The footsteps behind Xu Weilai seemed to quicken as well when she sped up. Her brows furrowed tightly when she realised she was indeed being followed. A glimmer of light flashed in her eyes when she noticed a bend ahead. Her entire figure disappeared behind the bend within three steps.

Instead of running away, she leaned against the wall after the bend and waited for the opportunity to strike so that she could catch the person who was tailing her.

As expected, the person fell into her trap. A man in mask rushed forward when he thought that he might have lost her. In a hurry, he did not realise that Xu Weilai was behind him, “Hi brother.”

The man received a direct blow on his face when Xu Weilai struck him with bags of groceries she had in her hand towards his head.

He let out a grunt and retreated from the unexpected attack.

Xu Weilai did not stop as she did not want to give him any chance to catch his breath. He bent his knee involuntarily and knelt on the ground as she landed a kick at his knee. She grabbed and pulled his arm forcefully behind him. With her other hand on his shoulder, she firmly pressed him down on the ground and momentarily crippled him.

“Who are you? Why are you following me?” Xu Weilai asked sternly.

The man struggled to break free instead of answering her question.

Xu Weilai’s gaze moved downward from his masked face and saw a camera hanging around his neck. “Are you a reporter?”

That did not seem right. How could she attract reporters if she was of no news value?

In one swift move, Xu Weilai reached out with one hand and pulled off the man’s mask. To no surprise, she did not recognize this man.

She thought about it and reached for his camera. However, he was quicker. As he grabbed on to his camera with his free hand, he pulled away from Xu Weilai, ignoring the fact that Xu Weilai was having one of his hand to his back. He groaned in pain when he forcefully pulled his hand away from her. Then he fiercely pushed her away.

Xu Weilai staggered from his push and fell to the ground when she failed to balance herself. She grimaced in pain from the torn skin of her palm when her hand instinctively tried to support her body from the fall.

The man took this opportunity to run. A car appeared out of nowhere and had the door opened for him at the intersection. He jumped into the car and it sped off from the scene.

Xu Weilai’s mouth twitched in disbelief as she was still in shock from what she had witnessed.

It was actually a group crime.

This man did not look like a reporter, and yet he was following her on purpose and was taking photos of her. Then, who were they and who sent them? Why did they follow her?

Doubts and questions filled her mind, and yet she had no leads on how to unravel them.

She caught her breath and squatted down to pick up the groceries scattered on the ground. Some enthusiastic onlookers came forward to check on her and even asked if she needed help, of which she declined with a smile.

Back at the apartment building with her grocery bags, Xu Weilai caught sight of a familiar figure at the entrance to her apartment. He stood still as if he was having a lot of things in his mind, like a statue.

Stunned for a moment, she went forward and stood by his side. “Big Boss, why are you standing here so early in the morning instead of sleeping under the sheets on your warm bed? Did you sleepwalk your way here?”

Zuo An turned around abruptly upon hearing her voice. His dark eyes fell on her face as he stared at her blankly.
