If You Could Hear My Heart-Chapter 538 - : The appearance of Nie Chenglang
Chapter 538: Chapter 538: The appearance of Nie Chenglang
She turned her head and yelled at the crowd, “Have all of you ate till you’re bloated, gossiping here? Scram as far as you can, don’t blabber here! Mind your own business!”
Xu Chaomu was truly furious, and now, her forehead was covered in sweat and her complexion looked terrible.
These people really had nothing better to do after a full meal—such ethos was ruined by these folks.
Startled by Xu Chaomu’s shout, the group of middle-aged uncles and aunties finally closed their mouths and sheepishly retreated.
But as they backed away, they still whispered among themselves, “That woman must also be no good.”
“Exactly, otherwise why would she be so furious?”
“Birds of a feather flock together; this woman looks like a vixen.”
“Yeah, these women, aren’t they just relying on their youth and beauty? Wait until they get old and get dumped by men, then we’ll see them crying in the streets.”
Xu Chaomu was boiling with rage as they continued to talk nonsense.
Just as she was about to speak up, suddenly, she heard a familiar voice!
“Chaomu!”
Under the sunlight, Xu Chaomu shielded her eyes and turned around— it was Nie Chenglang!
Nie Chenglang was wearing a white shirt and opened the door of a black Cayenne, jumping out from the driver’s seat.
His face wore a look of urgency, and as soon as he stepped out of the car, he hurriedly walked towards Xu Chaomu.
Seeing that Xu Chaomu had a friend come over, the middle-aged uncles and aunties finally moved further away.
The people who had just been crowding around Xu Chaomu and whispering all dispersed in an instant.
With her hand blocking the sun, Xu Chaomu watched as Nie Chenglang walked towards her.
Underneath the sunlight, Nie Chenglang, though with a worried expression, was still spirited, handsome, and composed.
He furrowed his brows and walked briskly to Xu Chaomu, his voice deep, “What happened?”
He had seen a crowd gathered here from a distance and was surprised to find Xu Chaomu upon getting closer.
“My friend got into a bit of trouble.”
“Hmm?” Nie Chenglang’s brows furrowed even more deeply.
Xu Chaomu knew she couldn’t explain everything in a few words, so she simply and concisely narrated what she had just seen and heard.
Nie Chenglang didn’t know Yu Weiwei, but back in Paris, he often heard Xu Chaomu mention her.
At that time, Xu Chaomu would frequently tell him, “Weiwei is my best friend, I miss her so much…”
Over time, he had come to understand that Xu Chaomu and Yu Weiwei shared a deep friendship.
He hadn’t expected that this research institute was actually owned by this girl called “Yu Weiwei.”
“That’s the situation,” Xu Chaomu said, urgency still apparent in her eyes.
She was anxious, pacing around helplessly.
She didn’t anticipate running into Nie Chenglang—Just in time, she wouldn’t need to look for Li Beiting.
“I understand,” Nie Chenglang nodded.
“Chenglang, why are you passing by here? Aren’t you busy?” Xu Chaomu was worried about holding him up.
“It’s okay, I had to meet a client, and I’ve just finished with that.”
“If you’re busy, you should get back to the company.”
“No matter, let me take a look,” Nie Chenglang said indifferently.
After speaking, Nie Chenglang walked through the crowd alone towards the institute’s main entrance.
“Chenglang!” Xu Chaomu quickly grabbed his sleeve, her expression tense.
With more men up ahead, she feared that Nie Chenglang would be at a disadvantage on his own.
The group of men might not lay a hand on her, a woman, but it was uncertain what would happen if Nie Chenglang confronted them.
Xu Chaomu stood anxiously at the entrance of the research institute alongside Nie Chenglang.
The security guards saw Xu Chaomu again, and this time, there was an additional man beside this young woman!
Did you call for help so quickly?
The security guard wanted to force them away and walked past the security line to approach them, “What are you doing here again? I told you to leave early!”
Nie Chenglang stood before them, his expression cold and indifferent.
“What happened?” Nie Chenglang asked.
Xu Chaomu hid behind Nie Chenglang, feeling a little frightened.
It wasn’t that she was cowardly, but because she was pregnant with a baby, and she wanted her baby to be born safely and soundly.
This was her and Shen Chi’s first child.
At that moment, her heart was thumping wildly.
“This is none of your business, leave now!” The security guard said without any facial expression, his attitude very unpleasant.
“Move aside!”
Nie Chenglang slightly lifted his eyes, a chilly glance enough to make everyone’s heart tremble.
The two words he spoke lightly carried a significant deterrence.
“From now on, no one is allowed to enter!” The security guard declared arrogantly.
They stood in front of the main entrance, behind a security line.
“Chaomu, wait for me outside,” Nie Chenglang said as he let go of Xu Chaomu’s hand, speaking to her softly.
His voice was always so gentle when he spoke to her, like cherry blossoms gently falling with the March breeze.
Xu Chaomu was still gripping his sleeve; she felt uneasy.
After all, Nie Chenglang didn’t know Yu Weiwei, and it could be very dangerous for him to go up there rashly.
“Wait for me.” He patted her hand gently again.
Before Xu Chaomu could react, the two security guards stretched the security line, “Move back, move back.”
Nie Chenglang let go of Xu Chaomu’s hand, pushed past the security guards, and swiftly started heading upstairs!
“Chenglang!” Xu Chaomu called out anxiously from behind.
The security guards almost fell down, unsteady on their feet. Seeing Xu Chaomu also trying to come in, they stopped her.
Xu Chaomu stomped her feet anxiously; Nie Chenglang was upstairs alone, and she knew he would be at a disadvantage, worry evident in her eyes.
Nie Chenglang directly made his way upstairs; the guards didn’t dare to follow as they were also afraid of the group upstairs.
Just as Nie Chenglang reached the stairwell, a loud “clang” noise came from above, as if something had been smashed to pieces again!
Searching for the source of the noise, Nie Chenglang’s sharp gaze swept around.
Finally, he climbed the stairs and saw several burly men standing at the entrance of an office.
Outside the door, there were broken ceramic pieces, glass fragments, and wood chips!
The scene was a mess, unbearable to look at.
The air was also mixed with all kinds of smells, the scent of cigarettes, perfume, air freshener…
Nie Chenglang furrowed his brows and walked to the entrance of the office.
The group quickly noticed Nie Chenglang. A man immediately approached and without saying a word, swung a punch at him, “Damn it, you even dared to call for help!”
Nie Chenglang moved swiftly, caught the man’s fist, and kicked out, hitting the man in the stomach!
The man hadn’t anticipated that this seemingly refined man would know how to fight!
Completely unguarded, the man screamed out in pain from Nie Chenglang’s kick, as the other men immediately rushed forward to help.
Nie Chenglang knew he couldn’t beat so many people alone, and he suddenly caught sight of a dagger in one man’s pocket! freeweɓnovel.cѳm
His gaze sharpened, realizing that this group was all armed with weapons.
He moved quickly forward, grabbed the man’s arm, threw it back, and with lightning speed pulled the dagger out of his pocket!
The next second, before anyone could react, he pinned the man down with one hand and held the dagger to his throat with the other!
