Chapter 144: 144
She had only jerked him around for fun because their relationship had been fake .
His gaze shone with fury and hatred as he thought this, causing the temperature in the car to drop rapidly .
Qiao Lian’s entire body froze with his gaze . However, as she saw Song Yuanxi leaving with that man, she could not help but to grab Shen Liangchuan’s arm and say, “Mr . Shen, what are you thinking? Hurry up and follow them!”
Her words caused Shen Liangchuan to snap back to reality .
He lowered his head and stared at the hand that was currently grabbing his arm . He finally suppressed the complicated emotions in his heart, looked forward and started the car . Only then did they begin following the other car .
The other car was currently driving around Beijing city, but it was rapidly approaching the rural area . Eventually, it stopped at a rather dilapidated area near the west end of the city .
Qiao Lian widened her eyes and looked in front of her . She pointed at a car in front of a small shop and said, “There, the car has stopped there!”
Shen Liangchuan frowned and stopped his car as well . Given that he was a public figure, he consciously took out a mask and a hat . However, before he could put them on, Qiao Lian had already opened the car door and gotten out . She rushed over to the other car!
Shen Liangchuan took a moment to gather his thoughts, which resulted in him being slower to react than Qiao Lian . He frowned and lifted his head again . However, by this point, the girl’s figure had disappeared past the entrance of the shop .
He hurriedly pushed open the car door and got out .
Qiao Lian worriedly rushed inside .
It was a hotel after all, not a shop . There were many rooms along both ends of the hallway . The dim lighting made her feel increasingly uncomfortable .
Furthermore, the atmosphere inside made her want to puke . With a single glance, she could tell that this was a seedy place meant for people to conduct immoral acts .
She looked at her surroundings, before noticing that Song Yuanxi, who was standing in front of her, looked somewhat unwell . She was currently leaning against the man’s shoulder while she walked forward .
She immediately realized exactly what was going on .
As a seasoned reporter with years of experience, she had seen all kinds of scams . The Song Yuanxi in front of her had definitely been drugged .
She moved forward and yelled, “Stop right there!”
The man did not turn around . Instead, he walked even faster!
An anxious Qiao Lian tried to get closer again . However, at this moment, the doors on both sides suddenly opened and a group of thugs rushed towards her .
Qiao Lian’s eyes narrowed and she instantly took a fighting position . As she saw a man run forward to grab her, she stretched out her arm and grabbed the man at once . She then gave him a forceful shove, pushing him on top of another man!
She had taken some martial arts lessons before . However, the little martial arts’ knowledge that she had was ultimately not very helpful against this group of thugs . After all, her bare hands were hopelessly outmatched by the sheer number of thugs surrounding her .
Even though she had just beaten two thugs, more of them rushed up behind her . Then, they surrounded her completely . She had nowhere else left to run .
She worriedly bit her lip . Thugs started to attack her from all sides . Even though she managed to defeat the ones in front, she suddenly felt a flurry of punches attacking her from behind .
Oh no!
They were in deep trouble!
Just as she thought of this, she heard people screaming behind her . Then, a broad-shouldered and warm body pressed against her back . Shen Liangchuan’s usually calm voice was currently filled with worried as he said, “Are you a pig? Did you not know how dangerous it would be in here?”
Qiao Lian froze as she got scolded . She felt an unfathomable yet familiar sensation .
She remembered the other time this had happened… which had been while she was playing a video game .
Some random player was driving her crazy with his in-game antics . As she ran and chased after him, she carelessly fell into his trap . A couple of players hiding to the side of her suddenly burst out of their hiding place . The three players took the opportunity to surround and attack her, causing her life bar to slowly drained away . Right as she was on the verge of death, Zi Chuan suddenly rushed inside .
The voice chat function was switched on, so she heard his exasperated voice over the headset, saying, “Are you a pig? Why are you rushing to your death?”
At this moment, that familiar voice sounded strangely similar to the voice that she was hearing right now .
