But she didn't dare to let her guard down, and she pricked up her ears to listen to the movements around her.
While opening the self-service mall, he looked through the items inside to see if there was anything suitable for self-defense.
Before she could find the right props, she heard the sharp whistling sound of a police siren.
Now she felt relieved, the police were here!
Outside, there were the police's harsh rebukes and the bad guys' screams and noises.
The noise lasted for a few minutes before finally dying down.
Then there was a noise outside the door.
Ying Xixi didn't know whether the person who opened the door was a bad guy or a policeman, so she quickly got up from the ground and hid behind the door.
Finally, the door of the room was opened, and the light from outside illuminated the room as the door opened.
"The victims are all here!"
The person who came in shouted, and Ying Xixi knew that it was the police and she was completely relieved.
She followed the police out of the room, and before she could see what was happening outside, she was hugged tightly by a figure who came out of nowhere.
Ying Xixi subconsciously wanted to push the other person away, but a familiar smell came into her nostrils.
This smell...is Mu Yan's.
Then Mu Yan's voice sounded in her ears, confirming her thoughts.
"Xixi, thank goodness you're okay!"
"Mu Yan?"
Ying Xixi pushed him away and looked up at his face, which was a little haggard but still handsome.
"Why are you here? Aren't you in Shanghai?"
"It's a long story, let's get out of here first."
As Mu Yan spoke, he grabbed Ying Xixi's wrist and wanted to take her away, but was stopped by the policeman next to him.
"Mu Yan, please take this beautiful woman to the police station. We need her to give a statement. She is the one who called the police to report what happened tonight. She needs to tell us what happened tonight."
Mu Yan nodded, let Ying Xixi get on the passenger seat of his car, fastened her seat belt himself, stepped on the accelerator and left.
Mu Yan's mood was a little off, and Ying Xixi remained silent to reduce her presence.
She looked out the window and realized that she was already in the suburbs.
It looks quite remote, probably far from the city.
By the way, she has to tell her grandma, she must be worried about her.
Ying Xixi glanced at her phone. Grandma didn’t call her?
"I told grandma that you and I were out shopping."
Mu Yan, who was driving silently, answered Ying Xixi's question as if he knew it.
"Oh, I see. That's good. I was worried that grandma would be worried if she couldn't contact me."
Ying Xixi put her phone away, Mu Yan nodded, and the car fell into silence again.
The silence tonight was different from the silence of the past. The atmosphere in the car tonight made her feel a little depressed and suffocated.
So why doesn't Mu Yan say anything?
Ying Xixi endured it again and again, but finally couldn't help but break the silence.
"Mu Yan, how did you know I was there? That policeman seemed to know you?
Why don't you just say something and drive slower, not so fast."
Ying Xixi held the handrail tightly with one hand.
Mu Yan still didn't say anything, but he stepped on the brakes and stopped the car.
The harsh sound of brakes and the oppressive aura emanating from Mu Yan made her feel uneasy.
"Mu, Mu Yan, if you have something to say, let's talk it over nicely. The police are right behind us. Don't..." Kill me and dump my body.
Ying Xixi didn't have time to say the last few words.
Because she was hugged tightly by Mu Yan who leaned over.
Mu Yan's strength was so great that Ying Xixi felt like she was going to be strangled to death by him.
She buried her face in Mu Yan's neck, and his hot and moist breath hit her ears, making them itchy.
She shrank her neck, her hands hanging in the air, and finally covered Mu Yan's back.
She felt Mu Yan's body stiffen for a moment.
"Mu Yan, what's wrong? You should speak up. I really don't understand what you mean by being so silent.
I almost suspected you were going to kill me and dump my body."
Ying Xixi whispered in Mu Yan's ear.
Mu Yan: “….”
Knowing that he had scared Ying Xixi, Mu Yan stood up and sat up straight.
"I was just worried something might have happened to you, but luckily you're okay.
I know you have a class reunion tonight, and I thought of sending you a message to ask about you, but you haven't replied and you didn't answer my calls.
I felt something was wrong at the time and had a bad feeling.
I called my grandma and she said you hadn't come home yet. It was already past nine o'clock in the evening.
I had just finished my work, so I flew back.
As soon as I landed, I received a call from a police officer friend of mine.
You should know him too. He is the policeman who helped you at the police station last time.
He said you called the police and had the location information and everything. He knew it was you through the number, so he told me the news and wanted to ask me if I knew anything.
I knew you were in danger, so I drove after them to find you.
On the way, I received another call from my grandma, so I told her that I was shopping with me and asked her not to worry about me.
That's how it is, Xixi, we almost went too late.
I'm glad you're okay."
Mu Yan finished speaking slowly and rubbed his brows tiredly.
Ying Xixi also understood.
“So that’s how it is. I never thought my high school class teacher was actually a human trafficker.
She specifically gathered together the obscure and pitiful people in our class and wanted to sell us out.
At that time, I found that she kept urging others to drink, and the students who drank were all dizzy and looked a little strange.
I pretended to be drunk and passed out and called 110.
Luckily, the police are here too, so we can finally rip their lair clean off."
Ying Xixi actually didn't expect that in the original plot, the original owner would be sold to human traffickers by Yang Zhen so long in advance.
And because Yang Zhen in this life was sent to prison by her to operate a sewing machine, it actually exposed Wang Dehua, the bad guy who was nominally a high school class teacher but was actually a human trafficker.
Then she can be considered to have eliminated a scourge for the people.
After all, if Wang Dehua had not taken action this time, she would never have thought that Wang Dehua was a human trafficker.
I am afraid that more innocent students will be sold to all parts of the world by their trusted homeroom teachers and separated from their families.
"Xixi, you're taking too much risk. What if the bad guys find out you called the police?
What if they find out you're pretending to be unconscious and beat you up so you actually pass out?!"
Mu Yan spoke seriously and sighed repeatedly.
"I didn't think too much about it at the time. I thought if the police could sense something was wrong, they might be able to follow us and find us using my phone's location."
Ying Xixi paused after she finished speaking, unbuckled her seat belt, and turned her body towards Mu Yan.
