"Just checking, bring it." They walked towards her slowly, then closer.

Xi Wu retreated and retreated, but finally mustered up the courage to grab the camera and immediately turned around and ran away——

"Stop!"

A bunch of people were chasing her.

The sound of rapid footsteps behind him kept coming, making Xi Wu so nervous that he could only run forward as hard as he could, without caring about anything -

"Help! Someone come and save me!" she shouted while running.

No one dared to pay attention to her at all.

In other words, no one had time to pay attention to her.

The people in the club are used to spending their days leisurely, and the ladies with champagne and wine are very surprised by the current scene of you chasing me.

"Help, please, can someone help me?" Even if no one paid attention, she continued to scream. She couldn't be taken away "silently" like this, right?

There were neither too many nor too few people in the club, but those tall men in black chased her in public without any hesitation, completely ignoring the eyes of others. This shows that they are bound to capture her camera...

Damn it!Did they think that her camera might capture evidence of them doing bad things, so they pursued her?

That smell is definitely blood.

So during the twenty minutes she left, there might have been a stabbing incident in that box?But she didn't see the injured person... being carried away?Is he dead or injured?

Xi Wu thought about the video recording function that she had just turned off, and thought that before she came to retrieve the camera, the lens of the camera was facing the inside of the box...

Oh my god, no?Her camera couldn't be so unlucky and just happened to capture the scene of the murder, right?

Xi Wu's scalp felt numb at the thought of this great possibility, and she ran forward even more desperately. However, if she walked too much at night, she would always bump into... someone. This person's chest was so hard that she was really dizzy and out of breath from the collision.

"Help... I'm sorry, I didn't mean to bump into you..." Xi Wu gasped, her words completely incoherent, and she held onto the other person tightly with her hands."Save me, someone wants to arrest me..."

She actually had no hope. No one with any sense would help her fight against several tall men in black suits before they figured out the situation. Those people could tell at a glance that they were not kind, and only idiots would wade into the muddy waters of strangers.

But she is a person who will not give up as long as there is a glimmer of hope. Since this person is bumped into by her, it means that she is destined. She must ask for it, and she will have no regrets even if she is rejected.

Chapter 13(2)

She waited for this man to throw her away, but she didn't expect that after waiting for a long time, this man not only didn't throw her away, but also hugged her, who was dizzy and out of breath.

"How will you repay me for saving you?"

Above the head, there was a pleasant and familiar voice...

It was... Saito Hideki?Why is he here?Is she deaf, or is she hearing hallucinations?

Xi Wu suddenly raised his head and looked at the owner of this chest - who was he?Even if he was wearing sunglasses, she could recognize him immediately.Moreover, if she hadn't been knocked dizzy just now, she would have recognized him just by the smell of him, right?

"Why are you looking at me stupidly? Answer me, if I save you, what will you do in return?" Saito Hideki looked at her tenderly in his arms.

The look on her face was so affectionate that it made her heart beat wildly.

"I...I...how do you want me to repay you?"

He chuckled."How about I pledge myself to you?"

"You——"

"Pull her down if you don't want to. Anyway, I'm not familiar with you." After saying that, Saito Hideki stretched out his hand to pull her away from him.

Xi Wu held him tighter with her backhand."Promise! You can't ignore me!"

"This is what you promised yourself."

"What I say is hard to follow. I, Xi Wu, will do what I say! You can't rely on me!"

Saito Hideki laughed again."Okay, then I'll help you."

Just as he finished speaking, he heard a sneer coming from in front of him——

"Sir, I advise you not to mind your own business." The elder brother who took the lead glared at him fiercely."This is our territory."

Saito Hideki raised his eyebrows and smiled lightly."Is this club opened by your master?"

The eldest brother who took the lead was stunned for a moment, obviously stunned by his question."No, but-"

"Since it's not the case, you want to fight and kill others on their territory? How unbecoming is it for a large group of men to chase a woman?"

