Su Ding hid behind the corner where the living room met the kitchen, holding her breath, and watched as the two burly men barged into the bedroom with fierce momentum.
They emerged afterward, gradually approaching her.
Su Ding instantly darted out, startling the two strong men!
Before they could react, Su Ding swung the broom she held, striking their shoulders and necks fiercely.
There was an acupuncture point there that could induce dizziness.
The burly men were caught off guard. One felt dizzy, while the other lunged forward.
Su Ding stepped back and hurled a decorative object from the refrigerator at them.
*Bang, bang, bang!*
A thunderous noise echoed on the floor. Seeing that they were still several steps away from her, the burly man reached for a knife from his lower back.
"Who sent you?" Su Ding asked coldly, staring at them.
"Save the crap!"
The burly man spat and lunged at her with a ferocious expression.
Su Ding raised her broom, narrowed her eyes, and fixed on the burly man's movements, preparing to strike a decisive blow!
Not wanting to waste time, the burly man charged forward recklessly, raising his knife to stab Su Ding's abdomen!
Su Ding sidestepped, agilely flipping over the dining table.
She directly circled behind the burly man and, with all her might, struck him hard on the back of the head!
As the burly man’s knife flashed out, his body went limp and collapsed…
The knife clattered to the ground!
Su Ding seized the opportunity, picked up the knife, and pressed it against the neck of the fallen burly man. She then turned to face the other man who had just gotten up.
The man immediately raised his hands in surrender.
At this moment, a knock sounded from outside the door. Su Ding guessed the police had arrived.
"Go open the door!" Su Ding commanded sharply.
The man trembled, seeing the knife in Su Ding's hand already drawing blood from his companion's neck, and quickly went to open the door.
As the door opened, it was indeed the police.
The man's legs suddenly went weak.
The police officer was taken aback upon seeing him. Hadn't the person who called them been a woman?
"Officer, I'm here." Su Ding stepped over the unconscious burly man on the floor and raised her hand to signal.
The police officer was completely stunned.
A woman had subdued two burly thugs in the middle of the night?
They didn't even have to lift a finger?
He immediately instructed his subordinates to apprehend the men, handcuff them, and then come to question Su Ding.
Su Ding briefly explained the situation and escorted the officers to the door.
"Please investigate their connection to the Shao family's daughter, Shao Lin."
"Understood."
After the police left, Su Ding was almost drained of all strength.
Her wrist had been hit hard when she flipped the table, and it was now severely swollen.
However, she didn't have the energy to apply medication. With trembling legs, she walked back to the bedroom to rest.
She collapsed onto the bed and fell asleep…
The next day, before dawn, her alarm clock buzzed.
Su Ding groggily got up, went to the bathroom to wash up, applied makeup, changed into an elegant, sharp, business suit dress, and walked out the door in high heels.
In the taxi, Xiao Yuan's phone rang incessantly.
"Ding Ding, did you see the news about Madam Shao's infidelity and property transfer?"
"Mmm."
"It's all over the financial news and the local trending charts. President Jin was surrounded by reporters right after he was discharged from the hospital today…"
"Oh." Su Ding replied indifferently, then asked, "Are you asking if it has anything to do with me?"
Xiao Yuan hesitated for a few seconds, "Yes."
Su Ding shifted her posture and said calmly, "It does have something to do with me, but you don't need to worry about it. Also, I won't be filming any dramas recently; please help me negotiate with the production crew and advertisers."
Xiao Yuan timidly said, "I'm so sorry, I'll contact the police…"
"It's alright, if it didn't happen at your place, it would have happened elsewhere," Su Ding interrupted her. "Don't overthink it; just focus on your work."
"Where are you now?" Xiao Yuan asked.
"I'm going to handle something big. I'll tell you later. That's all, I'm hanging up."
Su Ding hung up the phone and looked at the Shao Corporation building, which was just ahead. Her blood began to boil.
She stopped the taxi, picked up her briefcase, lifted her head, and displayed a confident, composed smile.
After five years, she had finally returned.
Mother, what you lost, I will take back for you today!
