The man understood immediately, stepped forward, and grabbed Tang Yige’s arm. 𝒻𝑟ℯℯ𝑤𝑒𝑏𝑛𝘰𝓋𝑒𝓁.𝒸𝑜𝘮

"Let me go!" Tang Yige turned her head angrily to glare at the man, and in the next moment, red liquid streamed down from her eyes.

The man sneered contemptuously, pulling Tang Yige’s arm and dragging her in front of Fang Jingyi.

Fang Jingyi stared at Tang Yige, "Now, will you leave here obediently with your people, or should I have them thrown out?!"

"Fang Jingyi, do you think you are the Empress Dowager of Z City? Do you do whatever you want?!" Tang Yige’s eyes blazed as she stared at Fang Jingyi.

"Haha, I wouldn’t dare say otherwise, but in Z City, if I want to control someone, it’s easy! I do whatever I want, what will you do about it?"

Fang Jingyi arrogantly replied with two "what will you do" to Tang Yige!

"Aren’t you afraid that even Brother won’t recognize you?!"

"He will eventually understand that everything I do is for his own good!" Fang Jingyi squinted and said.

"For Brother’s good? Is this how you treat his own flesh and blood? Fang Jingyi, you keep saying it’s for Brother’s good, but every single thing you do hurts her! You’ve read so many books, claiming to be noble and elegant. Is barging into someone else’s home and acting like a tyrant noble and elegant? Fang Jingyi, how are you different from a bully? I dare you!"

Tang Yige saw Fang Jingyi raising her hand angrily, gritting her teeth in anger, "Fang Jingyi, if this slap comes down, unless I, Tang Yige, don’t survive today, I will never let it go! You bully Mo Chen, bully Momo, and now bully my child! I’m telling you, Fang Jingyi, I, Tang Yige, am not someone weak and easy to bully, nor am I a naive saintly mother, I will not hold back just because of your age! If you slap me today, I will definitely pay you back double! You don’t believe me, then go ahead and slap!"

"You, you, you, you! Alright, alright! Fine, I won’t slap you."

Fang Jingyi really didn’t dare to slap, but was so angry from Tang Yige’s shouting that she trembled all over, panting as she said to the man holding Tang Yige, "Throw them all out, throw them out!"

Fang Jingyi repeated "throw them out" twice, showing her intense anger!

The man, doing his job for money, obeyed, grabbing Tang Yige with one hand and pulling the trembling Zhang Lan with the other, dragging both out.

"Let go of me, let go of me!"

Tang Yige went mad with anger from Fang Jingyi’s oppressive forcefulness, struggling desperately under the man’s grip.

Although the man was muscular, holding two people, Tang Yige’s vigorous struggle made it difficult for him.

Grinding his teeth, the man simply released Fang Jingyi first, reached to grab Tang Yige’s hair, and fiercely dragged her toward the door.

"Ah... Yige..."

Zhang Lan, frightened, screamed and rushed forward, disregarding everything, hugged the man’s arm and bit it hard.

"Uh."

The man winced in pain, a malicious glint appeared in his eyes, he lifted his leg and kicked Zhang Lan in the stomach.

"Ugh..."

The man, in his anger, didn’t hold back his strength.

Zhang Lan was kicked far away, sitting on the ground, clutching her stomach, her face contorted in pain, unable to get up.

Tang Yige saw this, and her eyes were filled with rage, "I’ll fight you to the death!"

Tang Yige roared, disregarding the grip on her hair, kicking and punching the man.

"You foul woman! I’ll friggin’ kill you!"

The man shouted angrily, yanking Tang Yige’s hair harder, raising his hand to slap her twice.

Smack, smack—

"Mom."

"Ah!"

"You bastard, dare to bite me!"

"...No, don’t, don’t!"

Bang—

After this loud noise.

The entire apartment fell into a deathly silence.

Tang Yige stared dumbfoundedly at the blood seeping on the floor, at Rong Rui lying in a pool of blood, his small bloodied hands desperately trying to grip the floor...

"Get away, get away, get away, ah!!!"

Tang Yige really lost her mind, frantically struggling, nearly impossible for the man to control.

"Get away! Ah!!"

The man saw the burst of blood from Tang Yige’s eyes, gasped, his grip involuntarily loosening.

Tang Yige broke free, rushing towards Rong Rui.

