As a cold voice sounded, a hand grasped Jiang Wanyan's wrist.
The moment she raised her eyes, Xi Chenzhu easily freed her hand from He Ming's grasp.
He Ming frowned and looked at his hand. There was a black mark on the back of his hand.
Jiang Wanyan looked at Xi Chenzhu's other hand, which was loosely holding a half-burned cigarette.
There were sounds of gasps coming one after another. Obviously, they were all shocked by Xi Chenzhu's action of burning someone with a cigarette butt, especially since the person he burned was He Ming, who was not only his mortal enemy, but also his wife's ex-husband.
He Ming put his hand down and asked angrily, "What does Mr. Xi mean by this?"
Xi Chenzhu said coldly: "Boss He, you touched my people."
Until this time, He Ming still felt that Jiang Wanyan was his. When he heard what Xi Chenzhu said, he frowned and said nothing.
Xi Chenzhu didn't intend to let him go. He narrowed his eyes and said word by word, "Wanyan is the one who will stay with me for the rest of my life. If you come to bother her again, don't blame me for being rude."
His voice was loud, and everyone nearby heard it. It wouldn't be long before the news that Xi Chenzhu threatened He Ming for Jiang Wanyan would spread like wildfire in the upper class.
Xi Chenzhu held Jiang Wanyan's hand, pulled her out of the hotel, got into the car, fastened her seat belt, and drove away.
Jiang Wanyan secretly glanced at Xi Chenzhu. His jawline was tense and he was looking ahead, as if he was the only one in the car.
Jiang Wanyan held the seat belt and said softly, "I didn't mean to embarrass you."
The temperature in the car inexplicably dropped another two degrees.
Jiang Wanyan lowered her head, not noticing Xi Chenzhu's frown, and continued, "It's not that I didn't want to hide, it's that he threatened me with my mother's medical records. I didn't hide because I wanted to get them."
She thought Xi Chenzhu was angry because he felt embarrassed for her, so she was cautious when explaining.
After he finished explaining, the person next to him still didn't move. Jiang Wanyan looked at him anxiously, and then he asked, "Why didn't you tell me?"
"I don't want to bother you."
Xi Chenzhu fell silent again. After a while, he stopped the car and said sideways, "We have a contract. I will help you, but you should discuss anything with me."
Jiang Wanyan asked confusedly, "Is this also included in the contract?"
Xi Chenzhu: "Is it in the contract that I'll help you deal with He Ming?"
Jiang Wanyan nodded, and Xi Chenzhu sighed and said, "But you seem to think I'm unreliable."
"I don't think so," Jiang Wanyan explained hurriedly, "I really don't want to trouble you."
Xi Chenzhu looked at him steadily, and Jiang Wanyan softly admitted her mistake, "I was wrong. I will discuss this kind of thing with you in the future."
"Words are not enough."
Jiang Wanyan became anxious and asked him, "What do you want me to do to believe you?"
Xi Chenzhu: "Sign the contract."
Jiang Wanyan nodded and said, "Okay, go back and sign."
"No need," Xu Changfeng took the laptop from the back seat, opened a document on the desktop, quickly typed a line of words, and then showed it to Jiang Wanyan, "You can sign it now."
Jiang Wanyan: “…”
Jiang Wanyan couldn't believe it: "Are you ready at any time?"
Xi Chenzhu hummed and said, "Work habits."
Jiang Wanyan had no objection to this. She kept an electronic copy and then printed two copies, one for each person.
After signing, Jiang Wanyan felt that the newly added content was a bit strange. She needed to discuss with He Ming about how to deal with him. That was fine, but there was another sentence after that.
——You are not allowed to meet He Ming outside alone.
It seems a little weird.
They were silent along the way. When they returned to Xi's house, Xi Fei looked at Jiang Wanyan with an apologetic look in her eyes, seeming to want to say something but stopping herself.
Jiang Wanyan said softly, "If you have anything to say, just tell me directly."
Xi Fei sighed and said guiltily, "Wan Yan, I didn't mean for you to be scolded."
Jiang Wanyan was completely bewildered. Xi Fei reached out to grab her shawl, lowering her head and saying, "It's all my fault that you lost face..."
No matter how slow Jiang Wanyan was, she knew what Xi Fei was talking about. She quickly grabbed Xi Fei's hand and said seriously, "It's not embarrassing. I really like this shawl."
Xi Fei looked at her suspiciously and said hesitantly, "But everyone on the Internet is scolding you..."
As soon as she opened her phone, she saw a push notification. The article criticized Jiang Wanyan for having no taste and being unworthy of attending such an occasion.
After hearing the whole story, Jiang Wanyan roughly understood what was going on.
I think He Ming didn't want people to make a fuss about what happened to him at the banquet, so he asked people to make a fuss about Jiang Wanyan to attract other people's attention.
People in the circle are not fools, so they naturally know what this hot search is about. Hot searches can only deceive people like Xi Fei who are not at the scene.
Seeing that Jiang Wanyan really didn't mind, Xi Fei breathed a sigh of relief, but still felt embarrassed and wanted to get the shawl back.
Xi Nuannuan watched them having so much fun and said sarcastically, "What a flatterer!"
Immediately afterwards, Xi Nuannuan was stared at with dissatisfaction by her brother and mother. She snorted and turned back to her room.
The day passed without any major incidents.
The next day, Jiang Wanyan saw Xi Chenzhu sitting in the living room and asked curiously, "Don't you have to go to the company today?"
Xi Chenzhu raised his eyes to look at her, "Aren't you going to the hospital?"
"I'm going to the hospital."
Jiang Wanyan blinked, but it seemed to have nothing to do with him.
"I'll go with you."
Xi Chenzhu was willing to go, and Jiang Wanyan didn't say much. Liang Manzhu's medical records were still in He Ming's hands. Maybe Xi Chenzhu could help if he went there.
The two went to the hospital together. When they reached the corner, a nurse walked past them cursing and seemed to be saying something troublesome, saying that it would be better for him to die.
