Alice looked out of the window. It was true. Snowflakes were floating in the air. The weather was so cold.
Alice almost forgot that Christmas was coming soon. It would be great if she could spend Christmas with Jiang Cheng this year. After all, according to the attending doctor, she was 16 years old this year. Basically, she could not live past 20 years old. At Christmas, her life would be frozen …
Alice cherished the snow outside as if she wanted to engrave this scene in her mind.
"Alice, Alice …"
Alice suddenly heard Jiang Cheng calling her. She suddenly woke up from her thoughts. She withdrew her gaze from the window and turned to look at Jiang Cheng beside her. She found that Jiang Cheng was looking at her with concern. Her heart trembled. Yes, why did she think so much? At least Jiang Cheng was by her side now.
Alice and Jiang Cheng chatted about all kinds of things. She begged Jiang Cheng to tell her stories about the gangs in Huaxia and Jiang Cheng's experience in the past. As a result, she couldn't help but exclaim. She covered her mouth with her hands and stared at Jiang Cheng in surprise. She asked from time to time, "And then? What's next? " She listened with great interest. After all, Jiang Cheng's experience was too wonderful compared with hers. Alice had been taken care of by her family since she was a child. It was only in the past two years that she had been able to get some freedom.
As time went by, it was noon in the blink of an eye. Jiang Cheng and Alice decided not to change restaurants. They prepared to eat something casually here. However, this western restaurant only served western food. Jiang Cheng ordered a steak, and Alice ordered a sandwich and a fruit salad.
As they ate and drank, they kept chatting. Alice felt that Jiang Cheng was becoming more and more attractive, not only because of his physique and appearance, but also because of his identity and his past story. The mysterious, exciting and challenging life made her heart beat fast. She couldn't help but be fascinated by him.
"Ding Dong". In this world of ice and snow, where there were fewer and fewer people on the streets of the 17th District, the door was pushed open again, and the person who pushed the door seemed to have exerted a lot of strength. The crisp sound of the doorbell was especially loud.
"Welcome! ~" The waiter at the counter bowed and said.
But no one replied to him. Jiang Cheng could only hear the sound of footsteps getting closer and closer to him. He put down the beef on his fork that was about to enter his mouth and turned his head to look. His expression suddenly changed!
There were a total of ten people in the restaurant. Two of them were white, and the rest were black. Jiang Cheng didn't know the black people, but the two white people were very familiar to him. They were Medes and Stanley. They were holding two machetes respectively, and they walked towards Jiang Cheng with more than ten black people. The black people behind them were also holding various kinds of weapons.
Jiang Cheng stood up from the table and looked coldly at Medes and the people behind him. He gritted his teeth and scolded, "McGuffin, what do you want? I've just let you go, and you've forgotten your promise not to cause trouble again? "
Medes's face changed. He stared at Jiang Cheng with hatred and shouted to the people around him, "Go! Catch him! "
When the black men behind him heard his words, they immediately rushed forward and pushed over the surrounding tables and chairs. More than a dozen of them immediately surrounded Jiang Cheng and Alice in the middle, waving their weapons and pacing around. They believed that once they found an opportunity, they would immediately pounce on Jiang Cheng and Alice.
Alice's face was pale with fear. She had never encountered such a situation before. She shrank in the corner of the table, looking weak and helpless.
Jiang Cheng glanced at the people around him and looked at Medes with a cold smile. "Do you think you can beat me with these black people?"
Medes smiled, showing his freshly mended front teeth, which were obviously of a different color from the surrounding teeth. He said, "They are some of the best people in the Martin Gang. Even if you are strong, you will not be a match for them. Hey!" He suddenly saw Alice at the corner of the table, so he walked around Jiang Cheng and came to Alice's side. He grabbed Alice's white wrist and turned to Jiang Cheng, saying, "Is this your girlfriend? Let her stay with me for a night, and I will let you go today. "
"Yes, let go, let go …" Alice struggled with all her might, trying to break free from Medes's grasp. But she was weak and weak, and her strength was pitifully small. She could not do it at all.
Seeing Alice's weak and helpless face with a hint of fear, Medes smiled proudly and bent down to kiss Alice.
Alice looked at the big ugly face that was getting closer and closer in disgust. She screamed nervously, "Ah! Go away — "
Bang! Jiang Cheng kicked the side of Medes's face, and the guy's head was thrown to the side.
With a loud bang, Medes's body smashed into a nearby table. With a crack, the table broke into two halves. He fell to the ground with a thud, clutching his buttocks and waist as he writhed in pain. But then, he endured the pain and reached into the inside pocket of his shirt to pull out a gun. He aimed it at Jiang Cheng and pulled the trigger.
Bang! A loud gunshot rang out.
