Chapter 330 - 327: Other People’s Thoughts Are Hard to Guess
CHAPTER 330: CHAPTER 327: OTHER PEOPLE’S THOUGHTS ARE HARD TO GUESS
Lin Wanwan still underestimated the evil in human nature. In fact, once a person commits an evil act without facing punishment, they cannot stop and will definitely reoffend, becoming bolder and more reckless.
He Junbo, appearing at the doorway, was extremely arrogant and reckless. The drug in Lin Wanwan’s orange juice was, of course, at his behest.
It’s the usual routine within the circle, something everyone is accustomed to.
The others had already moved on to the next round at the KTV, and Pan Duling, who followed him, was also sent elsewhere by him.
With a real snow lotus on the cliff, who cares about a pretentious lofty flower?
Just when the guest room door was pushed to the front for the last time, a pair of fat and greasy thick hands blocked Lin Wanwan’s attempt to close the door.
If it were under normal circumstances, this kind of young master emptied by women would not be able to withstand a punch from Lin Wanwan.
But now, she was weak all over, her limbs numb.
As time passed, the effect of the drug grew stronger. She could barely face a child, let alone a man over 170 centimeters and weighing 130-140 pounds.
The door was fully pushed open by He Junbo, and as soon as he squeezed in, he lunged towards Lin Wanwan, impatiently trying to kiss her face.
Despite having no strength, Lin Wanwan’s years of dedicated practice in Sanda were ingrained in her bones. She immediately bent her leg and struck at the opponent’s abdomen.
"Damn!"
He Junbo let out a muffled groan, bending over in pain like a shrimp, unable to speak, clutching his lower part, gasping for air.
This sudden attack, catching him off guard, is unbearable for any man. Being attacked in their weakest spot can cause pain for tens of seconds at least.
Lin Wanwan couldn’t care about anything else and immediately rushed out of the room, heading towards the elevator, fantasizing she might find a staff member to ask for help, but the corridor was empty.
She wanted to open the Space-Time Gate desperately, but the Space-Time Bracelet remained unresponsive, possibly because her thoughts were too muddled now to open the Space-Time Gate.
But she wasn’t completely hopeless because the room she had booked for Chen Jinyu happened to be right by the elevator, and after walking a few steps, she reached the elevator hallway, holding onto the wall.
Lin Wanwan bit hard on her own tongue, using the bloody taste to gain a moment of clarity, and reached out to press the elevator button, waiting anxiously.
Today was truly the biggest crisis in her life; her low guard was entirely her fault.
Mainly, how could anyone not in the entertainment industry imagine how low some people’s moral baseline could be?
A law-abiding person can never guess what kind of mindset a law-defying person may have, and with so many varied criminal methods, who could guard against them all?
"You little bitch, hit me? Come on, let’s get on the bed and have a good fight!" He Junbo, not completely recovered, braved the pain to chase after her. How could he let the duck in his mouth fly away?
Just as he was about to grab her waist, the elevator doors opened.
Lin Wanwan couldn’t wait for the doors to open all the way and squeezed in desperately, crashing into a tall figure inside.
In desperation, she sought help from anyone, unable to clearly see anything, just murmuring shadows in front of her: "Help, help..."
Her tongue was swollen, making it impossible to speak clearly.
This drug was so potent, she felt as though all her muscles had disbanded.
Inside the elevator, the person held her tight, seemingly saying something, but she couldn’t hear it clearly.
Though not completely engulfed in darkness, her body had utterly no strength left, only residual thoughts could perceive movements.
She was being carried in a princess hold, and immediately, all hope drained.
Alright, as if being bitten by a dog, tomorrow when she recovers, she’ll kill the dog, dismember it, then take it to the Great Tang to feed the fish!
As Lin Wanwan sank into endless darkness, Lu Shouyue was almost driven mad with anger!
Fortunately, he left right after finishing business with an old friend, and luckily, today the direct elevator to the presidential suite at the Time Hotel was under maintenance, making him take this ordinary elevator.
Otherwise, he wouldn’t have been able to save Lin Wanwan!
There’s nothing unclear about the scene before him, the man standing in the fifteenth-floor elevator lobby, a scoundrel in sheep’s clothing, shamelessly claiming Lin Wanwan as his woman, tried to hold her, and was kicked flying by Lu Shouyue.
What scum, how dare he touch Wanwan!
Lu Shouyue didn’t care about that man’s fate; after taking his kick, it seemed impossible for him not to lose a dozen ribs.
Seething with rage just now, Lu Shouyue kicked with full force, possibly causing internal bleeding to the man.
But he held no regrets and did not worry about the ensuing trouble.
He took the elevator downstairs directly to the underground parking lot, carried the sleeping Lin Wanwan into the back seat of his Bentley, fastened her with two seatbelts, and then took out his phone to call the hotel manager responsible for this branch, informing them of the situation on the fifteenth floor, then hung up.
Sitting in the driver’s seat, Lu Shouyue’s hands were trembling on the steering wheel, unable to drive immediately, with his head buzzing.
He glanced at Lin Wanwan lying on the back seat, his heart still pounding, a series of tingling sensations running down his spine.
This situation was even more nerve-wracking than back when he first took over the auction house and encountered the vicious robbers involved in car crash robbery on Hong Kong Island.
Lu Shouyue dared not imagine what would have happened if he hadn’t been there to encounter Lin Wanwan today; he might have committed murder.
Lu Shouyue had not contacted or met Lin Wanwan for quite some time. To forget her, he even left Yongcheng and came to Hai City, practically fleeing.
He realized the sad truth of his unrequited love, wanting to leave Lin Wanwan and return to a peaceful life. How could anyone be absolutely necessary for their existence, would the earth stop rotating?
But upon meeting her again today, Lu Shouyue suddenly realized he was already entangled, utterly defeated, unable to lift his foot and walk away.
Life is so short, and someone like him, who practically has everything he desires, if he couldn’t find love, then who could? He’s unwilling to not try again.
He was just too proud, and upon sensing the other party didn’t reciprocate his feelings, he lacked even the courage to pursue her.
As long as he didn’t speak out, he could at least maintain some dignity in front of her, uphold a calm gentleman’s friendship, or at least be a close male friend.
Sometimes, Lu Shouyue even admired Wang Bocheng’s shamelessness, who was absolutely without limits on the romantic battlefield, not caring about his pride at all.
Just like Wang Bocheng recently pursuing a small internet celebrity in Yu City, after being rejected several times, he would still persist with thick skin.
Wang Bocheng says that a virtuous woman fears a persistent suitor, and he’s determined to win her over.
Lu Shouyue doesn’t have the courage to relentlessly pursue, his pride doesn’t allow him to stoop so low.
It took several minutes for Lu Shouyue to calm his emotions. After thinking about it for a moment, he decided to take Lin Wanwan back to his split-level flat by the Bund in Lujiazui.
