Chapter 348: Chapter 348: Charge Her with Assault
Xia An’an, clutching her burning cheek, stared at He Rui in utter disbelief.
Tears streamed down like broken beads.
Her mind was blank, just crying incessantly...
As Mo Qingxin seemed to lose patience and turned to leave, she ordered the bodyguard beside her, "Take her to the authorities, charge her with intentional assault!"
When the bodyguard lifted her from the ground, Xia An’an snapped out of her trance, crying and shaking her head, "No... don’t, I don’t want to go..."
Watching Mo Qingxin’s silhouette disappear at the end of her sight, He Rui timely stopped the bodyguard, saying sternly, "Let her go!"
But his words carried no threat at all.
The towering bodyguard shoved him aside and tried to pull Xia An’an away.
"Let go... let me go... I won’t go!"
Xia An’an struggled desperately, screaming desperately, her eyes filled with terror and unease.
Finally, she managed to grab onto He Rui’s sleeve, crying even louder, "Brother Rui... I don’t want to go..."
He Rui grasped her hand in return, trying to pull her over, but the bodyguard didn’t give him the chance, swinging his fist at He Rui’s face.
He Rui couldn’t dodge in time and took a heavy blow to his face, blood trickling from the corner of his mouth.
He wiped the blood from his mouth and swung his fist back in retaliation.
The bodyguard also took a hit, his face instantly bruised.
Fury overtook him, and he fiercely started fighting with He Rui.
"Brother Rui... sob sob..."
Xia An’an cried like a tear-stained figurine, struggling to break free, but still unable to escape the bodyguard’s grip, feeling utterly helpless.
He Rui’s men quickly arrived to help, though they were few, and soon they were overpowered.
In the end, He Rui was knocked down, his face covered in wounds. By the time he managed to get up, Xia An’an had already been dragged into a car by the bodyguard.
He hurriedly chased after them, but the car had already driven away.
Xia An’an leaned against the tightly shut car window, banging on it forcefully while crying and shouting, "Brother Rui... Brother Rui... save me..."
The car disappeared into the distance, leaving He Rui standing there, clenching his fists.
A subordinate, clutching his injured part, asked him what to do. After a few seconds of silence, he spoke, "Send money immediately to smooth things over; if that doesn’t work, then we’ll deal with it."
"Yes."
The subordinate hurriedly drove off following the car.
He Rui returned to his office, briefly bandaged his wounds, and then made a call to investigate Mo Qingxin’s background.
He only knew that Mo Qingxin was wealthy and influential, but not exactly who she was.
When his subordinate reported the findings back to him, he fell into contemplation.
Having a general for an uncle was already powerful, but having another uncle who is the President...
It seems this time, he had crossed someone untouchable!
Now, his enemies were not only Shi Yu but also another formidable and ruthless character!
Just then, someone knocked on the door, followed by a sweet voice, "Mr. He, may I come in?"
The woman knocking was He Rui’s new love interest, the receptionist of Water City, quite beautiful.
But at such times, even if she were Daji reincarnated, she couldn’t arouse his interest because he was utterly preoccupied.
He irritably opened the door and walked out, leaving behind the words: "Don’t come looking for me after this!"
The receptionist was stunned: "..."
Yet yesterday, he was sweet-talking her into bed!
