Chapter 156

His movements were rough, carrying a sense of punishment without a shred of tenderness.

As his warm breath hit her, Nan Zhiyi forgot to move, her senses heightened to the extreme. She could feel the man’s breathing and his soft lips pressing against hers in a lingering, grinding friction.

Her mind went blank, and she froze on the spot.

Di Shijing gave her a sharp nip, seemingly dissatisfied with her distraction.

“Mm…”

Nan Zhiyi snapped back to her senses from the pain, a flush of shame and indignation coloring her cheeks.

She tried to struggle and break free, but it was useless. With a slight exertion of force, the man pinned her wrists against the wall. He not only neutralized her struggle but also locked her in that position, leaving Nan Zhiyi with no way to hide. She was forced to endure it.

His kiss was aggressive, leaving no room for air. Under the weight of this forced kiss, she felt as though she was about to suffocate.

This man… he actually caught her off guard!

Nan Zhiyi’s eyes reddened. In her desperation, she mirrored his earlier action and bit down hard.

The metallic taste of blood spread between their lips. Di Shijing let out a muffled groan and released Nan Zhiyi as the pain hit him.

Nan Zhiyi took the opportunity to break free from his grasp, her voice shaking with rage. “Di Shijing, have you lost your mind?!”

Di Shijing didn’t seem angered by her outburst. He raised a hand and wiped his lip, looking at the blood Nan Zhiyi had drawn.

He lowered his hand nonchalantly, the corners of his mouth curling upward. “I suppose I have.”

“…”

Nan Zhiyi was fuming.

But she had no way to deal with this man, and she was even more worried that he might lunge at her again.

Ding-

Just then, the elevator doors opened. While they were entangled, the elevator had already traveled up and down once; now, it had stopped back at the top floor.

Di Shijing was still in a foul mood, so he stepped out of the elevator and walked away without looking back.

Nan Zhiyi watched the man’s cold retreating figure, still in a state of disbelief.

This man… he just left like that?

He forced a kiss on her-didn’t he feel any guilt at all?

Nan Zhiyi couldn’t understand how things had escalated to this point. The sensation of the kiss seemed to linger on her lips, along with the metallic taste of his blood.

“You total jerk!”

Her face was still burning. In the end, all she could do was mutter a toothless curse before pressing the button to close the elevator doors.

By the time Di Shijing returned to his office, Nan Wanyue was just about to leave.

Seeing him return, she forced herself to brighten up.

“Jing…”

She had barely greeted him when her voice trailed off. She had spotted the wound on his lip.

Nan Wanyue froze in her tracks.

What happened? He was fine just a moment ago, so why was his lip cut now?

Recalling the image of Di Shijing chasing after Nan Zhiyi earlier, a realization dawned on her, and her expression instantly soured.

Zhou Yi noticed it as well. He stepped forward and asked, “Master, are you alright? Why are you bleeding?”

Di Shijing raised his hand and lightly touched the spot. A sting of pain followed, and he frowned slightly.

She really was a little wildcat; she hadn’t held back at all when she lashed out.

“Master?” Zhou Yi called out again in confusion when he saw no reaction.

Di Shijing lowered his hand and replied coldly, “It’s nothing.”

With that, he walked straight into his office.

Seeing the hostility radiating from his boss, Zhou Yi didn’t dare to follow and provoke him further.

However, Nan Wanyue wasn’t willing to let it go. She tried to chase after him, but Zhou Yi was quick to block her path.

“Director Nan, I suggest you don’t disturb the President right now.”

Nan Wanyue stood where she was, her fists clenched in fury.

When Nan Zhiyi left the Di Corporation, her heart was still pounding wildly, refusing to settle down.

She couldn’t help but curse Di Shijing again in her mind.

Only after venting her frustration did she calm down enough to drive toward the hospital.
Inside the hospital room, Nan Jincheng was present alongside Nan Zhiyi’s grandparents.

