Chapter 436 My name is Ruan Mei
Seeing this, Lin Bei looked helpless.
"After you fainted, I checked on you. You were having trouble breathing and your face was pale, so I carried you to the car for emergency treatment."
"I loosened your collar and undergarments just so you could breathe more easily."
"If you don't believe me, touch your chest and see if your heartbeat is very weak!"
The girl was skeptical, but pressed her fingers to her heart, and gradually her emotions calmed down.
She remembered that she had indeed been chasing those two bikers, and as she ran, she suddenly felt a sharp pain in her chest, and then she lost consciousness.
Could it be that my heart condition has flared up again?
The girl seemed to have thought of something, her cheeks flushed slightly, she lowered her head, and her voice was as soft as a mosquito's buzz.
"I'm so sorry..."
"I thought you..."
"fine."
Lin Bei took out a cigarette case from his pocket, then remembered that the girl was in the car, so he put the cigarettes back in his pocket.
"By the way, your bag got stolen. Was there anything important inside?"
The girl nodded, her eyes reddening again.
"My salary I just received... and my bank card, ID card... it's all in there."
Lin Bei thought for a moment and picked up the mobile phone.
"Then I'll call the police for you..."
"By the way, what's your name?"
The girl paused for a moment, then quickly nodded in response:
"My name is Ruan Mei..."
Upon hearing this name, Lin Bei finally took a good look at the girl's face.
"Holy crap, it was you?"
"what?"
Ruan Mei was startled and instinctively shrank back.
......
When the two came out of Kwun Tong Police Station, it was already past 3 p.m.
The sun was setting in the west, and its heat made people feel a little dizzy.
Ruan Mei followed behind Lin Bei with her head down. Suddenly, her stomach growled twice, making her freeze with embarrassment.
Lin Bei turned around and glanced at her.
Are you hungry?
"Would you like to grab something to eat first?"
Ruan Mei blushed, hesitated for a moment, and then responded with a smile.
"Thank you so much for your help today..."
"To thank you for your help, let me treat you to dinner..."
Lin Bei initially wanted to refuse, but seeing her serious expression, he nodded.
"Okay, let's go."
Ruan Mei rode in Lin Bei's car and took him back to the low-rent housing in Shek Kip Mei.
She told Lin Bei to wait a moment at the door while she went inside to get the money.
She came out several minutes later, wearing a faded shirt and carrying an old bag. Her pretty face was still covered in sweat.
"Let's go, let's go."
She led Lin Bei to a small noodle shop in Mong Kok. Pushing open the door, they found only a few plastic tables inside, and an old fan hanging overhead, creaking and groaning.
"Boss, two bowls of wonton noodles."
She turned to Lin Bei and asked:
"Is there enough for you?"
"Would you like to add another serving of fish balls?"
"No need, that's enough."
Lin Bei looked around the somewhat cramped little shop, then glanced at Ruan Mei's serious expression as she ordered, wanting to laugh but holding it back.
Two bowls of wonton noodles were served quickly. The soup was clear and the noodles were thin, with a few plump wontons floating on top.
Ruan Mei ate very slowly, glancing at Lin Bei every now and then, as if she wanted to say something but hesitated.
Lin Bei asked curiously:
Why are you looking at me like that?
Ruan Mei lowered her head, her voice timid.
"Lin Bei... don't you think I'm being too stingy?"
"I'll offer a bowl of wonton noodles to thank my savior..."
Lin Bei paused for a moment, then burst into laughter.
"Hahaha!"
"If saving lives requires calculating gains and losses, how many more lonely ghosts would be added to this world!"
"Let's have noodles, a bowl of wonton noodles, I think that's fine..."
After saying that, Lin Bei lowered his head and ate a couple of bites of noodles; surprisingly, they tasted alright.
He glanced at the noodle shop sign and quietly noted down the address.
By the time the two finished their noodles, it was already dark outside.
Lin Bei drove Ruan Mei back to Shek Kip Mei.
