Gu Mingcheng's ferocious smile terrified Tang Li.
"Lock her up! I'll make sure Lu Jianshen suffers a fate worse than death!"
Tang Li tried to escape, but there was absolutely no chance!
She was pinned down in the warehouse, her cheek touching the cold, dirty, and moldy floor!
There was a small window through which Tang Li could see everything happening outside, but her mouth was taped shut, so she couldn't say a word.
She could only watch helplessly, unable to do anything about it.
Gu Mingcheng ordered his bodyguards to beat him mercilessly, and Lu Jianshen did not retaliate at all, but silently endured it.
As the wounds on his face multiplied and bloodstains began to appear on the ground, Tang Li tried to break free of the ropes.
She could only whimper, and despite her best efforts to struggle, the ropes bound her tightly.
Lu Jianshen collapsed to the ground due to exhaustion.
No one knows what Gu Mingcheng said, but his bodyguards became even more aggressive.
Suddenly, the rope on his hands came loose behind him.
Tang Li turned around and saw that the two black-clad bodyguards who had trapped her earlier had been knocked to the ground.
Chen Lei has arrived.
Chen Lei came over to rescue Tang Li first, loosening the rope on his hands. Tang Li quickly tore off the tape from his mouth.
"Go save him!"
Any later, and Lu Jianshen might really have lost his life.
Outside the door, the bodyguards Chen Lei brought surrounded the entire dock; Gu Mingcheng had lost.
However, Lu Jianshen was also seriously injured.
"Boss, let me take you to the hospital first!" Chen Lei frowned, his face serious.
With the last of his strength, Lu Jianshen asked him, "Is she alright?"
"Miss Tang is alright, she's fine now."
Chen Lei quickly had someone help Lu Jianshen into the car, and Tang Li followed closely behind, heading to the hospital.
Lu Jianshen was covered in injuries, but fortunately none of them were fatal.
"Don't worry, the patient is fine for now, but needs plenty of rest and may need about two weeks to recover!"
Tang Li nodded and watched the doctor turn and leave.
She rushed into the ward. Lu Jianshen was pale, but he still had a smile on his face.
"See, I told you not to come first. South Bay is a chaotic place!"
Lu Jianshen looked at Tang Li, and although he spoke words of reproach, there was no hint of accusation in his tone.
Tang Li stepped forward and hugged Lu Jianshen.
"I won't take that risk again next time."
In just the past hour, Chen Lei has collected all the data from several nearby pearl shops.
“Miss Tang, here is the phone number of the pearl shop owner. If you need to find them, you can call them directly. In the meantime, please spend more time with Mr. Lu as he recovers.”
Tang Li nodded; she hadn't expected Chen Lei to be so efficient.
Just as she and Ding Weiwei had predicted, Nanwan was a treasure trove, a place full of pearls!
"I think I've discovered a new opportunity!"
Now that Xu Ruoxue has financial support and Tang Li has discovered such a good raw material market in Nanwan, it's time to make a big splash.
After four months, Yan Hui's new drama has finally wrapped up filming.
Tang Li originally wanted to go to Xi'an in person to attend his wrap-up ceremony, but unexpectedly received a call from Xu Anuo.
Xu Anuo told her that Yan Hui suddenly lost control of her emotions on set and assaulted the investors.
"What did you say? He beat up the investors?"
As she said this, Tang Li couldn't help but glance at Lu Jianshen lying on the hospital bed.
Lu Jianshen was also one of the investors, so which investor did Yan Hui attack?
Which investor is it?
Xu Anuo sighed, "Xu Zicheng!"
She also felt that Yan Hui was too impulsive, and she didn't know what the investors had done wrong, so she went to visit the set!
Who knew that when Yan Hui saw Xu Zicheng, he went crazy, rushed up to him, and punched him in the face.
The staff were stunned. Several people went to break up the fight, but they couldn't separate them. In the end, Xu Zicheng was beaten black and blue.
Tang Li: ...
The problem sounds pretty serious.
After hanging up the phone, Tang Li turned around and glanced at Lu Jianshen.
Lu Jianshen lay on the hospital bed, still flipping through the magazine in his hand, seemingly unaware of what she had just said on the phone.
Tang Li hesitated for a moment, then stepped forward and asked Lu Jianshen, "Do you know someone named Xu Zicheng?"
"Are you one of the investors who co-starred with me in the new drama?"
Upon hearing this, Tang Li nodded and looked at Lu Jianshen with anticipation.
What kind of person do you think he is?
Why ask that?
Lu Jianshen put away the magazine in his hand, looked up at Tang Li, and had a puzzled look on his face.
Tang Li pursed her lips and explained, "Yan Hui doesn't know what happened either. He made a mistake and accidentally hit Xu Zicheng. And... it seems like he hit him pretty badly."
Did Yan Hui hit Xu Zicheng?
That's all there is to it.
Lu Jianshen was stunned for a moment when he heard this, but then he was not surprised at all.
"Xu Zicheng deserved it. Don't worry, he won't pursue it. But I have to ask, why are you so worried about Yan Hui?"
Tang Li didn't understand why he said such a thing.
However, she had already explained the reason: Yan Hui was her savior.
Last time in the mountain village, if Yan Hui hadn't carried her out on a snowy night to treat the snake venom on her leg, Tang Li might have died.
"If Yan Hui hadn't risked his life to save me back then, I wouldn't be alive today."
