"As a dignified group CEO, shouldn't you feel honored to share a room with me? If you keep spouting nonsense, be careful..."
Jiang Nanfang quickly opened her eyes, her gaze sharp and wary.
This man was stronger than her and more ruthless.
In his presence, Jiang Nanfang hated that she was just a weak woman!
She couldn't stay here any longer; it was dangerous!
She turned off the shower, ripped off the bath towel in front of her.
"You can shower now. Since you're so eager to take what's mine, you can sleep in the bathroom tonight. I've locked the door, so don't even think about entering my room."
Zhan Beijue blocked the bathroom door, looking utterly shameless.
"You wouldn't dare. Try locking it. I'll have the deputy general bring a spare key overnight."
"You..."
"Since you keep saying I'm shameless, I'll show you just how shameless I can be."
Jiang Nanfang didn't listen to him.
Taking advantage of her short stature, she lowered her head and squeezed out from under his arm.
She dashed back to her room, locked the door, found her pajamas to change into, and then began her skincare routine.
After finishing her face, she lay down on the bed. Just then, Zhan Beijue came to push the door.
Had she really locked the door?
He took out his phone and deliberately stood by the door, calling Vice President Gao.
"Vice President Gao."
Calling him so late? Vice President Gao quickly asked what was wrong.
"The apartment where Jiang Nanfang is currently living, you arranged it, right? I..."
Inside the room, Jiang Nanfang heard him making such a brazen call to Vice President Gao. She rushed out.
Vice President Gao thought he needed her for something and was about to tell her to call him back when Jiang Nanfang opened the door.
Not wanting anyone to know about her trivial matters with Zhan Beijue, she made a shushing gesture at him.
Threat delivered. Since the door was open, Zhan Beijue had nothing more to say.
"Nothing, just a small matter I needed to discuss with her. But it's late, so I'll leave it at that. We'll talk tomorrow."
He hung up the phone.
Jiang Nanfang, furious, put her hands on her hips. "Zhan, don't think that just because I took the initiative once, I'll always be the one to do so!"
"The first two times were special circumstances, and I'm not holding them against you. But today, no, from now on, we go our separate ways. Don't even think about it. I'm not someone you can bully!"
She spoke indignantly, but he looked at her as if she were an idiot.
After speaking, he pushed her aside and sauntered over to the bed, sitting down.
"Even if you wanted to have something else with me, I wouldn't agree."
"Can't you think about anything proper for once in your life?"
"I'm sleeping in the bed tonight. You can sleep on the sofa."
Jiang Nanfang's face flushed crimson.
So, that wasn't what he meant?
Then... he was just playing tricks on her!
"I'm not repeating myself. What are you standing there for?"
"I'll give you one minute to get ready. If you're not prepared with what you need in one minute, don't blame me for making you sleep on the bare sofa."
"You..."
He raised his wrist, checking the time.
"Don't waste time. You have 58 seconds left."
Jiang Nanfang believed he would do as he said and genuinely make her sleep on the sofa without a blanket. She quickly scrambled to grab a quilt.
"It's just a shabby apartment. It doesn't cost much. Look at you, acting so high and mighty. I'll move out tomorrow!"
"Very well. Don't rush to sleep yet. Go out and wash my clothes. I didn't bring any changes of clothes."
Kicking a woman out to sleep on the sofa and then asking her to wash his clothes?
Who did he think he was?
Before Jiang Nanfang could finish her harsh words, Zhan Beijue stopped her.
"Don't forget, you conned me out of 500,000 yuan a few days ago. Washing clothes isn't asking too much, is it?"
"Who conned you out of 500,000 yuan? Didn't I buy you a set of clothes?"
"Jiang Nanfang, don't play games with me. Do you believe if you make the first move, I'll make the fifteenth?"
"With your precedent, the situation with the child three months from now is really hard to say."
Always bringing up the child, saying it's hard to say. Besides threatening her with the child, what else could he do?
Jiang Nanfang was choked by him again, so she had to change tactics to retort.
"A man with no manners and no class like you doesn't deserve true love in his lifetime."
"Thank you for your blessing. That's exactly what I want. What's so great about women? Especially a bad one like you."
"..."
Jiang Nanfang, hugging the quilt, went to the sofa in the living room. As she made the bed, she cursed Zhan Beijue.
It was really late. After making the bed, she prepared to sleep.
He, like a debt collector, opened the door and walked out again.
"Aren't you going to wash the clothes yet? Talking nicely to you doesn't work, does it?"
Jiang Nanfang really wanted to jump up and kick him twice.
But looking at his firm, muscular physique.
Forget it.
It was the same old story: why did she have to be so brainless and sleep with him in the first place?
Karma!
She kicked her slippers and walked towards the bathroom. Zhan Beijue lightly kicked her on the behind.
"Keep the noise down. Don't wake the children. Clearly, you've never taken care of children; you lack even this basic common sense."
"I haven't taken care of children? Then..."
Forget it, forget it. She wouldn't argue with him.
If she really woke the children up and they saw them arguing in the middle of the night, they would become unhappy again.
Jiang Nanfang, enduring humiliation, went to wash his clothes. Back on the sofa, she fell asleep.
The two children in the bed opened their eyes. Hearing that the house had finally quieted down.
They tiptoed out of bed.
Dad refused to help Mom with Grandpa's affairs, so they couldn't just do nothing.
They had seen clearly how he had bullied Mom that day.
They had to help Mom get revenge!
Soon, two little ones, carrying backpacks, were stealthily appearing in front of the Jiang family's villa.
After being harassed by the workers' families and reporters yesterday, the entrance to the Jiang family villa was a mess.
The floor tiles and railings were covered in colorful paint, and a pungent smell wafted from afar.
"It seems someone has already come to teach him a lesson. The house is such a mess. He deserves it."
"Brother, do we still need to go in?"
"Others are others, and we are us. Why shouldn't we go?"
Saying that, he grabbed his sister's hand, and the two of them squeezed through the gaps in the railings.
The two of them, crouching low with their little backs, moved forward while discussing.
"Brother, what are you planning to do later?"
"Do you remember that episode of Journey to the West where the king and queen's hair was shaved off while they slept?"
"You want to shave that bad woman's hair?"
"Not only shave her hair, but I'll also shave her eyebrows. Mom said that woman is too wicked. I want to make her an ugly monster, an old witch."
"Then I will too. I brought a lot of paintbrushes. I'll draw two giant turtles on her face."
"What about Grandpa?"
"Since they are husband and wife, they should be exactly the same. We'll turn both of them into giant turtles."
Due to the strong paint smell, the living room windows were open for ventilation.
The two little ones easily climbed in through the window.
In the room, the family was drowning their sorrows in alcohol. The couple were drunk and lay like logs, sleeping like pigs.
One child shaved hair, and the other painted. Soon, they turned both into a mess.
"Remember the person who argued with Mom at the amusement park that day? It seemed to be their son. Should we make their whole family of three match?"
"Sure. Let's go find where he is."
After dealing with Jiang Zhenjun and his wife, the two children wandered into other rooms upstairs.
Soon, they found Jiang Xingchen, who was also sleeping like a pig.
His hair was left on the back of his head, his scalp was shaved into a bald patch, and his face was smeared with paint. The two children were satisfied and high-fived.
"Let's go. We're done. We're going home."
