Chapter 126 - 126 123 Women Should Be Harder on Themselves_3
?Chapter 126: Chapter 123 Women Should Be Harder on Themselves_3 Chapter 126: Chapter 123 Women Should Be Harder on Themselves_3 Suddenly, she felt her head wasn’t so muddled anymore.
It seemed that standing up and taking a few steps wasn’t as difficult as before.
Once she staggered out of the private room, Wenyan immediately dialed the emergency number.
Even though Shen Jingchuan told her not to hang up the phone, the place was really too convoluted. If she didn’t call for help herself, who knew when or where she would encounter a living waiter.
Now that she thought about it, she felt like she had slapped her own face.
When she had first arrived, she thought the place quiet enough for serious conversations.
Turns out, it was actually more suitable for crimes!
After struggling to explain her situation to the police, her stamina was depleted once again.
There was no other choice but to inhale another puff of self-defense spray to clear her head.
As she groped her way toward the lobby, Wenyan suddenly saw a figure in front of her.
Her first reaction was to seek help.
Fortunately, her IQ hadn’t crashed along with her mobility.
She couldn’t be sure whether the figure ahead was a person or a ghost.
What if it wasn’t a staff member from this teahouse but an accomplice of that bastard?
Wouldn’t she be walking straight into a trap?
Therefore, Wenyan found a place to hide.
She didn’t know what kind of trees they were.
But they were trimmed neatly into round shapes with lush branches and leaves, perfect for concealing her figure.
She hid behind those two small trees, only relaxing when she saw the figure pass by.
But just as she struggled to stand and prepare to leave, a hand suddenly landed on her shoulder.
God damn it, she loathed these kinds of scares the most!
This unexpected hand nearly sent her back to a past life.
She turned slowly and saw that it was a young man who had tapped her.
And he seemed somewhat familiar, but she couldn’t for the life of her remember where she had seen him before.
Just as she met his eyes, he spoke up.
“Miss, are you alright? You don’t look very comfortable. Do you need me to help you to your room to rest?”
No thanks! At this point, Wenyan didn’t dare trust any stranger offering help, no matter who they were.
She shook her head, “No need, you can go. I’m waiting for someone.”
“So you’re waiting for someone,” the man sized up Wenyan, a smile curling upon his lips, “But it’s too dark here, not a good place to wait. How about I take you somewhere brighter first?”
“…” Wenyan looked at the man in front of her, feeling more and more that something was off about him.
If he wanted to help, why smile like that?
It was clearly a look of ill intent.
After thinking, she tightened her grip on her self-defense spray.
Right or wrong, she preferred facing a judge for injuring someone rather than ending up seeing the coroner due to negligence.
‘Hiss, hiss, hiss,’ three sounds rang out.
Wenyan successfully sprayed the man three times.
He was instantly overcome, unable to even open his eyes.
Wenyan seized the opportunity to escape.
But the man refused to give in, grabbing her by the neck and pulling her back.
Though his eyes were incapacitated now, his strength outmatched Wenyan’s.
It didn’t take much for Wenyan’s self-defense spray to be knocked out of her hand.
As the two struggled, a voice suddenly came from not far away!
It appeared to be a waiter from the teahouse: “Sir, Miss, what’s happening? Do you need help?!”
Wenyan wanted to call for help, but the man covered her mouth.
Not only that, he even said,
“No need, my wife is just arguing with me. I’ll coax her and it’ll be fine, you can go on with your work.”
To prove the so-called ‘husband and wife’ relationship, the man forcibly pulled the feeble Wenyan into his embrace.
The waiter seemed to believe the man’s words, or perhaps not, but quickly left the place.
–
Shen Jingchuan drove at breakneck speed all the way.
Luckily, the address where Wenyan was located was not far from the Shen Family villa.
Putting the pedal to the metal, Shen Jingchuan arrived in about ten minutes.
Using the location sharing on the navigation system, Shen Jingchuan swiftly located Wenyan.
But when he arrived at the scene of the incident, he only saw two people lying on the ground.
A man was groaning in agony on the ground, still alive.
And lying next to him, Wenyan was motionless and silent.
When he saw that scene, Shen Jingchuan’s heart stopped beating.
As he rushed over and crouched down, he saw Wenyan’s face covered in blood.
Chaos stormed through Shen Jingchuan’s mind at that moment!
He lost his voice, not knowing how to utter the two syllables of ‘Wenyan.’
His eyes reddened! They even began to moisten.
But just then, Wenyan who was laying on the ground suddenly took a deep breath.
“Whew, I’m exhausted. You’re finally here; waiting for you was so hard.”
