However, just as the girl was about to pass him, the two bumped into each other.
Lu Zhe was knocked back a step, his back hitting a tree trunk. The headphone cord he had just put on was ripped off, but luckily he held onto his phone, preventing it from falling into the nearby lake. The music that had been playing paused automatically without the headphones.
Lu Zhe looked at the girl's face in front of him and paused for two seconds.
Without a doubt, the girl was beautiful, and possessed a vibrant, youthful energy. Her eyes were large, but at that moment they were filled with panic, like a fawn being chased by a lion.
Just as Lu Zhe was about to ask a question, he noticed a figure out of the corner of his eye. Upon closer inspection, he saw a man in black wearing sunglasses and a mask running quickly towards him.
"Stop!" the man shouted.
Lu Zhe glanced at the girl in front of him again.
She stared at Lu Zhe's rear, trembling, but didn't move, seemingly paralyzed with fear... Was there something behind her?
Lu Zhe turned his head slightly and saw a dark gun muzzle.
It turns out that, at some point, a person was squatting in the woods by the roadside, and he was even carrying a gun—but, in today's peaceful world, where did this armed criminal come from?
The gunman behind them was also wearing sunglasses and a mask, making it impossible to see his face, but the outline of his sinister facial muscles could be vaguely seen.
"Young Miss, are you going to keep running?"
The girl asked hesitantly, "What exactly do you want?"
At this moment, another thug ran over and said with a smile, "We just want to invite you two over so we can have a calm talk."
The girl was also taken aback: "Two people?"
The thug pointed at Lu Zhe and said, "Who told this gentleman to be so lucky? Since you're here, come with us."
Lu Zhe: "..."
Is this a cover-up? That's outrageous!
