"I'm not like Han Yang. If I were to bully you, I wouldn't treat you like this." Shao Jun did not move his body away. He just smiled gracefully and stared at her with his dark eyes. He said in a serious tone. "Also, we really know each other..."

"I told you to go away!"

Before Shao Jun could finish his sentence, Xu Nianyi, who had been pressed against the wall, suddenly shouted. She waved her hands like a cat that was pressed in water and pushed the man away.

"Don't be afraid. I really want to help you." Shao Jun took two steps back and continued. "Help me?" She seemed to have heard a joke and a mocking smile appeared on her flushed face. "Everyone was laughing at me now. Who will help me?"

"I will help you. I am not like them." Shao Jun stared at her. His deep voice was exceptionally gentle. "You have to believe me."

"I don't trust anyone now! I don't believe anyone but myself!"

Xu Nianyi shouted hysterically as she supported herself against the wall with one hand. After that, she took a step forward. She bypassed Shao Jun, and strode out of the room.

Seeing her running away, Shao Jun frowned and whispered, "Damn it, why was she so disobedient?"

*

After running out of the private room, Xu Nianyi walked to the quiet highway. With the cold wind, she could feel more awake.

However, her body became even hotter because of the sprint just now. Sweat was oozing from her temples, and her steps were getting heavier and unsteady.

Her body seemed to be roasted on the fire, and even her breathing became difficult. After walking for a while, she felt out of breathing. Even her vision became blurry, and the street lamps in the distance were a little blurry.

"Beep."

Suddenly, there was the sound of a car honking.

Xu Nianyi turned her head and saw a black Land Rover slowly coming from behind. The car light was bright and golden, which dazzled her.

She squinted her eyes and stopped to wait for the car to pass.

However, the car came to stop beside her. The black windows were rolled down, and the man in the driver's seat was dressed in white. A warm smile appeared on his gentle face, "Be good. Get in the car."

Xu Nianyi took a step back vigilantly and glanced at him expressionlessly, her eyes still full of vigilance.

"Come on, I'll take you to a safe place." Shao Jun spoke softly.

Her eyes full of vigilance, she was ungrateful and said coldly, "Why should I listen to you? I didn't beg you to save me. Don't think that you will have any relationship with me for saving me!"

"Why do you think so?" Shao Jun raised his eyebrows and his smile faded. "I really want to help you. We really know each other, but you just forgot."

"Stop it, I won't believe you!" Xu Nianyi interrupted him with a trembling voice. "Don't follow me anymore!"

"Why are you more stubborn than before?" The gentleness in Shao Jun's eyes faded. He looked at her resignedly and said seriously. "Do you know you'll be in danger if I really don't care about you? Do you really think it was just an accident that Han Yang bothered you tonight? How could be so coincidentally to meet him where you worked?"

"You mean..." Xu Nianyi was stunned. What he meant was that someone planned and arranged everything that happened tonight?

"Think about it. Who is the one hate you most and don't want to see you now. Who has the deepest grudge against you?"

"She was once my best friend, Xu Fei." Xu Nianyi suddenly realized and thought of Xu Fei's cute and innocent face.

Xu Fei was not only her former best friend but also her illegitimate young sister. She was the child of her father and a mistress.

Unfortunately, she knew it too late.

At first, Xu Fei approached her as a friend. It was not until the day of her wedding that she realized that this so-called good friend was her illegitimate sister!

"You understand now?" Seeing the disgust in her eyes, Shao Jun opened the car door and walked out. "Your situation isn't safe, so get in the car first. I'll make arrangements for the rest."

"No!" Xu Nianyi's face stiffened, and the vigilance in her eyes did not diminish. "I will be careful. Thank you for telling me so much."

After saying this coldly, she turned around and ran towards a square on the side of the road, trying to shake off the man behind her.

After running for a long distance, Xu Nianyi became limp and lost all her strength, and she stopped in panting.

After running hard, her body became even hotter. The sweat from her temples had already slid down along her neck to her collar, and she felt like she was walking in the desert.

It was so hot, she really wanted to find a cool place.

With difficulty, she supported herself and slowly moved to the music fountain in the middle of the square.

Looking at the turbid water in the fountain, she jumped into it without hesitation.

With a flop, water splashed high all around.

After soaking in the cold water, Xu Nianyi finally felt better and her mind became clear again.

Recalling the humiliating scene in the nightclub's private room, she could not help but clench her hands, the fingernails sinking deep into her palms.

Ha ha, what a joke!

She used to be so arrogant, but now she actually was reduced to such a situation. It wasn't enough for her to be framed and imprisoned, she was even humiliated by others who stripped off her clothes.

She was useless. She was nothing without the family. Even after getting out of prison, it was extremely difficult for her to send a resume to find a job. In order to collect the cost of her mother's hospitalization, she could only work in a nightclub first.

If all the socialites in the Xiahai city knew how miserable she was now, they would be rather happy.

Xu Fei replaced her and became the daughter of the mayor. She would definitely laugh in her dream.

She was really an idiot. She had lived so foolishly in the past. Xu Fei and Lu Jingcheng, they all had no good intentions, but she could not tell at all.

In the cold water, Xu Nianyi did not feel cold at all. The water splashed at the corner of her eyes. It looked like tears.

Just as Xu Nianyi clenched her fists and was about to burst into tears, a splash suddenly appeared in the calm water.

It splashed innumerable drops of water.

Then, she felt her waist was tightened and she was pulled out of the water and fell into a warm embrace.

"You, what are you doing!"

It was only then that Xu Nianyi finally reacted. She raised her head and glared at the man who was hugging her. "Put me down!"

Shao Jun hugged her who was wet as if he didn't hear her shout and didn't care about the expensive suit he was wearing. He just walked in the cold water and stubbornly carried her out of the fountain.

"Put me down. I told you to leave me alone!" Xu Nianyi frowned when she saw that he refused to let go of her. She beat his chest and struggled to get down from him. "Put me down, jerk. What the hell you want to do?"
