After accidentally sending a late-night reading to her ex-boyfriend

Before Jiang Yue could react, those people caught up with her.

A group of reckless rich kids were smashing Mo Chenyuan's windows, their anger and rudeness palpable. Jiang Yue's heart clenched tightly.

Although the Gu family can no longer control everything in the capital, they are all furious about today's incident. It's true that the three of them are at a disadvantage, and Jiang Yue is worried that these spoiled brats might do something outrageous.

Mo Chenyuan opened the car window, his gaze also cold.

Jiang Yue was in the car, so Gu Zeyu naturally saw her.

"Jiang Yue, you get out here right now! Don't hide in the back. No matter who it is today, no one can protect you!"

Just then, Gu Zeyu's voice was extremely fierce. Several men also shouted, "This is one of the most prestigious families in Beijing. If you help this woman, we'll smash your car today!"

Gu Zeyu and Mo Chenyuan had met once, and the two did not get along well.

A rising business tycoon versus the second-generation rich kid of a long-established Beijing family. If they were to truly clash, the outcome would be unpredictable.

Mo Chenyuan didn't speak, but subconsciously grasped Jiang Yue's nervous hand.

Jiang Yue even trembled slightly.

She had never imagined what would happen today. Although she had faced adversity and hardship before, Jiang Yue had always been optimistic. Back in the day, she was the man who could keep Mo Chenyuan as her lover; for him to see her in such a sorry state was truly...

Jiang Yue wasn't one to suffer losses.

Would you rather rot in the mud than refuse your ex's offer of help?

No, she wouldn't do that; she wasn't going to invite trouble for herself.

"Gu Zeyu, you've broken the law!"

Jiang Yue spoke, and everyone burst into laughter.

"I've taught you a lesson today, let's see how you'll ever show your face again!"

Jiang Yue frowned deeply.

"Can you uninstall your novel app? Just because you have some money doesn't mean you can act like a tyrant. Why shouldn't I, the victim, have any shame? Did your parents not give you a brain when they gave birth to you? Kidnapping, threats, attempted coercion, threats to smash cars—Gu Zeyu, you think you're so tough!"

Jiang Yue's tone was also very aggressive.

"The Gu family is a prominent family in the capital; we don't even care about such trivial matters. Jiang Yue, you're too naive. Do you really think you can stand up for yourself?"

Yes, a bunch of rich kids who play by the rules.

But why not? Jiang Yue looked at Mo Chenyuan's lit-up dashcam.

Mo Chenyuan glanced at Jiang Yue and said coldly, "If you have the guts to smash a car, you should have the ability to pay the price!"

Then the car windows were rolled up, completely shutting out everything outside.

And those rich kids who caused trouble by drinking today because of some important event.

Jiang Yue looked at Mo Chenyuan: "Mo Chenyuan, your car isn't cheap!"

"Didn't you see the dashcam too?"

"What if they damage the car and injure someone?"

Jiang Yue was also a little worried.

"My car isn't cheap, it's not made of paper. Besides, responding to the police within ten minutes of calling the police is just adding another charge!"

"Wow, a domineering CEO who'll call the police!"

Jiang Yue sighed, "In novels, aren't they all about domineering CEOs..."

Jiang Yue was still pondering this when the man opposite her darkened his face: "Jiang Yue, you'd better read less novels. Do you think those plots are normal?"

That's so down-to-earth.

However, Jiang Yue left behind evidence, intending to send them in.

After all, this is the real world, and only the law can protect you.

"You know they're not good people, yet you still associate with them..."

If Xiao Jing hadn't been so presumptuous as to insist on helping Jiang Yue and coming to him for help, Mo Chenyuan would have known that the suburban land had already been planned for development in the new city six months ago.

It's not a million, nor ten million, but if the project takes off, it will indeed be an immeasurable sum of money.

Even if you have the money, investing in it can be a highly profitable business.

Thinking about this, Mo Chenyuan realized that things were not so simple.

He had previously investigated when Jiang Yue's family went bankrupt, and then discovered that Lin Weiwei's family, namely Lin Yi's company, was developing strangely. His initial guess was that Lin Yi's father was using Jiang Yue's father's death to conspire with others to seize the family fortune.

That's why Mo Chenyuan was in such a hurry to find Jiang Yue.

That's just right.

Mo Chenyuan looked at Jiang Yue; it seemed Jiang Yue was unaware of this matter. Mo Chenyuan pondered this, his gaze settling on Jiang Yue's face.

Jiang Yue felt a little uncomfortable being stared at.

"I haven't seen my uncle since what happened to my family. I thought there might be some problems with my father's funeral arrangements, so I went to visit him. Who knew I'd run into so many outlaws?"

Jiang Yue was also terrified. The people outside were furious and started smashing the car.

It was very noisy, but Jiang Yue remained calm.

"You're so calm!"

"You said your car isn't made of paper, it should hold out until the police arrive, right? Besides, you and Lin Mu are two men, are you expecting me, a woman, to go into battle alone?"

"You're heartless; there's no point in saving you!"

This is also what Lin Mu wanted to say.

Jiang Yue, though he hadn't had much contact with her, was indeed different from others. Lin Mu didn't know why Mo Chenyuan cared so much about Jiang Yue. He had followed Mo Chenyuan for quite some time, and he thought that a woman like Jiang Yue, who was undeniably beautiful but looked empty inside, had an average education, was a bankrupt heiress, and was superficially vain, wouldn't even get a second glance from his boss.

Little did I expect that saving someone would be so dangerous.

"Boss, if it really comes down to it, I'll take care of it myself!"

Lin Mu was somewhat uneasy.

"No need, there are still two minutes!"

The shouts, curses, and vandalism outside grew louder and louder, but Jiang Yue remained unmoved.

"Mo Chenyuan, I really didn't expect you to come and save me!"

"Cough cough..."

Mo Chenyuan felt somewhat uncomfortable.

Lin Mu paused for a moment, then explained, "Miss Jiang, please don't misunderstand. The boss has an appointment with the hotel owner tonight to discuss business. They're meeting at nine o'clock, and he's almost late."

What a coincidence!

Jiang Yue looked at Mo Chenyuan, seemingly wanting an answer.

If Lin Mu hadn't been so talkative and had admitted that he knew she was in danger and had come specifically for her, it wouldn't have been shameful.

But since Lin Mu spoke up, Mo Chenyuan simply nodded in agreement: "Otherwise, do you think I'd show up just because I planted a tracking device on you and something happens to you? It's just a coincidence. If you hadn't stopped me, I probably wouldn't have bothered!"

"I knew it!" Jiang Yue shrugged. "There aren't that many perfectly timed hero saves the damsel in distress in this world. I was just being presumptuous!"

"you……"

Mo Chenyuan was about to say something when, as luck would have it, the police arrived.

A group of rich kids were arrested, and they were still shouting. The police knocked on the car window and said that Mo Chenyuan had handled the situation very well, avoiding unnecessary casualties.

This was originally just a common case of provoking trouble.

Unexpectedly, Jiang Yue suddenly spoke up: "Officer, things aren't that simple."