"As long as she hands over the camera, we won't embarrass her."

"Camera?" Saito Hideki lowered his head and glanced at Xi Wu."Whose camera is it?"

"Of course it's mine! When I photographed you that day, I used this camera -"

"Did you hear that?" Saito Hideki interrupted Xi Wu with a smile and turned to look at the men."There are nude photos of me in the camera, so it's really inconvenient for you to share them."

Xi Wu suddenly raised her head to look at him, and the leader also frowned when he heard this.

"Brother, don't listen to his wordy words. Just grab the things. Otherwise, if something happens, how will we explain to the boss?" The younger brother on the side turned his fist and pulled out a knife from his sleeve.

The sharp blade dazzled people's eyes, and there was a scream from all around -

"Call security!" someone said."What is the security doing? Why don't you show up after all the trouble? How did those people get in?"

Everyone who had no time to react just now was finally in a mess.

"Call the police." Someone said while talking on the phone.

People who are afraid of being exposed quickly take their things and leave.

Saito Hideki was calm and composed, and just gently pushed the woman in his arms away."Hide behind me, hide well, and close your eyes if you're afraid of blood... Don't be afraid, I will protect you."

"I'm not afraid." Because you are here.Xi Wu gave him a smile and hid behind him obediently.

As soon as she moved, the opponent took action. Several people besieged Saito Hideki alone. Xi Wu knew that he was strong and talented in martial arts. When she met him today, it was like meeting God. She knew that she would definitely escape. But even so, she was still extremely nervous watching from the sidelines.

The other boy has a knife in his hand, and the knife is very sharp. Although I believe he can dodge it, but with so many people hitting him, it is inevitable that they will lose sight of one thing...

Just as she was thinking about it, who would have expected that the younger brother's blade turned and instead of dealing with him, he took the opportunity to stab her fiercely——

"Ah!" She screamed in fright, hurriedly squatted down, raised her hands subconsciously, and covered her face and head.

The knife did not fall...

She heard a very low groan, followed by the boy's cry of pain.

"Damn it! Let's go!" The leader shouted and told people to retreat.

The brothers were very obedient and dispersed as soon as they were told, disappearing in the blink of an eye.

It was so quiet that all I could hear was someone's heavy breathing...

Xi Wu peeked her face out. Saito Hideki was looking at her condescendingly and stretched out his hand to her.

"Get up like a little mouse."

Is he making fun of her?

Xi Wu couldn't help but glare at him, took his hand and stood up, but sharply saw a blood mark on the back of his hand scratched by a knife——

She quickly grabbed his hand."Are you injured? You're bleeding!"

Saito Hideki glanced at her and wanted to take his hand away, but she held on to it. After thinking about it, he simply let her hold on to him. After all, if he hadn't been injured, he would have had to wait for how long it would take for her to take the initiative to hold his hand.

"Why is it hurt? Aren't you very skilled?"

Hearing this, he raised his eyebrows and wanted to ask her how she knew he was very skilled?Just as he was about to raise his sarcastic lips, warmth dripped from the back of his hand...

Drop after drop, silent but hot.

Saito Hideki's dark eyes dimmed, and a faint light flashed in his eyes as he looked at her.

"Why are you crying? It's just a small injury."

The more calm and clear he spoke, the harder Xi Wu's tears fell.

"It's all my fault. It's me who hurt you. That's why such a beautiful hand was injured..." She cried and wiped her tears, a little choked with tears when she spoke.

He raised his eyebrows and said disapprovingly: "How can a martial arts practitioner not get hurt? You cried like this because of this small injury. What will you do in the future?"

Can't understand...

"What's next?" She looked at him with tearful eyes.

Playing dumb?Or really stupid?Saito Hideki smiled and wiped away her tears with his other hand.

"Let's go. If you don't leave, you may not be able to leave later." If those people couldn't defeat him, they would definitely find more people. If a gun was fired, he wouldn't be able to hide no matter how powerful he was.
