Nan Zhi comforted herself, but how could Qin Xi'er not understand? She smiled and nodded, "Let's go."

The three bought red silk and wrote down their wishes.

What are your wishes?

Lin Youyou looked on with curiosity, and Nanzhi smiled at her, "What about yours?"

Lin Youyou spoke triumphantly:

"Of course I want to never have to worry about food or drink for the rest of my life, and I want to eat all the delicacies in the world."

Her words amused Qin Xier, who was still feeling down. "This wish is really Lin Youyou's."

Seeing her smile, Nanzhi asked:

"And what about yours, Xi'er?"

Qin Xi'er blushed slightly and hid the red silk she had written on behind her back. Her wish was to be with the person she loved.

How could she possibly show it? Even though she had drawn such a fortune slip, Qin Xi'er didn't want to give up. She wanted to work hard, and maybe, unintentionally, Xu Chaoci would also develop feelings for her?

"What about yours, Zhizhi?" Lin Youyou was curious about the wish written by Nanzhi. Nanzhi didn't hide it and unfolded the red silk. On it was written a sentence: "I only hope that Qin Xier and Lin Youyou's wish will come true."

Her words made Lin Youyou rush over and hug Nanzhi, choking back tears as she spoke:

"Zhizhi, Zhizhi, why are you so good to me? I'm starting to fall in love with you."

Qin Xi'er couldn't help but feel her eyes well up with tears.

After hanging the wishing red ribbon on the tree, the group went down the mountain.

The path down was much easier, and Lin Youyou didn't feel tired at all. She kept chattering about some interesting things.

However, the three of them never expected to be surrounded.

When we got down the mountain and went to the parking lot, we were surrounded by several men.

Nanzhi frowned. She remembered the bald man; he was the one who sold beef at the market.

Lin Youyou and Qin Xier rarely encountered this situation, and they were both a little scared at the moment.

They were even more terrifying than the group of thugs that Qin Xi'er had been hired by Lian Chuchu's admirers. They were all fierce-looking and quite old, mostly in their thirties.

The bald man took a drag of his cigarette, squinted, and stared at Nan Zhi with a fierce look in his eyes.

He exhaled a smoke ring, then spoke with ill intent:

"Are you coming with us willingly, or do we have to do it to you?"

A glint of excitement flashed in Nan Zhi's eyes. It had been a long time since she had made a move, and today was her chance.

"Miss, are you a pervert?"

Miaomiao was speechless, while Nanzhi was secretly laughing, but her face showed a bitter expression.

"Brother, I...we have no grudge against you, you..."

"Enough with the nonsense, I'll show you what it means to try to steal a chicken but end up losing the rice instead."

After saying that, the bald man beckoned his brothers to come forward. Nan Zhi quickly stepped back, her tone pleading, "Wait, I'll go with you, but my friends..."

Upon hearing this, the bald man spat, revealing a fierce expression, and said directly:

"You fucking think I'm stupid enough to let them call the police?"

Lin Youyou and Qin Xier tugged at Nan Zhi's clothes, hiding behind her. "Zhizhi, what, what should we do?"

Qin Xi'er was already on the verge of tears. Nan Zhi had indeed made a move in the alleyway of the school that time, but those people didn't look as scary as these people now. They were strong and tall, and some even had scars on their faces. They looked really formidable.

Nanzhi Side Road:

"You two will stay close to me from now on, understand?"

Qin Xi'er and Lin Youyou both nodded. They had no ability to fight back, so at this time, they could only make sure they didn't cause any trouble.

"What are you babbling about? Let's go."

The bald man urged impatiently.

Nan Zhi wore a fawning smile. "Big brother, we'll go with you. Can you please not hurt us?"

The bald man sneered, "When you tricked me back then, why didn't you think this day would come?"

His face immediately turned fierce. "You think you can leave unscathed? Don't even think about it."

Nan Zhi: "..." I'm so scared.

Am I still a child, destined to bear everything alone?

Meow Meow Machine couldn't stand Nan Zhi's inner monologue and rolled his eyes helplessly—or rather, he thought he was rolling his eyes.

Nanzhi and her two companions were still taken away by these fierce-looking men.

The mountain was located in the suburbs, and Nanzhi obediently followed them without doing anything out of line.

After winding its way through the streets, it finally stopped in front of an abandoned factory.

Despite the mottled exterior and the messy, dilapidated courtyard, Nan Zhi kept Qin Xi'er and Lin Youyou by her side the whole time, not daring to relax for a moment.

She herself is fine, but if these people use these two people to threaten her, then it will be very troublesome.

Parking inside the factory, the bald man and his gang immediately surrounded Nan Zhi and her two companions. There were seven or eight of them, but they didn't really care about these little girls.

I figured I'd just give him a good beating.

"That man isn't here this time, so why aren't you being arrogant anymore?"

The bald man stood in the very center, feeling incredibly satisfied, his eyes filled with malicious intent.

Nanzhi lowered her head, concealing the expression in her eyes, and remained silent. To the enemy, this appeared as fear. The bald man sneered.

"You bitch, scared now? Too late. You made me lose face in the market, today I'll show you what happens when you mess with me."

Nan Zhi's lips curled into a smile, and she suddenly looked up. "Are you sure you want to teach me a lesson?"

The bald man, his face grim, took two steps forward and stood in front of Nanzhi, his eyes fixed on her like those of a venomous snake. "What do you think?"

He then raised his calloused hand and raised it toward Nanzhi's face, but the slap stopped in mid-air and did not fall.

Then there was a loud "thud," and the bald man fell backward, crashing hard onto the ground. The sound was so loud it seemed to shake the earth.

The bald man was stunned for a moment, then stared wide-eyed at Nan Zhi in disbelief, unable to believe that he had just been kicked out by her.

He gritted his teeth and got up, his aura even more terrifying than before. He spat out a mouthful of saliva, glared fiercely at Nan Zhi, and raised his hand, "Brothers, kill this bitch."

Immediately, like a swarm of bees, all eight rushed towards the three of them. Lin Youyou and Qin Xier stared wide-eyed in tension, not daring to blink. Nan Zhi supported the two of them on the shoulders, and with a light leap, kicked the first person who rushed over away. After a round, all eight big men were forced to retreat by Nan Zhi's kick.

Nan Zhi grabbed Lin Youyou and Qin Xier's hands and ran quickly toward the wall, saying, "Stay here and don't move."

With these two people standing here, Nanzhi can focus on fighting against Baldy and his men.

"Oh shit."

"This woman knows martial arts."

"Damn, let's kill her together."

The group of men were clearly habitual fighters who had done plenty of bad things before, and this time was no exception.

A man's strength is not insignificant after all. Fortunately, Nanzhi knows some of the tricks of martial arts and knows where a person's most vulnerable spot is.

She fearlessly raised her head, smiling at the group, "Then let's all come together."
