Imagining the scene behind the other door, she was burning with anger. She was angry at that “unfaithful” man! But more angry at herself, why couldn’t her brain just not care about the man she was about to abandon?
Ah ah ah— she wanted to scream!
“Ah—” Did someone really shout?
After confirming the source of the voice, Zhi Wei was stunned and gasped. A man’s scream?
She was dazed for a long time, unable to comprehend – could a man make such a sound in bed? This kind of scream seemed unavoidable. If the part he was kicked wasn’t so fragile.
“Shang Jie, I taught you Taekwondo to defend yourself, not to end the Shang family line, okay?” Just a few inches away… Shang Peng’s body was slightly bent as he growled.
“I didn’t mean to… who told you to block me…” Shang Jie mumbled.
“Of course I’m blocking you. Look at how drunk you are?”
“I’m not drunk, I’m sober now, let me go!”
“No! You can go, but only if I send you home!”
“I don’t want to! If I go back, Dad will force me to marry those messy people!”
“Messy? The people Dad chooses shouldn’t be that bad!”
“If it’s not what I want, it’s wrong!” Shang Jie cut off her brother’s words.
“What you want?” Shang Peng was stunned, then smiled, “I know who you’re talking about, but that might be a bit difficult.”
“Nothing is impossible for those who are determined.”
“The problem is, the man you like has everything, except a heart.”
“Even so, I have to try! Giving up without effort would make me too useless, right?
Shang Peng looked at his sister’s determined expression, and the smile at the corner of his mouth began to spread. “You’re right, big brother supports you. Do you need my help?”
“Help?” Shang Jie glared and snorted with laughter. “Don’t think I don’t know that Mom and Dad are eager to marry me off, and it definitely has something to do with you!”
“I… well, how do I put this? Getting married early isn’t a bad thing. You’re always stuck in the lab, and as a woman, you should—”
“A woman is bothering you? Be careful, you might end up falling at a woman’s hands without even knowing how you died!”
“Huan, are you cursing your own brother?”
“I’m blessing all women worldwide! Forget it… I won’t argue with you anymore. We have different paths, so let’s each pursue our own goals.” Shang Jie spoke with a dismissive attitude and strode towards the door.
“You’re drunk, you can’t walk—”
“I’m telling you I’m sober now. Let go!”
“But I promised Mom and Dad to take you home. If you don’t obey, then I’ll have to—”
“You want to use force?”
Shang Peng shrugged, showing helplessness.
“Bring it on.” Shang Jie was unexpectedly excited, her apple-like cheeks turning even redder. “Great, I haven’t sparred with you for a long time. Let’s see who’s improved more!”
Was she treating this like a martial arts practice?
“Brother, here I come!” Shang Jie shouted softly, her long legs attacking without mercy.
Shang Peng nimbly dodged, but couldn’t move too far, at least maintaining enough space to prevent her from rushing out.
During their exchange, Shang Peng suddenly caught a glimpse of another figure—Tang Zhiwei, standing dumbfounded.
At the moment Shang Peng was distracted, Shang Jie seized the opportunity to dash out.
As he came to his senses and lunged forward, he shouted, “Won’t you help me?”
Before his words finished, a loud crash of shattering glass suddenly rang out.
“Huh?” What had he landed on? Something glinting and sparkling…
Shang Peng felt a sharp pain in his head, instantly seeing stars, his wide-open pupils maintaining consciousness for just a few seconds before closing.
She had indeed helped. Tang Zhiwei stared at the fallen, robust body, tightly gripping the broken bottle, her face pale. He wouldn’t die like this, would he? Zhiwei, looking ashen, approached the body to check for breath, but as soon as she moved, her wrist was seized by a force.
“You—” Zhiwei looked towards the source of the force, meeting a pair of vivid eyes.
“There are glass shards on the ground,” Shang Jie said, releasing her hand and walking out.
“Huan, wait,” Zhiwei called out. “He… he…”
“The person was hit by you.”
What? She was distancing herself so quickly? Zhiwei said unhappily, “I hit him, but I was trying to save you. You didn’t even say thank you and just walk away?”
“Oh, thanks then.” Shang Jie said and stepped out again.
“Hey!” Zhiwei quickly blocked her path. “What should we do about him now?”
“Whatever you want.”
“Whatever I want?” How could she be so heartless? Zhiwei rolled her eyes and deliberately said, “So can I drag him to the back mountain as fertilizer, or throw him into the sea to feed the fish?”
“Do what makes you happy. I have no objections.” Shang Jie couldn’t help but smile.
Not bad, she finally saw her brother had grown up and found a somewhat higher-level partner.
“How can you be so vicious? How do you manage it?” Zhiwei was stunned.
“You’re not bad yourself, not holding back,” Shang Jie glanced at the person on the ground, secretly amused. Brother, this time you really did fall at a woman’s hands.
Tonight in the bar, he told me this.”
Tonight? The latest intelligence showed that this man had not wavered in his intention to marry her?
She should have been frustrated that all her thoughts were in vain, but she discovered that she was surprisingly not opposed to this outcome… This left her bewildered.
“Why? What is… going on?” Zhiwei, with mixed emotions, could find no answers, whether regarding his decision or her own inexplicable emotional fluctuations.
Shanjie directly responded: “Because he said the wife he wants is different from others, his wife is essentially a bed partner, a long-term contracted bed partner, so good looks are naturally a prerequisite.”
Upon hearing this, Zhiwei’s muddled consciousness was instantly pierced by anger.
She would absolutely not be the contracted bed partner he wanted!
After Shanjie left, Zhiwei suddenly wondered what would happen when this wolf regained consciousness.
Quietly approaching his side, scrutinizing his incomparably handsome face, she clicked her tongue twice. If he weren’t so bad, perhaps she might have given him a chance, given how attractive his looks were. Unfortunately, for her, he was now nothing more than a deadly poison.
But what should she do now?
Call the police? Oh no, considering their respective statuses, such an incident would surely delight gossip paparazzi and anger the elders of both families.
Just wait for him to wake up?
“No! This is too dangerous.” Zhiwei decided to strike first.
After all, someone had said, do as you please, hadn’t they?
