Yuwen Hao’s hand landed on Xia Wanqing’s face, and he said with a greasy tone, “Xia Wanqing, remember to handle things properly tomorrow. Otherwise, your next days will be difficult to endure.”
Xia Wanqing immediately nodded, “Okay, I understand.”
Yuwen Hao left, and Xia Wanqing’s heart, which had been hanging in the air, finally settled. As long as this man was gone, she would be safe.
Ji Wenyun appeared. He glanced at Xia Wanqing. The moment Xia Wanqing saw Ji Wenyun, she wished she could pounce on him. And so she did. She truly pounced on him, but she didn't expect Ji Wenyun to dodge her directly, and she fell to the ground.
Lying on the ground, Xia Wanqing looked at Ji Wenyun and said pleasantries. But Ji Wenyun made no move.
Finally, seeing that Ji Wenyun was slow to act, Xia Wanqing, who was on the ground, decided to get up herself. Because her movements were quite loud, people around looked over. Naturally, she absolutely could not allow herself to lose face.
In the end, Ji Wenyun left. And Xia Wanqing gained nothing.
Xia Wanqing hated Ji Wenyun to death. Why, after she had prepared for so long, was this the result she got? The cause of this result was An Nuan. Yes, it must have been An Nuan who harmed her. If it weren't for An Nuan, she wouldn't have ended up like this. A lot of unwillingness welled up in her heart, but at this moment, all her words were swallowed down and not spoken. After all, she had no backing now. This chance was gone. Then she thought, there would be another chance. It was just that she didn't know how many more such chances there would be. Xia Wanqing left, not reconciled. In her heart, there was a lot of reluctance, but she could only accept it.
…
Yuwen Hao left, fantasizing about his upcoming happy life. But he didn't know that what awaited him was not happiness or good days, but a plunge into hell. Yuwen Hao hummed a song, walking arrogantly, when suddenly someone blocked his path directly. His expression changed, but thinking about the good days he had recently, he looked at the person in front of him and said smugly, “I’m in a good mood today, so I won’t bother with you. Just get out of my sight immediately.”
Huo Yuxuan found it somewhat amusing. He had been watching this person for a long time. Of course, he had seen everything that had just happened clearly. Most importantly, he had recorded the entire incident. For this Yuwen Hao, his future days were predictable. Looking at his smug demeanor now, Huo Yuxuan thought that he really didn't know when his good days would end.
Just as Yuwen Hao was about to say something else, his gaze fell upon Nangong Jin. His face turned pale. He almost cried out loud. Just then, Huo Yuxuan, using a handkerchief, covered his mouth. He finally felt relieved, finally preventing the guy from making a sound. Huo Yuxuan said coldly into his ear, “If you want to live, you’d better shut up obediently.” “Oh, and don't make any unnecessary noises, or you'll die a terrible death.”
Yuwen Hao trembled all over, thinking that he hadn't offended Nangong Jin. Was Nangong Jin holding onto him because of Xia Wanqing? “Young Master Nangong… I… I didn’t mean to deal with Xia Wanqing, I… I…” Yuwen Hao thought about what he had just said to Xia Wanqing, and Xia Wanqing’s threats. Only then did he become afraid. No wonder Xia Wanqing had said those words. It was him, being reckless. At this moment, he truly regretted it. Yuwen Hao wished he could turn back time. “Young Master Nangong, I know I was wrong. I…” Yuwen Hao said nervously, his face completely bloodless. He had never expected to be targeted by Nangong Jin. Even more so, he hadn't expected Xia Wanqing's actions to be so swift. Thinking that his fate would be miserable, Yuwen Hao trembled all over. He couldn't even speak properly. “Young Master Nangong, I won’t dare again, I absolutely won’t dare. Next time, next time I see Xia Wanqing, I’ll walk around her.” He directly stuffed the money he had just taken from Xia Wanqing into Huo Yuxuan’s hand and begged Nangong Jin, “It’s all here, it’s all here. I got it from Xia Wanqing just now, and I haven’t touched any of it. Here you go.” Huo Yuxuan looked at what was in his hand, blinked in surprise at first, and then accepted it. It was free money, and it was delivered directly to his hand. Not accepting it would be a disservice to himself. “I… I… I really don’t have anything else…” Yuwen Hao’s legs suddenly went weak, and he collapsed onto the ground. “Please, Young Master Nangong, spare my life. I know I was wrong and will change. Next time, next time I will never do this again.” Yuwen Hao was almost crying for his parents. He had thought today would be a good day, but now it seemed it was his day of disaster. “Your life isn't worth much, why would I want your life?” Hearing this, Yuwen Hao felt relieved. He just wondered, if he didn’t want his life, then what did he want? His expression suddenly became extremely ugly. For a moment, he didn't know what to do. “You just need to help me do one thing, and everything you've done will be as if it never happened.” Yuwen Hao was stunned for a moment, his mind went blank. Very quickly, he reacted and immediately said, “Don’t say one thing, I’ll do ten things if you ask.” “He will tell you what to do,” Nangong Jin said, pointing to Huo Yuxuan, who was standing by the side. Huo Yuxuan, who was called out, was stunned for a moment, but immediately said, “Okay.” As long as he could save his life. After hearing what Huo Yuxuan said, Yuwen Hao’s eyes widened, looking at the person in front of him, even doubting if he had misheard. It turned out that he wasn’t asked to keep a secret, but to expose everything Xia Wanqing had done. He also learned that Nangong Jin was targeting Xia Wanqing, and the person he was protecting was An Nuan. So, all the things he had done for Xia Wanqing over the years were actually a deception by Xia Wanqing. Xia Wanqing had said that she had someone behind her, and that not only Ji Wenyun was helping her, but even Nangong Jin was behind her helping her. Previously, he had completely believed what Xia Wanqing had said. Because he had personally witnessed Xia Wanqing meeting Nangong Jin and speaking with him. As for what they said, he didn't know. After all, they were too far apart. That day, he happened to run into Xia Wanqing, and Xia Wanqing pretended to have an unspeakable relationship with Nangong Jin in front of him. Now that he thought about it, it was indeed extremely amusing.
