Chapter 46 Danger and endless despair overwhelmed her.
Yu Wu walked quickly ahead, with Zhou Jin following closely behind. He suddenly reached out and grabbed Yu Wu's hair, revealing his hand bones and the veins of his fingers.
Yu Wu struggled, her hair being pulled and stinging her scalp, her heart pounding so hard it felt like it would jump out of her chest.
The situation was getting out of control. Zhou Jin, like a bloodthirsty beast, reached out and grabbed Yu Wu's shoulder, trying to force her to face him.
His face was fierce, his eyes blazing with barely contained fury, and his foul breath brushed against Yu Wu's face. "You slut! Stop pretending to be innocent! Are you coming with me or not?"
Just then, a security guard happened to be passing by. Yu Wu, like a drowning person grasping at a straw, immediately cried out for help: "Security guard!"
The young security guard noticed the commotion and immediately ran over to inquire about the situation.
Zhou Jin's face was terrifyingly gloomy, his eyes filled with a sinister glint. He cursed "bitch" and turned to leave.
The young security guard stepped forward and stopped him, and Yu Wu took the opportunity to call the police.
*
Police station.
Yu Wu looked exhausted, supporting her head with her hands. "I've said it three times already. He's the one who caused me trouble, spoke disrespectfully to me, and even laid a hand on me."
The young policeman looked troubled and unsure of what to do. "The surveillance cameras weren't on. This gentleman said you're slandering him; he was just passing by."
The security guard who came to testify was quite far away at the time, and by the time he got closer, Zhou Jin had already let go of his hand, so he couldn't provide much evidence.
Just as things were at a stalemate, someone pushed the door open, and a middle-aged man of high status beckoned to Zhou Jin, "Little Zhou, come here."
Upon seeing the newcomer, the young policeman immediately stood up and respectfully greeted, "Chief."
Zhou Jin stood up, met Yu Wu's eyes defiantly, and even made some threats with a sense of arrogance.
"Cheap goods."
"You can't do anything about me."
Yu Wu pursed her lips and watched helplessly as Zhou Jin swaggered out.
The young policeman glanced at the gloomy fog, then at the security guard testifying, and finally sat down, unable to speak. Faced with such a vast network of intertwined interests, the power of an individual was utterly insignificant.
Ten minutes later, the young policeman answered a phone call, respectfully said "okay" a few times, and then said to Yu Wu, "You can go back now."
Yu Wu asked, "What happened to that person? What should we do with them?"
The young police officer looked helpless. "Ma'am, there's insufficient evidence. He's already gone."
Yu Wu understood instantly, and suddenly remembered the rumors she had heard about Zhou Jin since high school.
Zhou Jinjia has deep and complex connections in both the legitimate and criminal worlds.
She had just walked out of the police station and gotten into her car when she received a text message from an unknown number on her phone.
Next time, you'll definitely fall into my trap.
She expressionlessly blacklisted the number, set the car on fire, and drove away.

Once home, Yu Wu went straight into the shower. She washed herself several times carefully, thoroughly cleaning all the skin that had come into contact with Zhou Jin.
After leaving the shower, with water dripping from her hair, she ran to the living room door to check if the lock was secure.
After doing all that, she casually dried her hair with a towel, then sat cross-legged on the sofa, holding her phone and staring blankly into space.
Her fingertip hovered over Cheng Yi's message bar, the cold light of the phone reflecting on her hesitant face.
After a while, she typed out a few words.
Are you busy?
Three minutes later, Yu Wu was almost losing her patience when the reply came: "Okay, don't wait for me tonight."
Yu Wu's gaze lingered on that sentence for a long time before she replied with a simple "okay".
Cheng Yi is very busy, so she shouldn't bother him.
Even at this moment, she misses him very much.
I want to hug him.
Today is Wednesday. Maybe we can find out what Chengyi is thinking after his meeting on Friday.
*
Life went on as usual. These past few days, Cheng Yi had been coming home later and later. Whenever he went to bed, Yu Wu would always drowsily snuggle into his warm embrace, as if it had become a muscle memory. She still had nightmares every night, but when she woke up, she no longer ran to the living room door to check.
