"President Tang, why did you …" Before the man could finish, he was sent flying with a kick by Tang Shaofeng, lying on the ground with his limbs spread out.
Seeing Xia Wan's untidy clothes, Tang Shaofeng's eyes turned cold, he took off his jacket and placed it on Xia Wan, then continued to teach the man who attempted to violate Xia Wan a lesson.
Riding on his opponent and waving his fists with all his might, Tang Shaofeng seemed to have lost his mind.
"President Tang, if you have something to say, please say it … "AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!" Stop hitting President Tang, I was wrong … "Ahhh!" The man screamed from Tang Shaofeng's beating, his voice resonating in the room, from the door to the corridor.
Not long later, Li Na and Lu Li arrived at the private room at the same time. Lu Li saw that Xia Wan was lying on the sofa with unfocused eyes, and was startled, but it was as if Li Na had seen through everything with a glance, and anxiously tried to pull Tang Shaofeng away.
"President, don't hit him anymore. If this continues, it will cause people to lose their lives!" Li Na tried her best to persuade her, and completely ignored her.
Lu Li walked to Xia Wan's side, his brows knitted tightly, and softly asked: "Xia Wan, are you alright?"
Xia Wan shook her head with difficulty, "I'm fine."
Lu Li's expression relaxed, as he glared hatefully at the man who was being ruthlessly lectured by Tang Shaofeng, with no trace of sympathy in his eyes.
"Director Lu, what are you still standing there for? If the CEO continues to beat him up like this, it'll cause more deaths! " Li Na looked at Lu Li with a grumbling gaze, and when she inadvertently glanced at Xia Wan, a cold smile filled with unwillingness surfaced at the corner of her mouth.
Hearing that, Lu Li pulled the raging Tang Shaofeng away.
At this moment, the man on the ground was badly battered.
Tang Shaofeng loosened his tie impatiently and instructed Lu Li: "Tell the security guards to throw him out. In the future, no matter which branch you're in, as long as he dares to step in, I'll compensate him for breaking my leg."
"Yes sir!"
When Lu Li and Li Na were dealing with the aftermath, Tang Shaofeng had already left the private room with Xia Wan in his arms.
Observing how Tang Shaofeng cared so much about Xia Wan, Lu Li and Li Na's eyes became very gloomy.
Bringing Xia Wan into the clubhouse's office, the anger on Tang Shaofeng's face did not fade, "Can't you stay by my side? You're happy that someone took advantage of you, aren't you! "
Xia Wan had never been scolded by Tang Shaofeng, nor had she ever seen the other party get so angry.
She bit her lips and replied in a low voice, "I'm sorry …"
He was clearly a person who wasn't drunk, yet he became like this after just drinking a cocktail today. Xia Wan didn't know what was going on as she felt wronged and had no reason to argue against it.
Tang Shaofeng had saved her, and indeed, he had the qualifications to scold her.
But even so, Xia Wan still felt wronged, she still felt that something was amiss.
Seeing that Xia Wan rarely revealed this guilty expression, Tang Shaofeng knew that Xia Wan was wrong. His expression softened, and asked with frustration in his eyes: "How much wine did you drink in the end? If I didn't pay attention, would you make yourself like this? Xia Wan, do you know that I am not a god? I will not be able to arrive in time when you are in danger all the time. "
Noticing the look of fear on Tang Shaofeng's face, Xia Wan's guilt deepened.
She pursed her lips, feeling puzzled herself. "I only had a cocktail. I know it's work time, so I can't afford to make a mistake, but …"
Xia Wan thought that being wrong was being wrong, so she did not say anymore and secretly memorized the lesson this time.
"Just a cocktail?" Tang Shaofeng raised his eyebrows suspiciously, he had already noticed that something was amiss.
Xia Wan nodded, and with an unperturbed expression, she replied: "I really only drank one cup, and after drinking it, I became drowsy, and then, someone carried me into that private room."
