Chapter 2: Please

The door was ajar. They surrounded her, and she fell to the ground, her face full of despair.

“Please, my family is wealthy. You can have as much money as you want.”

“Don’t bullshit me! What kind of money can you make working part-time here? That little money isn’t enough to fill my brother’s teeth. Just think about how to serve your brother well!”

Outside the door, a man passed by.

Shi Ran rushed forward, reached out, grabbed his leg, and clung tightly to his pants. Her voice, choked with sobs, was trembling and soft: “Can you save me? Please!”

Seeing this, the man called Brother Dong paused mid-air, his hand that was about to grab the girl back, retracted awkwardly.

The other men also dared not speak.

The lifeline the girl had grabbed was Lu Beiyan, a man who struck fear into the hearts of the business community in City A.

Seeing that the men seemed afraid of the man in front of her, Shi Ran boldly stood up, clutching his black shirt tightly, leaning against him, large tears falling onto his clothes.

She began with a soft, pleading voice: “Please, save me…”

Seeing Shi Ran’s actions, everyone held their breath, not daring to move.

Everyone knew that Lu Beiyan, the business prodigy and top of City A’s rich list, didn’t associate with women. They were just waiting for the unromantic Lu Beiyan to ruthlessly push this woman away.

At that time, they would definitely make this woman who didn’t know her place pay.

But after a long while, Lu Beiyan didn’t make a move. Brother Dong boldly spoke up: “Mr. Lu, I’m so sorry. My woman is unruly and has offended Mr. Lu. I’ll take her away now.”

He reached out to grab the woman.

Shi Ran was both surprised and frightened. She reached out and directly hugged Lu Beiyan.

A small, soft bundle pressed against him. Lu Beiyan slowly lowered his head. He had only glanced at her briefly before, and her clean face surprised him; he didn’t immediately push away the woman who had thrown herself at him, as he usually did.

Now, looking closely, he found that the girl’s body was trembling slightly, her fair face flushed, her eyes filled with panic, her gaze like a hook, bewildered yet alluring.

Just that one glance, and he felt his heartbeat quicken.

He wasn’t someone who liked to meddle in other people’s business, but the girl was holding him, her voice soft: “Please, please…”

The feeling in his body grew stronger, and his barren heart began to bloom because of this girl.

He glanced at the other men. That one glance was full of pressure, causing the men to take a step back.

The man’s thin lips parted: “Scram.”

Even if they coveted this excellent woman, they dared not snatch her from Lu Beiyan.

They could only generously offer: “Alright, we wish Mr. Lu a pleasant night.”

Shi Ran was saved. Her suspended heart finally settled. She released the man, thanking him: “Thank you, thank you.”

She just wanted to leave this place quickly. After thanking him, without looking at the man’s expression, she turned to leave.

Suddenly, her wrist was grabbed. Before she could react, her body was lifted into the air, picked up.

The scent of sandalwood wafted over, surprisingly pleasant.

But she didn’t care about that. The sudden princess carry made her heart tremble. She said in a trembling voice: “Put me down, what are you doing?”

The man still had that expressionless look, but his gaze towards her had a hint of aggression and unusual emotion.

“Don’t move.”

Don’t move!

How is that possible!

He carried her through a long corridor. They met many people along the way, all of whom made way, their expressions full of surprise.

Shi Ran cried out to these people for help: “Please, help me call the police, please…”

But she didn’t know that this time, no one could save her.

Or rather, no one dared.

Whispers reached her ears:

“Wow, is that Lu Beiyan? Rumor has it that he doesn’t associate with women. It seems that the rumors are just rumors…”

“Oh my god, the woman being held by Lu Beiyan is so lucky. I also want to be held by Lu Beiyan. If I could have sex with him, my life would be complete.”

…

Ignoring her struggles, the man carried her to the top floor in the elevator and opened the door to the penthouse suite with his fingerprint.

He threw her onto the bed.

Shi Ran crawled to the head of the bed, looking at the man in front of her in terror. Here, he seemed to be a powerful figure no one dared to defy.

“Please, please don’t do this to me, please…”

Lu Beiyan tugged at his tie, clearly not intending to let her go so easily.

This feeling was actually quite good…

It made him feel like a man.

He took off his tie, threw it aside, and unbuttoned his shirt as he climbed onto the bed.

“Let me go, okay?”

A man who had never been intimate with a woman, having finally encountered a satisfactory prey, would not let go so easily.

He tore open his impeccably black shirt, grabbed the girl’s delicate, fair ankle, and leaned close to her ear: “Be good~”

The milky scent made his heart flutter. Ignoring the fact that the girl was already crying uncontrollably, he buried himself in her neck, planting one strawberry after another.

So soft.

His eyes shone brightly as he buried himself in her chest, his hand reaching behind the girl’s back, touching a metal button.

His hand didn’t stop, but suddenly, a hard object struck his head. He saw black and white before his eyes.

He supported himself, seeing the girl holding a table lamp, her eyes full of terror, the lamp stained with blood.

Bright red blood dripped onto the dark blue sheets, stinging Shi Ran’s eyes.

She dropped the weapon, covered her mouth, and stumbled back, unable to speak.

She saw the man touch the back of his head, his palm stained with blood.

Slowly, his eyes also began to fill with rage, and he rose, like a lion, walking towards her.

Soon, he was less than a meter away from her, but Shi Ran found that she was too afraid to move, her legs too weak to stand.

Just as she hugged her legs in resignation and shrank back slightly, the lion collapsed in front of her, having lost too much blood.

“Ah!”

The heavy thud against the floor made her scream.

She opened the door and ran out. When she reached the lobby, she anonymously called the front desk. Ten minutes later, she saw an ambulance arrive at the entrance.
