Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
But who could this person be? For a moment, Shen Qingyue thought of many people. It seemed like she had managed to earn some hatred? However, regardless of the situation, she decided to stay put. After all, there was no one around, and if she tried to escape, she would be easily caught.
Shen Qingyue followed the pulling of those few people and got into the car. As she left, she glanced at Yu Zhuang lying on the ground. Some passing cars should be able to take him to the hospital, so she did not need to worry about him. She was well aware that these people would not take her somewhere good.
When they eventually reached a populated area, she did not care where it was. Shen Qingyue started shouting, “I have a stomachache and need to go to the restroom…”
“Don’t cause trouble!” one of the people beside her said with a lecherous look.
“If you really want to go, why not come into big brother’s embrace, and I’ll help
you out…”
The others started getting handsy too. Because they noticed the big brother didn’t stop them, they thought it was permissible. As for Shen Qingyue’s own feelings, it did not matter at all.
Shen Qingyue looked at these people with a bleak look. While they weren’t paying attention, she bit the person who was driving. The driver was in pain and subconsciously loosened his grip on the steering wheel. The big brother on the side rushed to grab the wheel, but it was too late. The car veered into the adjacent lane and collided with another vehicle, causing their car to flip.
Shen Qingyue climbed out of the car window and hurriedly ran towards a nearby alley, paying no attention to the blood on her head. She needed to escape, and she couldn’t imagine what would happen if they caught her.
Because of her injuries and continuous running, Shen Qingyue’s stamina quickly waned. Her mind became increasingly hazy, especially when she saw herself running into a dead-end alley, her heart almost sank.
The surrounding walls were too high for her to climb. The doors and windows were tightly closed, so what could she do? If she ran back, she would bump into those people. She forced herself to stay calm, but the sound of footsteps from behind grew louder. She clenched her teeth, wiped away the blood from her face, and searched for a way out.
The more critical the situation, the calmer she needed to be.
Just as she picked up a stick, preparing to fight for her life, a closed window next to her suddenly opened.
A woman’s voice called out, “Quick, come in!”
The room inside was dim, and Shen Qingyue, already feeling disoriented, couldn’t see the situation clearly. But at this moment, she didn’t have time to think and hurriedly climbed in.
Not long after the window closed, the footsteps outside arrived at the spot.
Ling Bing’er’s men naturally did not recognize Wei Jiu’er’s people, and both sides started arguing. However, Wei Jiu’er did not bother wasting her words. Dealing with Shen Qingyue was up to each person’s ability. The others stopped talking as well and went to search elsewhere.
Hearing that the people outside had left, Shen Qingyue finally breathed a sigh of relief. She then looked at the person who spoke earlier, surprised to find it was Tong Jia.
Tong Jia felt a bit embarrassed when she noticed Shen Qingyue’s gaze, especially seeing that Shen Qingyue was injured. She quickly took out a medical kit, “This is my home, a bit run-down, but clean. I tidy it up often… Let me treat your wounds first…”
She thought Shen Qingyue was uncomfortable in her home, as it was indeed quite dim and damp, despite her efforts to keep it clean.
“Thank you…” Shen Qingyue expressed her gratitude and allowed Tong Jia to tend to her wounds. Luckily, the injury on her head was just a scrape, and it was not severe. After washing away the blood from her hands, she said to Tong Jia, “I won’t talk much right now. I need to hurry to the auction. Come and find me at work tomorrow.”
After speaking, she quickly left.
Tong Jia was a bit worried but still decided to send Shen Qingyue off in a taxi. She did not pry into what had happened earlier.
Once in the car, Shen Qingyue first checked on Yu Zhuang’s condition. The car was now empty, and passersby said the injured people had been taken to the hospital.
Relieved, Shen Qingyue hurriedly went to the auction.
Inside the auction hall.
Qin Zhen had been looking at the entrance not just once. After a while, Shen Qingyue still had not appeared, and even her assistant was nowhere to be found.
“What are you looking at?” Wei Jiu’er asked as she pulled Qin Zhen.
“Nothing.” Qin Zhen sat down and did not say anything more.
Wei Jiu’er grunted and gave a mocking smile inwardly. Wasn’t he waiting for Shen Qingyue? But he would not see her today, or rather, he would never see her again..