Back then, Cheng Yi would work with headphones on by the bedside. He would also put down his work to comfort her, gently stroking her back, checking on her every now and then, and leaving a few warm kisses. She would usually become less afraid, and listening to Cheng Yi's deliberately lowered, pleasant English voice, she would quickly fall asleep again.
On Friday morning, Yu Wu was still half asleep when Cheng Yi woke her up.
She thought she was dreaming; the damp, warm touch felt so real. The moment came suddenly, and she snapped her eyes open.
A few rays of morning light peeked in through the gaps in the white curtains, immersing the entire room in a gentle tranquility.
"Awake?" Cheng Yi grabbed a tissue from the bedside table, wiped his lips, and kissed her eyes.
Yu Wu turned her head away to avoid it, letting out a weak and lazy "hmm".
He probed downwards with his fingertips, giving her a little time to adjust. The veins on the back of his hand bulged, and then he lowered his hand, causing Yu Wu to let out a muffled groan.
Two young bodies, burning hot, were intertwined.
Cheng Yi was clearly in high spirits, using all sorts of tricks to torment Yu Wu, causing Yu Wu to beg for mercy repeatedly.
Amidst Yuwu's unbearable screams, he finally succumbed to his urges, delivering the last few deep and heavy blows, giving them both a moment of gratification.
......
Cheng Yi gave Yu Wu a quick wash before getting ready for himself. Before leaving, he went back into the bedroom and promised to give Yu Wu a gift.
He touched Yuwu's forehead and chuckled lazily, "This is a rare opportunity, don't pick something worthless for me."
Yu Wu was dazed for a moment, then opened her eyes, looked at him, blinked, and said earnestly, "I want a hug."
At that moment, a gentle breeze was blowing, and the room was quiet and peaceful. Her slightly curled hair was scattered on the pillow, her eyebrows were slightly raised, and she had a languid and charming look after the event. Her eyes sparkled with a clear light, and a faint smile appeared on her lips.
Cheng Yi was stunned for a moment, wanting to carve this tender morning into his memory. He looked at her for a long time, ruffled her hair, and whispered "okay."
*
Today is Friday, and there was a lot of work at the company. By the time Yuwu finished, it was already 7:40.
The weather can change in an instant. The sky was a heavy gray, and it started to rain outside, accompanied by rumbling thunder.
When she arrived at the empty underground parking lot, she felt a slight damp and cool breeze. She observed the area for a while before walking towards her car.
Yu Wu arrived home smoothly and parked her car in the Xi Ting underground parking lot. Just as she was about to grab her bag and get out of the car, she received a text message from an unknown number on her phone.
I got home a little late today.
Yu Wu gasped for breath, immediately locked the car, and looked around.
My phone kept ringing with new messages, like a death knell.
I tricked your neighborhood security guard into doing a fire drill, which conveniently allowed me to take care of you right there in the parking lot.
Yu Wu's fingertips were trembling. She took out her phone to call the police, but just then, she heard two thumps on the car window.
She looked up and saw Zhou Jin with a smug look on his face, pointing at his phone.
Yu Wu gritted her teeth and answered the phone.
Zhou Jin's voice was calm, his eyes fixed on Yu Wu, "Open the door now, and I might be merciful enough to let you have some fun."
Yu Wu met his cold eyes, gritted her teeth, and said with unwavering determination, "I will rather die than let you succeed."
Zhou Jin gave a lewd smile: "I hope you'll be just as stubborn under me later." After saying that, he turned and left.
He left, and the parking lot fell silent. Yu Wu dared not get out of the car. Trembling, she took out her phone and dialed 110, but was afraid that Zhou Jin would tamper with it and delay the police response. Her finger slid down, from Yu Jianting, to the next, Cheng Yi.
It was exactly eight o'clock, just the time when he was about to start his international meeting.
Don't call him.
With that thought in mind, my fingertips had already unconsciously pressed down.
