Jiang Tian's hair was disheveled, but her resistance did not stop.

She bit down hard on the man's wrist, and blood immediately gushed out.

However, what she received in return was the man's delighted laughter: "The fiercer, the better."

He seemed oblivious to the pain, using one hand to restrain Jiang Tian while the other hand inserted the key into the lock.

"Let me go! Let's talk this out. We need to get engaged before we can get our marriage certificate. Let's... let's talk this over..."

In the critical moment, Jiang Tian tried her best to remain calm and distract the man.

"Stop making excuses. Don't worry, after we get the marriage certificate, everything else will be taken care of. The bride price is 500,000 yuan, and the house will be in your name. You'll be a wealthy lady from now on and won't have to live in this old tenement building anymore."

The man continued talking and his hands moving. He unlocked the door, pushed it open, and was about to carry Jiang Tian inside.

Li Xiu stood at a distance, watching Jiang Tian's entire resistance.

Seeing that Jiang Tian still couldn't figure out a way to escape, he remained expressionless and was about to reach out to his men for help.

He naturally wouldn't concern himself with unimportant people, but Jiang Tian was the catalyst for Qiao Yulan's return to the country. If she were to take her own life because she couldn't bear the humiliation... Li Xiu wouldn't let anyone ruin his plans.

The change happened in an instant.

Just when Li Xiu thought Jiang Tian was out of options, he saw her pretend to struggle while taking a spray bottle out of her bag.

With victory seemingly in sight, the man relaxed his guard slightly, and Jiang Tian took the opportunity to raise her hand and press the spray switch.

The man then took a few steps back and covered his eyes.

Before he could speak, Jiang Tian squatted down again, grabbed a brick from the side, and smashed it on the man's head.

Not long after, the man slowly collapsed and lost consciousness.

After resolving everything, Jiang Tian was in tears, as if she had been terrified.

She took several deep breaths to calm herself down, and when she turned around, she saw Li Xiu.

Li Xiu's eyes were very dark, and Jiang Tian shivered when he stared at her.

She stood motionless, her face pale, clearly not expecting that her act of violence would be witnessed by others.

Li Xiu was still staring at her.

He suddenly realized that he had misjudged this woman. He had thought that cowardice was the underlying nature of her character and that she was incapable of doing anything ruthless.

She surprised him.

Jiang Tian remained silent for a long time. Her clothes were wrinkled by the man, but she didn't care.

"I know the law. I acted in self-defense. I won't be punished even if you call the police."

If she didn't tremble so much when she spoke, it would increase the credibility of her statement.

Li Xiu dislikes meddling in other people's business.

As he passed by this place, he thought that if Qiao Yulan escaped his surveillance area, flew to another place, and then took another means of transportation to find Jiang Tian, ​​the people he sent might not be able to catch her.

That's why he came here to see how to place people at Jiang Tian's residence.

Unexpectedly, by sheer chance, he witnessed Jiang Tian's argument with another man.

He ignored Jiang Tian's words, glanced down at the man who had been hit and was unconscious, and waved his hand.

His men immediately sprang into action, lifting the man up and preparing to leave.

"Are you going to kill him?" Jiang Tian's voice carried a hint of urgency.

The well-trained subordinates give the impression that they could kill someone at any time to silence them.

Li Xiu shook his head and pointed at Jiang Tian: "You, come with me."
