Ah Da was shocked by her imposing manner. He caught her cue and went to get someone in the shop.

Shan Wu walked out. His face was flushed, and his eyes were burning with rage.

He had been holding it in for too long. He had long wanted to beat Cheng Ping to death.

“Shan Wu, I’ll help you fulfill my husband’s promise. I’ve brought the person here today. You can do whatever you want.” Meng Ying sat back down.

Shan Wu’s hatred was overflowing. The veins on his forehead bulged as he stared at Cheng Ping with his bloodshot eyes and walked over step by step.

Cheng Ping hurriedly hid behind Cheng Xiangyao. “Dad!”

Cheng Xiangyao protected his son and questioned Shan Wu, “Who are you?”

“I am Shan Mei’s younger brother, Shan Wu.” Shan Wu stared at Cheng Ping with eyes full of hatred, causing Cheng Ping’s scalp to turn numb.

Cheng Ping was frightened. “I didn’t cause your sister’s death. Your sister was foolish. I wanted to make her my woman. I even gave her money so that she wouldn’t suffer. She was foolish to commit suicide. It’s none of my business!”

Shan Wu gritted his teeth. “Do you think you’re so great just because you have some money? My sister is only 23 years old, and you’ve left her with no choice but to jump! I’m going to kill you and avenge my sister!”

Shan Wu rushed over and pushed Cheng Ping to the ground.

Cheng Xiangyao looked at Shan Wu with a condescending attitude. “Back then, it was your sister who jumped off the building herself. We offered to pay two million dollars, but you refused. Even if you were to sue us, the fact that your sister has committed suicide still has nothing to do with my son.”

Shan Wu’s eyes were filled with tears and hatred. It was this group of lawless people that had caused his sister’s death. His father had died due to a car accident while taking care of his sister’s matters, and his mother, who was already in poor health, could not take the blow. She did not last long with the grief and pain she felt both emotionally and physically.

A perfectly fine family had fallen apart because of this scum.

Shan Wu got up and rushed forward again.

He had to get justice today.

Cheng Xiangyao’s lackeys did not need much effort to take down Shan Wu.

Shan Wu was beaten badly, but he had no intention of giving up.

In the past, Zhang Wei had been used to bullying others with his power. Now that he saw Shan Wu being beaten up by the Cheng Family, he couldn’t help but take pity on him.

“Sis, aren’t we going to help?”

Meng Ying didn’t say anything. She just sat there and sipped her tea.

Ah Da couldn’t figure out what Meng Ying was thinking.

Didn’t she say that he would help Shan Wu avenge his sister?

Now that Shan Wu was beaten up like this, who was she actually helping?

Cheng Xiangyao had thought that Meng Ying was going to help him judging from what she had said, but it seemed like she had sent him here to be beaten up.

Ha, he was right. It seemed like the woman didn’t have a strong background. How dare she go against him?

At that moment, he was glad that this woman had chosen a good location. The Lan Yun Clubhouse was a land of wealth. As long as money was involved, killing and dumping of the corpse would be both taken care of.

Cheng Xiangyao pulled Cheng Ping to the side and watched his men beat up Shan Wu.

Zhang Wei frowned deeply, while Zhou Yang did not dare to breathe too loudly.

Look how badly he was beaten up!

If this continued, he might really die.

Shan Wu got up, and that bunch of people took turns to punch him in the face again.

However, this time, the fist did not hit him. Instead, the person who had attacked covered his eyes and fell backwards.

Everyone was shocked.

The cup in Meng Ying’s hand was gone, but there was a cup at the feet of the person who had fallen backwards. It was the exact cup that she was drinking tea with earlier.

Ah Da narrowed his eyes.

Cheng Xiangyao was alarmed.

“Shan Wu,” Meng Ying shouted. “Are you dead?”

Shan Wu staggered to his feet. His face was covered in so much blood such that one could not see his facial features clearly anymore.

He held his breath. “I can’t die before we get our revenge.”

“Very good.” Meng Ying crossed her legs and pointed at Cheng Ping. “He’s right there. Go for it. I can guarantee that nobody will stop you.”

