Chapter 1194: Chapter 1194

"This... seems a bit inappropriate." Xiao Zheng said awkwardly.

Although he knew the boss wasn’t a good guy thus forcing Liu Han Yan to act this way.

But as a man, Xiao Zheng really felt sympathy for the boss at the moment.

"What’s wrong with it?" Liu Han Yan glared, "He should count himself lucky I didn’t gouge his eyes out!"

Liu Han Yan explained the previous incident to Xiao Zheng. ɪꜰ ʏᴏᴜ ᴡᴀɴᴛ ᴛᴏ ʀᴇᴀᴅ ᴍᴏʀᴇ ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀs, ᴘʟᴇᴀsᴇ ᴠɪsɪᴛ N0velFire.ɴet

Xiao Zheng let out a deep sigh. The boss’s lechery was obviously wrong, but seeing him rolling on the ground now, it was clear that his balls might have been kicked and burst by Liu Han Yan.

Miserable, so miserable!

Xiao Zheng gulped with a gurgle and instinctively distanced himself from Liu Han Yan.

These days, he was having conflicts with Liu Han Yan; if Liu Han Yan acts impulsively one day and kicks his balls, that would be disastrous.

Although Xiao Zheng was confident in his ability to defend himself, what if?

Seeing the boss’s pained expression made Xiao Zheng feel a chilly fear in his groin.

"Forget it then, with this boss’s behavior, we won’t rent here. Let’s look elsewhere." Xiao Zheng suggested.

Actually, it seems there’s no other option now. After bursting the boss’s balls, wanting to rent his office building was unrealistic.

Liu Han Yan nodded, agreeing with the suggestion.

The boss disgusted her. She felt she’d punished him adequately but didn’t want to continue renting the office there.

Xiao Zheng looked with sympathy at the boss who was still lying on the ground, sighed, and left the office with Liu Han Yan.

After they left, the boss’s expression instantly turned grim.

He struggled to reach for his phone, trembling, and dialed a number from his pocket.

Xiao Zheng and Liu Han Yan didn’t mind, but as they were rounding a corner in the corridor, suddenly a large group of fierce-looking people rushed out.

The group saw Xiao Zheng and Liu Han Yan, and someone shouted, "It’s them!"

Liu Han Yan’s face changed drastically, thinking of how she had kicked the boss’s balls earlier.

Xiao Zheng looked helplessly at the men; they were clearly called here by the boss. For someone who owned such an office building, finding some thugs was trivially easy.

Xiao Zheng was somewhat helpless but didn’t blame Liu Han Yan. The elevator was in the direction of those men, so they had to either take the elevator or the stairs to go down.

Taking the elevator was impossible; although Xiao Zheng believed he could handle it, given the number of people, it was hard to ensure Liu Han Yan wouldn’t get hurt.

So they could only take the stairs.

Liu Han Yan shrank back fearfully, instinctively looking back, her face growing paler.

Because in the direction behind, another group was also charging aggressively.

"Xiao Zheng, what do we do?" Liu Han Yan asked fearfully, shrinking towards Xiao Zheng’s side, her face pale.

"It’s okay, we’ll take the stairs." Xiao Zheng said.

The stairs were right there; although it was quite strenuous to descend ten or so floors, it seemed to be the only option now.

"Okay." Liu Han Yan nodded.

The two immediately turned and went down the stairs.

The two groups of men quickly chased after them. Xiao Zheng discovered something helplessly.

That was, being a man, running away was naturally not a problem for him, but Liu Han Yan was a woman, after all.

Although Liu Han Yan was wearing a pair of casual shoes today, she was just too slow. If she were in heels, it would be even worse.

"You go first." Xiao Zheng suddenly said.

At this rate, Xiao Zheng felt they would both be caught. He was fine, but Leng Ruobing had instructed him to take good care of Liu Han Yan, so he had to do his duty.

"What?" Liu Han Yan was taken aback.

"You’re too slow. You go down first; I’ll hold them off and come down soon." Xiao Zheng said calmly.

Because for Xiao Zheng, this wasn’t a difficult task. Even if these guys caught up to him, with his current strength, he could easily take them all down.

Of course, that was assuming Xiao Zheng was alone. If Liu Han Yan stayed with him, Xiao Zheng couldn’t guarantee her safety in the chaos.

Frankly, Liu Han Yan was like his burden; if she went down first, Xiao Zheng alone would have no problem dealing with these guys.

However, that was Xiao Zheng’s perspective. From Liu Han Yan’s perspective, his actions seemed a bit foolish, yet she was touched.

Despite the conflicts between them recently, it seemed they never had a polite conversation from the beginning until now.

But unexpectedly, Xiao Zheng was willing to set aside past grievances and let her go first in such an urgent situation, which touched Liu Han Yan deeply.

Xiao Zheng wasn’t thinking of these things; he just wanted Liu Han Yan to hurry down and not be a burden to him.

But unexpectedly, Liu Han Yan shook her head and said, "No, I can’t go down. If I go, you’ll be left alone to face them, and you’re not a match for them."

Xiao Zheng’s brow furrowed slightly. "So you think with you here, we’re their match?"

Liu Han Yan paused, then shook her head. "I don’t mean that. But I won’t leave you to face them alone."

Xiao Zheng was somewhat surprised. Liu Han Yan’s behavior was unusual; for a typical girl facing such a situation, she’d be too scared to think clearly, let alone calmly want to face it together.

From that point alone, Liu Han Yan’s character was commendable, and Xiao Zheng always assessed people by their character. So far, Liu Han Yan’s actions had earned his appreciation.

However, no matter what, Xiao Zheng wouldn’t let Liu Han Yan face these guys together with him.

"Go on, hurry, or those guys will catch up soon." Xiao Zheng urged again, already hearing their footsteps.

Yet Liu Han Yan stubbornly shook her head, steadfastly refusing to leave Xiao Zheng behind.
