Chapter 1429 Is She Your Friend
For some reason, Holley felt Wood wasughable and stupid as she watched how hard he tried to act.
However, she was quite patient that she carried on with her own act as well.
Thus, Wood felt that Holley must''ve had a thing for him. He approached her again and tried to grab her
waist.
"Why the rush? You haven''t even asked me my name, who I am, and where I''m from—and you just
want me to be your girlfriend?" Holley said slowly. Upon hearing those words, Wood looked at her and
realized she had a point.
"Alright, then. May I have your name, please?" he asked.
"My family name is Ye. Oh, I think that you asked about who my boyfriend is, right? His name is ck
Hu," Holley responded. Wood was quite happy when Holley told him her name, but when he heard her
boyfriend''s name, he got confused.
''ck Hu? I feel like I''ve heard that name somewhere, '' Wood thought.
''ck Hu… Hu…'' He kept thinking.
Suddenly, something urred to him. His eyes went wide open all of a sudden as he collected his
thoughts. ''ck Hu, the young master of Hu Group? His father is Rex Hu, the CEO of Hu Group, who
is not only connected to gangs but also connected to the police. Oh my God, is that the ck Hu I
know? It would be so unlikely that they are the same person. They''re not!'' he pondered.
The mere thought of ck''s background made his fat body tremble with fear.
His reactions didn''t go unnoticed by Holley, but she just mentally sneered.
''Yes, in this city, those people who have power and high social status are treatedpletely differently
by everyone. They can look down upon anyone. Besides, only a name, a single name of two words,
can terrify people. They wouldn''t even dare to mess up with anyone rted to these names, '' Holley
mused.
''And I''m just a person who hides behind other people''s names. I''m just using Hu Group''s name to
intimidate other people, so what makes me different from them?'' Holley thought bitterly.
The memories from that house the other night resurfaced in her mind again. ''One day, I''ll make them
pay. They will pay for all the humiliation and suffering, and I''ll make them pay double, '' Holley resolved
to herself.
"Beauty, you are not lying to me, are you?" Wood asked suspiciously. It was clear that he wasn''t sure
about what Holley just said.
Holley chuckled. "Lying? You really think I''m lying?"
Wood still eyed Holley dubiously. He knew that this beautifuldy wore fancy clothes and makeup, and
that she wasn''t an ordinary woman. She was rich and elegant. But, Wood thought that it was
impossible when Holley said that she was the girlfriend of the young master of Hu Group.
''The young master of Hu Group had studied abroad, and didn''t came back until recently. He went back
home to take over his father''spany, so it''s impossible for him to have a girlfriend so quickly like
this, '' Wood thought.
''Impossible, it''s impossible. She must be lying to me. I don''t believe it, '' he thought again.
With that thought in mind, he put his hand on Holley''s waist without hesitation. His pungent mouth
almost touched Holley''s neck.
"You''d better not touch me. This is a kind warning," Holley hissed. However, Wood justughed
mockingly at her.
"I am touching you. So what? What''s going to happen to me,dy of Hu family?" Once again, his filthy
hand grabbed Holley''s waist even tighter.
All this time, Holley had been closely observing the people walking by the gate. At that moment, she
vaguely saw someone. Her face suddenly turned.
"You! Let go of me! Don''t touch me! Let me go or I will call someone toe!" Holley shouted in fear.
Her facial expression showed that she was afraid and something terrible was happening.
Meanwhile, Wood was surprised by Holley''s sudden change. But when he saw how helpless and
terrified Holley was, he was so satisfied with her reactions. He felt like he had conquered this woman
and he was proud of it.
''Like I thought, she''s just a normal woman. She is nothing important. She lied to me, '' he thought
happily.
''There''s no way that she can threaten me, '' Wood thought and was delighted with himself.
His hand gripped Holley tighter than it was as his face inched closer to hers. His lips twisted in
satisfaction as they neared Holley''s own.
The sound of running footsteps suddenly got louder and louder.
Pak! The sound of a fist hitting Wood''s face was heard. Before he had realized what happened, he got
kicked from behind and fell on the floor like a garbage bag.
"Ouch!" Wood winced in pain. He tried to get up, but to no avail. Just beside him, Le also fell on the
floor. Her head hit the pavement and she felt disoriented for a minute.
Holley slowly looked up in fear, to find out ck standing angrily in front of her.
"How are you feeling? Did you get hurt?" ck rushed to Holley and asked. Holley shook her head
Then, she copsed in ck''s arms.
"This man...he wanted to..." Holley choked out. Sobs soon racked her body and she was unable to
speak normally.
"Damn it!"
ck turned his fiery gaze at Wood, like he was going to kill and torture him in a hundred different

ways.
''He dared touch my woman. He wants to die, '' ck thought.
At first, Wood was still busyining about his pain, but when ck looked at him, hepletely
forgot his sore backside.
His eyes were wide open and looked in disbelief at ck, and fear was written all over his face.
''Oh my God. It really is ck Hu, the young master of Hu Group. I saw him with his father Rex at a
banquet a few days earlier. I tried to talk to him with an excuse, but he didn''t mind me at all, '' Wood
thought of the previous events as he looked at ck''s face.
''I just wanted to hit on a girl, and I didn''t expect that I would be in a trouble with the young master of Hu
Group!
What am I going to do? I don''t want to die. I''ve heard that Rex''s ways of torturing are so cruel that
anyone who pisses him off will be thrown into the sea to feed fishes or will be dead without a face to
recognize, '' Wood kept thinking.
At once, Woody on his stomach with his knees on the floor. "I''m sorry, Mr. Hu. I''m sorry! I didn''t
recognize Miss Ye, and I didn''t mean to offend you. I''m sorry. I''m so sorry!" he apologized and begged
profusely.
However, ck didn''t say anything at all. He wanted to leave, and grabbed Holley''s arm.
"That woman on the floor is my friend. ck, I want to help her," Holley tugged on his sleeve and said.
At that moment, Le was still sprawled on the floor, drunk. She wasn''t aware of anything and didn''t
even know what to say when she saw Holley walk towards her.
ck relented to Holley''s request and helped her get Le up. Before they went away, he gave a good,
hard kick in Wood''s leg again.
"Thank you, Mr. Hu! Thank you for your lesson," Wood said as he kept bowing on the floor. He didn''t
even dared to mention the pain, even if he looked pathetic.
To stay alive was more important than anything. At that moment, Wood wanted to do nothing but thank
all the gods he''d ever prayed to.
On the other hand, ck helped Holley to get Le in the car. "Is this woman really a friend of yours?"
ck looked at Le and asked with a frown.
Le was such in a drunken stupor that she had been mouthing gibberish the whole time. And after all
that happened, her hair and clothes were a mess. She looked like a lunatic to him.
Holley nced at Le and looked at her appearance in disgust. However, she turned to ck and
kindly said, "She is indeed my friend, she just wasn''t in a good mood. She drank a little bit too much
today. I went to pick her up, but I didn''t expect that..." Holley paused mid-sentence and lowered her
head, like she was distressed.