Hearing that, Tang Shaofeng's face turned cold, and he tried to guess who had secretly harmed Xia Wan.
As the clubhouse paid attention to protecting the privacy of its customers, it did not install any monitoring facilities. If one wanted to find out who messed with Xia Wan's wine and who sent Xia Wan into the man's room just now, it would be extremely difficult.
Coming back to his senses, Tang Shaofeng gazed into Xia Wan's eyes were no longer critical, "Are there any places that you feel uncomfortable with?"
Xia Wan shook her head, then licked her lips in embarrassment: "Thirsty."
Tang Shaofeng laughed bitterly out of helplessness. He got up and poured Xia Wan a cup of water, and then held her in her arms and slowly fed her some water.
Allowing Xia Wan to wake up from her stupor in the office, Tang Shaofeng walked towards the counter in the clubhouse alone.
As soon as he left the office, the warmth and patience on his face was gone.
With a probing gaze, he looked straight at the bartender who was busy working at the counter. Tang Shaofeng questioned him coldly: "You know my clubhouse doesn't allow anything to be added to the wine, right?"
"CEO, I didn't mix anything in wine without permission, I really didn't! The staff regulations before entering the clubhouse were clearly written on the taboo, how could I knowingly commit such a crime? President, who did you hear me add something to the wine? This is definitely slander! "
Noticing the clarity in the bartender's eyes, despite his respect, he did not feel the slightest bit guilty.
Tang Shaofeng was confused, but continued to ask: "My secretary drank a cocktail from you, and then she turned out to be strange. She is not a person who cannot drink, what is going on?"
The bartender was flabbergasted, and then he scratched his head helplessly, "How could that be? Cocktail? Cocktails use the lowest amounts of alcohol as their base. CEO, I really didn't do anything! "I don't even know who your secretary is. Please believe me!"
After staring at the bartender for a long time, Tang Shaofeng finally let go of the other party's interrogation, and warned with a stern face: "From now on, keep your own job, lest you become the scapegoat."
The bartender was surprised for a moment, then suddenly enlightened. He nodded his head and guaranteed with a face full of resentment, "Ok CEO, I'll remember it!"
Unable to catch the person who hid behind the scenes to deal with Xia Wan, Tang Shaofeng was both annoyed and confused. He did not know who Xia Wan offended.
However, what happened this time had given him a warning, causing him to be even more afraid of letting Xia Wan leave his line of sight.
Returning to the office, Tang Shaofeng apologetically said that the clubhouse was a mess and did not manage to find out who was behind all of this.
At this time, Xia Wan had already recovered her strength. Although she appeared to nod her head indifferently, she had already guessed who was the one plotting against her behind the scenes.
From her death to being saved, Li Na's entire performance was extremely calm, to the point that it was abnormal.
If they said that this matter had nothing to do with Li Na, even if they beat her to death, she would not believe it.
After experiencing this, Xia Wan had buried her resentment towards Li Na. The other party's methods were actually so vicious, and could not be forgiven by her.
She secretly warned herself to be vigilant, and vowed that if Li Na challenged her bottom line again, she would definitely not show mercy.
Because just the meeting place where Xia Wan was at would be delayed for around two hours. Considering that Xia Wan was frightened, Tang Shaofeng cancelled his trip and directly sent him home to rest.
The supervisors around could see that the relationship between Xia Wan and Tang Shaofeng was not simple, but they still pretended to be confused, as they did not dare to say that Xia Wan had special treatment.
Returning home to take a bath, and after taking a short nap, the haze in Xia Wan's heart finally dissipated.
When they were close to dinner, she received a message from Lin Yi. The message was: Sister Wan, I met your old acquaintance today, he seems to be on good terms with you, and knows your current address.
The message confused Xia Wan. The only people who knew that she had moved back to her old residence were her grandmother, Xia Xue and her daughter, as well as Tang Shaofeng's parents and Lu Yaoyao.
