377 Sincere Absolution
Zhang Wu didn’t dodge the phone but covered his face in pain.
“The men claimed you were theirs, but I insisted that you were my girlfriend. They asked for proof. Otherwise, they will not release you. I already took out my phone, but it was useless. They even tried to confirm the color of your undergarments. I told them the colors, but they still didn’t believe me. They forced me to verify it. What else could I do? There are so many of them. I can’t protect you at all. I had no choice but to do this. I’m sorry. I didn’t protect you well…” As Zhang Wu spoke, he actually started to weep with tears streaming down his face.
He Yeli’s heart ached for Zhang Wu. Yes, what could he do? She was indeed the one at fault. And she even kissed several men in front of her boyfriend. She should be grateful that he didn’t hold it against her. However, she really couldn’t figure it out.
“Even if I drank too much, why would I do such a thing?” He Yeli asked.
!!
Zhang Wu’s face flashed with a trace of guilt. He patted He Yeli’s shoulder. “My dear, I don’t mind. It must be because you’ve been under too much pressure recently, and you’ve been drinking. The alcohol made you act up.”
Seeing that Zhang Wu was still looking for an excuse for her, He Yeli’s guilt deepened. “I’m sorry. I won’t do it again!”
The pain on Zhang Wu’s face deepened.
“I wanted to bring you to the bathroom to wash your face and wake you up. In the end, a young lady took a fancy to the person you kissed. She brought 20 to 30 people, both men and women. I had just helped you into the bathroom when they blocked my way. Before I could say anything, they pulled me away. A few men held me down, and the rest went to hit you! You were drunk and in a daze, so they beat you to death. I kept struggling and even got my head struck, but I couldn’t break free.”
Zhang Wu emphasized, “I even begged for them to hit me instead of you! But they only cared about you. They didn’t pay attention to me at all. They were simply mad at you… In the end, they finally stopped and threw me aside before leaving in a grandiose manner. Perhaps their anger had subsided by then. I didn’t dare to delay your treatment, so I brought you home and helped you apply medicine. It’s just a superficial wound. There’s no internal injury or broken bones. Don’t go out for the time being. After a period of time, apply the medicine properly, and you’ll be fine soon.”

As Zhang Wu spoke, his tears endlessly fell. “I’m sorry. I didn’t protect you well…”
He Yeli’s lungs almost exploded from anger! When had she ever suffered such grievances? She was the daughter of the He family!

On the other side, back in the mountains.
“Brother Wei, the road is getting narrower and narrower. Why do I feel like we’re approaching a dead end? Are we lost?” The triangular-eyed man looked at the pothole-filled road in front of him and fell into deep thought. He kept asking questions.
The man called Brother Wei looked at him impatiently. “Where do you think we should go then?”
“I still think that we must have been tricked by those people in the Anning Mountain Area…” The triangular-eyed man remarked with a complicated expression.
“What reason do they have to set us up?” Brother Wei raised his eyebrows.
The triangular-eyed man scratched his head again. “You’re right. They don’t know us. It doesn’t make sense.”
Brother Wei kicked him again and cussed, “You motherf*cker, are you a broken recorder? You already mentioned it earlier, so why did you have to repeat it? If you don’t know what to say, then shut up!”
The triangular-eyed man felt wronged. He had been kicked by Brother Wei earlier for this reason, and he was kicked a second time for the same cause.
The other people in the car were also impatient and couldn’t sit still.
“Damn it, we’ve come to such a remote place. There’s no signal, and I can’t use the map app on my phone!”
“I really regret taking this job. This road is too f*cking difficult to tread. My bile is about to come out!”
“Don’t f*cking let me catch those two. Otherwise, I’ll definitely kill them…”
“Alright, that’s enough!” Brother Wei glanced at everyone and said coldly, “What’s the use of saying these sarcastic words now? Since we had already come, how could we go back empty-handed? You don’t want the rest of the payment?”
Everyone sighed. They didn’t know how long they had been driving, but everyone was a little drowsy from the wobbling and began to doze off.
