Chapter 693 Small World 14 - Determination
The snow-white blade light emitted a dazzling cold light under the incandescent lamp!
At the critical moment, Ye Rou grabbed the folder from the secretary's hand and threw it at the middle-aged man.
The blue folder flew out like a blade, hitting the middle-aged man's wrist, scraping his flesh and leaving a trail of blood.
The middle-aged man loosened his wrist and the fruit knife fell to the ground with a bang.
Jiang Chen pushed Zhao Yueling away and grabbed the middle-aged man who was still struggling to get up.
All the actions were completed almost in the blink of an eye. Everyone was stunned. After they reacted, they were all amazed and applauded.
"Mr. Ye, you are so amazing."
"Is this martial arts?" Some foreign technicians were stunned and asked the people around them blankly.
“…”
Ye Rou brought the topic back to where it had strayed: "Call the police."
A police car roared over.
The middle-aged man was handcuffed and seemed to have come back to his senses from his crazy state. He began to apologize again and again, saying that he was impulsive and begging Ye Rou for forgiveness.
But after seeing him slashing people with a knife, no one sympathized with him anymore.
Police: "We have taken this person away. Those present need to go to the police station to make a statement."
Ye Rou tilted her head slightly to stare at Zhao Yueling, who was so frightened that her legs were weak and she hadn't even stood up yet. She said coldly, "I suspect this girl is in cahoots with him."
The color drained from Zhao Yueling's face as she frantically explained, "No, I don't know him at all!"
The secretary sneered, "You're not. Then why did you speak up for him just now? I think you volunteered to be a hostage, just to help him blackmail Mr. Ye!"
"I was also deceived by him. I thought he really was..." Zhao Yueling looked at Jiang Chen in panic, pitifully: "Senior, senior, please help me explain, I really don't know him."
Before Jiang Chen could speak, Ye Rou asked, "You're not an employee of Ye's Company, so why are you on the 22nd floor?"
Zhao Yueling was stunned.
Seeing this, the police immediately guessed that something was wrong and said coldly, "Take her away too."
On the way to the police station to take a statement, Jiang Chen leaned over and pinched Ye's soft and tender face, asking her, "Why didn't you let me speak just now? Do you think I would plead for her?"
Without outsiders around, the evil thoughts in Ye Rou's bones burst out.
Ye Rou is the most vengeful person. She certainly knows that Zhao Yueling will not have any contact with the middle-aged man. She did it on purpose.
Yesterday at the gate of University A, Zhao Yueling looked at her legs with sympathy and asked Ye Rou to remember her.
Ye Rou hates it most when people look at her legs like that!
Besides, if she hadn't reacted quickly just now, Jiang Chen would have been held back by Zhao Yueling and would have been hit by the middle-aged man.
When she thought of this, Ye Rou's heartbeat became a little erratic, and she wanted to teach her a lesson.
She said with a sour tone, "After all, you are my junior sister from the same school and major. If I keep calling you senior, I'm sure you won't be soft-hearted."
"I don't want to put you in a difficult position and make the decision for you. Are you angry?"
She became angrier and angrier as she spoke, staring at Jiang Chen.
Jiang Chen was so angry that he laughed.
This is what it means to put the blame on someone else.
He pinched the heartless girl's face. Her touch was soft and tender, unlike his own thick skin. He was afraid of hurting her, so he didn't use much strength, just pressed it a little, and said:
"I have no intention of pleading for her."
Jiang Chen hated teammates who were always dragging him down, and Zhao Yueling's sudden appearance in Ye's Building today must have had ulterior motives. If she had gone back to class properly, she wouldn't have encountered these things.
He said in a deep voice: "I suspect that person was instigated."
Ye Rou's eyes darkened slightly. "I'll ask the police to check if anyone has contacted him recently."
It was already dark when we came out of the police station.
Zhao Yueling got into big trouble and didn't dare to contact her parents, so she called the school counselor.
The counselor rushed over and happened to run into Ye Rou and Jiang Chen who had just finished taking their statements.
She quickly stepped forward and said, "Mr. Ye, I'm sorry that Yue Ling has caused you trouble. This child is not a bad person, it's just that... she was confused for a moment."
"She's not just confused for a moment." Ye Rou's eyes were cold. "I hope your school can give me a satisfactory answer to this matter."
The girl was in her early twenties and sat in a wheelchair, but she looked very imposing and no one could look down on her.
She is the one in charge of the Ye family, and no one dares to disobey her.
The instructor knew that this was no longer Zhao Yueling's personal matter.
She secretly cursed Zhao Yueling for being stupid, but she kept saying, "I know. University A will definitely give you a satisfactory answer."
Ye Rou smiled indifferently, and Jiang Chen pushed Ye Rou away.
——
After a night of interrogation, the police called Ye Rou.
Ye Rou looked at the caller ID, pushed away the clingy head, answered the phone, and said politely, "Uncle Chen."
"Xiao Rou!" The man on the other end of the phone said in a rough and bold voice: "Why didn't you tell Uncle Chen about such a big thing?"
Ye Rou's ears hurt from the loud shouting. She moved away a little and said, "It's just a small matter. There's no need to alarm you."
"Little girl, why are you being so polite to your Uncle Chen? Think about the time when your father and I climbed trees to pick birds and went into the water to catch fish. We grew up wearing the same pants and were closer than brothers. Your father..."
Ye Rou knew that Uncle Chen had a habit of reminiscing endlessly about the past, so she quickly asked, "Uncle Chen, has the interrogation of that man been completed?"
"Ah...yes, that kid has confessed everything. He's even more timid than a rabbit and dared to scare people with a knife."
Ye Rou's grip on the quilt tightened slightly. Jiang Chen noticed that she was nervous, so he hugged her and patted her back.
As if gaining some support from Jiang Chen's embrace, Ye Rou said in a very cold voice:
"Is it related to him?"
The three people present knew who "he" was - the mysterious man who had been harassing Ye Rou for seven years.
There was a positive answer from the other end of the phone.
"That bastard did it. He was fired by you and has been holding a grudge against you. I don't know how that bastard found out about it, so he contacted him and promised him a large sum of money, asking him to bring a knife to scare you."
At the end of the sentence, the voice on the other end was accompanied by the sound of grinding teeth.
Ye Rou got a positive answer and her face turned extremely cold.
Uncle Chen continued to persuade her, "This guy's behavior has been getting more and more extreme recently. He caused a car accident and instigated someone to threaten you with a knife... Xiaorou, listen to Uncle Chen's advice. Leave this guy to Uncle Chen. Uncle Chen promises to catch him for you."
Ye Rou lowered her eyes and said calmly, "Uncle Chen, thank you. You've worked hard today."
She politely hung up the phone.
Jiang Chen opened his arms and raised his eyebrows at her with a wicked expression.
Ye Rou threw herself into his arms, buried her face in his chest, and was silent for a while before suddenly saying:
"I must catch him with my own hands and grind him to dust."
For seven years, Ye Rou was being watched by someone hiding in the dark, and a sticky and disgusting feeling kept clinging to her.
Her beloved grandfather was also killed because of this.
Ye Rou was like a frightened bird, wanting revenge but afraid of implicating those around her, so she held her hands and feet. However, that man had no scruples, unscrupulously threatening and intimidating her, hiding in the shadows and admiring her vulnerability and fear...
Jiang Chen hugged her tightly, and her fear, hatred... were all transmitted to him through their skin.
He was silent for a while, then suddenly said, "Actually, I..."
Before she could finish her words, she was blocked by soft red lips.
Lips and tongues intertwined, a night of spring breeze.
