A gunshot rang out, accompanied by the sound of shattering glass.
"Don't move!"
A man's strong voice rang in my ears, followed by a loud bang as the factory door, which had just been closed, was kicked open from the outside.
"You bitch, you..."
Teacher Wang realized he had been tricked. His face contorted with rage as he reached out to grab Gu Baiwei. Before his hand could even touch her, he heard a whooshing sound and a bullet pierced his hand, embedding itself deeply in the wall beside him with a dull thud.
Seeing that things were not going well, the other three men turned around and ran away.
He hadn't run more than a few steps when his vision blurred and he was punched hard and knocked to the ground.
A dozen well-trained bodyguards in black surrounded the group.
Teacher Wang, clutching her injured hand, suddenly met Shen Yanqing's cold and gloomy eyes, and her body trembled involuntarily.
"Damn it, you bitch, you lied to me!"
He screamed and tried to pounce on him, but the black-clad bodyguard next to him kicked him away, sending him crashing to the ground. He rolled his eyes and passed out.
Shen Yanqing looked down at the three men huddled on the ground, a gentle smile on his lips, but that smile sent chills down the spines of the three men.
"Boss Shen...we didn't know this young lady was one of yours. It's...it's that bastard who said he wanted...want..."
The scarred man spoke hesitantly.
Shen Yanqing slowly sat down on the chair that the bodyguard had brought over, raised his eyelids slightly, and said to Gu Baiwei in a calm tone, "Someone, take Miss Gu back."
Gu Baiwei nodded, turned and walked out. She didn't know why, but she felt that Shen Yanqing's attitude towards her seemed to have changed a lot.
As soon as she stepped out the door, her bodyguards immediately closed the two dilapidated iron doors behind her.
The iron gate made a dull thud behind her. Gu Baiwei glanced back, then stepped out of the factory.
Watching the petite figure leave, Shen Yanqing rested her elbows on her thighs and looked at the scarred man on the ground with a smile: "What do you want?"
The scarred man felt as if he were being stared at by a wild beast, as if the temperature around him had dropped significantly. He stammered, "It's...it's just..."
Gu Baiwei had no idea what Shen Yanqing was going to do next. She returned home under the escort of Shen Yanqing's bodyguards.
After arriving home and confirming that Ye Chuyue and the others were alright, she sat on the sofa, hesitating for a long time, before sending a message to Shen Yanqing: "Mr. Shen, thank you for today."
She eventually sought help from Shen Yanqing.
Shen Yanqing was leaning back in the car seat in a relaxed posture. He casually glanced at his phone, then turned off the screen and pinched his brow with his long, slender fingers.
At that moment, Big Head walked over with a camera in hand, looking disgusted. He raised his hand and knocked on the car window: "Boss, it's all finished recording. Do you want to take a look...?"
After saying that, he frowned and looked like he'd seen a ghost: "Damn, that's disgusting. Those three thugs were like they'd taken drugs... Damn, this is the first time I've ever seen men with men..."
Shen Yanqing waved his hand: "Keep it safe."
Big Head nodded, then, as if he had just thought of something, said excitedly, "Boss, you helped Miss Gu so much! Shouldn't she repay you properly? She might even offer herself to you."
Shen Yanqing frowned: "You're very free?"
Big Head's expression froze instantly. Why did it seem like his boss was in a bad mood today? Did he have a fight with Miss Gu? But that didn't make sense. He had just received a call from Miss Gu and looked worried.
In the back seat, Shen Yanqing tapped his fingers lightly on his knees, his face expressionless, but Da Tou, his confidant, could tell at a glance that he was in a bad mood.
Big Head swallowed hard, not daring to speak, placed the camera on the passenger seat, and drove away.
...
Gu Baiwei waited for a long time but did not receive a reply from Shen Yanqing. She felt a little strange, but quickly felt relieved. If it weren't for her future daughter-in-law, she and Shen Yanqing shouldn't have had much interaction in the first place.
The door was gently pushed open from the outside at that moment. Ye Sinian stood by the door, staring at her with his dark eyes for a while before speaking: "Are you... alright?"
He was on a business trip out of town when he heard that she and Ye Chuyue had an accident, so he rushed back without stopping, without even drinking a sip of water along the way.
"Niannian, why are you back so soon? Are you done with work?"
Gu Baiwei sent him a message to let him know she was safe when she escaped, and told him not to worry, but she didn't expect him to come back so soon.
Ye Sinian walked over and sat down next to her, his voice slightly hoarse: "Mm."
Gu Baiwei noticed his slightly chapped lips, took a water glass from the table and handed it to him: "No matter how busy you are, remember to drink water."
Ye Sinian paused for a moment, then reached out and took it: "Thank you."
Gu Baiwei couldn't resist ruffling his hair: "You brat, I'm your mother, what are you thanking me for?"
The sudden intimate gesture made Ye Sinian freeze for a moment. He drank the water in his glass in one gulp and stood up as if fleeing in panic: "I have something to do. You should get some rest."
After saying that, he strode out the door.
The moment the door closed, a crack appeared on Ye Sinian's usually cold face. Upon receiving the news, he felt an unprecedented panic. He was afraid, afraid of losing his loved ones again.
He took a deep breath, only to be met with Ye Chuyue's expression as if she were looking at him like he was crazy: "Ye Sinian, what are you doing standing at my door for no reason? You scared me."
Ye Sinian looked her up and down for a moment. Seeing that she was still lively and energetic, he took out a card from his pocket and put it in her hand: "Here, go out with your aunt when you have nothing to do. You can spend the money in here as you like."
Ye Chuyue looked down at the black card in her hand, her eyes immediately lit up, and then she looked at him warily: "Speak, what do you want me to do this time?"
Usually, when her brother is this generous, he must have ulterior motives.
I remember the last time he suddenly increased her allowance, it was because he made her promise not to associate with the petty thugs she knew in society. I wonder what it will be this time.
Seeing her looking at him warily, Ye Sinian sighed, "Consider it a reward for this progress."
Ye Chuyue understood immediately; she knew that he wouldn't be so kind to her for no reason.
She immediately stuffed the card into her pocket: "Since you gave it to me, it's mine. Don't even think about getting it back with some excuse later."
After saying that, he happily took the card and knocked on Gu Baiwei's door: "Auntie, open the door, I'll take you out to have some fun."
Ye Sinian's gaze fell on her bright smiling face, he shook his head helplessly, and walked downstairs.
The door opened from the inside, and Ye Chuyue leaned against the door, smugly waving the black card in her hand at Gu Baiwei: "Come on, my brother is bleeding money today, let's go shopping, it's on me."
Seeing her bright smile, completely devoid of the timidity and fear she had just experienced during her kidnapping, Gu Baiwei breathed a sigh of relief and said with a smile, "Alright, then I won't be polite."
The two walked downstairs hand in hand. When they were almost at the door, Ye Chuyue suddenly reached into her pocket and pulled out something that looked like a small flashlight, handing it to her: "If we run into bad guys again, we'll use this."
