The wisteria quickly rose and continued its relentless charge towards Shen Nanxing.
Jiang Nian'an pulled Shen Nanxing behind her and lashed out with her whip again.
"What's with this wisteria you're acting like? I was the one who hit you, so why are you always staring at Brother Chen?"
'Chirp—'
The wisteria, once again flung away, huddled in a corner, emitting a sound like the cry of a fledgling bird.
Isn't it trying to remove obstacles so it can get closer to her?
"Still yelling? Are you defying me?"
Jiang Nian'an, who couldn't understand the language of the vines, raised her hand again.
When the wisteria saw that Jiang Nian'an was about to whip it again, it didn't think twice and burrowed underground to hide.
For the sake of my life, I'd better hide for now and come back later.
"Hmph, they run pretty fast."
Jiang Nian'an retracted the vine whip and turned to look at Shen Nanxing. "Brother Shen, be careful these next few days. I think it will definitely come back again."
Vines can burrow underground, making their attacks often difficult to defend against.
"Okay, I'll be careful."
Shen Nanxing solemnly agreed, but a look of worry immediately appeared on his face.
"However, it is not afraid of my lightning, and even this sword is useless against it. I'm afraid—"
Shen Nanxing lowered his head and sighed heavily.
He seemed to think that he would eventually fall victim to the machinations of that wisteria.
Jiang Nian'an felt a tightness in her chest upon seeing this.
"Don't be afraid, don't be afraid, Brother Chen!"
She patted her chest and assured Shen Nanxing, "I will protect you."
Upon hearing Jiang Nian'an's assurance, a smug glint flashed in Shen Nanxing's half-closed eyes, but he didn't show it on his face, still looking worried.
"But the wisteria was moving so fast..."
Jiang Nian'an blurted out, "I'll stay by your side every step of the way!"
Upon hearing this, a look of joy flashed in Shen Nanxing's eyes, and the worry on his face vanished.
He subtly moved closer to Jiang Nian'an, his face beaming, "Then I'll have to trouble An'an to protect me."
"Don't worry!" Jiang Nian'an said confidently.
"Quickly, bring me a mirror!"
Just then, Qiao Xingyang woke up groggily and asked for a mirror.
His subordinate quickly took out a small mirror and handed it to him.
Qiao Xingyang snatched it away.
Then, under the complicated gazes of Jiang Nian'an and Shen Nanxing, she held up the mirror and carefully examined her face.
"ah!!!"
Qiao Xingyang suddenly let out a pig-like scream, "My handsome face... Shen Nanxing, I'm not finished with you!!"
Tsk, and a handsome face too.
Jiang Nian'an rolled her eyes and glanced back at Shen Nanxing.
Compared to Brother Shen, he's at best just good-looking.
Not over yet?
Wow, he's incredibly skilled!
Her eyes lit up, and she suddenly shouted, "Wow! The wisteria is back!"
"Where is it? Where is it!"
Upon hearing that Zi Teng had returned, Qiao Xingyang jumped up in fright and instinctively ran towards Shen Nanxing, crying out, "Shen Nanxing, save me!"
"Heh~"
Jiang Nian'an crossed her arms and let out a cold laugh.
"If you're so capable, why don't you stop now? If you're so capable, why don't you stop asking for help!"
Qiao Xingyang: "......"
He looked around, but there was no trace of the wisteria. "You lied to me!"
Enraged, Qiao Xingyang clenched his fists, ready to strike.
Shen Nanxing's face suddenly darkened, and he kicked Qiao Xingyang in the stomach. "Qiao Xingyang, have I been too lenient with you?!"
Qiao Xingyang let out a muffled groan and was sent flying backward.
"Young Master!"
The four henchmen leaped with all their might and caught Qiao Xingyang before he hit the ground.
"Cough cough cough, pfft!"
After coughing heavily a few times, Qiao Xingyang suddenly spat out a mouthful of blood.
"Qiao Xingyang, for Grandpa Qiao's sake, I'm warning you one last time: if you dare to lay a finger on An'an again, I'll take your life!"
Qiao Xingyang was shocked by these words and looked up at Shen Nanxing.
When he met Shen Nanxing's unusually serious and murderous eyes, he paused for a moment, then snorted coldly and turned his head to the other side.
Shen Nanxing is a man of his word; he won't confront him head-on for the sake of his life.
Jiang Nian'an was taken aback by Qiao Xingyang's reaction.
For a moment, she couldn't tell whether the relationship between the two was good or bad.
To say they don't have a good relationship is one thing, but her brother Shen always leaves room for maneuver when he makes a move.
Even though Qiao Xingyang was beaten so badly, he didn't call his bodyguards to fight back. The harshest thing he said was, "I'm not done with you yet."
But they seem to have a good relationship...
Hmm, Qiao Xingyang has been beaten up like this.
Even if she went against her conscience, she couldn't say that the two had a good relationship.
Shen Nanxing noticed her confusion and his expression softened. "An'an, let's go back to the cave first, and I'll explain to you."
"good."
Jiang Nian'an nodded; she was indeed curious.
After entering the cave, Shen Nanxing did not speak, but instead used his supernatural energy as a pen to write on the ground.
When I was little, I was playing around and accidentally fell into the water. It was Grandpa Qiao who saved me, so I only beat him up, not killed him.
He dared not resist because he understood my temperament and knew that I always meant what I said.
After writing these two sentences, Shen Nanxing waved his hand to erase them and continued writing.
Shen Nanchuan must die, but I can't let my parents know that I killed him.
Therefore, I need a witness who can prove that Shen Nanchuan died in an accident.
In his parents' eyes, Qiao Xingyang had always been an unconventional and eccentric person who never lied.
It would be most appropriate for him to witness Shen Nanchuan's death in an 'accident' and then tell his parents about it in person.
