Chapter 171: 137 Wanwan's Counterattack: Heart Execution, Beating the Mountain to Scare the Tiger (2 more)_2
"Actually, Zhuang Rao didn't do it on purpose, so many people are here, just calm down..."
"Did I speak to you?"
Tang Wan raised her eyebrow at her, a smile on her lips.
"What... what?" Jiang Shuyan was stunned.
"Am I talking to you? What are you stepping forward for?"
Jiang Shuyan hadn't expected Tang Wan to suddenly target her...
"No, I just didn't want to see you guys start a dispute." Jiang Shuyan appeared innocently shocked, but inside she was furious-Tang Wan was clearly not playing by the rules.
Tang Wan gave a cold smile, "This isn't the first time, we met outside this afternoon, and she provoked me. You weren't there, that might have nothing to do with you, but what just happened, everyone saw."
"I sat here, did nothing, and she jumped out spewing insults!"
"That aside, she ended up getting physical at the end! As her friend, since you're
so keen on maintaining world peace, why didn't you step in sooner?"
Jiang Shuyan's face turned pale.
Today she was wearing a white dress, naturally looking pure and elegant, dressed impeccably, but now her smile couldn't stay put.
"Tang Wan, this has nothing to do with Shuyan, if you have a problem take it up with me, why are you targeting her!" Zhuang Rao felt she had dragged her good friend into this and naturally had to stand up.
"Am I wrong?" Tang Wan sneered.
"Compared to what I said, what you're saying sounds even more excessive. If she really wanted to break up the fight, why didn't she step forward earlier? I've been slandered to no end, and now when I can't take it anymore and want to argue back for myself, she speaks as if I'm the one bullying you."
"I don't know whether to call you a saint or hypocritical in your actions!"
Jiang Shuyan never expected that she would be the first one Tang Wan would set on fire.
"Miss Tang is right, if they came together, why didn't they intervene earlier?"
"I heard Mrs. Jiang really likes her, it's normal for Jiang Shuyan to have some opinions, everyone has their little schemes."
"Miss Tang really dares to say it."
Jiang Shuyan stood there, her hands clenched, her face turning even redder, at a loss for words to refute Tang Wan's remarks, which completely infuriated Zhuang Rao.
She was already hot-headed and couldn't stand people fanning the flames, seeing her friend implicated made her furious, she raised her hand wanting to hit her.
"Oh my-" someone exclaimed nearby.
Jiang Jiu stood on the side, completely unmoved.
He had long known Tang Wan's prowess, her skills weren't great, but she should be more than enough to handle Zhuang Rao.
Everyone thought Tang Wan was definitely at a disadvantage tonight, after all, Zhuang Rao was known for being brash, but unexpectedly, Tang Wan raised her hand and threw the auction list she was holding, startling Zhuang Rao and causing her body to freeze for a second.
Her cheek followed with intense pain accompanied by the crisp sound of a slap.
"Smack-" just like that.
To create the atmosphere, the room was dimly lit, and nobody had clearly seen who made the move, only seeing Zhuang Rao's face turned to one side.
Tang Wan just stood there, her expression unyielding.
Jiang Shuyan also had never expected Tang Wan would strike; she thought Zhuang Rao got so agitated that Tang Wan was bound to suffer a major loss tonight, but unexpectedly...
"You... you actually dared to hit me?" Zhuang Rao carefully touched her face.
After a brief numbness, half her face burned painfully.
"What's wrong with hitting you?" Tang Wan scoffed. She was dressed in a black gown today, and in an instant, her presence became more imposing, no longer the gentle and virtuous appearance from earlier.
"You started it, I just didn't strike back, and you think it's okay to insult and hit people, but others can't touch you?"
"Do you really think you're more special than anyone else?"
"Once you've hit someone, does it really matter what time it is?"
It was Zhuang Rao who started the fight, and with guilty conscience, she was both anxious and annoyed when she got hit back. Unfortunately for her, it seemed like everyone around was just waiting to see her made fun of, and she didn't know what to do.
"This is our second meeting, when we met this afternoon, you provoked me, saying I'm not worthy of the Jiang Family. I just want to ask, does whether I am worthy or not even concern you?"
"Earlier, it was about me not deserving this seat, so I really want to ask you..."
"This seat belongs to whom? Grandma Jiang arranged for me to sit here. You say I'm unworthy; who exactly are you questioning? Are you suggesting she's senile and can't judge character?”
Hearing this, Zhuang Rao froze.
How did it get to Grandma Jiang? With her status in Beijing now, who would dare
to criticize her!
"Tang Wan, don't accuse me falsely; I never said that!” Zhuang Rao raised her voice as if to find some courage.
"Though you didn't say it outright, it was implied!"
Tang Wan smiled at her mockingly, a smile that clearly didn't reach her eyes,
which felt chillingly cold despite the warmth.
"You keep saying I shouldn't stay with the Jiangs, that I should know my place and not overreach. Tell me, in your eyes, are all the Jiangs fools or just intellectually impaired?"
"I'm just a girl in her twenties, do you think I possess incredible skills, or that I'm
such a great actress to deceive the entire Jiang Family?"
"You think I've played tricks, which actually implies that you believe the Jiangs
are incompetent!"
Such a heavy accusation stunned Zhuang Rao.
When had she ever disparaged the Jiang Family like that, and how did the
conversation turn to this?

"There's another thing I want to ask
I dont deserve this
you since you say I don't deserve this seat. Maybe Neally don't..." Tang Wan said, laughing at herself. The content is on Novelxo.org! Read
the latest chapter there!
"Then let me ask you, if not me, then who deserves to sit here?"
"I have no grudges against you, I really can't think of why you would target me. Is
it because I was just born annoying, or..."
"Do you want to stand up for someone?"
With those words, Jiang Shuyan was once again thrust into the limelight.
Everyone knew Zhuang Rao and she were close; suddenly targeting Tang Wan
seemed bizarre and it could only be connected to Jiang Shuyan.

"Sister Tang, what do you mean by
mediang
that? Are you suspecting me. Shuyan dug her nails into her flesh, choked with anger but without
recourse. The content is on

"I'm just proposing a hypothesis because I really want to know, in Miss Zhuang's
eyes, if I don't deserve this seat, then who does?"
Heart Execution!
She wasn't really asking Zhuang Rao, but rather targeting Jiang Shuyan.
Known to knock on the mountain to shock the tiger, but here, she was directly
hitting the tiger!
"Today, even if I don't sit in this position, even if I don't attend this auction,
whoever wants this seat can come and take it."
People looked at each other, impressed by Tang Wan's assertiveness.
This seat is now too hot to handle, no one dares to touch it!

Meanwhile, in the surveillance room - since the auction hall also had
cameras - every move inside was visible in real-time, and Jiang Jinsang hadn't expected that just after stepping out for a little while, Zhuang
Rao would have gone looking for trouble. The content is on Novelxo.org! Read the latest chapter there!
However, it seemed like she was the one at a disadvantage.
"I'll go there first." Jiang Jinsang said, and turned to leave.
Jiang Yanting's fingers suddenly tensed, not believing the brief glimpse he caught
was just his eyes playing tricks...
She must be inside!
