Yin Yichen’s screams came to an abrupt halt.
He instinctively moved his hand.
It didn’t hurt anymore!
It didn’t hurt at all!
If not for the cold sweat that had just been brought on by the pain, he would have thought it was all an illusion.
“You… don’t think that just because of this, I won’t hold it against you!”
Nan Yan calmly clenched her fist and looked at him, “So how do you plan to hold it against me?”
Yin Yichen instinctively felt his bones ache and quickly took a step back, creating a safe distance between them.
Nan Yan raised an eyebrow, a hint of a cold smile playing on her lips, “If you want to fight, be prepared to miss the competition. When I strike, I don’t hold back. ”
Yin Yichen shrunk his neck and backed off.
Zhou Shaojie hurriedly mediated, chuckling, “We’re all members of the same team. If there’s a misunderstanding, we should clear it up. Creating such hostility among us will only lead to internal conflicts, and we’ll lose half of our chances in the upcoming competition.”
“We’re all working towards winning awards and securing scholarships. Don’t let minor issues affect our strength.”
Nan Yan remained noncommittal, gently biting her lower lip, looking at Yin Yichen with an ambiguous smile, “Student Yin, what do you think?”
Yin Yichen met her mischievous gaze and felt a shiver run down his spine.
He quickly lowered his head, avoiding her gaze, “I’m sorry, I was impulsive this time. I apologize, and there won’t be a second time for something like this.”
For the sake of his pride and his guaranteed scholarship, it wouldn’t be worth it to escalate the situation further.
He could endure for now and regain his dignity after the competition was over.
As for Goddess An…
Yin Yichen bit his lip irritably. Caught between his dreams and his admiration, he chose his dreams.
“Alright.” Nan Yan nodded, “I accept your apology.”
She casually placed her hands on the open laptop keyboard, typing in her account password, “Don’t bother me here. Go attend to your own matters.”
Yin Yichen breathed a sigh of relief, quickly returning to his seat and hiding behind the monitor.
Seeing Nan Yan’s impatience, Zhou Shaojie laughed casually, returning to his own place.
After school, back at her residence, Nan Yan put down her backpack and prepared to cook.
A call from Shen Junqing saved her the trouble of cooking.
She changed her clothes and not long after, Shen Junqing called again.
He had arrived downstairs.
Nan Yan picked up her phone, absentmindedly put on a baseball cap, locked the door, and went downstairs.
Shen Junqing leaned against the steering wheel, his tone casual as he discussed with her, “Sis, let’s grab a meal first. After eating, we’ll go see the person who tampered with my car?”
“Sure.”
Nan Yan had no objections.
After finishing dinner at a private restaurant, Shen Junqing took Nan Yan to one of his many resting places.
As they entered, Shen Junqing turned his head and said, “You know that person too.”
“Someone who’s against me?” Nan Yan quickly understood his implication.
“Yan Yan Sis, you’re quite clever!”
Nan Yan arched an eyebrow, feigning lack of seriousness, “My apologies then, almost got you involved.”
Her first two races had offended quite a number of people.
She had also encroached on many people’s interests.
Wanting to kill her was only natural.
However, their audacity was astonishing. They actually dared to involve Shen Junqing as well…
During these races, she and Shen Junqing would both be in the car. If something happened, the highest probability would be both of them losing their lives; survival was unlikely.
A touch of ruthlessness flickered in Nan Yan’s lowered eyes.
If they wanted to kill her, they better be prepared to be killed by her in return.
Liang Qian was in a very bad state.
Her body was tightly bound, and she hadn’t changed her position since last night. No one had visited her.
For a whole day and night, she hadn’t even had a sip of water. Her hunger gnawed at her, her body was numb from being bound for so long, and her blood circulation was obstructed, leaving her almost completely numb.
At first, she had screamed and shouted.
But no one paid her any attention.
As time went on, her throat became hoarse, and her parched throat seemed to emit smoke, rendering her voice useless.
As her nerves nearly gave way, the tightly shut door finally opened.
She strained to lift her head, hoping to catch a glimpse of who had brought her here.
But when she looked up, she saw Shen Junqing and Nan Yan.
“So, it’s you.”
Nan Yan hadn’t expected it to be her.
“Quite brave of you.”
“Third Young Master, I don’t know… what she’s saying.”
She wanted to squeeze out a few tears, but her dehydrated state left her incapable of crying, so she rasped, “I feel terrible. Can you please release me?”
Among the male-dominated racing circle, she had always held her ground and had never been bullied.
But this day and night of torment had almost driven her insane.
She hadn’t been physically harmed, but her current state made her wish someone would just beat her up.
“Why are you treating me like this? What did I do wrong?”
Shen Junqing looked down at her condescendingly and kicked her lightly, “My car had been tampered with by you.”
“I didn’t!” Liang Qian vehemently denied, “How could I ever tamper with your car? I like you so much!”
“Third Young Master, I’ve liked you for so many years. Even if I hurt myself, I would never hurt you!”
Liang Qian’s heart was consumed by a frenzy of resentment, accompanied by an overwhelming sense of fear.
She was torn between hatred and dread, her nerves tortured to the extreme.
She hated and feared, and her mind was tormented.
It wasn’t her who tampered with Shen Junqing’s car; it was someone she had hired. She hadn’t been present during the act.
They wouldn’t find any evidence on her!
This must be a deliberate setup against her!
It had to be!
Nan Yan clicked her tongue in disapproval, “How convenient it is to turn love into hatred.”
Liang Qian’s face paled; her inner turmoil had been pinpointed. Angrily, she retorted, “I didn’t!”
“Even if Third Young Master never agreed before, it didn’t stop me from pursuing him for all these years. Don’t spit falsehoods!”
“Whether I am or not, you know deep down.” Nan Yan couldn’t be bothered to argue further, “Third Brother, do you have any evidence?”
“Of course.” Shen Junqing chuckled, “Yan Yan, how do you want to handle her?”
“Since she’s here, you can decide what to do. Faking a car accident is quite easy.”
Shen Junqing wasn’t one to shy away from confrontation either, but he generally followed the principle of ‘you don’t mess with me, I don’t mess with you’.
If it weren’t for Nan Yan’s superior skills and a bit of luck, they might have ended up as two lost souls by now.
His intent to harm Liang Qian was quite pronounced.
“You could just send her straight to the police station with the evidence.” Nan Yan’s intention to kill wasn’t as strong, “Intentional murder. Third Brother, use your connections to make sure she spends the rest of her life in prison. Is that acceptable?”
“That’ll do.” Shen Junqing reached out, pulling Nan Yan into an embrace. He sighed, “Little sister, you’re genuinely kind.”
Liang Qian widened her eyes, listening as they disregarded anything she said and nonchalantly decided to send her to prison for the latter half of her life.
Her fear overwhelmed all her anger.
Only now did she feel remorse.
“No, please! I can’t go to jail!”
Liang Qian begged, “Third Young Master, I was wrong. Please don’t treat me like this. I truly never intended to harm you!”
“During the race yesterday, I intervened; you insisted on racing. I only wanted her to die, never thought of killing you!”
“It’s because of her… it’s all because of her….
