"When you are framing someone, you must remember to investigate all the matters thoroughly before you do so."
"As long as your timelines don't match up, your framing will be completely useless."
Xu Ruowei and Xia Wanqing's faces changed.
Nangong Jin, however, said with a sneer, "Also, the people you chose are truly ugly. If An Nuan really wanted to find someone, would she choose bald men, men with beer bellies, or short men? What were you thinking, choosing such hideous people?"
"Even if An Nuan were to find someone, she would find someone more handsome than me."
"I believe An Nuan's taste wouldn't be that bad." Nangong Jin's words made Xu Ruowei and Xia Wanqing unable to sit still. They had never expected Nangong Jin to say such things. This was completely different from what they had imagined.
With a soft "pfft," An Nuan laughed, and she laughed heartily.
Looking at Xu Ruowei and Xia Wanqing's pale faces and disbelieving eyes, it was truly a rare sight.
She even wondered if there was more good drama to come. Right now, her greatest hope was that the two of them could hold on.
After all, the real show was yet to come, and without the two of them, things wouldn't be as fun.
"Oh, and the times you provided for your evidence? I was with An Nuan at those times."
"Also, my An Nuan has high standards. She wouldn't even want to look at the unsightly people in your video."
An Nuan listened, her face full of smiles. She had to admit, Nangong Jin was truly wonderful. For her matters, he was always so thoughtful. Even for a small thing, he would think for her and speak up for her.
Upon hearing these words, Xu Ruowei and Xia Wanqing were struck as if by lightning, their faces extremely unsightly.
They were even somewhat unwilling. Why was An Nuan so lucky? Why did she always manage to turn misfortune into fortune?
She secretly glanced at An Nuan with resentment. Why was her life so good? Why did Nangong Jin always appear whenever she was in danger?
Why was a man as high-quality as Nangong Jin so devoted to An Nuan?
Xu Ruowei and Xia Wanqing exchanged glances, their eyes filled with calculation and plotting.
They were thinking that their current predicament was very unfavorable to them, and they absolutely had to find a way to handle this matter properly.
Just as the two of them were contemplating how to deal with the current dilemma, the appearance of someone made them completely cast aside their fear. Their faces were filled with triumphant smiles.
An Nuan, you have Nangong Jin, and I have my Shen Xizhou. Besides, Xia Wanqing also has Ji Wenyun. Thus, it's two against one. An Nuan, you have no chance of winning.
This time, I will not let go of such an important opportunity.
When Xu Ruowei saw Shen Xizhou appear, she was no longer arrogant. Instead, she put on a pitiable appearance, her eyes filled with tears. With a tearful voice, she said to Shen Xizhou, "Xizhou, I... I didn't do anything, but An Nuan and Mr. Nangong insisted on stopping me from leaving."
"Xizhou, I was truly terrified. Mr. Nangong's demeanor was quite frightening."
"Mr. Nangong even said that for An Nuan's sake, he would deal with me harshly."
Xu Ruowei's face was covered in tears, and her voice was choked with sobs. She trembled all over as she cried.
"However, even though they treated me this way, I never thought of hating them. I believe they must have some misunderstanding about me."
"Xizhou, take me away from here. I believe that with time, their misunderstanding of me will naturally be resolved."
"Xizhou, let's go."
Shen Xizhou, however, looked at the person before him with confusion, as if he were pondering something important.
Seeing that Shen Xizhou was slow to act, Xu Ruowei became a little anxious.
Moreover, more and more people were gathering. She felt a little scared.
But now? She had said what she needed to say and done what she needed to do.
Yet Shen Xizhou showed no intention of leaving. This was a huge joke to her.
The people around were staring at her, observing Shen Xizhou's attitude towards her.
Xu Ruowei's face instantly flushed red. The people nearby were pointing and gossiping, and she could hear them clearly.
Suddenly, Xu Ruowei seemed to go mad. Her gaze fell on An Nuan, and she said coldly, "An Nuan, you caused all of this, you jinx!"
"If it weren't for you, all these things wouldn't have happened. It's all because of you that such things occurred."
"An Nuan, you should just die."
"I was originally a noble young lady, but because of you, I've become someone despised by everyone. It's because you wanted to snatch Shen Xizhou away from me that so many troubles have arisen."
"An Nuan, I've already said, if you want Shen Xizhou, I can give him to you."
"You really don't need to do all these things."
"I have already paid the price in blood. Please, can you let me go?"
An Nuan let out a cold scoff and quietly listened to Xu Ruowei's eloquent words.
One had to admit, Xu Ruowei's words were captivating.
The surrounding crowd instantly gasped. They knew that originally Shen Xizhou was with An Nuan. It was Xu Ruowei who forcefully snatched Shen Xizhou away.
The gazes of the people around towards Xu Ruowei were filled with contempt.
However, Xu Ruowei, at this moment, did not realize how many people were mocking her words. She, on the other hand, felt that everything she had done was so touching. She believed that the people around would surely stand on her side and speak for her.
But she had forgotten that it was she who had snatched Shen Xizhou away from An Nuan in the first place.
Many people knew about this incident back then, but no one dared to discuss it, because Shen Xizhou did not allow anyone to mention it. If anyone did, that person would face misfortune.
But now, Xu Ruowei herself had uttered it. They had seen foolish people before, but such extreme foolishness was a first for them.
Shen Xizhou frowned, appearing displeased.
This was the matter he was most unwilling to face, yet she easily brought it up in front of so many people.
Xu Ruowei, who was about to continue speaking, noticed that the gazes of the people around her had changed. At this moment, her heart began to tremble.
She quickly covered her mouth, her heart filled with fear. These were things that Shen Xizhou had always been sensitive about. Normally, no one dared to mention them in front of Shen Xizhou. But what had she done now? Bringing these matters up in front of so many people was undoubtedly tearing Shen Xizhou's reputation to shreds.
Her hands, resting by her sides, clenched tightly, and her entire body trembled.
Her face instantly turned pale. At this moment, she looked up and met An Nuan's eyes, smiling sweetly, appearing to be in a very good mood.
"Xu Ruowei, you fought tooth and nail to snatch Shen Xizhou from me, and now you say you want to give him back to me. How insincere can you be?"
"Xu Ruowei, stop pretending in front of me. You're already reluctant in your heart. You just said that casually in front of so many people."
"Tell me, if I agreed, would you have the urge to kill me?" An Nuan said these words directly to her without any hesitation.
