was actually followed, could it be that person a kidnapper? Su Lan's heart fluttered and beat non-stop.

Song Chi signaled Su Lan not to look backwards, to remain natural, as if nothing had happened. His own hand held Su Lan firmly in order to give her a sense of security and let her not be afraid.

The two turned into a small road, and sure enough, there was a person behind them, and they were in hot pursuit.

Song Chi glanced at the man, he had long hair, a lot of beard, a strong figure, and looked a little obscene.

Seeing that this person was aiming at Song Chi and Su Lan, he followed wherever they went. The man was always cautious and kept a certain distance, as if waiting for some moment.

Song Chi was thinking in his heart about how to deal with that person.

He knew that 200 meters further on, there was an alley, and the road was very narrow. Song Chi wanted to lead this person there, and then capture him there. He whispered to Su Lan, "When I turn into that alley, I'll stop the person who is following us behind." You just keep running, leave me alone, and call the police immediately if necessary. ”

"You always don't care about your own safety, I can't leave you behind, in case he has a knife or something, it will be dangerous. Let's call the police right away! Su Lan responded.

Song Chi said: "I want to lure him into the bait, he may be the murderer who kidnapped Cao Mingxuan." If you call the police, you will scare him away. Trust me, I'll take care of myself, I'm measured. ”

Although Su Lan was a hundred uneasy in her heart, when she heard Song Chi say so confidently, she agreed with him.

The two walked in front, and the people who followed behind were still in hot pursuit. As the alley drew closer, both of them began to breathe loudly.

The person who was following him also turned into the alley, and under the cover of the dim light, Song Chi stepped forward, and with lightning speed, he used his ribs to jam the person's neck and pinned him to the wall.

And Su Lan followed Song Chi's jihua and ran all the way down the alley.

"Say! weishenme wants to track us! Song Chi's eyes erupted with fire, and he said sharply at that person.

The man's neck was stuck, and he couldn't speak for a while. He rolled his eyes and pointed to the iced black tea bottle in Song Chi's hand with his left hand.

Odd? What was he pointing to this plastic bottle for? Song Chi looked puzzled.

I was too far away to see the man's face clearly. Now that the distance is so close, Song Chi looks a little weird at first glance. His long hair was dirty, and his face was like black coal, as if he hadn't washed his face in months. The clothes on his body are even more torn, not to mention patches, and they still exude a sour smell.

Could this man be ...... Scavengers?

Seeing that Song Chi's hand was a little loose, the man quickly broke free, squatted in the corner and coughed. He didn't expect Song Chi to suddenly attack him, he was really scared half to death just now.

"Who the hell are you? What are your intentions? Song Chi asked again.

The man slowly stood up, looking innocent. "What's the matter, I'm picking up the rags, what do you want to do?"

When Song Chi heard that it was a northeast accent, he was immediately stunned. "It turned out to be a misunderstanding! I happen to have a bottle in my hand, if you don't dislike it, take it! ”

Now it was the scavenger's turn to be unhappy, and he looked resentful. "Who are you? You're done with your drink, why don't you throw the bottle in the trash? I've chased you for a few streets, am I easy? Why are you? ”

It seems that this person is not only brute force, but also has a bit of a mental problem. It turned out that he followed himself and Su Lan all the way just for the empty bottle in his hand, which was really ridiculous.

"Big brother, I really didn't know you had this need. If you want it, just let me know, you don't have to follow us so hard. Song Chi's tone softened.

The scavenger shouted, "Uncle, I'm happy to be like this!" I don't understand, why are you dragging this empty bottle to death? Do you look down on me, do you look down on me, do you deliberately trick me? ”

As he spoke, the scavenger's eyeballs bulged out, and his face was fierce.

As the saying goes, a good man doesn't suffer immediate losses. This kind of scoundrel, with him, is definitely useless.

"Big brother, you see that it is very hard to follow us all the way. It was my negligence that I didn't throw the bottle away early and hurt your feelings. Don't do that...... I have 10 yuan here, so I'll compensate you. After speaking, Song Chi took out 10 yuan from his pocket and handed it to the scavengers.

The scavenger snatched the banknotes, and still said proudly: "I followed you so far away, and I only gave 10 yuan, should you send it to Hanako?" After speaking, his eyes were still fixed on the empty bottle in Song Chi's hand.

There is a saying that it is easy to please God and difficult to send God. It seems that this scavenger has a soft spot for this empty bottle.

Song Chi threw the empty bottle in his hand into the trash can, and the scavenger's eyes immediately lit up, and he ran to the trash can one by one. I saw him scrupulously rummaging through the garbage, until he found the empty bottle that Song Chi had just thrown away, like a treasure.

After the scavenger left satisfied, Su Lan returned to the alley and asked worriedly, "Song Chi, is he a kidnapper?" Are we going to call the police? ”

Song Chi shook his head, as if he was in another world. "Maybe our nerves are too tight, he's just picking up rags. It's getting late, I'll take you home! ”

So they flagged down a taxi on the road and returned to Su Lan's home.

Song Chi sat on the sofa in the living room, and Su Lan's huge mansion looked deserted.

Su Lan went to the bedroom to change into a casual dress, then went to the kitchen and made a cup of Pu'er tea for Song Chi.

