Chapter 358: Chapter 358

Ye Ningbing learned from her conversation with this fifty-year-old woman that her name was Hu Lian, she lived in a small provincial city in Jiaodong, and she had come to Yanjing to find her daughter and son.

Ye Ningbing, who had grown up in Yanjing City, knew the area pretty well, and since the place Hu Lian was trying to find was nearby, the two of them walked through the streets and alleys without much effort and soon arrived at Xinghe Road.

"Aunt Hu, this is Xinghe Road, and number thirty-eight is at the end of this street. If you walk along this road, you should be able to find it," Ye Ningbing said to Hu Lian.

"Thank you so much, young man. Without your help, I might have had to spend the night on the streets. Now that we are right at the doorstep, why don't you come over for a drink of water? Also, I want my son to thank you properly," Hu Lian said.

Ye Ningbing shook her head slightly. "I merely led you here and really didn't help all that much. There's no need for thanks. I have other matters to attend to, so I'll be leaving now."

Seeing Ye Ningbing about to leave, Hu Lian hurriedly said, "Young man, it's not much farther. What if I get to my place and my son and daughter aren't home? You could still help me make a phone call or something... I'm a stranger in Yanjing and don't know anyone here. Please, finish what you started."

Ye Ningbing looked at the pitiful state of Hu Lian. She should be able to find her own home from here, and even if her son and daughter were not at home for the moment, they were bound to return eventually.

Although Ye Ningbing didn't really want to accompany Hu Lian, seeing her pleading expression made it hard to decline.

"Alright then, I'll take you there," Ye Ningbing nodded. After all, it wasn't much further to number thirty-eight.

Seeing Ye Ningbing agreeing to take her along, a slight and undetectable smile flashed across Hu Lian's lips. "Thank you, young man. It's hard to find kind-hearted people like you nowadays. I'll make sure my son gives you a proper thanks later."

Ye Ningbing then walked with Hu Lian along the road. Soon, the two of them arrived at number thirty-eight.

It turned out to be an auto repair shop.

A large iron curtain was drawn, preventing any view of the inside.

Ye Ningbing ended up knocking on the door with Hu Lian. Before long, they heard noises from inside. The iron curtain was lifted, and a burly man stepped out.

The man had tattoos on his body, a big gold chain around his neck, and a fierce appearance; it was clear he was not to be trifiled with.

"Aunt Hu is here looking for her children..." New ɴᴏᴠᴇʟ ᴄhapters are published on 𝘯𝘰𝘷𝘦𝘭•𝘧𝘪𝘳𝘦•𝘯𝘦𝘵

Before Ye Ningbing could finish, the burly man suddenly grabbed her arm and then exerted his strength fiercely.

Ye Ningbing stumbled and was thrown straight into the repair shop by the burly man.

"You..." Ye Ningbing didn't expect him to suddenly get violent. Just as she tried to scream, two other men from inside the shop quickly came over and sealed her mouth with clear tape.

No matter how much Ye Ningbing tried to call out, no one could hear her.

At that moment, Aunt Hu, who had previously asked for directions, and the burly man walked into the repair shop, and the large iron curtain outside was slowly closed again.

By this point, even if Ye Ningbing was naive, she understood that she had been tricked.

Two people came from the left and right, dragging Ye Ningbing onto a sofa inside. They then used clear tape to tie her hands and feet tightly behind her back.

"Aunt Hu, you've brought in a good catch today..."

The burly man licked his lips, his eyes seemingly unable to leave Ye Ningbing as if he couldn't pull them away.

"This girl is still a virgin," Hu Lian said emotionlessly as she looked at Ye Ningbing.

At this time, there wasn't a trace of helplessness on Hu Lian's face.

The burly man's eyes lit up. "Aunt Hu, are you serious?"

Hu Lian huffed. "I can tell if a woman is a virgin with just a couple of steps in front of me. If I couldn't do that much, how could I make it in this business?"

The burly man laughed on the side. "Of course, we all know about Aunt Hu's skills."

"Take this woman inside and start the process..." Aunt Hu clapped her hands and ordered.

At that moment, a man dressed like a doctor, wearing a white coat, pushed a small cart and entered a room on the side.

Seeing this scene, a look of horror crossed Ye Ningbing's face.

She had heard of a gang in Yanjing that deceived passersby to harvest their kidneys... The cart the 'doctor' had pushed earlier was loaded with surgical equipment.

