He didn’t ask much, just started the car and headed towards the beach.
Along the way, An Ruo was somewhat nervous. She kept glancing at the cars on the road, attempting to discern something.
Because it was early spring, the beach was very cold and almost deserted.
Tang Yuchen found a place to stop the car, and An Ruo opened the door to get out, not knowing what to do next.
The man took her hand and started walking toward the sand.
"Baby, why did you come to the beach?" The wind here is too strong and there really isn’t anything fun.
Thinking this, he took off his suit jacket and draped it over An Ruo. "Don’t catch a cold."
He looked at her with warm eyes, speaking with concern.
An Ruo quickly averted her gaze, feeling a bit uneasy to look into his eyes.
His suit jacket was large, covering her torso completely when she wore it.
It carried his scent, a fragrance she recognized. The smell of it made her feel a dull pain in her chest.
The lingering warmth of the jacket also drove away some of the chill for her.
She ought to reject it, to take off his jacket and give it back to him, but in that instant, she remained still, not even she knew why.
Just then, a few thugs carrying sticks approached them.
Tang Yuchen narrowed his sharp eyes. Without a doubt, they were targeting them.
He immediately pulled An Ruo towards the car, his steps slightly hurried.
It wasn’t that he was afraid of not being able to handle them but rather that he feared accidentally hurting An Ruo.
To him, the attackers might have come to rob them, or they could have been sent by his enemies.
An Ruo noticed this too. She followed him anxiously, and seeing that they were trying to flee, the thugs no longer pretended and started running towards them.
Tang Yuchen swiftly opened the car door, pushed her in, and slammed the door shut with a thud.
At that moment, a stick came down from behind, but he turned and caught it in time, kicking the assailant away with one blow.
All the thugs raised their sticks and charged at him, but he didn’t evade. Instead, he quickly knocked down two of them.
With his skills, they were no match for him.
Suddenly, the sound of cars came from behind him. He turned to see two old vehicles discharging many men with sticks, who charged fiercely at him.
Tang Yuchen cursed quietly, now sure they weren’t robbers but certainly sent by an enemy; otherwise, there wouldn’t be so many of them.
An Ruoxin watched everything with horror, her face nearly pale.
She saw Tang Yuchen being surrounded, and her heart instantly tightened, she couldn’t help feeling worried.
While they were caught up in the melee, one of the thugs slammed on the car window, pounding on the door and giving her a menacing look.
"Open up, and if you know what’s good for you, leave the car!"
An Ruo moved back slightly, her hand accidentally resting on the inside pocket of the suit, where she felt a mobile phone.
Relieved, she was about to take out the phone to call the police when the thug whispered rapidly, "Get away quickly, we’ll hold him off, Mr. Yun will be up ahead to assist you!"
An Ruo was taken aback. They really were sent by Yun Feiyang!
The thug continued to pretend to threaten her to exit the car. Tang Yuchen, noticing this, knocked down several men and shouted at her, "An Ruo, run now, don’t worry about me!"
An Ruo looked back at him. He wasn’t injured, just that those people were difficult to shake off, preventing his easy escape.
They wouldn’t really harm him, would they? After all, they were only surrounding him and not being too excessively violent.
