A gentle yet angry voice came from behind.
The young boys and girls immediately stopped what they were doing and looked at the heavily made-up girl who was watching the scene with questioning eyes.
Lu Beiyi got off the car with a calm face. With his handsome features and noble temperament, it was obvious that he held a high position.
The girl was a bit scared and asked, "Who are you?"
Lu Beiyi took out his phone and took a picture.
The group of people were shocked and ran away.
Lu Beiyi helped An Ran up and saw scratch marks all over her delicate and fair skin, with bruises of various shades of blue and purple, which was heart-wrenching.
A hint of tenderness flashed in Lan Baiye's eyes. He held An Ran's hand and unconsciously reduced his strength, "Are you okay?"
An Ran shook her head and looked at the broken screen. She stood up with trembling legs and asked in a hoarse voice, "My phone..."
Lu Beiyi picked up the phone, looked at it for a while, and narrowed his eyes, "It can probably be fixed."
What?!
An Ran suddenly looked up and grabbed the man's hand, her clear eyes filled with joy, "Really?"
The soft and boneless touch on his hand made Lu Beiyi's body slightly stiff. He murmured a low "hmm".
An Ran didn't notice. At this moment, her anxiety disappeared, but she felt a wave of pain, causing her face to wrinkle.
Lu Baiye noticed that something was wrong and asked softly, "Does it hurt? Come on, let's go to my place first."
As he spoke, Lu Beiyi took An Ran's hand and put her in the passenger seat.
They arrived at the Lu family's residence. The first thing they saw was an extravagantly luxurious hall, with intricate lighting that emitted a cold, harsh glow. The high walls cast dark shadows onto the soft carpeted floor, and they walked through the spacious yet desolate corridors.
The interior design was impeccable, but the expensive decorations couldn't hide the oppressive and desolate atmosphere of the room. Lu Beiyi settled An Ran in the living room before leaving.
Watching his back as he walked away, An Ran felt a warm feeling in her heart. If it weren't for him today, she didn't know what would have happened to her. Would those people still be acting on someone else's orders?
An Ran's eyes grew cold as she pondered, feeling a chill inher heart. Lu Beiyi returned with a medical kit and sat next to her, examining her injuries. His face darkened as he said, "They won't get away with this."
An Ran thanked him gratefully and asked, "How did you know to come here?"
"I was afraid you might fail and came to clean up the mess for you," Lu Baiye replied as he carefully wiped her wounds with a cotton swab dipped in medicine.
An Ran chuckled at his words, feeling amused.
Lu Beiyi's lips curved slightly, but his brow furrowed as he thought of those people from earlier. "Do you know them?" he asked.
An Ran hesitated, wondering if she knew them. She replayed their faces in her mind, but she didn't recognize any of them. "No, I don't know them. They caught me taking pictures and mistook me for a paparazzo, so they attacked me," she explained.
At this moment, the distance between the two was very close. Lu Beiyi could even smell the sweet scent on the woman's body, which was different from the strong perfume on other women and was exceptionally pleasant, entwining his nerves.
Lu Baiye suddenly stood up, startling An Ran. He spoke apologetically, "I've already applied medicine to your hand. Other places are not convenient. I'll have the servant help you."
With that, he strode upstairs.An Ran felt a bit puzzled. She pursed her lips and looked at her hand, where the ointment for the wound was applied in the shape of small hearts, which was cute.
Soon, the servant came over to help her apply the medicine.
After applying the medicine, Lu Beiyi changed his clothes and came down. He looked at his watch and said, "It's already late. I'll take you home."
An Ran fiddled with her broken phone and looked up at him with an unpleasant expression. "Can you let me stay for a night? I don't want Fu Lengyu to see these injuries on me."
Lu Beiyi pondered for a moment and finally nodded at An Ran's pleading expression.
He turned to the servant standing aside and said, "Prepare a guest room."
Fu's house.
Study.
The man stood tall in front of the window, and his dark and deep eyes were fixed on the door.
The butler trembled as he stood aside. "Mr. Fu, did you call for me...?
"
Fu Lengyu's sharp thin lips curved into a dangerous arc. "What time is it?"
"It's 11 o'clock..."
Fu Lengyu's face was calm, but he seemed to be smiling. "An Ran, you're really daring."
One minute later, at Century Hotel.
The massive flow of cars came to a standstill on the road, appearing like an endless dragon.
The leading Rolls-Royce emitted a cold voice, "Find her."In a moment, dozens of black-clad men got out of the cars and rushed into Century Hotel.
The owner of the hotel was shocked by Fu Lengyu's grandeur. He obtained the news from the manager and immediately appeared in front of Fu Lengyu's car, trembling with fear.Through the open car window, the hotel owner, in his forties, looked respectfully at the man in the car. "Mr. Fu, I don't know what you're looking for this time. Maybe we can help."
Fu Lengyu turned his head, his expression indifferent. "No need. Just cooperate with my men."
Even the hotel owner knew it was not convenient to say anything more. Sweat dripped down his forehead.
In less than ten minutes, Lin, the assistant, walked out of the hotel. He shook his head at Fu Lengyu and whispered a few words in his ear.
Fu Lengyu's icy gaze fell on the hotel owner standing beside him. "Bring her out."
"Yes."
Lin nodded and returned to the hotel. When he came out again, there was a cold-faced woman standing in front of him. It was Tang Yu.
Tang Yu never expected to be dragged out of the hotel by Fu Lengyu. Thinking of what she had done, she was a little flustered, but also a little angry.
However, she dared not provoke Fu Lengyu directly, so she forced a smile and said to him, "Yul, why didn't you call me when you came?"
"Where is An Ran?"
"Her? How would I know!" Tang Yu's eyes were evasive.
Fu Lengyu narrowed his eyes, the coldness in his eyes deepening. Lin Assistant beside him took a sharp breath, silently praying for Tang Yu to tell the truth, otherwise their boss would explode!
Sure enough, when Fu Lengyu heard Tang Yu's answer, he immediately became angry. "Where is An Ran? Don't make me say it for the third time!"
Tang Yu bit her lip, a hint of resentment flashing in her eyes. "Yulu, what do you take me for? How would I know about that woman?"
"Mr. Fu... I think I know where she is..."
The one who spoke was the hotel owner who had been acting as a background wall all along.
In fact, he had already received the news when the group of young men and women were beating up An Ran. If the security measures of such a large hotel couldn't be done well, then the Century Hotel wouldn't be so famous.
However, An Ran had a bad reputation and was not favored by Fu Lengyu, which was a well-known fact in high society. Moreover, those young men and women were not easy to deal with, so he planned to wait and see.
But he didn't expect Fu Lengyu to come here to look for someone so late at night!
How was this not being favored?This was clearly being too favored!
"I heard from the hotel security that she seems to have been taken away by Mr. Lu."
The hotel owner wiped the sweat from his forehead and quietly concealed the fact that An Ran had been beaten up. Joking, if he dared to directly say that An Ran was beaten up here, wouldn't that be the same as seeking death?
Tang Yu crossed her arms and sneered, "Yulu, it's surprising that you came looking for her so late at night. It turns out she went to another man's house, and even more frighteningly, she seduced LuYeBai."
"Shut up!" Fu Lengyu's cold eyes shot straight at Tang Yu, his tone ominous. "Lin Yu, get in the car and go to the Lu family's house."
Lin Yu quickly nodded and got into the car.
Watching the Rolls-Royce's tailpipe disappear, Tang Yu stomped her foot hard.
"Someday, I will make An Ran kneel down and apologize to me." Rolling her eyes to the sky, she thought of the man in the hotel room and quickly turned around, swaying into the hotel.
