Seeing this, Lin Yi said, "Drive."
The vehicle then sped away, leaving behind trails of dust kicked up by its wheels.
Jian Jiaojiao felt utterly hopeless.
If she were left here alone, she might have a chance to escape, but now with two burly bodyguards watching over her, there's no way she could escape.
Then the bodyguard took out a bottle from somewhere, tore the rag out of Jian Jiaojiao's mouth, and forced the contents of the bottle down her throat.
Jian Jiaojiao kept her mouth shut, refusing to eat it. She knew that it was definitely what Lin Yi had said about "adding some ingredients," and it was definitely not good stuff.
But her little tricks were unlikely to escape the bodyguard's keen eyes. Seeing that she refused to speak, the bodyguard forcefully pinched her chin, forcing her to swallow.
Then, as if discarding broken objects, they threw the person into the bridge arch, and then turned around and walked to a place that was relatively far away, but still within sight, to wait.
The homeless people who were sleeping in the bridge hole got up and came over when they heard the noise.
Seeing Jian Jiaojiao, who was an absolute stunner to them, a hint of something unspeakable appeared in their eyes.
Just as Jian Jiaojiao was about to get up and escape, her body suddenly went limp, and she felt an indescribable sensation within her.
Having experience in this area before, Jian Jiaojiao immediately understood what was going on.
Looking up, she saw the homeless men surrounding her, emanating a pungent, nauseating stench. A flash of disgust crossed Jian Jiaojiao's eyes, followed by a fierce shout to shoo them away, "Get out of my way!"
Hearing the sound, the homeless man paid no attention to it.
As homeless people, they struggle to even feed themselves, let alone satisfy their physical needs. Now that a woman has finally appeared, how could they possibly let her go?
A homeless man stared at Jian Jiaojiao's fair skin, swallowed hard, and said, "This is our territory. Why are you telling us to get lost, beautiful lady?"
The younger homeless man said, "Yeah, beautiful lady, this is our territory. You delivered yourself here, so you can't blame us."
The look in the homeless man's eyes made Jian Jiaojiao feel nauseous.
Jian Jiaojiao's expression changed drastically. "Get out of my way! If you dare touch me, I'll make sure you can't live in the capital!"
"Oh, she's a hot girl, just my type." The homeless man rubbed his hands together and moved closer to Jian Jiaojiao.
Jian Jiaojiao's eyes were filled with rage. If she weren't unable to stand up at the moment, she would have made sure that these people died without a burial place!
"Get out of here!" Jian Jiaojiao said angrily.
The homeless man remained unmoved, walked straight up to the person, picked them up, and headed towards the bed inside the bridge arch.
Jian Jiaojiao was furious. "Get out of my way! Put me down right now!"
However, what she didn't realize was that her voice was completely ineffective to the homeless people.
Seeing this, the other homeless people were not to be outdone.
"Brother, don't forget about us."
The homeless man holding Jian Jiaojiao grinned and said, "Don't worry."
...
The bodyguards, who were some distance away, witnessed the embarrassing scene and then turned and left.
When Jian Jiaojiao woke up again, it was already dark, and the homeless man next to her was fast asleep.
Jian Jiaojiao moved away from the homeless man with disgust and humiliation. As she moved, the pain all over her body told her what she had been through.
Jian Jiaojiao burst into tears of anger. If she hadn't been worried that killing him would attract other homeless people and ultimately harm her, she would have definitely torn the homeless man who was begging for money to pieces.
She then realized she had to find a way to leave, or she would definitely die.
Seeing that there was no more movement outside, and looking at her clothes that were barely covering her body, she had no choice but to endure the nausea and put on the women's clothes that the homeless man had picked up from somewhere. Then she carefully got up and tiptoed onto the highway.
She stood by the roadside waving for a long time before a kind person took her to the hospital.
...
On the other side...
After Qiao Yaxiang and Zhao's father finished their meal, they had a few drinks and Zhao's father couldn't resist anymore. So the two of them decided to go to a five-star hotel.
Qiao Yaxiang helped Zhao's father into the room, and then said softly, "I'm going to take a shower first."
Under the influence of alcohol, Zhao's father's eyes were glazed over, and he immediately pulled Qiao Yaxiang over.
An hour later, Qiao Yaxiang leaned against Zhao's father's chest and said, "Brother Zhao, from now on I will be your woman."
Upon hearing this, Zhao's father remained silent for a moment before saying, "Yaxiang, I'm sorry. It's my fault; I acted recklessly while drunk."
Upon hearing this, Qiao Yaxiang suddenly stood up and looked at Zhao's father, saying, "Brother Zhao, what do you mean? What kind of person do you take me for!"
By this time, Zhao's father had sobered up considerably. Upon hearing Qiao Yaxiang's words, he immediately said, "I'm sorry, Yaxiang. You know that my current position doesn't allow me to make any decisions that are detrimental to the company, including my private life. So I can't give you any official title. If you're still willing to follow me, I promise I won't treat you unfairly."
At the same time, he felt very guilty thinking of his wife who had been with him all along.
But after all these years, he seemed to have grown tired of it, especially after meeting Ya Xiang. He suddenly felt like he had been reborn, as if he had returned to his youthful days.
When he's with his wife, it's all about responsibility and obligation, no longer about love.
However, he couldn't bring himself to divorce his wife, nor could he marry Qiao Yaxiang, for both personal and professional reasons.
After all, her son was about to marry her daughter.
If his son marries her daughter and then he marries Qiao Yaxiang, who knows how he will be criticized in the capital!
Similarly, he was also reluctant to separate from Qiao Yaxiang, and he didn't want to lose either of them.
Upon hearing this, Qiao Yaxiang cursed Zhao's father in her heart.
What kind of person is this, saying such things now that they've got what they want? It's like they've changed their mind about who they are now.
But what could she do?
Now that Jian Mingpeng is no longer her support, she must find someone else she can rely on.
A hint of hurt flashed across Qiao Yaxiang's face, but she said understandingly, "I understand. As long as Brother Zhao continues to treat me well, I won't hold it against him."
Upon hearing this, Zhao's father said with great relief, "Yaxiang, I'm sorry you had to go through all this."
Qiao Yaxiang felt that Zhao's father was being pretentious. If he really felt wronged, he could divorce his wife and marry her instead.
Why bother saying thank you? It's a useless phrase.
She wasn't in a hurry for a formal title; she knew she would get it someday.
Since she managed to drive Dongfang Tinglan away from Jian Mingpeng back then, she can certainly do it now.
It's just a matter of time, and she can wait!
...
Suddenly, the phone rang.
Qiao Yaxiang picked up the phone and answered it; a stranger's voice immediately came through.
