Chapter 221: The Princess’s Domineering Revenge

Only then did Xia Wanyuan look at Ruan Nian and meet a pair of eyes that revealed obvious lust.

Ruan Nian’s parents did not control their son’s actions at all. Instead, they defended him.

“Our son is young and insensible. You’re already an adult, don’t be calculative with him.”

With his parents backing him, Ruan Nian became even more arrogant. “We were just casually sparring. Who would have thought that Xia Yu’s body was so weak? You can’t blame me for this.”

“Bullsh*t! If you didn’t bring more than ten people to beat me up…” Halfway through his sentence, Xia Yu received the strict gaze of the dean and retracted his hand.” beat me up together, would I have let a piece of trash like you beat me up?! ”

Ruan Nian had actually planned this for a long time.

After Xia Yu entered Cat’s Tooth Live-stream, he had been unstoppable and had become the most popular broadcaster on the Cat’s Tooth Platform. His skills and looks had attracted a large number of Ruan Nian’s fans.

Initially, at Di Fan University, everyone knew that he, Ruan Nian, was a very popular broadcaster. In the end, he became Xia Yu’s accompaniment. When everyone spoke of Ruan Nian, they felt like they were watching a joke. Ruan Nian hated him to the core.

Coupled with the recent broadcast of the drama “The Long Ballad”, everyone online praised Xia Wanyuan. Ruan Yingyu, who was originally the female lead, was ignored. Ruan Yingyu often cursed Xia Wanyuan at home, making Ruan Nian hate the siblings even more.

Hence, that morning, Ruan Nian had contacted his brothers in advance to wait for Xia Yu at the court. Knowing that Xia Yu was defending Xia Wanyuan, Ruan Nian said a few dirty words about Xia Wanyuan, which immediately ignited Xia Yu’s anger.

This was what Ruan Nian wanted. After all, Xia Yu was the one who had started the commotion at the school. He was just defending himself.

Xia Yu and his roommates couldn’t compare to the other party’s dozen or so people. However, Xia Yu was ruthless and had the wildness of a wolf, which made the other party suffer quite a bit.

Although the price was Xia Yu himself being injured.

Xia Wanyuan saw Ruan Nian’s expression and roughly guessed what had happened. She stepped forward and pulled Xia Yu’s hand. The bruises on his arm were shocking.

Xia Wanyuan’s expression instantly turned cold.

“It’s nothing. It’s just a small injury. If they didn’t have so many people, I would have definitely beaten him until he spat out his dog teeth.” Xia Yu retracted his hand nonchalantly. Because it affected his wound, he frowned in pain.

“Why are you hitting people the moment you open your mouth? Parents like you must…” Seeing Xia Yu start talking about the fight again, the dean tried to persuade Xia Wanyuan. However, unexpectedly, Xia Wanyuan suddenly moved halfway.

Ruan Nian was still looking at the full curves of Xia Wanyuan’s chest lustfully.

Unexpectedly, Xia Wanyuan suddenly turned around and kicked him off the chair.

No one present had expected Xia Wanyuan to suddenly do this. Ruan Nian’s parents reacted and hurriedly pulled Xia Wanyuan. However, Xia Wanyuan was much faster than them and pushed Ruan Nian’s arms inwards.

Ruan Nian clearly heard the sound of bones breaking in his arm and immediately screamed.

“Stop screaming. If you continue screaming, it won’t be as simple as a fracture. If you don’t want your hand anymore, continue screaming.”

When she entered, she saw that Xia Yu was covered in injuries, while Ruan Nian was fair and clean. There were no wounds at all. Since he was the one who started the matter, she should make him suffer.

Xia Wanyuan knew her limits. It hurt a lot to have his arm broken, but the injury was not serious. It was just that it would take a hundred days for Ruan Nian to properly use his hands.

Hearing Xia Wanyuan’s cold voice, Ruan Nian hurriedly shut his mouth. However, the pain of his bones breaking was practically drilling into his heart. Ruan Nian’s face was filled with hideous pain.

“Is there still any law?!!!” Ruan Nian’s parents were shocked by Xia Wanyuan’s actions. They wanted to go forward but were afraid that Ruan Nian’s arm would hurt.

