mind.

Lu Shuli rolled her eyes at her helplessly, her face full of resignation.

But in the end, he still stepped forward and grabbed Shen Feiyan's arm. Although the action was a bit rough, and could even be described as quite rude, it was still in response to Gao Jing's request. He lifted Shen Feiyan, who was almost slumped in the chair, from her seat and dragged her out like luggage.

Upon seeing this approach, Gao Jing's lips curled into an almost imperceptible smile, as if she were quite satisfied with the outcome.

Then she quickly picked up her bag and caught up with the two of them, her steps unusually light.

Just as all this was in progress, Shen Xuan walked into the noisy place on the other side.

Remembering that there was something he wanted to tell Gao Jing, he tried making a phone call.

After failing to get through several times, she began to feel anxious and restless. So she wandered aimlessly around the area, hoping to find Shen Feiyan.

Meanwhile, in a car not far away, Gao Jing turned around and glanced at Shen Feiyan, who was lying quietly in the back seat, a complex emotion flashing in her eyes.

In an instant, she shifted her attention to Lu Shuli, who was sitting in the driver's seat, and said, "My phone is dead, can I borrow yours?"

His tone was calm and natural, as if nothing had just happened.

Upon hearing the request, Lu Shuli silently took out her phone from her pocket and handed it to her without saying anything more.

Then Gao Jing quickly dialed a number and began speaking rapidly into the microphone, her words full of energy and purpose.

However, at this moment, Shen Xuan, who was far away in the hall, tried to contact Gao Jing one after another without success. He found that not only could he not get through to Gao Jing's phone, but even his sister Shen Feiyan's mobile phone number was switched off.

This made her feel even more anxious and uneasy.

After sighing, she looked around but couldn't see or contact the two people. She could only guess that they had probably already gone home together.

With such mixed feelings, I left the building and was about to go downstairs to head home when, unexpectedly, I was blocked by several thugs who suddenly appeared at the entrance on the first floor.

This unexpected situation immediately made her tense, and an ominous premonition welled up in her heart.

What do you want to do?

As Shen Xuan cautiously backed away, trying to create distance between herself and the others, she asked the question.

At this moment, her body began to tremble slightly. Although she tried her best to remain calm, the expression on her face betrayed the fear that she could not hide deep inside.

When confronted with her questioning, the group of thugs only gave her a vicious, mocking look and continued to approach her step by step.

Even the most oblivious person should have realized what these people might do next, and Shen Xuan was no exception, feeling extremely nervous.

In a place like Jiangcheng, this kind of thing is not uncommon.

The people here seem to be used to violence and threats, and similar incidents occur almost every night.

"Don't come any closer! I'm warning you, Li Siyuan won't let you get away with this!"

She quickly backed away, trying to distance herself from those people, while shouting warnings at the top of her lungs, hoping they would stop.

"Hey little girl, play with me for a bit."

One of the men, clearly the leader of the thugs, revealed a sinister smile, his eyes seeming to say that she was like a lamb to the slaughter, unable to escape his grasp.

Shen Xuan was startled, realizing that these people really had no intention of letting her go, and they didn't even take a big shot like Li Siyuan seriously.

If we were to be caught by these thugs, the consequences would be unimaginable.

Her heart was racing, and her palms were starting to sweat.

"Go away, don't touch me!"

Her voice trembled slightly with fear, but she tried to appear strong.

She continued to back away until she finally reached the wall, with no other way to retreat.

Her palms were sweaty, and beads of sweat were clearly visible on her forehead, sliding down her cheeks.

Nevertheless, she tried her best to remain calm and not let her panic show.

The group of arrogant thugs gradually approached and began to make some very indecent gestures towards her.

At this critical moment, a black sedan that looked expensive suddenly stopped at the side of the road, and the bright light from its headlights made everyone squint.

The thug leading the group tried to pin her to the ground, but the intense high beams made him extremely uncomfortable, forcing him to shield his eyes from the blinding light.

A moment later, a tall man slowly got out of the car. The powerful aura he exuded immediately froze the surrounding air, and those who had been so arrogant before instantly dared not make any more moves.

"Give me the man!"

He uttered those four words coldly, his tone filled with irresistible authority.

Although it only has a few simple syllables, it is enough to intimidate everyone.

Seeing the aggressive look on the newcomer's face, the thugs huddled together to discuss their next move and prepare to fight back.

However, Shen Xuan, who was lying on the ground, took the opportunity to quickly straighten her coat and struggled to sit up. At this moment, her face was extremely pale and her whole body was trembling. She was obviously very frightened.

The man in the car rolled down the window again, his cold eyes fixed on the thugs in front of him.

Under the cover of night, his eyes were unusually cold and sharp, as if he could see through everyone's thoughts and wanted to devour them alive.

Feeling this powerful sense of oppression, the thugs looked at each other, seemingly hesitant.

They only scattered and fled when they heard police sirens nearby.

Shen Xuan hugged herself tightly against the corner of the wall, almost curling up into a ball.

Her clothes were disheveled from the argument, and now she was naked in front of everyone, which made her feel extremely ashamed.

She didn't look up to see the gazes around her, but tried her best to hide her disheveled state, as if the air around her had become unusually heavy.

Her eyes were lowered, and her hands trembled as she gripped her clothes tightly, afraid that even the slightest unease would slip through her fingers.

Only when the footsteps drew closer did a warm current slowly flow into her body, gradually bringing her back to consciousness.

It was a familiar, warm feeling that made her heart beat again.

He walked up to her, gently took off his coat, and carefully draped it over her shoulders, as if this one action contained all his tenderness and care for her.
