Chapter 280 The Rescue

Noticing Li Xianxian’s aggressive look and Mrs. Ye’s unkind look, Tang Xia took a deep breath while suppressing the stabbing pain in her foot, feeling very helpless.

She turned to look at Ye Yifan, asking for his help. But Ye Yifan unnaturally evaded her gaze.

She felt as if her heart was hit hard by something, even her breath was bringing her stabbing pain. Seeing her helpless and rattled look, Li Xianxian sneered with satisfaction.

Li Xianxian ran over to help Tang Xia pick up those glasses pieces and said in a low voice that could only be heard by the two of them, “You thought you’d be different when Ye Yifan took you here, didn’t you?”

Tang Xia suddenly lifted up her head and looked at Li Xianxian, only to see her smiling.

“Listen, he dares not retort to me in his parents’ presence, no matter what I say.” Then, she picked up a piece of glass with a victorious smile.

But suddenly, Li Xianxian’s hand was cut, no one knew if it was done intentionally or unintentionally. Blood was dripping down from her hand. Li Xianxian pretended to be wronged and looked at Ye Yifan with red eyes. “Ah! My hand!”

Mrs. Ye hurried over to her, looking very nervous, as if her own daughter had been cut. “Ah, how could you be so careless! Zhang, go and fetch our first-aid kit!”

Then, she took Li Xianxian’s hand and carefully blew on it.

Noticing Li Xianxian’s tearful eyes sneering at her, Tang Xia unconsciously clenched her fists. They looked like a harmonious family while she was like an annoyance to them.

The most important thing was that Ye Yifan just stood there, neither saying anything nor showing any attitude!

Tang Xia had had enough of all of this. She pounded on the table, ground her teeth while glaring at Li Xianxian, and yelled word by word, “If you think that posturing to be a decent lady makes you one, well, I’d rather be a common woman!”

Then, she went straight to get her bag and forced her way out, without looking back.

Ye Yifan was surprised, and when he was about to go catch up with her, Li Xianxian, who was holding her bloody finger and looked very pathetic, stopped him. “Yifan! It hurts! Look at me!”

Ye Yifan frowned and refused to look at her obviously. But Li Xianxian up ran to him and stood in front of him. So Ye Yifan had to look at her.

Mrs. Ye saw Tang Xia leaving and turned to look Ye Yifan and Li Xianxian, who were in a stalemate. Then she said after a cough, “All right, Yifan, come back and sit here. Bandage Xianxian. Zhang, give the first-aid kit to Yifan.”

Looking at the first-aid kit, Ye Yifan had to take it over. Although he wanted to refuse, he had no courage to disobey his mother’s order.

Tang Xia regretted it when she was outside because she had arrived here in Ye Yifan’s car. Her own car was not here. That meant she had to take a taxi.

But when she got to the street, she found no taxis there. Ye Yifan’s parents lived in a villa, which was distant from downtown. It was difficult to get a taxi here.

After a long time, there was still no taxi and Ye Yifan did not show up either. The last hope that Tang Xia had originally clung to disappeared totally at that moment.

Tang Xia went to a hidden place and took off her shoes. She felt exhausted when she saw the bruise made by Li Xianxian and her red foot made by the high heels.

She started to sob when thinking of what happened just now, and then she just walked barefoot. There was no one else on the way back home. Tang Xia then cried out loud.

She did not know how long she cried. She did not put on her high heels until she met some people, and she tried to lower her head so that others would not recognize her. After all, she had captured the headlines in recent days.

But Tang Xia still felt wronged and was in a flood of tears along the way. She finally felt relieved when she saw her house.Updates by vi p novel

When she sped up back home, suddenly several men blocked her way. Tang Xia raised her head in confusion, only to recognize them as hooligans nearby. She unconsciously cursed to herself. “God, what a bad day!”

Those hooligans found such a beauty weeping, so they wanted to tease her. “Hey, sister, why are you crying here? Who upset you? Let us help you vent your anger, what do you think?”

Tang Xia rubbed her eyes, which became as big as two nuts because she had cried for so long, trying to make herself see everything clearer.

