Chapter 87: Counterattack (3)
Nanyao loved Fu Shaoxiu and was carrying his child. Ever since she met him, her greatest wish had been to trample Nan Zhi and marry into the Fu family as the young mistress. If a scandal broke out, she would become the biggest laughingstock under the heavens. Last time, when she discovered he was keeping a woman outside, he swore to her that he would never betray her again. She believed Fu Shaoxiu loved her; it was always those vixens outside seducing him.
Nanyao lowered her gaze, her eyes reddened as she gently caressed her belly. She was about to marry into the Fu family; she absolutely could not let the media expose this incident at such a critical moment.
...
"Zhi Zhi, is asking Nanyao for five million too much? Can she really come up with it in half an hour?" Nan Zhi, having taken cold medicine, felt her head even heavier. She sat cross-legged on the sofa, sniffling as she spoke in a raspy voice, "If she still wants to marry into the Fu family, she'll transfer it, no doubt. As for the money, she surely isn't lacking." Last time at the television station, Nan Zhi noticed Nanyao carrying bags worth over a million each, proof of how lavish her life had become.
Xia Yanran shook her head in disbelief, "I just don't get why Nanyao likes that scumbag so much." Nan Zhi replied, "She fought hard to win him, and with the Fu family being a renowned name in Ning City, Nanyao wouldn't let go easily."
"So, she's brought this on herself." Less than half an hour later, a new message appeared on the phone Xia Yanran had handed to Nan Zhi—a transfer notification. Nan Zhi curled her lips in a smile, "The money's in. Both you and Yu Bing helped me with this, so I'll share it with you." Xia Yanran refused, "No, I don't want my share. Save it for my godson!" Nan Zhi reached out and tapped Xia Yanran's nose, "Alright, I'll keep it on this card for now. Whenever you need money, just ask."
After receiving the money, Nan Zhi sent a message to Nanyao: Hyatt Hotel, Room 8088.
"By the way, Yanran, should we give something to your hacker friend who helped us break into the hotel surveillance system?" "He said yesterday it wasn't necessary—just a small favor." Xia Yanran leaned back against the sofa, "Now that it's settled, I'm heading home to sleep. Oh, Zhi Zhi, yesterday I didn't just take photos, I also recorded videos. I'll send them all to you later." Nan Zhi gestured an 'OK,' "Now that I've got the money, the photos can't be released, but I still have the videos. I finally have something on Fu Shaoxiu; if he dares to mess around again, I'll ruin him."
Xia Yanran cupped Nan Zhi's delicate face and smacked her lips, "Zhi Zhi, I really wonder who'll be able to tame you, little enchantress." Instantly, a wild and unruly face flashed through Nan Zhi's mind, making her shudder unexpectedly.
"My goodness, how terrifying," she muttered.
Xia Yanran was puzzled, "What's so scary?"
Nan Zhi shook her head quickly, "Nothing, just thought of someone who needs medical treatment."
Yawning, Xia Yanran said, "I'm exhausted. Zhi Zhi, you should get some rest too. I'm heading home now." Nan Zhi walked her to the door. After changing her shoes, Xia Yanran paused as if recalling something, "If Nanyao rushes over now, she won't run into that woman, right?" Nan Zhi smiled slyly, like a little fox. "I've made sure that woman left a gift for Nanyao!"
Xia Yanran pinched Nan Zhi's cheek, "So cunning."
...
Nanyao stormed into the Hyatt Hotel, flanked by two bodyguards. She couldn't do anything to Fu Shaoxiu, but today, she absolutely wouldn't let that vixen off. Standing before Room 8088, her face dark as thunder, she pressed the doorbell furiously. She rang for ages, but no one answered. Just as she lost patience and was about to have her bodyguards kick the door in, someone opened it from inside.
