The man slowly retreated to the entrance of the nightclub with Zhao Yilin in tow.

On the bald man's side, he was the only one left, along with his two cowardly subordinates that didn't dare to approach him.

Zhao Yilin slowly relaxed. Just as she was about to turn around and rush out, the bespectacled man grabbed her by the collar and dragged her back. "Watch out!"

Three burly men with guns appeared at the door. Who would have thought that the bald man had such a strong background that he would be caught by the nightclub security.

At this point, the bald man swung his sword at Zhao Yilin.

The door was small, with a wall on one side and the man with the eyes on the other. Zhao Yilin had to lean backwards. However, the security guards also rushed into the room. They attacked from the front and back, and Zhao Yilin felt like she was about to be wrapped up into dumplings.

The bespectacled man grabbed the bald man's wrist with one hand and pushed Zhao Yilin against the wall with the other. He then pulled her past the bald man. However, because of his slow movements, the blade had made a large cut on his chest.

"Let's go!" The bespectacled man kicked over two of his subordinates and dragged Zhao Yilin to the kitchen on the second floor. The bald man and the others chased after them.

At this moment, sirens sounded outside.

The bald man wanted to run away, but he couldn't bear to let go of the two. His eyes reddened as he threw the blade in his hand.

The bespectacled man kicked his leg and stabbed the knife into the side of the bald man's kitchen board.

The sound of police rushing into the shop came from downstairs. The bald man didn't dare to chase them anymore and just watched them jump out of the kitchen window.

Holding hands, they ran in the dark until they reached the side of the road and got into the taxi. Only then did their beating hearts calm down.

The driver looked in the rearview mirror and saw the two of them holding hands in panic. He whispered, "Where are we going?"

Zhao Yilin snapped out of her daze and saw the man's shirt was covered in blood. She shouted, "Go to the hospital!"

"I'm fine. I don't need to go to the hospital." The bespectacled man opened up the cut on his shirt and said in a relaxed manner, "The wound is very shallow. You don't even need to stitch it."

"You still need a tetanus shot, right?" Zhao Yilin looked over and saw a red gash on her white skin. Red flesh could be seen from the deepest part of her skin, and blood was seeping out from the shallowest part of her skin.

She was watching so intently that her face was almost touching her chest. The man's face reddened. He straightened his body and said, "Uh, then I'll give it a shot."

Zhao Yilin looked up and saw the man staring straight ahead. She realized she was too close to him, and they were still holding hands.

She quickly let go and said to the driver, "Go to the nearest hospital."

"Alright."

As the car sped up, Zhao Yilin put her hands on her thighs. She felt grateful, guilty and nervous. She had seen a lot of news about brave men risking their lives to save people, but she was still the one who was saved.

She was about to say something when the bespectacled man spoke first. "Are you hurt?"

Zhao Yilin felt even more ashamed. She touched her arms and legs and said, "I'm fine. Look, my whole body is fine."

"You seem to have sprained your foot."

Hearing this, she felt a little pain in her right ankle, "It's fine, just recuperate for a few days. What about you? The wound must be very painful, right? "

The bespectacled man smiled. The sun shone brightly and the flowers bloomed in the spring. "These injuries are nothing. Don't worry."

Zhao Yilin suddenly stopped looking at him and turned to look out of the window. "Thank you. Thank you so much." I don't even know how to express my feelings. "

"I understand your feelings."

"If it wasn't for you, I don't even know what would have happened. I wouldn't even dare to think about it." As Zhao Yilin finished speaking, she noticed that the man in glasses was smiling even more. He gave off a feeling of incomparable warmth.

The bespectacled man said, "No, you are also very strong and very brave. If it wasn't for those few cheating fellows, they wouldn't have been able to catch you. "

Zhao Yilin smiled as she suddenly remembered something important. "Oh right, your kung fu is amazing!" Just like a martial arts superstar! "

The bespectacled man said, "I have studied Taekwondo and also went to Shaolin Temple to learn kung fu."

Zhao Yilin was envious. "If any woman can marry you, then she's not afraid of being bullied. She'll be very happy." The moment she said this, she realized that she had overstepped herself and lowered her head in embarrassment.

The bespectacled man smiled and did not speak, as if he did not care.

Zhao Yilin didn't understand what was going on with her. Normally, she was calm, but today, she was nervous and excited in front of this man. She acted like she was familiar with him and kept trying to get close to him.

To avoid embarrassment, Zhao Yilin decided to shut up.

Arriving at the hospital, she busied herself with registration, paid money, and then watched as the bespectacled man injected and stitched. During the process, she only said a few simple words.

When the two of them walked out of the hospital and were about to leave, the glasses man took out his phone with a smile and asked, "Can you add me on WeChat?"

