Suddenly, a few VIP guests arrived at the door.
The staff greeted them with enthusiasm, exercising utmost care.
"Sister ng, if you ask , with Junyan’s return this ti, your days will be much easier. If that Jian Xi dares to provoke you again, just let him deal with her. Last ti in the garage, she didn’t learn her lesson, that damned bitch..."
As she walked in, she ca face to face with Jian Xi, who was clearly enjoying herself.
Xiang Yao’s brows furrowed tightly. She imdiately turned to a nearby staff mber. "Didn’t I say that today was for Sister ng to relax? We’ve booked the whole place. How do you people manage things?"
She must have overheard what I just said. Xiang Yao felt a pang of fear and guilt.
Jian Xi, wrapped in a bath towel, stepped out. "Speaking ill of and afraid I’d hear?"
What a petty creature; her thoughts are written all over her face.
Wan Yu laughed heartily. "Look at yourself. What makes you think you can just book the whole place? Aren’t you aware that this project is an investnt of the Jian Family?"
The staff mber nodded. "I apologize. The exclusive booking you requested was only for the third floor. You are not authorized to book the entire fifth floor, which is reserved for VIPs."
Jiang Qing’s expression instantly darkened, and she shot Xiang Yao a sharp glance.
Xiang Yao hung her head in apology. "Sister ng, I didn’t know this was invested in by the Jian Family."
Damn it!
How could I have forgotten? Most of these high-end, upscale tourist resorts are Jian Group enterprises.
"Miss Jian, we’re bound to run into each other. Surely you wouldn’t be so petty over a place to relax?" Jiang Qing stepped forward to diate.
"You’re the ones gossiping behind people’s backs. Don’t try to act all high and mighty as if we’re the ones picking a fight," Wan Yu retorted, not about to let her off easy. She was just short of pointing at Jiang Qing’s nose and cursing, "Jiang Qing, I truly admire your knack for manipulating people to be your pawns. With so many fools being used by you, you must be so pleased with yourself you probably wake up laughing from your dreams, right?"
Jian Xi couldn’t help but laugh. Wan Yu’s mouth was often like a nuclear weapon.
It could absolutely demolish the other party.
Just like now, Jiang Qing’s pretty and dignified facade was crumbling.
Xiang Yao, having suffered countless losses before, directly dragged Jiang Qing away, preparing to beat a hasty retreat.
Unexpectedly, the door opened again, and Si Junyan entered from outside.
"It’s quite lively in here."
When Xiang Yao saw who had arrived, she imdiately complained, "It’s them! They said Sister ng has no sha, and they even talked about kicking us out."
"Second Young Master Si, you can’t just stand by and do nothing!"
Jiang Qing hurriedly pleaded with him, "Junyan, you’ve finally returned from the Northwest. You know how much hardship you endured. You mustn’t act recklessly out of loyalty again; it’s not worth it for my sake."
Her words ignited the fury simring deep within Si Junyan.
He had been banished from Beijing and dispatched to the remote Northwest all because of Jian Xi.
And Jiang Qing, whom he cherished so dearly, was definitely not soone who could be bullied by just anyone.
"Jiang Qing, you really know how to stir up trouble! You’re more than shaless; you’re utterly despicable and unscrupulous!" Wan Yu seethed.
SLAP!
Nobody expected Si Junyan to brutally strike Wan Yu across the face.
"Si Junyan!" Jian Xi was furious.
How dare he hit my best friend right in front of ! That’s even more unbearable than if he’d hit myself.
Before Jian Xi could react, Wan Yu lunged at him like a little madwoman, wildly scratching and biting.
Si Junyan, being a man, couldn’t very well punch and kick a woman. He could only yell, "Soone, co quick! Pull this mad dog off ! Get her off !"
Jiang Qing was terrified.
She’d never seen such a crazed woman.
Jian Xi went over to help Wan Yu, seizing the opportunity to land a few kicks on Si Junyan.
By the ti security arrived, Si Junyan was a complete ss. His clothes were torn, and his tie was wrapped around his neck, nearly strangling him. A vivid ligature mark was visible on his neck, his face bore nurous bloody scratches, and his clothes were sared with a considerable amount of nosebleed.
"Ah! Wan Yu, I’m going to kill you!"
Si Junyan was enraged. Jiang Qing’s lips curled into a smirk as she waited for the good show to unfold.
Just as he raised his fist, two security guards imdiately restrained him.
SMACK!
Jian Xi seized the mont and fiercely slapped him back.
The crisp sound of the slap echoed throughout the entire hot spring inn.
Jiang Qing was shocked.
Xiang Yao was shocked.
Even Si Junyan, the man himself, was shocked.
Wan Yu shouted, "Mighty, domineering, and cool!"
Indeed, that was her good sister. Wan Yu felt the pent-up frustration she had been holding back finally dissipate.
Jian Xi pointed at him and warned, "You better rember this: you’re on Jian Family territory. How dare you lay a finger on and my friends? Did your trip to the Northwest short-circuit your brain?!"
She clapped her hands lightly. "That slap was for the disrespect you just showed Wan Yu. Si Junyan, I don’t care what underhanded tricks you used to return to Beijing so quickly. But rember this: I, Jian Xi, won’t let anyone who dares to provoke off easily. We’ll see about that."
Jian Xi, holding Wan Yu’s hand, pushed past Jiang Qing, who was watching the commotion, and they walked away with a swagger.
Without looking back, Jian Xi instructed the security guards, "Throw these people out. Without my permission, they are not allowed to appear within any business areas owned by the Jian Family in the future."
The security guard responded, "Yes!"
"Jian Xi! This isn’t over!" Si Junyan trembled with rage.
Jiang Qing threw herself at him. "Junyan, are you alright? How could she do this to you? You’re a man, to be humiliated like this..."
Seeing the woman he loved witness his most humiliating mont, Si Junyan’s hatred intensified.
I will kill Jian Xi with my own hands! I definitely will!
His eyes were a vengeful crimson, as if they could spout blood.
「...」
After leaving, Wan Yu felt a lingering fear.
"It’s a good thing we were at this hot spring inn, which is under the Jian Group. Otherwise, we would have been in serious trouble today."
Jian Xi nodded. "Starting tomorrow, we all need to learn mixed martial arts. It’s not just for self-defense; it also made realize the physical disparity between n and won. To protect herself, a woman can’t just rely on passion; she needs so real skills."
"Agreed."
Wan Yu was still worried. "Si Junyan won’t let us off, will he? Especially after that slap you gave him right in front of Jiang Qing. He’ll probably hate you to the bone. Honestly, you didn’t need to make such a bitter enemy of him just for ."
"Even without you, it would still be a vendetta. If he doesn’t seek revenge on , my life would lose a lot of its fun."
Jian Xi’s red lips curled into a aningful smile.
Wan Yu couldn’t shake the feeling that, at this mont, Jian Xi was a woman with many untold stories.
Of course, Jian Xi couldn’t reveal that Si Junyan was already a pawn in her revenge plan.
Today was just a small warm-up, a little payback for last ti!
"Does it hurt?" Jian Xi turned and gently touched Wan Yu’s face.
Wan Yu shook her head. "This slap I received was well worth it, considering all the injuries he got and how it vented my anger!"
"You silly girl. In the future, don’t provoke that kind of desperate madman again. Let handle her."
"Okay, okay, okay," Wan Yu agreed verbally. But in her heart, she silently swore she would find a better way to protect her best friend.
Jian Xi’s phone rang. It was a call from the hospital.
"Miss Jian, you made an appointnt with us for a consultation due to prolonged vomiting. When would you like to co in?" the nurse on the other end asked.
