Chapter 70: Just to Save Your Life!
Dong Ruolin sat slumped on the ground, covering the wound on her leg, her eyes closed in despair.
The young man crouched down, gripping her chin, and looked at her disheveled hair as she defiantly turned her head away, intensifying his desire to torment her.
His fingers caressed Dong Ruolin’s face in a suggestive manner as he ordered, “Take her to my car. Let me have my fun first.”
The onlookers, seeing the woman in such a pitiable state, couldn’t help but chime in, “Wei Shao, such a rare beauty, don’t forget about us brothers!”
The young man laughed heartily, “Once I’m done, it’ll be your turn! What’s the rush?”
Dong Ruolin’s face turned pale as she listened to their unabashed vulgarities.
At that moment, seeing the young man about to grab her, tears streamed down her face as she resigned herself to death.
“Ah!”
Just as she was determined to bite her tongue and end her life, a series of painful screams echoed nearby.
Someone was coming!
A gust of wind rushed from behind, and the young man turned sharply, meeting the oncoming fist.
“Ugh…”
The young man felt an overwhelming force hit him, sending him flying.
Stumbling back a few steps, he knelt on the ground, spitting out a mouthful of blood.
His companions had already collapsed on the ground, unconscious or worse.
Dong Ruolin was startled by this sudden turn of events, her tear-filled eyes looking hopefully at the newcomer.
“Are you here to save me?”
A sense of relief washed over her, feeling as if the man in black before her, wearing a mask, was like a deity descending from the heavens.
The man in black did not respond, his cold gaze pausing slightly as he took in her disheveled appearance.
“Damn it! Kill him!” A few masked men, just snapping out of their daze, tightened their grips on their weapons and charged forward.
Before Dong Ruolin could even feel fear, the man in black effortlessly picked her up and dashed outside.
Leaning gently against the man’s chest, her fingers trembled as they clutched his neck, and the angry shouts and pursuit behind her no longer frightened her.
Who was this person? Why did he make her feel so safe?
After a day filled with extreme highs and lows, Dong Ruolin wearily closed her eyes, a thought flickering in her mind.
How strange, this person felt somewhat familiar, as if she had seen him somewhere before.
But she did not know that this mysterious man holding her was Ye Chen, her good friend’s husband.
Ye Chen had driven by and happened to see Dong Ruolin surrounded.
Fearing for her safety, he had put on a mask to come to her rescue.
After his body was enhanced by a strand of spiritual energy obtained from a Hetian jade pendant, Ye Chen’s skills had improved significantly, and he was much faster than before.
Moreover, with the many alleys in the area, Ye Chen quickly shook off his pursuers.
Carrying Dong Ruolin, he ran a considerable distance before stopping in a secluded area where no one was around.
As night fell, the dense vegetation in this quiet spot would help conceal them even if their pursuers caught up.
He set Dong Ruolin down and noticed her pants were soaked in blood, causing him to frown.
Although Dong Ruolin had lost a lot of blood, she was still barely conscious and, with a pale face, gratefully said, “Thank you for saving me. May I ask… who are you?”
Ye Chen’s expression remained cold, and he did not answer.
She had always looked down on him and acted arrogantly, so there was likely no chance for them to interact further.
His decision to save her was merely out of consideration for Xiao Churan.
Thus, he had no intention of revealing his identity.
Seeing that he remained silent, Dong Ruolin understood he did not want to disclose who he was.
However, she was someone who believed in repaying kindness and settling scores. Dong Ruolin felt troubled, not knowing how she could repay such a tremendous favor without knowing his identity.
Just as she was pondering how to express her gratitude, the man suddenly leaned down and ripped open her pants!
Feeling a rush of cool air on her thigh, Dong Ruolin was both shocked and angry, her face flushing red as she exclaimed, “What are you doing?!”
She had thought this man was a hero, a savior from her dire situation, but he turned out to be another lecher! Ripping her pants like that was even worse than the previous scoundrels!
But realizing she was injured and that this man was incredibly strong, she feared she wouldn’t be able to escape his grasp.
It seemed she had just escaped the wolf’s den only to fall into the tiger’s mouth…
Tears streamed down Dong Ruolin’s face, filled with defiance and despair as she choked out, “If you dare to force yourself on me… I will die right here!”
Ye Chen was momentarily speechless and helplessly replied, “You’re injured quite severely, the wound is deep. At the rate you’re losing blood, you might faint before reaching the hospital. I’m just trying to save your life!”
As he spoke, Ye Chen began to tend to her wound.
Seeing his skilled movements, Dong Ruolin realized she had completely misunderstood him.
However, she had been taught since childhood that men and women should not have physical contact, and now, with her thigh nearly exposed and being held by a man for treatment, she felt so embarrassed she wished she could disappear into the ground.
Her face flushed crimson, she lowered her head, unable to look at him, and shyly said, “Thank you… and I’m sorry for misunderstanding you earlier.”
