Chapter 12

The fat man was extremely angry and scolded, "You stinky bitch, how dare you kick me. Watch how I deal with you." Sᴇaʀch* Thᴇ N0vᴇlFirᴇ.ɴet website on Gøøglᴇ to access chapters of nøvels early and in the highest quality.As he spoke, he wanted to come forward and hit her again.

Su Ningxi's eyebrows were tightly knitted. She retreated a few steps back and said, "You dead fat man, how dare you take advantage of me. It seems you are tired of living."

Seeing Su Ningxi's pockmarked face, the fat man taunted, "With your ugly looks, I'm willing to touch you. You should obediently listen to me, otherwise don't blame me for crippling you if you don't heed my warning."

At this time, two men hurried in from outside, "Big brother, what happened just now? Are you okay?"

Seeing his younger brothers arrive, the fat man spat on the ground, "Nothing happened. Catch this smelly woman for me."

"This is the woman Sheng Wei asked us to cause trouble for." One of the younger brothers looked at Su Ningxi and asked unceremoniously.

Sheng Wei?

Su Ningxi grasped two pieces of information. A woman surnamed Sheng asked someone to cause her trouble.

Logically speaking, she had just arrived in the capital and was using another identity. It was impossible for her to offend anyone. Could it be Sheng Wei? She suddenly remembered the look Sheng Wei gave her when she left that night. There was no need to guess, it must be her.

At this moment, the fat man slapped his younger brother on the head and scolded loudly, "You fool, spouting nonsense."

Su Ningxi asked aggressively, "Speak! How much did Sheng Wei give you? I'll double it."

The younger brother was shocked and spoke, "How did you know it was Sheng Wei who..."

"Mmpf..." Before he could finish speaking, the other younger brother covered his mouth.

The fat man almost fainted from anger. He questioned the other younger brother, "Didn't I tell you to wait outside? Who allowed you to bring him in?"

"We heard screams inside and thought big brother was in trouble, so we came in to take a look."

The fat man thought of the kick he had just received and how it still hurt badly. All his anger came out at once, "What could happen? I can handle a woman, can't I?"

The younger brother whose mouth was released looked confused, "Big brother, did I get into trouble again?"

The fat man was kicking instead of hitting now. He kicked him in the butt, "Stop wasting words. Hurry up and catch her. If you mess things up again this time, don't bother coming back."

Su Ningxi did not look back and kept running forward. She stopped at the elevator and frantically pressed the button several times. The footsteps were getting closer and closer. It looked like she was about to be caught. She had no choice but to abandon the elevator and ran upstairs, taking two steps at a time and running very fast.

Finally, after running up unknown floors, she could run no more. She ran into the corridor, intending to find a utility room or something to hide first. If she kept running like this, her legs would give out before she got away.

Now she finally understood that the saying "human potential is unlimited" was absolutely right. If she didn't run this time, she wouldn't have known she could run so well. What a pity she didn't participate in the marathon with such good athleticism.

The two men behind her panted and said, "This woman...can run so f*cking fast. Ran away. Chasing her is tiring to death."

"I can't go on. I need to rest for a while."

Hearing the two people's conversation, Su Ningxi didn't even dare to breathe loudly around the corner.

Looking up, she saw a door ajar across the way. She couldn't care less now. Surviving was the most important. She quietly pushed the door open and walked in.

The spacious and luxurious room had no one inside. She vaguely heard sounds that seemed to be running water from the bathroom.

Su Ningxi pressed her palms together and silently prayed in her heart. Whoever was inside, handsome guy, beauty, rich man, old lady, please don't come out! Saving one life is better than building a seven-story pagoda. I'll just hide for a bit and leave immediately. Please, please!

After about five minutes, the water sounds in the bathroom stopped. Su Ningxi's heart pounded faster nervously. Even if the people chasing her were not outside, she couldn't leave now because when she first came in, the door had closed firmly. This door was weird and couldn't be opened without a key card.

What to do, what to do? Just as she was anxiously at a loss,

"Kacha."

The bathroom door opened.

Huo Yuchen came out of the bathroom wearing a white bathrobe. His hair was still dripping wet. The belt of the bathrobe was not tied very tight and hung loosely around his waist. Half of his muscular chest was exposed, glistening under the light.

Su Ningxi unconsciously swallowed and thought, so this is the legendary beautiful man fresh out of the bath picture. Is that vaguely revealed chest muscle the same one she had touched before?

"Get out! Who let you in?" A roar pulled her out of her indulgence in Huo Yuchen's figure.

Only then did Su Ningxi react that the man in front of her was Huo Yuchen. The chest she just thought was eye candy instantly became unappealing after seeing Huo Yuchen's dark and gloomy face.

Old Heaven sure loved playing jokes on her, allowing her to run into him even with her eyes closed.

Putting on an insincere smile, she pushed up the big black-framed glasses that took up half her face and looked at him guiltily, "I'm so sorry! I accidentally walked into the wrong room. Could you please help me open the door? Your door is too advanced that I can't get out without swiping a card."

Huo Yuchen clearly did not believe her words. He had just taken medicine and she showed up in his room. There was no way such a coincidence could happen in the world.

He walked over and grabbed her by the neck, asking dangerously, "Speak, who sent you?"

"Let...let go...you let...go of me..." Su Ningxi was almost choked by him and couldn't catch her breath.

Just as Su Ningxi felt she was about to suffocate, Huo Yuchen finally released her.

Cough cough...

Su Ningxi gasped loudly for air. She looked at the man in front of her with fearful eyes. For an instant earlier, she felt she had already seen the two Horseface and Oxhead Guardians.

She accused, "Are you trying to murder me!"

"Speak." Huo Yuchen seemed very impatient to listen to her, his face extremely dark.

"No one sent me. Some people wanted to harm me so I accidentally broke in to hide."

Huo Yuchen's aura sank a few more degrees.

Su Ningxi was scared he would go crazy again. She explained, "It's true, I swear. You can check the surveillance recordings if you don't believe me."

As she spoke, she subconsciously covered her neck. Her neck really couldn't stand being strangled by him. If it happened again, she might really have to move away.
