Qiao Zhen frowned, and couldn't help but take a step back, looking at him warily.

"What, you think five thousand is too expensive? Then don't break my things!"

The man seemed to be in the right and started shouting loudly, his eyes wandering all over Qiao Zhen's body as he spoke, looking quite disgusting.

Qiao Zhen was shocked by his actions, and at the same time, alarm bells went off in her mind because of his gaze.

Considering her current precarious situation, Qiao Zhen gritted her teeth and said, "Five thousand yuan it is, I'll transfer it to you."

After all, it's so dark now, and the longer Qiao Zhen stays here alone, the greater the danger she will face.

The man merely stroked his chin lewdly, then pulled out his phone with a wicked grin and handed the payment QR code to Qiao Zhen.

Qiao Zhen didn't dare to delay for a moment. After scanning the QR code, she quickly transferred the money to him and then prepared to leave.

"Hey...wait a minute, what's the rush?"

After receiving the money, the man's face broke into a lewd smile, and he became even more smug than before. He suddenly grabbed Qiao Zhen's hand.

What are you going to do?

When the man grabbed Qiao Zhen's hand, she immediately felt disgusted and jumped to the side, looking at him with great vigilance.

The man was furious at her expression of disgust and frowned as he cursed.

"What kind of fucking attitude is this? I'm doing you a favor by even talking to you tonight, don't push your luck!"

Upon hearing this, Qiao Zhen dared not get angry, but instead nervously assessed the distance between the car and herself.

Upon realizing there was still a long way to go, alarm bells went off in Qiao Zhen's mind. She forced a smile while secretly taking two steps back.

"Sir, how much more money do you want?"

The man scoffed at these words and curled his lip.

"Of course, the more money the better, but I'm already satisfied with this amount. I want much more than this."

After the man finished speaking, he smiled and took a step towards Qiao Zhen, making a lewd sound: "How about this, why don't you stay with me for another night?"

This is absolutely outrageous!

Qiao Zhen was furious, but she also knew very well that as a girl, she was no match for a man in terms of strength.

So escaping won't be that easy.

"I'm sorry, sir, I can't do that. But if you really want some, I can order a few for you."

Qiao Zhen took a deep breath and forced her voice to remain steady.

The man, however, was completely unimpressed. He let out a soft "Ouch!" and then narrowed his eyes, saying, "How can this be? None of those women are as exciting as you."

Upon hearing this, Qiao Zhen lowered her head and clenched her fists tightly.

"Excuse me, sir..."

Qiao Zhen took a breath and was just about to say something to stall for time when, halfway through her sentence, she suddenly heard a man's scream in front of her.

"Damn it!"

The man covered his face and cried out in pain. Qiao Zhen quickly looked up and saw Lu Zheng frowning. She kicked the man aside.

"How dare you hit me?" The man was badly injured from the fall. He got up in pain, covering his face, and stared at Lu Zheng in disbelief.

"Because you deserve to be hit, you scum."

Lu Zheng's tone remained calm, but his gaze sent chills down one's spine.

"Who are you...?"

The man was furious when he saw Lu Zheng dressed in a suit and tie. He also underestimated Lu Zheng's skills and threw a punch at him.

Lu Zheng reacted quickly, dodging the attack in an instant. He then grabbed Lu Zheng's arm, pulled him to the side, and kicked him in the stomach.

"ah!!"

The man's screams were even louder than before. He collapsed heavily to the ground, unable to speak due to the pain.

"You dare touch my woman? You must have nothing better to do."

Lu Zheng's face showed disgust, but when he saw Qiao Zhen who was terrified, he quickly walked over and hugged her.

Are you alright? Are you hurt?

Feeling Lu Zheng's warm embrace, Qiao Zhen was still a little unsettled and shook her head, her body trembling.

"No... I'm fine."

Qiao Zhen swallowed hard, still feeling a lingering fear. Although she tried to appear calm on the surface, her pale face betrayed her inner turmoil.

After all, who wouldn't be scared after experiencing something like this late at night?

"It's okay, I'm here." Seeing Qiao Zhen like this, Lu Zheng felt a pang of heartache and hugged her even tighter.

On the other side, the man struggled to his feet. Seeing that Lu Zheng was not someone to be trifled with, he wanted to take the opportunity to slip away quickly.

"Stop right there! Who said you could leave?"

Lu Zheng suddenly spoke, startling the man in front of him. But stubborn as ever, he still said, "What, why should I listen to you?"

Upon hearing this, Lu Zheng patted Qiao Zhen's shoulder, gesturing for her to get into the car, and then walked over to the man's side: "Are you itchy again?"

With just that one sentence, the man's expression immediately changed. He dropped his previous stubbornness and put on a fawning smile.

"Brother, I was blind and offended your wife. Please be magnanimous and don't hold it against me."

Seeing the man's ingratiating expression, Lu Zheng felt even heavier, and his brows furrowed even more.

If he hadn't arrived in time, would that man still have been so ingratiating towards Qiao Zhen?

Thinking of this, an unnamed fire welled up inside him, and Lu Zheng raised his hand and punched the man again.

The man had no way to dodge, let out another scream, and collapsed to the side.
