Chapter 31 Resolving the Crisis for Her

As soon as Luo Yueliang saw Zhou Jiajia head to the restroom, she immediately followed suit. However, before she could catch up, she witnessed Zhang Tianfeng and her gang knock Zhou Jiajia down and abduct her. Luo Yueliang knew she was no match for them and couldn't rescue Zhou Jiajia on her own, so she rushed to seek Ye Long's help without hesitation.

"Where did they go?" Ye Long asked sternly.

"Over there, towards the back hill of the garden!" Luo Yueliang pointed in the direction.

Ye Long dashed towards the direction she indicated.

"Brother Long, wait up for me!" Luo Yueliang hastily chased after him.

...

At this moment, at the back hill of the garden.

Zhang Tianfeng, who was striding forward, suddenly halted and commanded, "Right here!"

In an instant, more than a dozen men and women came to an abrupt stop. One of the men unceremoniously tossed Zhou Jiajia, who had been slung over his shoulder, onto the ground.

Under the dim moonlight, it was evident that Zhou Jiajia had completely passed out. The men present at the scene stared at Zhou Jiajia, their eyes fixed and their throats bobbing as they swallowed hard.

Zhang Tianfeng glared at Zhou Jiajia malevolently. "Zhou Jiajia, now that you're in my grasp, let's see how I'll make you pay!"

She immediately barked at the group, "Strip her of her clothes!" The men's faces lit up with avarice, and they lunged forward, jostling and competing with one another.

"Something's amiss!" Suddenly, a man assigned to keep watch hurried over, his expression tense.

Everyone turned their attention to him.

"That guy is on his way here!" The lookout blurted out in a panic.

Before anyone could react, a figure flashed into the forest like a bolt of lightning. When he came to a stop and stepped from the shadows into the moonlight, everyone recognized the newcomer as Ye Long.

"Ugh!"

"It's him!"

The more than a dozen men and women beside Zhang Tianfeng were so taken aback that they instinctively retreated a few steps. Ye Long's gaze fell upon Zhou Jiajia lying on the ground. Assured that she was unharmed physically and still breathing, his eyes then shifted to Zhang Tianfeng's face.

Zhang Tianfeng seethed, "Kid, you've arrived just in time. I've been itching to get even with you!"

"Take this kid down for me first!" Zhang Tianfeng ordered the two bodyguards by her side.

After descending from Wulong Mountain at noon, Zhang Tianfeng had promptly sought out the butler and requested two highly skilled bodyguards. She had previously witnessed the formidable abilities of these two bodyguards. One was capable of punching through a wall, and the other could shatter a stone with a kick, which had greatly impressed her.

Zhang Tianfeng had brought these two bodyguards along tonight, intent on seizing the opportunity to settle the score with Ye Long. Now, that opportunity had finally presented itself.

The two bodyguards lunged at Ye Long in an instant. One of them threw a punch directly at Ye Long's face. Ye Long reached out and deftly caught his fist. The other bodyguard lifted his leg and aimed a vicious kick at Ye Long's groin. Ye Long caught his leg with his other hand just in front of his groin.

The two bodyguards' faces paled with alarm. They suddenly realized that their fists and feet, once caught by the opponent, were as immovable as if clamped by steel pincers.

CRACK! The terrifying sound of breaking fist and foot bones resounded simultaneously.

"AAAAH..." The two bodyguards let out ear-piercing screams.

Ye Long said icily, "This is a lesson for you, disabling your hands and feet. From now on, mend your ways and be decent people!"

Ye Long gave a flick of his hands, and the two bodyguards were hurled to the ground with a thud. Enduring the excruciating pain, the two bodyguards managed to get up and scurried away.

"You..." Zhang Tianfeng gaped in disbelief, completely stunned. The more than a dozen men and women who had been watching were also thoroughly intimidated by the sight.

"Scram!" Someone shouted, and the more than a dozen men and women promptly turned tail and fled.

Zhang Tianfeng, seeing her cohorts vanish, was so petrified that she trembled all over. She tried to feign composure and snarled at Ye Long, "Kid, you'll pay for this. This isn't over yet!"

As Zhang Tianfeng turned to make her escape, Ye Long suddenly flashed in front of her and landed a stinging slap on her face.

"Oof!" Zhang Tianfeng crashed to the ground and lost consciousness on the spot.

Ye Long approached Zhou Jiajia, gently lifted her into his arms, and then turned and made his way out of the forest.

