Chu Liyuan was busy dealing with E Media. He knew everything that E Media had done over the years. Whatâs more, he had evidence in his hands. As long as he handed this evidence to the police, not only would E Media be finished, but even Qin Jizhang would be interrogated.
Initially, Chu Liyuan did not want to blow things up. After all, his father was caught in the middleâsandwiched between themâso he had to be mindful. But now that they had laid a finger on Jian Dan, how could he let them off?
He did not have time to look at his cell phone, so he was not aware of Jian Danâs current predicament.
Although Ling Xiaoyang knew martial arts, he was not a match for Li Shanqiu, who was from the special forces. A few moves later, Ling Xiaoyang was pummeled to the ground. Nonetheless, he still protected Jian Dan and shielded her with his bodyâ¦
I donât know howMengjiao is doing now. Sheâs in this state because of me. And now, Xiaoyang is beaten up to this extent to protect me, what right do I have to make them do this forme?
Just as the man whipped out a gun and aimed it at Ling Xiaoyangâ¦
Jian Dan picked up a metal shard from the floor and held it against her neck⦠âDonât shoot. Otherwise, Iâll slit my throat right now.â
Jian Dan knew that Mei Xiaolin did not want her to die so easily, so she could only roll the dice on this.
If she was destined to die here today, she hoped that Mengjiao and Xiaoyang would be safe.
âWait!â
Sure enough⦠Mei Xiaolin stopped the man.
âAs long as you let the two of them go, Iâll let you do whatever you want to me! Otherwiseâ¦â Seeing that this move worked, Jian Dan had to strike while the iron was hot⦠In order to make A-Iei Xiaolin believe that she would really do it, Jian Dan deliberately cut herself hard.
âYou said it! Let the two of them go.â
âButâ¦â
The man was hesitant.
âLet them go when I tell you to. My goal is only Jian Dan. They are peripheral to me.â
âBut, Mr. Qin Jizhangâ¦â
âDonât mention Qin Jizhang to me. He turned me into this zombie and still wants to escape unscathed? Donât forget that you work for me, not him.â
âGot it!â
The man untied Mengjiao and dragged her to Jian Danâ¦
Jian Jian suppressed her sadness and said to Xiaoyang, âXiaoyang, help me get Mengjiao out of here!â
âNo, I wonât leave you here alone.â
âXiaoyang, listen to me. Iâ¦â Jian Dan told him what happened last night in a low voice.
An incredulous and pained expression instantly appeared on Xiaoyangâs face.
âSo, I beg of you⦠You must help me save Mengjiao. Otherwise, I wonât be able to rest in peace even if I die.â
âThis is my only wish now, and only you can help me with this wish.â
Jian Dan looked at Xiaoyang solemnly.
âBy saving Mengjiao, you are saving me.â
If anything happened to them today because of her, Jian Dan would never forgive herself.
âPlease, I beg of you.â
Faced with Jian Danâs incessant pleading, Ling Xiaoyang could only give inâ¦
He braced himselfâdespite his own injuriesâto carry Mengjiao in a firemanâs lift. As he was leaving, he felt as if every step he took weighed a thousand poundsâ¦
Littie Jian Dan, donât worry. IâH hide Mengjiao somewhere safe and Iâll come back. Even if I canât save you, Iâll be with youâ¦
Seeing the two of them leave, Jian Dan finally heaved a sigh of relief in her heart and revealed a gratified smileâ¦
âLetâs see if you can smile later.â
When Mei Xiaolin saw that Jian Dan could still laugh at such a moment, resentment rose in her heart.
âTie her up.â
That man dragged Jian Dan and tied her to a chairâ¦
Although Jian Dan was tied to a chair, her expression was still neither servile nor overbearing. As Chu Liyuanâs woman, she could not embarrass him under such circumstances!
Meanwhile, Chu Liyuan had finally finished dealing with the matters at E Media. He saw the voice message that Ling Xiaoyang had left for him on his cell phoneâ¦
He bolted up from the chair instantlyâ¦
He felt all the cells in his body tremble.
Yesterdayâs incident was still fresh in his mind, but something even more serious happened today.
Why didnât Jian Jian tell him? Why did she go alone? Didnât she know the severity of the matter?
Chu Liyuanâs entire body was shrouded in fear⦠He had never felt this way before, not even when he was under a hail of bullets and his life was in danger. But at this moment, as long as he thought of Jian Jianâs predicamentâ¦
Jian Jian, hang on tight.. Iâm coming to save you!
