"Xiao Lanlan, run!" I signaled her with my eyes and said hurriedly, as if I had seen a ghost.
Guan Ruolan was surprised by my reaction. She frowned and asked, "Why?!"
"It's dangerous here!"
I didn't explain to her in detail. Although she was astonished, she didn't ask me anything and just followed me to leave.
Guan Ruolan was an ordinary girl now, so her stamina wasn't as good as before. Luckily, I was supporting her, so she was able to run as fast as she could. Tang Mengyun was wearing high heels, so we soon left her far behind.
After running for two blocks, I turned around and saw Tang Mengyun crossing the road. At this moment, a gray van stopped by the roadside. Two men walked out of the van, and while Tang Mengyun wasn't paying attention, they covered her mouth and forcefully dragged her into the van.
The whole process didn't even take ten seconds. It was so smooth that even the passersby didn't notice it. If I didn't see it, I might have missed it too.
I suddenly stopped walking. This was too embarrassing. Every time, God purposely emphasized my importance. It was so embarrassing. If I didn't see it, I could pretend to be deaf and mute. But now that I saw it, I couldn't ignore it. Tang Mengyun was Hsieh Shih-chi's junior, a beauty from the school, so I had to give her some face.
"Why didn't you run?"
Guan Ruolan was a little depressed. Looking at my expression, it was as if I had seen something scary. She didn't know what was going on.
"Xiao Lanlan, I won't hide it from you. That girl on the stage is my friend's friend. Because there is some misunderstanding between us, in order to not make you angry, I chose to leave. But just now, I saw that she was kidnapped. No matter what, I can't just stand by and do nothing, right?"
That was what I was thinking. Tang Mengyun was wearing high heels, but she still chased after me. No matter what her motive was, at least she put down her dignity as a girl.
When I recalled how she had hired a temporary bodyguard, I felt like I had spilled half a bottle of soy sauce in my heart. I couldn't describe what I was feeling. From her, I had seen a lot of negative things in society. Of course, to be precise, they weren't really negative. It was just that some things, if I hadn't seen them with my own eyes, I would have found it hard to believe.
Speaking of which, in Beijing, there were many ambitious young people like Tang Mengyun. But those who could achieve their goals were few and far between, especially when it came to buying a house. Unless they were the top people in their field, it was difficult to buy a house in Beijing. After all, the housing prices in Beijing were the highest in the world.
A gold-digger like Tang Mengyun, after experiencing a lot of storms, had a high level of awareness. She also understood that in most cases, relying on men wouldn't work. It was better to earn a living on her own. So, she took on many jobs and tried all kinds of ways to make herself famous. After many twists and turns, she learned her lesson. When it came to treating men, she couldn't be too obedient. Otherwise, she would lose her own attitude and stand.
Those directors and producers always put forward some harsh requests. Tang Mengyun always rejected them. Later on, she became ambiguous. She felt that she didn't serve them well, so she didn't get any important roles or scenes.
In fact, when she had this thought, she had already fallen into a passive situation. Just when Tang Mengyun was about to lose her sense of self, she met me. Especially when I stood up for her. In order to fight for her, I even beat up Second Young Master Fan.
Not only that, according to Tang Mengyun's information, it seemed that last night, the entire Fan family suffered an unprecedented and painful blow. It seemed that not a single person survived!
Her first reaction was to think that she was the one who did it. After all, the Fan family was considered a second or third-rate family in Beijing. Although they weren't famous, they weren't bad either. Despite such a huge incident, the relevant departments in Beijing didn't take the initiative to step forward and say anything.
It was really strange. However, Tang Mengyun couldn't help but think of me. With my ability, I could have dealt a heavy blow to the Fan family. If that was really the case, perhaps it was for her. How could Tang Mengyun remain calm? Even though she saw Guan Ruolan beside me, she still wanted to thank me. However, I ran away faster than a rabbit, and she was kidnapped by accident.
As a man with a sense of responsibility and integrity, I couldn't just stand by and watch.
Seeing my serious expression, Guan Ruolan didn't suspect anything. She waved her hand. "Okay, go. I'll believe you this time."
"Xiao Lanlan, you're too good. Give me a kiss."
I moved closer and kissed her white face. That warm and soft feeling made me happy. However, the most important thing now was to save her.
Guan Ruolan was a broad-minded woman. Because she had experienced the situation of being kidnapped, Guan Ruolan had personally experienced that kind of helplessness and despair. Not to mention that Tang Mengyun was a friend of my friend, even if she didn't know her, Guan Ruolan would most likely ask me to help her. In fact, a truly intelligent woman should be like Guan Ruolan. When she could play dumb, she would play dumb.
After saying goodbye to her, I rushed over. Even if they were driving, they still had to wait for traffic lights. I quickly caught up.
"Put him down," I said with a gloomy face. I was in a bad mood.
Aside from Tang Mengyun, there were three strong men in the car. What surprised me was that they were all ordinary people. There weren't any martial artists. This was strange. Who gave them the courage?
"Ah …" My scolding scared them. When they turned around, they found that I was holding onto the windowsill and had unconsciously opened the window.
"Pa da." I heard the sound of glass shattering. The van also spiraled and almost flipped over.
