Chapter 78 Why did you hit me?
She turned her head slightly and secretly glanced at the man out of the corner of her eye.
However, this subtle movement did not escape the man's keen eyes. He quickly noticed it, but did not respond. He simply kept staring at her intently.
Seeing the man's reaction, Jiang Wanjun's initially uneasy heart calmed down a bit, and she gradually became bolder.
After hesitating for a long time, she finally mustered up her courage and cautiously asked, "Do you have anything else to do? Or... or why don't you go ahead and do what you need to do?"
Upon hearing this, a complex and indescribable expression instantly appeared on the man's face, as if he were pondering something to himself.
A moment later, he shook his head slightly, a hint of mockery in his eyes, and said, "I have nothing to do, I'm not busy at all."
As soon as she finished speaking, Jiang Wanjun's face darkened instantly, her expression filled with undisguised disappointment.
Seeing her dejected look, the man couldn't help but chuckle to himself, finding her facial expression incredibly vivid.
However, he didn't want her to get discouraged like this, so he deliberately paused for a moment before slowly continuing, "What, could it be... that you have something to do?"
Upon hearing this, Jiang Wanjun's eyes immediately lit up, even though she had been feeling disheartened.
To avoid making herself too obvious, she withdrew the corners of her mouth from the smile and tried to suppress her excitement, but her lighthearted tone couldn't be contained: "Yes, yes, I have something to do, I'll go first, bye-bye!"
She finished speaking in one breath, afraid that the person would interrupt her. Before the last word had even fallen, she had already turned around.
But she didn't get her wish, because the person next to her grabbed her—no, not grabbed, but hugged her!
He hugged himself?
I wasn't wrong! He finally couldn't hold back and attacked me!
"What are you doing?" Accompanied by this angry shout, a crisp sound suddenly rang out.
"Snapped--"
With lightning speed, she slapped the man's handsome face hard across his raised hand.
She used all her strength in that slap, but even so, the anger in her heart was not quelled in the slightest, and she even felt that it was far from enough to vent her anger.
So, as soon as her hand fell, she raised it again without hesitation, ready to deliver an even more powerful blow.
Hmph, do you really think I'm a pushover? Just because I haven't shown my teeth doesn't mean I'm a pushover! I, Jiang Wanjun, have never been someone to be trifled with. Daring to treat me like this is simply courting death!
Her eyes were filled with the anger she hadn't dared to show earlier. In her twenty-odd years of life, she had never been treated like this before. This time, she would repay him in full!
The man was slapped and still couldn't believe it. Was this woman really that bad-tempered? In the heat of the moment, he put his arm around her waist, and she was about to attack him?
And what does raising that hand again mean? Is it another chance to fight?
As he expected, the slender, long hand lunged at his face with all its might. He had just been slapped on the left cheek; he couldn't afford to get slapped again!
He looked flustered and hurriedly dodged, while simultaneously raising his arm in an attempt to intercept Jiang Wanjun's hand in mid-air.
However, Jiang Wanjun's movements were exceptionally swift and agile, easily avoiding his hasty block.
A crisp "smack" rang out again, but this time the blow landed on the right cheek, not the left!
A searing pain instantly spread across his entire face, causing him to gasp in shock.
At this moment, his eyes widened, filled with raging anger and deep bewilderment.
He roared at Jiang Wanjun in a fit of rage, "Jiang Wanjun! Why did you hit me?"
Jiang Wanjun vented the anger that had been building up inside her all night, and felt a little better. She didn't care about his questioning at all and just wanted to escape this place of trouble as soon as possible.
I know my own strength. If this person realizes what's going on, I won't be able to leave!
She turned to leave, but was grabbed and hugged around the waist by the person behind her.
"Don't go! You have to give me an explanation. Why did you hit me?"
He wouldn't let go, and Jiang Wanjun couldn't break free! See? This is the disparity in strength between men and women. Now that she's angered him and is under his control, it seems she's in grave danger tonight!
Jiang Wanjun's worries returned, and she ignored his questions.
"Let go!" Jiang Wanjun punched his arm.
"Why did you hit me?" the man continued to ask.
"let go!"
"Why did you hit me?"
……
The conversation was repeated over and over until, in the end, both of them were exhausted.
Suddenly, someone jumped out from the side—it was Chen Can!
Jiang Wanjun was overjoyed. Although she had just set a trap for someone, at this moment, she was undoubtedly her lifeline!
"Can Can, come quick, save me!" Jiang Wanjun shouted at her in an extremely familiar tone.
"Can Can? Are we that close?" Chen Can frowned, looking at her with confusion.
Jiang Wanjun felt that she had been kicked in the head by a donkey. The situation was so critical. Was this the time to discuss whether they were familiar with each other or not?
She lowered her stance and pleaded, "We're very close, please help me."
Chen Can finally stopped asking questions, but she didn't come to save her as she had promised.
Chen Can's gaze darted back and forth between the two people who were standing close together, without uttering a single word about "letting her go."
Jiang Wanjun was getting anxious. Couldn't she see such an obvious situation? Did she think she was a detective? Straining clues to identify suspects?
Chen Can probably sensed what she was thinking and withdrew his gaze from the two of them. However, she seemed to roll her eyes at him!
What do you mean? Do you look down on yourself? Not everyone is as strong as her!
Chen Can didn't think that way; she simply thought Jiang Wanjun was foolish.
Chen Can gave her a meaningful look, then turned and left!
"Hey, don't go! Come back!" Jiang Wanjun waved her hands, trying to pull Chen Can back.
Chen Can stopped as expected, glanced back at her, and sighed, "Sigh!"
She turned back to look at the man holding Jiang Wanjun and gave him a mysterious smile.
"No, what's going on?" Jiang Wanjun was completely confused.
Do these two know each other? Chen Can was furious that he had tricked him, so he hired someone to teach him a lesson?
Considering Chen Can's performance, the more she thought about it, the more likely it seemed!
Is Chen Can really that petty? Jiangcheng is only so big, and the Chen family and the Jiang family see each other all the time. How dare she do this so blatantly?
What should we do? We're truly at our wits' end!
Jiang Wanjun was so anxious she wanted to spin around, but someone was holding her waist and she couldn't turn around at all!
Moreover, Chen Can and the man restraining him were actually making eye contact? Were they exchanging messages?
The man seemed to be confirming the target with Chen Can, whose eyes were certain, as if to say: This is her, there's no mistake!