Out of curiosity, Xia Wan quickly replied her with a text message: Male or female? I only have you with me! These two good friends, how can there be any old acquaintances?
Not long after, Lin Yi's reply was sent over: 'Woman, it seems like she's a musician, but the ones she mentioned to her friends were all Tang Shaofeng, so she didn't mention you.
After reading this, Xia Wan became even more confused: "Girl, is this for music?" Familiar with Tang Shaofeng?
Xia Wan racked her brain, and finally remembered that there was someone that matched up to these characteristics.
Selina, the student of Xiao Hui that she had only seen once.
However, even if Selina was close to her, there was no need for Xiao Hui to tell her and Tang Shaofeng their addresses, right? Could it be that Xiao Hui still had not given up and wanted to forcefully make the two of them into a pair?
Xia Wan's mind was in a mess, the more she thought about it, the more confused she became.
Suddenly, without any warning, she remembered the day she miscarried, when Tang Shaofeng came back late, and said that he was with Xiao Hui.
With furrowed brows, Xia Wan walked straight to Tang Shaofeng, "Tang Shaofeng, on the day of my miscarriage, you were not only with your mother, right?"
Looking up, Tang Shaofeng paused for a few seconds, and then smiled as if nothing had happened: "What's wrong?"
"Tang Shaofeng, don't lie to me, is Selina also there that day?" Xia Wan stared at Tang Shaofeng without moving, with extreme penetrative power.
Putting down the book, Tang Shaofeng frankly replied: "Yes, that day my mother asked me to accompany her because Selina's parents invited her to a banquet. She was afraid that it would be too embarrassing to attend by herself."
Hearing this, not only did Xia Wan's expression not relax, it became even more serious.
As he slumped on the sofa, Xia Wan stood still and asked softly: "Your mom still hasn't given up on making you marry Selina, right? Furthermore, Selina is still courting you, even if she knows that you are already married. "
Seeing how empty Xia Wan's eyes were, Tang Shaofeng did not want to hide it, so he suppressed his voice and replied: "Yes."
Xia Wan's eyelids shook as she let out a cold laugh.
If her deduction was not wrong, the person who killed her child was actually Selina, who seemed to be the furthest away from the dispute.
"Xia Wan, I have never given her any hope. It's just that my mom has been messing with me all this time, don't think too much." Tang Shaofeng said with a sincere face and a sincere tone.
Xia Wan stupidly stood up and turned her back to Tang Shaofeng, "I know."
Seeing that Xia Wan was about to leave, Tang Shaofeng anxiously stood up, but heard Xia Wan say: "I want to be alone for a while, don't follow me."
Helpless, Tang Shaofeng could only watch Xia Wan as he went upstairs. Seeing Xia Wan in a daze, he felt both happy and worried. The reason why Xia Wan felt sad was obviously because she cared about his performance. What he was worried about was that Xia Wan would let his imagination run wild and treat him as a man who wasn't single-minded.
After locking himself up in her bedroom for a long time, Xia Wan was even more certain of her guess.
Selina did not want to give up on Tang Shaofeng. If Xiao Hui did not recognize her as her daughter-in-law, then Selina would remove her, this obstacle that was "not enough to cause trouble".
Since he was going to shake her position, the first thing he had to do was remove the hidden danger, and that was to remove the baby that she had already lost.
With scarlet eyes, Xia Wan couldn't help but recall the night when she was afraid of her despair. It was all thanks to defeating Selina, and she wanted nothing more than to burn her opponent's bones and scatter his ashes.
She had never interacted with Selina before, but she had done this to her for Tang Shaofeng's sake, and she had never known this until now.
"Selina, oh Selina, you sure have hidden yourself quite deeply. Such a vicious and noble daughter, I wonder if you are still a qualified candidate to be Xiao Hui's daughter-in-law …" Xia Wan, whose eyes were deep, could not help but mutter the thoughts in her heart. She, who had a face full of hatred, was determined to take revenge for her lost child.
