The man in front of him had a sinister and fierce look on his face, with a strong murderous intent in his eyes.
When Lu Qingqing saw this, he couldn't help but take a few steps back and clenched the bag in his hand: "What on earth are you..."
Before she finished speaking, the man raised his hand and strangled her neck instantly.
Lu Qingqing tried her best to pry his hand away, struggled desperately, and uttered a weak voice: "Help...life..."
But it was already midnight, there were no pedestrians on the street, and the surrounding light was dark, so her cry for help was too quiet and had no effect at all.
Lu Qingqing's struggle gradually became smaller and she slowly closed her eyes. Just when she felt that her brain was lacking oxygen and she was about to die, there was a sudden sound of brakes behind her.
The man in front of her gave her a very unwilling look, then withdrew his hand and threw her to the ground, then turned around and strode away, and his figure was quickly submerged in the darkness.
Shen Zixi ran to Lu Qingqing, helped her up, looked at the direction the man left, and frowned: "Are you okay?"
Lu Qingqing coughed violently, her face flushed. It took her a long time to catch her breath and shook her head.
Shen Zixi clasped her shoulders and helped her up: "Stop driving your car. Cancel it. I'll take you back."
With that said, he supported Lu Qingqing and opened the passenger door.
After Lu Qingqing sat in, she covered her neck and breathed heavily.
Shen Zixi went around to the other side, sat on the driver's seat, squeezed a bottle of water and handed it to her.
Lu Qingqing took it, drank a few sips, and coughed violently again.
Shen Zixi patted her on the back, pursed her lips and said, "Did you see clearly the face of that person just now?"
Lu Qingqing held the water bottle and raised her arm to wipe the water stains from the corner of her mouth. It seemed that she had not recovered from the fear that she almost died just now. She said with a trembling voice: "I...I saw it, but
I can’t describe it…”
"It's okay. I'll take you back first and have a good rest."
On the way, Lu Qingqing kept leaning against the window, her eyes closed and her eyelashes moist.
It looked like he was really scared.
Seeing this, Shen Zixi slowed down the car a lot.
Arriving downstairs at Lu Qingqing's house, Shen Zixi said slowly: "We're here."
Lu Qingqing opened her eyes, sniffed, said "Oh" and then said, "Thank you, Lawyer Shen."
After saying that, she opened the car door and went out. As soon as she stepped on the ground, her feet swayed. Fortunately, she quickly held the car door and didn't fall.
Shen Zixi unbuckled her seat belt and walked over to help her: "I'll take you up."
Lu Qingqing nodded and said again: "Thank you."
After getting off the elevator, Lu Qingqing took out the key and opened the door.
But my hands were shaking so much that I couldn't insert the door several times.
Shen Zixi held her hand, took the key, and opened the door easily: "Go in."
Lu Qingqing looked at him, a little stunned for a moment. It wasn't until Shen Zixi's voice came that she came back to her senses and quickly looked away.
Entering the living room, Shen Zixi put her on the sofa, turned around, found the water dispenser, and got her a cup of hot water.
Lu Qingqing held the cup with both hands, her eyelashes half-draped, and drank the water quietly.
Shen Zixi pulled up her pants and sat on the single sofa on the side of her: "Do you want to find a friend to accompany you tonight?"
Lu Qingqing put down the cup, shook her head, took a deep breath, and smiled: "It's okay. Thank you, Lawyer Shen. I'll just take it easy and get some sleep."
"You're welcome. If I took you home directly, these things wouldn't have happened."
Hearing him starting to blame himself, Lu Qingqing couldn't help but open her eyes wide and waved her hands: "No, no, if it weren't for Lawyer Shen, I might just... really thank you tonight."
"You're welcome, as long as you're fine."
Shen Zixi took out her cell phone, flipped through a photo, and placed it in front of Lu Qingqing, "Look, is this the person who attacked you just now?"
Lu Qingqing identified it carefully. Although the light was very dim just now, she would never forget the man's sinister eyes.
Exactly the same as the one in the photo.
"it's him."
Shen Zixi looked a little more solemn and took the phone back: "This person is Zhou Junnian's subordinate."
As soon as he said it, Lu Qingqing understood the reason.
It should be related to the fact that she has been following and reporting on the New Coast project recently.
She frowned and said, "But isn't Zhou Junnian already dead? Why did his men..."
Shen Zixi said: "This person is the most capable subordinate around Zhou Junnian. He is cruel and ruthless. We have been looking for his whereabouts."
After a pause, he continued: "Why don't you stop reporting on this? It's quite dangerous."
Lu Qingqing pursed her lips and looked firmly: "My original intention as a reporter is to tell the public the truth, and even if I don't report it, other reporters will report it. If we all give in because of fear, over time, no one will dare to The truth is revealed.”
Shen Zixi was a little surprised when she heard this and raised her eyebrows slightly, probably because she didn't expect her to say this.
After two seconds, Lu Qingqing looked at him again and said: "Lawyer Shen, you don't have to worry about me. I will pay more attention in the future. According to my investigation, Zhou Junnian and his men are all wanted by the police. He You will definitely not come to me blatantly."
"Since you said that, I won't advise you anymore. If you have anything, you can call me."
With that said, Shen Zixi handed the phone to Lu Qingqing again: "Save your number."
Lu Qingqing was stunned for a moment, then slowly took the phone and entered his number.
Shen Zixi took it back and dialed it for her: "This is mine."
After realizing it, Lu Qingqing took out her vibrating cell phone and glanced down at it.
Shen Zixi stood up and said, "Then I'll leave first. Remember to lock the doors and windows when you go to bed at night."
"Lawyer Shen..."
Shen Zixi turned around: "Is there anything else?"
Lu Qingqing pointed to the wound on his forehead that was about to scab: "Let me disinfect it for you to prevent infection."
Shen Zixi raised her eyebrows and sat down again: "Okay."
Lu Qingqing took out a medical kit from under the coffee table, found iodine and cotton swabs, stood in front of him, and cleaned the wound.
Her breathing and movements were very light, as if she was afraid of hurting her, and they were like feathers, brushing against his eyebrows.
Shen Zixi licked his lips without leaving a trace and looked away.
Soon, Lu Qingqing put a band-aid on his wound: "It's done."
Shen Zixi coughed and stood up: "Then I'm leaving. Goodbye."
Lu Qingqing sent him to the door. When Shen Zixi went out, he couldn't help but said again: "Lawyer Shen."
Shen Zixi turned around.
Lu Qingqing raised a smile and said to him: "Thank you for saving me again."
