Chapter 299 Lesson
In this situation, struggling is futile; the only option is to fight to the death.
Lu Ziyi's eyes suddenly sharpened, and he coldly retorted, "I've ended up in this state all because you forced me to!"
As he spoke, he paused slightly, raised his eyes to look directly at Si Yanxiao, a look of disdain flashing across his face, and said in a cold, mocking voice, "What kind of person is the head of the Si family? I think he's nothing special!"
"If someone can be so easily fooled by a woman, the Si Group will only decline further under someone like you!"
Seeing his malicious and reckless remarks about Si Yanxiao, Jiang Ran's gaze darkened, and she suddenly let out a cold laugh.
Upon hearing the sound, Lu Ziyi turned his head to look, but before he could ask any questions, Jiang Ran immediately sneered.
"You're clearly stupid and ignorant, yet you can't stand seeing others do well. What kind of mentality is that?"
"If Si Yanxiao is really as useless as you say, how can he hold onto this position? Do you think everyone else is blind and only you are clear-headed?"
"Little did he know that he was the biggest fool of all, yet he still thought himself superior. He was utterly foolish!"
Jiang Ran mocked Lu Ziyi in front of everyone, and Lu Ziyi's expression suddenly changed. He shouted angrily, "What did you say!"
"Can't you understand human language?" Jiang Ran raised her eyes and looked at him coldly, showing no fear on her face, and then retorted in a cold voice.
Seeing that Lu Ziyi was rendered speechless by Jiang Ran, Si Yanxiao's lips curled slightly, and a strange emotion flashed in his eyes.
When I was prejudiced against her, I found her sharp tongue really annoying, but now when I listen to her, I feel inexplicably comfortable.
He then glanced coldly at Lu Ziyi and said in a low voice with a mocking tone, "This is all your own fault, and you still have the nerve to blame others?"
As he spoke, his eyes suddenly turned sharp: "He's just a gigolo who lives off women, what right does he have to talk nonsense in front of me!"
Lu Ziyi couldn't stand being told he relied on women, and Si Yanxiao's words struck a chord with him. A ruthless glint flashed in his eyes, and he didn't bother arguing with them anymore. He simply and coldly ordered, "Get them!"
Upon hearing this, the thugs behind him swarmed forward with sticks in hand. Seeing this, all the bodyguards except the two responsible for protecting the twins joined in.
Si Yanxiao also joined the battle, charging straight at Lu Ziyi. Some of the henchmen who tried to attack him were either stopped by the bodyguards or kicked to the ground by him.
Seeing Si Yanxiao approach, Lu Ziyi's eyes flashed with panic. He grabbed Jiang Ran in front of him, held the weapon to her neck, and coldly warned, "Try taking another step closer!"
Upon hearing this, Si Yanxiao frowned slightly, stopped in his tracks, and looked down at the movements in his hands with a cold gaze. His eyes suddenly darkened.
"Tell your men to back off!" he said, raising the dagger to bring it closer to his neck.
Seeing this, Si Yanxiao quickly and sternly stopped him: "Wait! I'll let you go!"
Upon hearing this, Lu Ziyi paused in his actions.
Jiang Ran raised her eyes and looked at Si Yanxiao seriously, then suddenly said, "It's not worth letting such scum go for my sake."
As she spoke, her eyes flashed slightly, and Si Yanxiao instantly understood. Before Lu Ziyi could make any move, Jiang Ran suddenly took a half step back and stomped on Lu Ziyi's instep with all her might.
Lu Ziyi was caught off guard by Jiang Ran's sudden attack. He was in pain and a flash of anger crossed his face. He raised his knife and was about to stab Jiang Ran.
At the critical moment, Si Yanxiao stepped forward and blocked his movement, and with a counter-grab, knocked the dagger to the ground. Lu Ziyi was completely powerless against Si Yanxiao.
Without hostages or daggers, Lu Ziyi's fighting ability was no match for Si Yanxiao's. Si Yanxiao's face was cold, and he showed no mercy, delivering blow after blow.
At the same time, the thugs that Lu Ziyi brought were also subdued. The local thugs were no match for the professionally trained bodyguards, and it was only a matter of time before they were defeated.
Si Zuochen and Si Youlin watched the battle with cold eyes. Lu Ziyi's face was covered in bruises. His once handsome face was now unrecognizable. He lay on the ground, crying out in pain.
Si Yanxiao looked down at him, paused slowly, and said in a low, cold voice, "You think this is the end?"
Hearing Si Yanxiao's warning, Lu Ziyi couldn't help but shudder.
