After taking a few steps forward, Mo Bei spoke softly, "Today, I’ve caused you some trouble!"
"Aren’t we friends? Why be so polite?" Jiao Yang turned his face to look at her, "But I’m a bit curious, where exactly did you go?"
Mo Bei laughed, "It’s a secret!"
Jiao Yang shrugged his shoulders.
Seeing his expression, Mo Bei smiled and continued, "Actually, I didn’t go anywhere special, just took Tongtong for a brief outing in the suburbs!"
"Tongtong?!" Jiao Yang stopped in his tracks, "What did you do this time?!"
"Don’t worry, I didn’t hit her, or scold her, I didn’t even touch her." Mo Bei grinned mischievously, "I just took her to do some extreme sports!"
Jiao Yang chuckled, "The girl must have been scared to death by you, right?"
"Nope, definitely not, only half dead at most." Mo Bei laughed.
Jiao Yang gently shook his head, "You..."
"She slapped me, I slapped her back. It was even, but she deliberately rammed into my car. I couldn’t just let her bully me, could I?!" Mo Bei said matter-of-factly, "A woman like her needs someone to teach her a lesson. I’m just helping her, right?"
Jiao Yang stopped walking and, while laughing, held her arm. He raised his hand to pull up her long hair, noticing the scabs from wounds behind her ear, and merely frowned.
"Should we go see a doctor?!"
"These little wounds are nothing, I’m fine!" Mo Bei raised a hand to remove his, but she saw several men in black suddenly rush from a parked car on the road. She gasped and grabbed Jiao Yang’s wrist, "Run!"
Jiao Yang glanced confusedly over his shoulder, seeing several tall men in black racing toward them. Though puzzled, he instinctively followed Mo Bei as they swiftly fled.
They ran through the underground passage, Mo Bei pulling him along while the men in black followed closely behind.
"This way!"
Hearing the gathering footsteps inside the courtyard, Mo Bei turned, grabbed Jiao Yang, pressing her back against the fence.
"Quick, kiss me!"
"What?!"
Her voice was so low that Jiao Yang didn’t catch it.
Seeing the flashlight beams nearing, Mo Bei suddenly pressed him against the fence, her lips meeting his in a sudden kiss.
The moment their lips touched, a tingling sensation spread through both of them, as if the other’s lips carried an electric charge. Struck by the strange feeling, both were momentarily stunned.
"What are you doing?!"
At this moment, several security guards arrived with dogs, forming a semicircle surrounding Mo Bei and Jiao Yang, their flashlights shining directly on them.
