Chapter 178 - 178: They Will Regret It in the Future!
An Xiran hadn’t fully recovered from the shock of realizing that his little sister was a martial arts expert.
Then he saw Nan Yan take the hammer from him and slam it onto Bai Haoxuan’s right hand.
“Ahhh!”
A piercing and miserable scream erupted from Bai Haoxuan. The intense pain snapped him back to consciousness.
“My hand! My hand!”
He stared at his somewhat deformed hand, continuously screaming.
“Shhh…” Nan Yan tapped the floor with the hammer, her tone icy as she said,
“Don’t make a scene.”
“If you make another sound, I’ll crush every bone in your hand.”
Bai Haoxuan could feel that Nan Yan wasn’t joking. The excruciating pain in his right hand made it clear that she meant business.
“You…” Bai Haoxuan’s pain contorted his features, and fear gripped his heart.
“What do you want to do…”
“I didn’t really want to do much,” Nan Yan replied indifferently. “I just wanted to remind you that you owe me one billion.”
Bai Haoxuan’s eyes widened. “You must be dreaming!”
In his mind, once the money was in his hands, it was his, and he would never give it back.
“Well, let’s see whose resolve is stronger, your bones or my hammer,” Nan Yan’s tone remained cold, but her actions were merciless. Her eyes didn’t even blink as she raised her hammer and brought it down in one swift motion.
On the sidelines, An Xiran felt his scalp tingle.
As the hammer struck, Bai Haoxuan let out a hoarse and miserable scream, and his eyes rolled back as he passed out.
“Yan… Yan Yan…” An Xiran’s voice trembled. “We’re law-abiding citizens, beating him is one thing, but is this… is this really appropriate?” He had never realized how ruthless his little sister could be.
Nan Yan lifted her gaze, unfazed. “Either stand aside or keep quiet.”
An Xiran:
He chose to keep quiet.
Bai Haoxuan didn’t remain unconscious for more than a minute before Nan Yan forcefully woke him up again. The excruciating pain in his hands, coupled with Nan Yan’s impatient use of the hammer on the ground in front of him, terrified him.
“I’ll give… I’ll give it back to you, okay? Just don’t hit me!”
He was scared to death. Tears and snot streamed down his face, and he showed no signs of resistance.
But in the next moment, he cried out, “I can’t use my phone with my hand…” Nan Yan delivered another blow to his right hand.
Bai Haoxuan screamed again but then realized that his hand, though painful, had returned to its original shape. His fingers were now movable.
He couldn’t help but be grateful that Nan Yan hadn’t actually shattered his hand. He took out his phone, trembling, opened his mobile banking app, and reluctantly prepared to transfer the money back.
“When you return the money, you better think about how the interest should be calculated.”
Nan Yan’s words made Bai Haoxuan shudder. His hand shook even more violently.
Finally, he gritted his teeth and transferred an additional ten million. Money had left his hands for only a day, but it had returned with an extra ten million. The interest was quite favorable.
Nan Yan was somewhat satisfied with the result.
Bai Haoxuan wasn’t sure about her intentions, so he quickly pleaded, “Miss Nan Yan, you’re a magnanimous person. Please spare me. I promise I won’t go against you anymore. Fourth Young Master, Fourth Young Master, I beg you, please help me plead for mercy. It was my fault for not recognizing your importance; I truly dare not anymore…”
While An Xiran nearly wanted to give Bai Haoxuan a kick, he considered that Nan Yan’s actions had gone a bit too far. He suggested, “Nan Yan, we’ve got the money back. Why don’t we go back now?”
He was worried that Bai Haoxuan might report this incident to the police.
Nan Yan agreed indifferently and lazily threw the hammer on the ground.,
“Mmm, Fourth Brother, let’s go.”
An Xiran picked up his bag, along with the items he had brought, and followed
Nan Yan out of the room.
“Yanyan, when did you learn martial arts? Those people didn’t look like pushovers, yet you managed to defeat them all by yourself!” An Xiran finally had time to think about what had happened to Nan Yan.
He had thought she was just an ordinary girl, completely unaware of her capabilities.
Nan Yan casually replied, “I’ve had my share of fights. That’s why I’m a bit tougher.”
She had participated in life-and-death arena battles before.
For the sake of earning money, she had done everything, from underground fighting to the most lucrative extreme battles.
However…
A suppressed and extremely sorrowful aura emanated from Nan Yan.
An Xiran could feel her sadness and oppression. He assumed she was recalling her experiences with her adoptive parents’ abuse.
“Yanyan, everything’s in the past. Don’t dwell on it!” He placed his hand on her shoulder, looking at her seriously. “You’ve grown up now. Don’t care about others; just focus on yourself. Fourth Brother will always be your strong support!”
Nan Yan’s emotions, interrupted by An Xiran, gradually dissipated. She lowered her head and said, “Thank you, Fourth Brother.”
“Why are you being so formal with your own Fourth Brother? Don’t be distant,” An Xiran insisted.
The people in their family were blind. Instead of cherishing their blood-related daughter/sister, they cared for an adopted daughter who had no blood ties. In the future, they would regret it!
Nan Yan didn’t need them.
With him and his grandfather, that was enough!
An Xiran harbored some malicious thoughts.
He thought that when they eventually discovered how exceptional their little sister was, but she would refuse to forgive them, that’s when they’d regret it.
After a while, An Xiran spoke solemnly, “Yanyan, if by any chance Bai Haoxuan reports this incident to the police, you just say I did it. Don’t worry about anything else, okay?”
“If he reports, it’s not certain who will end up in trouble,” Nan Yan’s eyes held a cold glint. “If he has any brains left, he won’t call the police.”
“That’s true… He was in the wrong from the beginning, and we acted in self-defense!”
In a hotel room, Bai Haoxuan endured the intense pain and called Luo Ling. “Cousin, why didn’t you tell me that Nan Yan is so formidable?”
He had initially thought that Nan Yan was just an ordinary girl and hadn’t expected her to have such abilities.
However, she had clearly drunk that drugged drink!
Even if she was skilled, the drug should have rendered her powerless. And as for An Xiran…
Before, they had all pretended to be unconscious!
“What happened to her?” Luo Ling furrowed her brow, feeling annoyed because she hadn’t been able to meet Qin Lu. Naturally, her tone wasn’t pleasant. “Don’t tell me that with so many of you, you couldn’t handle her, and she got away? “Handle her? Cousin, she took care of all of us!” Bai Haoxuan seethed with anger. “In less than five minutes, she defeated the people you sent, crippled my hand, and conned me out of ten million!”
“Cousin, you have to help me get revenge!”
