The stern look in Shen Zhuo's eyes suddenly disappeared. He looked back and saw Ruan Liqing standing not far away, looking at him quietly.

The clothes on her body were messy and dirty.

Shen Zhuo paused for a moment, gradually loosened the strength in his hands, and threw Shen Jingheng aside. Then he blinked before looking at Ruan Liqing again.

The dark night was torn apart by the dazzling car lights. Ruan Liqing's expression was very pale. She watched Shen Zhuo walk towards her, walking slowly.

"Why are you here? Are you feeling uncomfortable?" Shen Zhuo stopped in front of Ruan Liqing. He lowered his eyes and looked at Ruan Liqing's face, his eyebrows furrowed.

Ruan Liqing's voice was tight, and her voice was low and soft when she spoke: "Are you going to kill him, and then follow him in to take your own life?"

After she finished speaking, her eyes glanced at Shen Jingheng.

Shen Jingheng's forehead was heavily red, and she was being helped into a sitting position by two police officers.

Ruan Liqing saw the two police officers looking at Shen Zhuo from time to time. It was estimated that if they had taken another step just now, they would have pushed Shen Zhuo in to sit with Shen Jingheng.

Slowly looking away, Ruan Liqing turned around and walked towards Shen Zhuo's car.

Shen Zhuo also walked slowly that way behind her.

As soon as we got in the car, a police officer came over with a notebook: "We still have some records here. Is it convenient for you two to cooperate now?"

Ruan Liqing endured the exhaustion in her heart and was about to nod when she heard Shen Zhuo say: "Sorry, she needs to rest more now. If anything happens, you can ask me, or I will go to the police station tomorrow morning."

Considering that Ruan Liqing had just experienced a heart-wrenching disaster, the police officer didn't say anything and left after agreeing on a time with Shen Zhuo.

As soon as the car door is closed, the noise outside is immediately isolated.

Shen Zhuo was sitting in the driver's seat, bending down to fasten the seat belt for Ruan Liqing. He leaned over and put his right hand across Ruan Liqing's body to reach for the seat belt next to her.

The woody tone on his body penetrated into Ruan Liqing's nasal cavity.

It relaxed her nerves that had been tense all night.

Ruan Liqing closed her eyes and allowed Shen Zhuo to move.

It wasn't until the seat belt was buckled that she said tiredly, "Are you okay?"

Shen Zhuo paused: "What?"

"Your legs." Ruan Li spoke concisely and concisely.

Shen Zhuo's legs have not fully recovered yet. Originally, he had not driven to work recently, but today he drove such a long distance just to come here.

In addition, I was hugging Ruan Liqing just now, so it was inevitable that I would use my legs too much.

When Ruan Liqing asked, she raised her eyelashes slightly and looked at Shen Zhuo through the light outside.

Shen Zhuo looked as usual. He put one hand on the steering wheel, opened the storage box next to him with the other hand, took out a bottle of water and handed it to her: "Cold water, don't drink too much."

Ruan Liqing paused for a moment before reaching out to take it. Then she found that her wrist was so sore that she had no strength at all.

When she picked up the water, her wrists were shaking and she almost missed the catch.

But she quickly covered it up and used her hand to take the bottle of water.

However, just after getting it halfway, the bottle was held by another hand. Shen Zhuo took the water bottle back from Ruan Liqing's hand, then unscrewed the bottle cap with a change of expression on his face, and handed it to her again.

Ruan Liqing understood what she meant, paused for a moment, then took his hand and took a sip of water.

The road in the urban village was not easy to walk and was very narrow, so Shen Zhuo drove very slowly.

There are no street lights around, so it's all illuminated by car lights.

Ruan Liqing was jolting in the car seat until she left that area and got on the highway. Then she glanced outside and asked Shen Zhuo: "You will really come if I ask you to come over. What if there is danger?"

It was already early in the morning, and there was no one on the highway. Shen Zhuo was silent for a moment before saying, "You are here, there is no way I won't come over."

Ruan Liqing didn't speak again until she returned to Shen Zhuo's house.

This sudden kidnapping lasted almost until midnight, and it was already two o'clock in the morning when they got home.

Ruan Liqing calmed down all the way, and her body was no longer so soft.

She followed Shen Zhuo upstairs, then went into the bathroom to wash up without saying a word.

The dirt and dirt on her body made her feel uncomfortable.

The images of Shen Jingheng being beaten kept repeating in his mind, clear and profound.

Ruan Liqing felt an uncontrollable sense of suffocation. She leaned next to the sink and breathed heavily. It wasn't until the stinging pain in her palms that she slowly regained her senses.

It's the wound that will be rubbed on the ground. There is a large one on the palm and wrist.

There are still a lot of sand and stones rubbing between the skin and flesh.

I didn't feel it when I just took a shower, but now I feel my skin throbbing.

Ruan Liqing couldn't help but frown.

The bathroom door was opened. Shen Zhuo stood at the door and saw the injury on her hand at a glance.

His dark eyes looked directly at her palm, and Ruan Liqing couldn't help but want to clench her palm tightly when he looked at her.

However, I heard Shen Zhuo say in a calm tone: "Come out after washing up, the wontons are going to be cold."

Ruan Liqing didn't know when he went to buy the wontons. When she went out, the temperature was just right.

Shen Zhuo went to get a cup of warm water and put it on the table. He said in a light voice, "I'll bandage it after eating."

Ruan Liqing's hand holding the spoon paused for a moment, then she took a breath and said slowly: "Did you just buy wontons?"

It's stuffed with crab roe, she can smell it.

Ruan Liqing hummed, "Luckily, it's open 24 hours a day."

"Did you eat?" Ruan Liqing asked again, "You came to me directly?"

"I can't eat it." Shen Zhuo didn't hide it from her. He picked up a cigarette case from the coffee table and said, "You eat first, I'll smoke a cigarette and come over later to bandage you."

After he finished speaking, he lifted his legs to go to the balcony.

But just as he was about to step out, he heard Ruan Liqing calling him, "Shen Zhuo."

He stopped and looked over.

Ruan Liqing held a spoon in one hand, looked at the wontons with lowered eyebrows, and said in a hoarse voice, "Thank you."

Shen Zhuo's hand on the sliding door of the balcony tightened, and he focused his gaze on Ruan Liqing's back. After a moment, his eyelashes drooped and his Adam's apple rolled up and down: "It's okay."

"Actually, I'm scared. I was wondering if you would come." After he finished speaking, Ruan Liqing continued, "I thought you wouldn't come."

Shen Zhuo looked at her: "I'm sorry for making you scared..."

His words were interrupted, and Ruan Liqing suddenly turned around and looked at him calmly, "Shen Zhuo, the moment I saw you, I was very happy, but also very scared."

When Ruan Liqing spoke, there was not much emotion on her face, but her eyes, black and white, clearly reflected Shen Zhuo's figure.

The fear of surviving the disaster slowly came over her, and Ruan Liqing covered her eyes with her wrists.

And the next second, her hand was wrapped in warm palms.

Shen Zhuo gently took off her wrist, and then pressed Ruan Liqing's head into his arms.

He slowly stroked Ruan Liqing's neck with one hand, as if comforting a frightened little animal.