"Ah! Don't — "The waitress and Alice screamed in unison. Alice closed her eyes, not daring to look.
Clang! Crash! First, there was the sound of a crash, followed by the sound of glass shattering.
"Let's go!" Alice, who had her eyes closed, suddenly felt her wrist being pulled by someone. Jiang Cheng said in her ear. She opened her eyes in surprise and found that the tempered floor-to-ceiling window by the wall had been completely shattered, revealing an exit. And Jiang Cheng was holding her hand, urging her to run out through this exit.
Alice looked back and saw that there were more than a dozen black men around her, holding all kinds of weapons and about to rush over. She couldn't help but scream and run out through the broken window. After running a dozen steps, she looked back into the restaurant and saw that Jiang Cheng was waving a chair in his hand, blocking the black men.
"Run! Don't look back!" Jiang Cheng shouted without looking back.
Hearing Jiang Cheng's words, Alice's eyebrows flashed with a hint of hesitation. Then she bit her lip, lifted her skirt, and ran to the street in the distance.
Jiang Cheng saw Alice run far away through the reflection of the window, and the corner of his mouth curled into a smile. When Madsen fired a shot, he almost reflexively moved to the side, dodging the bullet. The bullet made a hole in the floor-to-ceiling window, which gave him a wake-up call. So he turned around and kicked the tempered glass, shattering it into pieces. Then he grabbed Alice, who was beside him, and let her escape.
If it was just Jiang Cheng alone, in his opinion, he could easily escape in this situation. But with Alice by his side, it would be difficult to ensure that she wouldn't get hurt and bring her out safely. So he could only use this method and let her go first.
"Bang!" Another gunshot rang out.
Jiang Cheng tilted his head, and the bullet flew past his ear. He could even feel the heat of the bullet in his ear.
Jiang Cheng swept the chair in his hand horizontally, forcing the black men around him to take a step back. He stared at Madsen, who was standing behind the black men. Madsen was holding a gun in his hand, aiming it at Jiang Cheng. He was looking for a chance to sneak up on Jiang Cheng.
Jiang Cheng looked at him coldly. It seemed that this gun was Madsen's biggest trump card. With this guy watching from the side, who knew when he would be shot? After all, it was too difficult to deal with the attacks of more than ten people at the same time and avoid sneak attacks.
Suddenly, Jiang Cheng squatted down, grabbed a table knife from the ground, and threw it at Madsen!
Madsen was shocked when he saw Jiang Cheng's action. He immediately dodged to the side, but he was too late. The table knife stabbed into his shoulder, and he involuntarily let out a scream. The gun in his hand fell to the ground with a clatter.
While the black men were distracted by Madsen's scream, Jiang Cheng sneered and turned to run out of the restaurant. He chased after Alice, who was not far away.
"Hurry! Quickly chase after him and bring him back! " Madsen shouted anxiously at the black men around him. These idiots only cared about him and let Jiang Cheng and Alice escape.
The black men around him suddenly came to their senses. They immediately grabbed their weapons and chased after Jiang Cheng. They were very fast.
Jiang Cheng quickly caught up with Alice. When he reached her side, he found that she was panting and could not run anymore. Every step was difficult for her.
Alice ran another two steps and could not run anymore. She stopped and turned to look behind her. When she saw Jiang Cheng, she smiled. But when she saw the black men following closely behind him, her face immediately turned pale.
"Don't stop, Alice." Jiang Cheng ran two steps faster. He grabbed Alice's hand and pulled her forward. At the same time, he kept looking behind him with the corner of his eyes.
Jiang Cheng pulled Alice along as he ran quickly down the main street. From time to time, he would look back. Although Alice was also running with all her might, her speed was still too slow. The distance between them and the black man behind them was closing.
"I, I can't run anymore, Big Brother Jiang Cheng." Alice stopped and shook her head. She was panting.
Jiang Cheng looked at the black men who were quickly catching up. The distance between them was very close. If he was alone, he could naturally run away easily. But now that Alice was by his side, he could not leave her alone. If Alice was caught by the black men, Jiang Cheng knew what would happen to her.
Jiang Cheng turned around and held Alice in his arms. He said to her, "Hold me tight."
Alice was surprised as she lay in Jiang Cheng's arms. She felt Jiang Cheng's strong arms supporting her body. She could not help but feel warm in her heart. She obediently stretched out her hands and wrapped them around Jiang Cheng's neck. She hugged him tightly. A pair of beautiful blue eyes shyly and intoxicated looked at Jiang Cheng's face.
Jiang Cheng held Alice in his arms and ran as if she was weightless. She weighed only 60 to 70 kilograms, and it was as if he was holding a doll, light and weightless. Moreover, her body was soft and weak, as if there were no bones in it. This girl's body had become so weak because of her illness.