After entering, Nan Zhiyi ignored Nan Jincheng on the sofa and walked straight to the bedside.

“Grandmother, how are you feeling today? Are you doing better?” Nan Zhiyi asked with concern.

The Old Madam looked quite spirited. Compared to yesterday, her complexion was much more ruddy, and her mood brightened significantly at the sight of Nan Zhiyi.

She took Nan Zhiyi’s hand and said happily, “I’m feeling much better. It’s all thanks to my dear granddaughter taking care of me last night.”

The Old Madam’s expression was lively. Nan Zhiyi took the opportunity to sit by the bed and said with a smile, “I didn’t really do much last night. As long as you’re feeling better, that’s all that matters. Just remember to take your medicine on time and don’t let yourself get angry so easily. Getting angry is bad for your health; I shouldn’t have to tell you that, right?”

The Old Madam doted on her granddaughter, so she didn’t argue with anything Nan Zhiyi said. Instead, she smiled and agreed, “Alright, alright, I know. I’ll listen to you. I won’t get angry over nothing anymore.”

Seeing her so cooperative, Nan Zhiyi was pleased and stayed to chat with her.

As they talked, the conversation shifted toward her work.

“Are you busy with work? Will coming to see me every day delay your job?” The Old Madam asked, looking a bit worried.

Nan Zhiyi comforted her, “No, Grandmother. I’m not that busy. It’s fine.”

Just as she finished speaking, a mocking sneer drifted in from outside the room.

“She’s just a little assistant; how busy could she be? Do you really think she’s some sort of big shot? Everyone knows exactly how pathetically she was kicked out of the Di Family back then. It’s only been a few years, yet not only is she back, she has a lot of money. What kind of legitimate job earns that much?

“Who would believe that a mere assistant could have billions in savings? I’m afraid she’s being kept by someone, isn’t she?”

Inside the room, the two elders’ expressions changed instantly. These words were simply unbearable and incredibly foul!

Nan Zhiyi didn’t react much, looking over calmly.

The newcomers were Lin Xiaqing’s parents-Zhang Fuli and Lin Hongsen-along with Lin Xuezhen!

The one spewing such filth was Zhang Fuli.

As the three of them entered the room, their gazes toward Nan Zhiyi were filled with mockery and disgust.

Yesterday, Lin Xuezhen had been deeply shocked after seeing Nan Zhiyi’s bank balance. Even after returning home, she hadn’t been able to recover for a long time!

She truly couldn’t believe how a useless waste like Nan Zhiyi could have so much money!

On the other hand, Zhang Fuli and Lin Hongsen had rushed to the Nan Family home after hearing about the transfer of shares, nervously seeking confirmation from Lin Xuezhen.

“Did your family’s Old Master and Old Madam really transfer the shares to Nan Zhiyi’s name?”

Nan Yuede and Lin Xuezhen nodded in admission.

The Lin couple’s expressions shifted drastically, finding this fact hard to accept!

Zhang Fuli was even more distressed, cursing with a face full of resentment, “Those two are truly senile. To give so much money to that ungrateful wolf, Nan Zhiyi… Giving it to her is like throwing a meat bun at a dog-it’s never coming back! They might as well have given it to Xiaqing! At least Xiaqing is usually filial to them. What does Nan Zhiyi have?”

Lin Xuezhen was also frustrated and told her directly, “She probably doesn’t even care about that money. Her savings aren’t less than those shares… in fact, it’s ridiculously more.”

She then mentioned the string of zeros she had seen in Nan Zhiyi’s account.

Zhang Fuli was so angry her head spun, and she blurted out without thinking, “Sister! Nan Zhiyi is just a little assistant, where would she get that much money? If you ask me, she must be involved in some shady business!”

She began to speculate with pure malice, “You don’t know how it is these days. Some girls specialize in being high-end escorts. They just lie down in bed and the money comes rolling in! With Nan Zhiyi’s looks, she might actually be worth quite a bit.”
