"A while ago, one night you pretended to be kind and gave a young girl a ride home, but then you abandoned her halfway through the journey. Luckily, she was alright, otherwise you would be dead today." Yan Xin crossed her arms and looked at her coldly.
"What do you want to do? I don't remember doing anything like that. You've mistaken me for someone else." Zhao Lu denied it outright, seemingly thinking that this would make it seem like nothing had happened.
"You think you can just deny it and it won't happen? Naive. The fact that I was able to bring you here means I've thoroughly investigated your background. Now that I've taken action, I'm not going to let you off easily. I'll teach you a lesson... Ah, what are you doing?"
Yan Xin had only uttered half of her harsh words when Zhao Lu pounced on her and grabbed her hair. In the darkness, Zhao Lu's eyes were gloomy, and her movements were swift and ruthless. In the blink of an eye, she had pinned Yan Xin to the ground, one knee on her chest and the other hand around her neck.
"I thought you were some kind of big shot, but you're just a fool. Trying to take me down all by yourself in the middle of the night, what are you so smug about? Let's see how cocky you are now, I'll kill you." At this moment, Zhao Lu was no longer the hysterical and fearful person she had been just moments before. Her gleaming silver teeth were especially dazzling in the darkness, and Yan Xin was powerless to resist.
Zhao Lu must be crazy. She's got the strength to fight Lin Xiazhu. If no one comes to save her, she's going to die.
"Trying to scream for help, huh? Hahaha, you dare mess with me? Now you know how powerful I am?" Zhao Lu's eyes were gloomy, and she increased the pressure in her hand, as if she wouldn't stop until she strangled the person to death.
"Didn't you say you had help? If I go back first, you'll really die at her hands today." Lin Xiazhu appeared out of nowhere and lifted Zhao Lu up with one hand.
Yan Xin had previously told her that she had brought people with her and that she didn't need to worry about anything, just leave everything to her. Is this how she puts her mind at ease? If it weren't for her composure and not going straight home, Yan Xin would be dead.
"Cough cough... I miscalculated... I didn't expect this guy to be so strong." Yan Xin struggled to get up from the ground and coughed violently for a while.
"Who are you? Let me go! If you don't let go, I'll call for help! I won't let you get away with this!" Zhao Lu screamed again, howling like a ghost just like before.
"Shut up, you acted so convincingly just now, I almost fell for it. Turns out you were waiting here. But no matter how crazy or desperate you are, you can only be held down by one hand. If I can't handle you today, I'll take your surname." Lin Xiazhu held Zhao Lu by the collar with one hand, tightening her grip, making Zhao Lu's face turn red and almost suffocating.
"Strangle her, strangle her to death! Damn it, how did she treat me just now? Now we'll pay her back tenfold! There's no reason why the two of us plus Peach should all fall into her hands. Don't let go, let me vent my anger. I'm going to tear her face apart." After catching her breath, Yan Xin wished she could humanely destroy Zhao Lu.
Lin Xiazhu didn't stop her. She also felt that this girl had some problems with her brain. If she wasn't dealt with firmly, she wouldn't know how capable others were, and would think that she was the most capable.
More than ten minutes later, Yan Xin stopped when her palms were red. The person Lin Xiazhu was carrying had turned into a pig's head and was now sobbing.
"Shut up, don't cry out loud. I don't want to hear your voice. If you cry again, believe me, I'll rip your tongue out!" Yan was annoyed by her and glared at her with disgust, spewing out threatening words.
Finally, Lin Xiazhu slapped Yao unconscious, then got into the car with the man, took him back to the city, dumped him at the entrance of the Zhao family's villa, and drove away.
"You're too soft-hearted. She dared to leave Taozi on the roadside in the suburbs, and you still brought her back and escorted her home. It's so unfair." Yan Xin was full of resentment, her face clearly showing that she held a grudge.
Lin Xiazhu didn't respond. Let her read whatever she wanted. Yan Xin had suffered a loss today and was definitely in a bad mood. Lin Xiazhu didn't want to argue with her too much. She did want to beat Zhao Lu up and throw her in the wilderness, but what if something happened?
Then, could she argue that she was just retaliating because of what she did to Taozi? Lin Xiazhu couldn't be as reckless as Zhao Lu, not to mention whether she and Yan Xin would be punished after the incident.
With the power of the Bai and Yan families, she and Yan Xin will definitely be safe in the end, but she will have a guilty conscience. What if Zhao Lu is unlucky and gets gang-raped in the wilderness, or is raped and then killed?
If someone were to die, Lin Xiazhu felt she would wake up in the middle of the night terrified. She really wouldn't dare to joke about someone's life. She could beat someone up, but she couldn't risk taking a life.
In fact, Yan Xin knew this principle. She just hated Zhao Lu so much that beating her up wasn't enough to vent her anger. She wished she could cripple her, but she couldn't actually do that, so she could only leave cursing.
She didn't plan to go home tonight either, and went directly to the Bai family's old house with Lin Xiazhu. As soon as the two entered the living room, they saw Bai Ruan sitting on the sofa in the middle with a dark expression. When he saw them come in, his dark eyes looked over at them.
When Lin Xiazhu met his somewhat indifferent gaze, her heart skipped a beat, and she knew something was wrong. This man rarely lost his temper, but once he did, he was very difficult to appease.
Oh no, oh no, her husband's eyes were practically spitting fire, and she felt a chill run down her spine.
Seeing that the atmosphere was not right, Yan Xin became even more silent and secretly moved her feet, wanting to leave the living room. She had always been a little afraid of Xiao An. Ever since she was still Zhao Xiaolian, she had never dared to look him in the eye, always feeling that he could see through everything.
"Since Yan Xin is here, why didn't you say hello? Don't rush off, come and sit down." Bai Ru'an closed her eyes, suppressing the anger that was about to erupt, and spoke in a deep voice.
Lin Xiazhu and Yan Xin exchanged a glance. The former quickly went over and sat down next to Bai Ru'an, putting her arm around his and saying softly, "Xiao'an, I have some things to take care of today. Didn't I tell you beforehand? And you agreed." So why are you still angry?
Ah, women.
She said she had to go out to run some errands, and he thought she was just going to the mall, a coffee shop, or a jewelry store. But she actually dared to sneak out after dinner and not come home until late at night. Her son was crying and looking for her, and when he called her, her phone was switched off.
Bai Ru'an thought something had happened to her and was almost scared out of her wits. She quickly sent people to look for her, and all the bodyguards in the house were mobilized. Finally, they found her on a deserted road in the suburbs, where she and Yan Xin were fiercely beating someone up.
The bodyguard filmed the incident and sent it to him, which made him so angry that he almost smashed his phone on the spot.
From the time she got married until now, or rather, from the time Xiaozhu went to study in the capital, it's been almost seven years. She hasn't fought with anyone in a long time, nor has she ever argued with anyone.
Of course, none of that matters. If someone bullies you, you should definitely get revenge. If someone insults you, you should definitely fight back. But can't she use a more normal approach? Why does she have to do it in the middle of the night? She has dozens of bodyguards at home. If she wants to beat someone up, why does she have to do it herself?
And this Yan Xin, has her brain rusted? She sent people to tie someone up, but instead of keeping them tied up, she untied the ropes and threw them into the middle of the room. Then all her men left, and she went over to make some threats and almost got killed and strangled.
