Jiang Ciyou has been struggling through thorns these days, exhausted both physically and mentally. The company's new business expansion is at a critical juncture, and every decision is related to the future direction. She must concentrate and dare not slack off. On the other hand, her husband is like a ghost, harassing her from time to time. The bad words on the phone and the sudden blockade at the door of her house make her already tense nerves even more fragile. But even so, she still didn't realize that the deadly danger was like a wolf hidden in the dark, quietly approaching her.

On this day, the afterglow of the setting sun had long been swallowed by darkness, and the city was plunged into a sea of ​​brilliant lights. Jiang Ciyou finished a long and tiring company meeting. The heated discussions in the conference room seemed to still echo in her ears, and various data and plans were intertwined in her mind. She dragged her heavy body, which seemed to be filled with lead, and walked step by step towards the underground parking lot. At this moment, she just wanted to get home quickly, take a good hot bath, and wash away all the fatigue.

In the underground parking lot, the lights were dim and flickering, as if they would go out at any time. The few cars were parked scattered around, casting strange shadows under the dim lights. Jiang Ciyou's high heels stepped on the ground, making a crisp and lonely echo, which kept echoing in this strangely silent space, and seemed particularly abrupt. She didn't notice at all that in this seemingly peaceful parking lot, there were pairs of murderous eyes, staring at her every move through the gaps between the cars.

The killers had been lurking in this dark corner for a long time. Like well-trained hunters, they knew Jiang Ciyou's whereabouts very well. The killer in the lead had a hideous scar on his face that looked even more terrifying under the dim light. He narrowed his eyes slightly, revealing coldness and determination, and whispered to his men beside him: "The target has appeared, get ready to attack." The men nodded one after another, their eyes flashing with greed, as if the upcoming reward was already beckoning to them.

Jiang Ciyou had just walked to her car. She reached out of her bag to take out the car keys and was about to open the door. At this moment, a burst of hurried footsteps suddenly came from behind her. The footsteps were particularly harsh in the quiet parking lot. She subconsciously turned her head and her heart shrank suddenly. Before she could see who was coming, she saw several dark shadows rushing towards her like ghosts. In an instant, fear completely submerged her like a tide. Her heart seemed to jump out of her throat, and her breathing became rapid and difficult.

Jiang Ciyou turned around and tried to run, but before she could take a step, one of them grabbed her arm. The man's hand was like an iron clamp, tightly clamping her, making her unable to move. She struggled desperately, twisting her arm hard, trying to break free from the evil hand, and shouted for help: "Help! Is there anyone here?" However, the parking lot at this time seemed to be cast by a spell by darkness, and there was no one. Her shouts echoed in this empty space for a few times, and then seemed to be swallowed up by the darkness mercilessly, without any response.

The killers dragged her to a van despite her resistance. Jiang Ciyou kicked her feet randomly on the ground, trying to find a foothold, and her nails left marks on the rough ground. Her hand was cut by the car door during the struggle, and blood immediately gushed out, dripping down her fingers to the ground. The bright red blood was particularly dazzling under the dim light. But she still did not give up resistance, and her other hand waved desperately, trying to grab everything around her, even a life-saving straw. Her eyes were full of fear and anger, staring at the killers, as if she wanted to cut them into pieces with her eyes.

"Let me go! What on earth do you want to do!" Jiang Ciyou shouted at the top of his lungs, his voice hoarse with fear and anger.

The leading killer snorted coldly and said viciously: "Don't waste your energy, just follow us obediently to avoid physical pain." As he spoke, he increased the strength in his hands. Jiang Ciyou only felt a sharp pain in his arm, as if it was about to be broken.

Jiang Ciyou was filled with despair, she knew she was in a desperate situation. At this critical moment, Lu Jingchen's figure suddenly flashed through her mind. His gentle smile and firm eyes were like a ray of light, illuminating the dark corners of her heart. She prayed silently in her heart: "Jingchen, where are you? Come and save me..."

However, the killers would not give her a chance to breathe. While dragging Jiang Ciyou, they watched the surroundings vigilantly, fearing that someone would suddenly appear and ruin their good deeds. The door of the van was already open, and the dark compartment was like a giant beast with its bloody mouth opened wide, waiting to devour Jiang Ciyou.

