But Ye Ningwan quickly realized what was happening and ran towards Pei Fengzhi, hiding behind Pei Fengzhi's wheelchair. She looked at Pei Fengzhi pitifully and said...
"Honey! Waaah, I've been bullied."
As she spoke, she stretched out her slender, fair wrist, which was covered in red marks that had now turned slightly bluish-purple.
"Look..."
She sobbed, feigning weakness and helplessness, like a small white flower swaying in the wind, ready to break at any moment.
The bodyguard who had just thrown Pei Minghan out twitched his usually cold face, barely managing to suppress a laugh after a long time.
Madam Jiu probably didn't know that Master Jiu had already arrived.
To the bodyguard's surprise, Pei Fengzhi not only exposed Ye Ningwan, but also glanced at the bodyguard indifferently.
The bodyguard, who had been exuding a menacing aura and appearing exceptionally fierce, suddenly felt a chill run down his spine and immediately lowered his head, standing respectfully several meters away.
Pei Fengzhi then turned to look at his "delicate and timid" little wife and gently reached out his hand to her.
"come over."
Ye Ningwan shifted her body like a tortoise, only to have Pei Fengzhi grab her hand, interlock their fingers, and pull her in front of him.
Although Pei Fengzhi's expression remained gentle, his actions left no room for doubt.
He took out a handkerchief and carefully wiped the places where Ye Ningwan had been touched by Pei Minghan. After wiping each time, Pei Fengzhi threw the used handkerchief aside.
Pei Fengzhi stopped wiping Ye Ningwan's fair skin after wiping it repeatedly countless times, until a faint red tinge appeared on her skin.
He raised his head, his long, narrow phoenix eyes still carrying a gentle aura, and smiled faintly.
"Then I'll avenge you, okay?"
Pei Fengzhi gently stroked the reddened area where Ye Ningwan had been rubbed, the spot burning hot, whether from the rubbing or from Pei Fengzhi's incredibly hot fingers.
Ye Ningwan bit her lower lip, subconsciously avoiding Pei Fengzhi's gaze, and then looked at Pei Minghan, who was lying on the ground clutching his chest and unable to get up for a long time.
Pei Minghan also looked up and met Ye Ningwan's porcelain-white and beautiful face. He suddenly propped himself up, as if he had been given a stimulant, and tried to stand up.
The next second, Ye Ningwan calmly withdrew her gaze and spoke to Pei Fengzhi with extreme indifference.
"Okay, then you have to make sure I'm satisfied."
Her voice was soft and sweet, and paired with her fox-like face, she would have been considered a femme fatale who brought ruin to the country if she lived in ancient times.
Pei Fengzhi smiled, a smile so gentle.
Pei Minghan raised her head in disbelief, her eyes widening in astonishment as she stared at Ye Ningwan.
Before he could even make a sound, he was lifted off the ground, and the fierce-looking bodyguard grabbed his collar again and punched him hard in the face.
Then came punch after punch.
Pei Minghan was like a spineless shrimp, powerless to fight back against the fierce bodyguard.
Pei Fengzhi's bodyguard was clearly no ordinary bodyguard; he was more like a seasoned killer who had crawled out of mountains of corpses and seas of blood, ruthless, strong, and capable.
Pei Minghan used to be able to stubbornly shout and curse, and occasionally even throw a punch at the bodyguard, but unfortunately the bodyguard dodged it every time.
A few minutes later, Pei Minghan was beaten so badly that she couldn't even scream anymore.
Ye Ningwan remained standing there, her expression unchanged, watching everything indifferently. The way she looked at Pei Minghan was as if she were looking at a dead person.
Pei Fengzhi, meanwhile, gazed at Ye Ningwan with a smile, a tender and lingering smile on his lips, so deep and intense.
Both remained silent, seemingly waiting for the other to speak.
It was like a power struggle, and Pei Minghan was the one who got hurt.
Finally, a sharp female voice suddenly rang out on the quiet, almost deserted road inside the villa area.
"Stop! What are you trying to do! Let him go!"
With that scream, the figure staggered and limped towards them, lunging at the bodyguard who had raised his fist high, tearing and punching him wildly.
The bodyguard was stopped abruptly by Ye Ruoxin's sudden appearance, but he still held Pei Minghan's collar tightly in his hand.
The bodyguard naturally wouldn't lay a hand on a slender, thin woman; he simply stood there and let Ye Ruoxin scratch and bite him.
"Let him go! Let him go right now!"
Without Pei Fengzhi's orders, the bodyguards naturally couldn't release Pei Minghan.
He finally got annoyed by Ye Ruoxin's attacks, which weren't very harmful but were extremely annoying. He frowned, grabbed Pei Minghan's neck, raised his hand, pushed Ye Ruoxin away, and warned her sharply.
"Stop, or I'll snap his neck right now!"
Ye Ruoxin was pushed back a few steps, twisted her ankle, and felt the pain intensify. Tears almost welled up in her eyes, but she managed to hold them back. She gritted her teeth and glared at the bodyguard, but dared not take another step forward.
Ye Ruoxin was silent for a moment, then finally looked at Pei Fengzhi, her eyes red and choked with sobs as she spoke.
"Master Pei... Ninth Master, Minghan... Minghan is still your nephew... Could you please..."
Ye Ruoxin put on a pitiful and tearful look, which indeed had a magical power to soften men's hearts and make them feel sorry for her.
But Pei Fengzhi is no ordinary person after all.
He withdrew his gaze from Ye Ningwan, giving Ye Ruoxin a cool and disdainful look, his thin lips parting slightly indifferently.
