Chapter 1094 - 1102: But I Couldn’t Just Watch You Get Hit
Chapter 1094: Chapter 1102: But I Couldn’t Just Watch You Get Hit Shi Aoju suddenly felt his hand empty, and then he saw Su Jiuyi push Qi Jingren and Qin Shaobai aside. She fell heavily to the ground, and the van was speeding towards her.
Five meters, three meters, two meters... one meter...
"Jiuyi!"
Just as Qi Jingren reacted and reached out to pull Su Jiuyi, Shi Aoju dashed over in a flash, wrapped an arm around Su Jiuyi’s waist, and swiftly pulled her aside.
In the blink of an eye, the van accelerated and charged forward. Shi Aoju quickly sidestepped, but his arm still got grazed by the van’s mirror.
Then came a loud "bang," as the van crashed directly into Qi Jingren’s car. Due to the high speed, the van’s wheels screeched on the ground for at least twenty seconds before coming to a complete stop.
Before the crash, the driver made an emergency maneuver, so he only suffered minor injuries without life-threatening consequences. After the collision, he quickly assessed the scene and surroundings, likely sensing disadvantage, and immediately started the engine to escape.
Qin Shaobai heard the van’s engine start up, pulled out a ring from his trouser pocket, put it on, clenched his fist, and dashed forward to punch the car window with force.
The van seemed to be quite old, with windows of the old design. Although they were also tempered glass, they were far behind luxury cars of today. With Qin Shaobai’s sharp ring punch, the glass shattered into pieces.
The van driver hurriedly lowered the brim of his hat, shifted to reverse gear, and was about to step on the gas pedal when someone pulled out the key, and the van stalled.
"Run, then."
Qin Shaobai waved the car key at the driver with a smile. The driver’s gaze turned sharp as if preparing to snatch it, but Qin Shaobai gave him no chance. He quickly leaned back and turned towards Qi Jingren.
"Catch."
Qin Shaobai gestured to Qi Jingren and tossed the car key to her. Qi Jingren caught it and made an "ok" sign.
Seeing the unfavorable situation, the van driver secretly assessed Qin Shaobai’s expression, his position, and the surroundings. After pondering for a while, he suddenly lunged toward the passenger seat, opened the door, and jumped out.
Shi Aoju acted quickly and decisively. Leaning against the van’s rear door, with just a simple maneuver, he subdued the van driver.
Su Jiuyi was momentarily stunned as she watched handcuffs being put on the van driver’s hands. She thought only police had the authority to use handcuffs, especially to subdue criminals. To her surprise, Shi Aoju also had handcuffs and could detain people at will.
Qi Jingren checked herself for injuries while saying, "Why did you come out instead of resting at home as an injured person? Do you realize how dangerous it was just now?"
Though the tone sounded scolding, it was filled with concern. Su Jiuyi listened, nodded, and said, "I know, but I couldn’t just watch you get hit."
Her rush was indeed a reflex action. When she realized Qi Jingren might get hurt, she had only one thought: not to let her get into an accident, not to let her get hurt. So she acted without thinking, just like shielding Shi Aoju from gunfire.
"Alright, I know you care about me." Qi Jingren held her hand and said, "Let’s go over and take a look."
