A scream of agony rang out as one of Xiong Ye's eyes was stabbed, bleeding profusely. Ye Wan tried to stab again, but Xiong Ye grabbed her wrist. His face, full of thick flesh, was contorted with rage. Ye Wan, having been prepared, kicked him in the lower body. Another scream escaped him, and Xiong Ye instinctively let her go.
Ye Wan stood up, intending to jump out the window and escape. However, Xiong Ye's screams had already alerted the men outside. They rushed in, saw Xiong Ye covered in blood, and then saw the woman they had captured trying to flee through the window. One quick-thinking man lunged forward, grabbed Ye Wan by the hair, and yanked her back.
Ye Wan fell heavily to the ground. The man then kicked her hard again. Ye Wan curled up in pain, knowing that if she didn't escape now, she was completely finished!
Without hesitation, she raised the shard of glass in her hand, intending to cut her own carotid artery. She would rather die than let these beasts have their way!
However, her intent was already detected by these vicious men. The man grabbed her wrist and snatched the glass from her hand, throwing it away.
"Grab her for me! I'm going to kill her today!" Xiong Ye wailed, covering his eyes, truly like an enraged bear.
Ye Wan was dragged over. Xiong Ye slapped her across the face and ordered his men to hold down her hands and feet, preventing her from moving. Xiong Ye then moved closer, intending to assault her.
Ye Wan fell into complete despair...
A loud "bang" startled everyone. They saw a bloody hole appear on Xiong Ye's forehead, and then his tall body toppled backward.
Fu Huai Shen lightly blew on his gun and walked in with a smile. Everyone was terrified, their faces changing color the moment they saw him.
Fu... Fu Huai Shen!
It was Fu Huai Shen!
How could he be here?
Who was Fu Huai Shen? The overlord of the entire Y Province, someone nobody dared to provoke!
"Are you bullying this young girl on my territory with my permission?" Fu Huai Shen smiled at them, but his smile did not relax them; instead, it sent chills down their spines.
Everyone immediately dropped to their knees, a whole group of them, trembling and not daring to even raise their heads, wishing they could disappear from this world.
Fu Huai Shen no longer looked at these people. He walked to Ye Wan's side and looked down at the girl who appeared to be in a terrible state. He reached out to gently brush aside her hair.
"Don't touch me!" Ye Wan recoiled in disgust.
"Hey, little girl, you really don't know what's good for you. I came to save you," Fu Huai Shen insisted on brushing her hair aside.
"Mr. Fu, she is my woman!" Gu Yun Ting strode in, followed by a swarm of bodyguards.
Fu Huai Shen reluctantly withdrew his hand and said with a smile, "I've saved her for you. Don't forget the conditions you promised me."
"Everything I, Gu Yun Ting, say counts!" Gu Yun Ting walked up to Ye Wan, bent down, and picked her up. Nestled in his arms, Ye Wan finally felt her heart settle as she smelled his familiar scent.
Then she fainted. Before losing consciousness, Ye Wan thought with sorrow that even though Gu Yun Ting was her enemy, she could only allow herself to lose consciousness in his embrace.
"Then I will await Mr. Gu's good news." Fu Huai Shen had not seen Ye Wan's face clearly. He was truly curious about what kind of girl could make the overlord of the capital, Gu Yun Ting, so anxious.
