Wu Honghui felt a sharp pain on his forehead, and when he touched it, it was covered in blood.
He got angry and slapped him across the face.
"Damn! What a slut! Brothers, get her!"
Jiang Wanning and Su Zhihan worked together seamlessly. Although they were at a disadvantage in strength, they were agile and quick-witted. Because of their many fights, they had developed excellent teamwork and for a time, they actually gained the upper hand. In the chaos, she and Su Zhihan showed no mercy and kicked the men in the groin without any shame. At this point, it was either you or me.
Gu Lingyang reacted quickly, smashed the bottle, and charged forward, drinking without saying a word.
His brothers were also stunned, but they quickly joined the fray.
Those guys with big tattoos on their arms were stunned.
More importantly, a dozen well-trained security guards rushed over and subdued them.
Those security guards looked like retired military personnel with martial arts skills.
"What are you doing! You've arrested the wrong person! They started the fight!"
Seeing that things were not going well, Wu Honghui dared not call Jiang Wanning his wife anymore.
They tried to escape, but they were all captured.
Wu Honghui is a scoundrel, but these dozen or so security guards aren't pushovers either.
Seeing this, Zhao Xuenan was so angry she almost ground her teeth to powder.
Tao Wenrui's expression also looked rather unpleasant.
The person he was thinking about was actually being thought about by others?
The farce was quickly brought to a close, and the fallen and broken items were cleaned up.
The leader asked Jiang Wanning, "Miss, what are you planning to do?"
"Call the police and take him to the police station."
"good."
Once the police are called, there will be a criminal record. Wu Honghui himself is not clean either. Seeing that things were not going well, he tried to escape, but Gu Lingyang kicked him and he fell to his knees in front of Jiang Wanning.
Jiang Wanning merely glanced at him indifferently, without saying a word.
The police arrived quickly and took the group away.
Jiang Wanning and Su Zhihan thought they would also have to go to the police station to give statements, but they didn't expect that someone had arranged it for them.
"The police will contact you once they ask you anything."
"Okay, thank you."
"Miss Jiang, would it be convenient for us to talk in private?"
At this moment, Su Zhihan stared intently in Gu Lingyang's direction. If she weren't afraid of causing a commotion, she would have already screamed like a groundhog.
It wasn't Gu Lingyang who spoke, but another man, about the same age as Fu Chenyuan, who was somewhat flamboyant in appearance and dress. He wore a pink suit, which he wore with a glamorous yet tasteful air. Although he was flamboyant, he was still handsome. This man was Lu Heng.
Su Zhihan tugged at Jiang Wanning's wrist, her eyes conveying two words: Please!
Jiang Wanning nodded: "Okay."
As Zhao Xuenan watched Jiang Wanning and Su Zhihan leave with two men who looked extremely wealthy, she suddenly stood up and wanted to follow them.
She made an excuse to go to the restroom, not even caring about Tao Wenrui.
However, when she arrived at the first floor, Jiang Wanning was nowhere to be found.
"What are you looking for?" Tao Wenrui's voice suddenly sounded from behind. "Looking for Wan Ning?"
Zhao Xuenan turned around abruptly and stammered, "Brother Wenrui, I just saw Wan Ning being bullied. I want to go find her and see if there's anything I can do to help."
"Is that so?" Tao Wenrui's tone was somewhat nonchalant.
Everyone's smart enough to know that the flashy man in the pink suit was clearly on Jiang Wanning's side. Jiang Wanning doesn't need anyone's help.
"Xue Nan, do you hate Wan Ning?"
Zhao Xuenan was startled, but pretended to be naive: "Brother Wenrui, why did you say that?"
"Because if it weren't for her, you wouldn't have been separated from your family, and you wouldn't have suffered so much injustice in the Jiang family."
After returning to the Zhao family, Zhao Xuenan embellished the story, portraying herself as a pitiful girl who had suffered all kinds of grievances in the Jiang family and was unloved by her parents.
Anyway, the Jiang family has already gone bankrupt, so they won't have any chance to enter the circle of the wealthy in the future, and they're not afraid of being exposed.
"It's not Wan Ning's fault. Actually, I knew her back in college. I really wanted to be friends with her back then, but unfortunately she was aloof and proud, and I was Jiang Xuenan at the time, and my family wasn't well-off either, so we never became friends. If we had become friends back then, maybe we could have become family sooner."
Zhao Xuenan continued, "I begged my parents, saying I wouldn't mind having another older sister. But they said Wan Ning has never been close to them. They've been so good to her, but there's always been a distance between her and my parents. That day, my parents and I begged her to stay, but she still went back. Is twenty-one years of nurturing less important than blood ties?"
Zhao Xuenan spoke with deep emotion, her eyes filled with tears.
"Wenrui, do you really like Wanning? I'll go back and beg my parents to let me back out, so the engagement can still go to Wanning, okay?"
Zhao Xuenan looked pitiful.
The two people stood in the aisle; there was hardly anyone around.
The tall man's expression was unreadable, while Zhao Xuenan looked sorrowful, which gave her a unique charm.
Zhao Xuenan seemed unable to withstand Tao Wenrui's overly intense gaze. She blushed and lowered her eyes, but her eyes flashed with disdain and certainty.
Now the Zhao and Tao families have just started another project together, and their cooperation is deepening, making a marriage alliance inevitable.
Tao Wenrui wasn't stupid; he naturally knew how to choose.
But Tao Wenrui wanted to marry her while also having his eye on Jiang Wanning, so that was absolutely unacceptable!
Even if Tao Wenrui has other women outside in the future, it can't be Jiang Wanning!
Tao Wenrui sighed softly and pulled Zhao Xuenan into his arms: "Silly girl. I have no romantic feelings for Wan Ning. I've always treated her like a younger sister. We're going to get married in the future, and you're my fiancée, so don't overthink it."
Zhao Xuenan gave a soft "hmm," her voice slightly nasal, and she was also a little nervous. Wu Honghui was in jail, so he probably wouldn't implicate her, since she had Wu Honghui's most fatal weakness.
Tao Wenrui took Zhao Xuenan to meet his friends. When the men saw Zhao Xuenan, they made no attempt to hide their sizing her up, and their gazes seemed to hold a hint of disappointment and a deeper meaning.
Although Zhao Xuenan had a smile on her face, she harbored even more resentment towards Jiang Wanning.
If Jiang Wanning hadn't taken over her life, these people wouldn't be comparing her to Jiang Wanning in everything!
*
Jiang Wanning and Su Zhihan were in a private room.
Gu Lingyang removed his disguise and openly revealed his true appearance.
Sure enough, Su Zhihan covered her mouth, afraid that she would make a dolphin-like sound when she got excited.
Lu Heng introduced himself to Jiang Wanning: "Sister-in-law, I am Lu Heng, Shen Yuan's childhood friend. This is Gu Lingyang, Shen Yuan's staunch friend who shamelessly pesters him."
After Gu Lingyang sent Jiang Wanning's photo to Fu Chenyuan, Fu Chenyuan asked if Jiang Wanning was at the Night Charm Club, which was Lu Heng's place, so naturally Lu Heng was protecting her.
Upon hearing that Jiang Wanning was at his establishment, Lu Heng immediately dropped everything and rushed over. He remotely directed the operation, and seeing that someone dared to cause trouble for Jiang Wanning, he naturally mobilized the most capable security guards in the establishment.
