However, Wan Qingsha was, after all, a seasoned shrew who had been in the business world for many years, and she quickly recovered from her shock.
He curled his lip in disdain and sneered, "Hmph, you're just a young girl, yet you have such a big mouth. You think you can go against the Wan family?"
As he spoke, he tilted his head slightly, his eyes full of arrogance, and began to analyze, "Look at you, penniless and powerless. Although Tan Haoyu has some ability, he is nothing but weak in front of my Wan Group! If we really get serious, I can crush you both with a flick of my finger."
Li Siqi stood aside, completely stunned by Zhu Ziqing's actions.
Now that they had come to their senses, they looked at Wan Qingsha's arrogant demeanor and worried that he might retaliate.
He frantically pulled out his phone, his voice trembling, and said, "I... I need to call the police. I can't let him bully people like this!"
Wan Qingsha glanced coldly at Li Siqi and sneered, "Hmph, call the police? You think I'm afraid?"
After uttering those harsh words, he flicked his sleeves, turned around, and strode away, his back still exuding an air of arrogant arrogance.
Zhu Ziqing stared in the direction Wan Qingsha had left, her eyes growing increasingly cold and sharp.
She took a deep breath and slowly said, "Siqi, we can't keep hiding anymore. The more we hide, the more arrogant Wanqingsha will become."
We live in a society governed by the rule of law. If he dares to act recklessly, Tan Haoyu will not stand idly by.
I will never let anyone lead me by the nose again, especially when it comes to Tan Haoyu. I will defend my principles at all costs!
Her voice wasn't loud, but every word was firm and resonant, carrying an undeniable power.
Wan Qingsha's arrogant figure gradually disappeared from sight.
Li Siqi's tense nerves finally relaxed a little.
She rushed forward and hugged Zhu Ziqing tightly, her eyes slightly red, full of heartache and concern, and said, "Ziqing, are you alright? Those two slaps you gave me today were so satisfying! We have to keep up the good work in the future and not let those scumbags bully you anymore. I will always be by your side to support you."
As she spoke, she hugged him tighter, her worry evident in her eyes.
She knew all too well the pain Zhu Ziqing had suffered.
How could she not be worried about this newly emerging threat?
Zhu Ziqing gently patted Li Siqi's back, a determined smile on her lips, and softly replied, "Siqi, don't worry, I'm no longer the weak and easily bullied person I used to be. Now that Haoyu is by my side supporting and accompanying me, no one can hurt me in the slightest. I will not let anyone ruin my life again."
Her eyes held a resolute determination, as if she were announcing her transformation to the world.
After leaving Li Siqi's place, Zhu Ziqing walked home, feeling uneasy.
As she passed a convenience store, she paused and went straight inside.
After carefully searching the shelves, I picked up a bottle of anti-pervert spray and paid for it.
She gripped the spray tightly, thinking to herself: With this, no matter what unexpected situation I encounter, at least I will have a way to deal with it. I have to protect myself, and I can't let Haoyu get hurt because of me.
Only if I am safe and sound can he work hard away from home with peace of mind. I must not let my affairs become a worry for him.
As soon as I got home and opened the door, my dog, Xiaohua, came running towards me like a little cannonball.
It kept circling around Zhu Ziqing, making cute "woo-woo" sounds.
Zhu Ziqing felt a warmth in her heart and bent down to pick up Xiaohua.
He affectionately rubbed its head and said with a smile, "Little Flower, did you miss me? Come on, let's go eat."
As he spoke, he went to the kitchen to prepare food for Xiaohua.
Actually, Zhu Ziqing could have stayed overnight at Li Siqi's house.
But the thought of having no one to take care of her little flower at home made her restless, so she decided to go home.
When feeding Xiaohua, Zhu Ziqing's gaze became exceptionally gentle.
She stared at the little flower, but involuntarily, images of it as a baby surfaced in her mind, as if the little flower had instantly transformed into a baby.
She remembered Xiaohua's chubby little face, waving her little paws and drinking milk in big gulps.
After finishing his drink, he looked up and gave her a sweet smile.
My heart is filled with maternal warmth and happiness, and the corners of my mouth unconsciously turn up.
But as soon as the thought crossed her mind, Zhu Ziqing's cheeks flushed bright red.
She stood up in a panic, scolding herself, "Oh dear, what am I thinking!"
Embarrassed, she quickly ran back to her room to take a shower.
After taking a shower, Zhu Ziqing sat on the edge of the bed, looking at the well-behaved Xiaohua beside her.
A sudden urge welled up inside her, and she wanted to pick up her paintbrush again.
Her gaze fell on Xiaohua, and she smiled slightly, saying softly, "Xiaohua, I haven't drawn in a long time, so I'll draw a portrait of you first. You can't complain that I didn't draw it well, okay?"
Without further ado, Zhu Ziqing found her painting tools.
Little Flower was also very obedient, squatting quietly to the side, staring at her without blinking.
Zhu Ziqing took a deep breath, picked up her paintbrush, and began to sketch on the paper with some awkwardness.
At first, my hands were trembling, and the lines were crooked.
But gradually, she regained some of her sense of style, and the little flowers under her brush began to take shape.
After finishing the drawing, Zhu Ziqing examined it with satisfaction for a moment, then held the painting in front of Xiaohua and said with a smile, "Xiaohua, look, doesn't this look like you?"
Little Flower seemed to understand her words and excitedly chirped twice.
Its tail wagged like a rattle, clearly indicating that it was very satisfied with the painting.
Zhu Ziqing smiled happily, reached out and gently patted Xiaohua's head, saying, "Thank you for liking my painting, Xiaohua."
As evening approached, Zhu Ziqing checked the time, yawned, and said to Xiaohua, "Xiaohua, it's getting late. Let's go to sleep and play again tomorrow."
Little Flower seemed to understand her words, skipping and hopping back to her little nest, and soon fell asleep.
Zhu Ziqing lay in bed, looking at Xiaohua's peaceful sleeping face, a faint smile on her lips, her heart filled with warmth.
At 11 p.m., Zhu Ziqing and Tan Haoyu would usually be fast asleep in each other's arms, lost in sweet dreams.
But tonight, only Zhu Ziqing's lonely figure is in the room.
At this time of year, Tan Haoyu would usually be busy in his study.
Whenever light shines through the crack in the door onto the floor, it casts a long shadow.
Zhu Ziqing lay in bed, tossing and turning, unable to fall asleep, her heart filled with longing for Tan Haoyu.
She stared at the ceiling, and images of Tan Haoyu on his business trip flashed through her mind. She wondered to herself: When he was on a business trip, was he as busy as he was now?
After hesitating for a moment, she decided to call Tan Haoyu and ask about his situation.
