Chapter 729: Defending Her Man to the Death
“Young Miss!” Xiangyi walked over. After hearing Nuannuan’s words, he could not help but interrupt her.
Lady Manli’s status was noble. If Nuannuan continued to slander her, she would offend the royal family of A Country and it would not be easy to deal with her.
Hearing a familiar voice, Shi Nuannuan turned around. As expected, she saw Xiangyi standing in front of her. Her eyes could not help but light up. “Xiangyi!”
Her attention had successfully been diverted. Xiangyi looked at her and did not speak again. The purpose of calling out to her was to interrupt her frivolous treatment of Miss Manli.
However, the moment he appeared, Manli opened her mouth. “Yes, since Mr. Shi is taken, I think…” She deliberately dragged out her last syllable as she looked at Xiangyi’s cold face.
Shi Nuannuan frowned and turned to look at Manli.
“His assistant is not bad either. Although his skin color is not as white as his, he seems to be more robust. His skills must be extraordinary too, right?” As she spoke, Manli had already stepped in front of Xiangyi.
Seeing her pair of soul-stirring eyes staring at Xiangyi, Shi Nuannuan’s jealousy overflowed!
“Hey, what’s the meaning of that look?!”
She stretched out her hand and directly pulled Manli away from Xiangyi!
In the face of love, she did not care about Manli’s identity. She would defend her man to the death!
Although Xiangyi had not yet become her man, she had already tacitly decided so in her heart!
Manli staggered and almost fell down from the force of the pull and the instability of her heels. Fortunately, Zhong Shenghao, who was walking over, took the opportunity to help her up, thus avoiding a disaster.
“Nuannuan, stop messing around!” Although Shi Yuting doted on his sister, if he allowed her to continue messing around, he was afraid that Manli would get hurt again. He could not help but warn her in a lowered voice!
Looking at her brother, Shi Nuannuan was not convinced. “I’m not messing around!”
She was defending her man! How was she messing around?
But as she met his fierce gaze, Shi Nuannuan lowered her head and did not dare to say any more as her cherry lips pouted in dissatisfaction!
She really could not understand why her brother and Xiangyi were helping this Manli. Was it because she was a member of the royal family of A Country?
Tsk, the person who dared to snatch her man away was just a pile of sh*t in her eyes!
Shi Yuting shifted his gaze away from Nuannuan. He searched the hall once more, but he still did not see Zuo Weiyi.
“Have you seen your sister-in-law?”
Hearing this, Shi Nuannuan raised her head and looked around the hall once, but she did not see her sister-in-law either.
Strange, she had been standing just over there watching them dance. Where did she go in such a short time?
“She was still standing there before, I don’t know where she went,” she replied, only to find that her mother was also gone. “Mommy isn’t here either, maybe she’s with sister-in-law.”
Hearing her words, Shi Yuting felt a little relieved, but an inexplicable sense of unease surfaced in his heart.
“Right, Your Excellency.”
At this moment, Xiangyi remembered about Jing Xinlei’s escape from prison.
“Before I came here, I saw this.”
He took out his phone and flipped to the news that was broadcasted earlier.
Yuting took the phone that he handed over. When he saw the content, Shi Yuting’s eyes turned cold, and his heart was suddenly struck by something.
Jing Xinlei actually escaped from prison? How did she escape from the first prison?!
“What?” Shi Nuannuan was curious and leaned her head over as well.
