Yemei didn't understand why Zhang Qiu would suddenly kick someone's car door, and she asked in surprise, "Zhang Qiu, why did you...?"
Before she could finish her question, she felt her body tilt, as Zhang Qiu suddenly pulled her and stepped forward, shielding her behind him.
At that moment, a person got out of the passenger side of the car, pointing at Zhang Qiu and cursing, "What the hell is wrong with you! Why did you hit someone?"
"I have my reasons!" Zhang Qiu said coldly.
To most people, it looked like Zhang Qiu had inexplicably rushed over to kick the car door, and the two people about to get out of the car were knocked around by the door. Clearly, Zhang Qiu was in the wrong.
But Zhang Qiu knew that when those two opened the car doors, they were already preparing to pounce on Yemei. Their hands were already reaching out, and their feet were ready to move, their posture clearly not that of normal people getting out of a car. Zhang Qiu could still make this judgment.
If they had really pounced and grabbed Yemei, the consequences would have been unimaginable.
Ordinary people, without any preparation or such keen observational skills, would naturally not notice such details. This is why many car abduction cases have a very high success rate.
Fortunately, Zhang Qiu had near-national-level observational abilities, allowing him to detect danger in the smallest details. As the others launched their attack, he also counterattacked, using his superhuman physical abilities and ghostly speed to strike first.
However, all of this, from judgment to action, happened in an instant, and ordinary people could not understand Zhang Qiu's motives for hitting someone. Of course, if he didn't have such a quick reaction time, even if he saw their movements, he wouldn't have been able to save Yemei.
"You're so arrogant after hitting someone! This is malicious assault, I'm calling the police! You better not run away!" The person said while checking on the two companions who had been knocked over by the car door.
At this moment, Zhang Qiu turned his head to Yemei and said, "Call the police and tell them someone is trying to kidnap you." As he spoke, his peripheral vision remained on the person who had gotten out of the passenger side.
"Wh-what?" Yemei was stunned, her mind not processing the situation.
As Zhang Qiu was speaking, the person who had gotten out of the passenger side quickly helped the two companions who had fallen by the car door into the car, and then he himself was about to get in.
At the same time, the car had already started moving. Zhang Qiu realized it was bad and immediately jumped, reaching the side of the car and kicking the door again.
However, the car suddenly sped away, and Zhang Qiu's kick missed the door and hit the rear of the car instead.
This kick was extremely powerful, using almost all of his explosive strength. The car body was pushed down by the force.
At that moment, the car was already speeding forward. In its high-speed movement, it was hit by Zhang Qiu's well-timed kick, causing the car to swerve and crash into the sidewalk barrier.
Fortunately, the car had just started, and its kinetic energy was insufficient. The collision only caused the engine to stall, and the front of the car was slightly dented. The people in the car only experienced a slight jolt and were not injured. After a brief pause, the driver restarted the car, reversed, and turned, successfully driving away.
The car and the people in it were unharmed, but Zhang Qiu's leg was in trouble. Because of the excessive force of the kick, although he managed to make the car swerve, his leg and foot were severely jolted and felt numb.
Seeing the car start, reverse, and drive away, Zhang Qiu no longer had the strength to chase after it. The feeling of being able to see clearly but unable to stop it made Zhang Qiu truly frustrated.
Now even Yemei realized that something was wrong with the car. Then Zhang Qiu saw her expression change, and she let out a scream.
Zhang Qiu thought she had finally realized the danger and was now scared, but her reaction time was a bit too long.
Her scream also reminded him of Xiang Yufei's reaction in the silent nightclub. His heart softened.
He thought that this was a time when a girl needed comfort, so he decided to be a good Samaritan. Imagining the scene of comforting Xiang Yufei, he took the initiative to hug Yemei.
She screamed again.
Sigh, she's still quite scared!
Zhang Qiu couldn't see her face, but hearing her scream, he sighed and patted her back, even stroking it like petting a cat, just as he had done with Xiang Yufei.
Because they were so close, Yemei's unfamiliar but pleasant scent wafted into his nose. At this moment, Zhang Qiu realized that he had hugged a girl he wasn't very familiar with, a clear and beautiful girl. His hand, which was stroking her back, began to tremble.
This was excitement, nervousness, and also fear. After all, she wasn't Xiang Yufei. And he had hugged her too quickly, which seemed almost like taking advantage of the situation. This would only solidify his reputation as "Scum Qiu."