“Apologize to Xia Yu,” Xia Wanyuan’s voice sounded.

“I’m sorry.” Ruan Nian was in a daze from the pain. He just wanted Xia Wanyuan to let him off quickly, so he did whatever Xia Wanyuan said.

Xia Yu was stunned by Xia Wanyuan’s actions. However, he had to admit that he felt that his sister was really cool.

“You’re already an adult, yet you still use ignorance as an excuse. No wonder parents like you raised such a son.” Xia Wanyuan glanced coldly at Ruan Nian’s parents, making one’s heart turn cold.

“Teacher, I’ll give you an explanation after I figure out what happened. I’ll take my younger brother away first.” Xia Wanyuan greeted the dean and gestured for Xia Yu to follow her.

“This, this, this…” The dean was first shocked by Xia Wanyuan’s beauty, then shocked by her valiant actions, and could not react in time.

He looked at Ruan Nian and his family, who were flustered and crying.

He was too worried. The dean felt that the Mediterranean area above his head had expanded greatly.

“Sister Xia.”

Su Mei and the rest had been waiting outside the office. They were also there when the fight broke out. However, that group of people was specially targeting Xia Yu and were targeting him. They did not have much combat ability and were completely ignored by the other party.

“Mm, hello. I’ll bring Xia Yu back to treat his wound. I’ll treat you guys to a meal when I have time.”

“Sister Xia, this is for you.” Su Mei took out a USB from his pocket. “I started recording since I met Ruan Nian. This is evidence of his provocation.”

Ruan Nian used to have a dark history of bullying others because he was a broadcaster and had some fans.

Su Mei had always hated Ruan Nian. Furthermore, as Xia Yu’s live-stream became more and more popular, Ruan Nian often mentioned Xia Yu during his live-stream. The sourness in his words filled the live-stream.

Hence, when he met Ruan Nian on the field, Su Mei deliberately paid attention and turned on the recording button on his phone. He recorded Ruan Nian’s words because he was afraid that Ruan Nian would play the blame game in the end.

“Okay, thank you.” Xia Wanyuan took the USB and smiled. Her beauty made the boys in front of her feel embarrassed.

“Sister, you’re too cool. Where did you learn those moves? Teach me.” On the car back to the manor, he recalled Xia Wanyuan’s domineering attitude just now. Although there was a wound on his face, it could not hide the look in Xia Yu’s eyes.

When he was young, he had always been the one who scolded others for being a bastard. Today was the first time someone had stood in front of him to defend him and help him fight back.

“There’s no need to force yourself to be strong next time.” Xia Yu was disappointed by Xia Wanyuan’s words. Sister still blamed me for doing it.

“If you can’t win, it won’t be too late to return and get reinforcements before fighting back,” Xia Wanyuan added. Xia Yu’s eyes returned to their usual brightness.

“Mm!” Xia Yu’s eyes lit up as he nodded at Xia Wanyuan.

Meanwhile, the Ruan family was in an uproar because of her precious grandson and son’s injury. When Ruan Yingyu heard about this, she got her father to call the police.

Before Xia Wanyuan returned to the manor, the relevant agents called.

Uncle Wang hung up the phone in confusion.

What did Madam do??

After a moment of confusion, Uncle Wang immediately reported this to Jun Shiling.

Chapter 222: The Princess Was Caught?

Ruan Nian had never suffered like this since he was young. He screamed loudly in the hospital.

The police received the call. Under the deliberate exaggeration of the Ruan family, the police hurriedly stepped out and intercepted Xia Wanyuan and Xia Yu’s car at a traffic light.

If they were a step late, Xia Wanyuan’s car would have entered the Jun family’s protection and they would not have been able to find any traces.

“Are you Xia Wanyuan? We’ve received a report that you’re suspected of intentional injury. Please come with us.” The police gestured for the chauffeur to open the car window. He was caught off guard by Xia Wanyuan’s face.

How could a young lady who looked so gentle and weak get reported for deliberately injuring someone else? The police were confused.

