Chapter 82: Chapter 82 Show Some Color

Suddenly, a few VIP guests arrived at the door.

The staff greeted them with enthusiasm, exercising utmost care.

"Sister Meng, if you ask me, with Junyan’s return this time, your days will be much easier. If that Jian Xi dares to provoke you again, just let him deal with her. Last time in the garage, she didn’t learn her lesson, that damned bitch..." fre.eweb novel\.c om

As she walked in, she came face to face with Jian Xi, who was clearly enjoying herself.

Xiang Yao’s brows furrowed tightly. She immediately turned to a nearby staff member. "Didn’t I say that today was for Sister Meng to relax? We’ve booked the whole place. How do you people manage things?"

She must have overheard what I just said. Xiang Yao felt a pang of fear and guilt.

Jian Xi, wrapped in a bath towel, stepped out. "Speaking ill of me and afraid I’d hear?"

What a petty creature; her thoughts are written all over her face.

Wan Yu laughed heartily. "Look at yourself. What makes you think you can just book the whole place? Aren’t you aware that this project is an investment of the Jian Family?"

The staff member nodded. "I apologize. The exclusive booking you requested was only for the third floor. You are not authorized to book the entire fifth floor, which is reserved for VIPs."

Jiang Qimeng’s expression instantly darkened, and she shot Xiang Yao a sharp glance.

Xiang Yao hung her head in apology. "Sister Meng, I didn’t know this was invested in by the Jian Family."

Damn it!

How could I have forgotten? Most of these high-end, upscale tourist resorts are Jian Group enterprises.

"Miss Jian, we’re bound to run into each other. Surely you wouldn’t be so petty over a place to relax?" Jiang Qimeng stepped forward to mediate.

"You’re the ones gossiping behind people’s backs. Don’t try to act all high and mighty as if we’re the ones picking a fight," Wan Yu retorted, not about to let her off easy. She was just short of pointing at Jiang Qimeng’s nose and cursing, "Jiang Qimeng, I truly admire your knack for manipulating people to be your pawns. With so many fools being used by you, you must be so pleased with yourself you probably wake up laughing from your dreams, right?"

Jian Xi couldn’t help but laugh. Wan Yu’s mouth was often like a nuclear weapon.

It could absolutely demolish the other party.

Just like now, Jiang Qimeng’s pretty and dignified facade was crumbling.

Xiang Yao, having suffered countless losses before, directly dragged Jiang Qimeng away, preparing to beat a hasty retreat.

Unexpectedly, the door opened again, and Si Junyan entered from outside.

"It’s quite lively in here."

When Xiang Yao saw who had arrived, she immediately complained, "It’s them! They said Sister Meng has no shame, and they even talked about kicking us out."

"Second Young Master Si, you can’t just stand by and do nothing!"

Jiang Qimeng hurriedly pleaded with him, "Junyan, you’ve finally returned from the Northwest. You know how much hardship you endured. You mustn’t act recklessly out of loyalty again; it’s not worth it for my sake."

Her words ignited the fury simmering deep within Si Junyan.

He had been banished from Beijing and dispatched to the remote Northwest all because of Jian Xi.

And Jiang Qimeng, whom he cherished so dearly, was definitely not someone who could be bullied by just anyone.

"Jiang Qimeng, you really know how to stir up trouble! You’re more than shameless; you’re utterly despicable and unscrupulous!" Wan Yu seethed.

SLAP!

Nobody expected Si Junyan to brutally strike Wan Yu across the face.

"Si Junyan!" Jian Xi was furious.

How dare he hit my best friend right in front of me! That’s even more unbearable than if he’d hit me myself.

Before Jian Xi could react, Wan Yu lunged at him like a little madwoman, wildly scratching and biting.

Si Junyan, being a man, couldn’t very well punch and kick a woman. He could only yell, "Someone, come quick! Pull this mad dog off me! Get her off me!"

Jiang Qimeng was terrified.

She’d never seen such a crazed woman.

