Kyoto Night Kiss

Qu Yun glanced at her mother, who had been startled awake in her sleep, gently closed the door, and went out with a wood-chopping knife.

Outside the door, a man with straw-like hair leaned against a modified, dilapidated electric scooter with a large horn welded to the handlebars.

He was overweight, with several noticeable pimples on either side of his nose. His gaze was fixed on Qu Yun like chewed gum. "Oh, it really is you back. Long time no see. Do you still remember your brother?"

Wang Bing deliberately emphasized the word "brother," his eyes brazenly scanning Qu Yun up and down. "Back then you were just a little girl, but now you've grown into a beautiful young woman."

"To be honest, I only glanced at you a couple of times when I was behind you, and you immediately ran to your father to complain. Your father actually believed me and threatened to punish me."

Qu Yun thought of this person.

A disgusting person who always followed her on her way home from school, trying to grope her.

As if suddenly remembering something, Wang Bing took two steps forward, a malicious smile on his face: "Now that your father is dead, no one is protecting you."

"How about we have some fun with your brother? After that, your brother will..."

Before the man could finish speaking, Qu Yun raised the wood-chopping knife in her hand and yelled, "Get lost!"

"Otherwise, I'll call the police."

Wang Bing was startled and backed away with his hands raised, but he still kept his glib tongue and said, "Just kidding, don't you know I've liked you since I was a kid?"

Qu Yun had already taken out her phone, ready to call the police.

Seeing this, Wang Bing had no choice but to push his electric scooter away.

As Qu Yun turned to go inside and lock the door, he glanced at the car parked in the yard. The tires were still quite inflated...

As evening approached, Aunt Qiuhong brought in the dishes, and the square wooden table was quickly filled with steaming hot home-style dishes.

All of these are songs I loved as a child.

When Aunt Qiuhong heard about the uninvited guest who had suddenly arrived that afternoon, her eyes immediately filled with disgust. "You mean Wang Bing? He's a complete beast."

"A few years ago, he raped a girl from the next village. He claimed he was engaged and that's why he didn't go to jail, but the matter was never resolved..."

When Qu Yun heard two certain words, her shoulders instinctively stiffened.

Fortunately, Aunt Qiuhong said that Wang Bing had not harassed her before.

During the meal, Aunt Qiuhong advised, "Yunyun, why don't you stay at home for the night before you leave? You drove all night yesterday and didn't sleep well. The streetlights in the countryside are especially dim, and the roads are difficult to drive on."

Qu Yun pushed the peeled shrimp in the bowl in front of her mother. Hearing this, she smiled and shook her head: "I'm not staying here. I took a nap this afternoon and I'm not sleepy."

"Moreover, my arrival was so sudden that I didn't even have time to ask for leave from work."

Although she was also reluctant to leave her mother and didn't want to return to the hotel where everyone was gossiping...

I need to finish things up quickly so I can come back and spend more time with my elderly parents.

Aunt Qiuhong didn't insist too much. She packed a lot of refreshing side dishes for Qu Yun to take to the car and told her to take good care of herself.

After Qu Yun's reluctant farewell, it was getting dark.

Before she was about to leave, she received a video call from Cheng Chongchong.

The little one blinked and asked, "Is it coming back, Yun?"

He had barely finished speaking when he was tapped on the head.

Cheng Tongzhou's stern voice rang out from the side: "Cheng Chong, you have no manners again."

"Dad, what if you beat me so badly I become stupid!"

There's no room for further stupidity.

Listening to the conversation between the father and son, Qu Yun couldn't help but laugh. When she met Cheng Chongchong's aggrieved gaze, she immediately comforted him, "You're back, you're back. Mom brought you some delicious side dishes made by an auntie."

"That's great!" Cheng Chongchong immediately beamed with joy. After glancing at her father who had been peeking at her from the side, she left with the words, "My dad misses you," and hurriedly ran away.

Cheng Tongzhou had no choice but to pick up his phone helplessly. "That brat really deserves a beating."

He still suggested picking up Qu Yun, worried that she would be too tired from driving.

Qu Yun shook her head. "It's okay, I can drive here and I can drive back."

She's not someone who'll never be a good driver.

My phone hasn't been charged for a day and a night, and now it only has 1% battery left.

There was no charger in the car, so after Qu Yun ended the video call, she started navigation on the car's infotainment screen.

As darkness fell completely, the few streetlights along the country roads were dim and faint, plunging large areas into deep black.

