The umbrella stand next to them was accidentally kicked over.
Li Yuqing heard the noise and immediately ran in.
Zhuo Jian griped the man's wrist with both hands, the man holding a knife against it, and upon hearing the sound of the door being busted in, she desperately mumbled through her obstruction.
Li Yuqing turned his head and saw a thin, tall man in a black leather jacket, wearing a duckbill cap and a mask, holding a knife and attempting to slash Zhuo Jian's throat.
"Don't you dare," Li Yuqing shouted instinctively.
At that moment, Zhuo Jian realized with clarity that this person was here to take her life, unreasonably, so she took the opportunity, while the man was distracted by Li Yuqing, to lift her foot and stomp hard with her seven-centimeter high heels onto the man's foot.
The man was wearing mesh sneakers, and it was unclear which toe she had forcefully broken.
Seeing the man bending over in pain, Li Yuqing immediately hurled his briefcase fiercely at him.
