Let’s Divorce! - Chapter 33

Chapter 33 Almost Killed

“Forget it, let’s not talk about this first. We haven’t seen each other for so many years. Let’s have a few drinks first.” Sun Lian immediately put on a smile when he saw Xia Ran’s expression.

With that, a glass of wine was handed to Xia Ran.

Xia Ran looked at the glass of blue liquid. She didn’t want to drink it. Firstly, she didn’t think it was safe. Secondly, she was pregnant and couldn’t drink alcohol.

“I don’t drink. I’m allergic to alcohol.” Xia Ran found an excuse to refuse.

Sun Lian and his friends looked at each other and took out another candy. “Then have a candy.”

Xia Ran looked at the candy. It was wrapped without any patterns or words. It looked like handmade candy he had made himself.

“I’ve been teething recently, so I won’t eat candy.” Xia Ran waved her hand and refused.

The consecutive rejections made Sun Lian’s expression change. He suddenly grabbed Xia Ran. “We haven’t seen each other for so long. Are you going to keep rejecting me?”

With that, he gave the others a look and prepared to force himself on her.

Xia Ran sensed danger and reacted quickly. She immediately took out the pepper spray and sprayed it directly into Sun Lian’s eyes. The others who came over were also sprayed in the face.

“Ah!!” Sun Lian and the others roared from the pepper spray. For a moment, they couldn’t open their eyes.

Xia Ran took the opportunity to push him away and ran out as fast as she could.

She would be safe outside. Xia Ran ran out in one go.

Sun Lian and the others chased after her, but when they caught up to her, Xia Ran had already gotten into a taxi and left.

“F*ck! She escaped!” Sun Lian was furious. Originally, as long as he slept with Xia Ran and took a few photos, he would receive a huge reward. In the end, he failed.

Sun Lian cursed by the roadside while Xia Ran patted her chest in the taxi in shock.

Fortunately, she’d taken extra care to prepare the pepper spray. Otherwise, she didn’t know what would have happened tonight.

But she had no idea why Sun Lian would still come after her after all these years.

And who gave her number to Sun Lian?

With doubts and fear, Xia Ran returned home.

When she saw Xia Ran return, surprise flashed across Zhu Qian’s face, as if she didn’t expect her to return.

Xia Ran saw her reaction and wondered if Zhu Qian really was blind. She didn’t say anything when she came back, so why would Zhu Qian have such an expression if she couldn’t see who it was?

Suddenly, an idea flashed through Xia Ran’s mind. If what happened tonight was something that Zhu Qian had arranged, she would definitely be surprised to see her return.

Because if the plan went smoothly, Xia Ran should be trapped in the bar and become Sun Lian’s prey.

“Miss Xia is back. We can eat soon,” Auntie He quickly greeted when she saw Xia Ran return.

However, Xia Ran had no appetite to eat now. The doubts in her mind grew bigger and bigger. After looking at Zhu Qian suspiciously, she said to Auntie He, “Auntie He, I’m not hungry. I want to go to bed first.”

Then she ran upstairs.

Zhu Qian looked at Xia Ran’s back as she went upstairs and gritted her teeth in anger. The private detective had told her the plan for today and she was waiting for the results expectantly. She didn’t expect Xia Ran to come back so quickly.

Moreover, Xia Ran’s clothes were very neat and there were no signs of her being raped.

Those useless people had failed!

When Xia Ran reached the bedroom upstairs, she immediately locked the door. She glanced at the time. It was already a little late. Why wasn’t Mu Hua back yet?

All she wanted now was to snuggle in her Mu Hua’s arms. Only then would she feel safe.

“Mu Hua, are you still at work?” Xia Ran couldn’t help but call Mu Hua.

“I just finished a meeting. Why?” Mu Hua was also preparing to go home. He didn’t expect to receive a call from Xia Ran. He could tell that Xia Ran sounded a little afraid.

Xia Ran wrapped herself in the blanket and cried, “Mu Hua, I was almost harmed tonight. Fortunately, I brought the pepper spray and escaped. I’m so scared now…”

Mu Hua’s expression darkened when he heard this. “Who tried to harm you?”

“He’s a friend of mine who grew up with me in the orphanage. His name is Sun Lian, but I haven’t been in contact with him for many years. He suddenly found me and confessed to me. When I turned him down, he wanted to force himself on me. Boohoo…” Xia Ran still had lingering fear when she thought of that scene.

Which bastard dared to hurt Xia Ran?

Mu Hua’s expression was already very cold. He knew that he had to appease Xia Ran now. “Don’t be afraid. I’ll be right back.”

“Okay, Mu Hua, come back quickly,” Xia Ran said pitifully.
