Chapter 48: Unexpected Encounter on the Road

。He seemed to have not weighed the pros and cons before blurting it out. 。Xiao Jingyu said, "Why What if, in the future, everyone in the class is afraid of Yao Bei Xiang's power and isolates you, targ...Xiao Zheng also took a sip of the hangover water on the table and said, "Whether it will be a loss, I don't know either." 。But, all I know is that to change your life, you have to take risks. 。"This, Xiao Zheng was saying to Jian Xiushui, but also to himself." 。Jian Xiushui suddenly placed one hand on Xiao Zheng's hand. 。Jianxiu Shui, though in her thirties, still had skin that was delicate and soft. It seemed as if this hand wasn't resting on Xiao Zheng's hand, but rather his heart. 。His body felt strangely restless. 。However, Xiao Zheng was still sober. He restrained his physical sensations and looked at Jian Xiushui in confusion. 。

Jianxiu Shui immediately withdrew her hand and said, "If I had a brother like you..." 。"Jian Xiushui spoke with some emotion." 。Xiao Zheng was also a man of passion. Hearing Jian Xiushui say this, he almost said, "Then I'll be your brother." 。At this moment, Li Haiyan's voice suddenly rang out: "Everyone wants to have a brother like our master..." Li Haiyan strained herself to sit up, the alcohol still heavy in her. 。Ke Lihaiyan finally woke up, otherwise she wouldn't know what time it would be before she could go home. 。Jianxiu Shui and Xiao Zheng's conversation was abruptly interrupted. 。Xiao Zheng said, “Haiyan, it’s getting late. I’ll send you home.” 。 。Let's send Haiyan together, otherwise, it would be awkward for you, a grown man, to send a drunk woman back home. Her family might have something to say about it. 。"Xiao Zheng and Li Haiyan both thought it made sense. Li Haiyan said, "Then thank you, Xiu Shui jie." 。"What are you being polite for" Jian Xiu Shui said. The three then left the noodle shop, Jian Xiu Shui locked the door, and walked together toward Li Haiyan's house. 。The town's streets, with their dim lights, were eerily deserted. 。Xiao Zheng and Jian Xiushui sent Li Haiyan home. Li Haiyan's parents saw that their daughter was clearly drunk, and they were a little worried. 。"How did you drink so much" Seeing that Li Haiyan was brought back by Xiao Zheng and Jian Xiushui, the two elders were slightly relieved. 。They worry that Li Haiyan will be taken advantage of. 。Xiao Zheng said to Li Haiyan, "Get some rest early." 。"Li Haiyan also said, "Master, Xiushui jie, you guys should hurry back too." 。Our town is not very safe either. 。"Jianxiu Shui Dao: 'Well, rest assured, we will return home safely.'" 。We're leaving, you can close the door. 。Then the two of them walked in another direction, reaching a crossroads. The two went in different directions. Xiao Zheng thought of Li Haiyan's words, "Our town is not very safe," so he said, “Jian Jie, I’ll send you first and then go back.” 。"No, no, I'll go back by myself," 。I've always lived in this town, I know it like the back of my hand. You should get some rest too. 。"Let me send you off," Xiao Zheng said. 。It's okay for me, a man, to get home a little later. 。"

Thank you for your kindness. " 。Jian Xiu Shui stopped under a rusty streetlight and said, "It's not pretty." 。“What’s not good-looking” Xiao Zheng asked strangely. Jianxiu said, “I'm a widow, you're a town official, I don't want to implicate you.” 。The people in our town, they love to gossip. Seeing you and me together, they might say that the local official isn't serious or that I'm trying to flirt with you. 。" Xiao Zheng didn't think about it that way. He just felt that sending someone home was as simple as sending someone home. " 。But Jian Xiushui's point is not without merit. 。 。If Xiao Zheng insists on giving it, he'll only make himself look suspicious. 。Xiao Zheng then said, "Jian Jie, please be careful on your way." 。If something happens, give me a call. You have my phone number. 。"OK, I understand." 。Then I'll be going, you should head back soon too. 。Jianxiu Shui in a cheongsam and high heels, her back silhouette under the old street lights, looked almost otherworldly beautiful. 。Xiao Zheng thought, Jian Xiushui might not truly belong to this small town. 。。

