Li Nanxing's face darkened instantly, and she reached out to pull Ye Chuyue: "Sister Yue, aren't we going to eat?"
Ye Chuyue hurriedly waved to Li Tingting behind her: "See you later."
Li Tingting instantly looked like she'd just fallen flat on her face. Ahhh, she looked so cute when she was angry just now.
The moment Li Nanxing's chilling gaze swept over her, she immediately looked away. Holy crap, how scary! How come she hadn't noticed how terrifying Li's gaze was before? Ye was much cuter.
Where should we eat?
Ye Chuyue's voice drew Li Nanxing's attention back, and Li Nanxing immediately said with a grin, "I'll listen to Sister Yue. You can go wherever you like. It's on me."
Ye Chuyue suddenly slapped her forehead: "Right, Lin Shuo helped me so much this time, why don't we ask him to come along?"
As soon as she looked up, she met Li Nanxing's deep gaze: "Sister Yue, we finally get to have a meal together, why invite an outsider?"
"Okay, okay, we'll talk about it next time. It's your treat, so you decide."
Ye Chuyue reached out and patted him on the shoulder, then immediately frowned: "Tell me, did you secretly take calcium supplements behind my back? How come you've suddenly grown so tall?"
He was only a head taller than her last semester, but now he has to stand on tiptoe to reach her.
"Is there?"
Li Nanxing scratched his head, then remembered something and cautiously looked at Ye Chuyue: "Sister Yue, I'm currently number one in the grade, how about I tutor you from now on?"
Just as Ye Chuyue was about to agree, a silver minivan screeched to a halt beside them, and two burly men jumped out of the vehicle and dragged the person into it before they could even react.
...
Gu Baiwei had just returned to the Ye family home when her phone rang.
She took it out and saw that it was a message from an unknown number. She thought it was a spam text, but she froze on the spot the moment she saw the content of the message.
Unknown: Ye Chuyue is in my hands. If you want to save her, don't call the police. Come alone to the abandoned factory on the outskirts of the city.
Unknown: If you dare tell that guy surnamed Chen, I'll kill him!
That tone...
The image of that lewd-smiling middle-aged man suddenly flashed into Gu Baiwei's mind. She tightened her grip on her phone, then shoved it into her pocket and strode towards the door.
...
Abandoned factory on the outskirts of the city.
Teacher Wang frowned as he looked at the two unconscious people on the ground: "Didn't I tell you to tie up one of them? Why did you tie up two?"
The man opposite her, with a hideous scar diagonally across his left eye, instantly darkened his expression: "You have a problem with that?"
When Teacher Wang met his fierce gaze, she immediately shook her head: "No...no."
"No, then pay up right now! One hundred thousand, not a penny less."
The scarred man spoke menacingly.
"One hundred thousand? Wasn't it supposed to be sixty thousand?" Teacher Wang was startled by his gaze, but still dared to retort.
"Sixty thousand is one unit of currency, now it's two units."
"But...but..."
"But what? You're trying to renege on your debt?"
The two men behind the scarred man, who had been lounging around, immediately stood up straight and looked at Teacher Wang. Teacher Wang was startled and didn't dare to say another word. She quickly transferred the money.
"I've already transferred the money. It was agreed that you would only leave if you helped me deal with that woman."
Teacher Wang spoke boldly.
The scarred man waved his hand impatiently: "I know, damn it, so much trouble for such a small amount of money!"
Just then, the gate of the dilapidated factory was pushed open with a creak.
Gu Baiwei's smooth black hair was tied into a high ponytail. She wore a fitted denim jacket on top, paired with dark gray loose casual pants and black ankle boots, making her look dashing and heroic.
The three men next to Teacher Wang seemed to have their eyes glued to her the moment she entered.
The scarred man patted Teacher Wang on the shoulder and grinned lewdly: "Since we've taken your money, we brothers will go all the way."
He leered at Gu Baiwei with his eyes, his gaze seeming as if he wanted to see right through her clothes.
Gu Baiwei frowned in disgust. Seeing Ye Chuyue and Li Nanxing lying unconscious on the ground, her fingers slowly tightened under her sleeves: "You have committed a crime. Release them now and I may let bygones be bygones."
"You want me to release them? Sure, crawl over here, strip naked, and serve these guys well, then I'll let them go."
With a lewd grin on his face, the moment Teacher Wang finished speaking, the two men behind the scarred man pounced on Gu Baiwei with lewd expressions.
Gu Baiwei then noticed that in the corner of the factory, directly in their direction, there was a camera set up.
Just as the two men lunged at him, a gunshot rang out, grazing past Mr. Wang's feet.
Teacher Wang was so frightened that he almost peed himself.
"Damn it, you bitch, you dare fight back? Believe me or not, I'll kill you right now!"
As he spoke, he grabbed the unconscious Ye Chuyue by her hair and pulled her up from the ground, his large, rough hands gripping her slender neck.
Ye Chuyue was still unconscious, but her brows were tightly furrowed, and her expression was one of pain.
Gu Baiwei's expression instantly turned cold: "Let her go!"
At the same time, she pointed the gun at Teacher Wang's forehead.
Teacher Wang was shocked to see her bring a gun, and the color drained from her face instantly: "Put down the gun, or I'll strangle her right now!"
As she spoke, her fingers slowly tightened. Gu Baiwei watched helplessly as her daughter was grabbed in someone's hand. Her heart leaped into her throat, but she still desperately told herself to stay calm.
She suppressed the urge to kill them on the spot and gritted her teeth as she said, "I can put down my gun, but I need to make sure they're all alright first."
Teacher Wang and the scarred man exchanged a glance. The latter immediately picked up a brown glass bottle, pinched Ye Chuyue's and Li Nanxing's mouths, and poured the contents down their throats.
"Cough cough..."
A series of coughs rang out, and Ye Chuyue and Li Nanxing opened their eyes in a daze. When they saw their surroundings, their expressions froze. They struggled to speak, but found that their mouths were blocked and they could not make a sound.
"Alright, he's awake. Put the gun down."
The scarred man urged impatiently.
Gu Baiwei gritted her teeth: "Let them leave first, I'll stay."
Teacher Wang remained unmoved: "Throw the gun over here first."
"Then let's count to three, together."
The atmosphere froze instantly. After a long pause, Teacher Wang winked at the other two men and said, "Okay."
One of the men lifted Ye Chuyue and Ye Chuyue off the ground, one in each hand. The effects of the drug hadn't worn off yet, and their legs were still a little weak when they walked.
Realizing what was about to happen, they all struggled and made whimpering noises.
Gu Baiwei winked at them: "Listen to me, once you're outside, keep running straight out; there's a driver waiting for you."
The two fell silent instantly.
Another man, grinning lewdly, approached Gu Baiwei and said, "Little girl, I'll count to three, give me the gun."
"one two three……"
The moment the last number was counted, the man snatched the gun from Gu Baiwei's hand, while Ye Chuyue and Li Nanxing on the other side also ran out at the same time.
As the man snatched the gun, Teacher Wang and the scarred man, who had been waiting for their chance, immediately pounced on him with lewd grins.
