At this moment, she even began to blame Shen Shuhui. Why didn't she act immediately upon catching An Nuan?
Why did she talk so much nonsense? Why did she give An Nuan a chance to live?
At this point, Xu Ruowei's eyes were filled with hatred for An Nuan. If only An Nuan had disappeared, how good would that be?
If that day had been successful, how good would that have been?
Xu Ruowei's face suddenly turned pale because Shen Xizhou had been looking at An Nuan without saying a word.
She even wondered if he believed Nangong Jin's words.
Then what about her? Was she the clown? Would she become a laughingstock?
Why, why, why did all the bad things happen to her?
Why was An Nuan's life so good? Why did Nangong Jin protect her so much?
Just as Xu Ruowei didn't know what to do, what happened next surprised her greatly.
Shen Xizhou let out a cold laugh and said icily, "Nangong Jin, I don't believe a single word you say."
"I witnessed those things with my own eyes. I only believe what I see and hear myself."
"I won't believe anyone's words."
"Besides, you are someone close to An Nuan. Do you think I would believe what you say?"
"Shen Xizhou." Nangong Jin looked at Shen Xizhou, feeling that this man was beyond redemption. It was no wonder Xu Ruowei could be so unscrupulous in harming An Nuan without any fear.
With Shen Xizhou's unwavering protection, Xu Ruowei naturally had the right to be so unrestrained.
So, when he wasn't by An Nuan's side, this was how they treated her.
Now, with him standing by her side, they dared to be so reckless. If he were absent, how much more would she be humiliated?
He dared not dwell on those scenes.
"What's wrong? Did I hit a nerve? Do you have nothing to retort?"
Shen Xizhou's voice was as cold as ice, "An Nuan, if Nangong Jin were no longer by your side, wouldn't another man appear very soon?"
"After all, the men who appear by your side are all different."
"You are truly remarkable. Different men, yet each one stands up for you, completely believing what you say."
"Oh, and those men even lost their lives for you."
"Perhaps those men died without knowing that the person they protected would have another man by her side after their death."
"Thinking about it, those men are truly pathetic."
"Shen Xizhou, shut up."
"My not refuting you doesn't mean your words are true. It's just that I find arguing with you a waste of my energy."
"I feel I don't need to waste time with a constantly barking 'mad dog'."
"It's just that I've always been yielding, while you've always been aggressive."
"Shen Xizhou, you are going too far."
Just as Nangong Jin was about to rush forward, An Nuan looked at him and pulled him, whispering in his ear, "Nangong Jin, we just secured the collaboration today. If we fight here, the partners will see it."
"In that case, our hard-won collaboration would be ruined just like that."
"Nangong Jin, don't fight here."
Hearing An Nuan's pleading voice, Nangong Jin felt heartbroken. An Nuan was enduring everything for his sake. Such a good An Nuan, why did Shen Xizhou treat her like this? Why did he say such things about her?
"An Nuan, today I must make Shen Xizhou realize how much he missed you over the years, and how cruel his actions towards you were."
"You are the most innocent one."
An Nuan shook her head and said, "Nangong Jin, don't do it."
"No matter how Shen Xizhou misunderstands me or thinks of me, I won't be sad or hurt."
"In my eyes, Shen Xizhou has nothing to do with me anymore."
"I only want to live my own life now; I don't want to bother with anything else."
Seeing Nangong Jin waver, An Nuan continued, "Haven't you considered that Shen Xizhou might have intentionally said these words here?"
"The Shen Corporation also wanted this collaboration but we took it. Therefore, Shen Xizhou must be resentful."
"Nangong Jin, don't fall into their trap."
Nangong Jin looked at An Nuan and said firmly, "For you, if the collaboration is lost, so be it. I don't care."
An Nuan smiled, a hint of happiness in her smile, "Thank you, Nangong Jin, for being willing to do so much for me."
"But, it's really not necessary."
"If we really fight, then we'll be playing right into his hands."
"I don't want them to be happy."
"I just want to see their crestfallen faces when they don't get the collaboration."
Nangong Jin met An Nuan's pleading gaze and finally chose to let go, but he felt that this was too much of an injustice to An Nuan.
But An Nuan said she wasn't wronged at all.
Shen Xizhou's brows furrowed. He watched An Nuan whisper something in Nangong Jin's ear, the two leaning together, looking very intimate. He had to admit, he was jealous.
How dare An Nuan be so intimate with Nangong Jin in front of him?
Then, without him around, how would they interact? Would they be even more intimate?
Thinking of this, Shen Xizhou's expression grew even more unpleasant.
Xu Ruowei also noticed the change in Shen Xizhou's gaze as he looked at An Nuan.
She knew that An Nuan still had a significant impact on Shen Xizhou.
She was unwilling to stand by and do nothing.
She tightly gripped Shen Xizhou's hand, her voice laced with a hint of fear, "Xizhou, perhaps An Nuan and Nangong Jin are truly in love. Look, their hands are clasped together."
"If they weren't truly in love, they wouldn't be like this."
Upon hearing this, Shen Xizhou's expression grew even more displeased.
He had seen it just now and didn't want to bring it up. But when Xu Ruowei mentioned it again, he felt restless.
"Let's go," An Nuan whispered in Nangong Jin's ear.
Nangong Jin nodded and said gently, "Okay, whatever Nuan Nuan says. I'll listen obediently."
"By the way, An Nuan, do you really not care about Shen Xizhou anymore? Is he really no longer in your heart?"
Nangong Jin knew very well that this was not the time to say these things, but he still asked.
An Nuan did not answer, her gaze falling on Shen Xizhou.
"Mr. Shen and Miss Xu, do you intend to stay here? If so, don't blame me for revealing what Miss Xu's mother did to me later."
"Coincidentally, there are many reporters here. I imagine Miss Xu's family will be famous again tomorrow."
An Nuan pretended to ponder, then said, "I think Mr. Shen will spend a large sum to suppress all the news."
"Well, if Mr. Shen has too much money to burn, then I'll start taking action."
"I didn't expect Mr. Shen to have such peculiar tastes. Back then, I was truly blind, how could I not have seen it?"
