Chapter 309 - Stab (Part-1) (1/2)
The whining sounds of a woman were heard. Across the street, some rogue men were beating a woman. Some bypassers turned to look at the good show while some did not bother to stop.
”No! Leave me...I didn't do anything. Please...” The woman begged. But it went unheard because of the sound of punches and kicks she was receiving.
Her dirty clothes now had patches of her blood. Her face was covered with blood and water. Bruises were also there.
”You dare to run away!” One of the men said and kicked on her face making her nose bleed profoundly.
People felt pity for her but no one came forward to help her. After all, she was a beggar.
However, Liu Juan was not just anyone. She instantly recognized the beggar. ”Big Sister.” She immediately started striding towards her to save her but Mo Jiang's man, Sun Choi, came in front of her.
Sun Choi was the leader of Mo Jiang's teams. Mo Jiang did not know but he was feeling uneasy today, so he had especially asked Sun Choi to come and protect Liu Juan while he was away.
Sun Choi said, ”Missus, I think you should not get involved in the trivial matters of others.”
”Trivial matter? She is my sister. They are beating her! How can you say it's a mere trivial matter?” Liu Juan asked back angrily.
”I know who she is but you don't want to make the Master angry, especially today, do you?” Sun Choi retorted nonchalantly.
He immediately opened the door of their car for Liu Juan.
”Missus, please sit down. We need to go back. Today is a special day for Little Master, you don't want to ruin it, do you? ” Sun Choi's words were stony as he was not affected by whatever was happening across the street but Liu Juan was not like him.
After all, Liu Ruolan was her biological sister!
She could not turn away her eyes, especially when those men were beating Liu Ruolan so cruelly.
Remembering Mo Jiang's words, Liu Juan resisted herself and sat inside the car.
Sun Choi swiftly sat back inside the car and drove off.
As the car passed across the street, Liu Juan heard Liu Ruolan's screams. ”Help….Somebody...Please help me!”
Those words shook her heart terribly. She clutched her fist tightly to the point that her sharp nails dug into her palms.
She did not want to but her mind was recalling her past with Liu Ruolan. That was how Liu Ruolan was always there to save her when other children bullied her in the orphanage. Sometimes, because of saving her, Liu Ruolan got bullied and beaten up badly by children.
Still, Liu Ruolan never stopped saving Liu Juan. Not even once.
Now someone was beating Liu Ruolan and Liu Juan had turned a blind eye to her sister.
How could she?
Liu Juan's conscience questioned her.
”Wait.” She said abruptly.
Sun Choi did not stop the car but looked at her through the rearview mirror.
”I...I forgot to mention I have a booking in the salon...Turn back to the mall near Little Champ's school.” Liu Juan said as she acted like she was trying to get over from Liu Ruolan's incident.
Her eyes weren't red anymore.
Sun Choi looked at her for a few more seconds while Liu Juan did not look at him. She looked outside the window indifferently.
After a while, Sun Choi turned the car and drove to the mall which Liu Juan had mentioned. After all, he would be with her. She could not run away.
After Liu Juan talked to reception, she walked inside while Sun Choi stood outside on guard.
Unbeknownst to him, Liu Juan did not have any plans to get a makeover. The salon in which she came was shabby where people would get done whatever they wanted for money.
Liu Juan gave a few bucks to receptions and sneakily left the salon from the backside.
The difference between the mall and Little Champ's school was a mere ten minutes walk. Liu Juan ran to the place where those men were beating up Liu Ruolan.
When Liu Juan reached there, she found there was no one. Although some of the beggars were there, Liu Ruolan wasn't there.
People were passing by as if nothing had happened half an hour before.
But Liu Juan was sure that she had seen Liu Ruolan.
She walked towards one of the beggars and asked. ”Where is the girl who was being beaten up a few minutes ago?”