“I’ll go with you. My younger brother is injured. Let him go back and bandage it first,” Xia Wanyuan replied calmly and got out of the car.

Xia Yu wanted to follow Xia Wanyuan worriedly, but Xia Wanyuan stopped him with a glance. He could only sit in the car obediently.

The police car stopped in front of the traffic light, attracting a crowd.

The moment Xia Wanyuan’s outstanding appearance appeared, it triggered a heated discussion.

The drama “The Long Ballad” had a certain degree of fame. A few steps after Xia Wanyuan alighted and got into the police car, she was recognized as the Heavenly Spirit Princess Shen Pei. Everyone hurriedly took out their phones to take photos.

“I actually met the Heavenly Spirit Princess Xia Wanyuan on the way today, but what did she do? She actually left with the police car.”

The accompanying picture was of Xia Wanyuan following the police into the police car.

[ The person in front watching the show, did she commit a crime? Don’t tell me she’s taking drugs? She looks a little thin. ]

[ The person in front, what’s the matter? Have you ever seen a person who takes drugs look so rosy and energetic? It’s fine if you don’t have eyes, but you don’t have brains either. ]

[ Fans of the novel are just passing by. Please separate the two dimensions from the three dimensions. Thank you. The Heavenly Spirit Princess is not Xia Wanyuan. Don’t mix the two together and give us fans some respect. ]

[ It’s a little far. Xia Wanyuan is really good-looking. The quality of the blogger’s phone can’t hide her outstanding temperament. She must look so good in person. ]

This Weibo post that praised Xia Wanyuan for her beauty received a reply from the blogger. “I can tell you one hundred percent that she’s super good-looking in person. She’s ten thousand times better looking than the photos. I swear I’ve never seen such a good-looking person in my life!!”

After spending so much public relations fees, they had still not been able to shake Xia Wanyuan’s status at all. Strawberry Entertainment had basically given up on Ruan Yingyu.

Unexpectedly, this excellent opportunity was delivered. The public relations department immediately contacted many marketing accounts.

The search term for Xia Wanyuan was originally “I am a Big Star”, but it suddenly became “Xia Wanyuan has been arrested”.

The marketing accounts posted many photos of Xia Wanyuan getting into the police car online and started rumors.

“According to sources, Xia Wanyuan was arrested for taking drugs…”

“According to someone… Xia Wanyuan…”

…….

Although there was no evidence and only “rumors”, it still caused a huge commotion. After all, the entertainment industry had never tolerated celebrities taking drugs.

Various guesses rose into the air as more and more people discussed. Many people took the opportunity to gossip about Xia Wanyuan’s past scandals.

Just as everyone was gradually getting angry at Xia Wanyuan, Ruan Yingyu posted on Weibo, pushing this anger to its peak.

Chapter 223: Locked in the Interrogation Room

Ruan Yingyu knew what her younger brother was like. Ruan Nian often played with a group of young masters in society and had often used their power to bully others.

However, this time, Ruan Nian called Ruan Yingyu and swore that Xia Yu had attacked first. Even the dean of the school thought that Xia Yu was the culprit. Only then did Ruan Yingyu relax and promise Ruan Nian that she would give him an explanation.

@ Ruan Yingyu: “@ Xia Wanyuan, as a junior, I’ve always been very respectful to you. When we were on the production team, I would even buy tea and desserts for everyone every day. But I really didn’t expect you to treat my younger brother like this!! It was just two children who had a conflict on the court. Why did an adult like you get involved and beat up my younger brother to such a state?!! (Crying) I had a good relationship with my younger brother since we were young. Now that I see Nian Nian lying in the hospital and living a life worse than death, my heart aches!!! You must give me an explanation!”

There were two photos attached to Weibo. One of them was an x-ray photo of the hospital, and one could clearly see the signs of bones breaking. The other was a direct photo of Ruan Nian’s arm. It was especially swollen, and it looked painful.

The Chinese entertainment industry was relatively more restrained. There were very few celebrities who personally went to quarrel like the foreign celebrities. No matter how deep the conflicts were usually, they could still live with dignity.

Ruan Yingyu’s direct call for Xia Wanyuan attracted many spectators.

