Chapter 32 Rescue
"What did you say?" Yan Long frowned. It was quite creepy to suddenly have someone start talking to you late at night. He had just been scolded and was in a bad mood, so he had no interest in talking to strangers.

Yan Long was about to walk around the woman when she grabbed his clothes. He shook off her hand and yelled angrily, "What do you think you're doing! I'm not interested in you!"

Yang Nianqing was speechless and said, "I have even less interest in you!"

"So what do you want?" Why would she stop him in the middle of the night, in this deserted place, if not to chat him up? He had absolutely no interest in women other than Qian Duoduo.

"She's pursuing you, isn't she?"

Yan Long understood what she meant. He chuckled and said self-deprecatingly, "So what? You're Qian Duoduo's friend, aren't you?"

Yang Nianqing nodded, "I guess so."

Yan Long took a deep breath to suppress the lump in his throat, looked at the hair tie on his wrist, and said, "Go back and tell her not to come looking for me anymore. We're not a good match. She deserves better." He walked past Yang Nianqing and continued forward.

Yang Nianqing sighed as she watched his retreating figure and said loudly, "What if you are the one she thinks is the best?"

Yan Long stopped in his tracks, the unbearable words of his beloved's mother swirling in his mind. He clenched his fists and said with suppressed anger, "Her family will not agree. We will not be happy. I am just an orphan, working as a bricklayer on a construction site. How can I be worthy of her?"

"Have you ever thought that it's already very late?"

Yan Long turned around, frowning in confusion, and asked, "So?"

"Have you ever thought about what a girl like her might encounter alone late at night?"

Yan Long's heart skipped a beat, and panic began to spread rapidly. He could hear his heartbeat quickening. Yang Nianqing continued speaking.

"Have you ever thought about it? You can't hear her voice anymore, so where is she?"

His mind went blank, as if a huge rock had hit his heart, and even his limbs started to go numb. Yes, Qian Duoduo had been following him the whole time. When did she stop making a sound?

"I'm not going back..." Before she could finish speaking, a gust of wind blew up beside her, and when Yang Nianqing turned around, she saw that the person had already run far away.

"This time, there won't be another massacre like the Jiangcheng villa tragedy, right?" Yang Nianqing smiled with relief. In the end, she chose to follow her heart, but she felt much better. "That kind of person doesn't deserve your life's commitment. You two should just live well this life."

Yang Nianqing looked up at the sky. The moon was bright today, and tomorrow would be another fine day. "Next up is the Yang family. I'll be getting rid of you all soon."

"Ha, ha..." In the darkness, Yan Long could only hear his own panting. It was almost one in the morning, and there wasn't a soul in the streets and alleys. He could only occasionally hear the barking of pet dogs and stray cats. Yan Long stopped and leaned against the wall to rest. He was almost at Qian Duoduo's house, but he hadn't seen any sign of her along the way. He couldn't help but wonder if he was being too nervous, or if Qian Duoduo had already gone home.

At that moment, a woman's soft, terrified sobbing reached his ears, and Yan Long's pupils contracted sharply as he looked toward the alleyway beside him.

Su Hongbo tightly covered Qian Duoduo's mouth, incessantly sniffing and kissing her neck. He breathlessly said, "Duoduo, I like you so much. Your mother has already agreed to our relationship. Let's get engaged after today, okay? Just give yourself to me."

Qian Duoduo stared wide-eyed in horror, shook her head with difficulty, and large tears kept rolling down her cheeks.

Seeing Qian Duoduo's unwilling expression, Su Hongbo was instantly enraged. He raised his hand and slapped her hard across the face. Qian Duoduo's head snapped to the side, her mouth split open and blood trickling out. He began tearing at her clothes, saying viciously, "You just like that migrant worker, don't you? He's nowhere near as good as me."

"No! Let me go!" Qian Duoduo struggled to pull her clothes back together and pushed Su Hongbo away forcefully.

Su Hongbo slapped her hard across the other cheek, slamming her head against the ground. Qian Duoduo felt dizzy and powerless to resist. She could only cry in despair, murmuring, "Yan Long, save me."

"You still dare to mention him?" Su Hongbo sneered, forcefully tearing off Qian Duoduo's skirt, and began to unbuckle his belt.

"No!" Qian Duoduo struggled to crawl backward, but her feet were still too weak from the blow Su Hongbo had given her, and she couldn't get up. Su Hongbo grabbed her feet and dragged her back. "You still dare to run?" Su Hongbo raised his hand high again.

