Chapter 677 Rescue
As she spoke, she took out a dagger and removed its sheath.
The mirror-like gleam of the dagger's blade accentuated Liang Yuxin's crazed expression, making her features appear particularly terrifying.
Seeing her pull out a dagger, Sang Ruo's voice trembled with fear: "Liang Yuxin, you...you mustn't do something reckless! You'll get a harsher sentence if you do this. Aren't you afraid of being arrested again? Adding another crime to the already existing one?"
She thought that by adding another crime to the list, she could deter Liang Yuxin's madness.
But for a prisoner who doesn't care about anything, nothing can threaten them anymore.
"I'll give you my phone, go ahead and call the police if you dare!" Liang Yuxin wasn't afraid of her at all: "You can call the police once or twice, but I can escape three or four times! Let's see who has the last laugh between us!"
They want to trap her with charges?
If it were the Liang Yuxin of the past, she might still be afraid, but for the Liang Yuxin of today, adding crimes upon crimes would only mean a few more years in prison, which she no longer cares about.
Sang Ruo felt that the woman in front of her was completely different from before, both familiar and unfamiliar: "Liang Yuxin, is it really worth it for a man? You've ruined yourself like this, just for that heartless and ungrateful man, Bo Jinzhou? Is it worth it?"
If she hadn't joined forces with Bo Jinzhou, she wouldn't have suffered three years in prison.
She truly hated both of them back then.
She even spent a lot of time and energy dealing with them, but when the tide truly receded, she finally realized that Liang Yuxin had simply loved the wrong person, and that the person she loved was clearly not the real Bo Jinzhou.
Rather, it was the unattainable emotional attachment she held deep in her heart.
It was this obsession that made her hate her so deeply.
But now, she's tired and doesn't want to fight anymore.
"What do you mean Jinzhou is heartless and ungrateful? Aren't you the truly heartless and ungrateful one?" Liang Yuxin was furious when she saw her face: "You should have just died in prison! Why did you come back? Why did you come back to ruin my happiness?"
She and Jinzhou finally got together, but everything was ruined because of Sang Ruo.
Moreover, Jinzhou was also imprisoned by Sang Ruo, forcing her to remarry Chen Anyuan.
If it weren't for her desire to expedite the release of Jinzhou, would she have taken such a risk and made a deal with Minister Chen?
As a result, she got arrested too! How could she not hate that!
Hearing her almost frantic rant, Sang Ruo couldn't help but sneer: "I didn't destroy your happiness. On the contrary, you ruined my peaceful married life. I'm just giving you a taste of your own medicine..."
"Because your happiness was stolen from me."
After all, love that is stolen, no matter how sweet it may be at first, is not truly sweet.
Sooner or later, things will return to normal.
Just as Liang Yuxin angrily raised the dagger in her hand and was about to stab Sang Ruo, the door to her house was suddenly kicked open from the outside.
"Stop it! Let her go!"
A man in a long black trench coat walked straight up to her, intending to take the dagger from Liang Yuxin's hand.
But Liang Yuxin seemed to have seen through his intentions. She shifted her body, causing the man to miss his target: "Who are you? What right do you have to barge into my house and meddle in my business?"
"Who I am is not important." Ignoring her danger, the man said coldly, "Let her go first, and we can talk anything."
Otherwise, there's no point in discussing anything.
Unfortunately, Liang Yuxin, who had been to prison, had already experienced the coldness of human nature there and did not believe him at all: "Who do you think you are? You actually dare to negotiate with me? Why don't you reveal your identity instead of acting all mysterious?"
What she hated most was a man like him who was fussy, wouldn't reveal his identity, and acted mysterious.
"Gong Lian." Seeing that she seemed to be a straightforward person, Gong Lian had a sudden idea: "I think Miss Liang is a straightforward person. I wonder what Miss Liang wants? I, Gong, will do whatever it takes to help you, as long as you release her."
Gong Lian?
Liang Yuxin seemed to have heard the name somewhere before. She remained silent for a moment, then asked warily, "Aren't you Gong Lian, the one who has been pursuing Wen Qingyi for many years?"
She knew this because she had been very close to Wen Qingyi before, and they had even worked together for a period of time after she returned to China.
Therefore, she still had some impression of the name Gong Lian.
Upon hearing Wen Qingyi's name, Gong Lian's expression stiffened for a moment, and he awkwardly admitted, "Yes, I am Gong Lian, the one who has been pursuing Wen Qingyi for many years. Miss Liang, since you know me, you should know what kind of status I have in the Beijing circle."
"Isn't what I've said enough to convince you?"
Liang Yuxin said with a half-smile, "How interesting. The man who pursued Wen Qingyi for so many years suddenly stopped and came to like Sang Ruo instead? What's so good about this Sang Ruo that makes so many of you want to like her?"
"Do you really not know what happens to men who like her? Look at Shen Qingzhuo, and then look at Fang Gan. Aren't they all either dead or seriously injured? If you know what's good for you, you'd better not meddle in other people's business, or I'll target you too!"
There was a hint of madness in her expression; she was unafraid of any threats, clearly determined this time.
She had finally escaped from prison. If she didn't teach Sang Ruo a lesson, wouldn't her escape have been for nothing?
Upon hearing this, Gong Lian couldn't help but scoff: "You think I'm afraid of you?"
As soon as he finished speaking, he used his height advantage of 1.88 meters to kick the dagger out of her hand, then pushed Liang Yuxin aside and rescued Sang Ruo.
Liang Yuxin was surprised that he actually helped Sang Ruo. She was stunned for a moment and tried to stop Gong Lian, but Gong Lian was tall and strong, and she was no match for him.
After Gong Lian rescued Sang Ruo, several of Gong Lian's men arrived at the scene, quickly subdued Liang Yuxin, and took her away.
Sang Ruo was still in shock after being kidnapped from the hospital. It took her a long time to come to her senses, and her voice was filled with lingering fear: "Thank you, Gong Lian."
If it weren't for him today, she would probably have been a lamb to the slaughter again.
She didn't expect that even though Liang Yuxin was already in jail, her hatred for her hadn't diminished at all; it remained just as intense.
"You don't need to thank me. I just wanted to go to the hospital to see you." Gong Lian also happened to witness it: "Who knew that as soon as I got to the hospital, I saw you being taken away by Liang Yuxin? How are you? Are you alright? Are you hurt anywhere?"
He asked several questions in a row, his tone revealing a hint of nervousness, as if he really cared about her.
