Gong Juncheng slowly rolled down the car window, his cold, handsome features completely expressionless.

The man who had been so arrogant just moments before immediately cowered, looked at Gong Juncheng with an embarrassed smile, and said softly.

"So it's Mr. Gong. I apologize for my ignorance."

"Tell me, who's the bastard?"

Gong Juncheng glanced coldly at the smiling man who stepped out, his eyes particularly sharp.

The man felt his legs go weak when Gong Juncheng glanced at him like that. He trembled as he pulled out a cigarette case from his pocket, took out a cigarette, and then realized that the cigarettes in the case had been soaked by the rain while he was chasing the woman.

"Mr. Gong, I wasn't talking about you. I didn't know you were the one who bumped into us. It's my fault, my fault. I apologize to you here. I'm so sorry."

Gong Juncheng glanced indifferently at the man who spoke, his eyes showing little emotion.

Under Gong Juncheng's cold gaze, the man standing in the rainy night felt a chill run through his body.

Soon, the people at the bar noticed something was wrong and immediately came over. Seeing that Gong Juncheng's car had collided with other people's cars, they quickly came over to ask what had happened.

"Sir, are you okay?"

Gong Juncheng shook his head and glanced indifferently at the man shivering in the heavy rain.

When the man's other brothers saw that it was Gong Juncheng, they didn't dare to come out at all. They just stayed in the car and remained silent the whole time. No one dared to come out and say a word for the man.

Gong Juncheng remained silent, lingering there. The man dared not leave in the rainy night, his obsequious manner a far cry from his arrogant demeanor when he was with Mu Ya'an.

"Mr. Gong, I really didn't mean to say those things just now. If I had known that the person in the car was you, I would have gotten as far away as possible."

Gong Juncheng glanced at the man indifferently, remained silent for a while, and then spoke in a cold and sharp voice.

"Your right hand, right?"

Gong Juncheng suddenly spoke, his expression one of bewilderment.

He couldn't understand what Gong Juncheng meant.

What happened to his right hand?

"Mr. Gong, what do you mean? I don't understand."

Gong Juncheng glanced at the man indifferently and said in a deep voice.

"It's okay if you don't understand, as long as I do."

He glanced indifferently at his subordinates standing beside his car and said coldly.

"You know what to do, right?"

Seeing the unusually sharp expression on Gong Juncheng's face, his subordinate took a deep breath and nodded.

"know."

Gong Juncheng hadn't been this moody in a long time.

This man only has bad luck to blame for provoking Gong Juncheng.

Upon hearing Gong Juncheng's words, the man's expression immediately turned fearful.

"Mr. Gong, I have nowhere for you to stay."

However, Gong Juncheng didn't listen to his nonsense, started the car, and drove away.

Mu Ya'an kept running forward, not daring to relax for a moment, until her legs had no strength left, then she stopped to catch her breath.

This period was probably the darkest time in Mu Ya'an's life.

She took a deep breath, and tears involuntarily streamed down her face.

Today, she came here, but not only did she fail to sell the necklace, she almost got herself into trouble.

Hearing the sound of a car behind him again, Mu Ya'an barely dared to move, crouching in the bushes, barely daring to breathe.

She hid in the bushes and watched the sports car drive past her. She could clearly see that the man driving the car was none other than Gong Juncheng.

Mu Ya'an looked somewhat shocked, but she quickly regained her composure and left.

She never expected to see Gong Juncheng here.

However, considering Gong Juncheng's numerous activities in H City recently, it's likely he'll be developing his career there in the future.

Mu Ya'an bit her lip lightly and stepped back into the alley.

She walked to the entrance of the alley and saw a black sedan parked there. Her expression changed slightly, and she stepped over.

As she walked over, the door of the black sedan was opened, and a man in a suit and tie, holding a black umbrella, got out of the back seat.

"Miss Mu?"

Upon hearing this, Mu Ya'an nodded, looking at the man in front of her with a somewhat wary expression.

