Tang Yue stepped forward to help, but her limited martial arts skills were fine against ordinary men, not so much against seasoned fighters.
Previously, the oily, slick-faced man who had been following Xie Ziyue rushed forward and said, "Young Master, let me help you."
That oily, slick-faced man was even less capable than Tang Yue. Him rushing in only meant getting beaten, but it did buy Xie Ziyue a bit of time.
Xie Ziyue appeared gentle, but his moves were anything but sluggish.
"Who are you guys."
"Don’t kick my stomach."
The oily, slick-faced man cried out in pain while being beaten, and all that could be heard in the midst of the five-person melee were his screams.
The two men saw they couldn’t take Tang Yue with them, exchanged glances, and quickly retreated.
"They finally left." Tang Yue breathed a sigh of relief, approached Xie Ziyue, saw his once neat grey suit now dirty, and said with an apologetic tone, "I’m so sorry for causing you trouble."
She initially wanted Xie Ziyue to just pass on a message, not expecting him to take action.
"No need." Xie Ziyue dusted off his clothes, made sure that the oily, slick-faced man was alright, and then asked, "Did you offend someone?"
"I don’t know, I haven’t been in Jin City for very long." Tang Yue was completely clueless.
Gratefully, she said, "My name is Tang Yue, I am Meng Siyu’s wife. Who are you? Are you also from the company?"
Her bright eyes sized Xie Ziyue up as she felt very bad for having been helped by him twice now.
"Xie Ziyue, I’m not from the company. My older brother knows Meng Siyu," Xie Ziyue answered succinctly. "It’s nothing major. Let me take you back, I’m not sure if they’ll come back or not."
"Thank you then."
At this moment, Tang Yue was not about to foolishly refuse. What if those men came back?
As they went along, Tang Yue chatted casually with Xie Ziyue and learned that he had just returned from studying abroad in Y country. In a flash, she thought of Lian Qingqing but didn’t make any connection.
Xie Ziyue escorted Tang Yue all the way to the entrance of the alley. Tang Yue, as though remembering something, took out US$ 1,000 from her bag and handed it over, saying, "This is the one thousand yuan from Grandma Gu."
Xie Ziyue didn’t accept it, his gaze resting on Tang Yue’s clean face. He had heard that day, Grandma Gu was just a lonely old woman.
"Speaking of which, Grandma Gu is somewhat like a relative to me, being my aunt’s grandmother-in-law, whom I recently got to know. My aunt and uncle mentioned that if they saw you, they wanted to give you this," Tang Yue explained with a smile. "Of course, should my aunt and uncle have the chance to meet you, they would surely like to express their gratitude in person."
"It was a simple gesture; I don’t need this money. If the old lady doesn’t need it, just take it as something to buy her some nutritional supplements." Xie Ziyue got in his car and departed.
As a married young woman, Tang Yue wasn’t going to force the money on anyone and could only silently put the money away. Now knowing who the other party was, that was enough.
Back home, Tang Yue sat on the sofa and made a cup of hot tea to calm her nerves.
Those two people from today, why were they following her?
And then, did they plan to kidnap her?
If it were not for Xie Ziyue’s impressive skills, those men would have surely taken her by force.
