Chapter 155 - 155: The Final Time
Nan Yan raised an eyebrow and kicked the chair next to her, sending it tumbling over.
“Mr. An, quite fierce, aren’t you?”
It seemed she needed to redefine the audacity of this family. At this point, they still treated her as someone they could order around. Perhaps her previous mildness had misled them.
The four people in the living room were all startled by the loud noise.
An Yaoqing’s face turned almost iron-gray with anger when he saw her actions.
She dared to challenge him like this in front of Mr. and Mrs. Yin!
This made him, who valued face so much, feel like he had been slapped in the face.
“Nan Yan, have you gone crazy?” Lu Lehua exclaimed, “Are you trying to rebel?” Unbelievable!
She used to merely dare to talk back to them, but now she even dared to kick a chair like this in front of them.
Nan Yan licked her lips carelessly, her eyes showing a smile. Yet, the smile did not reach her eyes. “How about this, Mr. An? Should I tear down this house?” “Then it can truly be considered rebellion.”
“Nan Yan!” Lu Lehua’s face alternated between pale and red as he pounded on the table. Unfortunately, she hit it so hard that there was a sharp “crack,” and she ended up with a fractured wrist.
Nan Yan’s eyes sparkled with mockery.
Indeed, you reap what you sow.
Lu Lehua screamed in pain, beads of cold sweat forming on his forehead.
With the interruption, An Yaoqing regained some of his composure.
Now was not the time for this. The most important thing was to get Nan Yan to sign the forgiveness agreement so that An Family and Yin Family could cooperate, securing the 50 million investment.
Although 50 million wasn’t a lot for him, it was a gesture of goodwill from Yin Family to him.
“Nan Yan, if you still want to stay with An Family, then sign the agreement. You must withdraw from Zhide Academy, and I’ll arrange for you to attend another private school. Do you understand?” An Yaoqing said sternly. “Seems like you’ve all taken my words lightly.”
Nan Yan’s tone seemed casual, yet the cold glint in her eyes made it feel oppressive.
“I’ll tell you this one more time—there’s no connection between you and me.
From now on, don’t refer to me as a member of An Family.”
“An Family isn’t even worthy.”
“And you guys,” Nan Yan looked at Mr. and Mrs. Yin, “So you’re from the Yin
Family? Threatening me? Let’s see who ends up begging on their knees.”
“I’ve said what needed to be said. I’m done here. If you dare to bother me again, don’t blame me for not being polite.”
She had already been quite lenient with them.
She wasn’t that kind of person. She wouldn’t let them trouble her time and time again.
Nan Yan finished speaking and turned to leave.
Seeing her disobedience, An Yaoqing’s anger flared again. He shouted, “Stop her!”
At this moment, on the upper floor, An Zhici and his brothers heard the commotion and came down as well.
Seeing a group of bodyguards surrounding Nan Yan while her parents looked furious and pained, they were momentarily confused about what had happened.
“What’s going on?”
An Zhici and An Siting had returned temporarily because Grandpa was no longer in danger and wasn’t in a hurry to leave.
An Family had experienced so many incidents that, as members of the family, they had to resolve them.
“Nan Yan, if you don’t sign this settlement agreement, you won’t be allowed to leave An Family today!” An Yaoqing said as he stared at Nan Yan.
However, in the next second, they all received a tremendous visual shock.
A delicate and frail-looking girl, whose arm seemed like it could break with just a twist, was acting so deftly, and so ruthlessly!
Even if they were to claim they could handle it, they couldn’t help but doubt it themselves.
They had witnessed it firsthand. The girl, with a seemingly fragile arm, sent all those towering bodyguards sprawling on the ground, rolling and wailing. None of them could even stand up.
After taking down the last one, there were two drops of blood on Nan Yan’s fist. It wasn’t hers.
She crouched down, wiped the blood from her knuckles onto the clothes of the nearest bodyguard, and then looked up at them.
An oppressive aura emanated from her, giving her a somewhat sinister air. Her eyes turned crimson at the corners, exuding bone-chilling coldness.
When had she become like this?
An Yaoqing and Lu Lehua were taken aback by her ferociousness.
They even began to question whether this was really their daughter.
Wasn’t this the girl who used to be timid, who even hesitated to speak loudly?
Nan Yan looked coldly at them and spoke slowly, “A bunch of garbage dares to block my path?”
“Or, do you want to come at me yourselves?”
An Yaoqing felt a chill run down his spine as he met her gaze. He almost couldn’t bring himself to look her in the eye.
An Zhici saw the tense atmosphere and spoke up, “Nan Yan, it’s wrong for Dad to do this, and he shouldn’t have forced you. Calm down for a moment. Why don’t we all sit down and talk?”
“No need for that.’
“It’s my final act of leniency. If there’s a next time, I won’t show mercy, and driving An Family into bankruptcy won’t be difficult.”
Leaving these words behind, Nan Yan turned and left An Family.
If it weren’t for the face of Grandpa, she would have actually considered driving An Family into bankruptcy.
However, for the sake of Grandpa and Fourth Brother, she might reconsider.
Allowing Fourth Brother to inherit An Family was also an option…
After Nan Yan left, the atmosphere in An Family’s living room turned eerie.
Mr. and Mrs. Yin could also see that Nan Yan was completely beyond An Family’s control.
Seeing her arrogant and fierce demeanor, it was nothing like her old self.
However, after this incident, Mr. and Mrs. Yin had come to a conclusion. Trying to get her to sign the settlement agreement obediently wouldn’t work anymore.
It seemed they would have to use other means!
Seeing Mr. and Mrs. Yin leave without saying a word, An Yaoqing understood well. The cooperation had fallen through.
“This troublesome girl!”
An Yaoqing gritted his teeth, “I’m going to find Grandpa and make sure she’s kicked out of An Family!”
She was relying on Grandpa’s favor, wasn’t she?
An Mulin couldn’t help but question, “Dad, what are you doing? No matter what, Nan Yan is still a member of An Family. We owe her so much. Shouldn’t we treat her properly?”
He used to dislike Nan Yan, and even found her annoying.
But after learning the truth, he often regretted how he had treated her before. He wanted to make amends and treat her well, just like Fourth Brother.
He just couldn’t figure out how to face her for a moment. He couldn’t bring himself to do it.
He couldn’t understand why his parents could still treat her like this, considering everything that had happened.
Could it be that they genuinely didn’t know they were wrong?
“She should give us a chance too!” An Yaoqing’s tone was bitter. “Did you not see her malicious expression? Did you not hear what she said?” “She doesn’t even consider us as her parents.”
“Well, that’s because you didn’t treat her as your daughter first..”
