Anan looked at the blocked roads ahead and behind and said, "Fourth Young Madam, please don't get out of the car. I'll go help Liu Qing."

"Don't do it," Shangguan Wu reminded him.

"We'll see."

Anan got out of the car, locked the doors, and strode towards Liu Qing.

As Shangguan Wu watched those people retreat to both sides, allowing Anan to enter the encirclement, her delicate eyebrows furrowed slightly.

Just then, her phone rang.

It was Rongrong calling.

As soon as she answered the phone, she heard a male voice say, "Miss Shangguan, please get out of the car and come in."

Shangguan Wu narrowed her eyes: "The car doors are locked, I can't get out."

Soon, she saw what was happening on Anan's side. It looked like he was asking for something, and without even guessing, she knew it was the car keys.

It seems they have no intention of taking action.

Shangguan Wu asked in a calm and composed tone, "What is your name, sir?"

At the same time, she pressed the record button.

"I'm just a florist. I'm here today on someone's behalf to tell you that if you take something you shouldn't, you'd better return it as soon as possible. Otherwise, things like today will happen many more times. It's okay if you get hurt, but it's not good if your friends get involved. Don't you agree?"

Upon hearing this, Shangguan Wu's pupils contracted slightly, and a person instantly came to mind.

"I wonder what I shouldn't have taken?"

"I don't know either, Miss Shangguan can only figure it out herself."

Suddenly, Liu Qing and Anan started fighting.

Shangguan Wu frowned, his tone turning cold: "Tell your men to stop!"

“They are not my people, I can’t order them around.”

"If you want what I have, don't touch my people!"

Shangguan Wu frowned, her icy voice carrying a warning. Before the other party could speak, she turned the tables on him: "The Xiao family treats you like family, but isn't it a bit unethical of you to betray them like this, Quan Tianrui?"

At this moment, in the office of the flower planting base.

The florist had two phones, both on speakerphone.

One screen showed Wubao, while the other displayed the WeChat interface. Quan Shao sent a message: 【Pretend you don't know!】

The florist said, "Miss Shangguan, you've got the wrong person. I hope you'll think about it again and not steal other people's things. After all, what doesn't belong to you will never belong to you!"

Shangguan Wu's eyes darkened, and a sarcastic smile curled at the corner of her lips: "I feel like you're insulting my intelligence."

Florist owner: "..."

Quan Tianrui: "..."

"Why would you buy a building if you don't have money? Is it my fault that I have money?"

Shangguan Wu's light and casual tone had a hint of infuriating sarcasm. She clicked her tongue and continued, "Quan Tianrui should be able to hear this, right? Let me give you a piece of advice: if you hide behind others for too long, be careful you don't really become something that can't be seen in the light."

The florist stared wide-eyed, held his breath, and dared not utter a single word.

Enraged, Quan Tianrui hung up the voice call and typed: 【Break the legs of her two bodyguards! Warn her, this time it was the men who hit her, next time it will be her!】

Upon seeing this, the florist sternly warned, "Miss Shangguan, this time it's someone who's teaching you a lesson, but next time, you won't be so lucky!"

"Hello!"

Shangguan Wu frowned; the other party had already hung up the phone.

She hoped Quan Tianrui would take direct action against her so she could have a chance to send him to prison, but she had already given him that chance. Instead, he only disciplined the people around her. Did the downfall of the Quan family have such a big impact on him? Didn't he still have the Xiao family to help him?

Shangguan Wu looked worriedly in the direction of Liu Qing and Anan.

Suddenly a car sped toward the non-mainstream group.

The crowd dispersed immediately.

"Damn it!"

"Do you even know how to drive?"

"They seem to be in cahoots!"

Before they could react, a police siren blared as it approached.

It's finally here!

Shangguan Wu breathed a sigh of relief.

Du Jian drove the non-mainstream crowd away, and Liu Qing and Anan found an opportunity to return to the car.

Shangguan Wu asked, "Are any of you injured?"

"No," Liu Qing shook his head.

"Those petty scoundrels, how could they possibly hurt me?" If Anan didn't have some skill, he wouldn't have been chosen by the Fourth Young Master to protect his mistress.

After the police car stopped, Liu Qing and Anan got out and helped the police arrest more than a dozen non-mainstream men.

"We were just joking, we didn't actually lay a hand on anyone!"

"Yes, we are all good citizens, how could we do something like fighting!"

"..."

A dozen or so men were chattering away, making a racket like a market.

"Shut up, all of you!"

A middle-aged police officer shouted sternly, and the scene immediately fell silent.

"Fugui, you bunch of people never do any real work. You're all regulars at our police station. Don't you realize that the more you say, the more mistakes you make?"

For a time, the non-mainstream groups were all scolded and became quite dejected.

Shangguan Wu got out of the car, walked up to the middle-aged police officer, and pleaded, "Officer, they are acting under orders. The person behind them is in the base. He is threatening my friend. Please rescue my friend. Thank you."

"Are there still hostages in our hands?"

The middle-aged police officer was startled. He put his right hand on the pistol at his waist, selected two men to stay behind, and then led the way into the base: "You two stay here and keep an eye on them. The rest of you come with me!"

Upon seeing this, Shangguan Wu blinked.

"Don't worry, Miss. With Captain Zhou here, your friend will be fine!" a young police officer reassured her.

Shangguan Wu thanked them, saying, "Thank you."

Less than ten minutes later, Rongrong was brought out by the police officers.

There was also a man with a receding hairline and a beer belly whose hands were handcuffed.

"Mist Baby!"

When Rongrong saw Shangguan Wu, her eyes instantly reddened, and she ran over to hug her, her body trembling slightly.

"I'm so sorry, Wu Bao, that black peony was smashed and killed. I can't save it, sob sob..."

Shangguan Wu patted her back to comfort her, saying, "It's okay, it's just a potted plant. We can just buy another one. Don't cry."

Rongrong let go of her and said sadly, "But it's not that pot anymore!"

Shangguan Wu: "..."

What should she say now?

At this moment, a middle-aged police officer came over and said, "Miss, would you please come with us to the police station to make a statement?"

Shangguan Wu quickly replied, "Okay, can we drive back with you ourselves?"

"Can."

Immediately, the group drove off in a large procession to the police station.

Sitting in the car, Rongrong was still very sad.

She had been tending to her flower for over a week when, just an hour ago, the flowerpot was smashed by the shop owner, and the black peony was trampled to death by him. She could only watch helplessly, unable to save it.

Shangguan Wu held her hand and said, "Rongrong, I want to apologize to you. Your boss came here because of me. You were brought here because of me. So that black peony died because of me, it has nothing to do with you, do you understand?"

Rongrong suddenly turned her head to look at Shangguan Wu.
