After Mistakenly Binding The Matchmaker System

Boss's Favorite (26)

The incident happened too suddenly. Li Shu still looked somewhat dazed, and the man with the knife was already approaching. 1314 was spinning in circles anxiously, wishing it could sound the alarm in the host's mind, but Li Shu had forcefully disabled that function in the previous world, so now it was helpless.

The bodyguard in the distance realized something was wrong and rushed forward, trying to catch the man before he got close to Li Shu.

All these actions took place in a split second. Finally, people around began to realize what was happening, letting out a scream as the crowd started to panic.

On the other end of the phone, Mo Yanzhi also heard the noise, and asked anxiously, "What's happening over there?" At this moment, he regretted not being by Li Shu's side. He couldn't even know what was happening to the other party in the first place.

Filled with regret, he even had the impulse to keep Li Shu by his side from now on. If Li Shu had been with him, none of these extremely dangerous incidents would have occurred. Even if there were close calls every time, what good was it? Just the word "fright" was enough for him to be unable to endure.

Time waits for no one. In the blink of an eye, the man holding the knife was already close to Li Shu, and just five steps away from the bodyguard.

As if anticipating the forthcoming success, the man grinned widely, excitement gleaming in his eyes. Once he finished this deal, he wouldn't have to cater to those people's whims anymore!

"Young Master Li—" It was too late! The bodyguard's forehead had beads of sweat. They had been repeatedly instructed by the boss to ensure no harm would come to Li Shu. If he were to get injured under his watch today, how could he face the boss?

Amidst Mo Yanzhi's anxiety, the bodyguard's intense glare, and the assailant's manic excitement, Li Shu made a move. He first swayed to the left, as if it was just a coincidence that he happened to avoid the stabbing knife.

The man who thought he'd hit his target with one strike was stunned for a moment, his eyes widening in disbelief as he looked at Li Shu.

The young man was holding a mobile phone in his right hand and seemed to be talking to the other party, his expression still confused. Well, after drinking so much...it was already quite an achievement to be somewhat sober.

What was he thinking?

The distraction lasted only a moment. The man adjusted his stance and thrust the knife toward Li Shu once again.

This time, Li Shu didn't move, and the man's excitement grew. He just escaped with good luck, but he didn't believe that the God of Luck could still come to him this time.

The knife was just a finger's width away from Li Shu's body. The bodyguard stretched out his hand and was just a step away from catching the assailant. Time seemed to freeze at that moment. The people around held their breath and concentrated for fear of disturbing something.

With success within reach, the man's grin widened, and his gaze toward Li Shu became even more fervent.

In his eyes, Li Shu had become an alluring promise of fame and easily attainable wealth.

But in an instant, everything changed.

The knife touched Li Shu's clothes, but only barely.

There was a huge resistance on his hand, and the man's excitement froze, his expression stiffening in a comical manner.

Lowering his head, he saw a slender hand grasping his wrist. It looked fragile, but even after exerting all his strength, he couldn't move forward even a centimeter.
