"Aunt Zhang, are you going out?" Aunt Zhang knew this wasn't the question she wanted to ask, but she had to start with it regarding today's guest.
"Mm?" Lan Baobao was just about to leave.
"Mr. Gu Feng came by to see you today." Aunt Zhang knew that Gu Feng was a good friend of Lan Baobao, but she still didn't let Gu Feng know that Lan Baobao was home. Aunt Zhang also understood that perhaps Lan Baobao needed some rest and time to calm down.
Hearing these two names made Lan Baobao's heart skip a beat. "And then?" Gu Feng, I'm sorry, I didn't mean to avoid you.
"I told them you were out, and then they left. I can wait for you to come back before they return." Aunt Zhang knew this was related to Ye Zixun, so she didn't bring it up again and casually made up a story. "Oh." Lan Baobao continued on her way out. "You don't need to keep the door open for me; you should rest early. I won't be back tonight." Lan Baobao truly regarded Aunt Zhang as family.
Not coming back tonight didn't mean she was going to Ye Zixun's place. Of course, Lan Baobao wouldn't want to go back to that house in Huqiu, even though her children were still there. But as long as Grandpa Ye was around, Lan Baobao wasn't worried about the two kids; they would be just fine.
When Lan Baobao walked in, the lights were dim, and no one noticed her. It had been a long time since she last came here. Lan Baobao softly murmured to herself about how she had become like this.
However, this feeling was something Lan Baobao liked; at least it allowed her to temporarily forget everything in this noisy environment. Little did she expect that all of this was a stark contrast, and all the joy belonged to others.
"A glass of soda water." After placing her order, Lan Baobao felt ridiculous; had she really come here just for water? It would have been better not to come at all; wasn't this supposed to be about indulgence?
"Make it a glass of Tequila instead." This should get her drunk, right? At that moment, she wondered if her alcohol tolerance was so high that only such strong liquor could numb her. This wasn't Lan Baobao's usual style, yet here she was doing exactly that. She decided not to think about anything and just indulge for once.
At that moment, Ye Zixun and Gu Feng were both searching for her everywhere; this feeling of hiding was quite nice. She had already tossed her phone into a nearby trash can—who could find her now?
"A glass of Martini." A charming male voice spoke. The man gently placed the drink in front of Lan Baobao. But who knew what this guy was up to?
Lan Baobao looked up at the unfamiliar man; he had a tall stature and bronze skin, vaguely resembling an ancient musical figure. His features were distinct and deep-set, giving him a wild and carefree appearance. He seemed flirtatious and playful. Lan Baobao pushed the drink away with irritation and continued drinking; at that moment, she truly hated how well she could hold her liquor.
"Sis, are you refusing my kindness?" The man's voice was incredibly charming as he pushed the drink back toward Lan Baobao. Clearly, this man wanted to play with her.
Lan Baobao raised her glass and drank it all in one go, but suddenly felt dizzy. After all, it was just for fun; it was all the same.
The man took advantage of the situation to support Lan Baobao's slumping body and then pulled out a card. "I'll take care of the bill for this lady." Of course, that drink was problematic.
The car sped along the elevated road, and Lan Baobao slowly opened her eyes, squinting slightly. Her head was still a bit dizzy. She couldn't even remember what she had just done. It seemed her memories were becoming hazy.
Just as Lan Baobao was about to get up, she saw the man in the driver's seat. It dawned on her that he was the same person who had bought her a drink at the bar! Then… Lan Baobao suddenly understood; the drink had clearly been drugged! She wasn't foolish enough to miss that. Becoming alert, she sobered up instantly. She then noticed that there was someone else in the passenger seat, a man around thirty years old, but she couldn't see his face clearly.
At first, Lan Baobao was extremely frightened, but after a while, she managed to calm herself down and regain a rare sense of composure. Sometimes, when you realize you truly have no one to rely on, you can only depend on yourself.
The most important thing was to find a way to call for help. However, her handbag was nowhere near her. Given the tense situation, Lan Baobao had no idea what else she could do.
"Don't be afraid, baby; Mommy will protect you." At that moment, Lan Baobao suddenly felt a strong desire to protect this child, her child with Ye Zixun. For some reason, her mind was flooded with memories of their time together.
Suddenly remembering something, Lan Baobao cautiously took out the lipstick she had used before leaving home from her pocket, afraid of alarming the two men in front. She leaned toward the driver's seat; as long as her movements weren't too large, they wouldn't easily notice in the rearview mirror, especially at night. Slowly extending her arm to an angle where it wouldn't be seen in the rearview mirror, she gently drew a large "ss" on the car window. At that moment, Lan Baobao was grateful that she had put a lipstick in the pocket of her fitted skirt before leaving; it turned out to be a wise move. Then Lan Baobao continued to pretend to be oblivious.