Suddenly, his hand was grabbed. Su Hongbo looked up and saw the migrant worker, Yan Long, glaring angrily at him. Seeing Yan Long's muscular build and clenched fists, Su Hongbo said fearfully, "What are you doing! Don't do anything rash! Otherwise, my family won't let you off the hook."

Yan Long raised his hand and punched Su Hongbo hard, throwing him to the ground. Seeing Qian Duoduo's disheveled appearance, Yan Long's eyes reddened, and he slapped himself twice. He then took off his clothes and covered Qian Duoduo with them.

Su Hongbo scrambled to his feet, trying to run away, but Yan Long kicked him hard from behind, sending Su Hongbo sprawling face-first into the dirt. Then, Yan Long grabbed Su Hongbo by the back of his collar and lifted him up.

Yan Long, standing at 1.83 meters tall, had spent years working on construction sites, doing manual labor, which had given him a muscular physique. Su Hongbo, on the other hand, was only 1.74 meters tall, disliked exercise, and spent his days in bars, indulging in alcohol, women, and money, leaving him physically exhausted. Yan Long could easily lift Su Hongbo, who was clutching his collar, his feet dangling in the air. His face flushed red, he pleaded desperately, "Please spare me! I haven't done anything yet!"

Hearing this, Yan Long became even angrier, his eyes turning bloodshot and his entire body radiating murderous intent. He clenched his fists and began to punch Su Hongbo furiously. This was no small feat! If he had arrived even a moment later, Su Hongbo would have ruined Qian Duoduo. Thinking of this, Yan Long punched Su Hongbo even harder.

Not long after, Su Hongbo fainted, his body covered in injuries, his nose dented, and blood trickling from the corner of his mouth. Yan Long pushed Su Hongbo aside and walked to Qian Duoduo's side. "Duoduo."

Sensing someone touching Qian Duoduo, she struggled frantically in fear, yelling, "Let go of me! Get away!"

Yan Long's throat tightened, and tears welled up in his bloodshot eyes. He hugged Qian Duoduo tightly, stroking her hair repeatedly to comfort her, "Don't be afraid, it's me, Yan Long. It's all over now, it's all over now."

Qian Duoduo, who had been struggling, paused. Sensing the man's gentleness and lingering fear, she opened her mouth and bit Yan Long's shoulder hard.

Yan Long didn't struggle, letting Qian Duoduo bite him. After a while, Qian Duoduo released him, breaking down in tears, "Why did you take so long to come?"

"I'm sorry, I'm so sorry." Yan Long couldn't help but cry and kept apologizing.

Once Qian Duoduo had calmed down a bit, Yan Long looked dangerously at the unconscious Su Hongbo. He released Qian Duoduo and walked over.

Qian Duoduo was startled and quickly pulled his hand away: "What are you doing?"

"He deserves to die?" Yan Long said bitterly.

He wanted to kill Su Hongbo, and Qian Duoduo had no doubt about it. But she couldn't let Yan Long sacrifice himself for that scumbag. She endured the pain, got up, and hugged Yan Long. "Kill him, and you'll be ruined! Let's call the police and let him get the punishment he deserves."

Seeing Qian Duoduo's worried look, Yan Long finally nodded, called the police and an ambulance.

That night, the street was destined to be anything but quiet. Neighbors whispered among themselves as police cars and ambulances arrived, and a man covered in injuries was carried out. The Qian family's daughter was carried out by a burly man.

Zhang Fen was startled when she saw Qian Duoduo and quickly went to greet her, "Duoduo."

Hearing her mother's voice, Qian Duoduo glanced at her, then turned her head away. She didn't know how to face her mother; if it weren't for her mother, none of this might have happened. She clutched Yan Long's shirt and urged, "Let's go quickly."

Yan Long bypassed Zhang Fen, picked up Qian Duoduo, and walked towards the police car. Qian Duoduo didn't want to ride in the same ambulance as Su Hongbo, so the police car took them to the hospital for examination and treatment.

Zhang Fen staggered, her heart filled with panic. Seeing her daughter's injuries and her daughter ignoring her, she could easily imagine what her daughter had suffered. Zhang Fen collapsed to the ground, thinking of Yang Nianqing. Her daughter no longer recognized her; her retribution had truly come. She couldn't help but cry out in remorse.

Although the neighbors usually disliked her sharp tongue, they all gathered around her to comfort her.

After calming herself down, Zhang Fen thanked everyone and then rushed home to get her sleeping husband so they could go to the hospital.
