She threw the wallet far away without hesitation. Since the man was choosing his belongings, he would definitely go for the wallet first.
This way, she would have a chance to escape!
As expected, when the man saw that his wallet had been thrown away by Joes, he immediately ran out to get it back.
It was also at this moment that Joes felt the dagger at her waist leave. Without any hesitation, she immediately fled.
By the time the man picked up the wallet, Joes had already run far away.
The reason why she didnât hesitate was that her own safety was more important. Another reason was that she only had a little cash in her wallet. Her bank card was placed behind her phone, so there was no need to worry.
The man opened the wallet and found some cash in it. He suddenly felt a lump in his throat.
âStop right there!â
Joes ran forward with all her might, and when she heard the angry roars of the man behind her, she used even more of her strength.
The alleyway, which usually had some pedestrians, seemed to have disappeared today. They ran for a long time without seeing a single person.
âBang!â
Joes had just looked behind her and was not paying attention to the situation in front when she suddenly bumped into someoneâs chest.
In an instant, she felt as if she was seeing stars.
......
After a long while, Joris finally came back to her senses. She touched the bridge of her nose, which was throbbing with pain, and said,ââIâm sorry ... I wasnât looking where I was going. â
As soon as she looked up, she saw a familiar and handsome face, which made her stunned.
Joes could not believe what she had just seen. She rubbed her eyes and looked again. The person in front of her was still the same person. There was no change.
âZheng Zeyi, what are you doing here?â Joes cried out in shock.
Thatâs right, the person standing in front of her was Zheng Zeyi.
Zheng Zeyi was wearing a black suit with his hands in his pockets. His eyes seemed to be shining with a strange light in the dark night, making people sink into them.
Joes could not help but swallow her saliva. However, he suddenly said,ââWhatâs wrong with you?â
After all, Qiao sisi had run away in such a hurry just now and would even look behind her from time to time. Naturally, Zheng Zeyi had taken all of that into his eyes, which was why he had asked this question.
His words woke Joes up and she instantly became anxious again,ââZheng Zeyi, letâs run! Thereâs a robber chasing after me and he has a knife!â
However, it seemed to be too late.
The armed robber had caught up with him, and he was a little breathless after running for a long distance.
When he stopped, the manâs eyes widened when he saw Zheng Zeyi and Qiao si.
It was really strange. He had just looked around and there was no one nearby. Where did this man come from?
âIs this the person?â Zheng Zeyi squinted his eyes slightly and said with a slightly dangerous tone.
When the man saw her gaze, he felt as if he was being stared at by a ferocious beast. He could not help but have goosebumps and his scalp went numb.
Jossi nodded and pointed at the man.ââThatâs right. Itâs him. He even stole my wallet.â
Even though she said that, she still moved closer to Zheng Zeyi and said softly,ââLetâs go first. He has a knife, so we should be careful.â
The money in the wallet meant nothing to joesse. Naturally, their safety was the most important.
Upon hearing this, Zheng Zeyi shook his head and smiled.ââNo, I think itâs very interesting.â
âWhat?â Even Joes could not believe what she had just heard.
In front of him was a knife-wielding robber, but not only was Zheng Zeyi not afraid, he even said that he found it interesting?
The man didnât hear the conversation between the two. Cold sweat kept coming out of his forehead. He wiped the sweat off his forehead and raised his knife.
âHand over all your money and Iâll let you go,â
The manâs voice was trembling. He had been robbing in this area for so long, but this was the first time he had met someone like Zheng Zeyi. His gaze was too terrifying.
Even he could not help but feel afraid.
Qiao SIâs brows were tightly furrowed as she stood beside Zheng Zeyi. Her heart that was beating very quickly earlier had calmed down a little and was not as scared as before.
âIâve already given you the money just now. Thatâs all I have!â
Hearing this, the manâs eyes flickered. He raised the knife and said,ââCut the crap. What about the man beside you? hurry up and take out all your money.â
After saying that, he took a few steps forward. The tip of the knife glowed with a silver light, looking extremely terrifying.
Just as joesse was about to speak, Zheng Zeyi stopped her.ââStand back a little. From now on ... Itâs very dangerous. Donât hurt yourself.ân/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
After hearing this, Qiao si pondered for a moment. Just as she was about to ask, she realized that Zheng Zeyi had already walked over, and every step he took was accompanied by a strong sense of oppression.
âYou ... What are you doing? donât come over!â
The man took the knife and stepped back. Even his hands were trembling as he said,ââDid you hear that? donât come over when I see you!â
However, Zheng Zeyi did not seem to hear him. He walked forward step by step, as if he had become one with the darkness.
Joes watched from behind and shouted,ââZheng Zeyi, be careful!â
It was also at this moment that Zheng Zeyi made his move! Just as the man was about to stab Zheng Zeyi with the knife, Joes âeyes widened. There were many things she wanted to say, but she was so nervous that she could not say a single word.
Fortunately, she did not need to worry about Zheng Zeyi.
âBang!â
There was a loud noise on the ground. Zheng Zeyi had already snatched the dagger and thrown the man to the ground. In an instant, a lot of dust was stirred up, like smoke.
When joesse saw that Zheng Zeyi was fine and had even completed a counterattack, her hanging heart finally settled down and she heaved a sigh of relief.
She did not even realize how worried she was about Zheng Zeyi.
After the man was thrown to the ground, he felt as if all the bones in his body had been broken. He kept rolling and struggling on the ground, but he couldnât get up.
Seeing this, Zheng Zeyi took a few steps forward with a smile on his face. The dagger was still in his palm.
That smile, in the manâs eyes, was like a devil. He kept shaking his head and wanted to step back, his mouth still mumbling,ââDonât come over, donât come over. â
It was clear that he was indeed scared out of his wits by Zheng Zeyi. After all, he was the CEO of the Zheng Corporation. Not only did he have amazing business capabilities, but his martial arts skills were also unimaginable and had reached an extremely high level.
âAre you afraid?â Zheng Zeyiâs magnetic voice rang out.
