âF*ck! You little b*tch, why arenât you opening the door? Are you trying to test my patience? Iâll kick the door open!â
Qiao Chen could clearly hear the manâs furious roars and the sound of him slamming the door.
Qiao Chen snapped out of his daze and put on his jacket immediately. His tone was sullen. âWhere are you?â
âIâm in the bathroom at home.â Xu Wan said in a broken voice. It was filled with fear and helplessness.
âWait for me!â Qiao Chen gritted his teeth, pushed open the door, and sprinted out of the room.
Xu Wanâs terrified voice instantly pricked his heart. When he thought of Xu Wan being in such a frightening situation, Qiao Chen felt his blood boil. He wished he could immediately fly to Xu Wanâs side.
After calling Ah De over, Qiao Chen rushed to Xu Wanâs place.
âDrive faster! Havenât you eaten?â Qiao Chenâs expression was extremely nasty and his tone was icy.
âI;m already driving at the maximum speed, Third Master!â Ah De gritted his teeth and said, ignoring the astonished gazes of the pedestrians. He drove at such a high speed that the car could have taken off and flew if it had wings.
Xu Wan curled up in the bathroomâs corner. She had already used the mop to block the door, although it was probably useless.
She had just shattered the mirror and held onto a shard. She thought of taking that despicable man down with herself if he actually rushed in!
Her delicate hand gripped the glass shard tightly, which made a bloody cut on her tender skin. It was a ghastly sight.
Qiao Chen. Where are you?
At that moment, Xu Wan seemed like she was waiting for a messiah. She kept reciting Qiao Chenâs name in her heart. As if this was the only name that could give her the courage to persevere.
The bathroom door was still quite sturdy. It had taken several hits from the man. However, if this went on, it would definitely not hold up!
Xu Wanâs lips trembled. She gritted her teeth stubbornly, with her gaze fixed on the bathroom door.
Bang! The burly man still broke the door!
Xu Wan screamed and raised the glass shard. âGet lost, donât come over!â
Gao Hu finally knocked open the door and entered. The first thing he saw was Xu Wan curling up in the corner. The woman was wearing a tight-fitting shirt, which accentuated her perfect figure. He licked his lips excitedly. His eyes were filled with ferocity.
âYou made me wait for so long. Hurry up and apologize to me! Come, play with me and Iâll forgive you!â Gao Hu walked over with a perverted smile and reached out to grab Xu Wan.
Xu Wan struggled with all her might as she waved the glass shards around. The shards accidentally cut Gao Huâs cheek, and deepened the wound on Xu Wanâs hand. Blood dripped down and stained the bathroom floor.
Gao Hu felt the stinging pain on his face and his rage instantly flared up. He raised his hand to give Xu Wan a tight slap.
Just as he was about to slap her cheek, a hand suddenly grabbed Gao Huâs wrist. Then, that hand exerted some strength, and dislocated Gao Huâs wrist-bone with a âcrackâ.
Gao Hu let out a horrifying shriek and cursed, âF*ck you!â He turned around and swung his elbow towards the face of the person behind him.
Xu Wanâs pupils constricted abruptly. âQiao Chen, be careful!â
Qiao Chen snorted and reacted promptly. He tilted his body slightly to dodge Gao Huâs attack and then raised his leg to sweep at Gao Huâs legs.
Evidently, Qiao Chen had been specially trained in martial arts. His moves were deft and orderly. Needless to say, he could easily deal with someone like Gao Hu, who only used brute force.
Soon, Gao Hu flopped on the bathroom floor. Qiao Chen said to Ah De, who was standing outside the bathroom and could not make a move in time, âDrag him out and wait for me to deal with him later.â
Ah De stood dumbfounded as he watched his boss subdue the man in a few moves. He didnât even need to do anything. He felt a little embarrassed.
After Qiao Chen and he arrived at Xu Wanâs place, they immediately dragged the estate manager out of his office. That guy was shrieking like a pig being slaughtered. He thought that Qiao Chen and Ah De were kidnappers.
Then, Qiao Chen and Ah De got the keys from the estate management and brought it to Xu Wanâs house.
After opening the door, Qiao Chen rushed in. Ah De had never seen Qiao Chen so anxious.
Gao Hu was dragged out. Qiao Chen saw bloodstains all over the bathroom floor. He saw Xu Wan, who was curled up in a corner, shivering. His heart ached. He whispered, afraid that he would scare Xu Wan, âDonât be afraid. Iâm here. Itâs okay.â
This âdonât be afraidâ stunned Xu Wan. She threw away the glass shard in her hand and burst into tears. âQiao Chen!â
Qiao Chen walked forward and hugged Xu Wan tightly. He could feel Xu Wan trembling violently in his arms.
âIâve been late.â
Qiao Chen sprinted madly along the way, but he still felt that he was too late.
He had let her suffer.
After Xu Wan finished bawling, she wept softly. She was still lying in Qiao Chenâs arms, hugging him and refusing to let go.
She was so traumatized. Qiao Chenâs embrace gave her a sense of security. For the first time in her life, she actually felt reliant on a man she didnât really like..