"Ah, alright." Zhao Yilin took out her cell phone from her backpack and turned it on. She found more than ten missed calls and several unread messages.

She said apologetically, "Wait a moment, my friend seems to have something urgent for me."

"Alright."

Zhao Yilin walked a few steps away. The calls were from Chen Huan and Fang Xinying. She opened WeChat and put her phone to her ear to listen.

The bespectacled man stood quietly to one side, his eyes looking at the horizon. The east was still dark, but he could tell from the time that daybreak was not far away.

He inadvertently turned his head and saw that she, who was listening to a voice message, was actually crying.

She covered her mouth with all her strength and a tear fell from the corner of her eye. Her brows were furrowed and relaxed, giving off the impression that she was struggling and that her emotions were about to collapse.

After she put down the phone, the glasses man walked over and asked softly, "Are you alright?"

Zhao Yilin took a deep breath and turned around with a bright smile on her face, like a man walking in the dark and seeing the morning sun.

"Benefactor."

"…" The bespectacled man acknowledged the weird yet slightly cute name.

Zhao Yilin was still tearing up, but it was only tears of happiness. "So, no matter how bad your life is, something good will happen, right?"

The bespectacled man was stunned for a moment. A lamp suddenly lit up in his dark heart.

Zhao Yilin was so excited that she couldn't sleep at all after returning home. She laid down on her bed and took out her cell phone to play the voice message again.

"Linlin, did you drop your phone in the bathroom?" Why didn't you pick up the phone! I just got the inside news that the HR department will call you tomorrow and ask you to act as the female lead for the new film! The news exploded, right? It should be enough to knock you out, right? You must turn it on for me tomorrow! "If you don't start the computer, I'll go to your house and destroy all the good stuff!"

"Oh yeah, hurry up and reply when you see the message."

Zhao Yilin held his phone and giggled. Seventeen looked at her from the side.

She sat up, shaking Seventeen's claws and laughed: "Seventeen, my luck has finally changed! Going to a nightclub and meeting up with Scoundrel was rescued by a handsome guy. He was obviously participating in the second female lead's audition, but he had actually become the female lead! "Haha!" She smiled, feeling that she had forgotten something, something very important but not important.

However, even after thinking for a long time, he was still unable to recall anything.

The next day, Zhao Yilin received a call from the HR department of Horien Film and Television, hoping that she could renew the contract and become the female lead of "In order to make love come true".

Of course, Zhao Yilin was happy to agree. They made a date for the signing of the contract.

After hanging up, she happily pulled open the curtains to her bedroom. The fatigue and sleepiness she accumulated last night instantly disappeared. She decided to do a beauty spa and a more stylish haircut before going shopping for some new clothes.

She busied herself for a long time, then went to look at her phone. When she saw WeChat, she noticed that the glasses man added her as a friend yesterday, but she never accepted it.

Ah!" Damn it, I deserve to die. I can even do such an ungrateful thing! " Zhao Yilin scolded herself as she added the note. She realized that she had not asked for his name yet.

"… …." "The heavens will punish …"

She thought for a moment and sent a message over.

"Benefactor, have you rested?" Is the wound still painful? "

After a few seconds, the bespectacled man replied —

"Very well, don't worry. My name is Zhang Yanzhen, what about you? "

Zhao Yilin's face turned red and she quickly sent it over.

"My name is Zhao Yilin, my friends all call me Linlin."

"Alright."

Zhao Yilin quickly changed his name from Benefactor's to hers and sent another message.

"When are you free? I'll treat you to a meal. "

As Zhao Yilin sent the message, she walked out of the apartment building with her head lowered. When the auntie who was selling vegetables saw her, she smiled and said, "Linlin, you're smiling so happily. You're not talking about a boyfriend, are you?"

Zhao Yilin turned around with a smile. "More or less, but more important than a boyfriend!"

Zhao Yilin hurried to the company to sign the contract, then went to dinner with Zhang Youzhen.

In the office, sitting across from her was the HR manager, director Wu Tai and producer Shang Jianghong.

The producer gave a detailed description of Zhao Yilin's future training as well as the salary and rewards. After several important details were discussed, the HR manager said, "Yilin, feel free to ask any questions you need."

Zhao Yilin carefully looked at the contract, the secret agreement, and the script. "Haven't the male lead been decided?"

Wu Tai remained silent for a moment before replying, "It was decided. But from the point of view of publicity, we still have to keep it a secret. You'll know who it is on the day it starts. "

Zhao Yilin nodded with a smile, then signed one contract after another. She was really looking forward to see who this mysterious male lead was, but from Wu Tai's expression, she seemed to be a rather famous but also very unexpected actor.
