Chapter 129: Defend

A perfectly-cut pink diamond ring shone brilliantly in the light. The boy put the pink diamond ring in Nan Zhi’s hand and ran away before Nan Zhi could say anything.

There seemed to be words engraved on the inside of the ring. Nan Zhi picked it up and looked at it.

Z♡Y.

Nan Zhi knew that the Z represented the ‘Zhi’ of her name, the heart meant love, but the Y…

Every year on her birthday since she came back from abroad, she would receive a mysterious gift.

These three characters were on every gift.

Nan Zhi bit her lip. She could not think of who would be sending her gifts for these past few years.

Not to mention, they were all expensive gifts.

The jewelry sent from the past few years were all kept properly by her, but she had never worn them. She was waiting for the day she would get to meet this mysterious person and return the gifts to him.

“Wow! Pretty Zhizhi , which wild man gave you a ring?” Xiaojie asked with a hint of jealousy.

Nan Zhi shook her head. “Mommy doesn’t know.” She looked around but there were no suspicious people at the entrance of the hotel, only a number of luxury cars.

Suddenly, Nan Zhi felt a gaze that could not be ignored, directed at her from one of the cars. Her spine tingled. She took a few tentative steps forward, wanting to take a look. Then a regal voice with a tinge of reproachfulness interrupted her, “Nan Zhi?”

Nan Zhi turned back and narrowed her eyes when she saw Nan Weiye, whose gaze was as sharp as knives, striding towards her, with Ding Shuman holding his arm.

She had been back for some time, but she did not think that father and daughter would meet at this place.

It was obvious that Nan Weiye did not want to see her. It was like a great taboo with her appearing here.

Nan Zhi gave the ring in her hand a pinch. When she was about to say something, she heard Nan Weiye say unhappily, “Did you come here on purpose knowing that I’m celebrating your Auntie’s birthday?”

Nan Zhi smirked coldly. “You think too much.”

“Otherwise how could you appear here with your status? I’ll tell you this Nan Zhi, you did a disgraceful thing four years ago. You’d better behave yourself now that you’re back. You can’t bully Yaoyao in the broadcasting station or don’t blame me for being ruthless!”

He already had no affection for her as his daughter! Wasn’t the incident four years ago staged by his own two hands?

“Hey, where did you come from, old man? Is my Pretty Zhizhi for you to lecture?”

Nan Weiye looked at Xiaojie who was standing in front of Nan Zhi’s legs. He was wearing a baseball cap pulled very low. Nan Weiye could only see the small and delicate mouth and beautiful chin. Although he could not see his whole face, he could tell that the little boy was a beautiful child.

But no matter how beautiful he was, he was rude and unlikeable. Nan Weiye scowled and scolded, “Nan Zhi, who is he?”

Nan Zhi replied coldly, “He’s my son.”

Ding Shuman chimed in with disdain in her eyes. “Hubby, Zhizhi is becoming more and more outrageous. How could she get pregnant and give birth to a bastard child before getting married? If this gets out, what would become of your reputation?”

Nan Zhi’s expression changed. She went forward, raised her hand and slapped Ding Shuman across the face.

She did not care whether Ding Shuman was an elder or not. She had endured her slandering ever since she had married into the Nan family, but she would not accept that woman calling her son a bastard!

Nan Zhi was too fast and Ding Shuman had never expected that Nan Zhi would dare to hit her. She only showed an expression of disbelief when she felt the stinging pain on her face. “Hubby, s-she hit me…” Today was her birthday, she was angry enough with the person from the number one ballroon, and now, she was slapped by Nan Zhi as she was leaving.

Ding Shuman, grasped onto Nan Weiye’s arm with tears dripping down her face. “Hubby, I don’t want to live anymore.”

Nan Weiye looked at Nan Zhi. He thought of her parentage and her mother’s betrayal that year. He gritted his teeth with hate and raised his hand to teach this unfilial girl a lesson. However, he had just raised his hand when his wrist was grabbed and held back by a strong and forceful hand.

Nan Weiye wanted to free his hand but the other party was too strong. He was thrown to the side with one swing. He stepped back unsteadily and almost fell. Fortunately, Ding Shuman caught him quickly before he fell to the ground.

Nan Weiye steadied himself and raised his head, looking into a pair of dark and menacing eyes.

Nan Weiye had mixed in the business industry for years and had never seen a man with such a domineering and intimidating aura, especially one who looked so young.

Nan Zhi and Xiaojie were huddled behind him. He was like an inviolable mountain, cold and powerful.

Mu Sihan looked at Nan Weiye with cold eyes. “I don’t care who you are, but except for me, no one is allowed to bully the woman and child I’m protecting!”

Nan Weiye wanted to say something but there were some noises from behind. “Make way, make way please…”

Nan Weiye and Ding Shuman were stunned to see Nan Yao coming out with the medical staff.

“Yaoyao, what happened?” Ding Shuman asked.

“Shaoxiu, he…”

Ding Shuman was shocked to see Bo Shaoxiu on the stretcher with a bruised face. “He… is Shoaxiu?” How did he get into such a miserable state in such a short period?

Nan Weiye was also shocked. How could anyone use violence against Shaoxiu in such a high-end hotel like Huangting?

…

The chauffeur was already by the door. Mu Sihan took Xiaojie from Nan Zhi’s arms. His other hand held onto hers naturally and he brought both mother and son into the car.

Ye Qianqian ran after Mu Sihan to the door and saw that he was carrying a child and holding a woman’s hand. Her eyes were full of jealousy and unhappiness.

She took out her phone and called a number.
