With a bang, Shen Muzhi was hit and slammed into the door of the cubicle.
Xu Tingchuan quickly pulled Ni Sitian into his arms and glared fiercely at Shen Muzhi: "What are you doing!"
Shen Muzhi wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth and clenched his fist tightly.
Seeing that the battle was about to break out, Ah Chao hurriedly said to Shen Muzhi, "Sir, we should send someone to find Madam as soon as possible, or we'll be in trouble if we go too far away."
Shen Muzhi's tense rage eased slightly. He glared fiercely at Ni Sitian, then turned and strode out.
Ni Sitian caught a whimper and coughed a few times, then grabbed Xu Tingchuan's clothes tightly in fright.
Xu Tingchuan patted her to help her catch her breath. Seeing that she had calmed down a bit, he asked, "What exactly happened? How did you make Shen Muzhi go crazy?"
Ni Sitian let out a sob and huddled in Xu Tingchuan's arms, crying.
Seeing that she wouldn't calm down anytime soon, and since it was the women's restroom and inconvenient, Xu Tingchuan picked her up and carried her out.
After Ni Sitian righteously questioned Shen Mu, she was choked and was terrified. At that moment, she had only one thought in her mind: Shen Mu would really kill her.
Xu Tingchuan put her in the passenger seat, got into the driver's seat himself, and took out a tissue to wipe her tears.
Ni Sitian's crying wasn't just because she was scared, but also because Zhi Lan was really gone. She felt sad and it seemed like crying was the only way to vent her emotions.
This parting, the day of reunion is unknown.
Xu Tingchuan vaguely guessed what might have happened, so he hugged Ni Sitian and comforted her.
Ni Sitian cried until her head was throbbing, and it took her a while to stop the tears.
"It's alright, it's all over now. I won't let Shen Muzhi do anything to you." Xu Tingchuan gently stroked the tear tracks on her face and said softly.
"Aren't you going to ask me what trouble I've gotten myself into?" Ni Sitian sniffed, looking at Xu Tingchuan who was always indulging her.
"I'll cover for you no matter what trouble you get into, don't worry, everything will be fine." Xu Tingchuan cupped Ni Sitian's face and kissed her forehead.
Ni Sitian hugged Xu Tingchuan, snuggled against him, and choked out, "Zhi Lan is gone, she's left Shen Muzhi."
Although Xu Tingchuan had already guessed based on what had just happened, he still gasped when he heard it.
“I helped Zhi Lan escape.” Ni Sitian stepped out of Xu Tingchuan’s arms and said in a hoarse voice, “Zhi Lan was living in despair. She has changed completely. She is not happy. I didn’t even know that so many things had happened to her.”
"You knew all along?" Xu Tingchuan thought Xiang Zhilan would keep these things from the naive Ni Sitian for the rest of her life.
“Yes, you all bullied her.” Ni Sitian’s eyes welled up with tears again as she looked accusingly at Xu Tingchuan.
"I'm sorry." Xu Tingchuan pressed his head against Ni Sitian's and whispered repeatedly, "I'm sorry."
“The person who should apologize to Zhi Lan the most is Shen Muzhi!” Ni Sitian sniffed and said, “He made Zhi Lan prefer to leave her hometown rather than stay by his side.”
"Twilight..."
"You're not allowed to speak up for him! What did you tell me before? That he wouldn't hurt Zhi Lan, but look at me now!" Ni Sitian couldn't help but punch Xu Tingchuan in complaint.
Xu Tingchuan stopped talking; even he knew that Shen Muzhi had indeed wronged Xiang Zhilan a great deal.
To say that he risked his life to save Xiang Zhilan is actually understandable. If it weren't for his involvement with Shen Muzhi, Li Rui and Xiang Zhilan had no grudges against each other and didn't even know each other. Why would he kidnap Xiang Zhilan?
Ultimately, it was Shen Muzhi who caused her to be kidnapped, so it was only right to save her.
