Chapter 83: With me here, no one will bully you
When Xu Yao received the fake message, it was evening. The afterglow of the setting sun shone through the window and onto her small business workbench, making the place look particularly peaceful.
The message said that there was a batch of goods that she needed to handle personally, and the location was an abandoned warehouse outside the village.
She didn't think much of it, after all, some of her goods were indeed stored there.
She hurriedly put on her coat, picked up a flashlight, and went out alone.
The night deepened and the moonlight was as bright as water, but on the country road, it was still pitch black all around.
Xu Yao walked on the empty road. From time to time, she could hear dogs barking in the distance, and occasionally the chirping of insects, which made her feel a little lonely.
She quickened her pace and soon arrived at the abandoned warehouse.
The door was half open, letting in a faint light.
Xu Yao took a deep breath, pushed the door and walked in.
The interior of the warehouse was dark and damp, and the air was filled with a musty smell that made people frown.
Xu Yao turned on the flashlight and the beam swept around. There were some tattered wooden boards and wires scattered on the ground.
She was about to go forward to check, when suddenly, a dark shadow jumped out from the corner and pounced on her.
Xu Yao was startled and stepped back instinctively, but the other party's movements were too fast and she was pushed to the ground.
"Xu Yao, you can't escape this time!" Sun Zhiqiang's voice came from the darkness, full of resentment and pride.
She tried to struggle, but was held down by Sun Zhiqiang.
Lin Wan, who was standing by, walked over with a sneer, holding a thick rope in her hand.
"Aren't you quite capable? Let's see how you escape this time!" Lin Wan said coldly, and began to skillfully tie the ropes around Xu Yao's hands and feet.
Xu Yao's heart sank, but she did not give up. Instead, she became calmer.
She secretly looked around, looking for a chance to escape.
"Your plans can only fool a fool like me." Xu Yao said softly. Although her tone was calm, the anger in her heart was burning.
She knew that these people's goal was not only to ruin her reputation, but also to completely destroy everything she had.
"Xu Yao, do you really think you can beat us?" Sun Zhiqiang's voice was cold. He squatted down and stared into Xu Yao's eyes with a twisted light flashing in his eyes. "This time, I will make sure you can't turn over!"
Just then, hurried footsteps were heard outside the door, and a beam of flashlight was flickering.
Sun Zhiqiang and Lin Wan were stunned and quickly exchanged glances.
Xu Yao was delighted. Could it be that someone came to save her?
"What are you doing here?!" A low and angry voice rang out, and Xue Han rushed in with the director of the street office and the market stall owners.
The moment he saw Xu Yao tied to the ground, his heart was burning with anger, and he seemed to have turned into a volcano about to erupt.
"Brother, you are finally here!" When Xu Yao saw Xue Han, she struggled to stand up. Although her hands and feet were tied, the fear in her heart had mostly disappeared.
"How dare you guys attack Yaoyao!" Xue Han's eyes were like knives, staring coldly at Sun Zhiqiang and Lin Wan, "Your good times are over now!"
The smugness on Sun Zhiqiang and Lin Wan's faces disappeared in an instant, replaced by panic and fear.
They had their backs against the wall, with nowhere to escape.
Lin Wan held Sun Zhiqiang's arm tightly, as if seeking the final support.
"Xue Han, don't worry about it! This is our personal grudge and has nothing to do with others." Sun Zhiqiang tried to argue, but his voice was obviously trembling.
"Personal grudge?" Xue Han sneered, "Your personal grudge has already exceeded the bottom line of morality!"
The director of the subdistrict office stepped forward and said sternly: "Sun Zhiqiang, Lin Wan, your actions have violated the law. We will report your crimes and you will not be able to escape!"
The stall owner at the market also spoke up: "That's right, this kind of bullying behavior is something that people in our village cannot tolerate. If you do it again, we will unite to deal with you!"
Sun Zhiqiang and Lin Wan looked pale, they knew they had no way out.
Xu Yao stood up with the help of Xue Han, her eyes firm and cold.
"I have already guessed your plans." Xu Yao said coldly, "But you will never know that I am the final winner."
Xue Han held Xu Yao's hand tightly, his eyes full of tenderness and determination: "Yaoyao, from now on, as long as I am here, no one will bully you anymore."
Lin Wan and Sun Zhiqiang looked at each other, and the fear in their hearts reached its peak.
They knew they had already lost miserably and there was no chance of recovery.
"This time, I will make you lose everything." Xu Yao's voice was low and powerful.
At this moment, Xu Yao's fingers moved slightly, as if indicating something.
Xue Han understood and nodded slightly.
At this moment Xu Yao took out an inconspicuous button from her pocket. It looked ordinary, but it held a mystery.
This is not an ordinary button, it is a miniature recorder that Xue Han specially modified for her!
This thing is Xue Han’s unique secret skill, and ordinary people can’t see it at all.
"I don't have any other hobbies, I just like playing in the 'recording studio'." Xu Yao shook the button in her hand, and a sneer appeared on the corner of her mouth, "Sun Zhiqiang, Lin Wan, you didn't expect it? Your 'masterpieces' have been recorded!"
She pressed the play button, and the voices of Sun Zhiqiang and Lin Wan's conspiracy suddenly rang out in the warehouse. The vicious plan and unbearable words were exposed to everyone word by word.
The director of the subdistrict office frowned upon hearing this, the stall owner at the market was so angry that he blew his beard and glared, and even Xue Han, who was usually calm, had a flash of anger in his eyes.
"You bastard Sun Zhiqiang, I treated you as a brother, but you actually did such a thing!" The stall owner at the market roared, wishing he could go up and punch Sun Zhiqiang twice.
"Lin Wan, you are an educated person, how can you be so vicious!" The director of the subdistrict office pointed at Lin Wan with great anguish, "You are going to destroy Xu Yao!"
Sun Zhiqiang and Lin Wan's faces looked uglier than if they had eaten a fly. They were like two rats crossing the street, wishing they could find a crack in the ground to crawl into.
They never expected that Xu Yao had such a trick up her sleeve. Now, they were completely finished!
"Yaoyao, I..." Sun Zhiqiang wanted to argue, but was frightened by Xue Han's fierce look and shut his mouth.
Xue Han walked up to Xu Yao and gently held her in his arms. His gentle voice echoed in the warehouse: "Yaoyao, I love you. I will never let you suffer any grievances in this life."
Xu Yao's eyes were moist. She hugged Xue Han tightly, feeling his warmth and strength.
At this moment, she felt that all the grievances were worth it because she had the most precious love.
Sun Zhiqiang and Lin Wan left in disgrace amid the accusations of the crowd.
They walked very fast, as if something terrible was chasing them.
Their backs looked particularly lonely and embarrassed.
Only Xu Yao and Xue Han, as well as the director of the street office and the market stall owners were left in the warehouse.
They looked at the two people hugging each other tightly, and a relieved smile appeared on their faces.
"Xue Han, you have to treat Xu Yao well and don't let her down." The stall owner at the market said earnestly.
"Don't worry, uncle, I will use my life to protect her." Xue Han said firmly,
The director of the subdistrict office also patted Xue Han on the shoulder and said, "Young man, live a good life. If you have any difficulties in the future, just come to me."
Xu Yao and Xue Han thanked them gratefully, then left the warehouse hand in hand.
The night is still dark, but their hearts are full of hope and light.
However, shortly after they left, a mysterious figure appeared at the door of the warehouse.
He looked at the direction the two people left, with a strange smile on his face... "The good show has just begun..." He murmured in a low voice, then disappeared into the night.
