burst of strength, she was pulled into his arms. His thin lips pressed against her ear, and his hot breath gently puffed on her delicate earlobe.She wanted freedom, she wanted to leave him. This god...Yet she forgot, that even with two sound legs, she might not be able to outrun the men's stamina.

Besides... with a crash, he hadn't run a few steps when his damn legs tripped him up, sending him sprawling to the ground. A dull pain shot through his tailbone, causing Jian Tong to gasp in pain.

"Run Run away," a haughty laugh echoed behind him, mockingly:

"Miss Jian, with only half your body functioning, where do you think you can run to"

Just behave, today brothers are handling things with money. We didn't intend to kill you.

"I just want to cripple all of you."

Take her hand!

Jian Tong gritted her teeth and glared angrily at the thugs approaching her, making a sound like "creak".

"Intentionally harming someone, do you want to go to jail"

"Hey! What do you think of us, huh

"Someone who can afford to cripple Young Miss Jian with a single hand should at least make arrangements for the rest of us." The man took out his phone and glanced at it: "Hurry up, once this is done, we need to get out of here quickly."

Jian Tong understood, these people were truly prepared to disable her hand, and they would leave S city tonight after doing so.

She began to doubt her previous guess. Could it not be Shen Yi

To be able to arrange the aftermath and get these desperadoes to fight with their lives, it wouldn't just take a small sum of money.

At first, she suspected it was someone Shen Yi had sent. The timing was just too coincidental. If Shen Yi hadn't sent her back, she would have taken a taxi or asked someone to pick her up from Old Shen's house. Then she wouldn't have run into this group of thugs tonight.

When Shen Yi sent her back, he let her off on the road between where she lived and her destination. The streetlights were sparse, and there were few people around where he stopped to let her out.

Then, we ran into that gang of hoodlums.

No matter how you look at it, Shen Yi is the most suspect.

But she believed that, by bribing a group of thugs, Shen Yi could make it happen.

But to have a gang of thugs cripple this Jian family chairwoman, this public figure, and sever one of her arms, he would have to make arrangements for these expendable thugs afterward. He'd also have to pay them off. Shen Yi lacked both the funds and the capability to handle all this.

To put it bluntly, Shen Yi doesn't have the ability to pull off such a scheme.

If it wasn't Shen Yi, then who was it

Mr. Shen

No, it won't.

That old man ignored her completely, proud and aloof, a common trait among the Shen family.

After all, who is it

In that instant, Jian Tong's mind was in turmoil, thoughts racing.

She grabbed a stone from the road and threw it at those hooligans. Gritting her teeth against the pain shooting through her leg bone and lower back, she struggled to her feet and limped towards the mouth of the alley, half-crawling, half-running.

"Damn bitch, you don't know what's good for you!"

Along with the curse, Jian Tong's scalp suddenly throbbed, and with a cry of "Ah!", someone pulled her long hair that reached her waist from behind and yanked it back hard.

You guys are being too gentle with her.

You bitch, you dare to attack first.

Before she could speak, a stinging slap landed on her cheek, searing with pain.

"Tsk! What a thing, only bullying women." Jian Tong twisted her neck fiercely and spat viciously at the man behind her who was pulling on her long hair:

"Here!"

She stood tall and righteous, thrusting her hand forward and raising her chin as she bellowed:

"Hit me!"

You're finished! You're defeated! It's your turn now!

"I'll concede defeat if I have to shout!"

What for

What the heck!

Can anyone just hurt her

To say that it's bullying is bullying

Why should she have to endure this

Because she went to jail

Because she had once endured humiliation in silence

Tsk!

She slammed her heel down on the man behind her, crushing his toes. The man let out a roar of pain and fury:

"Damn bitch! You deserve a beating!"

He flung her long hair away with a violent jerk, and with a resounding "slap," he struck her across the face. Instantly, half of her cheek swelled up into a painful lump. She didn't need to look to know that her face would be a mess tomorrow.

That fellow seemed to have brought out the worst of humanity, his eyes glowed like a wolf's, and he excitedly panted heavily: "Bitch—you just deserve it!"

While scolding her, he slapped her face twice.

Several minions came to pull him away: "Big Brother, that's enough. We finished what the…the employer told us to do. We still have to run in the second half of the night. Don't waste time here."

Jian Tong was slapped several times in a row, her head was dizzy and congested, she felt lightheaded, and her ears were buzzing. It seemed like some important information had been missed.

Without thinking much, the gang leader reached out and grabbed Jian Tong: "Fatty, I've got her, so you just swing that club hard against this bone.

"Don't hit her too hard, the employer only wants her hand broken, not her life."

The child's face was as white as paper. Saying he wasn't afraid was a lie.

When faced with violence, who can truly remain indifferent

She was trapped, surrounded by a group of menacing thugs.

For a moment, I was back in that prison.

"Let go...let me go..." Her body trembled uncontrollably, the calmness in her eyes vanishing in an instant, replaced by a frantic and fearful trembling.

"Let me go, let me go!" In the end, she seemed to be in a trance, screaming: "Let go! Let go! I told you to let go! Unhand me! Let go!" She struggled violently, shouting and screaming.

Her hooligans, seeing this, immediately changed color and covered her mouth with their hands.

"Ugh! Ugh ugh!"

She was still struggling violently.

"Be quiet! If you keep shouting, I'll be rude to you!"

"Ugh ugh ugh!" However, Jian Tong seemed to hear nothing of the outside world.

"Big brother, what's wrong with this smelly bitch" the fat man asked in confusion.

"She's having a fit, ignore her! Quickly! Finish what we need to do and let's get out of here! That crazy woman!"

Chapter 295: What is He Protecting Her From

The fat man's blow ultimately didn't land on Jian Tong.

But it landed solidly on a broad back.

The fat man trembled with fright, and the leader of the thugs was also dumbfounded, staring at the person who seemed to have appeared out of thin air. Just now, he had been thrown against the wall by a powerful force. He didn't think much about how the other party suddenly threw him against the wall, he just stared in astonishment at the person who had suddenly appeared, "Who, who, are you"rom the hospital that day flashed before her eyes. She blinked rapidly, trying to force back the stinging sensation welling up inside her with each blink."Big sister, don't be sad. Ashu, Ashu misses b...
