The shadow paused slightly, glanced at Long Linger, then turned and dashed into the woods.
"Hey, handsome, don't go! Thank you for saving us just now..."
Long Linger slipped into the woods and chased after him, but all she saw was the man's figure disappearing swiftly amidst the rustling leaves. He did a good deed but didn't leave his name and hurriedly ran off like that.
When Long Linger emerged from the woods, the police had already arrived and were asking Tang Qingxue some questions. Although they didn't provide much effective help, they said they would increase patrols here in the future.
Long Linger picked up Tang Qingxue's broken necklace from the ground, "Look, these people didn't take the necklace away!"
Tang Qingxue finally regained some composure and after thinking for a while, nodded, "I understand now, these people weren't trying to rob us. It's Lady Xue who sent them; they wanted to scare us."
