When Xiao Lingyu turned the corner, a person suddenly rushed out with a dagger. He stabbed at her with a vicious force.

Her pupils contracted, and her mind went blank. She was caught by surprise. She didn't know what to think.

She had taken revenge on the Chen Family, but she hadn't given birth to Xiao Tong. She hadn't made amends to him. No, she couldn't just stand there!

Her instinct kicked in, and she lifted her legs. Before she could knee her assailant, there was a loud bang. It was the sound of a person falling to the ground. Then, there was a ding. That was the dagger hitting the floor.

The assailant was kicked to the ground. He curled up in pain, and he groaned. He struggled to stand up.

Gong Tianhao grew up in the army with his grandfather. From a young age, he followed the military leader and learned all sorts of combat techniques. So, while his kick was light, he aimed at the man's weak spot. It weakened the man instantly.

Xiao Lingyu finally came back to her senses. Her face was slightly pale. Her eyes flashed with fear. She turned to look at her assailant. It was a dirty beggar who was dressed in shabby clothes and had his hair clumped with mud. Xiao Lingyu couldn't see his face because he was facing the ground.

Then, she saw the dagger on the floor. To prevent the beggar from getting back the weapon, she picked it up from the ground. She then stepped away from the beggar.

This surprised Li Yuanhang and Gong Tianhao, who were watching. 'Wouldn't a normal person's reaction be running away? Why would she claim the dagger instead? This is surprising.'

After Xiao Lingyu snatched the dagger, she still didn't feel so safe. She ran to the beggar and kicked him in the belly to fully neutralize the threat.

The man screamed.

"Pfft!" Li Yuanhang couldn't help but laugh out loud. He poked gong Tianhao beside him and asked with a smile, "This girl is really interesting. No wonder Young Master Jiang likes her."

Gong Tianhao's face had always been cold and emotionless. He didn't say anything. He narrowed his eyes slightly, and his mouth curved with an imperceptible angle.

Xiao Lingyu turned around when she heard the laughter. It was her saviors. When she saw their faces, she was really surprised.

"It's you!" Xiao Lingyu cried out in surprise. Her heart was filled with complicated emotions. She didn't expect to see these two. She recognized the bespectacled man. He was the one who rear-ended her tricycle. They even got into an argument.

She had never seen the other man before, but she remembered the perfect curve of his side profile. He was Xiao Tong's father. Xiao Lingyu was very sure! Xiao Tong looked 80 percent similar to this man.

The facial features looked cute on Xiao Tong, but when transferred to this adult man, they were sharp and handsome. It was as if they had been sculpted by a sculptor with perfect proportions. The most impressive was his pair of deep, dark eyes. They shone with a sharp light, mysterious and unfathomable, yet they had a fatal attraction.

However, for Xiao Lingyu, the thing that crossed her mind was not the expensive clothes or handsome looks. It was the first time she encountered Xiao Tong's father. She would not be mistaken. Xiao Lingyu's hands moved to her belly. She sighed. 'Xiao Tong, did you see that? Your dad saved us. He is a good person, I guess.'
