Chapter 151: Here, I Am the Law!
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
A mischievous young man was playfully lifting Lu Chen off the ground and teasingly roughhousing with him. He even declared in a loud voice, “Fang Yuan is under my protection. If 1 catch wind of you speaking ill of her again, you won’t be seeing the sun tomorrow!”
With that statement, Lu Chen received another punch and was tossed onto a pile of broken glass.
Several onlookers observed the incident and were bewildered. Why was Lu Chen, the supposed scion of Fengcheng City’s wealthiest individual, being subjected to such a beating? And based on what he had just said, it seemed he had spoken unfavorably about someone?
“Lu Chen, are you alright?” Fang Jiayi rushed forward to help him up. Her eyes landed on the shards of glass embedded in Lu Chen’s arm, and she shot an angry glare at Qiao Bei. “Sir, how did my dear friend Lu Chen offend you? Why did you resort to violence? Isn’t there any rule of law here?”
“In this place, I am the law!” Qiao Bei retorted haughtily. “Not satisfied? Sue me, then!”
The club had recently opened, and the owner’s identity was still a mystery, but hearing his words made it seem like he had influential support, particularly evident in his arrogance and his high-end attire.
“What’s happening here?” Tang Nan emerged from a private room after a quick restroom break, appearing somewhat surprised by the scene unfolding before him.
Fang Jiayi cast a reproachful gaze at Fang Yuan, who stood behind Qiao Bei. She gritted her teeth and exclaimed, “Sister, aren’t you going to say anything? Lu Chen is acting out of concern for your well-being. He fears you may be heading down the wrong path and is trying to guide you. It’s one thing if you’re stubborn, but don’t you feel any guilt when you see Lu Chen injured because of you?”
Fang Yuan paid them no mind and turned to those gathered around her, saying, “Let’s go.”
“Wait!” Fang Jiayi was determined not to lose face in front of her peers. She assisted Lu Chen to his feet and boldly announced, “Dare you disclose how many older men you’ve served?”
The students behind her were taken aback. This stunning girl had actually been involved with older men, and it seemed like more than one. What a shock!
Fang Yuan raised her head slowly and with an air of indifference, proclaimed, “Which of your eyes witnessed me involved with an older man? My dear, do not make baseless accusations.”
Her demeanor exuded a regal, unassailable aura.
“What? You dare to do it but won’t admit it? How many luxury cars have you ridden in? You even accompanied an older man to a hotel. Is that the case?”
Fang Yuan:”???” Accompanied an older man to a hotel? The last time she visited a hotel was probably to assist Grandpa Qian in selecting a birthday gift for her grandmother.
With this in mind, her grandmother’s birthday was approaching. She began contemplating what to prepare.
“What? No response, huh?” Fang Jiayi believed she was correct and that Fang Yuan had nothing to say. She sneered and commented, “It’s rare that these investors haven’t caught you in the act…”
“You infuriating woman!” Tang Nan was seething. She rolled up her sleeves. “With my temper, none of you can stop me today!” With that, she lunged at Fang Jiayi and grabbed her hair bun. Lu Chen attempted to intervene, but Tang Nan pushed him away, causing him to fall onto the glass once more.
“You can’t even control your girlfriend, and you expect me to assist you?” Tang Nan held Fang Jiayi’s hair with one hand and delivered a slap with the other.
“You insolent wretch! Who are you calling impure? Say it again!”
“Who are you?” Lu Chen, who was struggling to get up amid the broken glass, said angrily, “Don’t go too far. I’ll call the police!”
“Fine, call the police! If you win, 1’11 kneel down and apologize to you!” Tang Nan continued to slap Fang Jiayi. “Did I go too far? 1 admit it! I gave you the chance to bully my Yuanyuan! Who do you think you are? How dare you stand in front of Yuanyuan? 1’11 teach you a lesson today. Stay away from my Yuanyuan in the future!”
Fang Jiayi was assaulted by Tang Nan and thrown into the shattered glass.
The other students were in shock. No one dared to step in to help. This girl was too intimidating…
“I’m declaring this today! Anyone who dares to mistreat Yuanyuan in the future will be going against the Tang family! If you cross our Tang family, 1’11 beat you every time 1 encounter you!”
Tang Nan’s gaze shifted to the others. “Anyone have a problem with that? Look for me at the Tang Corporation!”
Everyone in attendance was left in shock. Tang Nan’s fearless disclosure of her identity made it abundantly clear that she was unafraid of any repercussions.
Certain students who were acquainted with the Tang Corporation nervously withdrew into themselves, aware of its status as a prominent financial conglomerate. Could she be the one they referred to as the family’s cherished princess?
“I am Tang Nan, and you better remember that!” Tang Nan turned to Fang Yuan with a smile and added, “Out of consideration for you, I’ve chosen to be lenient..”
