You can't do this! We've been divorced for so many years! He's just a stingy, petty, and ungentlemanly piece of trash ex-boyfriend, a mere shell of a person, what's there to miss!
Resolutely, she pushed him away, "Get lost! You're drunk, stop looking at me like that!"
Zhan Bei Jue took in the shift in her eyes, pleased that his masculine charm had thrown her off balance.
Taking a step back, he sneered, "Jiang Nan Fang, your skills aren't good enough, yet you like to play hard to get. You think I can't see through you?"
"See through what? How am I playing hard to get?"
"You say you want a child, but in reality, you just want to get close to me and gain my attention. You weren't satisfied being Mrs. Zhan, and now you regret it, wanting me to marry you again."
"?" Jiang Nan Fang instantly snapped out of her fluttery feelings from the previous second.
"You want me to marry you again? Zhan Bei Jue, even though you're good-looking and have some money, and a right to be arrogant, you don't have to be this narcissistic, do you?"
"There aren't many toads with three legs in the world, but there are plenty of two-legged men. Which eye of yours saw that I can't live without you?"
"..."
This woman! Did she know what she was saying?!
"I knew you couldn't stand to be alone, your mind is full of nothing but men. What right do people like you have to talk to me about children?"
"..." She was tricked into his narrative again. She hadn't done anything, so why was it turning into her mind being full of men?
He was malicious and had a vicious tongue. It was pointless to win an argument with him, and having lost this round, Jiang Nan Fang decided to stop arguing.
"My private life is none of your business. I'm speaking to you now as the child's mother, Zhan Bei Jue, when are you returning my child? I've been patient for over a month, don't think I'm easy to bully!"
Hmm. He could see that. Not easy to bully. With a bunch of single men surrounding her daily, her confidence had inflated, making her unaware of her own limitations.
He really wanted to see just how difficult she was to bully when she was angry.
Zhan Bei Jue said, "I will not give you the child, Jiang Nan Fang, don't dream about it. Bring out whatever tricks you have. If you've run out of moves, get out quickly. I never want to see you again."
"..."
Never give it to her? Then why did he mention earlier that the new product was wasting his time?
This inhumane, capricious, and unprincipled scumbag!
"Bang!"
Enraged, Jiang Nan Fang angrily lifted her leg and kicked the elevator wall.
"Don't force me to use force. It's just the two of us now. Zhan, if you want to die, I can give you a complete corpse."
With your strength? A weak woman weighing less than ninety pounds and more than twenty centimeters shorter than me, trying to intimidate me with threats?
Zhan Bei Jue almost laughed himself to death.
However, he laughed too soon because he was completely unaware of Jiang Nan Fang's true capabilities.
With that one kick, in less than three seconds, the running elevator suddenly shook violently, rattled with a clunking sound, accompanied by the flickering overhead lights. It then stopped, stuck halfway up in the darkness.
The elevator had broken down.
The elevator in Tianfu International, a prime apartment building under the Zhan Corporation, had broken down just because this woman stomped her foot!
Such poor quality, wasn't this the same as slapping Zhan Bei Jue in the face?
Zhan Bei Jue immediately lost interest in teasing her. He took out his phone, turned on the screen, and prepared to scold the staff before rescuing himself.
What made him even angrier was yet to come. Ah Zhong had forgotten to charge his private phone today, and the phone only had 5% battery left.
Furthermore, there was no signal. He couldn't even vent his anger on the spot.
There was an emergency call button on the elevator wall, but whether it was due to the poor quality of the elevator or Jiang Nan Fang's immense strength, it was now powered off, making even basic self-rescue impossible.
Seeing him with a darkened expression fumbling with his phone for a while to no avail, Jiang Nan Fang couldn't help but let out a gloating snort, "Tch."
Realizing his expression had been seen by her, Zhan Bei Jue locked his phone screen and leaned against the wall, "What are you laughing at? If I can't get out, neither can you."
"Indeed. But I don't have claustrophobia."