She thought Cheng Yi would at least turn off his phone, but to her surprise, he answered it immediately, his voice low and magnetic.
"Hello?"
Yu Wu tried her best to control herself, but her voice still trembled uncontrollably when she spoke, carrying a hoarse, tearful tone: "...I."
Almost instantly, Cheng Yi stood up and, under the bewildered gazes of hundreds of people, said in English, "Wait a second."
He strode out of the conference room and asked, "What's wrong?"
"...I..." The words stuck in her throat, and Yu Wu didn't know how to organize her thoughts. Out of the corner of her eye, she saw Zhou Jin holding a hammer and walking towards her step by step. She was startled and unconsciously said, "I'm in my car in the Xiting parking lot. Someone is causing me trouble. He has a hammer and is going to smash my car."
Mu Su chased after him and respectfully reminded Cheng Yi, "President Cheng, EchoOS is getting impatient." He didn't understand why President Cheng would answer the phone at this time. The entire company had gone to so much trouble to secure this opportunity, and it couldn't be taken lightly.
Yu Wu also heard Mu Su's reminder. She was very uneasy and anxious, her heart filled with conflicting emotions.
Cheng Yi glanced casually into the conference room and made up his mind in a second.
"Keep me in check for now." He said, then strode out, instructing Yu Wu, "Lock the car doors, I'll be right there. Don't hang up the phone. If he breaks down the door, get out and run."
At this moment, Zhou Jin had already swung the hammer for the first time. With a loud bang, Yu Wu was startled and trembled, her breathing unsteady as she responded to Cheng Yi.
Watching Cheng Yi's tall figure disappear into the distance, Mu Su was frantic with worry. He paced back and forth anxiously, a rare occurrence for him. Finally, he steeled himself and entered the conference room.
*
Zhou Jin smashed the car window harder and harder with each blow, and cracks began to appear in the glass; it wouldn't last much longer.
Yu Wu sat in the back seat, each chisel-like sound pounding heavily in her ears. Her heart pounded irregularly with fear. She gripped her phone tightly, ready to run away at any moment.
With a final, loud shattering sound, Zhou Jin reached in, unlocked the car door, and opened it.
In that instant, Yu Wu quickly opened the car door on the opposite side from Zhou Jin's, nimbly ran out, and dropped her phone on the ground.
Behind him came Zhou Jin's fierce "fuck!"
Yu Wu's breathing trembled as she crouched down behind a Mercedes-Benz G-Class, cautiously observing the situation.
Only Zhou Jin's voice echoed in the empty parking lot: "You bitch, where are you?"
"Come out, and I'll let you go."
"At worst, we'll just get a hotel room and I won't do it to you here."
The mist dared not breathe, holding its breath, only revealing its eyes to observe his trajectory.
Zhou Jin cried out desperately, "Yu Wu?"
The sound gradually faded away. A few minutes later, just as Yu Wu was about to move to the side, her mouth was suddenly covered. A fierce force suddenly came from behind and pulled her backward, causing her to fall onto the cement floor with a muffled groan and a numb feeling in her back.
Zhou Jin knelt down and quickly unbuckled his belt. As Yu Wu struggled, he forcefully restrained her hands. Taking advantage of this moment, Yu Wu used all her strength to kick him hard in the groin.
Zhou Jin's face contorted in pain, his eyes flashing with a fierce, cold light. He slapped her across the face and cursed, "You slut!"
Yuwu blocked the attack again with her foot, panting, her eyelids red, and glaring at him defiantly.
despair.
Zhou Jin clutched his lower body wounds, gritting his teeth, his eyes filled with ferocity.
Yuwu kept wriggling backward with her legs, trying to get away from him.
Zhou Jin recovered a bit, twisted his neck, his face contorted with rage, grabbed Yu Wu's ankle and dragged her over.
Yu Wu, her hair disheveled, stirred up a cloud of dust that floated on the ground. She met Zhou Jin's dirty, sinister eyes once more and smelled the damp sweat on his body.
This time, however, she didn't have much strength left.
Endless despair overwhelmed her.
