After finishing, Zhan Bei Jue forcefully pulled Jiang Nan Fang and they rushed downstairs.
At the entrance of the mall, they let go of each other’s hands.
Zhan Bei Jue, with a cold expression, warned her, "I know what you’re thinking."
"Thinking you can shake my glorious image with your petty tricks? That’s far too naive."
"Take this opportunity while I’m too lazy to bother with you and stop now. Otherwise, if you really provoke me, and I decide to settle scores, you won’t have a single good day."
After speaking, Ah Zhong arrived with the car to pick him up. He told Jiang Nan Fang to get in the car.
"Let’s go, let him take you back. Don’t appear before me again if there’s nothing important. If you try any more tricks next time, I won’t be as lenient as I am today."
Jiang Nan Fang ignored his warning, even satisfied with his current reaction.
Without the child, she had no weaknesses and no longer needed to be cautious in her actions.
As long as she could make him unhappy, she felt incredibly pleased.
"Who cares about riding in your car? Didn’t you say you wanted me to stay away from you? Let’s draw the line now."
"Go on your way, and don’t talk to me anymore. Whoever initiates contact first from now on is a pig."
With that, she grabbed her bags and walked proudly towards the roadside in front of the mall.
In broad daylight, with another scheme brewing in her mind, no one could harm her.
Zhan Bei Jue was running out of time and couldn't bother with her any longer. He left with Ah Zhong.
During the evening rush hour, taxis were plying the roads one after another, but each one was occupied.
Jiang Nan Fang, carrying a pile of things, waited by the roadside for a full five minutes without a single car stopping for her.
Thinking about it, returning home so early alone was boring. Just as she was about to cross the road to grab a quick dinner,
the persistent Mrs. Zhan appeared behind her.
She was in a gleaming Bentley with two other accompanying ladies.
Seeing her standing alone by the roadside, Mrs. Zhan immediately called for the car to stop and got out.
"Jiang Nan Fang!"
"You slut! Weren't you clinging to my son, insisting on warming his bed? Why are you alone now?"
"You thing born without a mother to raise you! I’ve never seen anyone as shameless as you! It’s been so long since the divorce, yet you act like you’ve never seen a man and still latch onto my son. Why don’t you just die?"
"Let me tell you! As long as I’m here, you’ll always just be a bed warmer! My son will dump you whenever I tell him to! You’re not qualified to disrupt our mother-son relationship!"
Her eyebrows were finely drawn, her face painted snow-white, and her lips a vibrant red.
Despite being well-maintained, she still exuded a sharp and harsh old woman’s demeanor.
Jiang Nan Fang clearly remembered everything Mrs. Zhan had done and said on the day Sweetie had her accident.
She looked at her with disdain, "Don't provoke me, Zhou Wan Jun."
"I didn't want to have anything to do with your son. It was to make you unhappy that I deliberately held onto him."
"No matter how close you are to your son, what of it? Can you eat with him, drink with him, play with him, or sleep with him?"
"For this reason alone, you will never win against me. I let him go today, but if you continue to provoke me, I’ll go find him again later."
"Sleep with him twenty times a day, what can you do to me!"
"You!"
In broad daylight, in front of so many people, how could this woman be so shameless?
Mrs. Zhan, enraged, gritted her teeth, took a step forward, and raised her arm to slap her.
"The more I call you shameless, the more shameless you become, reaching the peak of insolence! Since you were born to a mother but lacked proper upbringing, today I will discipline you on behalf of your mother!"
Jiang Nan Fang grabbed her arm and sneered.
"You were born to a mother and raised by one, yet you’re still a shrew?"
"You think you can hit me with your trash status? You’re asking for death!"
"I spared you in front of your son just now, so I didn’t lay a hand on you. If you’re not afraid of making a fool of yourself in front of your friends, I don’t mind adding some blush to your cheeks!"
"You… you slut! I haven’t settled the score for hitting me last time, and you want to hit me again today?"
Jiang Nan Fang hadn't intended to strike her, but hearing her say that, she decided to slap her.
"Slap!"
Mrs. Zhan took a solid slap again.
"Yes, I hit you, so what? Who told you to disrespect your elders and touch my daughter first?"
"It’s good enough that I didn’t make you pay for my daughter’s life. You’re still spouting nonsense, and I won’t always indulge you!"
The two ladies in the car were stunned.
Being hit in front of so many people, Mrs. Zhan lost all face.
She lunged like a madwoman, trying to fight her.
"I’ll kill you! I won’t let you go! You slut, how dare you hit me? Just wait for me!"
"I’ll call someone right now to ruin that vixen’s face of yours! If I don’t beat you to death, if I don’t extinguish your seductive arrogance, Zhou Wan Jun vows not to be human!"
Jiang Nan Fang grabbed her arm again and shoved her back forcefully.
"Anyway, I have no shame and don't fear losing face. If you really want to make a scene today, I'll play along until you've had enough."
"Come on! Call someone! The bigger the scene, the better!"
"If it gets big, maybe I’ll become famous. Becoming an internet celebrity is quite profitable now. I wish you’d promote me, hurry and call someone!"
"You!"
Seeing that Mrs. Zhan was no match for the younger woman, being hit and angered to the point of almost being unable to cope, one lady got out to pull Mrs. Zhan back into the car.
"Why are you arguing with someone like her, who has no shame and will do anything, risking everything?"
"Stop talking. If people see, it’s also Zhan Jue’s reputation that’s tarnished. Ignore her. After some time, when Zhan Jue gets tired of her, she naturally won’t be so arrogant anymore."
"Let’s go, let’s get in the car. It’s not worth getting angry and hurting yourself."
Mrs. Zhan was still unwilling and wanted to call someone.
Another lady also came down to persuade her.
"To deal with such a shameless woman, we can’t be confrontational. No one in the world can beat her in thick skin."
"Listen to me, get in the car. We’ll make a long-term plan and use our wits."
"With all our sisters here, are you still afraid you won’t come up with a plan to deal with her? Don’t let momentary anger get the better of you."
"Get in the car, get in the car. We’ll spare her life today. We’ll make her repay it tenfold or a hundredfold later."
Mrs. Zhan finally, albeit reluctantly, got into the car with them.
Before leaving, the car passed by Jiang Nan Fang, and Mrs. Zhan was still shouting through the car window.
"You wait for me, Jiang Nan Fang, if you have the guts, don’t leave Nancheng! The day will come when you’ll kneel and beg me for mercy!"
"Pfft. Just you? What are you?"
Jiang Nan Fang retorted disdainfully.
Today she had burned, she had hit, and she had scolded.
Seeing the old woman thoroughly angered, Jiang Nan Fang finally released some of her pent-up frustration.
She went to enjoy a delicious Japanese meal, and around six in the evening, she took a taxi back to the hotel.
Unexpectedly, as she entered the hotel lobby with her bags, a strong arm suddenly hooked around her neck.
Instinctively thinking Mrs. Zhan had sent someone to fight her,
Jiang Nan Fang dropped her bags, grabbed the person’s arm, and executed a swift judo throw, "Bang!"
The person was thrown to the ground.
Then, with a quick turn, she crouched and slammed her knee heavily onto the person’s chest.
