Chapter 32: Chapter 32 Su Qiaoqiao

The girl is named Su Qiaoqiao, and at this moment, she is in disarray in the wind.

She just joked about spending the night with this person, never expecting those five thugs to be worse than trash, all taken down by one person in an instant.

Taking a turn, Lin Xi pulled the dazed girl and had already arrived on the main street.

A hundred meters to the left, there was a Seven Days Inn.

Su Qiaoqiao burst into tears, and Lin Xi, not wanting to forcibly pull her, said, "Crying won’t help. You must keep your promises to others, otherwise, don’t make them lightly."

"Big brother, wasn’t I forced to?" Su Qiaoqiao stopped crying, and explained with a grievance.

"Besides, who’s to blame you for just standing by?"

"It’s not my fault either, and I’m young. What you’re doing is illegal!"

"Let’s go, stop explaining, we’re getting a room." Lin Xi didn’t care, and insisted.

Su Qiaoqiao slipped her hand out of Lin Xi’s arm and suddenly smiled slyly, "Big brother, I don’t recall ever agreeing to spend time with you."

"Then in that case, I’m busy today, maybe I’ll accompany you another time."

"Bye-bye, big brother." Su Qiaoqiao smiled brightly and turned to leave.

Lin Xi was taken aback, not expecting this girl to get the upper hand, though he didn’t really intend to take the girl away.

Although she just said she was young, Lin Xi’s sharp eyes could tell she was definitely of age, just looking petite.

If they really went, he would feel a bit guilty after all.

But Su Qiaoqiao didn’t get far before she turned back and rushed to Lin Xi’s side, linking her arm with his, leaning against him, and urging, "Big brother, there are still bad people over there looking to catch me, pretend to be my boyfriend and take me away from here."

"I don’t have any money with me, this ring was left by my mom. I’m giving it to you now as a reward."

Su Qiaoqiao took off the gold ring on her index finger. The ring had a blue gemstone, twinkling brilliantly, clearly of great value.

Lin Xi didn’t take the ring, looking ahead fifty meters, where a black Hummer had stopped, and four or five men in black suits and white pants got out.

These people were well-trained, with sharp eyes, far superior to the red-haired and yellow-haired ones before, and now they looked tense.

"Big brother, please help me!" Su Qiaoqiao pleaded.

"Why should I help you?" Lin Xi stood still, this girl had just pulled one over on him.

"Waaaa..., those people are loan sharks, they want to take me back to make me work for them, to serve others. Big brother, I really don’t want to go back, waaaa..." Su Qiaoqiao was very scared and began to sob gently.

This little troublemaker is a headache; Lin Xi hadn’t even been with her for ten minutes, but now two groups had come to capture him; it was ridiculous.

The key issue is, you can’t even tell which of her words are true.

Of course, Lin Xi wasn’t afraid of trouble, but he wouldn’t go looking for it voluntarily, either.

"You borrowed money from them?" Lin Xi asked back.

"Yes, yes." Su Qiaoqiao nodded.

"Why borrow money from them?" Lin Xi asked. Usurious loans not only have terrifyingly high interest rates, but the people behind them almost always have underground connections.

A young girl owing them money is quite puzzling.

"It wasn’t me who borrowed it; it was my dad. Ever since my mom got sick and passed away, he drinks and gambles every day, and doesn’t go to work. Then he borrowed a lot of money, and he often beats and scolds me, saying mom left because of me."

"And today, dad went too far, he wanted to pawn me off to the loan sharks. I managed to escape while they weren’t looking."

"Big brother, I don’t have any other choice; can you take me away from here?" Su Qiaoqiao pleaded pitifully.

"Alright, I’ll take the ring for now." Lin Xi replied.

Su Qiaoqiao inwardly rolled her eyes, doesn’t this guy have any conscience? I’ve told him such a tragic story, yet he still takes my ring.

But actually, this ring wasn’t left by her mother. She didn’t care much for it, so she had no regrets giving it away.

Lin Xi turned, and when he held Su Qiaoqiao’s slender waist, he clearly felt her body tense up, "Act natural, or we’ll blow our cover."

"Okay." Su Qiaoqiao softly replied and said nothing more, following Lin Xi as they walked away from the men in black.

On the other side, in front of the Hummer, one of the men asked, "Brother Leopard, where do you think she ran off to?"

"Stop asking, just hurry and find her. If we can’t find her, how’ll we explain ourselves to the boss?" another short-haired man replied.

"Hey, Brother Leopard, doesn’t that person up ahead look like her?"

"Where?"

"The girl being held by that man in the tattered T-shirt..."

She hardly knows any men, so it’s impossible for her to be willingly embraced by a stranger.

"Let’s catch up and check it out," the short-haired man suggested, clinging to a thin possibility.

"Oh no, they’re gaining on us." Su Qiaoqiao’s face changed drastically; she could clearly feel the group of men rushing towards them.

Lin Xi didn’t look back; he grabbed Su Qiaoqiao’s hand and led her into the nearby alley.

As soon as they reached the alley, Su Qiaoqiao began sprinting frantically forward, with Lin Xi following at a leisurely pace.

Along the way, they passed the place where the five red-haired guys lay.

Seeing Lin Xi and Su Qiaoqiao running towards them, the red-haired five were so scared they huddled and pleaded for mercy, thinking they were about to be beaten again.

Once the two had run off, the five were left in a daze.

But soon after, five more big men came running to the spot and paused to ask, "Did you see a man and a woman run past here?"

The red-haired ones were overjoyed, thinking they’d found allies, and replied happily, "They just ran past here; brothers, you gotta help us teach them a lesson!"

"Yeah, yeah, my boss is right; if that guy hadn’t ambushed us, we would’ve caught the girl already," one of the yellow-haired ones chimed in, but they didn’t notice the short-haired man’s face flash with a touch of ruthlessness.

"Wipe them out," the short-haired man instructed one of his companions and then led the other three in pursuit of Lin Xi and Su Qiaoqiao.

"What?" The red-haired ones were bewildered.

Then they watched in disbelief as the remaining man in black and white pants, ignoring their cries, crippled them one by one with a kick.

"No way out?" Su Qiaoqiao was covered in sweat and breathless when Lin Xi stopped her from crashing into a wall.

This was a dead-end alley; there was no way forward.

"What do we do? I don’t want to be taken back, big brother." Su Qiaoqiao was panicking, too scared to go back and find another way.

After all, they hadn’t put much distance between themselves and the men in black. If they turned back, they’d be caught before finding another way.

PS, it took quite a while to write this Chapter and it still doesn’t feel right; finally got it done. Oh, and it’s Monday today, so I’m asking for recommendation votes, votes, votes, and any tips would be appreciated too, though no pressure.
