Chapter 157

The implication was clear: Nan Zhiyi had resorted to the same sordid means to get her money.

“You all remember, don’t you? It was because of Nan Zhiyi that our Xiaqing’s hand was ruined by Jiang Mojue, the owner of MJ Club!”

At this point, Zhang Fuli’s expression darkened as a fresh surge of anger rose in her heart. She spat out venomously, “How could a little slut like her ever get involved with someone like Jiang Mojue? If you ask me, she’s definitely sleeping with him!”

Lin Xuezhen and Nan Yuede had been shocked and bewildered earlier, but they hadn’t let their thoughts wander in that direction yet.

They had simply assumed Nan Zhiyi had found some lucrative business channel.

Hearing Zhang Fuli’s words now, they were stunned.

Zhang Fuli wasn’t finished. She sneered, “Nan Zhiyi relied on that face of hers to come back and seduce Young Master Di. Who knows what she’s been doing out there? Is it any wonder she’s ‘making money’?”

The Nan family couple looked at each other, feeling that this was indeed a possibility.

Nan Yuede couldn’t help but feel a pang of regret. “It’s my fault for being too shocked at the time. I was so intimidated by that bank balance that I didn’t even ask where it came from…”

Now that the shares had been transferred, it was too late for everything.

Lin Xuezhen was also filled with regret, even more unwilling to let the Nan family’s assets go to Nan Zhiyi for nothing.

That was why she had brought Lin Hongsen and Zhang Fuli along today.

Seeing the two from the Lin family, Old Master Nan immediately pulled a long face and snapped, “What nonsense are you here to spout now!”

“I’m not talking nonsense!”

Zhang Fuli stared coldly at Nan Zhiyi, her face full of disgust. “Some people are shameless, unscrupulous, and low-class. They’re willing to be kept women just to have that much in their savings! Otherwise, you tell me-how does a young girl like her get so much money? She earned it herself? Hah… I don’t believe it for a second!”

She looked at the two elders of the Nan family, her face practically screaming ‘I’m doing this for your own good.’ “Old Master, Old Madam, don’t let her appearance deceive you! This woman is no good! When she first reunited with the Nan family, you only lived with her for a few days. On the contrary, my sister and brother-in-law have been serving you personally all these years. You really need to keep your eyes open…”

Hearing Zhang Fuli’s long-winded slander, a flicker of ridicule flashed in Nan Zhiyi’s cold eyes.

Before she could act, she saw her grandmother beside her raise a hand, grab a water cup, and hurl it at the woman. “Shut up! I will judge for myself what kind of person my granddaughter is. It’s not your place to tell me what’s what!”

Zhang Fuli was startled and hurriedly dodged to the side.

The water cup shattered with a ‘crack’ right where she had been standing. If she hadn’t moved, it would have hit her square on.

Seeing the Old Madam and Old Master’s blatant dislike, Zhang Fuli’s temper flared.

These two old fossils really didn’t know what was good for them!

Consequently, her tone became rude. “You’ve really gone senile! You can’t even tell right from wrong! I’m doing this for your own good, but you’re treating my kindness like dirt!”

Hearing this, Nan Jincheng’s gaze suddenly darkened. He barked, “Aunt! Watch your words!”

The two elders of the Nan family were also fuming with rage at her words.

Nan Zhiyi could no longer sit still.

Grandmother couldn’t afford to get agitated right now. This old woman had been babbling non-stop since she arrived, showing absolutely no regard for the Old Madam’s health!

She stood up, her eyes sharp as she walked straight toward Zhang Fuli.

Before anyone could ask what she was doing, she suddenly grabbed Zhang Fuli’s chin. Her words were as cold as ice shards. “Did you go to the toilet for a feast before leaving the house this morning? Your mouth is so filthy, spraying shit everywhere.”

“Then again, only a person as filthy as you would have such filthy thoughts, thinking everyone else is indecent! You’ve spent your whole life with no ambition, only fit to be someone else’s dog!”

