When he arrived at Ran Qiuye's door, he saw that it was ajar and the interior was in a mess, as if it had experienced a fierce conflict. He went in quickly, feeling even more anxious.

"Ran Qiuye!" he shouted loudly, looking for her everywhere.

Suddenly, he heard noises and crying coming from downstairs. He immediately ran to the window and saw a man forcibly dragging a woman towards the car downstairs.

The woman's figure was unclear, but judging from her hair color and clothes, it was most likely Ran Qiuye! Xu Mingjie's heart tightened, and he rushed out the door without hesitation and ran downstairs.

He had no time to think and could only chase after her instinctively. When the man saw Xu Mingjie chasing him, he immediately quickened his pace and dragged Ran Qiuye towards a black car parked on the street.

"Ran Qiuye!" Xu Mingjie shouted again, hoping to attract her attention and let her break free.

Ran Qiuye heard Xu Mingjie's voice, and she raised her head sharply, her eyes full of despair and pleading. Her hands kept struggling, but the man was so strong that she could hardly get rid of his control.

"Let her go!" Xu Mingjie's voice was filled with determination and anger. He quickened his pace and approached the man step by step.

The man stopped immediately after hearing this, turned around, and said with a sinister smile: "Who are you? Get lost! This has nothing to do with you."

"Let her go!" Xu Mingjie repeated again. He had already come to the man's side, ready to rescue Ran Qiuye.

Seeing that the situation was not good, the man pushed Ran Qiuye away and quickly rushed towards Xu Mingjie. The two began a fierce fight on the street. The pedestrians around were startled by the sudden fighting and stopped to watch.

Although Xu Mingjie was quite skilled, the opponent was clearly well prepared, with fierce moves and each strike hitting the vital points. He tried his best to cope with it, but gradually found himself at a disadvantage.

Ran Qiuye was extremely anxious when she saw this scene. She tried her best to stop it, but was blocked by the crowd around her. Her eyes were full of helplessness and guilt, because she knew that the root of all this was because of her past.

Suddenly, Ran Qiuye saw an opportunity. She rushed over desperately, picked up a stone on the ground, and smashed it hard on the man's head.

"Let him go!" Her voice was filled with despair and anger, but her actions showed the courage and determination deep in her heart.

The man was hit by the stone, covered his head in pain, and lost control of Xu Mingjie. Xu Mingjie saw the opportunity and kicked the man to the ground with a whirlwind kick, then quickly rushed to Ran Qiuye.

"Are you okay?" he asked anxiously, his eyes full of worry.

Ran Qiuye shook her head, tears streaming down her face: "I... I'm sorry, Mingjie. All this is because of me..."

Xu Mingjie hugged her tightly and comforted her, "Don't be afraid, everything will be fine. Let's go first, it's not safe here."

They left the scene in a hurry, and the crowd around them talked about it. Along the way, Ran Qiuye lowered his head, his heart full of guilt and self-blame.

"I'm sorry, Mingjie, I'm scared... I don't want to implicate you anymore." She said softly.

Xu Mingjie and Ran Qiuye hurriedly left the fight scene, passing through the noise of the crowd, with mixed emotions in their hearts. They came to a nearby cafe and found a corner to sit down.

Ran Qiuye remained silent, her eyes full of guilt and uneasiness. Xu Mingjie looked at her, feeling distressed, but more worried and helpless.

"Ran Qiuye, what happened to you?" Xu Mingjie's voice was filled with deep worry. He needed to know the truth.

Ran Qiuye sighed tremblingly and said with difficulty: "That person is my past... my ex-boyfriend."

Xu Mingjie frowned, and the speculation and worry in his heart became stronger: "Your ex-boyfriend? Why would he do this? Why did he drag you away?"

Ran Qiuye bit her lip and explained with difficulty: "He...he thought I betrayed him. After we broke up, he has been dissatisfied with me. Yesterday he suddenly found me and said he wanted to talk to me, but I didn't want to see him."

When Xu Mingjie heard this, his doubts gradually cleared up. He understood some things, but still found it incredible: "Why does he think you betrayed him? Does this have anything to do with whether you told me?"

Ran Qiuye lowered her head, tears falling: "He misunderstood... I did not tell you at the time, but I think this is a private matter in my past and has nothing to do with you."

Xu Mingjie felt angry, but he knew that now was not the time to lose his temper, so he calmed down: "Ran Qiuye, no matter what happens, I will not leave you. But we have to face the reality. He knows you are here and will come to you again in the future."

Ran Qiuye nodded tremblingly. She understood that the current situation was very dangerous: "I know... I was scared too. I'm sorry, Mingjie, I didn't tell you."

Xu Mingjie held her hand and comforted her: "Don't be afraid, I will protect you. We must take action and not let him come to you again."

They decided to go to the police station to report the case and seek police protection. Xu Mingjie contacted the police station by phone and briefly explained the situation. The police immediately sent someone to pick them up and they were taken to the police station.

At the police station, Xu Mingjie and Ran Qiuye described in detail what happened last night, including Jia Dongxu's appearance and the man's attack. The police listened to their statements and promised to increase police force to protect Ran Qiuye and investigate the man's whereabouts.

"Sir, we will deal with this matter as soon as possible." A police officer said, looking at Xu Mingjie and Ran Qiuye seriously.

Ran Qiuye quietly thanked the police for their help, her face still showing worry and concern. Xu Mingjie held her hand tightly and comforted her silently.

After leaving the police station, they decided to go home and rest, waiting for further news from the police. Xu Mingjie took a temporary leave and stayed by Ran Qiuye's side to ensure her safety.

As the days passed, Ran Qiuye seemed to have calmed down, but she still felt uneasy from time to time. Xu Mingjie stayed by her side, always alert to her every move.

During this time, they gradually sorted out their relationship with each other. Xu Mingjie decided to accept Ran Qiuye's past and protect her more firmly. No matter what happened, he would not give up.

One afternoon a week later, Xu Mingjie and Ran Qiuye were resting at home. Suddenly, the doorbell rang, breaking the calm atmosphere. Xu Mingjie immediately became alert and walked to the door cautiously.

When I opened the door, I saw a young police officer in uniform. He said in a serious tone, "Hello, I'm Officer Wang from the police station. We have some important progress and need to discuss it with you."
