After rebirth, I rejected the rich yandere lady-Chapter 696 - 300: Domineering Protection of Husband, The Women’s Efforts! (6.5k asking for subscriptions!)_2

When Zhao Lianmai spoke, there was a hint of pride in her voice.

When it came from everyone else, it felt intimate and affirming.

But now, when Huang Tianming said it, why did it sound so annoying?

At this moment, her annoyance had reached its peak.

She couldn't compete with Yao Mingyue as a childhood sweetheart.

She couldn't outdo An Nuannuan as a boss's wife either!

Looking at Huang Tianming, who stood before her with the smug smile of a self-proclaimed achiever.

She kicked him straight in the crotch with a swift, rising kick!

"Crack..."

She didn't know if that was the sound of something breaking.

Huang Tianming screamed in agony, clutching his groin as he nearly collapsed to the ground, convulsing.

But Zhu Yulan didn't spare him a second glance, grabbing the car keys from the table instead.

She went out to ride the Ya Di electric scooter that Xu Musen had arranged for her.

Twisting the throttle, she raced directly toward the milk tea shop in the city center.

Since this problem had arisen because of her, she couldn't just watch Xu Musen get into trouble for helping her.

In the milk tea shop, there were still some staff on duty.

They watched Huang Tianming, in agony, with a sense of gloating in their hearts. They had seen him before and, having heard certain things, disliked him a lot.

One clerk even stepped out holding two egg tarts, "Don't be angry, it was just a kick, here, have a couple of egg tarts to make up for it."

Huang Tianming was so angry he felt like he was about to explode, especially when he saw the shape of the egg tarts, fearing he might have been kicked flat like them.

Especially the attitude of these servers, their cheeky demeanor, he wondered where on earth they had learned it.

It made him even more frustrated.

"Just you wait! I'll have this lousy shop shut down sooner or later!"

Huang Tianming said, limping to his car to leave, hurrying off to find someone at the hospital to check on him.

...

Zhu Yulan arrived at the milk tea shop in the city center, which was still surrounded by quite a few people.

She found Zhao Lianmai and got the full story, especially upon hearing that Xu Musen had been taken away, she bit her lips until they were nearly bleeding.

She knew that if it weren't for her, this situation wouldn't have happened.

For a major family enterprise to target an ordinary person was like the vast ocean trying to drown an ant.

The sheer pressure of it made Zhu Yulan feel suffocated just thinking about it.

But now, Zhu Yulan felt like there was nothing she could do to help…

Before, she could have asked her family for help or used money to have the media come and clarify things.

But now, she was just an ordinary, rebellious young girl.

Feeling somewhat powerless, she leaned against a wall, while words spoken by Huang Tianming and her family echoed in her mind.

Without the identity of the Zhu Family's young lady, she felt like she truly was nothing...

Before, even when she was kicked out of the family home, even when all the company shares, properties, and assets were confiscated, she hadn't shed a single tear.

But at this moment, she felt waves of bitterness in her heart, and her eyes welled up with tears…

For the first time, she realized that what made people feel powerless wasn't just the prospect of sadness beforehand, but remorse over why they couldn't help the important people in their lives.

"It's not all your fault. He said he could handle it, and the best help we can provide is to take care of the shop in his absence."

Zhao Lianmai came over, took out a wet wipe, and gently dabbed at the tear at the corner of her eye. Right, they were just employees, and the best they could do was to keep the shop running while the boss was away.

Zhu Yulan bit her lip, which was already showing specks of blood, yet she seemed as if she had made a firm decision.

"No, it wouldn't be like this if not for me. I still have a way…"

Zhu Yulan stood up, mounted the electric scooter, and went off to another location.

At this moment.

Xu Musen was taken to the station.

He was supposed to be let go after explaining the situation, but suddenly someone informed him that the incident was serious.

Xu Musen had to stay there longer, and it was unclear when he would be released, but it seemed he wouldn't be leaving anytime soon.

And this timing happened to coincide with the most critical moment for public relations crisis management.

If missed, it would be almost impossible to reverse the public's perception.

The middle-aged captain who brought Xu Musen in was surprised, "The specific responsibility hasn't been determined yet, why is he still being detained?"

"I don't know either, but this is an order from the higher-ups. They say it involves students and the situation is grave, so they want to personally interrogate him and have instructed us not to let him go for now. There's nothing I can do," replied the messenger with a helpless shrug.

But having been through the ropes for many years, they naturally understood what was going on.

The captain turned to look at Xu Musen in the room.

This chapter is updated by freēwēbnovel.com.

This young man had probably offended some high-ranking person this time.

But they had no choice but to follow orders.

The captain frowned and went back into the room to inform Xu Musen of the situation.

Xu Musen wasn't too surprised; the other party had gone through great lengths to bring him in.

He certainly wouldn't be let go easily.

All sorts of exaggerated stories were probably flying around outside by now.

All he could hope for now was that Yao Mingyue and Aunt Liu's public relations department were competent enough.

Getting him out of here sooner would be ideal.

He had thought about not telling Nuannuan to avoid scaring her, but he guessed the news couldn't be kept hidden.

What a pity that he had turned in his phone and couldn't comfort the young girl.

Even though he knew that Nuannuan's grandparents and his prospective father-in-law were not simple characters either.
