I used all my strength to pound on the car window, kicking wildly with my feet. I shouted at the top of my lungs, "Lu Ruijun!" "Lu Ruijun! Help me! I'm here!" "Lu Ruijun!" Outside the car window, Lu Ruijun's figure became clearer. He stood in the middle of the road, arms wide open, shouting angrily, "Open the door!" "Open the door!" His voice tore through the silent night. The driver panicked and accelerated. Lu Ruijun chased after us, blocking the front of the car. His face was flushed with anger. "Get out of the way!" The driver was also flustered and slammed down on the gas pedal. Lu Ruijun rushed to the car window, picked up a brick, and smashed the glass. In that moment, moonlight poured in, illuminating the despair in my eyes. Lu Ruijun appeared like a deity descending from above, becoming a ray of hope for me. He reached out his hand and pulled me out through the window. " Yuezhu! Yuezhu!" he called my name anxiously. But I was too badly injured and quickly lost consciousness. When I woke up, it was three days later. Jiang Yanzhou was dead. Her body had been dismembered and sunk in a river upstream in a neighboring city. 0
 
 
Until three days ago, she was only discovered. Her belongings were placed on the bedside table in the hospital room. I opened her phone and saw her last message—it was me asking her to meet. I also found the text she sent to those two thugs. "Tomorrow night at eight, come to this place and teach her a good lesson." 0
 
Lu Ruijun stood behind me, coldly staring at me. "Why did you ask her to meet there?" I put down the phone, paused for a few seconds, and softly said, "She wanted to harm me; I just wanted to warn her." Lu Ruijun closed his eyes, suppressing his anger: "She's a lunatic; are you one too?" 0
 
I turned my head and quietly looked at him: "Yes, she is a lunatic, so she brought this upon herself." "Xu Yuezhu!" Lu Ruijun shouted my name with red eyes. "What did you do to Yan Zhou?" "Did you hire someone to deal with her?" "Was it you?" 0
 
Seeing his furious expression, I suddenly laughed: "Lu Ruijun, just leave." "The further away, the better." Lu Ruijun stared at me intensely, his eyes filled with hatred and anger. He turned and ran out. 0
 
I sat alone on the bed, hugging my shoulders. I knew that this time, Lu Ruijun would never come back. A few days later, at the Lu Group's banquet, I attended with my father. Lu Ruijun was on stage, surrounded by flashing lights; he radiated brilliance. Tonight, he had no partner. 0
 
 
Many socialites in the audience were gazing at his profile, their faces filled with admiration. Lu Ruijun finished dealing with reporters and guests and left midway. His mother patted the seat beside her and said to me, "Yuezhu, Ruijun has gone to the lounge on the second floor. Go take him a jacket." I nodded, picked up the jacket from the chair, and stepped out. 0
 
The lounge was dimly lit, with no lights on. I closed the door and slowly walked inside. Suddenly, a hand reached out and pulled me in. "Lu Ruijun..." Before I could finish my sentence, Lu Ruijun covered my mouth. "Shh." His voice was very soft. "Don't speak." 0
 
His damp hair dripped with water droplets that rolled down his chin and slid into his loose robe. He stared intently at my face, his gaze deep and swirling with complex emotions. "Yan Zhou," he called softly. I reached out and embraced him. 0
