Chapter 1520: Chapter 1520: Showing Off One’s Proficiency in Front of an Expert

"What’s wrong? Shocked?" Jian Dan walked up to the woman with a smirk.

"You~ You~ You~~ You~ You~"

"You, you, you, you... Can you even finish your sentence?

I reminded you earlier, didn’t I? Told you to call for backup. See how important it is to listen to advice!

And now look what happened. I haven’t even had my fun yet, and it’s already over. Boring." Jian Dan stepped closer to the woman.

"What do you want? Don’t you dare touch me!" The woman’s legs gave out, and she collapsed onto the ground.

Jian Dan didn’t say a word but kept walking toward the woman step by step, which was even more terrifying.

The woman kept retreating. "Fang Yuan, are you just going to stand there and watch? Don’t forget, your mother is still in the hospital because of whom!" She shouted at Fang Yuan.

"Fang Yuan? What’s going on with your mother?" Jian Dan straightened up and looked at Fang Yuan.

Fang Yuan’s expression changed as he turned away, avoiding eye contact.

Seeing Fang Yuan hesitate to speak, the woman suddenly seemed emboldened. She stood up, dusting herself off, and looked at Jian Dan with a smug smile. "His mother has a terminal illness. Staying in the hospital every day costs a fortune. Do you think he can afford that? If it weren’t for me, his mother would’ve been thrown out onto the streets ages ago."

"Fang Yuan, is this true?" Now everything made sense—why Fang Yuan chose to be with this woman.

"Of course it’s true. So you’d better not mess with me. Behave yourself and let me slap you a few times to vent my anger. Otherwise, I’ll call the hospital immediately and have them throw his mother out onto the street." The woman tilted her chin up triumphantly.

These days, what’s the use of being able to fight? Money is the ultimate power.

"Oh? Go ahead. Try." Jian Dan’s gaze turned icy cold.

"What do you want? Planning to hit me? Let me tell you, if you dare lay a finger on me today, I guarantee his mother will be thrown out in the next second. As for you, I’ll make sure you end up in prison for a few years. I hear the food there is quite delightful."

The moment these words left her mouth, the fire in Qin Rou’s eyes was instantly ignited.

Jian Dan and Xia Mengjiao both knew this was Qin Rou’s forbidden zone, so they immediately turned to see Qin Rou’s reaction—and sure enough...

"What are you trying to do?" The woman trembled as she grabbed a glass from the table beside her and pointed it at Qin Rou.

"What am I trying to do? You tell me—what do YOU think I want to do?" Qin Rou advanced step by step.

When the woman was cornered and had nowhere left to retreat, she hurled the glass at Qin Rou.

Qin Rou made no move to dodge. Instead, she stepped right into the path of the glass. Smash...

"Rou!" Jian Dan and Xia Mengjiao rushed forward to check on Qin Rou.

Blood streamed from the cut on Qin Rou’s forehead caused by the shattered glass. Jian Dan pulled out a tissue and pressed it against the wound. "Why didn’t you dodge? You could’ve avoided it."

"Exactly! With your skills, how could that glass possibly hit you?" Xia Mengjiao scolded.

Qin Rou took the tissue from Jian Dan’s hand and pressed it against her forehead herself. "I’m fine. It’s just a minor injury." Finally, she turned to the woman with a cold glare. "Since you think prison food is so tasty, why don’t YOU go have a taste? I assure you, it’ll be unforgettable for the rest of your life."

"You—You did it on purpose?"

"On purpose? What are you talking about? I don’t understand."

"You wouldn’t dare! Without me, Fang Yuan’s mother would just have to go home and wait for death."

"Fang Yuan’s mother doesn’t need your concern. Chu Liyuan’s wife—do you really think she wouldn’t be able to afford the medical bills?"

"Chu Liyuan? You mean you’re..." The woman pointed at Qin Rou, her hand trembling uncontrollably.

"I’m not. SHE is." Qin Rou raised her hand and pointed at the nearby Jian Dan.

"You mean SHE’S..." The woman’s eyes began to lose focus.

"Trying to show off in the wrong field—isn’t that exactly what she’s doing? Comparing wealth with Chu Liyuan’s wife. Hah..." Jian Dan chuckled coldly.
