Several men were about to make their move when Shen Weiyi suddenly kicked the knee of the man on her left and simultaneously elbowed the abdomen of the man on her right, using the opportunity to break free from their grip. Then she threw a high kick, hitting another man in the back.
Behind Shen Weiyi was a more robust man who, after being kicked, just took a small step back and quickly reached out for Shen Weiyi’s shoulder again.
Just as he was about to grab Shen Weiyi’s shoulder, suddenly a pair of hands reached out from the side, grabbed Shen Weiyi’s wrist, and pulled her away from the man behind.
Shen Weiyi was pulled into a cool embrace, smelling the familiar, faint woody scent of the other party. Quickly lifting her head, she saw the distinct jawline of the newcomer.
Shen Weiyi couldn’t help but be momentarily stunned.
Today was the last day of the conference, and Shen Weiyi had thought he wouldn’t be back until tomorrow.
Before she had a chance to ask why he was there, a sudden whooshing sound came from behind. Instinctively, she pulled Sheng Ting aside and turned around, only to see a man swinging a stick at them again.
Shen Weiyi dodged while looking for an opportunity to knock the stick from the man’s hand.
On the other side, Shen Tan was captured again.
Just as Shen Weiyi was about to step forward, Sheng Ting held her back and said, "Wait."
Shen Weiyi looked up at him doubtfully.
Sheng Ting lowered his voice and said, "I’ve already called the police. Try to stall for time and avoid direct confrontation."
Shen Weiyi nodded slightly and then stepped forward, saying, "Stop, are you just upset about being embarrassed at the bar earlier? Look, if you agree to let everyone go, I’m willing to apologize."
"Okay, but just apologizing seems insincere. How about you call out to us a few times first? If it sounds good, then I might consider letting them go," the Bald Man said with a lecherous smile.
Upon hearing this, Shen Weiyi’s face involuntarily darkened.
Sheng Ting also frowned and coldly addressed the group, "This is a lawful society. Your actions have already broken the law. If I were you, I wouldn’t make reckless moves."
The Bald Man sized him up and said, "Oh, look at this pretty boy, trying to play hero? I’d advise you to mind your own business, or you might get beaten too. If you don’t want to get hurt, better scram and stop interfering."
Sheng Ting calmly said, "There are cameras all over this area near the school. If you beat someone, you can’t escape. It’s better to do less than necessary, especially since bullying two girls is hardly something to be proud of."
"You think it’s over just because you say so? Who do you think you are? Guys, don’t listen to his nonsense. Hit him too!" the Bald Man shouted.
As the other men were about to strike, suddenly a police whistle blew, "What are you doing? Everyone stop, police!"
Two police cars stopped, and seven or eight officers got out.
"Not good, the police are here, run!"
The men, seeing the police, instantly chickened out. The two who were holding Shen Tan let go of her and turned to run.
Shen Tan, now free, quickly grabbed the Bald Man’s collar and picked up a high heel from the ground to hit him repeatedly on the head.
"Running away? Weren’t you acting tough just now? Didn’t you want to hear us sisters call out? Want me to call out for you now?"
