She goes crazy, he'll cover for her; the darling of the group is someone no one dares to mess w

My legs went weak and I almost fell to the ground.

He glanced at Sun Zhixin, whose face was covered in blood, and then at Lu Jie, who had an indifferent expression and seemed to have no intention of stopping. His heart trembled.

After hesitating for a long time, he could only turn his gaze to Fang Li, who was standing next to the sofa.

The manager, clenching his fists, took two cautious steps toward Fang Li, his eyes pleading, and whispered, "Miss, please persuade Young Master Lu quickly, this... it would be terrible if someone died!"

Fang Li glanced at him coldly, her expression indifferent.

So, do you realize now that causing someone's death is wrong?

If Lu Jie hadn't appeared in time, she would be the one being held down now, her life hanging in the balance!

The coldness on her face was too glaring.

The manager stared at her for a moment, and felt inexplicably terrified and guilty.

Seeing that things were unlikely to end well today, the manager broke out in a sweat. Taking advantage of Lu Jie's inattention, he quickly took out his phone and sent a message.

The next moment, Lu Jie, who had been venting his anger, suddenly turned around.

The manager's hand trembled, and he almost dropped the phone in his hand.

Unexpectedly, Lu Jie didn't even look at him. His gaze fell on Fang Li, and he said, "Go downstairs and wait for me. I'll be right there."

The manager stared blankly at Lu Jie, then at Fang Li.

I thought Fang Li would say something, but she just walked away silently with a blank expression.

Now, the manager became even more curious about Fang Li's identity.

A woman who could enrage one of the most notorious young masters in the capital so much, and who ultimately showed no respect whatsoever... To be honest, after so many years of working at Meise, he'd seen all sorts of people in the capital, but he'd never seen a woman like this before.

Fang Li wanted to leave immediately, but then she thought that Lu Jie had helped her after all, and leaving without saying goodbye would make her seem a bit heartless.

She went down the stairs, intending to go to the rest area, but as soon as she got closer, she saw that Zhou Yufan and Wen Yang, who had already left, were also there.

Seeing that Wen Yang was still dazed and had no idea what had happened, just leaning against Zhou Yufan's chest and muttering occasionally, Fang Li went over and sat down, asking, "Why didn't you leave?"

Zhou Yufan looked at her: "Where's your phone?"

Fang Li paused for a moment, grabbed the bag next to her and rummaged through it, but couldn't find it. Then she remembered that she had taken her phone with her when she went to the restroom.

When Sun Zhixin assaulted her, she took out her phone to call the police, but he slapped it away.

Thinking of this, Fang Li frowned: "It must have fallen into the private room we were in earlier. I'll go look for it."

As Fang Li was about to get up, Lu Jie, who had said he would come downstairs later, strode in. He came over, but didn't sit down. He looked at Fang Li with interest and said, "Good girl. I thought you wouldn't wait."

Fang Li: "...I don't plan to wait, but you at least helped me. I'm not an ungrateful person, I should thank you in person."

"Thank me in person? So, all I'm worth after helping you is a thank you?" Lu Jie stood with his hands in his pockets, relaxed and at ease.

Fang Li moved her lips but didn't say anything.

After several seconds, she looked up at him and asked, "So what do you want?"

Lu Jie's lips curled slightly, but his expression remained unchanged. He took two steps toward her with a light sway of his long legs, put his hands in his pockets, and leaned slightly toward her. "Hmm... I haven't decided yet. How about you consider it a favor you owe me? I'll repay you later when I've thought it over, okay?"

"..." Fang Li's eyes flickered, and she said calmly, "What's the difference between this and making a bad promise? If you ask me to kill or commit arson, or... to sell myself, am I supposed to agree?"

Lu Jie smiled, a mischievous glint in his eyes, and said, "Selling yourself isn't out of the question. Since you're afraid I'll ask for an exorbitant price, why don't you just pay up now?"

Fang Li frowned.

Lu Jie grinned wickedly: "Spend one night with me, and we'll call it quits."

accompany.......?

"..." Fang Li's wariness turned into anger.

She knew this man was a scoundrel, and it turns out he was waiting for her here. Accompany him? She'd rather face Sun Zhixin alone; even if it means mutual destruction, it's better than being toyed with by him!

Fang Li took several deep breaths to barely suppress the anger in her heart. Her eyes flickered and a cold smile appeared on her face. She said, "Young Master Lu, if you had this intention in helping me from the beginning, then please take a detour when you see me again. I would rather be beaten to death than be taken advantage of like you are."

"So ruthless?" Lu Jie raised an eyebrow. "I just asked you to keep me company, I didn't say what you were supposed to do, why such a big reaction?"

Fang Li: "As for..."

Lu Jie sighed softly, a hint of distress rising in his eyes. "What a heartless person. If I had known you would treat your savior like this, I shouldn't have interfered."

Fang Li frowned but didn't say anything.

Just then, Zhou Yufan's phone rang.

The designated driver has arrived.

Zhou Yufan briefly explained his location, hung up the phone, and looked at Fang Li.

"Let's go." He glanced at Lu Jie indifferently, completely ignoring him.

Fang Li nodded, picked up her bag and stood up. She watched Zhou Yufan carry Wen Yang toward the door and prepared to follow, but after taking two steps, she suddenly stopped.

After thinking for a moment, she looked down and took out her checkbook from her bag, quickly signed her name, tore off a check, turned around, walked back to Lu Jie, and stuffed the check directly into the pocket of his shirt.

"This is just a blank check, consider it a thank you for your generosity tonight, Young Master Lu. I know you have a distinguished background and are not short of money, but this is my heartfelt gift, please don't find it offensive."

After saying that, she turned to leave.

As a result, just as I turned halfway, my hand was grabbed from the side.

At the same time, Zhou Yufan, who had just carried Wen Yang to the door, stopped. He saw a familiar car parked outside the heavy glass door, and two tall figures were striding towards them.

Upon seeing the cold and alluring face of the man in the lead, Fang Li's heart skipped a beat, and she instinctively tried to shake off the hand wrapped around her wrist.

Unexpectedly, Lu Jie must have already noticed the person who came. Not only did he not let go, he also pulled her back with a little force.

Fang Li tried to resist, but she was no match for Lu Jie.

In the struggle, she crashed into Lu Jie's arms, and then he stretched out his long arm and half-embraced her, holding her shoulder.

The scent of Lu Jie's strong men's cologne instantly filled my nostrils.

However, this is not the end.

As the man strode into the doorway, a wicked provocation flashed in Lu Jie's eyes. He slightly tilted his head, his grip on Fang Li's neck tightening.

Fang Li only felt a soft, warm touch on her cheek, which quickly disappeared like a dragonfly skimming the water.

When she realized what it was, her body suddenly froze.

Before she could react, a dark shadow flashed past her eyes, followed by a loud thud, the sound of a fist hitting flesh, and the hand holding her shoulder slipped away instantly, causing the person beside her to fall backward.
