"Are you awake?"
She glared at me with gritted teeth, the hatred in her eyes so strong that it almost overflowed.
I raised my hand and slapped him again.
Zhou Zhizi was stunned.
"If you're not awake, I can continue beating you, but I'm telling you, if you're going crazy, I don't mind sending you to the police station and letting everyone see what kind of upbringing and manners the Zhou family's adopted daughter has! How can she go crazy and kill people on the street!"
Zhou Zhizi was shocked.
I curled my lips, my smile a little cold, "Do you still want to fight me now?"
Zhou Zhizi pursed her lips and clenched her teeth.
His eyes were red and he stared at me.
"I really overestimated you before. I always thought you were a very powerful person, vicious and cunning. Now it seems that you are just a woman who was blinded by love."
It just revealed a fact that she didn't want to believe.
She started to go crazy.
I smiled and said, "Zhou Zhizi, you are really going backwards as you grow older."
Zhou Zhizi bit her lips, and there was even a trace of blood at the corner of her mouth.
Her voice was hoarse and unpleasant.
"Mu Yan, don't be so proud. I will never let you succeed! My brother is mine, and I will never give him to you, a bitch!"
"Then let's wait and see who will end up in his hands."
Zhou Zhizi smiled coldly and turned away.
The crowd looked at me worriedly.
"Are you okay?"
I was stunned for a moment, thinking that I wasn't the one who was slapped, what could happen to me, so I shook my head.
After the crowd dispersed, I was exhausted.
I stopped a car and prepared to go home.
Unexpectedly, the driver widened his eyes when he saw me.
"Girl, let me take you to the hospital."
I shook my head in confusion, "No, I'm not feeling unwell."
My neck just hurts a bit.
The driver simply bent the rearview mirror and said to me, "Look at your neck. Did someone bully you? How about I call the police for you?"
Only then did I notice the purple handprint on my neck.
My skin is relatively fair, and the slightest injury will leave marks. It’s no wonder that the public and the driver would misunderstand me with such obvious pinch marks.
"It's really nothing. I just had a little argument with a friend..."
The driver then started the car.
"Your friend is unacceptable. She was too cruel. I think she wanted to strangle you to death."
I couldn't help but smile bitterly.
The force was so strong that I felt like I was being strangled to death.
If the onlookers hadn't intervened in time, I wouldn't be alive now, sitting in a taxi.
However, I have a new understanding of Zhou Zhizi's madness.
This woman and Zhou Chenyan are indeed brother and sister.
As crazy as ever.
In my current condition, I can’t go to the company, nor can I visit my brother. I don’t even know where I can go.
I have a huge sum of money to pay back tomorrow.
It's simply the end of the road.
Sitting in the taxi, I was a little confused. The driver was considerate and didn't ask me where I was going. He just drove slowly forward.
"Let's go to the nearest hotel."
As soon as I opened my mouth I realized my voice was hoarse.
"good."
The driver parked the car in front of the nearest hotel and didn't charge me much because the distance from where I got on the car to the hotel was not that far.
I booked a room in the hotel, and when I got back to the room, I threw myself on the bed, closed my eyes and fell asleep.
When I am upset, only sleep can calm me down.
When I opened my eyes again, it was pitch black.
I even had a feeling that I didn't know what time it was. I took out my phone from my pocket and saw that it was already 10:00 p.m.
There were also several missed calls.
I replied to my brother first.
"Sister, are you okay? Why didn't you answer my call?"
My brother's voice sounded very anxious.
I quickly comforted him, "I'm fine, I was just a little tired just now, so I fell asleep and just woke up now."
My brother breathed a sigh of relief.
"I'm glad you're okay. You just scared me to death. Go eat something now and then continue to rest. I won't disturb you anymore."
"good."
After hanging up the phone, I called Han Qi back.
He and his brother used the same tone, both asking me why I didn't answer the phone and whether something had happened.
"If you don't call me back, I'm going to the police."
I remembered that last time I was on a business trip, Zhou Chenyan took me away and he ran to call the police.
I couldn't help but pull the corners of my mouth.
"I'm fine, I was just a little tired, so I fell asleep. My phone was on silent and I didn't hear the call."
"Yan Yan, what happened to you?"
I was stunned and lowered my head. "No, why do you ask?"
"Ever since you started working at my company, you've been unwavering and never late for a single day. Even if I gave you a day off and asked you to go home and rest with pay, you wouldn't want to. But you were nowhere to be seen the entire afternoon today. When I called you earlier, you seemed very surprised. You must have encountered something."
"Really not. Maybe it's because I've been too busy with work recently. My body can't handle it. I just want to have a good rest now."
Han Qi was skeptical, "Really?"
"Really? I might have to take a day off tomorrow to sleep at home and go back to work the day after tomorrow. I'll call you if anything happens."
