Chapter 62: A business trip
Because the design of the mall invited a senior designer from the United States, in order to show the sincerity of the company, Bai Ruoyi had to go to the United States in person.
However, she was actually happy to go on this business trip, after all, she had returned to China for a long time, and it was time to visit her father.
As soon as he got off the plane, Bai Ruoyi planned to take a car to the hotel he had booked.
Before he could get a taxi, Bai Ruoyi realized that there were several tall men gathered around him.
At first, she didn't notice anything wrong, but she felt that they were standing next to her, forming an invisible pressure on her.
But the passers-by around her avoided them and walked away, including a couple walking by.
The woman said softly to the man in English, "Why are there knives behind those men?" ”
Bai Ruoyi's eyes contracted, and a chill ran in his back.
And the people around him, as if they couldn't understand English, didn't notice that Bai Ruoyi had already sensed what they were going to do.
Bai Ruoyi immediately ran away, and the men really caught up.
Running to a place where there were few people, the men actually took out all the knives, and the bright knives flashed with cold light.
Bai Ruoyi was so frightened that his heart was about to jump out, and he didn't relax at all, and ran faster.
"Ahh Bai Ruoyi let out an exclamation, because he ran too hard, his foot was twisted, and he fell directly to the ground.
Bai Ruoyi hurriedly turned around, looked at the men in horror, and held a knife to him.
Bai Ruoyi kept shaking his head and shouting, "Don't! After I finished screaming, I kept shouting for help.
But the men and passers-by turned a deaf ear to her cries.
Bai Ruoyi hugged his body tightly and closed his eyes in despair.
Could it be that she is going to die in a foreign country today, and no one knows about it?
Suddenly, she heard some sounds of fighting, and when she opened her eyes, she saw Shen Tingchen, who was dressed in a suit, fighting with those men.
Although Shen Tingchen was bare-handed, anyone with a discerning eye could see that Shen Tingchen had the upper hand.
Soon, Shen Tingchen beat those men away, and he didn't chase them.
Bai Ruoyi looked up at Shen Tingchen, and at that moment, Shen Tingchen was like a god, exuding the light of a savior.
"Why are you here?" Bai Ruoyi asked Shen Tingchen in great surprise, as if Shen Tingchen would appear by his side every time it was critical.
Because Bai Ruoyi had just walked back from the Ghost Gate, in addition to being happy, he was full of gratitude to Shen Tingchen.
She didn't notice that her eyes were full of joy and anticipation.
Shen Tingchen looked at Bai Ruoyi condescendingly, although the light in Bai Ruoyi's eyes made Shen Tingchen very satisfied.
But as soon as he thought of what Shen Tingyu had done in the mountains and forests a while ago, the enthusiasm in his heart cooled a little in vain.
"Just passing by." Shen Tingchen said coldly, "It's you, how can you encounter danger no matter where you are?" ”
Bai Ruoyi felt extremely aggrieved, he was almost dead just now.
She didn't know who sent those people, and the whole person hadn't completely come out of the panic, but Shen Tingchen had such an attitude.
"It's not like I want to be in danger!" Bai Ruoyi retorted with a frown.
"Hey, troublesome." Shen Tingchen looked disgusted, but his body slowly squatted down and picked up Bai Ruoyi.
Of course, Bai Ruoyi would not let Shen Tingchen hug him in peace, and struggled in his arms, "You let me down, don't touch me!" ”
Although Bai Ruoyi weighed very little, Shen Tingchen couldn't stand her struggling so hard.
Shen Tingchen was already oozing fine sweat on his forehead, gritted his teeth and said angrily, "If I move with me again, I'll throw you into the river, believe it or not!" ”
Sure enough, Bai Ruoyi'an, who heard this, was divided, but his eyes were still so hostile.
Shen Tingchen seemed to know which hotel Bai Ruoyi had booked, so he came over directly with her.
Bai Ruoyi muttered softly, "How do you know that I have booked this hotel?" ”
Shen Tingchen glanced at Bai Ruoyi, and secretly said in his heart, I know a lot!
"Who knows how you booked this hotel, I came here just because I stayed in this hotel!"
Bai Ruoyi nodded thoughtfully, "What a coincidence......"
"Tingchen, you're finally back, where have you been? I'm scared to death. ”
The person who came with an anxious female voice was none other than Zhou Qi.
Zhou Qi was shocked when he saw Shen Tingchen hugging Bai Ruoyi.
And Bai Ruoyi was also shocked, she didn't expect to meet Zhou Qi.
Bai Ruoyi always thought that Zhou Qi was dating Shen Tingchen, and hurriedly patted Shen Tingchen's shoulder, the smile on his face was extremely embarrassing, "Now that I've arrived at the hotel, I can come down and go by myself." ”
But Shen Tingchen was like a Buddha statue, not moving at all, no matter how Bai Ruoyi struggled to get around, he just held Bai Ruoyi to death and didn't let her come down at all.
Bai Ruoyi felt that her face was very hot, and she saw at a glance that Zhou Qi's eyes were full of loss.
Bai Ruoyi hurriedly lied, "It's not what you think, I just met gangsters on the road, and they wanted to kill me, so I was scared and fainted." It just so happened that Shen Tingchen came over and saved me by the way......"
As soon as Zhou Qi heard the word gangster, he hurriedly asked Shen Tingchen without waiting for Bai Ruoyi to finish explaining, "Gangster? Are you okay? ”
Shen Tingchen shook his head and glanced at Zhou Qi lightly, "I'm fine, it's her who is injured, I'll send her back to the room and come back to you." ”
Zhou Qi nodded obediently, "Okay, then I'll wait for you." ”
But Bai Ruoyi still saw from Zhou Qi's eyes that she was full of hostility towards herself.
"Don't be reckless if your leg is injured, you think I'm not tired of holding you, don't always struggle down!" Shen Tingchen said like a child.
But Bai Ruoyi felt that this was in Shen Tingchen's mouth, and he had heard touching words.
She thought she had been hiding it well, and when Shen Tingchen came, she just sat on the ground. There were no obvious scars on his legs, but he didn't expect Shen Tingchen to know where he was unwell just by looking at himself.
Although Bai Ruoyi was very moved, she still emphasized that she wanted to come down, after all, Zhou Qi was still standing behind him, looking at the two of them, "You better come down to me, it's no big deal, I can go, and it's already so close." ”
Shen Tingchen didn't speak again, and he didn't bother to talk to Bai Ruoyi.
Just holding her hands, hugging her tighter and tighter, not letting her struggle again, all the way back to her room.
During the period, all passers-by cast wait-and-see eyes, and Bai Ruoyi was a little shy.
She shrunk her shoulders and hid in Shen Tingchen's arms, and her ears were filled with the sound of Shen Tingchen's heartbeat.
The body was surrounded by Shen Tingchen's breath, so familiar and so breathtaking.
And Shen Tingchen has actually been holding back the throbbing in his heart, trying to calm his heartbeat a little.
If Bai Ruoyi finds out any clues, won't all these days be in vain?
No way!