She had never seen this man before.

"May I ask you are?"

The man in the black nickel-plated suit looked at her with unusual composure and said in a low voice.

“Miss Mu, I saw you at the black market just now.”

Upon hearing this, Mu Ya'an paused for a moment, her expression changing slightly. She looked at the man in front of her with some confusion and a strong sense of wariness.

"Are you alright?"

“Miss Mu, please don’t be nervous. I only came here because I saw that you had something I wanted. A good friend of mine really likes the necklace you have, so he asked me to come and buy it from you. As for the price, my friend is willing to agree to the price you would have paid to buy the necklace back.”

Mu Ya'an listened to the man's words with an expression of great surprise.

I never expected that the things I couldn't sell on the black market would actually sell here.

"can."

She was short of money and agreed almost without thinking.

Gong Juncheng's assistant looked somewhat helpless when he saw that Mu Ya'an had been dealing with him cautiously before, but after hearing that he wanted to buy a necklace, she agreed so readily and did not even suspect his motives.

Given Mu Ya'an's personality, if she were to sell things on the black market, she would likely be bullied to death by those unscrupulous merchants.

She took out the necklace from her hand and handed it to the man in the suit in front of her.

The man in front of her had a kind face and gave her a sense of trustworthiness. Mu Ya'an was desperately short of money, so when she heard that he was willing to buy it at the original price, she naturally couldn't refuse.

For her, it was like a windfall.

Mu Ya'an stared blankly at the man in front of her, who pursed his red lips, forced a smile, and said softly.

"Actually, I restored this necklace myself. Although it looks the same as before, I still want to tell you the truth: I can give you a discount on the price."

Gong Juncheng sat in the back seat.

The rear windows were tinted black, so people outside couldn't see what was happening inside the car at all.

Gong Juncheng glanced indifferently at Mu Ya'an, his expression immediately darkening.

Having just experienced what happened, Mu Ya'an could still smile at a strange man like that. In Gong Juncheng's eyes, her smile was extremely irritating.

He immediately took out his phone and dialed his assistant's number.

When the assistant saw Gong Juncheng calling, he looked puzzled and glanced at the back seat. Just as he was about to answer, the call was disconnected.

Soon, Gong Juncheng sent a text message to his phone.

"Take the necklace and leave."

The assistant was stunned upon hearing this.

Isn't this setting a trap for Mu Ya'an?

He stared at the text message for a moment, a hint of confusion creeping onto his face.

Mu Ya'an looked at the man in the suit in front of her with anticipation, without the slightest doubt.

"I only need 300,000. I can sell you the necklace for 300,000."

In fact, Mu Ya'an's expected price was only 200,000.

But since this man has already followed her all the way to this alley, he'll definitely buy it no matter what price she offers, as long as it's reasonable.

When the assistant heard Mu Ya'an say this, he nodded, his expression a little awkward. However, he quickly regained his composure, glanced at Mu Ya'an somewhat guiltily, and then said in a low voice.

"Ms. Mu, please wait a moment. I need to tell my friend. I'll go to my car to make a call, and then I'll transfer the money to you."

Mu Ya'an nodded upon hearing this.

Seeing that the man's words and actions were very polite, and he didn't seem like someone who would cheat people, she just watched as he took the necklace, hoping in her heart that he would agree.

If the other party doesn't agree, she can make some further concessions.

The assistant took the necklace and walked into the driver's seat. He saw Gong Juncheng sitting in the back seat with an unusually gloomy expression on his face.

He paused for a moment, about to speak, when the man's face turned cold and he gave a stern order.

"drive."

The assistant took a deep breath and started the car.

Upon hearing the car start, Mu Ya'an's expression changed slightly. She immediately reached for the car door handle, trying to stop the person.

But as soon as her hand touched the handle, the car sped away.

Mu Ya'an was also pulled by the car and finally fell into the puddle.
