"Here, this is for you."
I was taken aback. "Why are you giving me this?"
She explained, "We're out in the wilderness, and there might be wild animals around at night."
"If you encounter any danger while you're sleeping, just use this pepper spray to protect yourself!"
"Besides, I won't need both of them."
As she spoke, she shoved a flashlight into my hand. "You take this; I'm going to set up the tent."
With that, she turned and walked away.
I stood there, stunned.
What was going on?
Was she really worried about my safety?
But then I recalled what had happened that morning and felt like I was reading too much into it.
She was probably just concerned that I might actually get carried off by a wolf or something.
I turned on the flashlight and slowly made my way toward the dune in the distance.
After dark, the wind began to pick up.
The sand whipped up and hit my face, stinging quite a bit.
I couldn't help but quicken my pace.
As soon as I turned the corner, I saw Gangzi slip into sister Yang's tent.
He moved quickly, stripping sister Yang of her clothes in no time.
Despite her desperate resistance, he managed to pin her down.
"Baby, I'm here..."
No sooner had he spoken than Gangzi dove into sister Yang ’s body.
sister Yang let out a playful protest, "Hey, be gentle..."
I was taken aback!
It turned out that when they said they were going to find her at night, they really meant it?
I could hardly believe what I was witnessing.
I thought sister Yang simply wanted to invite me out for a casual chat, but I never expected she had arranged to meet Gangzi!
This was absolutely insane!
Just as I was about to leave, I suddenly heard a faint voice cry out, "Help!"
"Save me!"
I was taken aback!
Wasn't that Ni Liping's voice?
Following the sound, I looked over and saw a figure writhing in a nearby tent.
My heart tightened!
This was bad!
Sure enough, something had happened!
Without thinking twice, I rushed over and yanked open the tent's zipper.
Inside, I found Ni Liping bound hand and foot on the ground.
Her clothes were in tatters, exposing large patches of her fair skin to the air.
And the culprit was...
Gangzi!
"Let her go!"
I rushed forward and knocked Gangzi down with a punch.
Gangzi looked up at me, surprised. "It's you?!"
"Kid, I advise you not to meddle in my business!"
As he spoke, he licked his lips. "Heh, this girl is quite a catch!"
"I’m going to take care of her today, no matter what!"
Hearing this made me furious. "You dare to lay a finger on her?!"
"Do you believe I’ll call the police on you?"
Gangzi looked at me with disdain. "Call the police?"
"You must be joking."
"Do you even know where you are?"
"This is No Man's Land!"
"Even if you call the police, it won't matter!"
He lunged at Ni Liping again, exclaiming, "Girl, just give in to me!"
Ni Liping struggled desperately, shouting, "Help! Help!"
Just as I was about to step in and stop it, a loud crack echoed through the air.
Gangzi was sent spinning and fell heavily to the ground.
I saw Brother Ma standing there with a baseball bat in hand, smoking a cigarette as he cursed, "Damn you!"
"I told you to drive the car behind the Dune! What the hell are you doing here?!"
Gangzi covered his face and tried to explain, "Big brother, let me explain..."
Without a second thought, Brother Ma swung the bat again, hitting him hard. "Explain that to your mother!"
"I told you to drive the car; instead, you come here messing around with women?"
"Have you lost your mind?!"
Brother Ma continued to hit him a few more times before finally stopping.
