CHAPTER 473: CHAPTER 473

Jiang Weiwei quickly stopped him: "Confronting her like this will solve nothing. She’s very cunning. The moment she sees you, she’ll know I’m the one who told you these things. She might even go straight to my parents and tell on us."

Zhuang Wenjin asked her, "Then what do you suggest we do?"

He was very satisfied with his current life, a respectable job, and the company of the beautiful Jiang Weiwei for entertainment.

So he just wanted to maintain the status quo.

Jiang Weiwei, knowing Zhuang Wenjin’s desire to keep things as they are, advised him, "Instead of confronting her directly, it might be better to secretly follow her and take more photos of her with men."

"Would that work? I feel like it’s a temporary solution, not addressing the root cause!" Zhuang Wenjin’s face was a mass of suspicious flesh, full of doubt.

Jiang Weiwei leaned her frail head against his plump chest, "As long as we have something that we can use to threaten her, to keep her from reporting us, that’s enough."

Looking at the obedient and endearing woman in his arms, Zhuang Wenjin agreed.

And Jiang Weiwei gave Zhuang Wenjin the locations Jiang Moxi often visited, which she had learned from her acquaintances among the socialites.

Before Zhuang Wenjin set out, Jiang Weiwei repeatedly cautioned him: "Make sure she doesn’t see you, otherwise our plan will fall through."

Zhuang Wenjin was full of confidence: "Don’t worry. Don’t you trust me to handle things?"

Yet it was precisely Zhuang Wenjin’s overconfidence that, as soon as he started following Jiang Moxi and reached an orchard, allowed Jiang Moxi to notice him.

Jiang Moxi had nothing to do that afternoon, so she and Yu Dingding decided to visit a nearby orchard, to taste fresh fruits and seek inspiration.

But as soon as she got out of the car, she noticed someone sneaky following her.

Jiang Moxi wasn’t concerned because there had been a group shadowing her lately.

After entering the orchard, Zhuang Wenjin wanted to follow in.

But he was told that this was a private orchard, where only the owner or invited guests could come to play.

Therefore, Zhuang Wenjin lingered at the gate for a while, and only when the guard went to the restroom did he climb over the wall to get in.

What Zhuang Wenjin probably didn’t expect was that, just after he climbed the wall into the orchard, eight other people also entered the orchard in the same manner.

Jiang Moxi picked a peach, took a few bites, then took out her phone to contact Yu Dingding, asking where she was.

Yu Dingding happened to be entangled with Ye Chen and could only tell Jiang Moxi, "It will take a while longer."

"Then I’ll wait for you." After sending the voice message to Yu Dingding, Jiang Moxi noticed that besides the person she had seen earlier, there were several other sneaky people in the orchard.

The orchard belonged to the Feng Family, and the people there were well aware of Jiang Moxi’s temperament.

Generally, when Jiang Moxi visited, the guards would not let other unrelated people in.

So these people must have sneaked in, and it’s very likely they were up to some illegal intentions against her.

Apart from the man holding the camera, the other few were familiar faces to Jiang Moxi.

Ever since Jiang Moxi started going to the hospital for check-ups, these people had been lingering nearby.

Jiang Moxi had not planned to deal with them so quickly, but the thought that Yu Dingding would be coming soon and that these people might scare her made things troublesome.

So, Jiang Moxi nibbled the peach down to its pit, tossed the pit aside and said, "Come out, all of you."

Zhuang Wenjin, hiding under an orange tree, was a bit panicked.

He was still pondering in his mind, he had been so careful, how could he still get noticed by this woman?

He was wondering whether this woman would, as Jiang Weiwei had said, go and tattle about him, Zhuang Wenjin, and Jiang Weiwei’s affair to Jiang Weiwei’s parents. Just then, he heard some rustling noises.

Zhuang Wenjin subconsciously looked back and saw eight big and strong men closing in on Jiang Moxi.

Zhuang Wenjin was immediately bewildered and muttered to himself, "What’s going on here? Are they trying to kidnap her?"

Luckily, he was hiding from a considerable distance, and those people were too busy with the confrontation to hear Zhuang Wenjin’s muttering.

On the other side, Jiang Moxi, seeing these people closing in, kept a calm demeanor. Even her bright and sparkling eyes did not betray a hint of panic.

The calmness of the girl took the fierce and ghastly men by surprise.

So, the leader said to her, "Girlie, if you don’t want to suffer, just come with us quietly."

"Who sent you?" Jiang Moxi mulled over the words "girlie."

She thought, if it were a Mercenary camp, they certainly wouldn’t call her, the notorious Dead Ghost, by such a cloying nickname.

And as for those from the Emperor City, it was even less plausible for them to use such a gentle term with her.

Consequently, Jiang Moxi could not figure out where these people had suddenly sprung from.

The leader smiled and said, "That’s not something a little girl like you should worry about. You just need to come with us."

"What if I don’t go with you?" Jiang Moxi said, while taking another peach from the peach tree beside her and taking a bite.

The orchard was exclusively for the Feng Family’s Mansion, planting mostly Jiang Moxi’s favorite fruits, all-natural, and pesticide-free.

Especially these peaches, which were said to have been cultivated personally by Feng Yu. They were juicy, with a deliciously tart and sweet flavor, and their fragrance filled the air.

Jiang Moxi had just eaten one, feeling a bit lightheaded, so she couldn’t resist picking another to taste.

She really wanted to dispatch these people quickly and enjoy her peaches without interruption.

Zhuang Wenjin, watching from not far away, saw Jiang Moxi still focusing on eating peaches and couldn’t believe his eyes, "Is this woman crazy? It’s not the time to run, but she is eating peaches!"

The men who had surrounded Jiang Moxi close by were even more infuriated by her disdainful snacking on the peaches.

"Fine, if you won’t drink a toast, you’ll have to drink a forfeit! Brothers, tie her up and let’s finish our job. Stop wasting time."

Once the leader had spoken, the others attacked Jiang Moxi from all sides.

Zhuang Wenjin couldn’t bear to watch and quickly hid behind a tree, fearing the scene would become too bloody and brutal and would scare him, as plump as he was.

As expected, it wasn’t long before cries of pain rose and fell intermittently.

But something seemed off to Zhuang Wenjin; these cries didn’t sound like they were coming from a woman.

When he got curious again and peeked out, Zhuang Wenjin was dumbfounded.

Because those big and strong men from before were now all lying on the ground.

And Jiang Moxi was standing with one foot on the leader’s head, continuing to eat her peach.

"Damn, what is going on here!" Zhuang Wenjin couldn’t help but exclaim, drawing the cold gaze of Jiang Moxi, who was still eating her peach, upon him.

Jiang Moxi was young, so in theory, Zhuang Wenjin should not have been afraid of her look.

But for some reason, in that moment, Zhuang Wenjin felt as if he had been targeted by the grim reaper.

Terrified, he quickly covered his eyes, "I’m not with them; I didn’t see anything."

Then, like a lion’s prey scrambling away, Zhuang Wenjin ran off so fast that he was out of sight in no time...