Jianxiu Shui's house was actually on the southernmost edge of town, bordering the suburbs. So, the further south you went, the fewer people there were, and streetlights became increasingly scarce. Some of the streetlights were old and broken, no longer working. 。When Jian Xiu Shui walked forward, her heart began to race. 。She quickened her pace. 。However, after walking a hundred meters or so, Jian Xiushui suddenly saw two faint red dots ahead, and then she heard the voices of two men. 。Jian Xiu Shui couldn't hear clearly, anyway it didn't concern her. She just wanted to get home safely, so she quickened her pace. 。Getting closer, Jianxiu Shui heard one of the men mumbling, "Today, how come he's so unlucky I lost all two thousand. I even lost the money for my wife's back." 。Another man said, “Strong Brother, don’t even get me started. I lost even worse, I gambled away my mom's gold necklace there!” Jian Xiushui could tell that these two were probably small-time hoodlums from town who had just lost money. 。The two little red dots just now were the cigarette butts in their hands. 。

Jianxiu Shui didn't want to provoke these people, so she tried to walk quietly by the side of the road, not wanting to attract their attention. 。Dozens of meters away, there was only one street lamp. Where they crossed paths, there wasn't much light. 。Jianxiu Shui shrank her body and walked forward. Those two thugs seemed not to have noticed her at all. 。We were still chatting about "Tomorrow, I'm going to look through..." 。"Another said, "What flip book, I want those dudes to give me all their pants!" 。“Yes, yes” 。Jianxiu Shui had already left them more than ten meters away. She felt that the two hooligans should not notice her, she let out a sigh of relief and continued to walk forward. 。At that moment, a gruff voice suddenly rang out from behind her: "Hold it right there!" 。Jian Xiushui's whole body shook, but she pretended not to hear and continued walking quickly forward. 。Suddenly, another voice shouted from behind her, "You woman, stop right there!"

Another voice growled, "If you don't stop, I'll teach you a lesson!" Jian Xiushui's heart pounded. She started to run. 。She immediately heard footsteps behind her. Jian Xiushui knew the two people were chasing after her, so she ran as hard as she could. But the tension inside made her legs feel weak and she was wearing high heels, which made it impossible to run fast. 。But she still ran desperately. Her heart was a bit regretful, wondering why she hadn't let Xiao Zheng send her off just now.

"Where do you think you're going!"

Jian Xiushui suddenly felt a sharp pain in the back of her head. She combed her hair up and it came loose, one strand being grabbed by the other person. It hurt so much that she couldn't run anymore. 。"You run again! You run again!" The heavy smell of smoke and the alcoholic breath from the other person made Jian Xiushui turn her face away. 。Behind the

came another man running up. In the dim light, he couldn't make out Jian Xiushui's face, so he used a lighter to strike a flame and waved it in front of Jian Xiushui, chuckling, "Not bad looking, huh!" He asked the man who had grabbed Jian Xiushui's hair, "Do you know this woman"The man looked and said, "Isn't she the widow who runs the noodle shop in town! She dressed up like this today to seduce men" Jian Xiushui covered her hair with her hands, enduring the pain, "I didn't seduce anyone..." 。"Jian Xiushui, in heels and with her hands covering her roots, appeared even more alluring and seductive. Her curves were especially noticeable." 。The man who was holding a lighter chuckled and said, “You didn't go to seduce men, did you You came here to seduce us on purpose You didn't answer when I called you just now, that must be part of your seduction tactics, right”

Jian Xiushui thought to herself, "This guy is crazy! Who would want to seduce him!" But she didn't want to anger them, so she said: “I didn't ” 。The man who grabbed Jianxiu's hair tightly said to "Qiang Ge", "Brother Qiang, I finally know why we were so unlucky today." 。"Strong Ge asked: "Why Tell me." 。"Isn't that obvious It's because we ran into this widow today, isn't it" "You make sense." 。d his desk, but at this moment, he stood up and walked out, saying: "What are you doing Why are you bowing so deeply"He motioned slightly with his hand towards the sofa: "Come sit on the sofa." 。Then...
