Translator: 549690339
“Don’t come any closer, or I’ll smash it!”
That voice, it was Yu Weiwei’s!
Xu Chaomu grew even more anxious, indeed, this money was not so easily earned.
She stood outside, burning with impatience, pacing back and forth, yet she couldn’t think of a good solution.
“Yo, chick, you’ve got quite the temper. Go on, smash it then, but after you’re done, you’re still taking it off!”
The men inside erupted into loud laughter.
There was a “clang” as the sound of something being smashed could be heard.
“Damn it, you really smashed something? And you dared to throw it at me? I’m going to strip you now!”
“Don’t touch her!”
Just then, Xu Chaomu heard another girl’s voice. It was muffled by the walls, but Xu Chaomu still recognized it. It was MO Shuifu!
How could MO Shuifu be here?
“MO Shuifu, don’t think that just because Shen Shihan spoke a few words for you last time, you can push your luck. While I’m still in a not too bad mood, you’d better step aside, otherwise I might strip you too, and then you can’t blame me for not showing mercy,” a man said.
Xu Chaomu didn’t understand what it meant, Shen Shihan? Shen Shihan? Brother Shen?
“She’s my friend, just a tea server. Let her go, and we can negotiate the rest,” MO Shuifu’s voice was cold and crisp, like the lonely plum in winter, chilly but imbued with a sense of pride.
“MO Shuifu, we can let her go, but then, does that mean you’ll be looking after us tonight?”
The man’s teasing voice became increasingly wanton.
Yu Weiwei spoke up: “Don’t even think about it. Even if we die here today, we won’t let you have your way.”
Xu Chaomu became even more anxious. Yu Weiwei was usually quite clever, how could she become so stubborn at a time like this?
Stupid!
The more you resist, the happier these wolves get.
Isn’t Li Beiting her second uncle? Just mention Li Beiting’s name, and that should be the end of it!
Even though she would be scolded later, it was still better than being humiliated right now.
Xu Chaomu pondered and prepared to rush in.
It was a do-or-die situation. For a friend, she would go through fire and water.
That’s just how righteous Xu Chaomu was!
As she was about to kick in the door, suddenly, someone in the room screamed, “This chick’s jumped out the window!” Jumped out the window?
Yu Weiwei jumped out the window?
Xu Chaomu didn’t know where she got the strength from, but with a “bang,” she kicked and shouldered the door open!
“Cough cough cough.” The room was full of smoke and swirling fumes.
Xu Chaomu coughed non-stop, her eyes scanning the room rapidly!
A group of people were lying at the window, each with a different expression, all very complicated.
There was horror, fear, indifference, amusement… Their expressions varied, and after a few seconds of silence, an uproar ensued, with a flurry of discussions.
Xu Chaomu then remembered, there was a river outside this window!
Yu Weiwei, like her, couldn’t swim!
“Quick, go save her, Weiwei can’t swim!” Xu Chaomu shouted at the top of her voice.
Before the others had time to react, MO Shuifu pushed past Xu Chaomu at the door and ran rapidly downstairs!
As she passed by Xu Chaomu, she left a trail of a sweet and pleasant floral fragrance.
“Shui Fu! Shui Fu!” Xu Chaomu didn’t have time to concern herself; she followed MO Shuifu and ran down as well.
Someone said loudly from behind, “What do we do? Could someone die from jumping down there?”
“Scatter quickly, and if anyone dares to call the cops, I’ll kill them!”
“Stop fooling yourself. They jumped from our spot; if the cops come, none of us can escape.”
“Then we’d better stick to the same story. The chick fell by accident, and if anyone dares to babble, I’ll cut their tongue off!”
“Yes, yes.”
“What about those two chicks that just ran out?”
“Chase after them, bring them all back. Also, send someone to dredge the river.
If the police ask, we’ve got our bases covered.”
“Right, get down to the river quickly.”
Xu Chaomu followed MO Shuifu to the first floor; MO Shuifu seemed very familiar with this place. After descending the stairs, she darted into an alley with rapid steps.
Running out of breath, Xu Chaomu gasped, “Shui Fu, wait for me!”
“Chaomu, you go call the police!” MO Shuifu didn’t look back.
She didn’t know how Xu Chaomu and Yu Weiwei ended up in Weiyang, a place teeming with all sorts of people.
When she first arrived, she had also almost been bullied if not for a man known as “Brother Shen” who said a few words on her behalf, which allowed her to survive up to this day.
Now that Yu Weiwei was in such trouble, she had every reason to save her.
She was a few years older than Xu Chaomu, who she always treated as a little sister, and naturally, she also considered Yu Weiwei a friend.
“Shui Fu, what are you going to do?”
Before MO Shuifu could answer Xu Chaomu, Xu Chaomu heard a “splash”—Mo Shuifu had jumped into the water!
“Shui Fu! Shui Fu!” Xu Chaomu cried out, her eyes moistening against her will.
But she stood by the shore, helpless. She couldn’t swim.
It was the first time she felt such despair, seeing two good friends jump into the river while she couldn’t do anything.
Still, she managed to keep her composure, refraining from wailing. Instead, she rushed to a phone booth and dialed Li Beiting’s number!
Her mind was still clear, and she briefly explained the situation.
Li Beiting was about to sleep, but as soon as he heard the news, he sat up with a “swoosh,” ran down the stairs without even changing his slippers, and drove his Maserati towards Weiyang!
“Xu Chaomu, who allowed you to go to Weiyang with Yu Weiwei?” he scolded fiercely, his tone frighteningly cold.
“Big brother, don’t ask about that now, okay? Saving them is what’s important!” Xu Chaomu was desperate.
She was already sweating profusely.
“What use is panicking now! I’m on my way, I’ve already called the police station! ”
“Then drive faster, Weiwei can’t swim, you know that,” Xu Chaomu said, stamping her foot in frustration.
“Xu Chaomu, shut your mouth! If anything happens to Weiwei, I won’t let you off easy!” Li Beiting’s attitude was domineering, and his tone was chillingly impersonal.
“Okay, okay, I’ll take full responsibility, just rescue Weiwei for me, you can yell at me all you want.”
Li Beiting had floored the accelerator, running through several red lights.
Hearing Xu Chaomu’s words, he clenched his teeth and furiously tossed the phone aside, his hands gripping the steering wheel, he switched to racing mode!
He wouldn’t let anything happen to Yu Weiwei!
Xu Chaomu was hung up on, she paced back and forth on the riverbank.
The cold wind blew over her, but she didn’t feel cold at all; instead, she kept sweating.
Nothing would happen, Yu Weiwei would definitely be alright, and Shui Fu too…
They would all come back safe and sound…
Soon, the police arrived at Weiyang, and in no time, police tape was up, and everyone in room 209 of Weiyang was detained.
The river was pitch-black; while Xu Chaomu stood by the river, the police took her back to the hall for questioning..
