Chapter 318: Chapter 318: The Man She Will Marry When She Grows Up (2) Chapter 318: Chapter 318: The Man She Will Marry When She Grows Up (2) His gaze trailed down from her face, igniting a fiery desire within, twisting his lips into a smirk, “Co get it…”
Before he could finish speaking, soone suddenly charged in.
Without ti to see clearly, he was kicked flying against the wall.
The man howled in pain, the knife in his hand falling to the ground.
Just as he was trying to crawl up to retrieve the knife, a pair of leather shoes appeared in his field of vision, viciously stepping on his hand.
The bones in his fingers felt as if they were instantly crushed, and he scread in agony like a slaughtered pig.
Gu Annan, standing on that hand, bent down and nonchalantly took his bag back.
“Gu Annan!”
Gu Annan heard the voice but didn’t turn around, tossing the reclaid bag toward her.
His cold gaze settled on the man writhing on the ground in pain, disgust flashing across his face as he lifted his foot, “Scram!”
The man’s hand seed to be ruined, the pain nearly leaving him breathless.
For the first ti, he realized how torturous it felt to have one’s hand stepped on by soone else.
It felt as though every joint in his fingers had just been shattered.
Hearing that command to “scram,” he ran without looking back, as if he’d been granted a reprieve.
“How can you be so stupid?” Gu Annan turned around and bellowed at her, “Didn’t you see he was deliberately luring you into this alley? And you just mindlessly ran in here?”
Lu Wanwan was stunned by his shout. She had never seen this man, who was always calm and composed, so out of control and growling.
“But my bag…”
Gu Annan looked at her, his face tight with tension.
He was not just angry; he was also anxious.
He couldn’t see her since she left the parking lot, and if he hadn’t co specifically, who knew what might have happened.
She had such a lack of safety awareness, and yet she dared to live on her own outside!
“The bag?” he said icily, “If you were so careless, you could have lost your life. What use would these things be then? As burial items?”
Lu Wanwan lowered her head, her heart pounding nervously.
She really had nothing to argue with, so focused on getting her bag back that she couldn’t afford to think about anything else.
She had thought that the robber wouldn’t risk so much for a bag that wasn’t worth much.
Watching Gu Annan walk away with a gloomy face, the hand holding her bag still trembled.
Following him out of the alley, she saw him make a call outside, though she couldn’t hear clearly what was said, it seed like he was talking to soone nad Director Li.
When Gu Annan finished the call, she spoke with a timid voice, “Why are you here?”
Pocketing his phone, he glanced at her, his face still stormy with unresolved anger.
“Thanks for earlier. It happened so fast, I didn’t get a chance to think so much. Next ti, I’ll definitely…”
“There’s a next ti?”
If there were a next ti, then all the police in this area might as well just go ho.
“Gu Annan…” she blinked, “can you take ho?”
Gu Annan’s expression was still cold, his overwhelming presence stemming from a heart that couldn’t settle down.
Even though the man’s hand was ruined, he remained deeply shaken.
“Now you know to be scared?”
Lu Wanwan hurriedly nodded, “I’m scared now, I don’t dare to go back alone.”
*
Lu Wanwan held her bag with both hands, walking side by side with him toward the residential complex.
She had told a little lie; in truth, she was no longer afraid.
From the mont Gu Annan appeared, she felt not the slightest fear.
As they arrived at the base of the building, Gu Annan stopped walking. She looked up in surprise, “What’s wrong?”
He raised an eyebrow at her, casually saying, “You’ve arrived.”
“…” Lu Wanwan looked up at him, pausing for a mont before speaking, “You haven’t had dinner yet, have you?”
