When Nanzhi flipped to the 2009 design, there were traces of tearing, and a page was missing in the middle, but the rest was still the same as before, with every page carefully designed.
Nan Zhi didn't notice why a page was missing. After she finished reading it, she realized that the timeline had stopped two years ago, and there had been no more designs after that.
It does connect to Sole's timeline.
So the original owner became a designer two years ago.
After Nanzhi finished tidying up, she replied to Sister Wu, saying that she had something to do at home and hoped to wait a little longer, but would definitely hand it in before the end of the month.
Sister Wu was easy to talk to and agreed immediately.
Summer vacation should start at the end of June. Nanzhi is busy preparing for exams while also working on design drafts, so she basically won't be going home during the week.
That day, Nan Zhi, Lin Youyou, and Qin Xier made an appointment to go to the study room together.
They called Qin Xier but no one answered, so they went directly to Qin Xier's dormitory.
But no one was in the dorm. Her roommate said she had just gone out, probably to buy milk tea.
Nan Zhi was worried, so she and Lin Youyou left the campus and went to the milk tea shop across the street, but Qin Xi'er was not there.
"Could Xi'er have gone to the study room first?" Lin Youyou asked doubtfully.
Nan Zhi thought for a moment and shook her head. If Qin Xi'er went to the study room first, she would definitely tell them.
They had made several calls, but no one answered. So the two of them walked along the road outside the school gate until they heard the sounds of fighting coming from the alley.
Sensing something was wrong, the two quickly ran over and immediately saw Qin Xier lying on the ground surrounded by several men. Nan Zhi's pupils shrank and her face darkened. She quickly went over and helped Qin Xier up.
Qin Xi'er's clothes were dirty and disheveled, and her face was pale. Nan Zhi asked:
"what happened?"
Qin Xi'er bit her lip and shook her head. "I don't know. When I was about to come back after buying the milk tea, they pushed me here. First, they asked me for money, and when I didn't give it to them, they tried to scold me."
Anger gradually surfaced in Nan Zhi's eyes.
Lin Youyou helped Qin Xier up first, while he stood in front of them, keeping an eye on the group of people.
The leading man showed no remorse whatsoever; instead, he gave Nanzhi a disdainful look, not taking her seriously at all.
"What? You want to stand up for her?"
Nan Zhi's eyes turned slightly cold. "Please apologize to my friend."
The other side consisted of five people. They exchanged glances and then burst into laughter. "Did you hear that, brothers? She's demanding an apology from us."
"Little sister, are you still half asleep?"
Nan Zhi: "No matter who you are, you hurt my friend, and this matter cannot be left like this."
Having just witnessed their barbarity, Qin Xi'er tried to dissuade them:
"Zhizhi, forget it, I'm fine, don't bother with them."
These guys all have unconventional looks; they look like gangsters.
One of them spoke with a smile:
"Little sister, as long as you pay us, don't worry, we will make sure you leave safely."
Nan Zhi, her face grim, asked one last time, "Will you apologize?"
The other party, of course, did not apologize. Nan Zhi smiled. She hadn't laid a hand on anyone since she arrived here, and she was itching to get her hands dirty. These people might be a good place for her to practice.
Previously, their neighbor's grandfather used to run a martial arts school and was a nationally renowned master.
Back then, in order to let Nanzhi go to school, Grandma specially prepared a lot of money for Nanzhi to learn martial arts, fearing that if she let go, Nanzhi would be bullied.
However, the neighbor grandfather did not accept the money in the end. Instead, he valued Nanzhi's learning talent and devoted himself to passing on all his knowledge to her. After the grandmother died, he took care of her for two years before passing away himself.
Nan Zhi rolled up her shirt sleeves and struck a pose, "Since you won't apologize, let's settle this with our fists."
The thugs were stunned for a moment, then burst into laughter. "Little sister, do you think this is child's play?"
Nanzhi didn't want to waste any more time with them, so she simply raised her leg and kicked the man who had been speaking, sending him falling backward.
The thugs clearly knew that Nan Zhi was not joking, and they all became serious. About two minutes later, several men were lying in the alley, groaning and clutching their sore spots in pain.
Lin Youyou and Qin Xier stared in disbelief. Nan Zhi clapped her hands, stepped on the leader's stomach, bent over, and smiled broadly, her tone relaxed:
"Can you tell me who told you to ask her for money?"
The leader trembled, not daring to hide anything. This woman was too terrifying; her smile sent chills down his spine. "I...I'll tell you, I don't know who he is. He just gave us a photo and said this girl has a lot of money and that we should teach her a lesson."
Nanzhi glared at him, and the man quickly said, "I'm telling the truth, I'm not lying to you, I can help you."
This sentence caught Nanzhi's attention, and she heard the other party continue:
"He said that if we could scare her, he would buy us drinks."
Nan Zhi smiled, "That's good, but you mustn't try anything funny."
The leader was trembling with fear. He dared not play any tricks now; he valued his life very much.
"Boss, from now on you're our boss, we won't dare to play any tricks on you."
The others chimed in, calling Nanzhi the boss.
Nanzhi: "..."
What started as a fight turned into a family reunion.
Nanzhi and Ahu exchanged contact information, and she had temporarily forgiven them. However, she still asked, "You just hit my friend, how do you explain that?"
Ah Hu and the others immediately knelt down in front of Qin Xi'er, "Miss, we were wrong, we are sorry, we will punish ourselves."
Then came the sound of a slap, quite brutal.
Qin Xi'er froze for a moment, then quickly stopped her:
"It's alright, just don't bully others in the future."
Even after Qin Xi'er spoke, Ah Hu and the others still didn't dare to stop. After self-harming for about two more minutes, Nan Zhi finally spoke:
"Didn't you hear what Miss Qin said?"
Ah Hu stopped. "Thank you, Miss Qin."
Qin Xi'er and Lin Youyou's worldviews have been completely shattered; no one expected Nan Zhi to be so skilled.
Finally, Nan Zhi and Lin Youyou took Qin Xier to the school hospital for a check-up. Ah Hu and the others didn't hit her too hard, but she looked a bit miserable.
After this incident, Nan Zhi's image in Lin Youyou and Qin Xier's hearts was elevated once again.
The next day, Ah Hu sent a message saying that the other party had treated him to drinks at a bar.
Nanzhi took a taxi directly to the bar that Ahu had mentioned. Ahu and his friends were in a private room, and the group used all their might to get them drunk.
Upon seeing Nan Zhi arrive, they all stood up and called out "Boss." This group of thugs now truly admired Nan Zhi; she was a girl with excellent skills and a sharp mind, and she could scare people to death when she got angry.
Nanzhi nodded, glanced at the man lying on the sofa, frowned. She didn't recognize him; he had such an ordinary face.
"Wake him up."
Ah Hu picked up a glass of water with ice and splashed it directly in the man's face.
