Chapter 456: Another Wave (2)

Right after Sun Fengzi spoke this, Duan Yarong and Han Yichen’s expressions instantly changed at the same time.

“Sun Fengzi, don’t go overboard. He and I are not what you’re thinking. He is…”

Duan Yarong’s expression turned grave. She anxiously explained herself. However, her eagerness had been interpreted by Sun Fengzi as a sign of guilt out of her conscience. As such, Sun Fengzi spoke more outrageously, “Mind my words, huh?! Did I say it wrongly? Duan Yarong, bear with me. My words might sound harsh but to be honest, look at you. You’re already in your forties. You don’t have a child, and it’s entirely due to your own sins. Otherwise, I’m afraid your child would have been about this young man’s age, right?”

Sun Fengzi pointed at Han Yichen and said sarcastically, “You are an old woman and no longer look youthful and pretty. Not even an old man would lay their eyes on you, much less a good-looking young man like him. If not for coming after your wealth, do you really think he is lusting over your aging looks?”

Han Yichen’s expression immediately darkened. He was about to go forward but was stopped by Duan Yarong.

No matter what, Sun Fengzi was still his third aunt as well as his elder. If Han Yichen were to strike her, once his identity was revealed, ill-intentioned culprits would simply make up stories that Han Yichen lacked proper upbringing due to the fact that he had been in exile for so many years.

When Sun Fengzi noticed Han Yichen’s dark face and had stood up to walk toward her, her expression changed. However, when she saw Duan Yarong stop him, she resumed her words and said smugly, “What? I’ve poked your soft spot and made you angry so you want to strike me, is it? Let me tell you, I am different from Duan Yarong. If you dare to lay a finger on me, tomorrow I’ll go back and make sure you are unable to stay in Shalnork!”

When Sun Fengzi said this, she cast a profound glance at Han Yichen who was behind Duan Yarong. Her eyes lit up. “Speaking of which, Duan Yarong, your lover is indeed quite good-looking and very well-groomed as well. He is not a gigolo, isn’t he? You made him dressed up and took him over to your own birthday banquet, aren’t you afraid Shunrong would discover him? Duan Yarong, why haven’t I realized that you’re actually this greedy in the past?!”

“Enough!” Upon hearing Sun Fengzi degrading her son as a gigolo, Duan Yarong completely lost her rationality. Without giving it a second thought, she walked over to Sun Fengzi. Before Sun Fengzi could react to her, Duan Yarong raised her hand and slapped her.

Duan Yarong was truly in a fit of rage. She used all her might as she slapped Sun Fengzi.

Meanwhile, Sun Fengzi had no idea that the woman, who had always been very patient and was suppressed by her over the years, had actually slapped her all of a sudden.

When Duan Yarong slapped her, she was not able to react to it, much less dodge her slap.

Duan Yarong had exerted all her might. Sun Fengzi felt her face sting with pain. At the same time, she had also lost her balance.

Before she fell, Sun Fengzi had reflexively grabbed something beside her. However, she had only grabbed hold of the table cloth covering the table.

A loud crisp sound rang out along with the sound of tableware falling down from the table as Sun Fengzi pulled the table cloth.

The table cloth dropped on the floor and the shatters of the ceramic scattered around the floor. Sun Fengzi covered the side of her face. Her eyes looked like they almost popped out of their sockets as she glared at Duan Yarong, who was like a fierce lioness protecting her son at all costs.

By the time Zhao Youlin and the rest of her group arrived, they were greeted by such a sight.

Sun Fengzi was stunned for some time. Her swollen cheek grew increasingly prominent. It was only then did she snap out of her daze. She raised her voice and screamed like a madwoman, “Duan Yarong, you bitch! How dare you slap me?! How dare you slap me?!”

Right after she finished screaming, she climbed up from the floor and lunged at Duan Yarong. Sun Fengzi looked so fierce as if she wanted to rip Duan Yarong into pieces.

Zhao Shunchang had never thought that Duan Yarong would suddenly strike Sun Fengzi. When he heard Sun Fengzi’s shout, only then did he recover his senses. Without giving it a second thought, he hurriedly held Sun Fengzi from behind.

Sun Fengzi went crazy when she was being held all of a sudden. She kept lunging forward even if such an act would cost her her life. However, in the end, she was no match for the man’s strength and could not move.

When she realized that she could not dash forward, Sun Fengzi decided to vent her anger at Zhao Shuncheng who was holding her from behind. She scratched him and even bit him like a crazy woman.

While she was striking him, she screamed, “You useless idiot! She struck me. It’s okay that you don’t help me. But how dare you even stop me from striking her? Who is your wife?! Is it me or her?! You darn rascal!”

Although Zhao Shunchang was wounded and he cried out bitterly in his heart, he dared not let go of Sun Fengzi or she would run over to Duan Yarong and get into a physical fight with her.

Sun Fengzi struggled for some time yet still could not free herself from Zhao Shunchang’s grip. In the end, she gave up. She turned her head around angrily and abused Duan Yarong verbally, “Duan Yarong, how dare you strike me for the sake of the adulterer?! Very well, since you intend to cover up for him, I’ll ruin his reputation so that he cannot stay in Shalnork anymore. He’s just as cheap as you! I can make his life a living hell with just a snap of my finger. By that time, I shall see how you can still protect him!”

Right after Sun Fengzi spoke, Duan Yarong put on a straight face. She raised her hand and was about to strike her again.

Sun Fengzi screamed. Zhao Shunchang’s expression abruptly changed. He quickly carried Sun Fengzhi and stumbled to the side to avoid Duan Yarong’s slap.

Duan Yarong did not strike anyone. Instead, she stumbled in place. Han Yichen hurriedly went forward to help her out but Duan Yarong had already stopped him.

Duan Yarong steadied herself. She panted slightly as she said solemnly, “Sun Fengzi, I don’t mind you bad-mouthing me. As for Chen, if you dare to say a word against him, I will give my all to fight with you.”

Even though she did not raise her voice as she said the brief sentences, they sounded resolute, causing everyone’s heart on the spot to clench up.

Han Yichen looked at the seemingly frail woman yet firmly stood in front of him. Like an eagle, she tried hard to put her child beneath her wings to keep him from being harmed. His eyes lit up and showed that his heart was moved by the gesture.

Sun Fengzi was caught by surprise upon facing Duan Yarong’s sudden toughness. She was a little intimidated by her. After all, even though Duan Yarong’s family was not very powerful, her parents and siblings played important roles and had the right to speak up in certain industries.

Duan Yarong hated to use her family’s strength to suppress others. However, this did not mean that she would never use them to avenge herself.

Even so, Sun Fengzi did not show this on the surface. She smirked and said meanly, “You struck me for the sake of this man. You even dared to scold me in order to protect him. If that’s the case, dare you say you have no adulterous affairs with him? Hah! Shunrong should come over and have a look at you guys now. He should witness himself that his beloved woman is actually a shameless woman who cannot refuse to be left alone. A woman like you doesn’t deserve…”

“Have you had enough of it?!”

Before Sun Fengzi finished speaking, a familiar voice rose from behind. The words carried a hint of bone-chilling frost and got everyone to shiver as one.
