Zhan Xiaoting reached out and was about to pull down the towel when…
His phone suddenly rang.
He wanted to hang up immediately, but when he saw the caller ID, he changed his mind.
“Young Master Zhan, save me…”
Tang Xinru cried on the other end of the phone.
“What’s wrong?” Zhan Xiaoting asked, frowning.
“Someone wants to kill me. Hurry up and save me. I beg you…”
Realizing that Tang Xinru was in danger, Zhan Xiaoting’s heart tightened, “Where are you?”
“Room 302 of Charm Bar. I’m hiding in the toilet now. I can’t hold on much longer.”
“Alright, I understand…”
“Stupid woman, if you don’t come out, you’re dead…”
Immediately after, there was a loud banging on the door.
“Ah…” Tang Xinru screamed in fear.
Zhan Xiaoting originally planned to end the matter quickly, but when he heard Tang Xinru’s terrified scream, he didn’t dare to delay any longer.
“I’ll let you off today!!!”
As he spoke, he let go of Tang Weiwei and immediately turned to leave the ward, rushing to Charm Bar.
He said that he would be responsible for Tang Xinru.
For the rest of his life, he would protect her and not let anyone hurt her!
No matter how big the matter was, it was not as important as her safety.
As for whether the woman in the ward was Tang Weiwei, he only needed to get someone to investigate.
After Zhan Xiaoting left, the men he called to open the door also left with him.
Only Tang Weiwei and An’an were left in the ward.
Tang Weiwei’s legs went weak and she slumped to the ground.
Almost…
She was so close to being exposed in front of Zhan Xiaoting.
…
On Zhan Xiaoting’s side.
He rushed to Charm Bar as fast as he could and found Tang Xinru, who was beaten black and blue and kneeling on the ground to atone for her sins.
“Young Master Zhan, save me…”
Seeing Zhan Xiaoting coming over, Tang Xinru’s eyes lit up as if she had seen a life-saving straw. She stood up and wanted to pounce on him to ask for comfort.
“Did I say you could get up?” The woman sitting at the head of the table kicked Tang Xinru’s leg.
“Ah …” Tang xinru kneeled on the ground again in pain.
“Ah…” Tang Xinru knelt on the ground again in pain.
Zhan Xiaoting immediately recognized that the woman in front of him was the heir of one of the four great families, An Qian.
“Miss An, what do you mean?” Zhan Xiaoting asked with a sullen expression.
“I’m teaching the mistress who seduced my husband a lesson. Master Zhan, do you have a problem with that?” An Qian asked with a strong aura.
“No, I didn’t seduce her husband…” Tang Xinru was afraid that Zhan Xiaoting would misunderstand, so she immediately shook her head and explained in tears, “All of this was planned by Tang Weiwei. She deliberately did it to harm me.”
That b*tch, Tang Weiwei, forced her to drink all the wine in question and left. Not long after, CEO Liu came over.
When he saw Tang Weiwei leave, he decided to change his target to Tang Xinru, and actually started to lust after her.
Just as he was doing something to her, a police officer suddenly came to investigate. He said that he had received a report that there was a prostitute here and brought them to the police station.
It was not easy for her to be bailed out the next day. However, as soon as she walked out of the police station, she was kidnapped by CEO Liu’s wife to Charm Bar. Not only was she taught a lesson, but An Qian even threatened to ruin her face.
The Tang family didn’t dare to offend the An family, so they couldn’t save her.
Hence, she could not care less about her shame and could only call Zhan Xiaoting for help.
Zhan Xiaoting walked over and gently pulled Tang Xinru up.
Then, he said domineeringly, ” she’s one of my people. Who dares to touch her? ”
An Qian didn’t expect Zhan Xiaoting to be so protective of Tang Xinru, and a trace of fear flashed across her face.
Although she was the heir of the An family, she did not dare to offend Zhan Xiaoting too much. After all, even her father had to give him some face.
Anyway, she had already taught her a lesson and had already vented her anger.
Let’s just do Zhan Xiaoting a favor!
“Of course I have to give Young Master Zhan face. I’ll return her to you, but…” An Qian stood up and smiled. “Young Master Zhan, you owe me a favor this time.”
After she finished speaking, she left with a smile.
