Looking at the pleading eyes of the young girl, Su Fan's heart softened.
"What do you want to do by following me?"
"Can you take me to eat?"
Su Fan was stunned for a moment.
The girl hurriedly explained.
"I will pay you back."
"That's not what I meant, well, I was about to eat, let's go together."
Su Fan took the girl to a small restaurant nearby.
After ordering a few Sichuan dishes, before Su Fan could start eating, the girl had already begun devouring the food hungrily.
"Eat slowly, don't choke."
Su Fan poured a glass of water for the girl.
The girl, without holding back, soon cleared the whole table full of dishes like a whirlwind.
The girl let out a satisfied burp, her face turning red as she bowed her head and said awkwardly,
"Sorry, I, I've finished it all."
Su Fan thought the girl must be from a poor family.
Coming from a poor background himself, Su Fan felt a surge of compassion.
"I didn't take much cash with me, here, take this."
He took out a wad of small bills from his pocket, amounting to two or three hundred.
The girl immediately waved her hands in panic.
"I'm not a beggar, nor a homeless girl, just in a bit of a situation, I temporarily don't want to go home…"
"Thanks for the meal, I will pay you back, I need to leave now."
The girl stood up to leave.
Su Fan did not stop her.
They met by chance, and it was enough.
The girl had just reached the door when a probing voice called from behind.
A girl and two boys appeared, the girl with short hair wearing a school uniform and heavy makeup, the boys in bean shoes and hipster hairstyles, seemingly street-smart lads.
The girl instinctively looked back.
When she saw those three, her expression immediately turned to panic, and she turned and ran forward.
She seemed very afraid of these three people.
"It really is Sun Rui, hehe, chase her..."
The short-haired girl led the two boys quickly in the direction the girl had gone.
Su Fan, just about to reorder, noticed something was wrong and hurriedly followed.
Sun Rui ran into a narrow alley, the short-haired girl and her companions followed.
Unfortunately, Sun Rui ran into a dead end.
Looking at the high wall in front of her, Sun Rui was filled with anxiety.
Meanwhile, the short-haired girl had caught up with her entourage.
The short-haired girl, breathing heavily, then pointed at Sun Rui and sneered,
"Run, continue running."
"Did you think by not going to school you could escape from my grasp? Hmph, catch her."
The two boys behind her immediately rushed up and grabbed Sun Rui from both sides.
The short-haired girl stepped forward and viciously slapped Sun Rui.
Sun Rui's face was covered in blood, a distinct palm print visible on her pretty face.
But Sun Rui did not dare to resist, nor did she dare utter a single curse.
She just cried and begged for mercy.
"Li Yuan, please spare me, I really can't do what you asked, please let me go."
"Can't do it? Who are you pretending to be innocent for?"
"It seems I need to show you my power before you understand my severity."
Malice filled Li Yuan's face.
"You two, strip her."
"Then take turns with her..."
Upon hearing this, the two boys became visibly excited.
The boy with red hair immediately reached out and tore open Sun Rui's jacket zipper and her inner tank top, exposing her small, pale chest.
"No, please, please spare me."
Sun Rui cried bitterly, but only received two slaps in return.
Following that, Sun Rui was pinned against the wall, the red-haired boy about to pull down her pants.
Sun Rui was in tears, completely despairing
She even thought about biting her tongue to commit suicide.
Just at that critical moment, the red-haired boy screamed, lifting the hand that was about to remove Sun Rui's pants.
His hand was struck by a stone, and he began to bleed profusely.
