The leader’s eyes were vicious. He did away with his teasing. “I’m afraid it’s not up to you whether you want to go or not.”

The three of them signaled to each other with their eyes and immediately surrounded Cen Shuang. She was so thin and small that they thought they could easily overpower her. Any one of them could deal with this girl. One of them had the courage to take the lead and attack Cen Shuang. He aimed at her chest. Cen Shuang’s eyes turned cold. She bent down, turned around, and kicked the man’s leg. She raised her hand and placed it on the man’s forearm. She pressed hard, channeling strength into her fingertips. With a cracking sound, the man crumpled to the ground and rolled around, howling in pain. The two men who had yet to get close to her stared blankly at Cen Shuang with obvious astonishment on their faces.

“I’m afraid that your employer gave you incomplete information. You’ll only be able to convince me to move if you pick me up in a limousine and roll out a red carpet. The three of you… aren’t good enough.”

This girl was so arrogant!

“This girl has skills.” The man on the ground clutched his broken arm and struggled to get up. However, as soon as he got up, he fell to the ground again. Only then did he realize that his leg was also broken. She had moved so fast. He did not even have a chance to react before Cen Shuang broke his arm and leg. The two of them immediately became more vigilant. No wonder this girl did not panic when she saw them. She was simply a martial artist.

“Brother, grab the things.” They produced a wooden stick and a short knife. The leader said, “I originally didn’t want to hurt you. Why don’t you be a good girl and get in the car quietly? You don’t want to get in the way of this knife.”

That was when she sneezed and tears welled up in her eyes. Her beautiful tired eyes should have ensued guilt but right now, they were utterly cold. “What are you talking about? I don’t want to go with you. Hurry up. Let’s finish this. I want to go home and sleep.”

The two men pounced on her. Cen Shuang dodged the knife and was hit in the back. She was slow. Would she have been at a disadvantage with these men if she had not caught a cold? Cen Shuang took off her high heels and hit the man’s knuckles with the slender heels. She immediately broke his other arm. The other man did not dare to take another step forward. Was she really a woman? Cen Shuang was scarier than a hag. She broke both of their arms with just one move. The three of them ran away. Cen Shuang touched her forehead and said helplessly, “Can’t you move the stone first?”

Li Jun, who had rushed over from not far away, was shocked by the beautiful woman’s merciless actions. She had acted before he had even arrived on scene.

It was already dark when Cen Shuang arrived at the Zhuang residence. Lan Yibai was sitting on the sofa in the living room. When she saw her come in, she came over immediately. “Why are you back so late?”

“The way home was blocked by a rock. I had someone clean it up,” Cen Shuang replied nonchalantly. Lan Yibai then heaved a sigh of relief. After giving her a few reminders, she let Cen Shuang return to her room. The crystal lamp lit up every corner of the room. Zhuang Hong, who was lying on the bed, was breathing evenly. Cen Shuang sat beside him. She snorted coldly and took off her clothes. There was a bright red line of blood on her slender back. It was a shocking sight. Cen Shuang carefully took off her clothes. The back of her shirt was glued to her back and she felt a sharp pain when she tried to pull it off.

Cen Shuang could not help but suck in a sharp breath. The pain in her back was becoming more and more noticeable. Although those people did not have any skills, they still had immense strength. It was fortunate that the stick had hit her back. If it was her arm that had been hit, she would be the one with the broken arm. Cen Shuang pulled off her shirt and whimpered. She took out the medicine box and carefully stretched out her arm. “What if I can’t reach it…”

Cen Shuang tried to raise her arm, but gave up when she could not reach. She threw the cotton swab with medicine into the trash can. She did not care that her upper body was still naked. She grabbed Zhuang Hong’s hand and said aggrievedly, “Zhuang Hong, I’m in so much pain. I’m injured and beaten up. I’ve taken care of you for so long, yet you don’t even open your eyes to comfort me.”

As she looked at the man on the bed, she felt even more wronged. Her wound began to hurt even more. She was afraid that Cen Zhu would be worried, and she did not want Lan Yibai to know about it. She did not even dare to let the maid know about it. She could not tell anyone who was close to her. Now, she could not even apply the medicine on the wound. She sniffed, feeling aggrieved. The wound on her back hurt even more than all the wounds she had sustained from practicing martial arts. “Zhuang Hong, I feel so uncomfortable. How can you be a husband? You’re not qualified at all.”

Knowing that the person on the bed would not respond to her, she gently pulled the blanket over her body. The blanket touched the wound, and another wave of burning pain came. “Do you think they’ll be curious if I go out and get someone to apply the medicine for me now?”

How could a girl get beaten up like this? The Cen family was bankrupt, and her days in the Zhuang family were spent walking on thin ice. Zhuang Hong was lying in bed, and she kept getting into trouble.
