Ah! The Villains I Forced to Turn Evil Can Read My Mind-Chapter 215
Qiao Chuchu supported the weakened Huai Ling as they descended the stairs.
Pei Yuan's car happened to be parked outside the unfinished building.
His heart clenched at the sight of the ruins, but he breathed a sigh of relief when he saw Qiao Chuchu and Huai Ling stumbling out. He approached them and asked, "Chuchu, are you okay?!"
Qiao Chuchu shook her head and looked around, realizing that not only had Pei Yuan come, but her other brothers, Weisheng Yucan, and Lin Qing had also arrived.
Even Lou Tingsi was there.
The desolate place was now packed with cars, making it feel somewhat lively.

Lin Shen immediately took off his coat and draped it over her shoulders. "Are you alright?"
She nodded, feeling a sense of relief and happiness. "Why are you all here?"
Lou Tingsi stepped forward, his brows furrowed with concern. "Your brothers told us you might have been kidnapped, so I started investigating and found this location. When we saw you and Ji Yanchuan being brought here, we rushed over immediately."
He glanced at the ruins. "Is there anyone else inside?"
Qiao Chuchu nodded wearily. "Yes, but I don’t know who they are."
Pei Che felt her forehead and then her neck to check her temperature. After ensuring she was unharmed, he calmly said, "These people are part of a kidnapping-for-ransom group. They probably targeted Ji Yanchuan because of his wealth, but since you were with him, they took you too."
Pei Youchuan nodded in agreement. "Don’t worry, little sister. We’ll handle the aftermath. You don’t need to worry about it."
Pei Fengnong walked up to her with concern. "You should rest. Let’s go home, okay?"
Pei Mu and Pei Ci pushed past Huai Ling. "They didn’t hurt you, did they, Chuchu?"
Pei Buxian took off his own coat and covered Qiao Chuchu with it. "You’re not wearing enough. Stay warm."
She nodded gratefully and glanced at Huai Ling. "Huai Ling fought bravely. They didn’t even get a chance to hurt me, but Huai Ling got hit on the head."
Weisheng Yucan sighed in relief upon hearing she was unharmed. "It’s fine. Huai Ling has always been tough. I’m just glad you’re both okay."
Lin Qing nodded vigorously, his brows furrowed. "We just finished work when we heard what happened. It scared us to death. I’m just glad you’re alright, Chuchu."
She nodded, touched by their concern. Thinking back to what had just happened, she unconsciously pursed her lips.
*Everyone is so worried about me and Huai Ling. If they knew Huai Ling confessed his feelings to me and even kissed me, it would probably be awkward. Thankfully, Huai Ling and I agreed to keep this between us and not tell anyone else.*
The Pei family: "?"
Weisheng Yucan: "?"
Lin Qing and Lin Shen: "?"
Lou Tingsi’s mind buzzed with anger, and he let out a bitter laugh, giving Huai Ling a meaningful look. "It seems our Huai Ling has been working very hard, hasn’t he?"
Pei Youchuan licked his teeth and cracked his knuckles. "Yeah, it looks like the Pei family owes him a big thank you."
Lin Qing groaned, covering his face in frustration. "I knew it! My brother, who’s always so proper and married, wouldn’t even get a crumb of affection!"
Lin Shen frowned, his gentle eyes filled with disappointment as he looked at Qiao Chuchu.
A hint of resentment flashed in his gaze as he glanced at Huai Ling, his lips pressed into a thin line of displeasure.
Pei Che was already furious, his expression dark as he glared at Huai Ling. "Mr. Weisheng, we should express our gratitude to you. Shall we have a chat?"
Huai Ling, reading their lips, lowered his eyes dejectedly and glanced at the car keys dangling in Weisheng Yucan’s hand.
Pei Mu and Pei Ci approached him. "Huai Ling~"
Suddenly, Huai Ling snapped. He shoved Pei Mu and Pei Ci aside, snatched the car keys from Weisheng Yucan, grabbed Qiao Chuchu’s hand, and ran!
