Just as the two were about to enter, Xia Wanqing suddenly appeared.
An Nuan looked at Xia Wanqing with confusion.
Why would Xia Wanqing appear now? What was she doing here?
Xia Wanqing's face had lost its former rosy complexion, and her spirit was at its worst. She was so thin that she looked like a completely different person.
An Nuan frowned slightly, wondering what Xia Wanqing had been through.
But no matter what she had experienced, why did she have to appear here? Most importantly, Xia Wanqing's hateful gaze seemed as though she wanted to rush forward and kill her.
An Nuan's mood was indeed not good, but in the end, she didn't say much.
But just as Nangong Jin was about to pull An Nuan's hand to go inside, Xia Wanqing suddenly seemed to go mad. She rushed directly in front of An Nuan, holding a dagger, and was about to stab An Nuan.
At this moment, Nangong Jin's movements were incredibly fast. He quickly shielded An Nuan behind him and kicked Xia Wanqing away.
At this point, all of Nangong Jin's relatives finally reacted.
One by one, they shielded An Nuan.
Seeing herself protected by so many people, An Nuan was instantly moved.
After all, no one had ever defended her like this. But ever since Nangong Jin appeared, her life had undergone a world-altering transformation.
Nangong Jin truly doted on and loved her.
"Nangong Jin, let me go forward and talk to her, okay?"
Nangong Jin held An Nuan tightly behind him, unwilling to let her have too much contact with Xia Wanqing.
In his opinion, someone like Xia Wanqing was too dangerous, and it was best to stay far away from her.
"An Nuan, this person is truly too dangerous. I don't want you to be in danger."
"Besides, if I hadn't intervened just now, this person might have taken your life."
Hearing Nangong Jin's anxious words, An Nuan's heart was truly warmed.
But An Nuan felt that since this matter was directed at her, she had to handle it properly, didn't she?
However, due to what had just happened, quite a few people had gathered around.
To prevent the situation from escalating, Nangong Jin directly took her away.
An Nuan was very grateful for what Nangong Jin had done for her.
She knew that Nangong Jin had done all this for her.
If it weren't for her, Nangong Jin wouldn't have had to do so many things.
An Nuan was exceptionally happy at this moment, with a light smile on her face, she looked at Nangong Jin and said, "Thank you, thank you Nangong Jin."
"Thank you for doing so much for me."
"Originally, today was a very good day, but because of my matters, the good things were ruined. I'm truly sorry."
At this moment, An Nuan was full of apology; in fact, other than saying thank you, she didn't know what else to say.
She even didn't know what she should do or say to thank Nangong Jin.
Nangong Jin had been too good to her, so good that she even doubted if what was happening to her now was real.
Nangong Jin looked at An Nuan and gently comforted her, "An Nuan, you don't need to say anything. I understand, and I know everything. Therefore, you can rest assured."
"You should know that no matter what you do, I will support you."
After Nangong Jin finished speaking, he let An Nuan face Xia Wanqing, but he still stayed by her side, constantly paying attention.
He was just worried that Xia Wanqing would go crazy again and attack An Nuan.
An Nuan was already injured; her body had suffered severe damage and could not sustain any more harm.
The only thing he could do now was to protect An Nuan well and prevent her from getting hurt again.
An Nuan walked up to Xia Wanqing and looked at her coldly, "Xia Wanqing, why did you attack me? Also, how did you know I would be there?"
"If someone hadn't told you, you shouldn't have known my whereabouts."
"Who was it? Who told you I would be there?"
Xia Wanqing looked at An Nuan defiantly, even wanting to kill An Nuan.
But now? She could do nothing but watch the person in front of her.
"An Nuan, do you think I have to tell you just because you ask me?"
"An Nuan, who do you think you are? Asking me how I knew you would be there?"
"Yes, just as you said, someone told me where you would be."
Xia Wanqing said with a triumphant smile, "You must be very curious about who that person is. But, An Nuan, even if I die, I won't tell you."
"I want to keep this matter in your heart forever, making you uneasy."
"An Nuan, you ruined the happiness that originally belonged to me, so why should I let you off the hook?"
"An Nuan, you will never have a good life in this lifetime. I will haunt you forever, even after I die, I will still be with you."
Xia Wanqing said sinisterly, her face contorted.
An Nuan's expression changed slightly upon hearing Xia Wanqing's words.
She had kept Xia Wanqing alive precisely to ask her who had told her. Not many people knew about this matter. It must have been someone around Nangong Jin. But who exactly?
Who had let the news slip?
This person must be caught, otherwise, more trouble would surely follow.
"An Nuan, do you really want to know?" Xia Wanqing's face was filled with a deep smile, even a hint of pride.
"Actually, it's not impossible for me to tell you," Xia Wanqing said triumphantly. "If you can kneel down to me, kowtow to me, and slap yourself, then I might be merciful and tell you some things."
An Nuan just looked at Xia Wanqing coldly. For a moment, she thought that Xia Wanqing's words were sheer delusion. Had she forgotten that her life was now in An Nuan's hands?
How could she still have the nerve to say such things?
Shouldn't it be her who was kneeling and begging for mercy now?
Xia Wanqing, dragging her pained body and her broken form, slowly leaned against the wall, a triumphant smile curling her lips.
Heh heh, she would wait, wait for An Nuan to bow her head, wait for An Nuan to beg for mercy.
She believed An Nuan would definitely apologize. This plan was truly flawless.
She originally expected to hear An Nuan's apology, but what happened next caught her by surprise.
