Lu Wanwan glanced around. Although there weren’t too many people here, there were still vehicles and pedestrians passing by on the road.
"Director Wei, please speak with respect," she stepped backward towards where more people were gathered and said deliberately, "and don’t come any closer, or I will call the police."
"Stop pretending," Wei Cheng sneered, his face revealing a ferocious expression, "Do you think you’re still some pure commodity? Who knows how many people you’ve been with. After so long, you want to go back to your ex-husband? Why degrade yourself? Shuman’s family may not be local tycoons in Manchester, but they are top-notch in our country. Do you think you still have any capital to compete with her?"
Lu Wanwan’s face was tight, she didn’t want to hear anything Wei Cheng had to say; she just wanted to get away from here.
"If you don’t back off, we’ll really meet at the police station," she threatened calmly, "There are so many reporters here, do you want to be publicly taken away? That would make for very interesting news tomorrow. Director Wei, since your new movie was canceled once, causing another scandal will only make your future path even more difficult."
She just wanted to remind him, urging him not to act rashly for the sake of his future.
In Lu Wanwan’s memory, other than being harassed by him, this director had not been involved in any major scandals.
But she didn’t know that he was already extremely resentful due to a project failure and completely blamed Gu Annan for it, and because these words were coming from her, it felt like she was mocking his incompetence.
Wei Cheng’s expression twisted, and he suddenly lunged forward, grabbing her.
"Hahaha, do you think things aren’t tough for me now? Do you think I still care about scandals? My reputation has already been completely destroyed; I’m at a dead end in this circle. Do you know why? All thanks to your ex-husband! A man with nothing to lose fears not the man with shoes. Ms. Lu, tell me, who should fear scandals more?"
Lu Wanwan didn’t have time to think about why this was related to Gu Annan; the moment Wei Cheng tightly grabbed her, her wrist hurt as if it were about to split.
She kicked him hard without hesitation, hitting him in his lower body.
Taking advantage of Wei Cheng doubling over in pain and swearing profusely, she broke into a run.
However, her entanglement with Wei Cheng was probably caught on camera by the journalists, and once exposed, it might stir up old feuds with the Gu Family.
Would Gu Annan still be indifferent this time?
Lu Wanwan didn’t have the mind to think so much. In a few steps, she reached the corner where a figure stepped out.
"What’s going on?" Gu Annan, seeing her frantic appearance, stretched out his arms to hold her.
His gaze suddenly turned fierce as he looked toward the man pursuing her, "It’s him again."
Wei Cheng stopped abruptly in his tracks when he saw who it was.
Anger surged in Gu Annan’s heart, particularly feeling Lu Wanwan shivering in his embrace.
He gently stroked her back, murmuring, "Wait for me a moment."
Lu Wanwan was still stunned, wondering why he had just said, "It’s him again."
Then she heard a cry of agony.
When she turned around, she saw he had already kicked Wei Cheng several meters away.
He then strode over quickly, lifted the man who was about one seventy meters tall from the ground with one hand, and drove punch after punch into his face.
Lu Wanwan was dazzled watching the scene, his movements exceptionally swift and decisive, without any hesitation.
Wei Cheng screamed as he was thrown to the ground, his fingers crushed under his shoe.
A cold voice came, word by word, "Which hand touched her?"