Shan Wu looked at Cheng Ping with his blood-covered eyes filled with intense hatred. He dragged a chair and walked towards Cheng Ping.

Shan Wu looked like a malicious ghost that came from hell to claim someone’s life. That murderous aura and the blood all over his body were horrifying.

Cheng Ping hid behind Cheng Xiangyao, afraid to even breathe loudly.

With a glance from Cheng Xiangyao, the group of people rushed forward.

However, this time, no one was able to get close to Shan Wu.

Meng Ying was extremely fast. Before anyone could see clearly, she had already defeated everyone and cleared a path for Shan Wu.

Everyone was shocked and scared.

Meng Ying crossed her arms and stood behind Shan Wu to support him.

“Dad, Dad…” Cheng Ping’s legs turned to jelly as he clung onto Cheng Xiangyao.

Cheng Xiangyao was taken aback as well.

He had specially brought along his best bodyguard as he was afraid that they would get into a fight. Who knew that he would be defeated so easily by that woman?

“I…”

“If you dare to hurt my son, I…”

Before Cheng Xiangyao could finish his sentence, Shan Wu raised his chair and smashed it at Cheng Ping.

Cheng Ping howled.

Bang—

The chairs were smashed one after another, but Shan Wu did not stop.

Cheng Ping was beaten until he was on his last breath. The door was pushed open.

A man who looked even more charming than a woman walked in wearing a dark blue suit.

Meng Ying retreated to Ah Da’s side and asked softly, “Who is this?”

Ah Da did not expect to see Lan Chen today.

“The boss here.”

Lan Chen said gently, “I heard that someone is causing trouble here.”

Looking at the scene in the room, the corner of his long and narrow eyes lifted slightly. “So bloody?”

Meng Ying stared at the man. ‘Is he a woman disguised as a man? But he has an Adam’s apple. How is he so good-looking?’

Ah Da stopped Shan Wu before he finally fainted from exhaustion and his injury.

Cheng Xiangyao hugged Cheng Ping, who was beaten so badly that even his parents would not be able to recognize him. He pointed angrily at Meng Ying. “You, you… The Cheng family will not let you off!”

Meng Ying was disdainful. Before she could say anything, the beautiful man spoke.

“Boss Cheng, you came here to cause trouble and made my place reeked of blood. Who should I settle this with?” Lan Chen glanced at Cheng Xiangyao.

“I’m not the one causing trouble. This woman is.” Cheng Xiangyao pointed at Meng Ying. “As you can see, she got someone to beat up my son!”

Lan Chen, on the other hand, was gentle. “Boss Cheng, do you take me for a fool? My people clearly saw that you were the one who brought your men here aggressively. Are you saying that they are causing trouble just because you couldn’t beat them?”

“You…” Cheng Xiangyao was rendered speechless.

“Didn’t you think that you could do whatever you want just because the Lan Yun Clubhouse had the ability to help collect someone’s corpse?” Lan Chen spoke in such a gentle tone that nobody would think that he was a person with a temper.

However, as he stood there with a feminine aura, he gave off an unfriendly feeling.

Cheng Xiangyao was speechless. That was indeed what he had thought when he came.

Lan Chen said, “How about I help you collect your son’s corpse?”

Cheng Xiangyao was so frightened that he hurriedly carried Cheng Ping and ran outside.

His men were about to chase after them when Lan Chen stopped them. “Forget it. Get someone to clean up this place. We still have to receive guests later on.”

Lan Chen looked at Shan Wu who had fainted on the ground and asked Meng Ying, “Do you need us to collect your friend’s body?”

How beautiful.

He was an extremely good-looking man.

If he were a woman, he would definitely be able to seduce many men.

Meng Ying looked at Lan Chen without hiding her feelings.

Lan Chen knew how unconventional his looks were. Others only dared to look at him briefly, but this woman was really bold.

“You two, send him to the hospital.” Meng Ying ordered Zhang Wei and Zhou Yang, who were stunned.

They quickly took Shan Wu away.
