In the alley of Blackwater Street.

“Run, keep running. Do you think you can run away?”

Qin Miaomiao kept retreating. Her back was pressed against the rough cement wall as she looked at the person opposite her warily. Today was Qin Miaomiao’s 18th birthday party and her father had invited many friends over, so she also drank some wine. On the way to the washroom, a few hooligans who reeked of alcohol suddenly stopped her and chased her all the way to this dark alley.

One of the hooligans with dyed yellow hair held a cigarette in his mouth as he sized up Qin Miaomiao. Her face was fair and beautiful, and her skin was so tender that it looked like water could be pinched out of it. Her black hair was slightly curled and scattered around her collarbone, giving her an innocent yet sexy look.

“Who are you? If you let me go, I can pay you a lot of money.” Qin Miaomiao bit her lip and placed her hands by her sides while secretly pinching her thighs. She had drunk alcohol and felt dizzy, so she could only rely on the pain to maintain her consciousness.

“Let you go? How is that possible? We’ve been lusting after a rich young lady like you for a long time.” The blondie laughed while the buddies behind him also revealed lustful gazes.

“Be good. We will definitely make you comfortable.” The blondie inched closer to Qin Miaomiao, but in the next second, he covered his crotch and screamed. Qin Miaomiao didn’t dare to stay any longer after attacking. She turned around and ran.

“Damn it, b*tch, I’m going to kill you today! Hurry up and catch her. Don’t let her escape!”

“Ah…” Qin Miaomiao’s scalp turned numb when her long hair was grabbed from behind. Right on the heels of that, the sound of her skirt tearing could be heard. Her long skirt was instantly turned into a short skirt, and her shoulder straps slipped off.

Qin Miaomiao’s face turned pale. No, she couldn’t let this happen! She suddenly retracted her hand and scratched the man’s face with her sharp nails. Amidst the man’s ear-piercing scream, Qin Miaomiao felt the hand that was grabbing her hair loosen and she seized the opportunity to tun forward.

The blondie flew into a rage behind him. “Trash! A bunch of trash. You can’t even catch a woman! Hurry up and chase after her!”

At this moment, a loud bang came from the end of the alley and a car’s incandescent light instantly illuminated the dark alley. After Qin Miaomiao closed her eyes reflexively, she ran forward desperately.

The hooligans behind Qin Miaomiao were still chasing after her. Just as they were about to catch up to Qin Miaomiao, a man suddenly got out of the deformed car. The man’s face was covered in blood, and his well-defined fingers were pressed against the wall. Lu Shiyan forced himself to stay rational, but the medicine in his body was very strong, like a ferocious beast that was clamoring to rush out. Unexpectedly, a girl in a sorry state suddenly appeared and even grabbed his hand. Then, the girl’s fragrance entered his nose.

“If you save me, I can give you compensation. I have a lot of money, or you can make other requests…” Qin Miaomiao really had no way out and could only grab the man’s hand tightly.

Lu Shiyan frowned. He was about to be tortured to death by the drug, but this girl threw himself at her without a care and even pulled him along. Who knew how much self-control he needed to restrain himself from touching her?! Just as he was about to shake off Qin Miaomiao’s hand, Qin Miaomiao suddenly hid behind him and said in a trembling voice, “Please, save me…”

“Damn woman, come out! Sir, I advise you not to meddle in other people’s business. You don’t seem to be in a good state either. Be careful that we’ll take your life too!” The blondie threatened as he took out a switchblade from his pocket.

Lu Shiyan narrowed his eyes. One, two… five? Five people were chasing a young lady and bullying her?

“Is that so? Give it a try.” Lu Shiyan wiped the blood off his face and rushed forward before the blondie could react.

“Since you have a death wish, don’t blame me! Brothers, attack!” The five of them instantly surrounded Lu Shiyan.

Qin Miaomiao’s heart skipped a beat and she held her breath. That person… would he be alright? He was innocent… Qin Miaomiao’s palms were sweating and just as she was about to rush forward to help, she heard the blondie scream in pain. She hurriedly looked up and saw a shiny switchblade piercing into the blondie’s palm in the darkness. After Lu Shiyan subdued the blondie in an instant, he asked the others cold voice, “Who else wants to die?”

With that, the group of hooligans ran away in fear. The blondie didn’t even dare to pull out the knife in his palm as he staggered away. This man was a grim reaper!
