Chapter 146 She is my fiancée
"Come with me!"
Before Yu Yuetong could react, Ji Momo pulled her out of the alley.
"Hey you……"
Before Yu Yuetong could finish speaking, she saw Ji Momo suddenly stop in her tracks, her face pale as she clutched her chest, seemingly enduring immense pain.
"What's wrong?" Upon seeing this, Yu Yuetong quickly helped her up and asked with concern.
"I..." Ji Momo opened her mouth, but suddenly spat out a mouthful of blood, then her vision went black and she fainted in Yu Yuetong's arms.
"Ji Momo?!"
Yu Yuetong was shocked and quickly hugged her, only to find that her body was ice-cold and lifeless.
"No! This is impossible!"
Yu Yuetong panicked. She shook Ji Momo's body desperately, trying to wake her up, but no matter how hard she tried, Ji Momo did not respond.
Just then, a siren blared from afar, its piercing alarm tearing through the night sky...
The piercing sirens sounded particularly jarring in the quiet night, while red and blue lights flashed and shone, illuminating the once pitch-black alley as if it were daytime. Yu Yuetong held the ice-cold Ji Momo in her arms, her mind blank, her ears ringing, as if the whole world had slowed down.
"What's going on? Why is there a woman here?" The first police officer to arrive was taken aback by the scene, then quickly stepped forward and asked warily, "Who are you? What is your relationship with the deceased?"
deceased?
Yu Yuetong's heart skipped a beat. She mechanically raised her head, staring blankly at the police officer in front of her. Was the deceased referring to Ji Momo?
"I...I don't know..." She opened her mouth, but found that she couldn't even speak clearly.
"You don't know? If you don't know, why are you holding her?" The police officer clearly didn't believe her story, and his tone became stern. "Tell me honestly, what was your relationship with her? How did she die?"
"I..." Yu Yuetong bit her lip, her mind a complete mess. How could she explain? Should she say that she had transmigrated from another world, and that the current owner of this body was her mortal enemy, and that the reason she was with Ji Momo was because...
"Because she wanted to save me!"
A deep male voice suddenly came from the alley entrance, interrupting Yu Yuetong's thoughts. She turned her head sharply and saw Qin Reng standing there with a gloomy expression, followed by several bodyguards in black.
"President Qin?!" The policeman was startled to see Qin Reng and quickly greeted him respectfully, "What brings you here?"
"Why can't I come? My woman was almost assaulted. Don't I even have the right to show my face?" Qin Reng coldly glanced at the policeman, his tone filled with undisguised anger.
"No...no, Mr. Qin, we..." The policeman was so frightened by his imposing manner that he broke out in a cold sweat and hurriedly waved his hands to explain.
"Get out of my way!" Qin Reng waved his hand impatiently, strode up to Yu Yuetong, pulled her up from the ground, and asked with concern, "Are you alright? Are you hurt?"
Yu Yuetong shook her head, her gaze falling on the black-clad bodyguard behind him, and she immediately understood. It seemed that Qin Reng had arrived in time to save her.
"What exactly happened?" Qin Reng breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that she was alright. He turned to the policeman and asked in an icy tone, "Speak!"
The police didn't dare to delay and quickly gave a brief account of what had happened. Of course, he concealed Yu Yuetong's previous unusual behavior, only saying that she was a hostage taken by criminals.
"A bunch of useless trash!" Qin Reng's face darkened further upon hearing this, and he angrily rebuked, "What use are you to me if you can't even protect a single person?!"
"I'm sorry, Mr. Qin, it was our negligence!" The police officers were so frightened that they didn't dare to breathe and could only bow their heads and admit their mistake.
Qin Reng ignored them, turned to Yu Yuetong, and asked softly, "Are you alright? Is anything bothering you?"
Yu Yuetong shook her head, but her gaze involuntarily fell on the cold corpse on the ground. Ji Momo, just like that, died?
"Don't be afraid, I'm here." Qin Reng seemed to sense her unease, gently patted the back of her hand, and comforted her, "I will handle everything."
Yu Yuetong didn't speak, but simply nodded silently. She knew that now was not the time for sadness; she had more important things to do.
"Mr. Qin, who is this young lady...?" the policeman asked cautiously, his gaze shifting back and forth between Qin Reng and Yu Yuetong, his eyes filled with doubt.
"She is my fiancée, Yu Yuetong," Qin Reng said calmly, his tone carrying an undeniable certainty.
fiancée?
Yu Yuetong looked up abruptly, staring at him in disbelief. Had he gone mad? He actually said she was his fiancée in front of the police?!
"Fiancée?!" The police officers were immediately shocked, their faces filled with disbelief and astonishment. How could this be? Mr. Qin's fiancée wasn't...
"What? Do you have any questions about what I said?" Qin Reng glanced at them coldly, his tone carrying a hint of danger.
"No... I wouldn't dare, Mr. Qin." The policemen shrank back in fright at his gaze and quickly shook their heads in denial.
"In that case, please make way, everyone. We're heading back." After saying this, Qin Reng put his arm around Yu Yuetong's shoulder and turned to leave.
Yu Yuetong felt stiff and uneasy as he held her. She tried to break free, but Qin Reng's arms were like iron clamps, firmly holding her and making her unable to move.
She could only let him hold her as they walked out of the dark alley filled with blood and death, and into the brightly lit city.
Qin Reng held Yu Yuetong with his left arm, his right hand casually brushing against her arm as if comforting a frightened animal. His deep gaze lingered on her face, and seeing her tremble slightly, his anger seemed to subside a little. He glanced at the police officers behind him, a hint of disdain on his face, before turning back to Yu Yuetong with a resolute look: "Don't worry, with me here, you'll be fine."
Yu Yuetong's heart trembled slightly. She knew that although the man before her was cold, he cared about her. Although the days they spent swapping bodies had made the boundaries between them seem incredibly blurred, his tone at this moment seemed to instantly bridge the distance between them. She wanted to break free from his embrace, but was drawn in by his warm presence, and for a moment she didn't know what to do.
"You make it sound so easy. If it had been any later... I don't know what would have happened next!" Her voice trembled slightly as she tried to break free from his warm embrace, but her gaze involuntarily fell on the cold corpse.
“We’ll talk about it when we get back,” he said in a low voice, his tone carrying a forceful command. Those eyes, which seemed to see right through her, continued to linger on her face, scanning her thoughts.
