The man in black in front of her saw her like this and retreated out the door as if he had received some instructions.
"Call him and tell him to give you the money, or I'm coming in."
Jiang Rongxi frantically found her cell phone, but because she was too nervous, she couldn't remember the password to unlock it.
"Don't play tricks, hurry up."
After being scolded like this, the people inside burst into tears.
After trying several times, she finally cracked the password. She called once but no one answered. She looked outside nervously, then called again, but still no one answered.
"If you keep hitting me and I can't get the money, then..."
"I'll fight, I'll fight..."
The third call finally got through, and when she heard Lu Yichen's voice, she finally felt like she saw hope.
"Yichen, where are you, wu..."
Her sobs and forbearance were transmitted to Lu Yichen's phone through the receiver and the camera on the wine cabinet.
"Rong Xi, what's wrong with you? Don't cry."
"Yichen, save me."
"Don't worry, I'll be right up, don't be afraid."
"Okay, woo..."
Lu Yichen did catch up quickly and soon started wrestling with the man.
"Yi Chen!"
The hotel staff came over quickly and held the man down. Only then did Lu Yichen turn around and see the person on the ground.
He suddenly felt regretful for arranging everything, and seeing her like this, he actually felt distressed.
"Rong Xi, don't be afraid. I'm coming."
He held her in his arms, feeling her helplessness and trembling.
"Yichen, Yichen!"
The relaxed person finally fell asleep due to the alcohol. Lu Yichen directly carried her back to the car and let her sit in his arms in a straddle position.
"Rong Xi."
"Um."
The half-asleep man still leaned on Lu Yichen's shoulder with a frown. When he heard someone calling him, he subconsciously replied with a "hmm".
"Rong Xi, do you know that Lu Yichen is the only one who can protect you?"
"Um."
"You can't trust anyone except Lu Yichen. He's the only one who won't hurt you. He's the only one who will protect you. Do you understand?"
"Um."
This is a psychological hint, and it is most useful to tell her this when she is most vulnerable.
And this idea really took root in her mind. In this world, only Lu Yichen would protect herself.
When she fell asleep at night, she was awakened by nightmares again and again, and Lu Yichen next to her reminded her of this again and again when she woke up.
When she woke up the next day, Rong Xi saw Lu Yichen lying next to her. She felt at ease to be able to see him as soon as she woke up.
Fortunately he was there yesterday, otherwise I don’t know what would have happened now.
She traced his features with her eyes, but she didn't know when her hands were on his face.
The person who was pretending to be asleep opened his eyes as if he had just woken up because of this touch.
"Rong Xi, good morning."
Rong Xi was so stunned by the greeting that he stood there, not even having time to pull his hand back.
How could she sleep with Lu Yichen? What's going on?!
She immediately looked around. This was her room, so why was he here?
"Rong Xi, don't worry. I didn't do anything. You were scared last night, and I was afraid you might get into an accident, so I stayed here to watch over you."
Rong Xi finally felt relieved after this explanation, but still felt very embarrassed as he stood up.
but……
Weren’t you wearing a dress yesterday? Why are you wearing a nightgown now?
She looked again at Lu Yichen who was sorting his clothes.
"Oh, I was worried that you wouldn't be able to sleep properly wearing that, so I asked Aunt Chen to change it for you. Sorry, I didn't get your consent."
"It's okay, thank you, Yichen."
Lu Yichen left and returned to his room on the third floor.
He had enough time to get in last night before the door locked automatically.
But the kitten smelled so good that he didn't want to leave. By the time he realized it might be too late to come back, it was already too late.
So he could only sleep in her bed, hug her and kiss her.
When Rong Xi went into the bathroom to wash up, he found that there were many small red spots on his body.
Could it be that the material of the dress is bad and I'm allergic to it? It's not itchy at all?
She didn't care and went downstairs after washing up.
Lu Yichen was still sitting there waiting for her to eat, and he suddenly felt warm in his heart.
After sitting down, Lu Yichen picked up some food for her as usual. Jiang Rongxi thought for a long time before asking.
"Yichen, who was that person yesterday?"
Lu Yichen paused for a moment as he was picking up the dish, then put it into Rong Xi's bowl.
"It was Jin Fei who arranged this. Don't worry, I will make her pay the price she deserves."
Rong Xi nodded, then glanced at Lu Yichen indifferently and said shyly.
"Thank you so much for yesterday. I don't know what would have happened without you."
"I should be the one to say sorry. You followed me and got drunk because you blocked my way. It's because I wasn't there to watch over you that this happened. Rong Xi, will you forgive me?"
"Yi Chen, I don't blame you. I'm very grateful that you saved me."
The two said "Thank you!" in unison, then smiled at each other and started eating.
Only Uncle Zhong on the other side looked more and more worried.
He could see that the gentleman really liked Assistant Jiang, but how could love gained in this way last long?
Lu Yichen went to work, and Rong Xi was ordered by Lu Yichen to rest at home because of what happened yesterday.
Rong Xi, who couldn't go with them, could only stay in the villa alone.
But as soon as she stopped, the images that she wanted to forget but couldn't always appeared in her mind, making her very painful.
