Lu Xiong originally came to find Shen Qingyue because he had no face left. Now, he was furious.
“Damn it, you b*tch! Even at death’s door, you’re still talking tough! You’re just a second-hand item played by Qin Zhen, and you dare to mock me! Don’t you like finding men? Tonight, I’ll let you have a good time with them! These men are all I found for you, I guarantee you’ll enjoy it!” Then he shouted, “Get her!
Whoever catches her first gets to have fun!”
Because they had witnessed Shen Qingyue’s abilities the last time, this time he had intentionally brought more people. He did not believe that they could not catch Shen Qingyue with five of them!
Shen Qingyue’s phoenix-like eyes narrowed slightly as she reached into her bag, preparing to take something out.
However, at this moment, a stern shout came from behind, “Stop!” Two bodyguards quickly emerged from behind Shen Qingyue and started fighting with Lu Xiong’s men.
The bodyguards were professionally trained, and their moves were fast and ruthless. The people Lu Xiong had brought were just some street thugs, and they were quickly knocked down.
Qin Zhen was pushed forward and stood in front of Shen Qingyue.
Shen Qingyue raised an eyebrow, “President Qin, taking a stroll at night again? A stroll all the way to the parking lot? Or are you engaging in stalking behavior again?”
Qin Zhen’s face was tense, “Shen Qingyue, what’s your attitude? I’m helping you!”
“Helping me? I wouldn’t dare trouble you, President in. You helped me twice, and both times, my head was bleeding, my back was beaten, and I had to recover for over a month. Afterwards, you used that debt of gratitude to morally blackmail me…” Shen Qingyue tugged at her lips, “President Qin, this time you’re helping me again. When do you plan to come and collect your favors, or are you going to say something to disgust me again?”
Qin Zhen’s face turned completely dark, and his eyes were sinister, “If it weren’t for me helping you, you would have already been taken away by them!”
Shen Qingyue looked at the men around her, bypassed Qin Zhen, lifted her leg, and kicked a man who was trying to sneak up on her.
She then turned to Qin Zhen, “Is that so?” She still had anti-wolf spray in her bag, and even if Qin Zhen did not intervene, she could still handle this group of people. Besides, she had set up one-touch alarm buttons, and there were surveillance cameras here. Did they really think there were no laws in this world?
Qin Zhen was taken aback by her transformation. In the past, Shen Qingyue had revolved around him, seemingly incapable of anything else. But now, she not only mastered self-defense techniques but also managed the company with great efficiency, leading it to new heights. In his ignorance, the woman who used to follow him meekly, pleading for even a moment of his attention, appeared to be growing more confident and, dare he say, enchanting.
He had to admit that Shen Qingyue stirred something in him. In this moment of attraction, he softened his tone and said, “I’m just concerned about you; you don’t have to be so assertive.”
Little did he know that this was the original, uninhibited Shen Qingyue, someone he had never truly paid attention to.
“Concerned about me?” Shen Qingyue chuckled. “I wonder how your future wife would react if she heard that?”
Mentioning Wei Jiu’er irritated Qin Zhen, making him feel both frustrated and guilty. He knew he should not interfere in Shen Qingyue’s life, but he could not control himself. He was well aware that Shen Qingyue had a place in his heart. However, he could not admit to these feelings and simply said, “I’m helping you out of old friendship, it has nothing to do with Jiu’er.”
“What old friendship is there between us? Are you still dreaming?” Shen Qingyue retorted. “But I am curious, President Qin, why are you in a wheelchair today? With such a serious accident, one would think you have nothing else to do.”
Qin Zhen remained silent. He had come here solely because he wanted to see Shen Qingyue, but he couldn’t confess to it. He didn’t want to betray Wei Jiu’er, the person he should truly love. So, he found an excuse for his actions, saying, “I came to ask you for compensation. That day, you had someone vandalize my car, but they still haven’t paid…”
“President Qin,” a deep, rich voice echoed from the entrance of the parking lot.
“You should have discussed compensation with me.”
Chi Ming stepped into view, his tall and imposing figure clad in dark trousers, accentuating his long, muscular legs. He approached with graceful strides, with Fu Daoyu by his side.
Almost the moment Qin Zhen saw Chi Ming, his face soured.
Chi Ming walked up to Shen Qingyue and stopped, his gaze fixed on Qin Zhen. His handsome face remained cold and aloof. “I had your car vandalized, and I did promise to compensate. I even provided the address.. But instead of sending me the bill, you’re here bothering Miss Shen?”