The road was uneven, with gravel and potholes everywhere. Qu Yun gripped the steering wheel and drove steadily past the village entrance.

As she drove into the countryside, several flashes of white headlights suddenly appeared in her rearview mirror.

Qu Yun glanced out of the corner of her eye and noticed three electric scooters following behind at a leisurely pace. Her heart tightened, and she instantly stepped on the gas pedal, intending to speed up and shake off the scooters.

Seeing the car accelerate, a scooter behind immediately said, "Brother soldier, even if we two-wheelers are running until we're smoking, we still can't catch up with four-wheelers."

Wang Bing smiled confidently and replied, "Don't worry, if I say I'll make you have a good time tonight, you definitely will."

"But that woman probably isn't a virgin anymore, right? Her husband even came to carry her coffin before..."

"She's not a virgin, but her face and body are hot. Stop talking nonsense and drive faster, we'll be on that deserted road soon."

Qu Yun looked at the increasingly desolate road ahead, reached out and swiped the car's infotainment screen. The navigation showed that this was the only way out. No matter how uncomfortable she felt, she could only continue to speed up and drive forward.

Suddenly, the car ran over a large pothole, the body lurched violently, the right rear tire went completely flat, and the metal rim screeched against the ground.

The vehicle slid out of control and crashed heavily onto the curb, eventually stalling and coming to a stop.

Qu Yun hurriedly pulled the handbrake, unbuckled her seatbelt, and wanted to get out of the car to check.

However, before she could even open the car door, three electric scooters had already surrounded her, and three big men jumped off the scooters with grins on their faces, ready to come over.

Qu Yun locked the car doors, huddled in the corner with her back against the seat, and picked up her phone to call the police.

The call had barely been made when the last bar of battery was drained, the phone screen went dark, and it became a useless brick.

"Knock knock knock!"

The car window was violently pounded on, and a man shouted, "Open the door! Open the car door right now!"

Before he could finish speaking, the door handles on both sides were pulled forcefully one after another, with clanging and banging sounds echoing.

Qu Yun instinctively hugged her head.

She needs to stay calm right now.

It's okay, she learned Muay Thai, right? She has self-defense skills, she'll be fine...

The people outside seemed to have stopped trying to open the car door.

Qu Yun looked up and was caught off guard to see Wang Bing's face magnified against the car window. Wang Bing also saw her at the same time and licked his lips lewdly.

Qu Yun thought of the rape he had committed and instinctively clutched her head, the nightmare scenes from the past flashing through her mind.

She was breathing rapidly and her whole body was cold and trembling.

No... she couldn't associate Wang Bing with the foreigner who tried to rape her in Vancouver.

Her body was becoming increasingly unresponsive...

"Damn it, this bitch is so disobedient!" Wang Bing spat.

He had lost all patience. He bent down, picked up a large rock from the roadside, and then smashed it hard against the car window.

With a muffled thud, the car body trembled slightly, and fine cracks immediately appeared on the glass surface.

Qu Yun suppressed her fear and pressed herself tightly against the car door and seat, pushing against it with all her might.

But stones kept falling one after another, each impact shaking the car body. The thin windows couldn't withstand the repeated pounding.

With a cracking sound, the driver's side window shattered completely, shards of glass falling to the ground.

Wang Bing's rough hands reached in and fumbled for the car door handle. "What are you hiding for? Come out and keep your brothers company, and you'll get your share of the benefits."

Qu Yun suppressed the urge to vomit and kept shrinking back. Her limbs were weak, and she was almost exhausted from even holding onto the car door.

"I found it!" Wang Bing finally found the handle and was about to open the car door.

At the critical moment, blinding headlights shone from the end of the road, piercing the thick darkness and illuminating the three people surrounding the car, leaving them nowhere to hide.

The noise stopped abruptly at that moment.

Even Wang Bing withdrew his hand from the car door handle, instinctively shielding his eyes from the sudden bright light. For some reason, a chill rose in his heart, and he stood frozen in place, afraid to move.

The black sedan in the distance braked abruptly to a stop several meters away, its deep engine roaring exceptionally clearly in the quiet night.

Immediately afterwards, the car door was pushed open, and a tall, slender figure stepped out from the halo of light.

The man, dressed in a dark overcoat, with most of his figure hidden in the interplay of light and shadow, walked steadily and unhurriedly, each step carrying a murderous intent.
