Ruan Qian'an wiped the blood off Huo Jingmo's face with an inscrutable expression.

Actually, when Mrs. Huo threw the teacup at him, she unconsciously raised her hand to try and block it for him.

Ruan Qian'an gave a faint smile, a smile tinged with sarcasm and self-mockery.

My heart was filled with mixed feelings; the more clear-headed I became, the more confused I felt.

Huo Jingmo asked, puzzled, "What are you laughing at?"

Ruan Qian'an blinked and said, "I'm laughing at how silly you are."

"Have you ever considered that by the time your aunt realizes what's really going on with your uncle, things might be beyond repair?"

Ruan Qian'an gently wiped Huo Jingmo's face with a handkerchief, treating him like a precious treasure.

Huo Jingmo lowered his head and began to think about this thing he had never thought about before.

Yes, what if things can't be undone once Mom realizes the truth? After all, that man outside isn't someone to be trifled with.

Wasn't my leg meant for them to see? I thought that man wouldn't be cruel to my mother, but today it seems he doesn't care whether she lives or dies.

A fierce light flashed in Huo Jingmo's eyes.

Ruan Qian'an wiped it clean, looked at his wound, and said, "Go to the hospital to get it bandaged. It looks like it's quite serious."

Huo Jingmo said indifferently, "No need."

"go home."

Ruan Qian'an clicked her tongue and said with amusement, "Is President Huo afraid of injections?"

Huo Jingmo: "What nonsense are you talking about? There's no need to go to the hospital."

Ruan Qian'an lifted Huo Jingmo's dark hair, pouted, and said coquettishly, "How can that be? What if it leaves a scar and won't be perfect?"

Huo Jingmo: "The world's best doctors are right here in my house. Is there any need to go to the hospital?"

Ruan Qian'an smiled and said, "I was naive."

Ruan Qian'an put Huo Jingmo in the back seat and went to drive in the front.

Huo Jingmo asked with slight surprise, "You can drive?"

Ruan Qian'an: "Hmm, what else? Do you still think of me as a child?"

Cracks seemed to appear on Huo Jingmo's cold, stern face, as if he were recalling unpleasant memories.

With a hint of displeasure in his tone, he said, "I haven't treated you like a child since the day you became an adult."

Ruan Qian'an chuckled and then started the car.

The car sped along the highway.

Bullets whistled through the air, shattering the car's windows. Two black cars had somehow appeared behind the vehicle.

They rushed up and clamped onto Ruan Qian'an's car.

The person inside was wearing sunglasses and pointed a gun at Ruan Qian'an through the car, saying to her, "Stop the car if you don't want to die! Hand over the people in the back."

Ruan Qian'an said to Huo Jingmo in the back seat, "Looks like they came for you."

Ruan Qian'an said calmly, "Sit down properly."

She slammed on the brakes, and the car came to a sudden stop. Due to inertia, Huo Jingmo lurched forward, but fortunately, he was restrained by the seatbelt.

The two cars that were sandwiched between her did not expect to speed forward, grazing Ruan Qian'an's car. They reacted quickly and stepped on the brakes.

Ruan Qian'an seized the opportunity and, as the two cars braked, she quickly stepped on the gas and sped past them.

The car was deformed from being squeezed by those two cars.

They pulled ahead of the two cars by a considerable distance.

She remained calm on the surface, but her tone was panicked as she said, "Who did you offend that they want to kill you?"

Huo Jingmo said, "Drive carefully and don't ask questions you shouldn't know."

Huo Jingmo heard the panic in Ruan Qian'an's voice, so he said to her, "Don't be afraid, I will protect you."

Bullets from behind came and hit the car.

Huo Jingmo: "They're catching up, so be careful of the bullets."

Huo Jingmo glanced at Ruan Qian'an with concern, thinking she was almost scared out of her wits.

Because he noticed that Ruan Qian'an's hands were trembling, he comforted her, saying, "Just concentrate on driving."

Ruan Qian'an drove the car while dodging gunfire from behind.

She had a smile on her lips, but Huo Jingmo couldn't see her expression from behind; in fact, he couldn't see it at all.

Ruan Qian'an watched Huo Jingmo's every move through the rearview mirror. Her hands, gripping the steering wheel, were trembling, not from fear, but from excitement.

Huo Jingmo lifted the seat behind him, pulled out a gun, and held it to his shoulder.

Because she was twisting her body to face backward, her slender waist was clearly visible, and her suit was wrinkled due to the large movement.

The recoil of the gun caused him to lurch backward repeatedly.

Ruan Qian'an saw the entire view through the rearview mirror. It was truly a stunning sight; everything it did looked beautiful. Ruan Qian'an thought to herself.

The bullet flew backward, causing a car behind it to crash into the guardrail and plunge off the cliff.

Ruan Qian'an whistled and said, "Handsome, President Huo."

She was so focused on Huo Jingmo that she didn't notice another car approaching them.

So before Ruan Qian'an could even feel happy, the car was overturned and rolled several times on the ground before finally coming to a stop.

The car was completely overturned on the ground after the collision.

A roaring sound filled Ruan Qian'an's mind, followed by silence.

She slowly opened her eyes.

She was hanging upside down in the car. Fortunately, Ruan Qian'an was not seriously injured, only suffering a few abrasions. She gasped for breath, unbuckled her seatbelt, and climbed out of the car.

Stumbling and falling, I arrived at the road and looked towards the back of the car, wanting to see how Huo Jingmo was doing.

But they found no one there! Huo Jingmo had vanished!

She took out her phone from her pocket, intending to call the police, when a gun was pressed against her forehead.

Ruan Qian'an froze; those people hadn't left yet.

A female voice came over and said, "You were right, this little wench is still alive."

A deep male voice replied, "Only you are acting like an idiot, thinking of letting her go. Whether she's dead or not, take her away."

The female voice said to Ruan Qian'an, "What are you standing there for? Throw your phone away!"

Seeing Ruan Qian'an hesitate, the gun was pressed harder against Ruan Qian'an's forehead, telling her that if she didn't do as he said, he would shoot her dead.

The woman was very impatient and kicked Ruan Qian'an's wrist, knocking the phone out of her hand.

Ruan Qian'an cried out in pain.

Immediately, a black cloth was placed over Ruan Qian'an's eyes, causing her to lose her sight instantly.

Then her hands were tied up, and she was pushed into a car.

She stumbled and fell on someone, her cheek touching something very sticky. Before Ruan Qian'an could figure out what it was...

A cold, clear voice reached her ears: "Are you injured? What did they do to you?"

It was Huo Jingmo's voice.

Ruan Qian'an: "I'm fine, how are you?"

Huo Jingmo: "I'm fine...."

Before he could finish speaking, Huo Jingmo's struggling and sobbing voice could be heard.

A rough male voice said viciously, "Stop talking nonsense, gag that woman too."

Ruan Qian'an struggled to break free, but she was bound and could not escape.

A female voice said, "Let's just kill this woman. She's not an important person. It'll be a good opportunity to avenge Xiao Yi and Xiao Ming."

A loud male voice boomed, "I said I wanted to see you alive! Are you an idiot?!"

The female voice suggested a possibility: "Then being half-dead would also be acceptable."

The male voice, laced with lewdness, said, "Don't touch that woman. This little wench is really hot. I'm going to have some fun with her later."

The female voice said, "All you ever think about is this. Get out of here quickly, your voice is so loud."

The car was started, and the people stopped talking. Ruan Qian'an was now resting her head on Huo Jingmo.

Ruan Qian'an's hands were tied behind her back, and her mouth was gagged.

The two of them were like lambs to the slaughter.

Utterly disheveled...
