80 village women marry military officers; it was supposed to be a fake marriage.

With a scream, someone released Lin Yue's hand and slapped her across the face. She felt blood coming out of her mouth.

"Ouch, my nose! You dare bump into me? I'll teach you a lesson!"

Lin Yue was filled with endless fear. She kicked and struggled with her hands and feet, but she was no match for the other person's strength, who held her tightly.

Lin Yue clearly sensed that these two people weren't after her life, but were instead tearing at her clothes; their intentions were obvious.

The thought of this possibility sent a chill down Lin Yue's spine, and a wave of coldness washed over her. If she were to be harmed here, she would have no choice but to die.

She tried to shout, but her mouth was covered tightly. She heard one of the men say viciously, "I'm just having some fun. If you cooperate, I might spare your life. Otherwise, I'll make sure you don't see the sun tomorrow."

What difference is there between being defiled and being dead? Even if Chang Jingxiang spares her from leaving out of consideration for their past relationship, she will still feel dirty and ashamed to stay any longer. Lin Yue has never felt so desperate as she does today.

Lin Yue still struggled, and one of the men simply pressed down on her feet with his hands and leaned forward. Lin Yue immediately smelled a body odor, as if she hadn't bathed in a hundred years.

Lin Yue felt nauseous and wanted to vomit. She felt a touch on her chest. With a determined heart, she prepared to bite her tongue. She had read in books that people in ancient times committed suicide by biting their tongues when they were being humiliated.

It was too dark for Lin Yue to see the man's face clearly; she could only see a shadowy figure. The man behind her, who was covering her mouth and pulling her arm, remained silent.

Lin Yue said goodbye to Chang Jingxiang in her heart, tears streaming down her face. Today she was going to say goodbye to this world.

She had already bitten her tongue when she suddenly felt the man controlling her from behind loosen his grip, followed by a scream.

Then the man seemed to get into a fight with another person, and the sounds of fists and feet colliding could be heard one after another.

He loosened his grip, and Lin Yue's arm was free again. She scratched and clawed at the man in front of her without any regard for anything else, feeling her nails digging into his flesh.

"You filthy woman, how dare you scratch my face! I'll kill you!" The man's voice was even more ferocious than before.

Lin Yue felt a cold wind rushing towards her. She instinctively raised her arm to block it, only to hear a muffled groan as a warm chest pressed against her.

After only a few seconds of contact, the warm chest was gone, and several dark figures were seen wrestling together. Lin Yue quickly got up and stumbled as she ran out of the flower bushes.

As she ran, she shouted for help, "Help! Someone help me!"

Suddenly, someone grabbed her collar from behind and pulled her back forcefully. The person was very strong, and Lin Yue's body was pulled backward continuously.

It was very late, and there was no one on the road. Lin Yue's desperate cries filled the darkness.

Suddenly a beam of light shone, and a deep male voice rang out from afar, "Hurry, a car is coming."

The force behind her suddenly disappeared, followed by the sound of hurried footsteps fading into the distance. Lin Yue's body fell backward uncontrollably.

Just when she thought she was going to fall hard to the ground, someone caught her. There was another muffled groan; it was a man.

After Lin Yue steadied herself, the person behind her suddenly fell backward. Lin Yue instinctively tried to grab him, but before she could even touch his clothes, the person crashed heavily to the ground.

The car had already pulled up in the distance, and someone got out and asked sternly, "Who are you? What are you doing here so late at night? Please show your identification."

Lin Yue turned around to look, but the light was so bright she couldn't open her eyes. She quickly shielded her eyes with her arm, and then heard someone get out of the car. "Xiao Yue?"

Lin Yue lowered her arm to look, tears instantly blurring her vision. Her body could no longer support her weight, and she fell straight forward. Before falling, she cried out, "Dad, save him!"

The moment Chang's father caught her, Lin Yue fainted. She felt like she was having a dream in which Chang Jingxiang was wearing a military uniform and waving at her with his head covered in blood.

His expression remained gentle, as if he felt no pain, and he continued to smile at Lin Yue, his lips seemingly saying "goodbye."

Chang Jingxiang retreated step by step, waving at her incessantly. Lin Yue reached out to grab him, but couldn't grasp anything. Chang Jingxiang's body gradually disappeared. "Jingxiang, no."

Lin Yue suddenly opened her eyes and saw Chang's mother looking at her with tears in her eyes. "Child, you're finally awake? Are you alright?"

Lin Yue cried like a child, "Mom, I dreamt of Jingxiang. His head was covered in blood. Was he injured? Mom, please tell me, did something happen to Jingxiang?"

She cried her heart out, her body trembling uncontrollably, and then fainted again the next second.

"Doctor, doctor,..."

Lin Yue was unconscious for two whole days. Chang's mother stayed by her bedside all night without sleep, and she looked haggard.

The doctor said that Lin Yue had been stimulated and her body was under excessive tension, which caused her to fall into a coma. Apart from some abrasions, there were no other problems.

Mr. Chang pushed open the door to the ward, walked to Mrs. Chang's side, and patted her shoulder. "Go back and rest. I'll stay here and watch over you. How can your body take this?"

Mother Chang shook her head and said in a hoarse voice, "I'm fine, but I'm worried about her when I get back. It's my fault for not taking good care of Xiaoyue and letting her encounter such a thing. If something really happened to her, how could I explain it to Jingxiang?"

As she spoke, the tears that Chang's mother had just stopped flowing again. She stroked Lin Yue's hand and said in a choked voice, "Xiao Yue, please wake up soon. What am I supposed to do if you lie here like this?"

Her tears fell onto Lin Yue's face. As if sensing it, Lin Yue twitched her fingers. Mother Chang shouted excitedly, "Quick, go call the doctor! Hurry, Xiao Yue's finger moved!"

Lin Yue woke up and looked at her mother blankly. "Mom, why are you crying? What's wrong with me?"

After examining Lin Yue, the doctor told Chang's mother, "She's fine now. Observe her for another hour, and if there are no problems, she can go home."

Mrs. Chang breathed a long sigh of relief. "It's alright, it's alright, thank you doctor."

The doctor walked up to Chang's father and said, "Chief Chang, the other person who was brought to the hospital is also out of danger. We need you to sign some documents."

Mr. Chang nodded and went out with the doctor. Lin Yue suddenly remembered something and struggled to get up. Mrs. Chang quickly stepped forward to help her up.

"Mom, how is the person who saved me? He seems to be injured."
