Her shouts immediately drew the attention of the crowd, and the frightened girl who had been targeted gave the man a slap. “You hooligan!”
The man instantly became angry and raised his other hand to hit An Chenmeng, but before his hand could land, it was caught by a delicate hand.
It was Leng Xiaoyao.
Both of the man’s hands were caught, so he became flustered. Especially when he met Leng Xiaoyao’s cold eyes, he couldn’t help but break out in a cold sweat.
“This isn’t the first time you’ve done something like this, is it? I wonder how many of these types of photos are in your phone!” Leng Xiaoyao said as she snatched the man’s phone away.
The man panicked and tried to grab it back, but he couldn’t move his hands.
Because the phone was still unlocked, Leng Xiaoyao directly took a look.
As she suspected, there were indeed many indecent videos and photos in the phone.
Without looking too closely, Leng Xiaoyao turned even colder as she looked at the man. Her voice was filled with a thick chill. “Be quiet, or I might accidentally break your hand. I won’t need to take responsibility for that.”
Saying that, Leng Xiaoyao tightened her grip on the man’s wrist. The man was too scared to move.
People around them were impressed by Leng Xiaoyao and An Chenmeng’s bravery. They didn’t expect two young girls to dare to stand out.
In fact, An Chenmeng wasn’t the first one to notice what was happening, but no one wanted to get in trouble, so nobody said anything.
Because they needed to take the suspect to the police station, they got off when the subway stopped.
The subway staff saw them catch someone and came over to ask what happened. After Leng Xiaoyao explained, they immediately called the police. They only needed to wait for the police to arrive, then they could leave.
After about ten minutes, the police arrived. Leng Xiaoyao handed over the suspect and explained what had happened on the subway. The suspect was taken away, and they didn’t need to go with them. They could just wait for the subway to arrive and leave.
“An Chenmeng, you are quite brave. If the boss wasn’t here, you would have suffered.” After the drama, Xiong Manxin scolded her. It wasn’t that she was blaming her for causing them trouble, but that what she did was too dangerous.
An Chenmeng felt embarrassed and said, “I just couldn’t stand it!”
“Being brave is a good thing, but one should know their limits. If you don’t have the ability to retreat safely, don’t get involved. Although being indifferent may make you feel guilty, it’s your parents who will be sad if something happens to you, not others. Do you understand?” Leng Xiaoyao said seriously.
If Leng Xiaoyao wasn’t sure that she would be safe, she wouldn’t easily stand out unless she was left with no choice.
“I know.” An Chenmeng and the others nodded in agreement.
The subway they were on didn’t go directly to their destination. They needed to transfer at a certain station to reach the subway station near Hanlin Manor.
When they arrived at the station closest to Hanlin Manor, they still had to walk five hundred meters and cross a zebra crossing before reaching the gate of Hanlin Manor.
After entering Hanlin Manor, there were sightseeing cars available because walking was still a considerable distance.
“Hanlin Manor is indeed a high-end block. It’s completely different,” Wu Minmin said. Although their families also lived in luxurious houses, they were still incomparable to Hanlin Manor.
“I dare not even think about living in Hanlin Manor. I’m afraid of living alone in such a big house. If I can only come to the capital city to study, I’ll buy a two-bedroom apartment or a single apartment,” An Chenmeng said.
“I also want to come to the capital city to study, but I don’t know how well I will do on the exam. Anyway, I don’t want to live on campus no matter where I go, so my family will have to buy me a single apartment,” Xiong Manxin said.
“I dare not think so much about it. I’ll just see when the time comes,” Tong Xiaobei said. She had no confidence in herself when it came to whether she could get into a college or not.
“Boss, do you want to buy a car?” Xiong Manxin asked.
“I do, but I don’t have a driver’s license yet!” Leng Xiaoyao didn’t realize the importance of having a driver’s license till this moment.
“What? Boss, you don’t have a driver’s license?” Xiong Manxin was surprised. After all, Leng Xiaoyao was so skilled in racing, but it turned out that she didn’t even have a driver’s license.
“I’ll take the test when I have time!” Leng Xiaoyao said. Even though she was skilled at driving, she couldn’t drive without a license.
…
Li Mochen had been waiting for Leng Xiaoyao at Wu Wenshi’s former house and had been standing outside looking in their direction until he saw her and the others come over.
However, when Leng Xiaoyao came over, he felt nervous and hesitant and didn’t dare to show up until he heard Leng Xiaoyao greet him.
“Hi, Brother Mochen.”
Leng Xiaoyao felt Li Mochen was at the opposite door when she got out of the sightseeing car. Thinking that he might have seen that they were all girls and didn’t want to show up, she called out directly.
Li Mochen had no choice but to appear when Leng Xiaoyao called out to him.
When Leng Xiaoyao saw Li Mochen, she smiled brightly at him, which dazzled him and made his heart beat faster.
Li Mochen didn’t come over. He just stood outside the door and greeted them. “Nice to see you all.”
Xiong Manxin, An Chenmeng, and Wu Minmin had all met Li Mochen before, so they were surprised to see him here.
“Jesus! Mr. Li just lives across the street? Wait a second, boss, didn’t you say that Mr. Li sold you this house?” Xiong Manxin was a bit confused.
Before Leng Xiaoyao could explain it, Li Mochen opened his mouth. “I bought this one.”
Leng Xiaoyao was genuinely surprised. He sold his own house to her and bought Wu Wensi’s instead. Why didn’t he just let Wu Wensi sell the house to her in the first place? It would have saved the hassle of transferring ownership twice.
“Is it to enjoy the benefits of a favorable position?” An Chenmeng joked.
Because Leng Xiaoyao had previously given them the impression that she and Li Mochen were interested in each other, they had always thought that there was something between them. Now that he had bought the house across from Leng Xiaoyao’s, it seemed like he was trying to get closer to her.
Upon hearing that, Li Mochen felt his ears burning for the first time and became a bit embarrassed as he looked at Leng Xiaoyao. “Well, I have some things to deal with, so I can’t bother you furrher. Let me know if you need any help.”
Saying that, he glanced at Leng Xiaoyao before turning and walking inside his house.
“Boss, why do I feel like Mr. Li is shy? Could it be…” An Chenmeng said.
Leng Xiaoyao also found it strange, but just shrugged her shoulders at everyone. “I didn’t notice.”