Just as Jiang Ciyou was about to be dragged into the van, she suddenly shook her head with all her strength, and rammed it into the killer who had grabbed her. The killer was caught off guard and let go of his hand, stumbling back a few steps. Jiang Ciyou took the opportunity to turn around and ran desperately towards the exit of the parking lot. Her high heels made a panicked sound on the ground, as if playing a desperate song of escape.

"Chase! Don't let her run away!" The leading killer shouted in anger. His men immediately chased Jiang Ciyou, their figures looking particularly ferocious in the dim light. Jiang Ciyou looked back as she ran, only to see the killers getting closer and closer to her. Her heart sank to the bottom. She knew that her physical strength was almost exhausted in this desperate struggle and escape. If she couldn't get rid of these killers as soon as possible, the consequences would be disastrous.

Suddenly, Jiang Ciyou slipped and fell forward. She instinctively pushed forward with both hands to try to stabilize her body, but she fell heavily to the ground. Her knees and palms scraped against the rough ground, causing a sharp pain and bleeding. She struggled to stand up, but her legs were like soft noodles and she had no strength. Seeing this, the killers showed a smug smile on their faces, quickened their pace, and approached her step by step.

"Hmph, let's see where you can run." The leading killer walked up to Jiang Ciyou and looked down at her with mockery in his eyes. Jiang Ciyou looked at the killer in despair, tears welling up in her eyes, but her eyes were still stubborn. She knew that she couldn't just give up like this, even if there was only a glimmer of hope, she had to try her best.

At this critical moment, there was a sudden roar of a car at the entrance of the parking lot. A black car rushed towards this side like a black lightning. The strong headlights illuminated the entire parking lot, and also illuminated the figures of Jiang Ciyou and the killers. The killers were startled by this sudden change, and they stopped and turned to look at the entrance. Jiang Ciyou also raised her head, and a glimmer of hope flashed in her eyes. She seemed to see a ray of light in the darkness.

As the car got closer, Jiang Ciyou saw the person in the driver's seat clearly. It was Lu Jingchen, whom she had been thinking about. Lu Jingchen's eyes were instantly bloodshot, and his anger overwhelmed him like a surging tide. He saw Jiang Ciyou lying on the ground, surrounded by several ferocious killers, and he could no longer suppress his anger. He didn't have time to think about it, and he stepped on the accelerator and rushed directly towards the gangsters, shouting loudly: "Let her go!" The roar of the car and his roar intertwined, breaking the silence of the parking lot, as if to tear apart everything in this darkness.

The killers were frightened by Lu Jingchen's crazy behavior and didn't know what to do. They let go of Jiang Ciyou and fled in all directions. Lu Jingchen slammed on the brakes, and the tires rubbed against the ground with a harsh sound. The car stopped abruptly in front of Jiang Ciyou. He quickly jumped out of the car, rushed to Jiang Ciyou, and protected her tightly behind him. Jiang Ciyou looked at Lu Jingchen in front of her, and tears could no longer be held back, and burst out: "Jingchen, you are finally here..." Lu Jingchen patted Jiang Ciyou's shoulder gently and comforted her: "Don't be afraid, I'm here." As he said that, he turned his head and stared at the killers with cold eyes, as if he wanted to eat them alive.

Seeing that the cooked duck was about to fly, the killers were unwilling to give up. They quickly adjusted their state and surrounded from all directions, showing their daggers with cold light. The leading killer said viciously: "Boy, don't meddle in other people's business, otherwise you will never leave here alive." Lu Jingchen snorted coldly and responded fearlessly: "Today, no one of you can hurt her." As he said that, he picked up an iron rod on the ground, took a defensive posture, and confronted the killers.

The atmosphere in the parking lot instantly became extremely tense, like a taut string that could break at any time. Lu Jingchen held the iron rod tightly, his palms were full of sweat, but his eyes were extremely firm. He knew that he was facing a group of vicious criminals, but in order to protect Jiang Ciyou, he would do anything. Jiang Ciyou hid behind Lu Jingchen, feeling both scared and moved. She looked at Lu Jingchen's broad back and secretly swore in her heart that if she could escape this time, she must cherish the man in front of her.

