"Do you think we can defeat that guy this time?"

Song Ci fiddled with the thorns on the small cactus on Yan Jiang's desk. She sighed and said, "I'm afraid it's not that easy. You should know about Li Feng's pursuit of me back then."

"I've heard a little about this, but I don't know the details. We hadn't met again at that time. What's the matter? Why did you suddenly bring up Li Feng when things were going well? Aren't you afraid that Mr. Han would get jealous if he found out?"

"We have a very good relationship and won't have any estrangement because of those people." Song Ci pressed her finger on a sharp thorn and circled it. The movement was very gentle and did not prick her finger.

While playing with the cactus, she said, "In my second year of high school, Li Feng got a girlfriend who was an entertainer to impress me. On his girlfriend's birthday, he chartered a cruise ship in Nanxing City to celebrate her birthday. Li Feng invited many friends, including me."

"I knew Li Feng wanted to confront me, and since I couldn't escape, I had no choice but to go. But do you know what happened at that party?"

Yan Jiang frowned slightly and asked in a low voice, "What happened? Did someone die?"

"No. I was on the cruise ship that day and somehow lost my phone. When I went to my cabin to look for it, I saw..."

Song Ci felt sick when she thought of the scene she had witnessed that year. "I saw several strong young men assaulting a little girl. I was so scared at the time. I really wanted to help the girl, but I was afraid..."

Song Ci clenched her fists, tears welling in her eyes, and she felt incredibly guilty. "I was scared. I was only 17 at the time, and I looked... I was afraid that if I went in, not only would I not be able to help that girl, but I'd also be bullied."

Seeing Song Ci's shoulders trembling, Yan Jiang quickly put his arm around her shoulders and comforted her: "Don't blame yourself too much. Your worries are right. You are beautiful, young, and have lost both parents and are being fostered in someone else's home. If you really go to jail, I'm afraid you won't be able to come out intact."

If she really loses her virginity, who will seek justice for her?

"I understand the logic, but I still feel guilty when I think about that incident occasionally. Although I was scared at the time, I still planned to go in and save her. But just as I was about to go in, I was stopped by someone."

Song Ci told Yan Jiang: "The person who held me back was Jiang Guchuan. He covered my mouth, brought me to the deck, and told me not to act rashly. He said: If you can't even ensure your own safety, saving others is not saving lives, it's killing yourself."

"I knew what Jiang Guchuan said was right. I endured it all night. After the ship docked, I got off the cruise ship and secretly called the police. I don't know if the police went to the scene to investigate, and I don't know what happened to the girl in the end, but those murderers are still at large..."

This was the first time Yan Jiang heard Song Ci talk about this. He asked Song Ci, "Who are those people? Do you know them?"

Song Ci licked her lips subconsciously, "Hmm."

"Who is it?"

Song Ci glanced at Yan Jiang and said cautiously in a low voice: "Each of them was not someone I could afford to offend at that time."

Each of them was a powerful young man in Wangdong City. And what about her? She was just an adopted daughter of the Mu family, and the Mu family's little wealth was not enough to be in Wangdong City.

What do you want her to use to fight them?

"It would be fine if you didn't tell me about this, but you mentioned it but didn't tell me the details. It's like there's a cat inside me, constantly scratching my heart. Tell me what our relationship is. I won't tell anyone else."

"You are Mrs. Han now, the first lady of Wangdong City. Whose name would you not dare to mention?" Yan Jiang thought Song Ci was too cautious.

Yan Jiang loved Song Ci like his own sister. He would not say anything bad to Song Ci, nor would he do anything bad to Song Ci.

Song Ci was distracted and didn't even notice that his finger was pricked by the cactus thorns.

Yan Jiang saw blood flowing down the thorn. He quickly took Song Ci's hand away and pressed her fingertips with a cotton swab. "Don't be distracted. Your hand is hurt."

"I was just thinking about something." Song Ci glanced outside the door and confirmed that no one was passing by before saying, "It was Li Feng, An Xu, Gu Qinchuan, and the young master of the Ying family named Ying Ji."

Every time Song Ci said a name, Yan Jiang would frown.

“It’s actually them…”

"Yeah. Li Feng pursued me very aggressively back then, using all sorts of methods. I was young then, and a bit vain, so I almost agreed to his pursuit. But what I saw that night made me completely afraid of Li Feng. From then on, even if he held a knife to my neck, I would never agree to his confession again."

She can fall in love with a scoundrel, but she can never fall in love with a beast.

Yan Jiang hugged Song Ci's arm, rubbed her cold slender arm, and comforted her: "Don't think about that girl anymore. It's been so long, maybe she's married."

"I think that girl's life is ruined. If this happened to me, I would probably go crazy. But I am already a brave enough girl."

How many girls can live on bravely, fall in love, get married and have children after experiencing such insults?

"Think about it, Gu Qinchuan dared to bully common women back then. Now, many years have passed, they have grown up and become extremely powerful. No one could bring him down back then, but now, it's probably even harder."