The car stopped downstairs at the public housing estate. Nguyen Mai got out, bowed to Lam Pak, and said earnestly:
"Lin Bei, thank you so much today..."
"If there's a chance in the future..."
Lin Bei interrupted her and instructed her:
"Alright, it was nothing."
"Take care of yourself. If you encounter another crisis, remember to protect yourself first. Money can be earned back, but good health is the foundation of everything!"
Ruan Mei nodded vigorously and turned to go upstairs.
Just then, a commotion arose at the bottom of the stairs.
A man in a floral shirt was grabbing a young girl's wrist, preventing her from leaving.
The girl struggled desperately, her voice trembling with tears.
"Let me go! Ding Yixie! Let go!"
"Fang Min, don't push your luck."
"It is your Fang family's good fortune that I, Ding Yixie, have taken a liking to you."
"You'd better come with me tonight, or I'm going to lose my temper!"
Ruan Mei recognized the girl at a glance, and her expression changed drastically.
"Amin!"
Just as she was about to run over, she turned back to look at Lin Bei, her eyes filled with pleading.
Fang Min also saw Ruan Mei, and then saw Lin Bei standing behind her. As if she had grasped a lifeline, she suddenly shook off Ding Yixie's hand and ran towards them.
"Sister Ruan Mei! This person is here to cause trouble!"
She ran to Ruan Mei's side, then looked at Lin Bei. Seeing that he was tall, she subconsciously shrank behind him.
Ding Yixie followed with a few henchmen, looking at Lin Bei with disdain.
"Where did this brat come from? Get out of my way!"
"I advise you not to meddle in other people's business, buddy. I'm a Red Pole of the Chung Ching Society!"
Lin Bei glanced at Ruan Mei, then at Fang Min who was huddled behind him, and suddenly smiled.
He unbuttoned his shirt cuffs and slowly rolled up his sleeves to his elbows.
"Tsk tsk, I didn't want to get involved in this."
"However, we need some public support right now."
"And... I hate being threatened the most!"
Before he finished speaking, his fist had already been thrown.
Before Ding Yixie could react, he was punched squarely in the bridge of his nose, falling backward with blood spurting from his nose.
Several of his henchmen surrounded him, but they were no match for Lin Bei.
In no time at all, seven or eight people were sprawled on the ground, clutching their stomachs and howling in agony.
Fang Min's eyes widened, and Ruan Mei covered her mouth, unable to utter a single word.
Lin Bei flicked his wrist, took out his cell phone from his pocket, and made a call.
"Hello, is this Kowloon Police Station?"
"Someone is raping a minor girl in the street downstairs at a low-rent housing estate in Shek Kip Mei. Please send someone over."
After hanging up the phone, he looked at the two girls, his tone relaxed:
"When the police arrive, just explain what happened earlier."
Ding Yixie rolled around on the ground, still cursing under his breath.
Lin Bei stepped forward, squatted down, and patted Ding Yixie's face, startling him so much that he immediately shut his mouth.
"Hey, if you ever dare to cause trouble for this girl again, I'll beat you up every time I see you."
"Yes, yes, I heard you!"
Ding Yixie swallowed hard and nodded frantically.
Not long after, a police car arrived, and several uniformed officers quickly handcuffed Ding Yixie and his gang and put them in the police car.
Fang Min stood to the side, her gaze fixed on Lin Bei.
After the police officers left, she mustered her courage and stepped forward, her cheeks flushed.
"Um... thank you."
"My name is Fang Min, and I live in this building."
"To repay you and Sister Ruanmei for saving my life, would you like to come to my house for dinner tonight?"
Just as Lin Bei was about to refuse, Ruan Mei suddenly tugged at his sleeve and whispered:
Let's go together.
"Sister Ling's cooking is really good, and... I lost a lot of money today..."
Lin Bei looked down at Ruan Mei, saw her serious expression, and then looked away somewhat guiltily. In the end, he couldn't help but laugh out loud.
"Alright, I'll have dinner with you tonight."
