Xiang Nanzhi searched the construction site for a long time but couldn't find Shen Shixun.
Dust was everywhere, and for Xiang Nanzhi, who had never set foot here before, every step was a nightmare.
She wandered around in circles, finally losing her temper, and grabbed an old man at random, asking, "Where's Shen Shixun?"
"who?"
"Shen Shixun?"
"What honor?"
"Shen Shixun".
"What Sehun?"
Several workers wearing work hats came in from outside and noticed the pretty woman standing on the construction site.
She possessed an outstanding temperament; her mere presence was a beautiful sight to behold. She exuded an ethereal charm that others dared not compliment. People would only glance at her before quickly averting their gaze, ceasing their conversation, and walking inside with their heads down.
"Gentlemen, wait a minute!" Xiang Nanzhi lifted her skirt and walked around a pile of cement puddles in front of her. "Excuse me, do you know Shen Shixun?"
Shen Shixun, who doesn't know him on the construction site? He's a workaholic.
What do you want with him?
"I need to speak with him..."
Speak of the devil, and he appears. The man had just taken a shower with a large hose at the construction site and was wearing flip-flops.
Several pairs of eyes turned to look, and Xiang Nanzhi couldn't help but stare at the person who came in. The man's black short-sleeved T-shirt covered his strong muscles, his hair was half wet, and he looked at her with a hint of shock. There was a towel draped over the back of his neck.
Xiang Nan knew he wasn't particular, but his bizarre appearance still shocked her once again.
The thought of his child in her belly made her feel even more nauseous...
"Sehun, this young lady says she's here to see you."
"Sehun, who is this...?"
While she was vomiting, Shen Shixun didn't even glance at her before turning and leaving.
"Shen Shixun, wait a minute, Shen Shixun..."
Having finally caught him, she couldn't let him get away. The man walked quickly, ignoring her completely, and turned to leave.
Xiang Nanzhi, wearing a pair of lambskin shoes, stepped on the uneven stones on the construction site. "Shen Shixun, stop right there."
Why are you running?
"Shen Shixun!"
The woman, dressed in a white dress that revealed her slender legs, was running so fast that she didn't see the protruding steel bar. "Shen Shixun, are you deaf?!"
She yelled, and the piece of steel bar hit her ankle. She screamed, tears welling up in her eyes, and gasped in pain.
The man took the towel off his neck, turned around, and threw the towel into the basin outside.
Afraid he would leave, Xiang Nanzhi rushed over despite the pain in her ankle, grabbing his arm tightly, "You run away again, you run away again!"
He doesn't answer phone calls or reply to messages. All he does is carry bricks on construction sites all day. People without brains can only make money through physical labor. He's born to be a laborer.
Under everyone's watchful eyes, it was Shen Shixun who blushed first. As a member of an ethnic minority, his skin was naturally a shade darker than normal, and being busy on the construction site made it even more difficult to describe.
Xiang Nanzhi took out a form from his bag. "This hospital is far from the city center of the ancient city. It can perform the surgery for me... but they will definitely require a family member to sign it."
In country H, unborn children are protected, and the husband's signature is required for an abortion.
Upon hearing this, the man tried to get up, but Xiang Nanzhi grabbed his arm tightly. "Shen Shixun, give us both a quick death,"
They didn't love each other. He was unwilling to marry into the Xiang family, and she didn't like him at all. How could they have a child under these circumstances?
“My father is old, his word doesn’t count. You… I can give you whatever amount of money you want.”
The man took the form from her hand, glanced at it carefully, then picked it up and tore it to shreds with a large wave of his hand.
"Shen Shixun, what are you doing?!"
Xiang Nanzhi was so angry that she wanted to bite him. Seeing the shredded paper from the document flying all over the construction site, she raised her hand and slapped the man's arm with a "smack!"
Not satisfied, "Slap!" He slapped her again with force.
She was so angry she lost her temper, but the man remained unmoved, leaning against a nearby telephone pole and lighting a cigarette.
Xiang Nanzhi sat back down in her previous seat, crying, and wiped away her tears.
Neither of them spoke for a while. She had cried enough, so she slowly got up, her tone turning cold.
Gone was the previous conciliatory tone; now it carried a hint of threat: "So, you're going to refuse a polite toast only to face a forfeit?"
The man had already spotted the group of people hiding in the shadows, but he acted as if nothing was wrong and took a deep drag on his cigarette.
"Come out here, all of you! Beat them! Beat them to death!"
Xiang Nanzhi didn't actually want to break ties with him. She had roughly figured out the man's wild nature; he didn't like being restrained and was a stubborn mule.
But he really deserves a beating.
Several men emerged and pinned Shen Shixun down, punching and kicking him relentlessly. Xiang Nanzhi, unable to vent his anger, picked up a still-burning cigarette butt from the ground and smacked it against one of the men's arms.
Smoke hissed out, and the man grunted, staring at her with a defiant look.
"I'll give you one more chance, will you sign or not?"
"I won't sign."
Without the slightest hesitation, he was neither afraid of being hit nor of pain.
Xiang Nan, refusing to believe it, shoved the cigarette butt in hard. "Sign it or not?"
Several bodyguards were somewhat stunned by her. Shen Shixun waved his hand, breaking free from the security guards, and pulled her into his arms, gripping her neck tightly. "Ah..."
"Is it fun?"
Xiang Nanzhi was having trouble breathing, as if a python had coiled around her neck. "Shen Shixun, how dare you! My dad and my brother will not let you get away with this."
"Are you all dead? Attack!"
Several bodyguards tried their best to pull Shen Shixun's hand away, but they couldn't. They hit him with sticks and fists, but the man didn't budge an inch.
Xiang Nanzhi felt uncomfortable being strangled and coughed a few times before the man loosened his grip. Upon seeing this, the bodyguards quickly pulled him away.
"Beat them! Beat them to death!"
As she spoke, she clutched her lower abdomen, saying, "Press him down."
She stepped on the man's hand and said, "Shen Shixun, let me tell you, don't think I can't do anything just because you don't sign. I have plenty of ways."
Once Xiang Nanzhi had walked away, the workers dared to approach. "Sehun, how are you, Sehun?"
"Cough cough..."
The man choked on a lot of sand. He went to the side, turned on the tap, and rinsed his head under the water to clear his head. He also washed the blood off his face.
Inside the car, Xiang Nanzhi kept crying. She called Song Ze, but he didn't answer.
Two months ago, after that incident happened, her whole life changed.
——
It's common knowledge in this ancient city that Xiang Nanzhi likes Song Ze. The richest girl in the city, the Xiang family, has fallen in love with Song Ze, a physics genius from the ancient university.
They were a perfect match, a handsome man and a beautiful woman, and agreed to get married after graduation. Their parents had also met.
However, an unexpected turn of events occurred.
Someone got hold of Song Ze's phone and sent a message to Xiang Nanzhi, asking her to meet at an abandoned construction site outside the city.
She thought it was Song Ze who had invited her, so she dressed up beautifully and went happily, but when she arrived, she didn't see Song Ze.
