She couldn't help but yell at him at the top of her lungs, pointing her finger at Chu Xinrou, "She's the daughter of the Chu family. She's Chu Xinrou. It was her father who caused our Lu family to go bankrupt. I went to the Chu family to ask for an explanation, but was kicked out. I swore at that time that I would make the Chu family pay the price."

Lu Wanying paused, her face filled with sadness, as if lost in the past. "Perhaps it's because of my overwhelming hatred that the Chu family is wary of me. Since they sent someone to try to... take pictures to hold something against me, they can use them to blackmail me if I become powerful in the future."

At that time, she was only in the second grade of junior high school, 14 years old, but she experienced these unbearable things.

In her heart, the boy in front of her was like a god, who saved her innocence and her life.

"Later, it was you who saved me from them." Lu Wanying looked at him with mixed emotions.

The crystal tears in her eyes made An Xinghe heartbroken.

"But the person you want to rescue today is the daughter of the original perpetrator." Lu Wanying's voice suddenly became sharp and sarcastic, mixed with a hint of disappointment and sadness.

Tears streamed from her eyes.

The tears made her face look even paler.

Sliding across her lips and flowing into her body.

Her heart sank...

Chu Xinrou, who was standing aside, remained indifferent to Lu Wanying's words and just looked at him anxiously.

He and Lu Wanying have such a past, so he wouldn't not plan to save her, right?

Seeing her heartbroken look, An Xinghe's hands suddenly clenched and his eyes fell on the tied Chu Xinrou.

His lips moved slightly, but he didn't say anything. Then he moved them again, but still didn't say anything, as if he wanted to say something but hesitated.

The current situation cannot be described in a few words.

If you stay for one more second, something unexpected might happen.

By then, the police will come and the evidence will be conclusive, so he really can't save her.

He had no choice but to ignore her sadness and disappointment and said coldly, "Let her go."

Lu Wanying seemed to be able to hear the sound of her heart breaking. She didn't know why she felt sad. Perhaps the person in front of her was just standing on the side of justice.

Two years ago, she was in danger, and he saved her only because of the justice in his heart;

Two years later, Chu Xinrou was in danger, and he saved her out of justice in his heart;

The grudge between her and Chu Xinrou had nothing to do with him.

Although she had let it go, she still couldn't help feeling sad and lost. She staggered several steps, clenched and unclenched the knife behind her, and it fell to the ground with a thud.

She gave him a look that was filled with all sorts of emotions.

She lowered her head and was about to run past him, but he suddenly grabbed her wrist and cautiously reminded her, "Put the knife away."

There must not be any trace of kidnapping here.

The faint expectation in Lu Wanying's eyes suddenly disappeared.

She had thought he would...would stand by her.

It turned out that she was overthinking it.

She turned around and picked up the knife, and in a daze she accidentally cut her hand, and blood dripped onto the ground.

She didn't feel any pain at all. She put the knife into her bag, pressed the wound on her ring finger with her middle finger, and ran out without stopping.

An Xinghe noticed the blood on the ground and looked at her leaving back with heartache.

Chu Xinrou watched Lu Wanying leave and suddenly breathed a sigh of relief.

She looked at him standing there and said gratefully, "Thank you, benefactor. Can you untie me first?"

It hurts so much for her to be tied up.

She must settle this account with Lu Wanying.

An Xinghe lowered his eyes slightly, wiped the blood off the ground with his foot, and said, "You don't have to think of me as a benefactor. That's not my intention."

Chu Xinrou was confused and looked at him in confusion.

After he had destroyed all the evidence, he untied her and held the rope in his hand.

Chu Xinrou was finally able to move freely. She stretched her body and felt a little sore.

"Benefactor, what is your name?" Chu Xinrou really wanted to repay him.

"You don't need to know." An Xinghe said distantly.

After he finished speaking, he was about to leave. Chu Xinrou followed him closely, mumbling, "Since you don't want to tell me your name, then you must give me a chance to repay you."

An Xinghe suddenly stopped and asked, "Do you really want to repay me?"

"certainly."

"Don't tell anyone about this. Just... pretend it never happened."

Chu Xinrou's smile disappeared in a second after hearing his words.

"Impossible. Lu Wanying kidnapped me. She has committed the crime of kidnapping and should be punished by law." Chu Xinrou said gritting her teeth.

Lu Wanying had just made her experience an unprecedented panic in her life. A single thought separated her from the living and the dead.

How could she let Lu Wanying go?

"What evidence do you have?" An Xinghe's eyes darkened and he asked.

Chu Xinrou was stunned for a moment, then answered without hesitation, "You witnessed the entire process of her kidnapping me, so you are a witness."

An Xinghe snorted coldly with sarcasm.

Chu Xinrou didn't quite understand what he was thinking, so she continued, "You saved me and testified for me. Don't worry, our Chu family will never treat you unfairly. Whether it's a job, a mansion, or a check, whatever you want, our Chu family can satisfy you. This is my small token of appreciation."

An Xinghe taunted, "Miss Chu, are you planning to bribe me with dirty money?"

Dirty money?

Chu Xinrou frowned, her expression becoming serious. "What do you mean by that? Are you planning to stand on Lu Wanying's side? You just saw her kidnapping me, even murdering me. If it weren't for you, I would have died."

"Miss Chu, since you know who saved you, shouldn't you repay the favor according to my requirements?" An Xinghe asked back.

Chu Xinrou now completely understood his thoughts. From the moment he wiped the blood off the ground with his foot, he had never thought of testifying for her.

"You want me to let Lu Wanying go? Impossible." Chu Xinrou flatly refused.

An Xinghe looked at her coldly, "Ms. Chu, I'm not discussing with you, I'm informing you."

"Since you saved me just now, why are you unwilling to testify for me? I rewarded you with a huge fortune, why did you help Lu Wanying?" Chu Xinrou asked in confusion.

This was not the first time that An Xinghe faced the temptation of wealth, but there was no trace of desire in his eyes.

"No reason. If you tell the police what happened today, I don't mind letting them know what happened two years ago. You have no evidence to prove that you were kidnapped by Lu Wanying, but I... have evidence from that year. If I put it online, your Chu family is a well-known company, and your father is the one in power who used such ruthless means. Even if the attempt fails, the Chu family's reputation will inevitably be affected. You should know what to do now."

An Xinghe was threatening her.
