After I got the card, it was already dark.
There were no bicycle repair shops nearby, so after thinking about it, she decided to push the bike back.
It took her more than an hour to ride here, and nearly three hours to walk. By the time she got home, it was already 11 p.m. Feng Jianian hadn't returned. She was so hungry that her eyes were blurry, so she quickly cooked two bowls of egg noodles, ate one herself, and saved the other before going to wash up.
Warm water dripped down from above, washing away much of my fatigue, and suddenly I remembered the scene from earlier that day.
The moment Murong Xiao appeared, her world shone brightly.
Although it was only for a moment, it was enough to ignite her life.
But... she was too cowardly and too humble, like dust in the darkness, not even having the courage to speak to him. He must have looked down on her...
She covered her face with a towel.
It was already 12:30 when she finished her work, but Feng Jianian still hadn't returned. She opened her phone and realized that she didn't even have his phone number, what he looked like, what he did for a living, or how his family made a living.
I've been living this life in a daze.
After thinking for a while, she sent a message to Su Ming, asking him where Feng Jianian had gone and whether he would be back tonight.
After the message was sent, the screen gradually dimmed, and no message was sent back.
……………………
A night alley in Huadu.
The rain is falling incessantly.
The woman in the white dress, who had been lying on the ground during the day, was surrounded by several bodyguards. She was breathing weakly, her legs had been broken, and her face had been slashed. She was in so much pain that she was about to faint.
"Young Master, he only has one breath left, shall we continue?" Su Ming walked up to the Rolls-Royce.
The rain obscured Murong Xiao's face, making it impossible to see his expression. Only his calm voice could be heard, as if he were discussing the weather: "Break both of your hands as well."
During the day, those hands pushed the woman.
Although he wasn't interested in that woman and was just playing around with her, she was still the boss's wife of Fengrong Group, so he had to maintain appearances.
Su Ming replied "Yes," and soon a woman's scream rang out.
There was a moment of silence in the car: "The city is too bustling, it's not suitable for someone like her who pursues quality. Let's send her to jail. As for her relatives, find some excuse to send them there too."
This is tantamount to destroying one's family and clan; it's a ruthless tactic they've always employed.
"clear."
Su Ming silently got into the passenger seat, instructed the driver to head to Fengjia Village, and took out his phone.
"Young Master, this is a text message from Madam, sent half an hour ago." Su Ming handed the phone to Murong Xiao.
Murong Xiao glanced at the screen and chuckled. "He's only been gone for a day, and he's already lost his patience? Looks like it's not as fun as I thought."
"Tell her I'm working overtime tonight and won't be coming home." His eyes were deep and somewhat dull.
The driver quickly made a U-turn ahead, preparing to take the BOSS back to his usual residence in Haitang Bay.
"Who told you to turn around?" A cold voice rang out from the back seat.
The driver shuddered, breaking out in a cold sweat, and looked pleadingly at Su Ming beside him. Su Ming understood and asked gently, "Understood, we'll head back to Fengjia Village now."
An hour later, the Rolls-Royce stopped in front of the bungalows in Fengjia Village.
However--
"Young Master, Madam...she's asleep again?" Looking at the dark farmhouse, Su Ming was shocked once more.
Just an hour ago she was asking if I was going to reply, and now that I am, she's gone back to sleep?
I must say, that wife has a lot of nerve...
"Heh." Murong Xiao sneered. He loosened his tie, concealing the glint in his eyes. It seemed this woman was more composed than he had imagined. In that case, he might as well let her wait a little longer.
"Back to Haitang Bay."
The atmosphere inside the car was inexplicably oppressive. Su Ming and the driver didn't dare to breathe and silently drove the car towards the city.
……………………
Xiang Jin slept very restlessly that night.
One moment she's in prison, the next she's at the Xiang family's house, and then she's Murong Xiao... In her dreams, she's filled with extreme fear and unease, wanting to grasp at something, but unable to reach anything.
She woke up at just past 6 a.m., hurriedly dressed, and found that the house was still empty; Feng Jianian had not returned.
Xiang Jin was stunned for a moment, then heated up the noodles and ate them. She hung up the clean sheets and clothes and tidied up the area around the house.
While tidying up, she discovered that the area around the house was quite spacious, with a large open space. After thinking for a moment, she went to her neighbor's house, cut down a few peach trees, and planted them. She thought that by next spring, the area would be full of peach blossoms.
The neighbor, surnamed Liu, knew she was Feng Jianian's wife and warmly invited her in to sit down, offering her fruit and melon seeds. When she left, he even gave her a box of dumplings to take with her.
Xiang Jin was very happy; she didn't have to cook dinner that night, hahaha.
By the time everything was tidied up, it was already evening, and it started raining again. Xiang Jin put away the clothes and sheets and was about to close the door when two men walked over.
"Hey, that sickly man's wife is quite pretty."
"Yes, what a pity. Such a beautiful flower, but no one cares about it. Tsk tsk."
The two men stared at Xiang Jin with lustful eyes.
Xiang Jin realized something was wrong and quickly ran back to close the door. Just as it was about to close, the two of them kicked the door open.
"You're quite the feisty little wife, aren't you? I like it. Let me pamper you properly." The fat man loosened his collar, grinned lewdly, and began to take off his clothes.
The thin man tried to grab Xiang Jin's hand, but Xiang Jin bit him hard. He cursed in pain, wishing he could devour Xiang Jin alive.
Xiang Jin's face turned pale, and her lips were tightly pressed together.
To everyone's surprise, there was such a bully in the simple and honest Fengjia Village. There were few people passing by, and she couldn't speak or call for help. Her house was full of old furniture with broken arms and legs, and she didn't even have anything to defend herself.
Unless... you run to the bedroom as fast as you can and lock the door!
But if we fail, it will be like lambs to the slaughter.
Now that things have come to this, there's no other way but to take a gamble!
Taking advantage of the two men's inattention, she ran desperately towards the bedroom. Just as she was about to close the door, a pair of hands suddenly grabbed her clothes, and with a forceful kick, the door was kicked open. Xiang Jin was pushed back several steps by the force and then fell directly onto the bed.
It failed!
This means she is doomed!
"Little wife, stop struggling, we'll make you happy." The two men licked their lips and pounced on Xiang Jin.
Just when Xiang Jin was in utter despair, a sound suddenly came from the living room.
"Who?" Just as the fat and thin men were about to turn around, a fist suddenly punched both of them in the face.
The two screamed and fell to the ground.
Just as they were about to get up, a barrage of punches and kicks rained down on them. The opponent was ruthless and powerful, as if he had been trained. The two of them were no match for him.
"Feng Jianian, I was wrong, I was wrong, I'll never do it again!" The fat man begged for forgiveness repeatedly, while the thin man trembled.
"Ying Jianming, if you don't want to die, stay far away from my house." The man's voice seemed to come from hell.
