Not far away, at the other end of the dirt road, Liu Liwen was holding Zhang Ruichen's arm and slowly walking towards this side.

Lin Jianxue's eyes swept across Liu Liwen's face, which was full of the word "picking trouble", and a feeling of disgust rose in her heart.

She doesn't want to cause trouble now.

Especially...Fu Zhawei is still next to him.

She subconsciously hoped that she could maintain her usual gentle and calm appearance in front of this man. At least, she wouldn't argue with him in the street like a shrew.

She wanted to pretend not to hear and pull Fu Zhewei around.

But Liu Liwen was like a fly in a toilet, chasing the stench. She took a few steps forward and brought Zhang Ruichen to block their way.

Liu Liwen raised her chin high, glanced at Lin Jianxue, and said in an even more harsh tone: "Lin Jianxue, I'm talking to you, are you mute?"

Lin Jianxue finally stopped.

She slowly raised her head, and her cold gaze finally fell on Liu Liwen's face. Her eyes moved down and lingered on her neck for a moment.

There, the red marks and bruises caused by her pinching a few days ago have become lighter after a few days of recovery, and are almost invisible without careful observation.

Her voice was soft: "Liu Liwen, does your neck hurt anymore?"

"you!"

When Liu Liwen mentioned the humiliation of being pinned to the ground, slapped, and strangled by Lin Jianxue two days ago, she became like a cat whose tail was stepped on, and her fur instantly stood up!

She was so angry that her teeth were itching, and she wanted to pounce on Lin Jianxue and tear her calm and composed face into pieces!

But... she was a little scared.

This woman looked thin and weak, like she was too fragile to be touched, but when she really started fighting, her strength was terrifying, like a bull! Last time, she didn't even have a chance to fight back before she was completely crushed!

A head-on confrontation will definitely not work...

Liu Liwen took a deep breath and glared at Lin Jianxue with resentment.

Then, she turned her eyes and looked at the man next to Lin Jianxue who had been silent but had a strong presence.

Right! If I can't beat her, I'll ruin her reputation! Let this man see her true colors!

Liu Liwen immediately put on an expression that said, "I'm doing this for you," and said to Fu Zhewei exaggeratedly, "Hey, this man!"

"I'm telling you, don't be fooled by her pitiful appearance! This woman is incredibly cruel! And she's especially violent. She loves to hit people if she doesn't agree with them!"

To make her case more convincing, she leaned forward, pointed at the almost invisible mark on her neck, and complained angrily:

"See the bruises on my neck? It's her! Two days ago, at the educated youth site, she pinned me to the ground and choked and beat me over a trivial matter! She almost strangled me to death! Look how innocent she's pretending to be!"

As Liu Liwen spoke, she secretly observed the man's reaction.

The man didn't say anything, but the moment she opened her mouth, his dark eyes seemed to glance in her direction, cold as ice.

This man is really tall and has a slim figure. He looks... huh?

Liu Liwen's voice gradually became quieter. She looked at Fu Zhawei's stern face, and the more she looked, the more she felt...

Huh?

This person...why does he look a little familiar?

"Liu Liwen."

Fu Zhawei spoke expressionlessly.

"What nonsense are you talking about?"