It was indeed difficult to see those letters at night, but it also represented hope. Gu Feng and Ye Zixun were frantically searching for Lan Baobao, as if she had vanished into thin air and they couldn't find her anywhere. At that moment, Gu Feng happened to be driving back from a rural farm where he had once gone with Lan Baobao, thinking she might be there. Sometimes it felt like fate; just as Gu Feng's car passed by the vehicle that had kidnapped Lan Baobao, he caught sight of the large "ss." However, he didn't pay much attention until he drove quite far away and suddenly realized—"ss," it was a life-and-death matter! But when he looked back again, that car had already disappeared into who knows where. Thinking about finding Lan Baobao, Gu Feng felt an overwhelming sense of urgency.
But this was also about saving a life; after hesitating for a moment, Gu Feng decided without further thought to go rescue this person.
With a swift motion of his hand, Gu Feng turned the steering wheel sharply and didn’t care whether it was a one-way street; he quickly maneuvered his car back onto another road and sped after that vehicle like an arrow released from its bow. Gu Feng had always been someone who stood up for others.
He followed closely while maintaining a safe distance. The black car finally came to a stop in an open area far from downtown Hong Kong. A handsome young man got out of the car first, followed by a somewhat sleazy-looking man in his thirties.
They carried Lan Baobao out of the vehicle. The middle-aged man clearly looked pleased with how things were going with the young man.
"You, how are we going to deal with this girl?" The man's voice was still as alluring as ever. Who knows? A wolf in sheep's clothing, truly, one cannot measure the human heart.
"Really beautiful, this must be your highest quality encounter yet." The young man clearly seemed a bit afraid of the sleazy man. From the sound of it, this was definitely not the first time.
"Tonight, we’re going to savor the taste." I really didn't expect that the refined man could say such vulgar words. Truly disgusting.
"Then I should go first!" It seems these two were indeed very sleazy and despicable.
"Of course, big brother..." Anyone who heard such words would feel like throwing up.
Gu Feng felt nauseated just hearing this conversation. He was thinking about which girl would be so unfortunate! Gu Feng couldn't believe his eyes; it was actually Lan Baobao! It really was Lan Baobao! Gu Feng could no longer suppress the anger in his heart. If it were any other girl, Gu Feng might have considered the situation, but since it was Lan Baobao, anyone who dared to harm her would not have a good end. Gu Feng's heart felt as if it had been put through a meat grinder, bloody and aching. It truly hurt to see what was unfolding before him; if Lan Baobao were really harmed, Gu Feng knew he would never forgive himself for the rest of his life.
Then he thought of Ye Zixun, look at you, this is how you protect your wife.
Gu Feng got out of the car and slammed the door shut. The sound was inexplicably loud, and of course, the two men clearly noticed this suddenly appearing man.
"Let her go!" Gu Feng's eyes were bloodshot, like an enraged beast.
"Gu Feng!" Hearing that voice, Lan Baobao suddenly felt hope; it must be you! Her heart had already thanked him countless times. Lan Baobao knew that for now, it was better to keep pretending; at least it wouldn't provoke the two thugs into attacking her and would allow Gu Feng to focus on dealing with them.
"Where did this kid come from?" The young man looked cultured but turned out to be a filthy person.
"Who cares? Let's go!" The middle-aged man charged towards Gu Feng. It seemed another fight was inevitable.
Gu Feng remained completely unflustered; he kicked out with his foot, causing the young man to fall to the ground. Then he fiercely grabbed the middle-aged man's collar and swung his right hand hard towards his face.
But the young man suddenly hugged Gu Feng from behind, shouting, "Big brother, grab the knife!"
"No, Gu Feng!" Lan Baobao heard this and became a bit flustered, quickly getting up to help Gu Feng.
In the meantime, the middle-aged man's knife had already lunged toward Gu Feng. Gu Feng remained calm and agilely dodged, but the knife grazed his left shoulder, quickly staining his white shirt with blood.
It was truly unexpected that these two lewd men would dare to do this.
"Gu Feng!" Seeing this scene, Lan Baobao nearly fainted.
Gu Feng ignored the pain and forcefully threw the young man to the ground, then punched him twice in the face. At that moment, Gu Feng was completely enraged.
The middle-aged man lunged at Gu Feng again. Seeing this, Lan Baobao rushed forward and grabbed the middle-aged man's leg. The man grabbed Lan Baobao by the neck and slapped her hard across the face. The slap nearly made Lan Baobao faint. It was important to note that she was pregnant.
Seeing this, Gu Feng kicked the middle-aged man fiercely, causing him to fall to the ground without any strength to get back up.
"Go!" Gu Feng pulled Lan Baobao and ran toward the car. "Get in, hurry!" Gu Feng's heart was filled entirely with thoughts of Lan Baobao. For her sake, no amount of pain mattered.
Gu Feng quickly started the car while Lan Baobao remained shaken. Gu Feng's left shoulder was indeed severely injured; the wound was undoubtedly deep, or else it wouldn't still be bleeding now. However, Gu Feng focused on driving and did not pay attention to it. When Lan Baobao turned her head to look at him, she saw that his expression was emotionless, but it was clear that his face was gradually turning pale.
