279 LUCKY

At Zenith-O…

One of the men – the bulkier between the two – grabbed Hwang Meilin by the wrist and threw her away when she tried to rescue her friend, Teng Man Rui from the two hungry wolves who were eyeing to take her home. 

She lost her balance and was repelled strongly backward. Hwang Meilin got nervous even more as she stumbled and struggled on her own, flapping her arms trying to find balance, when she bumped her back onto something solid. She bounced forward this time. 

'Huh! Ouch!' She gasped in protest as her eyes widened from getting caught unaware.

Now, being thrown forward, a hand caught her arm in place. As she turned her head backward, she could sense a hovering shadow of a man who was standing behind her. "Be careful, lady."

"S-Sorry. I'm sorry." Hwang Meilin blurted out thoughtlessly.
