Chen Jiang tore his hand away and slapped her.
“Behave.”
He really had no interest in such a promiscuous, wanton woman.
Zhang Shuxian stared at Chen Jiang in disbelief.
‘This guy…’
‘He actually hit me?’
Her eyes filled with disbelief and indignation.
She had always been supremely confident in her own charms.
Never mind others—even Master Zhou’s underlings were constantly drooling over her.
If she so much as crooked a finger, those men would swarm her like flies.
This young man had practically touched her all over.
Normally, he should have been on the verge of losing control.
‘How could he possibly resist?’
She felt humiliated.
Chen Jiang opened his eyes, and several silver needles appeared in his hand.
He plunged them in, and Zhang Shuxian was instantly immobilized, her slender body frozen in place.
Then, Chen Jiang quickly finished applying the cream to her body and covered her with a thin blanket.
“In five minutes, you’ll see the results, and you’ll be able to move again.”
Zhang Shuxian was indignant.
“A stunning beauty is right in front of you, and this is how you treat me?”
Chen Jiang couldn’t be bothered to respond.
‘A woman like her might be beautiful, but she’s poison.’
‘He didn’t dare get involved, nor did he want any entanglements with her.’
‘To put it bluntly, he thought she was dirty.’
Five minutes later, Zhang Shuxian finally felt she could move again.
The first thing she did after sitting up was check her body.
She found that the red spots had actually vanished!
She then ran to the mirror to look at her face.
‘It’s back to normal!’
‘This…
this is miraculous!’
Chen Jiang was speechless.
“Could you please put some clothes on first?”
Zhang Shuxian giggled.
“Don’t you like what you see?”
Chen Jiang looked away.
Unhurriedly, Zhang Shuxian bent over with her back to him and put on her qipao.
Chen Jiang struggled to calm himself.
‘This woman…
she’s definitely doing this on purpose.’
‘What man could possibly resist a view like this?’
Soon, Zhang Shuxian finished dressing.
Her eyes glinted.
“Handsome, your cream works wonders.
Have you considered selling it to me?”
‘This Jade Beauty Cream…
its effects are unbelievably effective!’
She could already smell the business opportunity.
“Not for sale.” Chen Jiang shook his head and warned, “And I’d advise you not to get any funny ideas.
Otherwise, you won’t be able to handle the consequences.”
Zhang Shuxian just smiled without saying anything.
‘She had Master Zhou behind her, and behind Master Zhou were the Jiulong Association and that man!’
‘That man was the true underground king of Lin City!’
‘Would she really be afraid of this kid’s threats?’
“I can buy the formula from you,” Zhang Shuxian said with a smile.
Chen Jiang stared at her and said coldly, “I can heal you, but I can also destroy you.
Don’t test my limits.”
“Alright, if you’re not willing, I won’t insist.” Zhang Shuxian changed the subject.
“Well, I’ll be leaving then, handsome.
The next time we meet, don’t reject me again.
You’ll hurt my feelings.” She gave him a seductive smile and left the room.
The moment she stepped out the door, however, the smile vanished from her face.
After she and the others had left, Xu Muya came in, trembling.
“Jiang, she didn’t give you a hard time, did she?”
Chen Jiang shook his head.
“No.”
Xu Muya grew even more worried.
“These people are unscrupulous.
They’ll do whatever it takes.
I have a feeling they’re going to target your formula.
The business potential is just too great.”
Chen Jiang smiled reassuringly.
“I’ll handle whatever they throw at me.
They can’t stir up too much trouble.”
This wasn’t just Chen Jiang boasting.
With his current strength, there were very few people who could threaten him.
He didn’t even bat an eye at some common thugs.
Just then, Chen Jiang’s phone suddenly began to ring!!
‘A call from Yuning?!’
‘Why is she suddenly calling me?’
He quickly answered the call.
“Brother Jiang, th-they’re back!
Those people are back!
They’re banging on the door, it’s so scary…
Brother Jiang, you…
you have to come back, quickly.”
Hearing this, Chen Jiang’s expression changed drastically.
Then, he could hear a group of men shouting and cursing on the other end, along with the loud BANGING on a metal door.
He could feel just how desperate Jiang Yuning and her sister must be, trapped in their home!
Xu Muya’s face turned pale as well.
He took a deep breath and said soothingly, “Don’t panic.
I’m on my way back right now.”
“Okay…
I…
we’ll wait for you,” Jiang Yuning sobbed.
Xu Muya frantically rushed outside, got in the car, and drove Chen Jiang toward their home.
A cold glint appeared in Chen Jiang’s eyes.
‘Since these guys broke their word, there’s no need for me to be polite anymore.
If they won’t listen to reason, I’ll let my fists do the talking and eliminate this threat for good!’
