[Pointing.jpg, looks like Jiang Ning didn’t hit hard enough, didn’t manage to knock some sense into him]
Jiang Ning glanced at Mu Mingxuan’s right arm with a look that was half-smiling, half-mocking.
Having been able to dislocate Mu Mingxuan’s right arm with her bare hands, Jiang Ning certainly knew how to pop it back into place too.
But to just fix Mu Mingxuan’s arm like that, truly left one feeling rather pissed...
After hearing Mu Mingxuan attempt to threaten her with legal action, Jiang Ning, who already didn’t feel like resetting his arm, was even less inclined to entertain the thought.
"Sure," Jiang Ning nodded, her tone very casual, "I’ll wait."
Seeing Jiang Ning’s unconcerned demeanor, Mu Mingxuan’s expression darkened as he stared at her intently, "You’re really not going to help me put my arm back in place?"
He and Huo Ziheng were good friends, and Mu Mingxuan had heard from Huo Ziheng that Jiang Ning seemed to have some medical skills, especially in massage, where she was extremely skilled.
If any of the Huo family members felt unwell, they would ask Jiang Ning to press their acupoints, and then they would feel much better the next day. For this reason, Huo Ziheng had said more than once that Jiang Ning was unfit to be anything more than a maid and couldn’t hold a candle to the delicate Huo Miao.
Mu Mingxuan had no doubt that Jiang Ning had deliberately dislocated his arm just now!
Jiang Ning lazily lifted her eyes, her tone cold, "If you’re injured, go find a doctor. Why are you looking for me? Want me to break your other arm too?"
Upon hearing this, Mu Mingxuan, fearing that Jiang Ning might actually do such a thing, instinctively took several steps back as if retreating from a fierce beast.
[Hahaha, what an awesome comeback from Jiang Ning, she’s so bold and assertive! If she says she won’t help, she won’t! If you keep nagging, she’ll break the other arm too!]
[Right! I would have been scared by Mu Mingxuan’s words if I were her.]
[Stay calm, this is virtual reality, Jiang Ning hasn’t actually caused Mu Mingxuan any physical harm, and it’s Mu Mingxuan’s own fault for starting the trouble! No matter how you look at it, Jiang Ning is in the right!]
After a busy morning, and after teaching a few jerks a lesson, it was already time for lunch.
Jiang Ning’s gaze swept across the group, "Are you guys still fighting?"
Not a single person in the room spoke.
All of Mu Mingxuan’s men were down.
Ling Bo and Yuan Wei were holding their injuries, bowing their heads in shame and frustration.
Jiang Ning continued, "If you’re not fighting, then I win. Where’s the food? Bring it all out."
At her words, Mu Mingxuan and people like Yuan Wei shuddered.
None of them, four grown men, had anticipated not just losing, but losing so miserably!
They had never once thought about giving away the food!
Huo Miao hid behind Mu Mingxuan, quietly reaching out and clutching his arm tightly.
While feeling anxious inside, they tried to maintain a calm facade, bearing Jiang Ning’s menacing look, and remained tacitly silent.
Jiang Ning was almost amused by their shameless demeanor, "What’s this? Grown men, can’t even keep your word and now planning to weasel out of it?"
Mu Mingxuan, with his dislocated arm, sat on the sofa to one side.
They weren’t stupid; they understood the situation. With food, there was life; without it, they would be walking a path to death.
When they were by the beach, they had been hungry and full by turns. If it wasn’t for the desperate craving for food, they wouldn’t have hoarded food this morning.
To ask them to surrender the food was basically asking for their lives!
Yuan Wei and Ling Bo felt the same, accept the loss of a fight, but giving up the food was absolutely out of the question.
No matter what Jiang Ning said, in the end, it was just the few of them here; losing face was better than losing life!
The screen was filled with angry chatter:
[I’m tired of calling them ’shameless.’]
[They locked up the food! Ahhh, what do we do if they stubbornly refuse to hand it over! Isn’t Jiang Ning fighting in vain? This is infuriating!!!]
[Simple, just beat them up again. I bet they’ll hand over the food then.]
"Jiang Ning, I know where the food is..." Jian Tiantian suddenly spoke up.
Mu Mingxuan and the others immediately lifted their heads, glaring at Jian Tiantian with a particularly ferocious look.
Jian Tiantian, frightened, swallowed hard, her face filled with hesitation.
"It’s okay, go on," Jiang Ning said, dispelling her concerns, "where is the food?"
Jian Tiantian whispered softly, "I’m not sure if it’s there... but this morning when I was in my room, I heard noises from the next room like someone was moving things..."
