Nan Zhi pulled those security officers away, rushing towards Mu Sihan who had been surrounded from all sides.
When Mu Sihan saw Nan Zhi, a bright smile immediately appeared on his face. “Beautiful Princess.”
Nan Zhi walked in front of Mu Sihan, grabbing his hand tightly. She did not look at the others, and only stared into Mu Sihan’s bright black eyes. “What happened?”
Mu Sihan grabbed Nan Zhi’s hand instead, his handsome expression extremely miserable. He pointed at Pei Xuan, who was still lying on the floor in pain. “H-he asked me to crawl under him.”
Hearing this, Nan Zhi’s expression immediately darkened.
Her aura flared and became an icy chill. When her expression darkened, her eyes were especially cold and sharp, a layer of ice wrapping around her.
After spending time with Mu Sihan, she had somehow picked up his cold aura from when he was angry.
First she pulled Mu Sihan behind her, before turning towards Pei Xuan with sharp eyes that were as cold as steel. “Who and what are you to humiliate a Prince? Not to mention, he has not been abdicated yet. Even if he is no longer the Crown Prince, he’s still the Fourth Prince. You’re merely a dog for the Qiao family, what are you trying to show off here?”
Pei Xuan stared at Nan Zhi. When she walked over, he thought that she was as pretty as a Goddess that had came down from the heavens, and he could not help but feel adoration for her.
However, the moment she spoke, he thought that she was a female devil!
Waving towards the security officer to help him up, Pei Xuan was seething in anger. “What about you? How dare you talk to me like this?”
Nan Zhi scoffed coldly. “Who am I? At the Qiao family, I’m the Duke’s granddaughter, Qiao Yanze’s niece, while in the Royal family, I’m the Crown Prince’s girlfriend. So, who do you think I am?”
Nan Zhi walked in front of Pei Xuan, her lips curling up coldly as darkness flashed in her eyes.
Pei Xuan glared at her with red eyes. “What do you want tー?”
Slap!
Nan Zhi lifted her hand, slapping Pei Xuan ruthlessly in front of everyone.
Nan Zhi was not a normal woman. She knew self-defense, so her strength was naturally a long stronger than that of a normal girl.
Feeling the slap, Pei Xuan felt his molars loosening as he tasted blood in his mouth.
“B*tch, you dare to slap me?”
Nan Zhi smiled coldly. “Not only do I dare to hit you, I’m kicking you too.” With that said, she lifted her leg and kicked Pei Xuan at the same area where Mu Sihan did.
Pei Xuan howled in pain once more.
“I’m not going to let you off!” Pei Xuan cupped his lower body, jumping on the spot in pain. “Someone come, kick these two violent people out!”
When Pei Xuan was speaking, Nan Zhi had already called Qiao Yanze and had turned on the speakers as well.
Hearing Pei Xuan threaten Nan Zhi, Qiao Yanze immediately shouted at Pei Xuan through the phone. “If it wasn’t for your parents crying and begging my Mom for your sake, do you think my Mom would let you go take charge of the resort? You only just went over, but you think your wings are strong enough now? Do you know who you’re talking to? You told Zhizhi to scram, but I’ll make you scram first! What are you?!”
Pei Xuan was so scared his expression immediately changed. “Yanze, your Mom already agreed to let me come here, how can you take back that decision just because you want to?”
“The official appointment letter had not been sent out yet, has it? Is your brain made of sh*t or is it filled with rocks? Don’t you know that my Mom and I dote on Zhizhi the most?”
“Yanze, I’m wrong, I’m wrong! Please just let me apologize!”
Qiao Yanze couldn’t be bothered continuing the conversation with Pei Xuan. After calling Zhizhi, his extremely fierce tone to Pei Xuan earlier changed immediately into a gentle one. “Help me slap that ruthless piece of sh*t a few more times. Your grandma only let him take charge of the resort because of his father. If he continues to be so arrogant, I’ll give you a position so high that you can remove his position immediately!”
“Thank you, Uncle.” Nan Zhi felt extremely warm and grateful. Her uncle really loved her so much that he was not willing to let her suffer even a bit.
However, she felt slightly guilty towards him. Ever since Mu Sihan became retarded, she had remained in the resort and did not have the time to go visit him.
Although she had that Xiao Ying investigated, but she could not find anything out of the norm.
She could only watch as her uncle fall even more.
…
After Qiao Yanze finished his call with Nan Zhi, he saw Xiao Ying standing not too far away once he looked up.
Her baby bump was slightly showing now, though it was still not too obvious.
They no longer planned to get engaged, and instead, wanted to get married immediately.
No matter how Madam Qiao objected to their relationship, it was more or less inevitable that the two of them were going to get married!
“Yanze, were you in a call with Zhizhi just now?” Xiao Ying walked to the sofa, sitting on Qiao Yanze’s lap as she moved his hand over her baby bump. “Your son is jealous now, your tone to Zhizhi was too gentle!”
Qiao Yanze tapped Xiao Ying’s nose, adoration filling his eyes. “Is our son jealous or are you the one that’s jealous?”
Xiao Ying pouted. “Can’t I be jealous? I don’t see you treating me so gently usually.”
Qiao Yanze hugged Xiao Ying, resting his chin on her shoulder as he smiled. “Are you even being jealous of my niece? It hadn’t been easy for Zhizhi since she was young, and our Qiao family actually made a lot of mistakes before we finally acknowledged her, so she suffered quite a bit back then.”
Xiao Ying hugged Qiao Yanze’s neck, resting her head on his shoulders. She said gently, “I’m just joking. Zhizhi will be my niece in the future too, and I can’t wait to dote on her as well!”
As Qiao Yanze caressed Xiao Ying’s long hair, his eyes were filled with adoration as he stared at the back of her head.
What he liked most about Xiao Ying was that she was a lot more understanding that other girls. She was not materialistic and she was gentle and considerate as well.
Xiao Ying buried her face into Qiao Yanze’s chest, feeling his gentle gaze on her as her heart started to hurt uncontrollably.
Her fingers holding onto his collars softly were sparkling with barely-restrained tears.
…
At the resort.
After Nan Yao managed to take some advantage from Nan Zhi, she returned to her villa happily.
Ever since she gave birth, she had been letting the maid take care of her child, while she rarely took care of her child herself.
She would put on makeup, look at fashion magazines or go shopping everyday.
After she got the maid to bring her son to get some sunlight in the courtyard, she returned to her room and played with her fingernails while seated in front of her vanity.
Suddenly, a loud flurry of footsteps approached the room.
Nan Yao hurriedly turned around, extremely shocked when she saw Pei Xuan being brought in by two security officers.
“Oh my god, what happened to you?”
Pei Xuan was furious. “What are you still standing there for? Hurry and get the family doctor to come over!”
Nan Yao trembled in fear. “Alright, alright, I’ll call the doctor immediately.”
After the doctor examined Pei Xuan’s injury, Nan Yao called the doctor to the side. She stammered as she asked, “I heard that he’s injured there. Is it serious? Would it affect that ability of his in the future?”
“I cannot give a definite answer for now as we will only know after he recovers.”
After the doctor left, Nan Yao returned to the room.
Pei Xuan was sprawled on the bed with a dark expression. When he saw Nan Yao enter, he shouted in anger, “What? Are you waiting for me to lose my capability? So that you can go out and cheat on me?”