When everyone saw Ruan Yingyu’s Weibo photos, they were all shocked.

[ Oh my god!!! Does the law still exist? Xia Wanyuan is too cruel! ]

[ I can’t believe it. One second, I was still watching her quietly sitting on the sofa and eating potato chips. She was so quiet and gentle, but the next second, she actually let me see her beat up her younger brother to this extent. That’s too scary. ]

[ Yu’er, don’t cry. Our hearts ache whenever you cry. Brother, get well quickly. Xia Wanyuan will be punished by the law. How can a woman be so cruel? ]

[ It hurts to watch. Xia Wanyuan has really gone too far! Isn’t that ‘I’m a Big Star’ doing voting? Let’s go and vote for her opponent and eliminate her in the first round. We can’t let such a disgusting person advance. ]

Everyone responded to this comment. As they denounced Xia Wanyuan, they voted for her other opponents.

Soon, everyone voted for her opponent on the first Weibo episode of “I am a Big Star”, leaving Xia Wanyuan behind.

At the same time, the trending topic of “Xia Wanyuan hitting Ruan Yingyu’s younger brother” was pushed up. Together with the trending topic “Xia Wanyuan was arrested”, everyone finally understood why Xia Wanyuan had gotten into the police car.

The comments were filled with applause and cheers. They all hoped that the police would punish Xia Wanyuan severely.

Tang Yin and Chen Yun were dealing with the potato chips company when they suddenly changed their tune and said that Xia Wanyuan’s image was bad and they wanted to stop the cooperation.

Chen Yun clicked into the trending topic skillfully and indeed saw the trending topic that made his eyes go blank.

“Oh my god, how did she beat up Ruan Yingyu’s younger brother??”

“Let’s go to the police station to understand the situation first. Wanyuan isn’t such an impulsive person.”

“Okay, let’s go.”

After receiving a call from Uncle Wang, Jun Shiling stopped the meeting and rushed to the police station with Lin Jing.

————

“Come here and sit properly. Tell me, why did you hit the child?” In the police station, the young policeman asked routinely.

“He started it first,” Xia Wanyuan said calmly.

The young policeman looked up and met a face that was as cold as snow. His ears turned red. “You, do you have any evidence? Even if he attacked first, would it be right to fight? You can call our police.”

“There was no time. He deserves a beating.”

“…” The young policeman didn’t have much experience. He was momentarily speechless by Xia Wanyuan’s words.

——

“His second uncle, look, it’s this person who beat our Nian Nian up. You must seek justice for us.”

Just as the young policeman and Xia Wanyuan were in a deadlock, Father Ruan and a middle-aged policeman walked over.

“Deputy Captain Ruan.” The young policeman stood up and bowed. He looked at Xia Wanyuan worriedly.

This Deputy Captain Ruan… His reputation in the police department was not good, but he was old and had some background. Normally, no one dared to offend him.

“Bring her to the interrogation room,” Ruan Dan pointed at Xia Wanyuan and instructed the young policeman.

“Deputy Captain Ruan, this isn’t appropriate. She’s not a suspect.” A look of disapproval flashed across the young policeman’s eyes.

“This person has a stubborn mouth and the nature of her attacks is bad. If I say you can send her over, you can. Cut the crap.”

Since he had some authority, Ruan Dan, who was used to ordering his subordinates around, felt that he had lost face in front of Father Ruan when he saw the young policeman not cooperating. Hence, he spoke to the young policeman more sternly.

“Come with me.” The young policeman had just entered the police station. Although he was extremely disapproving, he had no choice but to follow Ruan Dan’s orders.

Xia Wanyuan looked calm.

She was well-versed in the ways of politics and naturally knew that even a police station that symbolized fairness would be a little dirty.

Since the Ruan family dared to call the police even though they knew that their son had caused trouble, they must have the confidence to do so at the police station.

After what had happened to Supervisor Jin the previous time, Xia Wanyuan had Uncle Wang prepare an extremely hidden miniature recorder for her. Now, Ruan Dan’s words were recorded without a word.

Xia Wanyuan obediently followed the young policeman into the interrogation room.

