Su Ding had absolutely no idea such a thing would happen.
She stumbled backward in shock, but the burly man leading the group was already about to touch her!
She swung the handbag in her hand at the man in front of her and retreated at the same time, putting some distance between them!
"Whose men are you?!"
This kind of targeted ambush was clearly not the work of ordinary thugs.
Su Ding eyed the leading man warily.
The leading man revealed an evil smile, his eyes full of lust, and he rubbed his hands together. "Heh heh, little beauty, it seems you're quite clever. That's right, someone paid us to deal with you."
"We have our professional ethics, so I can't tell you our client's name."
"Unless..."
The man said with a sinister grin, "You spend a night with us."
"Dream on!"
Su Ding snapped coldly, twisting her limbs slightly.
She had learned martial arts. As long as the opponent wasn't armed, ordinary thugs wouldn't stand a chance against her.
Seeing Su Ding's move, the man raised an eyebrow in surprise and said playfully, "Little sister, with your slender arms and legs, don't blame big brother for being rough when we get down to business."
"Haha, this girl is quite feisty, I like it."
"I can't wait to sleep with her, stop wasting time, attack!"
Just as these men were lunging at her, several figures emerged from a small path ahead.
Upon seeing this, the burly men attacked even faster.
Su Ding kept retreating, dodging their attacks, and shouted in the direction of the approaching figures, "Help!"
It was great that someone was passing by.
And those people in that direction did pause when they heard the commotion.
Su Ding glanced in that direction. Under the dim lamplight, the person standing there was actually the one she least wanted to see!
Shao Jun!
Shao Jun was also a bit surprised when he saw that it was Su Ding who was surrounded.
But he also understood Su Ding's current predicament.
Hmph, Shao Xu, let's see you stay arrogant now that you're targeted by thugs.
Meanwhile, Su Ding, after seeing it was Shao Jun, coldly turned her face away and, facing the increasingly dense attacks of the burly men, struggled to resist.
She hadn't fought in a long time, and she was indeed finding it a bit difficult.
But these burly men were even more annoyed!
Damn it, how could this little girl have so much strength, and really seem trained!
He had clearly thrown a punch.
But he was the one who got hit. After several exchanges, he was also panting, his face bruised.
His brothers were in a similar state.
"Damn it, take out your weapons! I'll make sure to finish this little slut tonight!"
On the other side, Shao Jun, after being ignored by Su Ding, whose initial schadenfreude had turned into a flicker of annoyance.
"A Mao, go notify that old cripple that his precious daughter is being beaten up by thugs."
Shao Jun snorted coldly and gave the order.
He figured Su Ding didn't seem like she'd be at a disadvantage anytime soon.
"Let your crippled father save you, hmph, don't say I, your cousin, am heartless!"
As for Shao Zhenggang's home, there were only four servants, and three of them were women. How they would save Su Ding was not his concern.
Then, Shao Jun got into his car and drove away.
At the same time, the burly men finally took out their switchblades and swung them at Su Ding.
Swish swish swish!
The sharp blades cut through the air with a rustling sound.
Su Ding had also expended a lot of energy from the previous struggle. Facing the knives, she became even more vigilant.
Suddenly, the sound of rapidly spinning tires echoed from behind.
Vroom vroom vroom!
"Stop! Stop them! Xiao Xu!"
"I've already called the police!"
Shao Zhenggang, pushed along, roared in anger, especially seeing that the knife had almost stabbed Su Ding's shoulder. His heart tightened in anxiety.
In his agitated state, he struggled to stand up, but the empty space below his knees rendered him powerless.
Anger! Anxiety!
He violently slammed his wheelchair, pointing at the burly men, and said to the three household servants he had brought, "Quick, stop them! Protect Xiao Xu! Hurry!"
How he wished he could protect his daughter like an ordinary father.
But now, he was useless.
He could only watch his daughter in danger, utterly helpless.
The leading burly man was initially somewhat wary of these people, but upon seeing it was a cripple, a skinny man, and two middle-aged women, he let out a cold laugh.
"If you want to die, come on!"
The leading man brandished his switchblade and grinned sinisterly.
These servants had initially thought it was a robbery or something similar, and they had rushed over because Shao Zhenggang had promised them a reward of ten thousand yuan.
But now the thugs had knives, how could they dare...
So, they nervously backed away, none of them daring to step forward.
The leading man seemed to have expected this outcome, his laughter growing more arrogant. "Hahaha, a bunch of losers! Brothers, quickly grab her! It's okay if we stab or kill her, just don't cut her pretty face. My desire is even more ignited now!"
"Save my daughter! Xiao Xu!"
Seeing Su Ding narrowly dodge dangerous attacks time and again, Shao Zhenggang cried out hoarsely.
But all the servants hesitated, afraid to step forward.
Shao Zhenggang understood the servants' concern for their own safety, but at this moment, he was selfish. He only wanted to protect his daughter, the daughter he felt he had failed.
"If you have the guts, attack me, but let my daughter go!"
Shao Zhenggang forcefully turned his wheelchair and, regardless of the consequences, charged at the burly men surrounding Su Ding.
This reckless act naturally drew the attention of the burly men.
"You damn cripple, I'll teach you to get in the way!"
The leading burly man raised his foot and delivered a fierce kick, knocking one of the wheelchair's wheels off.
Shao Zhenggang fell directly to the ground, unable to even get up.
But he still roared with unyielding anger, "If you dare, stab me to death, but don't hurt my daughter!"
The leading burly man grinned ferociously and delivered several violent kicks to Shao Zhenggang's body.
"You old bastard, I'll beat you to death! Damn it! Son of a bitch!"
The sight of Shao Zhenggang being kicked around like this was seared into Su Ding's eyes.
In her desperation, Su Ding kicked away the man in front of her and rushed towards Shao Zhenggang. At that moment, she thought of nothing but getting to Shao Zhenggang.
Then, a wooden stick struck the back of her head fiercely.
Bang!
A sharp pain shot through the back of her head, and Su Ding immediately lost consciousness.
In her ears, Shao Zhenggang's cries still echoed.
What Su Ding didn't see was that just as she fell and Shao Zhenggang was about to be struck, a piercing screech of brakes tore through the night sky.
"Jin..."
Shao Zhenggang uttered only one word upon seeing the newcomer, and then fainted.
The servants stood by, stunned.
They watched as a team of men in black quickly moved against the stunned burly men.
There was no fighting, only a few sharp *shick* sounds. Immediately, the burly men, clutching their severed ears, fled into the darkness, bleeding profusely.
The man leading the group didn't even glance at the servants, seemingly unfazed by the blood on the ground.
"Clean this up thoroughly."
His voice had a unique raspy quality, chilling and mysterious.
He then picked up the fallen Su Ding and placed her in the car. No one noticed the sinister curve of his lips.
