255 The Pebbles

A chill started spreading within Shui Anluo from her heart. How could she have forgotten that Yuan Jiayi was still in the hospital?

Chu Ningyi was Yuan Jiayi's only relative.

"Now, I'm going to pay you back for the slaps you gave me," Shui Anjiao spat maniacally as she raised her hand to strike Shui Anluo.

Shui Anluo did not care whether she got hit or not. All she could feel was a suffocating pain in her heart.

The one person she had placed all her hopes on could not possibly come to save her now.

Swoosh...

Before Shui Anjiao's slap could land on Shui Anluo's face, her hand was hit by a pebble. She cried out and lowered her hand, looking around her. "Who was that?"

However, no one else could be found in this quiet, dilapidated warehouse.

Shui Anluo could not resist looking around either. Her heart held on to this hope, was it him?

However, if it was him, why had he not shown himself?

Shui Anjiao could not find anyone and kicked Shui Anluo again. This time, something hit her thigh.

Shui Anjiao crumpled and gripped her thigh. She then lashed out maniacally toward her surroundings. "Who is it, who on earth are you?"

However, the warehouse was so silent that it was terrifying. There were no signs of anyone else around.

Shui Anjiao endured the pain on her thigh, pursed her lips and took one step back. With a sinister look in her eyes, she spat, "This woman is yours. You may play with her however you wish."

Shui Anjiao was afraid now so she would not risk it.

Shui Anluo struggled and tried to back away as she stared at the five men approaching her. She pursed her lips.

"Stay away," cried Shui Anluo.

Swish, swish, swish...

The sound of pebbles shooting across the air was heard once again. All five men were unexpectedly hit in their thighs and they immediately stumbled to kneel in front of Shui Anluo.

Shui Anluo shivered. She then struggled with all her might to slide away from them.

Shui Anjiao looked around her fearfully. "Who the heck is out there?"

Shui Anluo looked at the five men who were getting onto their feet. She has no inclination to figure out who her savior was. All she wanted was to escape this place as soon as possible.

"All of you, hurry up!" Shui Anjiao shrieked as she pushed one of the men, shoving him on top of Shui Anluo.

"Ah..." Shui Anluo screamed but her body was now firmly trapped below the man's body.

The man held a pebble between his long fingers as he stood high above them on the beams in the building. His ears twitched and he quickly put the pebbles in his hand away as his fiercely evil lips curled into a smirk. He seemed to be taken aback by how quickly that person had arrived but since he did not want anyone to discover his presence, he quickly stepped off the beam and left.

"Let me go, let me go!" Shui Anluo screamed as the man tore her skirt.

Shui Anjiao was holding her phone, madly snapping pictures. After today, Shui Anluo would be thoroughly finished.

Boom...

The metal door swung open and the sound of the rain rang out even louder than ever.

Shui Anjiao immediately turned around. A bright light shot into the building and pierced her eyes but she managed to see the man who was standing at the frontmost of the group. His ice-cold features still tugged at Shui Anjiao's heartstrings.

Shui Anluo struggled to push the man on top of her away with her shoulders. She had looked up when the metal door swung open and when her gaze fell upon the man who had arrived, all of her fears seemed to explode in that instant. It was an explosion that held nothing back. Her restraint, her strength, all of it had disappeared at that very moment.
