Xia Tian patted her belly, stroked the watermelon-like belly, and then said casually, “It’s just like what you see. What do you want me to explain?”
Looking at Xia Tian’s content look, Ji Nuan was sure that unlike in the previous life, this was indeed the crystallization of love. She was relieved.
Now it was not the time to ask about this matter. Ji Nuan withdrew her gaze and looked again at the two men. “Now, if you have any questions, just ask me. Vice-CEO Xia has been helping me run the company in Hai City these years. Now she is near the delivery date. Even if you want to make trouble, you don’t have to pick on a pregnant woman about to give birth. If she has any problem because of you, can you afford it?”
The two men didn’t care at all whether they would scare a pregnant woman or not, but since Ji Nuan said so, they didn’t want to get themselves into trouble. They said ferociously, “Don’t fucking threaten us with pregnancy. Since you dare to snatch our land, give us a proper explanation, or become our enemy. Are you sure you want to become Heng Cheng’s enemy from now on? If you really have the guts, our boss won’t mind…”
Xia Tian frowned and was about to refute them, when Ji Nuan stopped her and shielded her behind, saying, “Let President Xia go upstairs.”
“Ji Nuan.” Xia Tian looked at her and whispered to her, “Heng Cheng’s boss is not easy to deal with. You’ve just returned to China, so you don’t know how many new domestic real estate companies popped out in the past three years. There are many in Hai City alone. And Heng Cheng’s boss is a hooligan.”
“I see. Just go upstairs.” Ji Nuan gave her a reassuring look.
But how could Xia Tian be reassured? Although Ji Nuan had gone through many twists and turns abroad in recent years, the commercial struggles in Hai City, a prosperous metropolis in China, were no simpler than what she had been through abroad. She had just come back and probably didn’t know the complex relationship among the companies in Hai City.
Xia Tian was about to speak, but Ji Nuan had come back, who was obviously the boss. Besides, Xia Tian was not in the right condition for such an occasion indeed. Therefore, without another word, several staff members dragged her out.
“Hey, don’t… don’t drag me…”
“Shit, I’m not your boss as soon as Ji Nuan came back, am I? How dare you not obey my order? I need to talk to her. Don’t pull me…”
Once Xia Tian’s voice faded away, Ji Nuan said quietly, “If you want to talk to me, go to my office.”
The two men immediately looked at her tender face with lascivious smiles and raised their hands to touch it, saying, “Go to your office? We and you, alone?”
Their tone was sickening, but Ji Nuan remained expressionless. At the moment that that man’s hand was about to touch her face, his wrist was suddenly grabbed before he could see clearly what happened, and then Ji Nuan gently pinched it, and his wrist clicked. With a little more force, Ji Nuan would be able to dislocate his wrist.
The two men looked at her in shock. Ji Nuan clutched one of the men’s wrist, looked at him whose face turned pale in pain, and said casually with a faint smile, “Behave yourselves in public. After all, Heng Cheng is a famous company in Hai City. If you do something disgusting and ruin your company’s image, I won’t take any responsibility.”
Not only the two tall and strong men but also the staff and security guards around her didn’t expect that Ji Nuan, who looked so slender and delicate, could react so agilely, and it seemed that she knew some martial arts.
“What a surprise. You’re pretty good.” The man she grabbed by the wrist was about to pull his hand out, but the moment he moved his hand, he felt such a piercing pain that his entire arm was unable to exert any strength.
The other man saw this and was about to help his partner lest they lost face in front of this woman when Ji Nuan said coldly, “If you want him to lose his arm, you can have a try.”
The two men both froze.
When Xiao Ba, who had just rushed downstairs, saw this scene, her eyelid twitched. She rushed behind Ji Nuan and shouted, “Don’t look down upon women. Our boss has learned martial arts from an international fighting champion. You only have brute force, but our boss knows the human body’s acupoints and vital parts. Believe it or not, if you dare continue to make a disturbance here, she will take the bones out of both your arms!”
As Xiao Ba spoke, Ji Nuan clutched his wrist a bit harder. Although she only exerted a minimal force, it was enough to make the man feel as if the whole muscle of his arm was about to break.
The two men seemed to be frightened by Xiao Ba’s words, but they still glared at Ji Nuan ferociously. “You, you, let go of me!”
“Do you still want to fight?” Ji Nuan asked them coldly.
It wasn’t until the man broke out in a cold sweat from the pain in his arm that he finally surrendered and said reluctantly, “Let go of me. Let’s talk!”
Ji Nuan released him.
Seeing the woman in red dress release the hand so effortlessly, the two men believed what Xiao Ba said just now.
Could this woman really take the bones out of their arms?
As Ji Nuan turned coldly to walk out of the crowd, Xiao Ba quietly winked at her. Ji Nuan gave her a silent glance. Only the two of them knew what her glance meant.
She was certainly not that Kung Fu master that Xiao Ba had just described!
In her last year in London, Feng Ling went to England and stayed with her for the whole year.
During that year, Ji Nuan was once robbed by several foreigners when she went back home after working overtime in the company. Although she didn’t suffer any injuries, she planned to learn some self-defense skills from that day on.
Since then, Feng Ling taught her Kung Fu every day. At first, Feng Ling taught her some simple self-defense techniques, but later she found that she was willing to learn and had a good understanding of martial arts, so she designed a special set of self-defense skills for her who hadn’t received any physical training before.
She didn’t need to use too much strength and just needed to remember the most vulnerable parts of the human body and every crack and weak point of the human skeleton, combined with the basic self-defense techniques she taught her.
After practicing the self-defense art for a long time, now Ji Nuan could completely protect herself.
