Jiang Cheng had a premonition that something would happen tonight and didn’t dare let Grandma Shen and the others go back alone.
With the elderly and the little ones, fortunately, Sun Jiandong came over, so they might as well make use of him.
Sun Jiandong, praised by one elder and two youngsters, was more attentive than serving his own grandfather, and escorted Grandma Shen home with his head held high and chest out.
Shen Xing: Seems like I’ve learned a bit of Sister Jiang Cheng’s style.
Shen Yue: Sister Jiang Cheng is amazing!
Not far behind them walked Lin Chengyuan and He Dan, quietly listening to the laughter ahead.
However, this time Lin Chengyuan did not ask He Dan about Jiang Cheng.
Since the last humiliation, He Dan had once cried with gentle complaints.
Crying that she didn’t want Lin Chengyuan to mention Jiang Cheng and crying about her love for Lin Chengyuan, making it hard for her not to care.
In the end, the two reconciled as before, and their relationship improved.
Meanwhile, Jiang Cheng accompanied Jian Yueer and several other girls as they walked, parting at the intersection.
"Don’t be afraid, just walk quietly."
"And take this, one pack each."
Jiang Cheng handed out small packs of super chili powder to the girls.
"If you encounter a bad person, throw this and run, yelling ’Fire!’ as you go, got it?"
The girls memorized it, practicing silently, gripping the chili powder tightly, and bravely parted ways.
Jian Yueer also carried chili powder, walking into the alley with Jiang Cheng.
The tapping footsteps sounded particularly loud in the night, and Jiang Cheng, in a good mood, started a conversation with Jian Yueer, her unique teenage voice breaking through the darkness.
They would soon be home.
Jian Yueer could already see the apartment building; there should be nothing wrong, probably just her imagination.
"Run!"
Jiang Cheng suddenly pulled Jian Yueer, sprinting forward.
Jian Yueer stumbled, her heart racing, adrenaline surging, overtaking Jiang Cheng in a few steps, pulling her to run.
"Take action!"
Jiang Cheng shouted, and suddenly a dozen flashlight beams shone.
Dozens of men with clubs rushed out from hidden corners.
In the blink of an eye, the four men who tried to cover Jiang Cheng and Jian Yueer’s noses and mouths were surrounded.
Without thinking, they gave them a beating before talking.
Amidst the fighting, the big men cried for mercy.
"Stop beating!"
"Stop beating! You’re going to kill someone!"
"I was wrong! I truly was wrong!"
"Alright, stop!"
Jian Yueer’s father and the head of the textile factory’s security department stood forward together.
The security chief picked up the fabric on the ground, sniffed it gently.
"Knockout drugs."
"Damn it! Screw you! You even think about my daughter, I’ll kill you!"
Jian Yueer’s father was angry and scared.
If it weren’t for that phone call today, would his daughter have been drugged and taken away?
He couldn’t imagine that outcome.
Jian Yueer’s father was held back by a coworker, and several security personnel tied up the four men tightly with hemp rope.
Someone found a stick, threaded it through the middle of the rope, and two people lifted, making the bound men look like dead pigs, raised up.
Meanwhile, other classmates’ fathers, uncles, and brothers also sprang into action.
Using the same method, they gave a round of beating before anything else.
Jiang Cheng stood with Jian Yueer outside the fight, and after the four men were carried away, Jiang Cheng asked Jian Yueer, "Do you want to go back or come with us to the police station?"
Jian Yueer’s mother, aunt, and sister-in-law also arrived, standing by her side.
Jian Yueer trembled all over, too scared to speak for a moment.
It was real!