A wave of despair hit Ye Ningbing at the realization she had encountered these utterly conscienceless people.

Ye Ningbing struggled and yelled, but with her mouth covered, all that emerged were muffled sounds.

"Aunt Hu, this little girl is a fine piece. Seems a shame to just take her kidney like that..." The burly man said lecherously on the side. "How about we let the brothers have a taste first?"

Hu Lian glanced at the burly man. "I knew you guys wouldn't be able to contain yourselves after seeing this girl. Alright, since you've been doing a good job recently, let the girl be yours to enjoy first."

The burly man's face showed delight. "Much obliged!"

With that, the burly man excitedly approached, picked up Ye Ningbing, and dragged her small frame towards the back room.

Ye Ningbing desperately kept staring at her legs, knowing all too well what the man intended to do. By dragging her away, her chastity was surely doomed.

To a woman, chastity is akin to a second life, especially for Ye Ningbing. If she lost her virtue here today, she would truly be better off dead!

Ye Ningbing struggled to break free, but the burly man was extremely strong, making escape seemingly impossible. She wanted to cry for help, but her mouth was muzzled at that moment.

Now, Ye Ningbing was truly in despair, as weak as a chick in the hands of the sturdy man. Anticipating the **** that awaited her, tears uncontrollably streamed down her face.

"Let go of that woman," a voice suddenly rang out.

The sound came so abruptly that everyone present was startled, and the hefty man stopped dragging Ye Ningbing into the room. He looked towards the source of the voice.

There, in the corner of the room, unnoticed until now, stood a person.

He was a tall man with an extremely delicate face, exuding an irresistible charm and heroic aura, a supremely handsome man.

Ye Ningbing looked at the newcomer, someone she didn't recognize. However, she could tell from his words that he was probably there to save her.

Ye Ningbing cried out incoherently, like a drowning person clutching at a lifeline, frantically pleading with the new arrival for help.

"Lao San, I was just praising you guys for your good work recently, but what is this?" Hu Lian said with displeasure. "There was someone lying in ambush in the store, and you all were clueless."

To Hu Lian, the sudden appearance of the handsome man implied he had been lying in ambush in the store. She had not noticed any strangers when she entered, and now one had miraculously appeared.

If he wasn't lying in ambush, could it be that he was capable of "spells" and came through the walls?

"Damn it, Monkey, you guys kill her for me!" the burly man, irked by Hu Lian's implied scolding, shouted.

Upon the burly man's command, four other men armed with steel pipes and cleavers stepped forward.

These four men, with murder in their eyes, directly surrounded the handsome man.

"****, you dare to act tough on my turf, brothers kill him and tear out this idiot's guts while you're at it," the burly man said coldly.

Ye Ningbing was thrown to the ground by the sturdy man.

Seeing the four men encircle the handsome man, she couldn't help but grow anxious for his safety.

The handsome man appeared rather slender, but these villains were not only big and burly; they were also armed.

They would easily overwhelm him if they all attacked at once.

As Ye Ning was worrying over the handsome man, the four thugs had already begun attacking him with their iron rods and cleavers.

The sturdy man snorted coldly. Then, addressing Ye Ningbing, who was cowering on the ground, he said, "Don't even think about someone coming to save you. Just watch how he dies!"

Before the burly man could finish speaking, the four ruffians charging at the handsome man to teach him a lesson were suddenly blown away, flying back simultaneously.

The four men fell to the ground in a sorry state, all dropping their weapons, convulsing uncontrollably on the floor and seemingly unable to get up for the moment.

"Holy ****!" The burly man was instantly stunned.

He knew very well the capabilities of his subordinates.

These were vicious and ruthless men, each skilled in combat…

Yet, these henchmen, the pride of the burly man, were flipped over in the blink of an eye by the handsome man.

Moreover, he couldn't even see how the handsome man had moved.

Ye Ningbing, crouching on the ground, had her eyes wide open in shock. The handsome man's movements were wide and fluid, effortlessly elegant.

Fighting could be done so stylishly!

At this moment, Hu Lian's brows were tightly furrowed. The man's prowess filled her with dread.

"Lao San, kill him!" Hu Lian ordered the burly man.

Looking at the handsome man opposite him, the burly man felt genuinely intimidated. Knocking out four men with a single move – that level of combat skill was something he couldn't match.

"What's the matter? Lao San, did you not hear what I said?" Hu Lian asked.

Only then did the burly man reluctantly pick up a cleaver from the ground.
