Chapter 79: A Second Chance at Life



Xiang Yunduan's ears were ringing from the blow, and half of her face stung with pain. She stared at Shen Shixun in disbelief, "You dare hit me, you dare hit me...you beast..."

After being given a cold glare by the man, Xiang Yunduan dared not follow any further. The two bodyguards who chased after him were beaten black and blue by Shen Shixun.

Xiang Yunduan panicked and quickly took out her phone to call Wei Xia. "Mom, something's happened to me. Can you have Dad go to Uncle right now and tell him that I was beaten up?"

After giving her instructions, Xiang Yunduan followed him into another elevator. She was limping, and as soon as she entered the elevator, she discovered that her face was swollen from being slapped by the man.

Inside the restaurant, two bodyguards stood guard at the elevator entrance, while one guarded Xiang Nanzhi.

Wherever she went, the other party followed. "How much did Xiang Yunduan give you? I'll pay double."

"You don't believe me? You should know who I am. I'm richer than Xiang Yunduan."

Xiang Nanzhi looked at the bodyguard, who was also a little confused by her words. "Miss Xiang, please don't make things difficult for us."

"Making things difficult for you? Now you're the ones trapping me here and not letting me leave. Do you know my dad? My dad is Xiang Zhengyi, and my older brother is Xiang Jingyi. If they knew you dared to treat me like this, they would cripple you."

"Still blocking my way?"

Xiang Nanzhi took a deep breath. "Five hundred thousand, and you'll let me leave."

The bodyguard was extremely loyal to Xiang Yunduan, saying, "You can leave as long as you sign this document."

"You bastard, what are you yelling for?"

Xiang Nanzhi couldn't help but curse. The man followed her like a tail, and Xiang Nanzhi simply couldn't stand it.

"Leave your name. If you're so capable, leave your name."

Looking around, Xiang Yunduan realized she was prepared. She had been a little puzzled when she came in, as the restaurant was usually quite crowded, but there was no one eating in the dining hall today. She had assumed that Xiang Yunduan had booked the whole place for her and her sister to have some peace and quiet.

Now I realize she came prepared.

"Miss Xiang, it's not easy for me either. This industry is tough these days."

"Can I go to the restroom?"

"Do you follow me to the toilet too?"

Xiang Nanzhi went to the restroom, bypassing the elevator. The bodyguard guarding the elevator was watching her and blocking the elevator door, so Xiang Nanzhi couldn't force her way in.

"Miss Xiang requests your return."

"Do you guys have a death wish? Do you have to follow me to the toilet?"

Just as Xiang Nanzhi finished speaking, the elevator doors opened with a ding, and the bodyguard blocking the elevator doors was kicked away.

Shen Shixun, dressed in a black suit, scooped up Xiang Nanzhi in his arms before the other bodyguard could react.

She didn't react at first, and when she saw the man, she was stunned. After a few seconds of hesitation, she quickly grabbed the man's strong waist and asked, "You, how did you get here?"

"If I don't come, do you expect me to watch them go to the toilet with you?"

Xiang Nanzhi couldn't help but laugh out loud, then glanced at the scene and said seriously, "Shen Shixun, you should run first. They're professionally trained, their methods..."

"Stop talking nonsense and come with me."

The two bodyguards realized what was happening and were about to give chase, but just as they reached the elevator door, Shen Shixun let go of her hand, saying, "Hide behind me."

The man released her as he spoke, but Xiang Nanzhi pulled him back, saying, "There are two of them, you can't beat them!"

The man only managed to grab his sleeve before throwing a punch, sending another bodyguard flying.

He was strong and showed no mercy when he hit people. His attacks were quick and ruthless. The other bodyguard was stunned and hesitated to move. Shen Shixun was not one to sit idly by and wait to be killed. He grabbed a decorative vase from the side and smashed it over the other man's head.

With a loud bang, Xiang Nanzhi couldn't help but scream in fright.

She crouched down, clutching her head, as if the vase had hit her head instead.

Shen Shixun retreated into the elevator, pressed the button, and looked at Nan Zhi, who was huddled in the corner of the elevator with her head in her hands. She looked up at him sheepishly.

She slowly stood up and looked at the man's hand. There were some scratches on the back of his hand, but they weren't serious.

"I did think about calling you, but my phone was stolen by Xiangyunduan. How did you..."

"I know."

He pulled her away, got her into the car, and left the restaurant. When they reached the floor, it was already a mess. Xiang Nanzhi had been taken away by Shen Shixun.

Xiang Yunduan's mind went blank, but she had already come up with a solution.

Inside the car, Xiang Nanzhi was still a little shaken. "My uncle's return this time was too sudden. His family didn't have any good intentions."

“My cousin actually forced me to sign the document. I don’t know where she found out that the land in the middle of the lake was bought in my name. I didn’t even know about this myself.”

“Shen Shixun…”

The man handed her a glass of water, saying, "Calm down."

Zhang Yandong briefly explained the relationship between Xiang Zhenggang and Xiang Zhengyi to him; the two families had indeed not had much contact over the years.

How did you know I was in trouble, and how did you know I was here?

The man didn't speak, and Xiang Nanzhi looked at him, "Shen Shixun..."

She wasn't sure if it was just her imagination, but she felt that this man was a little different from before.

He suddenly grabbed one of her hands. "Xiang Nanzhi, stay away from these people next time."

"knew."

Xiang Nanzhi withdrew his gaze. "We're relatives, even by blood. How was I supposed to know that Xiang Yunduan would be so bold?"

The man drove her home, and Xiang Nanzhi was still a little shaken. "My phone, Xiang Yunduan, she took my..."

The man handed her the phone, saying, "She's put it on silent. Can you set it back on?"