But after two steps forward, she stumbled and fell onto the floor.

Thud!

Another dull noise.

Tang Yige only felt her kneecap shattered in pain.

But this pain was nothing compared to the ache in her heart.

Tang Yige quickly crawled to Rong Rui’s side and scooped him up tightly in her arms.

"Little Rui, Little Rui... my dear baby..."

Tang Yige’s fingertips trembled as she gingerly touched the bleeding wound on Rong Rui’s head, not daring to let her hand fall.

"Little Gege, I’m not crying, I’m not crying..."

Rong Rui clutched tightly to Tang Yige’s sleeve, speaking weakly.

"Ah..."

Tang Yige cried loudly, "I’m sorry, I’m sorry baby, I’m sorry..."

"Little Gege, I’m so sleepy..."

"No, don’t sleep Little Rui! No!"

Tang Yige rubbed Rong Rui’s little face, shaking her head desperately, "No, look at mommy, don’t fall asleep... look at mommy."

"Little Gege..."

"Yige, Yige, quickly get to the hospital, the hospital..."

Zhang Lan cried on the ground, speaking between sobs.

Tang Yige’s eyes flickered fiercely, she quickly wiped her eyes with her hand, picked up Rong Rui, and with shaking legs, stood up and walked towards the door.

Fang Jingyi stood pale on the spot.

She didn’t want this...

She didn’t want things to turn out this way...

Fang Jingyi stared blankly at the men around, how could they be so vicious, hit so hard... she just, just wanted them to help her drive them away, she didn’t mean for... this to happen!

Fang Jingyi’s fingertips twitch erratically, her eyes shifting vacantly to Zhang Lan who still lay on the ground unable to get up, her face grew even paler, eyes wide, taking deep breaths.

...

That morning, in Shengge Law Firm, Rong Sinan discussed a case with Geng Yi, feeling inexplicably restless and unable to concentrate.

By ten-thirty in the morning, Rong Sinan hurriedly left the law firm and drove madly towards Jinxiu Huadu.

In less than twenty minutes.

Rong Sinan arrived at Jinxiu Huadu.

But as soon as he parked the car and got out,

he witnessed a scene that turned his blood cold.

Tang Yige ran out of the building barefoot, disheveled, frantically holding a blood-covered Rong Rui.

Rong Sinan’s body trembled hard, and his legs staggered back as if unable to hold him.

Tang Yige didn’t even notice Rong Sinan and rushed directly towards her own car.

Rong Sinan’s handsome face turned pale, he quickly stepped forward and took Rong Rui from Tang Yige.

"Ah..."

Tang Yige, like a startled bird, felt her hands empty all of a sudden, taking her heart with it, she screamed as she tried to snatch Rong Rui back from Rong Sinan.

Seeing Tang Yige like this, Rong Sinan’s eyes were almost overflowing with a bright red.

He held Rong Rui in one arm and grabbed Tang Yige’s hand tightly with the other, striding rapidly towards the Bentley.

Tang Yige, stumbling and hesitant, glanced at Rong Sinan’s hand holding hers, as if only just realizing it was him, took a deep breath and quickly followed behind him.

Fang Jingyi came out of the apartment building just as Rong Sinan drove the car away at high speed right in front of her.

"Si Nan..."

Fang Jingyi murmured in shock, standing at the door for several minutes before regaining her senses. Ignoring the men she had brought, she walked to the car, opened the door, and got in.

The driver, who had just seen Tang Yige frantically hold a blood-soaked child and come out, was completely stunned.

Fang Jingyi caught her breath and said, "Follow Sinan."

The driver exhaled, steadied his nerves, started the car, and sped after him.

The several men coming out of the apartment building exchanged glances.

One of the men smirked sinisterly, fished a phone out of his pocket, and dialed a number.

When the call connected, the man put the phone to his ear, "It’s done, the money."

"I’ll transfer it to you immediately. Remember, once you get the money, leave Z City with your people, and never come back to Z City again!"

Listening to the cold female voice on the phone, the man squinted, "We’re already living that outlaw life, we won’t risk our necks. After we get the money, we’ll catch a train out of Z City."

"Good to see you understand!"

The woman said and then hung up the phone.

The man snorted, eyes narrowing, glanced back at the apartment building, and swaggered away with his men in tow.
