Lin Chuxia had told Gu Yuheng when she came home late last time that Jincheng was very safe, and she had hardly ever seen any cases of theft or robbery. At the time, in order to convince Gu Yuheng, she had given several examples to prove how good and strict Jincheng's security management was.
As it turned out, she was proven wrong very quickly—she stumbled upon a crime scene where someone was being bullied.
In the narrow alley, several young men were surrounding a boy and pushing him to the ground.
"Go ahead and run! Weren't you running pretty fast just now? Keep going!"
"We've been waiting for you all morning, and you sneaked off here to look for girls! You're quite the daredevil!"
"Hand over what we guys want right now, or you'll be sorry!"
The boy lowered his head and said in a muffled voice, "I have no money left. I already gave you all of it."
"You say you have no money? Who would believe that! Doesn't your family own a big company? If you don't have money, why don't you just ask your parents for it?"
"I think you're just asking for a beating. You won't hand it over until I take action, is that it?"
"Honey Badger, why are you talking so much nonsense? Just beat him up and teach him a lesson!"
...
The boy covered his head, curled up to avoid vital organs, and did not resist, just letting the group of young thugs punch and kick him.
He didn't utter a single groan from beginning to end.
If it weren't for the muffled thuds of fists hitting her, Lin Chuxia would have thought these people were just playing around.
"What are you doing? If you don't leave, I'm calling the police!" Lin Chuxia was stunned for a moment before she realized she needed to save people.
The boys were also taken aback when they saw her, seemingly not expecting anyone to appear at this moment.
"Hey chick, you're pretty hot! What, you want to save this kid? Sure, if you hang out with us for a bit, we'll let him go, how about it?"
As the leader of the thugs was speaking, he was about to lift his foot and walk towards Lin Chuxia when he found that his leg was being grabbed.
The boy on the ground clung tightly to his leg, saying, "This is our business, it has nothing to do with her! Make her leave."
"Ha! You can't even save yourself, and you're still thinking about being a hero and rescuing a damsel in distress? Look at yourself now! Do you even deserve to be a hero?"
"I look more like a bear, haha..."
Despite being mocked, the boy still clung tightly to the honey badger's leg, stubbornly refusing to let go.
"Young Madam, they spoke rudely to you. Should I teach them a lesson?" Gu Jiu appeared in front of Lin Chuxia at some point and said in a low voice.
Gu Jiu's skills are quite good. Back at Jinxiu Manor, he was forced to fight Lin Xiaoran every now and then, but no matter what moves Lin Xiaoran used, he couldn't hurt him at all. At that time, Lin Chuxia knew that his skills must be very good.
Lin Chuxia knew that she was not very strong in combat. If she were alone, she would probably call the police first.
But it was precisely because she knew that Gu Jiu was following her not far behind that she spoke up to stop him.
"You handle it as you see fit, just don't let anyone die." After saying that, Lin Chuxia took a step back, making room for Gu Jiuteng.
When the group of thugs saw a baby-faced person suddenly appear and shamelessly say that he wanted to teach them a lesson, they immediately burst out laughing.
"Where did this pretty boy come from? What? Trying to be a hero and save the damsel in distress? You should check if your dad will give you... Ouch!"
