She had anticipated what would happen to her once order collapsed.
But she didnโt expect it would happen so quickly.
The few short steps the stranger took towards her filled her mind with a flurry of thoughts, suddenly recalling many things.
She remembered her family doctor, who, at first, she didnโt quite understand. But when she did, she reported him to her mother through a phone call.
But the doctor turned it around, saying that he was diligent and didnโt dare slack off in his work. He claimed that the young misses was trying to intimidate him and was lying on purpose.
Her temper indeed wasnโt so great.
So the doctorโs words seemed very convincing. When her mother fired the doctor, she gave him a large sum of money to soothe his โwounded spirit from being tormented by the young missesโ.
As Bai Youwei thought about these past events, she slowly clung to the rabbitโฆ
She made up her mind.
The three men approached her, leering at her openly. ๐๐โฏโฏ๐โฏ๐๐๐ฐ๐ฃโฏ๐ญ.๐ค๐ฐ๐ฎ
They were unkempt, sleazy, their eyes dull.
Not only that, she guessed these men werenโt intelligent. Managing to survive so far purely on a kind of ignorant, fearless savagery.
Formerly marginalized and despised by society, now they were the leaders of the survival team, receiving respect and adulation. What could make them more inflated than this change of status?
Bai Youwei propped herself up on her arm and sat up, shouting out in a panicked voice: โWhat are you going to do? Donโt come any closer! Donโt come any closerโฆโ
The neighboring restaurant suddenly fell silent.
All the little chatter disappeared, as if everyone had collectively died in their sleep that very instant.
โLet me go! Donโt! โฆDonโt! Helpโฆโ
She struggled valiantly while calling for help in a feeble voice. The metallic shelf beneath her creaked in response to her movements, mixing with the thugsโ cruel laughter; it rang out clear and grating on this silent night.
No one came to her rescue.
People are always generous when it doesnโt endanger their own interests, but at other times, they demonstrate the height of selfishness and indifference.
Perhaps the commotion was too much, a man with glasses cloaked in a coat come over from the restaurant.
The thugs halted their actions. One of them, a skinny tall man with a necklace looked at the man with glasses with especially provocative eyes. He lightly weighed the dagger in his hand, pointing the blade forward, a threatening gesture.
The man with glasses glanced at the knife, then at Bai Youwei who was curled up. He frowned, looked away and said, โKeep it down, her brother will be back soon. โ
The skinny tall man chuckled, glanced at his companions with a mocking grin,
โDid you all hear that? Boss Zhang told us to keep it down.โ
The other two snickered and intentionally replied aloud, โWe heard you! Keep it down!โ
Upon completing their taunts, they burst into laughter, becoming unruly and outrageous. freewe(b)novel.c(o)m
The face of the man with glasses grew darker.
But he ultimately didnโt say anything further, instead turning back to return to the restaurant, unwilling to meddle in this troublesome affair.
โCoward!โ One of the thugs spat a mouthful of saliva at his retreating figure, his eyes full of contempt.
Having successfully challenged the authority of the leader, the thugs felt triumphant. However, they failed to notice Shen MO had returned and was standing at the entrance of the supermarket with a cold expression.
Bai Youwei, holding the fluffy rabbit, gave Shen MO an almost imperceptible shake of her head.
Shen Moโs eyebrows knit together as he realized what she was thinking.
Earlier when they had just entered the service area, they had charged the fluffy rabbit for a while. Bai Youwei was now probably trying to test the power of the โone-tenth of meโ.
But, lightning was not easy to control. She didnโt have confidence she could strike the thugs as accurately as The Inspector. To prevent accidental injuries, she didnโt want Shen MO to get close.
If the power was not strong enough, it wouldnโt be too late for him to step in then..
