The Beautiful Time With You - Chapter 172

Chapter 172: He Won’t Let Anyone Harm Even A Strand of Her Hair (2)

In that instant, he felt as if something had viciously grasped his heart, giving him pangs of excruciating pain.

The moment Shi Yao was dragged away, he moved his feet almost mindlessly, following her as if he were a remote-controlled robot.

He wasn’t considering whether he’d be able to defeat these men or what would happen to him once he followed them. In that moment, his mind was dominated by just a single thought—since he’d duped a healthy Soft Bun out of her home, it was his duty to see that a healthy Soft Bun was delivered back to her home. He wouldn’t let anyone harm even a strand of her hair.

Huge crowds made up of many groups walked to and fro the night street, so no one had taken note of the strange situation over at Lin Jiage and Shi Yao’s side.

Many courtyard houses were built next to the streets, and only a few of them had people residing inside.

It was hard to say how Qin Yiran and her gang managed to break the lock on one of these courtyard houses, but the tanned and brawny man easily pushed open the doors to a courtyard house. He switched on its lights before walking in with Qin Yiran in his embrace.

The door of the courtyard house was extremely narrow, and only two men could pass at a time.

Perhaps fearing that an accident would occur while entering the courtyard house, one of the men was stationed behind Lin Jiage.

Shi Yao was in front of Lin Jiage, so while entering the courtyard house, Lin Jiage hastened his footsteps until he was just behind her.

A second later, Lin Jiage stepped into the courtyard house, QIn Yiran lit up another cigarette and asked, “Lin Jiage, I’ll give you a choice. Between you and her, who do you think should come in to chat with me?”

But Lin Jiage didn’t bother responding to Qin Yiran’s question at all. After walking roughly a meter into the courtyard house, just as the man behind him had entered as well, he suddenly made his move.

His actions were swift and sudden, catching Qin Yiran’s gang completely off guard. The long-haired man who was covering Shi Yao’s mouth didn’t even manage to release a yell before he was punched onto the ground. Following which, Lin Jiage grabbed Shi Yao’s wrist and pulled her into his embrace before forcefully kicking the man behind him.

At this point, Qin Yiran and her gang had finally moved into action. While spitting vulgarities from their mouths, they swiftly swarmed around Lin Jiage and Shi Yao.

As the courtyard house wasn’t very large, the distance between each individual wasn’t too far. It took a mere second for the others to rush up to the two of them.

But paying no heed to the group before him, Lin Jiage lowered his head and whispered a single word to the young lady in his arms—”Run.”

As soon as that word reached Shi Yao’s ears, she suddenly felt a powerful force pressing on her back, pushing her out of the courtyard house. Before she could even steady herself, ‘guang lang’, the doors of the courtyard house behind her was already shut tight.

And Lin Jiage hadn’t followed her out.

Shi Yao’s first thought was to call the cops, but when she reached for her pocket, she realized that she hadn’t brought her phone with her to the bathroom earlier. It was in the bag she had left in her seat.

Shi Yao’s second thought was to barge inside the courtyard house and pull Lin Jiage out with her. She tried pushing on it, but it wouldn’t budge.

She swiftly realized that Lin Jiage was jamming up the door.

She couldn’t enter, and those men inside couldn’t leave either.

That “Run” that he’d whispered was a reminder for her to sprint with all her might as soon as she was out of the courtyard house, all the way until she was finally safe… And from the very start, he had never intended to leave with her.