Jian Xi went over to help Wan Yu, seizing the opportunity to land a few kicks on Si Junyan.

By the time security arrived, Si Junyan was a complete mess. His clothes were torn, and his tie was wrapped around his neck, nearly strangling him. A vivid ligature mark was visible on his neck, his face bore numerous bloody scratches, and his clothes were smeared with a considerable amount of nosebleed.

"Ah! Wan Yu, I’m going to kill you!"

Si Junyan was enraged. Jiang Qimeng’s lips curled into a smirk as she waited for the good show to unfold.

Just as he raised his fist, two security guards immediately restrained him.

SMACK!

Jian Xi seized the moment and fiercely slapped him back.

The crisp sound of the slap echoed throughout the entire hot spring inn.

Jiang Qimeng was shocked. free\we\bnov(e)(l).com

Xiang Yao was shocked.

Even Si Junyan, the man himself, was shocked.

Wan Yu shouted, "Mighty, domineering, and cool!"

Indeed, that was her good sister. Wan Yu felt the pent-up frustration she had been holding back finally dissipate.

Jian Xi pointed at him and warned, "You better remember this: you’re on Jian Family territory. How dare you lay a finger on me and my friends? Did your trip to the Northwest short-circuit your brain?!"

She clapped her hands lightly. "That slap was for the disrespect you just showed Wan Yu. Si Junyan, I don’t care what underhanded tricks you used to return to Beijing so quickly. But remember this: I, Jian Xi, won’t let anyone who dares to provoke me off easily. We’ll see about that."

Jian Xi, holding Wan Yu’s hand, pushed past Jiang Qimeng, who was watching the commotion, and they walked away with a swagger.

Without looking back, Jian Xi instructed the security guards, "Throw these people out. Without my permission, they are not allowed to appear within any business areas owned by the Jian Family in the future."

The security guard responded, "Yes!"

"Jian Xi! This isn’t over!" Si Junyan trembled with rage.

Jiang Qimeng threw herself at him. "Junyan, are you alright? How could she do this to you? You’re a man, to be humiliated like this..."

Seeing the woman he loved witness his most humiliating moment, Si Junyan’s hatred intensified.

I will kill Jian Xi with my own hands! I definitely will!

His eyes were a vengeful crimson, as if they could spout blood.

「...」

After leaving, Wan Yu felt a lingering fear.

"It’s a good thing we were at this hot spring inn, which is under the Jian Group. Otherwise, we would have been in serious trouble today."

Jian Xi nodded. "Starting tomorrow, we all need to learn mixed martial arts. It’s not just for self-defense; it also made me realize the physical disparity between men and women. To protect herself, a woman can’t just rely on passion; she needs some real skills."

"Agreed."

Wan Yu was still worried. "Si Junyan won’t let us off, will he? Especially after that slap you gave him right in front of Jiang Qimeng. He’ll probably hate you to the bone. Honestly, you didn’t need to make such a bitter enemy of him just for me."

"Even without you, it would still be a vendetta. If he doesn’t seek revenge on me, my life would lose a lot of its fun."

Jian Xi’s red lips curled into a meaningful smile.

Wan Yu couldn’t shake the feeling that, at this moment, Jian Xi was a woman with many untold stories.

Of course, Jian Xi couldn’t reveal that Si Junyan was already a pawn in her revenge plan.

Today was just a small warm-up, a little payback for last time!

"Does it hurt?" Jian Xi turned and gently touched Wan Yu’s face.

Wan Yu shook her head. "This slap I received was well worth it, considering all the injuries he got and how it vented my anger!"

"You silly girl. In the future, don’t provoke that kind of desperate madman again. Let me handle her."

"Okay, okay, okay," Wan Yu agreed verbally. But in her heart, she silently swore she would find a better way to protect her best friend.

Jian Xi’s phone rang. It was a call from the hospital.

"Miss Jian, you made an appointment with us for a consultation due to prolonged vomiting. When would you like to come in?" the nurse on the other end asked.