When she passed by Tang Xinru, she gave her a warning look.
“If I see you seducing my husband again, I’ll definitely disfigure your pretty little face.”
Tang Xinru was so frightened that she immediately hid behind Zhan Xiaoting.
“It’s alright now…” Zhan Xiaoting gently comforted her.
Just as Tang Xinru was about to say something, her vision turned black and she fainted.
She was unconscious for a day and a night. When she opened her eyes again, she saw Zhan Xiaoting standing by her side, dealing with work. There was a faint greenish-black color under his eyes.
Tang Xinru said in disbelief, “Master Zhan, have you been watching over me?”
“Yes!” Zhan Xiaoting took off his glasses and said, “I was worried that you wouldn’t wake up!”
Tang Xinru’s heart was filled with sweetness.
Such an outstanding man should belong to her.
She had to snatch him away from Tang Weiwei, and this was a good opportunity.
Hence, she tried her best to squeeze out a few tears and said pitifully, “I’m sorry. I shouldn’t have called you and implicated you. I’ve already become a joke. I won’t be able to face anyone in the future.”
Zhan Xiaoting took out a handkerchief from his pocket and handed it to her. He asked, “What exactly happened?”
“Tang Weiwei framed me…”
Tang Xinru said with a trace of viciousness in her eyes.
“Back then, her father chased her out of the house. All these years, her relationship with the family has been very tense. I wanted to ease it, so I asked her out to talk. I didn’t expect her to not appreciate it. Not only that, but she also put something unclean in the wine I drank. I was almost insulted. I was clearly a victim, but I was still treated as a mistress…”
With that, she burst into tears again.
When Zhan Xiaoting heard this, a trace of malice flashed across his eyes.
The person in front of him was the woman he had been looking for five years. He had once sworn in his heart that he would protect her with his life.
But now, she had been schemed against and suffered so much
“If what you said is true, I will make the person who hurt you pay the price!” Zhan Xiaoting promised her in a gentle and cruel tone.
“Thank you…” Tang Xinru was touched and threw herself into Zhan Xiaoting’s arms, “Master Zhan, you’re so good to me!”
His body stiffened.
The moment Tang Xinru leaned over, he subconsciously pushed her away.
Tang Xinru looked at him with an aggrieved expression, “Master Zhan, do you dislike me because I was almost bullied?”
“No…” Zhan Xiaoting rubbed his temples and explained gently, “The doctor said that you need to rest well.”
Seeing that he was concerned about her, she immediately revealed a shy smile and quickly lay down.
Zhan Xiaoting was not in the mood to work at all. He stared blankly at the hand that had just pushed Tang Xinru away.
A strange feeling arose in his heart.
He really… hated Tang Xinru’s touch…
…
On Tang Weiwei’s side.
She returned to the manor in fear. She thought that she would be interrogated by Zhan Xiaoting.
Unexpectedly, he was not at home.
Tang Weiwei heaved a sigh of relief and even hoped that he would never come back.
Unfortunately, her wish was destined to not come true.
Zhan Xiaoting still went home.
Tang Weiwei had been on duty for the entire day and was just about to take a good rest when…
Zhan Xiaoting called out to her coldly, “Tang Weiwei, stop right there!”
Tang Weiwei knew that what should come would always come.
She turned around stiffly and looked at Zhan Xiaoting, pretending that nothing had happened.
“Master Zhan, what’s the matter?”
“Follow me to a place!” Zhan Xiaoting was as cold as an iceberg.
Tang Weiwei raised her eyebrows in surprise.
He actually didn’t call her to question her about what happened at the hospital that day.
However, it was better for him not to ask.
Puzzled, she asked, “Where are we going?”
“You’ll know when you get there.” Zhan Xiaoting did not want to talk so much nonsense. He pulled her arm domineeringly and stuffed her into the car.
Along the way, Tang Weiwei was a little uneasy. She wondered where Zhan Xiaoting was taking her.
Fortunately, the car soon stopped.
“Get out of the car!” Zhan Xiaoting reminded.
Tang Weiwei stuck her head out and saw that he had actually brought her to the…
Hospital?
Fortunately, it was not the same hospital An’an was staying in.
But why did Zhan Xiaoting bring her to a hospital?