This place was completely different from the outside. When she was outside taking her statement, there was only a table between the police and her. Both parties were still on equal footing.

Meanwhile, in this interrogation room, there was a chair in an empty room. In front of it was a large lamp, and in front of the room was a relatively high table. The police and the person being interrogated had a clear relationship.

“I’m not a criminal. Why are you interrogating me here?” Xia Wanyuan’s eyes were filled with panic and fear. Her voice even trembled a little. One look and one could tell that she was a little girl who did not know anything about the world.

“It’ll be done in a while.” Ruan Dan was amused by Xia Wanyuan’s fear. As expected, her calmness was just an act.

After dismissing the young policeman, Ruan Dan walked to Xia Wanyuan. “Young lady, you have to pay the price for hitting someone from my Ruan family. Go in and confess as soon as possible, then you won’t suffer so much. If you don’t confess, you’ll suffer.”

With that, Ruan Dan pushed Xia Wanyuan into the interrogation room.

Chapter 224: Hero Saving the Beauty

The moment Xia Wanyuan entered, the light in the interrogation room lit up. Xia Wanyuan had never understood the modern police system, so this was the first time she was illuminated by such a bright light. She was stunned for a moment and narrowed her eyes in discomfort.

“Tell me, why did you cause trouble and deliberately hurt Ruan Nian?” Ruan Dan knocked on the table hard. The heavy sound of a blow echoed in the empty interrogation room.

“I’m not a criminal. What right do you have to lock me up here?”

At that moment, the Xia Wanyuan in Ruan Dan’s eyes was no longer as frightened as before. Instead, she was very calm. Confusion flashed across Ruan Dan’s eyes, but when he thought of the three million Ruan Baoer’s father had promised him, he suppressed the uneasiness in his heart.

“Xia Wanyuan, I’ll be honest with you. I’ve temporarily switched off the camera here. You’re so tender. If I give you a sentence or something, you won’t be able to take it. Do you see this piece of paper? Sign on it and I’ll let you go.”

Ruan Dan had been outstanding in the field of criminal investigation in the early years. Now that he was speaking to Xia Wanyuan in a domineering manner, if it was an ordinary person who was intimidated under such an environment, their mental defenses would definitely collapse.

Unexpectedly, Xia Wanyuan did not look afraid at all.

Even though he sat high and Xia Wanyuan sat low, Xia Wanyuan’s indifferent gaze made him look like he was the one who was at the bottom.

“Speak!” Ruan Dan touched the baton beside him and knocked it hard on the table, causing his hand to turn numb.

Xia Wanyuan’s eyes turned cold. She entered a state of alertness and put down her crossed legs.

Get lost.” Xia Wanyuan’s red lips parted slightly as she spat out two words. Her gaze carried a sharpness as she pointed at Ruan Dan.

“I think you’re refusing…” Ruan Dan was angered by Xia Wanyuan and stood up.

Bang!! The door of the interrogation room was kicked open. Ruan Dan stopped midway and looked at the door angrily. Who was so blind to dare to come over at this time?

In the end, he saw an extremely cold man in a suit walk in. The light at the door was a little dim, so he could not see the person’s face.

“Who are you?” Ruan Dan roared.

However, he did not expect that the cold man did not even glance at him and walked straight to Xia Wanyuan.

Seeing Xia Wanyuan frown slightly due to the strong light, Jun Shiling’s eyes turned as cold as ice. Lin Jing walked to the side and switched off the light.

What are you doing?!” Ruan Dan was about to speak when the cold man, who had his back facing him, suddenly turned around.

Seeing that handsome face, Ruan Dan was first stunned, then the fear in his eyes grew.

Isn’t this the richest man in China, Jun Shiling!!! He’s someone I can’t afford to provoke in my life!

Jun Shiling’s eyes turned cold when he saw Ruan Dan’s baton.

“You want to hit her?”

“I, I…” No matter how stupid Ruan Dan was, he could tell from Jun Shiling’s expression that he was extremely angry.

Didn’t they say that Xia Wanyuan was just a little celebrity whose family had gone bankrupt?! Why was she related to Jun Shiling?!