"Brother Long, is Jiajia okay?" Luo Yueliang caught up at that moment. She stole a glance at Zhang Tianfeng, who was unconscious on the ground, and then looked anxiously at Zhou Jiajia in Ye Long's arms.

"She's fine." Ye Long replied curtly and hurried off.

Shortly after, as Ye Long carried Zhou Jiajia out of the back hill, some of the men and women who were still lingering at the party cast curious glances their way. Ye Long strode briskly through the crowd, got into Zhou Jiajia's sports car, and sped off.

"Yueliang, what happened?"

"Is Jiajia alright?" The more than a dozen men and women immediately surrounded Luo Yueliang, their faces etched with concern.

Luo Yueliang shook her head. "I'm not sure."

Luo Yueliang climbed into a sports car and drove off.

Ye Long drove the sports car for a while before suddenly slamming on the brakes and looking at Zhou Jiajia, who was lying in the passenger seat. Under the glow of the streetlights, Zhou Jiajia's face was an unnatural shade of crimson. Her body quivered slightly, her hands flailed restlessly on her body, and she emitted continuous moans of pain.

Those bastards had drugged her! Judging from Zhou Jiajia's current agonized state, the dose of the drug she had been administered was substantial.

No, I have to neutralize the drug for her now! Ye Long looked at a neon sign not far ahead, hesitating. It was a high-end hotel.

Just then, Zhou Jiajia's moans grew more urgent and louder, and her hands clawed at her body with increased ferocity. Ye Long was terrified that her fingernails would lacerate her face. If that happened, she would be devastated when she woke up the next day.

Ye Long didn't hesitate any longer. He drove the sports car to the hotel in front of them, carried Zhou Jiajia, and rushed into the hotel.

On the road opposite the hotel, Luo Yueliang suddenly screeched her sports car to a halt. She stared at the hotel entrance, stunned for a long moment.

"Why did Brother Long bring Jiajia to the hotel? Should I follow them in?" Luo Yueliang was in a quandary.

Just then, a mobile phone on the car rang, and the screen showed an incoming call from Sister Bingbing. Luo Yueliang answered the call immediately. "Sister Bingbing."

On the other end of the line, Zhou Ruobing asked, "Yueliang, are you with my sister? Why can't I get through to her phone?"

"Sister Bingbing, Jiajia... she's in trouble!" Luo Yueliang frowned deeply.

Zhou Ruobing was taken aback.

Luo Yueliang quickly said, "She's at the Emperor Hotel. Hurry over here!" She hung up the phone abruptly.

Luo Yueliang parked the sports car in front of the hotel, got out, and dashed into the hotel.

...

In Room 189 of Ziwei Community.

Zhou Ruobing put away her phone and urgently said to her mother, "Mom, Xiaomei's in trouble!"

Liu Hongxia was startled. "What's wrong with Jiajia?"

Zhou Ruobing said, "Yueliang said she's at the Emperor Hotel and told us to go there right away!"

Liu Hongxia was so alarmed that she rushed out with Zhou Ruobing. The two women descended to the basement level, retrieved their car from the parking lot, and sped off in a hurry.

As they drove at high speed, Liu Hongxia mused, "Didn't Ye Long say he'd bring your sister back? Could he have taken her to the hotel?"

"We'll find out when we get there!" Zhou Ruobing, who was driving, also had the same thought. But since Luo Yueliang hadn't provided clear details, there was no point in speculating.

Liu Hongxia refrained from asking further questions to avoid distracting her daughter while driving.

...

In Room 313 of the Emperor Hotel.

Ye Long laid Zhou Jiajia on a large, pristine white bed. He placed one hand on her lower abdomen and channeled his internal energy into her body, attempting to expel all the drug from her system. After a while, Ye Long withdrew his energy and examined Zhou Jiajia.

Zhou Jiajia's face was so flushed that it seemed on the verge of bleeding. Her hair and the evening gown she was wearing were drenched in sweat. Just then, her body convulsed in pain again, her hands clawed desperately at her body, and she let out heart-wrenching cries of agony.

Ye Long felt a pang of regret. Due to the potency of the drug and the relatively late start of his attempt to neutralize it, the drug couldn't be completely eradicated from her body. Judging from her current state, apart from the risk of her fingernails scratching her body and face, which could lead to disfigurement, the powerful drug could also render her infertile in the future.

I have to resolve this for her immediately! And now, there's only one way to do it! However, Ye Long would never resort to that method unless it was an absolute last resort.
