Chapter 72 Shocking! The one who seduced my son was actually Nan Xia?!
"No need. If your employees see this, they'll think I'm plotting to seize power," Nan Xia said.
Shen Yan smiled and didn't press the matter further. He returned to his imposing desk, glancing up at her every now and then—thinking she had come in to chat with him for a while.
But as soon as she came in, she focused on her work.
He didn't want to bother them.
She's quite charming when she's working so hard.
Nan Xia had only been sitting there for half an hour when the office door was suddenly pushed open forcefully: "Clang!"
Both of them looked towards the door, and there stood the same little girl from last time—
"Who gave you permission to barge in? Don't you have any manners?" Shen Yan reprimanded her with a dark expression.
Gu Yaoyao glanced at him with a pout, crossed her arms, and walked directly to the woman's side, scoffing.
"So you're an employee here? Ha, you don't even know your own worth, yet you dare to try and seduce my fiancé?"
"I warned you last time, but I didn't expect you to be so shameless! You're such a slut, what's your name anyway?"
Nan Xia put down what she was holding, stood up with a smile, walked to her side, and suddenly slapped her across the face without giving anyone any face:
"Smack—!"
Shen Yan looked at Nan Xia in surprise. He was about to go over and kick that girl out, but he didn't expect her to be so straightforward.
Gu Yaoyao covered her burning face with one hand, her eyes wide, panting heavily, somewhat incredulous.
"You...you dare hit me? Do you know who I am?!"
"No matter who you are, this young lady should be more polite," Nan Xia warned her coldly.
"How dare you, a lowly, insignificant employee, talk to me like that? You're asking for a beating!"
Gu Yaoyao was furious. No one had ever dared to treat her like this before. She raised her hand to hit him back.
Nan Xia easily grabbed her wrist, slapped her across the face, and then pushed her away forcefully.
Gu Yaoyao was so dizzy from the beating that she lost her balance and suddenly fell to the ground in a sorry state.
Shen Yan looked at the domineering Nan Xia and smiled. He was worried that she would be wronged, but it turned out that it was that little girl who was wronged!
Nan Xia walked over, squatted down, and pinched the girl's cheek with her thumb and forefinger.
"Watch your mouth from now on. If you swear again, I'll slap you for every single word you say, until you submit. Got it?"
Gu Yaoyao glared at her with teary, resentful eyes, wanting to yell at her but not daring to; she had never suffered such humiliation before.
She brushed her hand away, looked at the man standing next to her, and started crying pitifully:
"Brother Yan, I've been beaten up like this, aren't you going to say anything about her? She's clearly a ruthless and vicious woman!"
"You brought this on yourself. It's good that you ran into her. If you had met someone worse who cursed you like that, you would have been in even worse shape. Consider this a lesson for you."
Shen Yan put his hands behind his back and looked at her with deep eyes.
Gu Yaoyao was furious that he would say such a thing to her. Just then, a middle-aged man with a deep and dignified aura walked in through the door.
It is Shen Shaohui.
When Gu Yaoyao saw her uncle arrive, she smiled slightly. After receiving the message from the stranger, she immediately told Uncle Shen.
"Uncle, you must stand up for me! Look what your junior employees have done to me!"
As she spoke, she raised her face, which bore the fingerprints on both sides, and pitifully cried to him.
Shen Shaohui ignored the little girl and eagerly looked at the woman who dared to seduce his son—
consternation.
It's actually Nanxia?!
His expression immediately darkened; from the very first moment he saw her, he inexplicably disliked her.
Shen Yan looked at his father, frowning, somewhat worried that he would cause trouble for Nan Xia.
Nan Xia calmly stood up, her gaze meeting the imposing presence of Old Shen without flinching.
"Chairman Shen should know that it takes two to tango. You can ask yourself why I hit her."
"Does Attorney Nan like my son?" Shen Shaohui asked her this question in a deep voice, his hands behind his back.
In order to make the family more prosperous, the only son must marry into a powerful family.
He absolutely forbids his son from having an ordinary girlfriend!
"What makes Chairman Shen think that way?" she asked, raising an eyebrow.
Shen Shaohui wouldn't let it go just because of her words; he intentionally wanted to embarrass her.
"Although some of the words are unpleasant, I still have to say them. With Attorney Nan's background, she is not a good match for the Shen family, and you are not qualified to marry into the family. I hope Attorney Nan will stop wasting her time and stay away from my son."
Shen Yan was secretly annoyed with her father and was about to speak up for her when Nan Xia spoke first with a relaxed smile.
"I've always been a bit unconventional. Mr. Shen and I were just friends. Mr. Shen, please don't provoke me."
Shen Shaohui's old face darkened slightly. She truly lived up to her reputation as a lawyer; her words were sharp enough that most people wouldn't even dare to look him in the eye, let alone be so disrespectful!
Shen Yan immediately looked at Nan Xia with new respect, not expecting her to be so brave—daring to confront her father head-on!
"..." Gu Yaoyao, who was still lying on the ground, was also shocked. Was that woman so bold?
"Mr. Shen, let's have someone put the documents back in the conference room later," Nan Xia said to him before leaving.
"This woman is too cunning and manipulative. You mustn't get too close to her, and be wary of her," Shen Shaohui coldly instructed his son.
If she weren't still dealing with Ruifeng's acquisition case, she would have already been taught a lesson.
“Even if she’s cunning and manipulative, she wouldn’t target someone for no reason. Besides, she and I are friends, so it’s impossible for us not to get closer,” Shen Yan said in a deep voice.
"You..." Shen Shaohui was already angry with that woman, and now he was angry with his own son. He clenched his fists tightly, almost unable to resist hitting him—
How can I stop them from being together?
His gaze suddenly fell on the Gu family girl who had just stood up, and he used her deep voice to say, "Chen Yan is your fiancé, so keep a close eye on him."
“Yes, Uncle…” Gu Yaoyao was excited to see that her uncle had admitted it.
Nan Xia walked into the conference room, and Song Yanzhi looked up at her, a slight smile playing on his lips:
"Wasn't Attorney Nan in Shen Yan's office? Why did she come back so quickly?"
"None of your business?"
She sat down in her seat and hummed. How come that little girl seemed to know she was in Chen Yan's office?
I wasn't surprised at all when I saw myself.
"..." Song Yanzhi looked at her, his cunning smile deepening.
Clang—
The conference room door opened, and the two secretaries handed all the documents back to him. Song Yanzhi leaned back in his chair, a smile playing on his lips, and deliberately asked:
"Didn't you just move there? Why are you moving back so soon?"
"Well... we're not entirely sure either. Mr. Shen asked us to move back." A secretary glanced at Nan Xia. Was it Nan Xia who had tried to pursue Mr. Shen but was rejected?
Or was he sent back by Chairman Shen, who just arrived? That's a bit embarrassing.
Nan Xia glared at the man opposite her, feeling both annoyed and embarrassed. Was this man deliberately trying to embarrass her?
I'm so angry!
