e black suitcases on the table.Wang Yang was clearly stunned. That kid had really gone all out when he attacked him before, even breaking his nose bone. What was with his attitude todayMrs. Wang didn'...Mark and Zhou Xue looked at each other, the atmosphere suddenly becoming a little awkward.

How is this possible, a non-professional designer, how could they possibly work with them

Lu Ningxi clenched the portfolio in her hand, not feeling ashamed at all.

"Alright, alright, you two gossipmongers, stop it! Since Mr. Sheng allowed Miss Luo to come and work part-time, there must be something special about her!"

Mia's broken Chinese shattered the awkward silence.

She placed her hand on Loning Xi's shoulder and smiled, "Miss Luo, don't mind those two. They are both graduates from prestigious universities and award-winning designers. They value skills above all else."

Lu Ningxi nodded, her clear eyes beautiful. "It's okay, although I'm not a professional designer, during this part-time period, I will also work harder and keep up with everyone's progress!"

As soon as the words left her mouth, Mark and Zhou Xue glanced at Mia before instantly returning to their initial friendliness.

"Mark, 'Miss Luo, what are you saying! We're all colleagues, there's no such thing as holding anyone back!' "

"That's right, we still have much to learn from you!" Zhou Xue said, taking the initiative to step forward. "By the way, Miss Luo, even though you're part-time, Mr. Sheng also arranged an independent office for you. Let me take you there!"

Lu Ningxi was astonished. This group was too wealthy.

She's a freelance designer with her own office

Zhou Xuejian dragged Luo Ningxi toward the office, gossiping as they walked...

"Miss Luo, you were recommended by Mr. Sheng, so you must have met him. Is he handsome It's rumored that he's a super hunk..."

Though they walked far away, their laughter could still be heard.

After the two people left, only Mia and Mark were left in the hall.

Mark retracted his smile, walked to Mia's side, and spoke in English, "Mia, how could President Sheng hire an unprofessional designer Did he make a mistake"

Mia's just-now bright smile vanished the moment Loningxi left, a disdainful glint flashing in her eyes.

"Just a freelance designer, it won't affect us!"

Mark also frowned, "But..."

Mia spoke up, coldly cutting him off. "Even if she has some special purpose, with just her pathetic kung fu, do you think she could defeat me"

Mark paused for a moment, then smiled nonchalantly, "You're right, you're a top-tier designer. How could an amateur like me possibly compare to you"

……

For the whole afternoon, Luo Ningxi was at VIC and also learned about recent projects.

Although it was a part-time job, Luo Ningxi didn't dare to be slack off even a little bit after owing Sheng Zong such an astronomical auction price. Besides, Li Bochen also worked under Sheng Zong. If she messed up, it would definitely affect his impression as well.

When I left the company, it was already dark outside.

The secluded path was eerily quiet. A cool breeze swept through, the only sound being the rustling of leaves in the wind.

Lo Ningxi shrank into her coat and walked towards the station, pulling out her phone at the same time.

The screen was blank, except for a single message from Li Bochen.

"Honey, I have something urgent to take care of today, so I can't pick you up from work. Be careful."

Luningxi originally wanted him to pick her up, seeing this message she could only dispel the idea.

"Honey, I went to the jewelry store today, how did things go on your end..."

The message was only half edited when Loningxi suddenly felt a black shadow flash before her eyes. As she looked up, she saw a roguish man walking towards her, a toothpick in his mouth and his eyes landing on her face with a predatory gleam.

"Beauty, how come you're alone"

Luo Ningxi suddenly felt a chill down her spine.

Back then, on that construction site of the unfinished building, those hoodlums were just like that too!

She backed up a few steps, only to find that her escape route was also blocked when she turned around.

Five or six people surrounded him from all sides, pressing closer and closer, with leering laughter.

"Beauty, walking alone on the road so late, aren't you afraid of meeting bad people"

"Yeah, do you want your brothers to send you home"

As these people edged closer, Luo Ningxi's face grew increasingly grim. "Get lost! I am not someone you can provoke. I advise you to leave now, and I might pretend nothing happened."

"Haha, guys, did you hear that This little pepper actually dared to threaten us…"

Luo Ningxi saw that they were clearly unyielding. Her heart jumped into her throat, and she took the opportunity to slam the bag in her hand against the nearest man's head, then turned and ran.

Running and answering a phone call on the go...

Ring ring ring....

The busy sound kept ringing.

On the deserted and quiet street, echoed the footsteps of Luo Ningxi and her pursuers, in a panicked and disoriented chase.

Thump, thump, thump, like a hammer blow to her heart.

Li Bochen, answering the phone...

Where are you now

I'm in danger...

Lu Ningxi's mind was full of Li Bochen. She had to admit, in this moment of danger, she thought of him like crazy.

Every time before, he had given himself a sense of security...

"Boom!"

However, at this moment, Luoningxi didn't notice a puddle under her feet. Her steps faltered, her body lost its balance, and she tumbled to the ground.

Several men took the opportunity to quickly surround her, grinning menacingly as they dragged her into a dark alley.

"Run! Why aren't you running anymore"

"Haha, just wait, brothers will make you comfortable..."

"Get away from me!" Luo Ningxi struggled violently, her eyes filled with terror, but she desperately tried to calm herself.

No, no, it's very secluded here, few people ever pass by...

They swarmed around her the moment they saw her, as if they had been eyeing her up for a while.

"You want money, don't you I have money, how much do you want, I can give it to you...Don't touch me..."

She had never felt the need to defend her innocence like she did at this moment. She couldn't accept being touched by any man besides Li Bichen.

"With a rip," the man didn't hear her explanation at all, and directly pressed her to the ground!

Even her phone was flung out with a loud slap, and the call to Li Bochen went unanswered!

What can I do Am I really going to fail here today

Li Bochen...he higher-ups have urgently arranged people to investigate."Li Bochen glanced at the contents of the text message, the coldness in his long and narrow eyes deepened, and he clicked on the video.The vi...
