Even Shen Wangshu was stunned by that spit.
She stared blankly up at her little face.
Nangong Xiang remained defiant, staring intently at Nangong Yao.
Nangong Yao wiped his face and flew into a rage.
He had never been insulted like this before!
What's more, what infuriated Nangong Yao was that his own sister had spat on him in public, which made him incredibly embarrassed.
"You!" He was never one to show mercy to women, not even his own sister.
Even the Si Xin sisters could be tied up back then, showing his natural disdain for women. He showed no pity for his sister either. He raised his hand high, his gaze icy, and said, "You're getting more and more outrageous!" His hand slapped down towards Nangong Xiang's face. If it landed on the young girl's face, it wouldn't just leave a bloody scalp, but would at least crook her mouth. Si Xin watched as Nangong Xiang neither dodged nor avoided the blow, pursed her lips, and did nothing at all, just lowered her head and twisted the hem of her clothes.
She couldn't help but admit that she felt a sense of joy the moment Nangong Xiang was about to be beaten.
Even the most tolerant person will feel happy to see someone who opposes them being beaten.
It was as if, in some mysterious way, his lover had avenged him.
However, the slap did not actually land on Nangong Xiang's face.
A long, strong hand gripped Nangong Yao's wrist tightly. A-Ye, her face grim and cold, stood in front of Nangong Xiang, looking at Nangong Yao indifferently.
"What, President Dongfang wants to meddle in the Nangong family's affairs?"
Although Dongfang Xuan ruined Nangong Yao's business and caused him a lot of trouble, Nangong Yao was not the type to bow down to anyone over such a small matter.
If the business world values reconciliation and the idea of remaining friends if there's profit to be made, then Nangong Yao's stance is definitely "Since you're heartless, shameless, and unreasonable, then we'll go our separate ways from now on." He had no intention of getting close to Dongfang Xuan, and seeing A Ye, a man he considered somewhat mysterious, protecting Nangong Xiang, he immediately sneered.
"I'm not familiar with Miss Nangong." Stopping Nangong Yao from getting beaten up wasn't Dongfang Xuan's order. He was seething with anger, wishing he could personally roll up his sleeves and give Nangong Xiang a beating. Seeing this turn of events, he glanced at Aye with surprise, then smiled calmly, distancing himself from any connection with Nangong Xiang.
Not only are they not familiar with each other, but Nangong Xiang is also a stumbling block in his and Shen Wangshu's destined world. How annoying.
Nangong Xiang just stared blankly at the tall figure in front of her.
"A man who actually wants to hit a woman is utterly despicable," A-Ye said coldly.
He was still a little confused.
Why did they suddenly appear and block Nangong Xiang's way?
The body is so honest...
Seeing A-Ye's stunned expression, Dongfang Xuan coughed, touched his nose, and then continued gently, "It was just a matter of standing up for what was right. Besides, my A-Ye can't stand seeing things like this."
"Thank you, Uncle Ye." Nangong Xiang felt she should express her gratitude to Ye.
Um... Just now, Nangong Yao actually dared to hit her. Nangong Xiang was willing to risk taking that slap, walk around the main road a few times, get her injuries checked, and report him for personal injury.
Although she knew perfectly well that with Nangong Yao's status, even calling the police wouldn't do anything, she was determined to create chaos. Since Nangong Yao was making things difficult for others, she wouldn't let him have peace either. Did she think that if she kept making a scene, Nangong Yao would look good? Just as she was thinking of a lose-lose solution, she was stopped by A-Ye.
A sinister glint flashed across "Uncle Ye's" lips.
However, it's not that Miss Nangong treats him like an elder; it's just that Miss Nangong really takes her good friend's words seriously and genuinely thinks he's her uncle.
Moreover, isn't it only natural for a 30-year-old man to be called "uncle" by a 17 or 18-year-old girl?
"Call him A-Ye," Shen Wangshu whispered secretly.
"Isn't he my uncle?" Nangong Xiang asked, still in shock.
Aye suddenly had a strong urge to grab Nangong Yao's hand and slap the culprit who had turned her into "uncle" across the face.
Shen Wangshu shrank back and dared not utter a sound.
"Next time President Nangong makes a move, I won't be polite." Aye disliked the repulsive woman's scent on Nangong Yao, shook off his hand, and saw Si Xin cry out and throw herself into Nangong Yao's arms, covering his face with a handkerchief to wipe his face, looking extremely distressed. She couldn't help but snort with disdain.
He simply took a step back, returning to Dongfang Xuan's side, still appearing taciturn. Nangong Xiang, however, couldn't help but stare at his face, momentarily stunned, before letting out a soft snort.
Shen Wangshu smiled secretly.
She swept her probing gaze over A-Ye, then looked at Nangong Xiang.
Ah Ye coldly looked down at her.
"Brother." Si Xin was heartbroken, her eyes blurry with tears. Looking at the man with a livid face, lost in thought, she turned to A Ye accusingly, "How could you be so insolent!"
"What kind of man is it to hide behind a woman and tell her to uphold justice?" Shen Wangshu chuckled.
She was actually in a good mood today, but Si Xin had ruined it all. She wasn't the type to argue with Si Xin or insist on winning against her, so she simply tidied up the glittering jewelry in front of her, slowly got up, and gestured for Dongfang Xuan to pay the bill.
The boy, beaming with delight, defeated the dazed Nangong Xiang and became the biggest spender. Satisfied, he said to Shen Wangshu, "From now on, come to me for all your money, Shushu." He whispered in Shen Wangshu's ear, overjoyed.
