"Stop, don't come over here. If you come over here again, I'll call for help!" Qin Man was forced to retreat step by step towards the lake, holding tightly in her hand the handbag that Jiang Cong gave her.
She really hoped that Jiang Cong could suddenly appear beside her at this moment and rescue her.
When she got off work, she was ten minutes late, and it took her some time to walk. Calculating the time, Jiang Cong's evening self-study class had already ended. If she could delay a little longer, maybe she could wait for him.
"It's no use yelling. It's so cold and late at night. There are hardly any pedestrians on this stretch of road. No one will hear you even if you yell!"
Several people approached Qin Man and reached out to grab her, and Qin Man was easily caught by them.
"Brothers, let's discuss something. If you are short of money, I have some too. I will give you all my money. Can you please let me go?"
Qin Man saw the situation and knew what was going on. She could only try to negotiate with them. She was desperate at the moment and she didn't dare to imagine what would happen next.
"No, that won't work. We have been entrusted by someone to deal with you. You should just be quiet and stop struggling. You can suffer less!"
One of them bluntly said that he was instructed by someone, and the three of them worked together to drag Qin Man into the alley.
"Help...ah..." Qin Man shouted for help in desperation, but the next moment her mouth was covered and she couldn't shout anything.
She was so frightened that tears came to her eyes, and she struggled with all her might, but it was of no avail.
Jiang Cong got off work as soon as the time came. He walked back with Qiaoqiao, feeling uneasy and his heart was beating fast.
Qin Man was dragged into the alley, and several people threw her to the ground with force, stuffed a piece of cloth into her mouth, and prepared to do something indecent to her. Qin Man got up and tried to leave, but was dragged back again.
"Behave yourself, or you'll die here!" one of them threatened her.
Qin Man's knees hit the ground and it hurt a lot, but she couldn't speak or shout. Tears flowed uncontrollably and she sobbed.
They said they were instructed by someone. Qin Man knew in her heart that, apart from Yang Ru, no one else had ever been hostile to her, and no one was so bold as to send someone to rape her.
She swore that if she could live, she would never let her go.
Several men pressed her to the ground and tore off her clothes. Qin Man closed her eyes in despair.
Until several flashlights shone into the alley and several policemen appeared with flashlights.
"Police, who are you and what are you doing there!" one of the policemen shouted.
The three people who were committing the crime were so frightened that they fled in all directions.
There was an abandoned building in the alley, and several people took advantage of the chaos to escape. Qin Man heard that they were the police and was suddenly saved, and she breathed a sigh of relief.
Two policemen went to chase the thugs, and the remaining one came forward to check on Qin Man's condition.
The flashlight was so bright that she couldn't open her eyes.
"Ma'am, what's wrong with you? Are you okay? Are you hurt anywhere?"
The policeman tore the cloth from her mouth and helped her up. Qin Man immediately broke down and burst into tears.
“Wow…”
"Ma'am, it's okay, stop crying!"
Qin Man was crying loudly. There was a sound of hurried footsteps, and the next moment she fell into a familiar embrace.
Jiang Cong hadn't even caught his breath yet, and he hugged Qin Man tightly.
"Manman, it's okay, I'm here!" He patted her back and coaxed her softly.
Just when he was at the intersection, a man suddenly came up to him and told him that his wife was in trouble and asked him to go and see her quickly. He ran over without delay and heard Qin Man crying hysterically here. The voice was full of fear and despair.
His heart ached as if it were being cut by a knife.
"Why did you come just now? Do you know that I almost died just now?" Qin Man felt extremely aggrieved and hit Jiang Cong on the chest with a hammer.
Jiang Cong let her beat him, and Qiaoqiao ran out of breath.
"Teacher Jiang, what happened? Where is my wife?"
Jiang Cong was so anxious just now that he almost forgot about Qiaoqiao, and Qiaoqiao almost didn't catch up.
After a while, the two police officers who went to chase the man came back, but they didn't catch the man; he got away.
"We didn't catch her, but she seems to be very familiar with this place. Is she okay?" the police officer asked about Qin Man's condition.
"It's okay, I was just a little scared!"
"Ma'am, we didn't catch him. Are you feeling unwell? Do you want to go to the hospital?"
Qin Man shook her head when she heard this, and her mood calmed down.
"I'm fine. You must find the people. They planned it. They said it themselves that someone ordered them to do it. You must not let the mastermind get away with it!"
Qin Man knew that this matter was related to Yang Ru. In this city, the only person who had a grudge against her was her, and she was the only one who had this ability.
"Ma'am, don't worry, we will do our best to find the man and give you an explanation, but we would like to ask you to go back to the police station with us and make a statement!"