A few fashion magazines were piled up on the coffee table, a large bag of Oreo cookies and instant noodles was in the basket, and a low cabinet next to the sofa was filled with various bottles of pills.

"I'm sorry, I'm alone at home, so it's messy, I hope you don't be weird." Su Lan said politely.

Song Chi responded: "Why don't you ask an aunt to help you clean up, you're too tired to be at home alone." ”

"Originally, there was an aunt, but since Mingxuan was kidnapped, I was afraid of outsiders and didn't trust outsiders, so I dismissed my aunt." Su Lan replied in a light tone.

When she was outside just now, Su Lan was still talking and laughing, but as soon as she returned home, she was listless.

Song Chi looked through a few bottles of medicine jars, there were cold medicines, painkillers, and even sleeping pills. "Su Lan, have you been eating this for the past few days?" Song Chi found that the sleeping pill jar was almost empty.

Su Lan brought an ashtray and lit a cigarette. "I couldn't sleep at night and could only take a little sleeping pill. Staying at home, I sometimes don't even dare to answer a stranger's phone. Song Chi, I'm really scared, I'm going to get goosebumps. ”

Looking at Su Lan's haggard face, Song Chi was also heartbroken. What was once a cheerful girl is now so gloomy. For her, an even bigger blow is still to come.

Su Lan accidentally bounced a lump of cigarette ash to the ground. She grabbed a tissue and bent down to pick up the ashes. The sleeves slipped off, revealing the left side of the chest and arms.

Song Chi was suddenly shocked, he saw that there were several wide red marks on Su Lan's chest and arms. "What's going on? Where did these red marks come from? ”

When Su Lan heard this, she quickly pulled up her sleeves and said with a panicked expression: "No...... I accidentally touched it. ”

"You're lying!" Song Chi pulled down Su Lan's sleeve, and the red mark was in front of him. "Did Cao Mingxuan do this?"

Su Lan's tears suddenly fell in large pieces, and she felt extremely aggrieved. "Sometimes, when Mingxuan comes back from drinking, when he is not in a good mood, he often uses a belt to whip me ......"

Damn, this Cao Mingxuan is really not a thing! A useless man only beats his wife at home.

If Cao Mingxuan was in front of him at this moment, Song Chi would definitely beat him hard.

"Didn't you say it earlier? You can tell his father, you can call the police, and you can even go to the Women's Federation......" Song Chi said angrily.

Su Lan replied: "Useless Song Chi, what else can I do?" I'm a weak woman, who will believe me when I go outside? What if you sue him down, divorce? Then I will have nothing left. ”

Hearing this, Song Chi already fully understood Su Lan's suffering. He stepped forward and hugged Su Lan and took her into his arms. "I promise, Cao Mingxuan will never beat you or bully you again in the future! From now on, no one will bully you again! ”

"Xiexie, you Song Chi, you are always there when I need help the most." Su Lan lay on Song Chi's shoulder and began to cry.

Song Chi comforted: "You have to cheer up and welcome a new life." You have to believe in your own abilities, don't cling to those who can't be trusted, you can support yourself alone......"

At this moment, Song Chi's mobile phone rang, and when he saw it, it turned out to be Zhang Yulin. "Where are you? I don't send you back, did you go to the moon? Zhang Yulin asked in the first sentence.

Song Chi glanced at Su Lan, turned his back and said, "I'...... I was very tired today, and I slept first when I got home, so I didn't see any news from you. ”

"Are you sick? Does it matter? Are pills available? If not, I'll send some? Zhang Yulin asked with concern.

When Song Chi heard this, he was almost dumbfounded. He is now at Su Lan's house, and if Zhang Yulin comes over, he will be all exposed. "It's okay, it's okay...... I'm all cured. You don't have to come, you don't have to come! ”

"Haha, less smelly beauty, I'm kidding you! That stinky dog house in your house, if you invite me to come, I won't come...... By the way, I would like to ask you if you are free this Saturday afternoon? Zhang Yulin giggled.

Song Chi hurriedly asked, "Saturday?" What's the matter? ”

"I opened a new Japanese restaurant near my house, and I got a triple discount for the whole audience. I haven't eaten salmon in a long time, and I can't get enough of it just thinking about it. You've invited me a few times before, so this time, I want to invite you back! It turned out that Zhang Yulin wanted to invite Song Chi to dinner.

So that's the case, Song Chi sighed. "You invite me to dinner, this kind of thing is rarer than a comet hitting the earth. Of course I'm here, so it's decided. ”

After hanging up Zhang Yulin's phone, Song Chi sighed in his heart, like a thief. Su Lan saw his nervousness and said, "I'm sorry, because of my business, you don't have time to accompany Zhang Yulin." ”

"Well, I'll explain it to her if I have the chance. I'm sure she'll understand me for doing this, after all, it's a time when you need comfort the most. Song Chi responded.

It was already half past nine in the evening, and Zhang Yulin said: "It's not early, you don't have to accompany me anymore, go home early." I will remember your words and cherish myself well. ”

Song Chi nodded, seeing that Su Lan's mood had recovered a lot, he was also relieved. It's too late, and I shouldn't stay too late.

"Eat more fruit and exercise more. Remember, don't take sleeping pills again! When Song Chi was leaving, he still didn't forget to tell Su Lan.