The killers looked at each other and took the lead in attacking. One killer waved a dagger and stabbed towards Lu Jingchen's chest. Lu Jingchen quickly dodged sideways and hit the killer's arm with an iron rod. The killer felt pain and the dagger fell to the ground. He covered his arm with a painful expression on his face. Seeing this, the other killers surrounded him and attacked Lu Jingchen from different directions. Lu Jingchen dodged left and right, waving the iron rod in his hand vigorously, and started a desperate fight with the killers.

During the fierce fight, the parking lot was filled with the sound of iron bars colliding with daggers, the curses of the killers, and the roar of Lu Jingchen. Jiang Ciyou looked at everything in front of her nervously, covering her mouth with both hands, fearing that the sound she made would affect Lu Jingchen. Her heart was full of worry, fearing that Lu Jingchen would be injured. However, although Lu Jingchen was agile, the other side had more people and was ruthless, and the situation was extremely unfavorable to him.

A killer seized the opportunity and attacked from behind Lu Jingchen, stabbing him in the abdomen. Lu Jingchen was unable to dodge and was cut by the dagger, leaving a deep cut, and blood instantly stained his clothes red. Seeing this, Jiang Ciyou screamed in horror: "Jingchen!" with tears in her eyes. Lu Jingchen gritted his teeth, endured the severe pain, and repelled the killer with a stick. He panted heavily, beads of sweat rolled down his forehead, but he still stood firmly in front of Jiang Ciyou, telling her with practical actions that he would never back down.

"Jingchen, how are you?" Jiang Ciyou asked anxiously, with tears in his voice.

"I'm fine, don't worry." Lu Jingchen said casually, but his pale face betrayed him.

Seeing that Lu Jingchen was injured, the killers showed ferocious smiles on their faces and attacked more frantically. Lu Jingchen knew that he could not fall down. He took a deep breath, endured the pain in his abdomen, and swung the iron rod again to fight back against the killers. He used the pillars and vehicles in the parking lot as cover, and cleverly dealt with the killers, gradually turning the situation around. The killers began to show fear. They did not expect that this seemingly gentle man would be so brave when he got ruthless. For a moment, they were a little overwhelmed.

At this moment, sirens suddenly sounded outside the parking lot. It turned out that while Jiang Ciyou was being chased, he took advantage of the killers' inattention and secretly called the police. After receiving the alarm, the police quickly mobilized police forces and rushed to the scene. When the killers heard the sirens, they became more and more panicked. They knew that once they were caught by the police, they would definitely not be able to escape the law. Seeing that the situation was not good, the leading killer glared at Lu Jingchen fiercely and shouted, "Retreat!" Then, he hurriedly fled the scene with his men.

Lu Jingchen watched the killers run away, and his tense body finally relaxed. His legs went weak and he almost fell. Jiang Ciyou hurriedly supported him, crying: "Jingchen, how are you? Don't scare me." Lu Jingchen forced a smile on his pale face and comforted him: "I'm fine, don't cry." Jiang Ciyou looked at the blood that kept pouring out of his abdomen, and she was extremely anxious. She hurriedly tore off a corner of her clothes and tried to stop the bleeding for him. Her hands were shaking, and tears kept dripping on Lu Jingchen's wound.

"Jingchen, it's all my fault. If only I had been more careful..." Jiang Ciyou said self-reproachfully.

"Silly girl, how can you be blamed for this? As long as you are okay, I will be relieved." Lu Jingchen said softly, his voice weak but full of love.

The two hugged each other tightly. At this critical moment of life and death, they felt each other's importance in their hearts more deeply. Jiang Ciyou secretly vowed in her heart that she must take good care of Lu Jingchen and let him recover as soon as possible. Lu Jingchen also silently made a promise in his heart that he must protect Jiang Ciyou better in the future and prevent her from being hurt again.

Soon, a police car came roaring in, and the police quickly cordoned off the scene. Medical staff also hurriedly carried the injured Lu Jingchen onto a stretcher. Jiang Ciyou followed all the way, holding Lu Jingchen's hand and refusing to let go. Her eyes were full of worry and self-blame. She watched Lu Jingchen being pushed into the ambulance, and prayed silently in her heart: "Jingchen, you must be okay, you must be safe..." The ambulance honked and rushed towards the hospital, leaving behind a messy parking lot and frightened people. And the story of Jiang Ciyou and Lu Jingchen also ushered in a new chapter after this life-and-death test...
