Chapter 49

“Ah… Murderer!” Jiang Shuwan screamed as she crawled to Zhong Qianqian’s side. She held the unconscious Zhong Qianqian in her arms. Jiang Shuwan felt so much pain for her that she was unable to utter another word.

“Now you know what happens when I beat someone up. I didn’t even use that much force. Make sure to discipline your daughter. If there is a next time, I can’t guarantee that she will wake up without any side effects.”

Jiang Shuwan looked at Chi Yang fearfully. There was an aura of ice-cold murderous intent surrounding him. Jiang Shuwan was finding it difficult to even breathe.

“She should be beaten!”

Zhong Kuijun, who was standing by the side, suddenly voiced out. He took Chi Yang’s side without a moment’s wait.

It might have looked like Chi Yang had used a lot of force which resulted in that really loud bang, but Zhong Kuijun knew very well from his time in the military base that Chi Yang had just given Zhong Qianqian a small lesson on account of him and Zhong Nuannuan.

Based on Chi Yang’s character and temper, there was no guarantee that Zhong Qianqian would wake up in one piece, just like he had mentioned. Zhong Kuijun had previously thought that Zhong Qianqian would need to pay with her life or be left hanging by a thread.

Her simply passing out from a light beating can be considered as one of the best outcomes possible.

Zhong Kuijun looked at Zhong Nuannuan with gratefulness in his eyes.

Zhong Nuannuan was one of the reasons that Zhong Qianqian was able to get out of this alive. If Zhong Nuannuan did not wipe Chi Yang’s hands clean with a towel, the situation might turn out…

Zhong Kuijun did not dare to imagine what would happen.

“Somebody… Somebody help…!” Jiang Shuwan screamed. Aunty Zhao and the butler, who were both eavesdropping on the fight not too far away, rushed into the room.

Zhong Kuijun saw them come in and quickly covered Zhong Qianqian with a towel.

“What are you still standing there for? Go get her an ambulance now!”

Jiang Shuwan no longer dared to argue with Chi Yang. He had really scared her just now.

Jiang Shuwan trodded carefully. She could only look toward Zhong Nuannuan. “Look what has become of your sister. Are you satisfied now?”

“Yes, I am.”

Chi Yang felt more in love with her when he saw her answering the question like an obedient child with a wide smile on her face.

Why was his Nuannuan so adorable?

Zhong Kuijun looked on and turned toward Jiang Shuwan, roaring at her, “What does this have anything to do with Nuannuan? This is obviously your wrongdoing after influencing your daughter. Don’t you dare tell me that you had no idea Zhong Qianqian would barge into Chi Yang’s room! Jiang Shuwan, get this through your head. Chi Yang is Nuannuan’s fiance and Nuannuan is your daughter! Don’t you turn things upside down! Zhong Qianqian deserves that beating. Believe it or not, I’ll beat you up myself if you still dare to blame Nuannuan for this!”

Jiang Shuwan’s tears fell. “Okay, okay, okay! It’s my fault. It’s all my fault. Are you happy now?!”

When the ambulance arrived, Jiang Shuwan insisted on accompanying Zhong Qianqian to the hospital. Zhong Kuijun apologized to Chi Yang as he had to follow them as well.

Chi Yang was in a good mood at the thought of everyone in the house going to the hospital, leaving him and Nuannuan alone. He did not expect Jiang Shuwan to insist on dragging Zhong Nuannuan along. She claimed that Zhong Kuijun was a man, after all. If Zhong Qianqian needed any help, only Zhong Nuannuan and Jiang Shuwan could help out.

Zhong Nuannuan had no choice. She could not reject Jiang Shuwan under the circumstances as it would create a bad name for herself. In the end, only Chi Yang was left in the Zhong family home.

After one and a half hours, poor Ning Wenhao was summoned once more to the Zhong family home from the military base. He came to pick up his big boss before driving off together.
