Tang Tang paused for a moment, her tone growing serious. “But if you don’t behave sensibly, you should be able to imagine the consequences that the Lin family will face.”
Lin Zhiyan clenched her teeth, looking at her with anger and frustration.
Who did she think she was to be so arrogant?
Clearly, she was the one who had done wrong, so why did she have the audacity to pressure her like this?
But that’s the reality.
Their Lin family couldn’t compare to the Tang family, so they had to be at the mercy of the Tangs.
She was unhappy about it, unwilling to let Tang Tang easily have her way.
But…
She couldn’t play games with her father’s hard-earned assets.
Lin Zhiyan squeezed her palm fiercely, not entirely trusting her. “If I agree to your conditions, will you keep your promise and not harm my family?”
She didn’t really care about Tang’s investment. She only hoped that the Tang family wouldn’t cause trouble for the Lin family.
The company was doing well under her father’s management, and her father didn’t have grand ambitions to expand it.
As long as it provided for their family, they were content.
With foreign investment, it would only dilute my father’s managerial authority, making him more cautious and restricted.
Lin Zhiyan was very clear and intelligent.
Although her health prevented her from attending school and socializing normally, her diligent and dedicated self-study at home was no less than anyone else’s.
Tang Tang raised an eyebrow in triumph. “Of course, since you’ve agreed to my conditions, why would I have any reason to target you?”
There was no way she would let her off the hook!
And she wasn’t so kind-hearted as to genuinely help the Lin family.
She just wanted to take advantage of the situation to have the Tang family swallow up the Lin family.
After all, for a small family like theirs, they only needed a little push to be absorbed.
“I don’t trust you,” Lin Zhiyan said softly but with a serious tone.
“I can sign a contract with you. Would that make you trust me?” Tang Tang raised her hand, and one of the bodyguards standing beside her handed over a pre-printed contract.
Of course, the contract was legitimate, but whether it would be honored was another matter.
In this society, the strong were respected after all.
Lin Zhiyan took it and quickly reviewed it to ensure there were no traps. In order not to burden her family, she could only grit her teeth and sign the contract.
Just as she was about to find a pen and prepare to sign her name at the bottom of the contract, a clear and cold voice rang out, calmly saying:
“Zhiyan, put the pen down.”
Lin Zhiyan turned around in surprise.
Nan Yan was slowly entering the room.
Jiang Nai was following her, and as soon as they came in, she ran up to Lin Zhiyan.
She grabbed Lin Zhiyan’s hand and said angrily, “Sister Zhiyan, are you stupid?
Do you believe this wicked woman’s words?”
“Yanyan, I…” Lin Zhiyan felt flustered as if she had been caught in the act. “Didn’t I tell you that I’ve got everything under control?”
Nan Yan walked up to her, picked up the contract that Tang Tang had given Lin Zhiyan from the coffee table, and quickly scanned it.
Then, she raised an eyebrow and glanced at Tang Tang, who was trying to dominate the situation, with a cold sneer.
Right in front of her, Nan Yan tore the two contracts into shreds piece by piece.
Tang Tang was stunned by Nan Yan’s presence.
“Who are you?”
She was in the capital and naturally unaware of the situation in Jin City. But Nan Yan’s appearance and demeanor…
This was a level of awe that she hadn’t felt even from the top socialites in the capital.
Moreover, Nan Yan’s current gaze imposed a powerful sense of pressure on her, making her even careful about her breathing.
Nan Yan waved her hand, scattering the bits of shredded paper all over Tang Tang’s face. She spoke arrogantly and icily, with a touch of sarcasm, “The tiny Tang family, still trying to threaten my friend. Who gave you the courage?”
“You… you jerk!”
Tang Tang was initially scared and let out a scream, then she stood up, wanting to attack Nan Yan.
However, Nan Yan wasn’t just standing there, letting Tang Tang hit her.
Tang Tang was kicked by Nan Yan, fell back onto the couch, clutching her stomach in pain, hunched over, and screaming in agony.
As for the two bodyguards standing beside her, seeing their young miss being attacked, they couldn’t stand idly by and rushed forward, trying to deal with
Nan Yan.
Lin Zhiyan’s face turned pale, and she called for help in a panic.
She was afraid that Nan Yan would get hurt.
But Jiang Nai held her hand and reassured her, saying, “Sister Zhiyan, don’t worry. Sister is very capable. These two bodyguards can’t harm her.”
Having witnessed Nan Yan’s fierceness in action, Jiang Nai had great confidence in Nan Yan’s combat abilities.
As expected, Nan Yan easily brought down the two bodyguards, and it didn’t even take her a minute.
Lin Zhiyan watched in astonishment.
She had no idea that Nan Yan was this formidable!
Tang Tang was terrified by the scene before her.
She was a pampered little princess who had always been the one to bully others.
But now, when it was her turn, she finally experienced that fear and despair.
The pain in her lower abdomen was constantly stimulating her nerves, nearly pushing her to the brink of collapse.
Lin Zhiyan walked up to Nan Yan, reached out to tug on her clothes, and softly asked, “Yanyan, she’s the young lady of the Tang family. Are you sure this will be okay?”
This question jolted Tang Tang back to reality.
That’s right, she was the young lady of the Tang family!
She had overstepped her boundaries.
Suppressing the pain, she glared at Nan Yan with a fierce expression. “You dare to touch me! My father won’t let you off!”
“Not only will the Lin family be ruined, but you won’t have it easy either!” Tang Tang had no knowledge of Nan Yan’s identity.
But at most, she was just from a small and insignificant family in Jin City. Where did she get the audacity to offend the Tang family?
Nan Yan ignored Tang Tang and reached out to pat Lin Zhiyan on the shoulder. “Bring down your laptop.”
“Oh, alright.”
Lin Zhiyan hurried to get her laptop.
Even though she didn’t know what Nan Yan was planning, it seemed like following her instructions had become her instinct.
Before long, Lin Zhiyan returned with her laptop in her arms.
Nan Yan took it, opened the lid, and powered it on.
Then, her hands quickly danced across the keyboard.
There were surveillance cameras in the living room, and she intercepted the footage from when Tang Tang entered, turning it into a video. Along with the recording of the threatening phone call Tang Tang made to Lin Zhiyan yesterday, she uploaded them to Weibo.
Once again, it shot to the top of the trending topics.
Afterward, she created two more posts, each securing second and third place on the trending list.
The eye-catching word ‘Explosive’ immediately drew netizens’ attention.
In just a moment, the comments section exploded with outrage.
[“Oh my, this is so disgusting. How can this girl surnamed Tang have no shame at all! Threatening an ordinary girl on the phone yesterday wasn’t enough, and today she goes to the girl’s home to intimidate her. Being a rich family’s young miss sure makes you feel invincible!”]
[“What kind of family must she come from to raise such an arrogant and shameless daughter? First, she plagiarizes and appropriates someone else’s artwork, and now she’s threatening and intimidating the girl’s family. She has no real talent, yet she shamelessly steals the fruits of someone else’s labor. It’s truly eye -opening! ” ]
[“Yesterday’s trending topic and post suddenly disappeared, so it was the influence of capital behind it, right? Bullying someone without power or influence? Don’t be afraid, young lady, we support you!”]