He hadn't expected to hug Yemei like this. What should he do next? If she got angry, how would he handle it? The more he thought about it, the more he trembled, and he didn't dare to think further.
At this moment, Yemei suddenly asked, "Zhang Qiu, why did you suddenly hug me?" It turned out that her second scream was because she was startled by Zhang Qiu's hug.
Zhang Qiu was startled by her question. His already trembling hand, which was trembling due to his unease, slipped down her back as if he had done something wrong.
This slip was even worse. Zhang Qiu felt his hand land on a soft, raised part of her body, and he instinctively squeezed it.
Suddenly, he felt a strong push, and due to his guilt, he didn't resist and was pushed away.
Yemei straightened her clothes, looking around, not daring to look at Zhang Qiu. But Zhang Qiu noticed that her face had turned a rosy pink, which was quite cute.
"Um... that... I didn't mean to... I just thought you were scared... so..." Zhang Qiu stammered.
Hearing his explanation, Yemei finally gathered the courage to respond, "I wasn't scared at all! They're gone, what do I have to be afraid of? I just suddenly remembered something."
"Um..." Zhang Qiu wished he could find a hole to crawl into. He had really embarrassed himself, treating a girl he had just met like a close friend. Even if she had been scared, it wouldn't have been appropriate for him to hug her.
In that moment, Zhang Qiu thought Yemei had realized she had almost been kidnapped and was still scared, and he remembered Xiang Yufei, who had also been frightened by criminals, so he used the same comforting technique.
But once he hugged her, he realized something was wrong, but he didn't know how to end the awkward situation, so he just maintained the position. It wasn't until Yemei pointed it out that he realized how embarrassing it was.
"This girl is really dramatic. If you weren't scared, why were you screaming?" Blaming others is a human nature, and Zhang Qiu felt much better.
"Did you do it on purpose?" Seeing Zhang Qiu's embarrassed look, Yemei also shed her shyness and began to question him firmly. "I'm the victim here, what do I have to be afraid of?"
"I..." Zhang Qiu felt both awkward and embarrassed, and it was hard to explain. He steeled himself, thinking, "I might as well be seen as a pervert. But I have a mission!"
"Okay, I won't scare you anymore. Hehe! You seem quite experienced at hugging, but you're so shy! I won't hold you accountable for your mistake, let's consider it a good deed! You owe me one!" Yemei was quite cheerful, and since their first meeting, she had a good impression of Zhang Qiu. Seeing him in such a predicament, she had already forgiven him.
"What do I owe you? A hug?" Zhang Qiu thought.
He glanced at Yemei, feeling her playful gaze. Zhang Qiu scratched the back of his head, laughed awkwardly, and said nothing.
This scene made Yemei laugh. Then she ignored Zhang Qiu, took out her phone, and decisively dialed a number.
"Dad! Someone is trying to kidnap me! It's right downstairs, they started following me as soon as I came down." She didn't call the police but called her father.
This kidnapping attempt, although it seemed sudden, was clearly premeditated. Otherwise, it wouldn't have happened as soon as Yemei came out of the office building and was about to go to the parking lot.
It's possible that Yemei had been under surveillance, and as soon as she came out, someone reported her location and prepared to kidnap her.
If someone was targeted for kidnapping, it seemed that Yemei's identity was not simple.
"I'm fine. Fortunately, I have a friend with me. Check on my brother quickly, I'm afraid someone might harm him too. Yes, I'll go back upstairs, and you send someone to pick me up. I'm still a bit scared." After saying this, Yemei hung up the phone.
Looking at Zhang Qiu, who was still a bit embarrassed, she said seriously, "Actually, I should thank you! If it weren't for you, I wouldn't know what to do!"
"It's nothing. We've met, so I couldn't just stand by and watch you get into trouble!" Zhang Qiu said, "The thing you suddenly remembered, was it about your brother?"
At this moment, Zhang Qiu seemed to understand why Yemei had screamed, which had misled him. This girl was more mature than she looked, indeed worthy of being from a wealthy family.
Yemei nodded and said, "Yes. I did suddenly think of my brother, so I screamed. But you, you pervert, you... humph! Never mind. I hope my brother is okay! But how did you notice their intentions in advance?"
This girl's跳跃性思维 (leaping thoughts) made Zhang Qiu sweat. When she said "pervert," his heart suddenly tightened, and he only relaxed when she continued.