Seeing his appearance, Si Yanxiao's face flashed with disdain. He then stood up and coldly ordered, "Take him away, just spare his life."
"Yes." The bodyguard nodded slightly, and then two men came up and dragged Lu Ziyi away.
Si Yanxiao lowered his eyes to look at Jiang Ran, his gaze slightly darkening, and asked in a low voice, "Are you alright?"
"It's nothing." Jiang Ran smiled slightly. Si Zuochen and Si Youlin quickly approached and looked her up and down to see if she had any injuries.
Such a scene was rare to see, and a strange feeling suddenly rose in Jiang Ran's heart.
"Thanks to you all so much this time..."
His words were full of gratitude, but then a hint of confusion flashed in his eyes, and he asked in a deep voice, "How did you know I was in trouble?"
Upon hearing this, Si Yanxiao immediately explained, "It's all thanks to Achen and Alin; they were distracted and noticed you were missing first."
"If it had been any later, who knows what might have happened!"
As he spoke, a cold glint flashed in his eyes. Recalling Lu Ziyi's actions, a sinister look appeared between his brows.
But when Si Zuochen and Si Youlin were mentioned, a hint of approval flashed across his face. He had initially thought they were precocious, but in terms of their actions, they were still quite childish.
Unexpectedly, the two remained calm in the face of danger, and their reasoned and clear thinking changed his opinion of them.
Upon hearing this, Jiang Ran lowered her eyes to look at the twins. Both of them pursed their lips, and an unnatural look flashed across their faces.
Seeing this, Jiang Ran's lips curled up slightly, and she chuckled softly, praising him in a low voice, "Thank you."
"No need," Si Zuochen replied softly, his eyes slightly lowered.
Then, with a slight glint in his eyes, he changed the subject and said, "Let's go, what are we doing gathered here?"
Upon hearing this, Jiang Ran softly agreed, and then the four of them turned and left.
Before leaving, as I passed the warehouse door, I could still hear cries of pain coming from inside.
The group didn't even glance at him. Lu Ziyi had angered Si Yanxiao this time, and he was likely to be beaten half to death.
Jiang Ran's eyes narrowed slightly, and she suddenly scoffed, "We hadn't even determined his hiding place yet, and who knew he would suddenly show up."
Upon hearing this, Si Yanxiao's eyes turned cold, and he echoed in a low voice, "He can't wait any longer..."
Upon hearing this, Jiang Ran looked up at Si Yanxiao, and a thought suddenly flashed through her mind.
Si Yanxiao assumed that Lu Ziyi's actions stemmed from personal grudges, but she had a different perspective.
Bai Zhuwei is inextricably linked to the person behind the scenes. Could Lu Ziyi's sudden risky actions also be related to her?
Bai Zhuwei is a woman of deep thoughts; how could she possibly let such an opportunity slip by? She is very likely to form an alliance with them.
Thinking of this, a cold glint flashed across Jiang Ran's face.
If several people join forces, and someone behind the scenes comes up with the strategy, things will become even more complicated.
Si Yanxiao noticed Jiang Ran's situation, raised an eyebrow, and asked with a puzzled expression, "What's wrong?"
Jiang Ran snapped back to reality, slowly shook her head, and whispered, "It's nothing."
He then turned to Si Zuochen and asked him about the details of their search.
Si Yanxiao's eyes flickered slightly, but he didn't say anything more.
News of Jiang Ran's kidnapping quickly reached Jiang Yuechen's ears. Jiang Yuechen stopped everything he was doing and rushed to the villa.
Jiang Ran was sitting in the lobby processing Taobao orders, with Si Zuochen and Si Youlin helping her.
The butler had met Jiang Yuechen beforehand and knew that he had a close relationship with Jiang Ran, so he did not stop them.
Hearing footsteps, the group turned around and saw Jiang Yuechen walking towards them.
"uncle."
Si Zuochen and Si Youlin quickly stood up and called out.
Jiang Yuechen nodded slightly in acknowledgment.
Upon seeing Jiang Ran, Jiang Yuechen frowned immediately and hurried over, anxiously asking, "Ran, are you alright?"
As he spoke, he stepped forward and examined Jiang Ran from left to right.
A hint of helplessness flashed across Jiang Ran's face as she softly replied, "Don't worry, I'm perfectly fine."
Jiang Yuechen's expression suddenly turned cold, and he coldly rebuked, "That bastard Lu Ziyi! How dare he lay a hand on you! If I catch him, I'll kill him!"
To push someone who is usually very mild-mannered to this point, it's clear they're extremely angry.
Seeing this, Jiang Ran quickly comforted him, "It's alright. He has already learned a heavy lesson and is probably half dead."