Unable to break free, Zhang Fuli became frantic with rage. “You little bitch, let go of me!”
Nan Zhiyi didn’t give her a chance. She tightened her grip, squeezing so hard that Zhang Fuli cried out in pain, “Ah-!”

“This is a hospital. No shouting allowed, and certainly no barking like a rabid dog. Since you don’t know how to speak like a human, you might as well stop speaking altogether!”

As soon as Nan Zhiyi finished speaking, she produced a pill from nowhere and swiftly shoved it into Zhang Fuli’s mouth before abruptly releasing her hand.

Zhang Fuli stumbled back a few steps, clutching her throat. She let out a guttural roar, “Nan Zhiyi! What did you give me?”

In the moment the object entered her mouth, she hadn’t been paying attention and had swallowed it instinctively.

Nan Zhiyi didn’t answer. With a contemptuous smirk, she took out a tissue to wipe her hands and turned back to the Old Master and Old Madam.

Zhang Fuli was about to launch into a stream of abuse, but in the next second, she suddenly found herself unable to make a sound!

She opened her mouth, looking like she was performing a pantomime, her face a mask of panic and fear.

The others noticed something was wrong as well.

Nan Jincheng immediately looked at Nan Zhiyi and demanded, “What did you feed her?”

Nan Zhiyi had fed her a Mute Pill!

Zhang Fuli had a foul mouth and said disgusting things that were irritating to hear, so Nan Zhiyi decided to simply silence her.

However, she certainly wasn’t going to admit to it.

So, she feigned ignorance and asked back, “Fed her what?”

Lin Hongsen gritted his teeth. “You just threw something into her mouth!”

Nan Zhiyi looked perfectly calm. “When? How come I didn’t know? Do you have evidence?”

Lin Xuezhen was furious and barked, “We all saw it!”

“So what?”

Nan Zhiyi countered directly, “You’re all cut from the same cloth. Even if we went to court, none of you could serve as a credible witness.”

Then, she looked at Nan Jincheng. “Lawyer Nan, everything must be based on evidence, right?”

Being handled like this made Nan Jincheng’s face turn ashen; he was incredibly frustrated. Nan Zhiyi’s movements had been too fast. Although they had seen it, they didn’t have enough time to take a photo or video, so they had no proof.

Nan Zhiyi was banking on exactly that, which was why she dared to be so brazen.

Lin Hongsen glared at Nan Zhiyi and cursed, “Nan Zhiyi, she is your aunt after all! How can you be so malicious!”

Now they want to play the family card?

Nan Zhiyi found it laughable. “I’m malicious? How can I compare to you all? Slandering and attacking people the moment you open your mouths… If you really considered me your niece, you wouldn’t have said such disgusting things! This is just how I am-I pay back every grievance. If you don’t like it, deal with it!”

Ignoring their fury, she pulled over a chair and sat down leisurely beside the Old Madam.

Seeing that she clearly wasn’t going to admit to anything, Nan Jincheng frowned deeply and asked with displeasure, “What will it take for you to help my aunt recover?”

Nan Zhiyi acted as if she didn’t understand him, replying coldly, “How could I help her recover? What does this have to do with me? Don’t go around making baseless accusations!”

“You…”

The group was choked with rage by Nan Zhiyi’s attitude.

Yet, none of them could do anything to her.

Zhang Fuli was terrified. She eventually grabbed her husband and dragged him toward the door, gesturing wildly with her hands and feet to indicate she wanted to see a doctor.

Lin Hongsen was also afraid she wouldn’t get better, so he hurriedly led her out.

Naturally, Lin Xuezhen and Nan Jincheng couldn’t rest easy and followed them out in a rush.

Before leaving, Lin Xuezhen gritted her teeth and glared at Nan Zhiyi. “You brat, if anything happens to your aunt, you just wait and see!”