“CEO Jun, I’m sorry. I just found out that you were here.” A middle-aged man rushed in.

“Minister Zhou.” Jun Shiling nodded slightly at the person.

“Minister Zhou?” Ruan Dan watched his superior appear and thought to himself, ‘It’s over.’

He felt sick and couldn’t even hold the baton.

Chapter 225: Counterattack

“Minister Zhou, you have to properly manage this police station. You have to explain this private criminal hall.”

“Yes, yes, yes. I wasn’t strict enough. Don’t worry, I’ll definitely investigate this matter thoroughly.”

Only then did Jun Shiling turn around and help Xia Wanyuan up. “Let’s go back.”

“Mm.” Xia Wanyuan stood up. She had been illuminated by the strong light for too long and was a little dizzy, so she walked with Jun Shiling’s help.

However, when she reached the door, Xia Wanyuan suddenly stood still. “I was illuminated by that light for ten minutes.” Xia Wanyuan pointed at the big lights in the house that had already been turned off.

“Ruan Dan setting up the punishment hall is a crime worthy of its name. We will interrogate him here.” For Minister Wang to be able to sit in this position, his ability to observe people’s expressions was naturally top-notch. He hurriedly responded.

Only then did Xia Wanyuan turn around.

The moment Jun Shiling and the rest left, Ruan Dan was detained and interrogated for a full ten hours in the interrogation room before stopping. When they left the interrogation room, Ruan Dan felt that his eyes were filled with halos.

“Are you feeling better?” Jun Shiling looked at Xia Wanyuan worriedly.

“I’m fine.” She was still a little dizzy when she left the police station just now. Now that she had adapted to the light outside, she was fine.

Chen Yun and Tang Yin experienced the long traffic jam in Beijing and finally arrived at the police station. However, they were told that Xia Wanyuan had been taken away.

The two of them thought about it and guessed that it was Jun Shiling. Only then were they relieved.

When they returned to the manor, Xia Yu was wrapped up like a dumpling with bandages all over him.

Xiao Bao squatted curiously by the sofa and carefully touched Xia Yu’s bandage. “Uncle, are you a mummy? You’re so cool.”

“Jun Yin, your uncle is injured. Don’t touch him,” Jun Shiling scolded softly, afraid that Xiao Bao’s hand would not be gentle.

“Okay.” Xiao Bao retracted his hand, his big eyes filled with concern. “Uncle, does it hurt? I’ll blow on it for you.”

With that, Xiao Bao gently blew on Xia Yu’s bandaged hand. His cheeks puffed up cutely.

“Master Jun, Madam, I’ve already treated Young Master Xia’s wound. It’s just a superficial wound. You don’t have to worry too much, he’ll be fine after resting.”

Shen Xiu instructed as he packed his tools.

“Thank you for your hard work.” Xia Wanyuan walked forward and was relieved to see that Xia Yu was fine. “Have you taken the photos I asked you to take?”

“I did. I asked Doctor Shen to take it for me. Sister, let me tell you. That photo looks too terrible,” Xia Yu said and wanted to show Xia Wanyuan the phone on the table.

“Uncle, don’t move. I’ll get it for you.” Xiao Bao sensibly handed the phone to Xia Wanyuan. Xia Wanyuan clicked on it and saw that the wound had been photographed so shockingly. Xia Wanyuan looked at Shen Xiu in admiration.

Not only did Doctor Shen have high medical skills, but he also had excellent photography skills.

The commotion on Weibo grew. Although Ruan Yingyu and Xia Wanyuan were not big celebrities, the show-watchers would never let a female celebrity beat up another female celebrity’s younger brother and two female celebrities tear each other apart.

Seeing that there was no response from Xia Wanyuan’s side for a long time, everyone rushed to the Weibo account of the Yangan District Public Security Bureau that had taken Xia Wanyuan away, urging the Public Security Bureau to quickly give the public an explanation.

At the same time, Tang Yin and Chen Yun finally sorted out the information and evidence that Xia Wanyuan had sent over.

“Send it?”

“Send! Let’s see how they will argue this time.”

Hence, just as public opinion was about to boil, Xia Wanyuan’s Weibo suddenly updated.
