But as Wen Nian pondered, she realized that the angrier she got, the more triumphant Jiang Chun would feel behind her back. How did she fall into this trap? After realizing this, she decided to lie down for a while before getting up, packing her bag, and riding her bike out.
From the entrance of the residential complex to the main road, she had to pass through a small alleyway as usual. Since it wasn’t rush hour, there were only a few pedestrians on the road. When Wen Nian was about to reach the exit of the alley, a motorcycle suddenly rushed out from the side, startling her, and she quickly applied the brakes.
The man on the motorcycle menacingly lifted an iron rod and approached Wen Nian. She turned around, wanting to run, but to her surprise, the road behind her was blocked by a car.
Several burly men wielding sticks and wrenches got out of the car. Wen Nian took a few steps back and leaned against the wall, scanning the five men surrounding her, each of them clearly well-built and skilled.
A bald, muscular man stepped forward and looked Wen Nian up and down. “Miss Wen, would you like to get in the car yourself, or should we invite you?”
Wen Nian asked directly, “Did Wei Lai send you?”
The muscular man didn’t give a direct answer. “You’ll find out once you get in the car, Miss Wen.”
Faced with the overwhelming odds of five strong men, Wen Nian had no other choice. Engaging in a direct confrontation with them would be difficult, and there was no need for it either.
Wen Nian calmly locked her bike to the side and got into the car herself.
The muscular man sneered as he observed the situation. “You claimed to be so formidable, warning me to be cautious. But look at you now, nothing special.” He waved his hand, and everyone immediately got into the car and headed to the predetermined location.
This game could be described as playing with open cards.
Wen Nian watched as the car arrived at an abandoned factory in the western suburbs. Once the car stopped, the muscular man pushed her shoulder. “Get in!”
Wen Nian stumbled for a moment, her lowered gaze flashing with a cold gleam. Then she obediently lowered her head and entered the factory.
Wei Lai and Jiang Ning were already waiting inside, and they smiled with satisfaction when they saw Wen Nian surrounded by a group of men.
Wei Lai’s arm was still in a cast, but it didn’t dampen her current good mood. “Wen Nian, you should resist quickly! These people can give you a good practice session!”
Jiang Ning stepped forward two steps and accused her, “You’re an audacious woman who doesn’t know her place! How dare you rely on your mediocre fighting skills to bully us? Well, be prepared to face the consequences!”
Faced with the blatant double standards displayed by the two, Wen Nian raised her gaze and looked at them, a hint of defiance on her face. “You were the ones who came looking for trouble first. I fought back to defend myself.”
Faced with the blatant double standards displayed by the two, Wen Nian raised her gaze and looked at them, a hint of defiance on her face. “You were the ones who came looking for trouble first. I fought back to defend myself.”
At this point, Wei Lai and Jiang Ning no longer pretended. They sneered and laughed. “People like you, the lower class, are meant to be played with, you know? You should just accept whatever we give you. If you dare to resist, there’s only one dead end for you! You can’t even recognize your own social status! What a pathetic creature!”
Wei Lai remembered the incident when they were delayed to gather evidence. She quickly said to the muscular man, “Quick, search her phone!”
Wen Nian was wearing a short-sleeved T-shirt and athletic pants today. The muscular man looked at her body with ill intentions, then gestured for his subordinates to search her backpack while he intended to personally search Wen Nian’s body.
Wen Nian evaded the muscular man’s hand by leaning away and said with a cold face, “I’ll do it myself!”
The muscular man sneered as he glanced at Wen Nian and muttered, “You’re so self-righteous now. When I have you pinned down later, you’ll show just how promiscuous you can be!”
Wen Nian furrowed her brows tightly at his words, her gaze sharp as she aimed it at Wei Lai and Jiang Ning. The two were frightened and took a step back while holding hands. Then they realized there were five burly men present, what were they afraid of!
Wei Lai puffed out her chest, pointing at Wen Nian with a show of false bravado. “What do you think you’re doing!”
Wen Nian withdrew her gaze, reached into her pocket, and jumped up and down a few times, but nothing fell out.
The only phone she had, which was in her backpack, was searched by the muscular man’s subordinates and handed over to Wei Lai.
Wei Lai took the phone, forcefully smashed it on the ground, and stomped on it several times until it was completely broken. She then spread her hands towards Wen Nian, wearing a smile on her face. “It doesn’t matter if you recorded anything earlier, now it’s all gone!”
Wen Nian, seeing the situation, deliberately said, “I’ve already transferred the original file of the last video elsewhere.”
Wei Lai covered her mouth and laughed softly. “That’s just something to placate a three-year-old. So what if there are two backup videos? Bring them out! I’m looking forward to showing you my methods!”
Jiang Ning chimed in, adding harsh words. “We’ve already deleted your video. Didn’t expect that, did you? Our resources and methods are beyond your imagination, you poor wretch.. Don’t think that we didn’t deal with you earlier because we were afraid of you!”
