"ah!"
In an instant, his eyebrow was severed and blood flowed out, the bright red blood trickling through the gaps between his fingers as he covered his forehead.
Aping paused for a moment, then subconsciously looked at the person who had thrown the stone at Duanmei.
That was none other than Li Junsheng.
How did he end up here?
In an instant, A-Ping's heart leaped into her throat. Feeling guilty, she dared not meet Li Junsheng's gaze, afraid that he would discover her purpose.
Li Junsheng, with a stern face, strode towards A Ping. A Ping opened her mouth, wanting to say something to Li Junsheng, but Li Junsheng simply walked past her.
Li Junsheng grabbed Duanmei's hair and then punched him in the right cheek.
Duanmei was knocked to the ground, and Li Junsheng immediately began to punch and kick the guy.
Duanmei saw that Li Junsheng's face was icy cold, and every punch he received felt like it was meant to kill him right there.
This caused Duanmei to groan in pain, his ribs throbbing with pain, perhaps from Li Junsheng breaking his ribs!
"Madman, madman, murderer!"
At this moment, Duanmei had no other thought but to escape from Li Junsheng's clutches.
Damn it, is this guy really fifty? When he fights, he's like a man in his thirties!
Even Li Junsheng didn't realize how ruthless he was at that moment!
It was Duanmei's scream that brought Aping back to her senses. After a moment's hesitation, Aping went over and briefly stopped Li Junsheng.
"That's enough, Brother Li! If you keep hitting him, someone will really die!"
It wasn't that A-Ping didn't want to die with her eyebrow cut off, but Li Junsheng was such a good person, it wasn't good to let him get involved in someone's death.
If Broken Eyebrows dies at Brother Li's hands, Cao Hu will be overjoyed. It would actually help him achieve his goal of sending Li Junsheng to prison!
Li Junsheng took a breath and glanced coldly at the man in front of him. He was glad that he had followed along out of concern.
Otherwise, Ah Ping would have fallen victim to this man's cruelty!
Duanmei, having caught his breath, glared fiercely at Li Junsheng, then covered his forehead and limped away.
Ah Ping ignored him, secretly relieved. After much persuasion, Li Junsheng hadn't killed Duanmei, so she had managed to save him!
He's so kind. Even though he doesn't have any romantic feelings for me, he still stepped up to help me when I was in danger.
Li Junsheng, unaware of A Ping's thoughts, turned to her with feigned ignorance and asked with concern, "Are you alright? Did he hurt you? Why did you come to this deserted place? It's so unsafe!"
"I……"
Ah Ping hesitated, her heart in turmoil. She truly didn't want to harm people with Cao Hu; instead, she wanted to confess everything to Li Junsheng and turn to the light.
But knowing that her mother was still in Cao Hu's hands, A Ping had no choice but to harden her heart and continue to deceive Li Junsheng!
"I was originally going home when this guy asked if I needed a ride. He said it wouldn't cost much, and since I didn't want to walk that far, I got in his car. And then he brought me here, trying to take advantage of me. Luckily you arrived in time. How did you end up here?"
Aping wanted to test Li Junsheng, because she wasn't sure when he had arrived. Perhaps he had already seen her talking to Duanmei over there!
Then her own lie would fall apart on its own.
Li Junsheng explained, "I noticed you seemed distracted, so I came looking for you. There were so many cars on the way; what if something happened to you?"
A-Ping nodded, looking at Li Junsheng as if he hadn't seen her talking to Duanmei.
It's good that you didn't see it!
Otherwise, I wouldn't be able to stay at Li Junsheng's house any longer.
"Let's go, I'll take you back. Be careful of anyone who tries to talk to you on the way..."
Li Junsheng glanced at A Ping's face, then hesitated, as if he wanted to say something but couldn't.
Sometimes, it's not good for a woman to be too beautiful; she's not safe anywhere she goes!
Ah Ping obediently followed Li Junsheng, the two keeping a two-step distance, and finally took a car to get home.
After arriving home, Li Junsheng poured A Ping a glass of water to calm her down. He didn't plan to spread the news about what happened in the park, otherwise people would gossip about A Ping!
"Um...did I delay your delivery? If you're busy, you should go back first."
Holding the porcelain cup in her hand, A-Ping felt very guilty towards Li Junsheng. She glanced at him quickly before lowering her eyes again.
Otherwise, Li Junsheng might have figured something out.
"No rush. I trust Qin Yong to handle things. I don't have to worry about him much. I have something to give you. Wait for me a moment."
Li Junsheng went back to his bedroom, seemingly to retrieve something.
This piqued A-Ping's interest. She wondered what Li Junsheng was going to give her, and he was being so mysterious!
Soon Li Junsheng came out of the bedroom, and without anything else, he handed A Ping a sum of money.
A-Ping was taken aback. "Why are you giving me money?"
"It's nothing. I noticed you seemed preoccupied, so I gave you this month's salary in advance. With this money, maybe it can ease your worries and help you buy some things you want. That should make you feel better, right?"
After all, money is a good thing; it can solve all worries. In Li Junsheng's opinion, A Ping has money and the ability to resolve her own troubles, so everything will be fine.
Unexpectedly, when Ah Ping looked at the wages Li Junsheng had prepared, she actually smiled slightly.
"In your opinion, if a woman is unhappy, you can just give her money?"
Li Junsheng shrugged. "I don't know about other women, but my money-grubbing ex-wife was like that."
A-Ping nodded and reached out to take the money Li Junsheng handed over!
Judging from this, Li Junsheng hasn't dated many women!
No wonder he's like a block of wood, completely clueless.
"Was your ex-wife your first love?"
Aping couldn't help but ask more questions, but Li Junsheng just hummed in response, seemingly unwilling to mention Ma Yulian.
Back then, everyone was quite conservative, and marriages were arranged by parents and matchmakers. Where would Li Junsheng find time to date?
A-Ping smiled, didn't ask any more questions, and went out shopping with the money.
Li Junsheng had no idea what she would buy with the money!
After Qin Yong delivered the waste materials to the agricultural machinery factory and everything was fine at the warehouse, Li Junsheng returned to the restaurant.
After the restaurant across the street closed, the customers all returned, which resulted in Li Junsheng's restaurant being fully booked almost all day.
There are definitely not enough staff in the store, so he has to go and help!
In the afternoon, A-Ping bought some things and had to return to the restaurant.
"Xiaoyu, Chunya, Xiaocui, come and see what I bought for you!"
Aping took out three headbands of the same style but different colors and put them on Li Xiaoyu, Li Chunya, and Ji Xiaocui respectively.
Ji Xiaocui was a little flattered. "Sister Ping, why did you buy all these things for us?"
"Thank you so much! I'm so grateful for your care during this time!"
