My first reaction was to be stunned for a moment, and then I felt ridiculous.
Vicious?
When they kidnapped me and beat me from head to toe, they didn't even reflect on themselves.
Now, I just let Jin Jie replicate my injuries on Shen Xingyu, which is double standards.
A rich lady's body is precious, so ordinary people are treated as cheap?
What a double standard.
"Are you saying something? Are you feeling guilty? Hey, since you're the one doing it on the first day, don't blame me for doing it on the fifteenth!" Chen Li was still shouting angrily on the other end of the phone.
The phone was connected via the car's Bluetooth, so Zhou Fang could hear it clearly.
I raised my lips, but before I could say anything, Zhou Fang spoke first: "Auntie, you're wronging Miss Ruan by saying that. I was at her company all afternoon trying to get a ride, and I didn't see her interacting with anyone else."
With a decisive attitude and just a few words, he completely distanced me from the matter.
"Afang?"
Shen Ni hesitated for a moment, then suppressed his temper, "If she wants to do this, she doesn't have to meet someone else to do it. Don't be deceived by her simple and kind pretense!"
"Are you sure it's her?"
"In the entire Jiangcheng, she is the only one who has a motive!" Shen Li insisted.
Zhou Fang chuckled, "How do you say that?"
Chen Yu was already furious, and she started to curse, "Xing Yu had just kidnapped her a while ago, bullied her terribly, and then pressured Fu Qichuan to divorce her. How could she not hold a grudge?!"
"oh."
Zhou Fang nodded slightly to himself and said with a smile: "Then in my opinion, even if it was really her who did what happened today, Shen Xingyu is not wronged."
“A Fang!!”
Chen Li then realized that he had said something he shouldn't have said, and angrily said, "How can you help the right and not your relatives? When you came to Jiangcheng, your father told you to take good care of Xingyu."
"It's just a polite remark, and you take it seriously?"
Zhou Fang is neither salty nor bland.
Chen Yu knew he couldn't win the argument, so he became angrier and angrier. He only dared to vent his anger at me, "Ruan Nanzhi, stop doing such vicious things and pretending to be a quail! Speak to me!"
I opened my mouth lightly, "What?"
"You are the one who does the work today, right?"
I looked up at the traffic light and said, "Even if I said no, you wouldn't believe me, right?"
"I don't believe it! Apart from you, who else would have a grudge against our Xingyu!" Shen Li gritted his teeth in anger, as if he couldn't wait to rush over and avenge Shen Xingyu.
I said coldly: "Then it is what you say."
If there is any opportunity that can be denied, I will deny it no matter what I say.
I don't have the wealth and support that Shen Xingyu has, so I wouldn't panic at all even if killing someone was against the law.
For me, the less trouble the better.
Chen Qi was stunned for a moment, and asked suspiciously: "Is it you?"
I played the bad cop, and Zhou Fang played the bad cop. "Auntie, do you think she knows someone who dares to attack the Shen family?"
"You have a point!"
Shen Li firmly believed in the principle of bullying the weak, and Zhou Fang's words hit the mark.
How could a person like me have the right to bully her precious daughter?
She paused for a moment, then warned in a cold voice, "Ruan Nanzhi, you'd better stay so honest. Otherwise, if you dare to hurt even a hair on Xingyu's head, I will make you suffer a fate worse than death!"
After he finished speaking, he hung up the phone.
I glanced at Zhou Fang, a question mark slowly appearing on my face, "Why didn't you stop Jin Jie, and even helped me deceive the Shen family?"
Does he have a private feud with Shen Xingyu?
He drooped his eyelids and said nonchalantly, "Don't be so sentimental. I just wanted to deal with her."
I said straightforwardly: "Well, then today's matter is yours."
I can take revenge on Shen Xingyu and clear myself of any connection at the same time, so why not do it?
Zhou Fang glanced at me and laughed, "Ruan Nanzhi, you're quite good at climbing up the ladder, huh?"
"Give it back!"
I smiled and said, "But when did you know about this?"
Zhou Fang looked at me like I was a fool. "Do you think Jin Jie would have informed me before he took action?"
I frowned and thought about it, then understood, "I understand."
Regarding this matter, Jin Jie would tell Zhou Fang whatever he said.
If Zhou Fang nodded, then he would be doing Zhou Fang a favor. After all, I asked him that day to borrow his power. If anything goes wrong, Zhou Fang will cover him up.
If Zhou Fang stopped him, it would save him a lot of trouble and he wouldn't have to take the risk of being retaliated by the Shen family after the incident.
Anyway, no matter how you think about it, he won't suffer any loss at all.
After returning to Jiangcheng No. 1 and getting out of the elevator, we parted ways and went home.
I had just collapsed onto the sofa when the doorbell rang.
Don’t you want to take the blame?
I lazily walked towards the entrance, unlocking the door and casually saying, "Mr. Zhou, are you changing your mind again and don't want to carry..."
However, the person standing outside the door was Lu Shiyan.
He had a gentle smile on his face. When he heard me say "it's Zhou Fang", his eyes froze for a moment, then he said gently, "Nanzhi, you haven't eaten yet, right?"
"Not yet."
I smiled and shook my head, "Senior, why are you here?"
"I got off work early today and bought you some food."
He raised the cooler bag in his hand and said, "I guarantee you'll like it."
I saw the logo on the cooler bag and was surprised. "Isn't this fresh fish restaurant in the north of the city? Not only is there traffic jam at night, but there's also a queue..."
This restaurant is an old brand in Jiangcheng. We ate there when we were in college.
At that time, I was full of energy. As long as I had time, I was willing to run any distance for a bite to eat.
Lu Shiyan smiled slightly, "If you can enjoy your meal, I'm happy to run myself to death."
“…Thank you, Senior!”
I hesitated for a moment, then took the thermal bag from him and said, "You must not have eaten yet, right? Let's eat together."
As I said that, I bent down and took out a pair of slippers from the shoe cabinet.
"It's disrespectful."
He strode in, his eyes and eyebrows showing joy.
It seems that having a meal with me is such a happy thing.
But, I am afraid that I cannot repay this deep and sincere love.
Lu Shiyan changed his shoes and came over to help me take out the vegetables from the thermal bag and open them one by one.
The fragrance is refreshing.
I tried the pepper and numbing fish, and my appetite was instantly whetted. I exclaimed, "The taste hasn't changed at all!"
"I knew you would like it."
Lu Shiyan breathed a sigh of relief, a smile reaching his eyes, "If you like it, I can buy it often in the future."
"No, this store is too far away."
I grabbed a shrimp and politely declined, "Including the traffic and the queue, it would take three or four hours to go there and back. It's not necessary."
His eyes were blazing, "If you like it, then it's necessary."