She pushed them away and yelled, “Bah! It’s none of your business! I’ve had a bad day! You’d better leave me alone!”

Then, she tried to rush out. But it was not a livestream and she had no gun either. She was just a girl being blocked with nowhere to go.

The leader seemed interested, touched his chin, and sneered at her body, with filth in his eyes.

“Hey, little girl, you have a fierce temper. But would other places on your body are fierce! Come on! Drag her in!” then he looked around and said to other hooligans.

The other hooligans got the order and tried very hard to drag her into the alley. Tang Xia found herself in a bad situation and immediately started to struggle.

At the critical moment, a man rushed over suddenly and he questioned in a low, righteous voice while pointing at them. “What are you doing!?”

The leader raised his eyebrows and looked at him with contempt. “Where are you from? Don’t you know what’s good for yourself? It’s none of your business. You’d better leave us alone! You may get bloody!” Then, the other hooligans pulled out knives.

That man did not step back and suddenly gave them a mocking smile. “You think you’d be the leader here with only a few knives, don’t you? Shame on you!”

Then, he went straight to kick away the knife held by one of the hooligans. Everyone was stunned. They did not expect him to be so speedy and resolute.

The leader became a little discouraged. After all, they rarely encountered a powerful man. Others would just run away when seeing their knives. That was why those hooligans were still running wild around here.

“Hey! Come on!” The leader pointed to that man but his body couldn’t help moving back.

A bold hooligan held onto his knife and rushed over at the man. Then, the man directly tossed him with an overarm throw.

Those hooligans stared at him in fright and ran away after throwing their knives down. Looking at the hooligan who was sitting on the ground in fright, the man pointed to the alley. “Get out now!”

The hooligan ran away as fast as possible. Tang Xia slowly stood up with the help of the wall. The man hurried over to help her. Tang Xia waved at him and struggled to walk by herself.

After all of this, Tang Xia felt sadder. But she knew that tears meant timidness so she had to hold them back.Access v ip novel

The man was still worried about her, as she was in a daze, so he followed her.

After thinking about it for a while, he put on the kindest smile he could and said, “Where’s your home? What’s your name? Oh, my name is Su Yanxun. No need to thank me for what I did just now. That’s what a man should do!”

Because of the constant questions, Tang Xia couldn’t help turning back to look at him. The man was shocked and had no idea what to do. Looking at his adorable look, Tang Xia burst into laughter.

The man was surprised by her smile obviously. If he was right, she was crying just now. Immediately, he was at a loss and had to scratch his head. “Why are you laughing? But, you look pretty when smiling!”

Tang Xia was surprised by his sudden compliment, and then she came to her senses and thought him quite interesting. After pondering over it for a while, she said slowly, “You asked me so many questions. Which one should I answer?”

The man felt pleased and rushed over to look at her as if they were old friends. “Whichever, it’s up to you! I believe we can be good friends!”

Tang Xia already became immune to his flattery in just five minutes. Those sad things seemed to be left behind after she encountered him.

“First, my home is just nearby. Second, my name is Tang Xia. Third, I have no plan to thank you. The end.”

The man felt a little disappointed by her tidy answer. “Hey, why be so indifferent? What’s your job? I’m a streamer in the Era Time-travel Company! Oh! Tang Xia, that sounds familiar…”

When he was about to say something more, suddenly a car parked in front of them. Tang Xia unconsciously frowned. Then, Ye Yifan got out of the car.

Looking at the man suddenly appearing, Su Yanxun sensed an unusual aura.

He was right. Ye Yifan rushed over to grab Tang Xia’s hand and looked at her apologetically. “Sorry. I’m sorry for everything just now.”

A flicker of disgust flashed across Tang Xia’s eyes. She threw his hand off and turned to leave impatiently. But Ye Yifan would not let go of her so easily and tried to seize her again.

But Su Yanxun, who was standing next to her, blocked his way. Ye Yifan finally discovered the man next to Tang Xia.

He stared at Su Yanxun in confusion, and hostility could be seen in his eyes. “Who are you? Why are you following Tang Xia?”

Su Yanxun noticed the hostility in his question and thought that he had to be her boyfriend or pursuer who had done something wrong.
