The men were not professional fighters; it was obvious from the way they randomly waved their crowbars. Fang Tong relied on her petite figure to nimbly dodge left and right, but she could not help but be hit several times. She gritted her teeth and held on, waiting for two men to exhaust themselves. When she saw that they were losing steam, she grab one of the men's wrists and used his weight to knock the other man to the ground with his crowbar. She then took his crowbar and knocked him unconscious with a backhand.
The three men collapsed to the ground. Fang Tong supported herself with the crowbar in her hand and looked at the three men breathlessly. "Go back and tell your employer that I will find him and repay him tenfold for what happened today!"
After saying that, Fang Tong got into the car. She started the car and drove haphazardly back to the Gu Manor.
Fortunately, it was daytime and Old Master Gu and Bai Ping were both at work. Fang Tong endured the pain and stumbled back to her room. As soon as she entered the bedroom, she fell to pieces at the door.
It was pain, weakness, and lingering fear. If the three thugs were professional fighters, she would have been in deep trouble!
Ever since the Fang family got in trouble, people had tried to kick her while she was down. There were also people who held grudges against her, but those who had wanted to destroy her innocence...
A few names flashed through Fang Tong's mind, but in the end, she did not have any clue.
After resting for a while, Fang Tong grabbed the doorknob and stood up shakily. She locked the door and walked into the bathroom. She lifted her blouse gently and took it off gingerly.
In the mirror, the fair skin on her back was now covered with bruises. Some parts were even bleeding. Fang Tong was naked as she looked for disinfectant alcohol and cotton swabs from the drawer in the room. She wanted to apply some antibiotic ointment to the wound on her back, but her arms were not long enough. After more than ten minutes, she only managed to hover around the edge of the wound.
"Forget it!"
Fang Tong was a little demoralized. She could not apply the medicine on her own, but if she went downstairs for help, Old Master Gu and Bai Ping would certainly be alerted.
Fang Xin's new factory was about to open. Bai Ping had agreed to let Fang Tong work. If she found out that she had been attacked and injured, she might not let her out of the house again. That would not be worth it.
After much consideration, Fang Tong decided to drop it.
She put away the alcohol and gauze, lay in bed and carefully pulled the thin blanket only up to her buttocks to avoid touching the wound.
Fang Tong gritted her teeth and endured the burning pain on her back. Soon, she dozed off.
In her sleep, Fang Tong felt someone pulling her blanket. She frowned in dissatisfaction and moaned. Then, a cool feeling crawled all over her back, alleviating the burning pain caused by the injury. She moaned in comfort and the corners of her mouth curled up slightly.
In the second half of the night, Fang Tong was woken up by the cold.
She sat up sleepily and looked at the dark room. She turned on the bedside lamp. It was already one in the morning. She had been in so much pain during the day and fell asleep just like that.
The windows to the balcony were not closed. The cold wind blew at night, and she was not wearing any clothes. No wonder she felt cold.
Fang Tong picked up her pajamas from the floor and put them on. She walked barefoot to the balcony and closed the windows. She was about to go back to bed when she suddenly stopped.
Her back did not seem to hurt as much anymore...
Fang Tong touched her back with her hand. The wound was still painful, but there was a transparent gel-like substance on her fingertips.
She lowered her head and smelled it. It was ointment.
