Xi Jin Jiang had said that the events of that year were not solely orchestrated by Danny. Back then, his momentum was so strong that many people disliked him and even more wanted to deal with him. During this period, he had secretly investigated the events of five years ago and indeed found some things. It wasn't just about a few clubs; some investors and referees were also involved.
Li Wen's heart skipped a beat upon hearing Tan Zheng's words. "Are you truly planning to do this? Although he's retired, it involves a lot of capital. Even with GN, doing this would be like killing a thousand enemies while losing eight hundred of your own."
Tan Zheng lowered his gaze, staring at his left wrist. Li Wen knew Tan Zheng's nature and understood that if he truly wanted to do something, he would be willing to suffer the loss of eight hundred. "Some matters don't need to be brought into the open. Although many didn't understand your retirement back then, there weren't any strange rumors."
"If you were to dig up the past, what benefits would it bring you? Your retirement was your own decision; no one forced you."
"Furthermore, Xi Jin Jiang cannot be absolved of this matter. Do you want to drag him into it?" Li Wen asked this, already certain that Tan Zheng would not want to involve Xi Jin Jiang. He knew what Tan Zheng had been doing for the past five years.
"You just need to teach them a lesson."
"Isn't that so?" For that group of people, reputation might not be the most important thing; it was profit. As long as their financial resources were cut off, even without exposing the events of that year, the pain for them would be the same.
Tan Zheng listened to Li Wen's words. If he were alone, he would have to engage in an open conflict with them. But now he had Song Ni, and just Danny dared to threaten his wife in front of him... Indeed, such a method of killing a thousand while losing eight hundred was unnecessary.
...After participating in this competition, Huan Yuan and Sheng Jiang did not return home but remained here to continue training. N returned in May, and since then, Tan Zheng had devoted himself entirely to training.
Upon learning that Tan Zheng was preparing to come out of retirement, Qin Yang specifically took half a month off to come to London. Cheng Ling accompanied her this time, as her boyfriend. The two of them rented a villa next door. Qin Yang accompanied Song Ni to classes, while Cheng Ling went to watch Tan Zheng train. As a psychologist, he had initially planned to take a break for a while but ended up being used by Tan Zheng to help with some minor injuries.
One day, after Song Ni finished her class, the two of them planned to pick up the two men at the training ground and then go to the supermarket together to buy ingredients for hot pot. Before they even left the school gate, they were stopped.
Song Ni looked at Miss KG, whose attire was still as ostentatious and elaborate as ever, with a hint of helplessness.
Qin Yang whispered, "Who is this?"
"An imbecile."
Qin Yang: ...Truly worthy of Ni Ni, speaking so sharply.
Miss KG, upon learning that Song Ni was studying at the CS Academy, had eagerly brought her entourage over. In her opinion, Ian was a prize catch; no woman could escape Ian's charm, nor could any woman resist the allure of his family's power.
"Stop right there!" The haughty Miss KG commanded imperiously.
Song Ni, too lazy to deal with idiots, pulled Qin Yang and walked aside.
"I'm talking to you! Stop right there!" Song Ni tried to move forward but was blocked by the bodyguards accompanying Miss KG.
Song Ni took a deep breath, expending considerable effort to suppress her emotions. Truly, she was stupid to the bone. After Ian had said so much last time, she still dared to come and cause trouble for her. Did she really think she would care about that fallen family?
Song Ni asked Qin Yang to wait on the side. "Ni Ni, be careful." Although she didn't know what kind of person this woman was, being able to enter and leave the school with bodyguards indicated she was not of ordinary status. Her reminder to Song Ni was not to go too far, so as to avoid an unmanageable situation.
Song Ni looked at the foolish woman. "Who do you think you are? I have to listen when you speak? You're learning from others, bringing bodyguards to block my way, aren't you?" Song Ni was dressed casually and gently this time, but her aura was even more formidable than before. "I told you, to stop bothering me, both of you. Don't you understand?"
The foolish Miss KG flinched back instinctively, startled by Song Ni. But then she remembered she had brought people with her and wondered why she should be afraid of a woman. "Don't put on an act. You keep saying you have no interest in Ian, so why are you studying here?"
Song Ni: ...This isn't just a problem with one person's brain; it's the entire family that's sick, otherwise, how could they raise such a foolish daughter? "If you're sick, go to the hospital. Why are you here throwing a tantrum? Are you looking for a beating?"
"You're feeling guilty! You must be feeling guilty! I knew you had your eye on Ian. How can you be so shameless, coveting someone else's fiancé?"
Song Ni: ...
Qin Yang, watching from the sidelines: ...It's truly eye-opening coming abroad to encounter such an idiot.
Song Ni looked down at the ring on her finger. It seemed she had been too low-key; after wearing it for so long, people were still blind enough not to see it.
"What do you want?" The noble Miss KG tilted her head proudly and let out a cold huff. "Withdraw from school. If you don't want to withdraw, you can change your major, but you're not allowed to study this."
Song Ni: ...She was truly an imbecile, to try and communicate with someone without a brain. "How about this? Let's make a deal."
"What?"
"I'll beat all your bodyguards down, and then you'll go to the hospital and get your brain checked properly."
Miss KG: ...
After speaking, Song Ni didn't care about her reaction and started fighting. She still had time to pick up Tan Zheng, and if she hurried, she might even catch him training. Song Ni's moves were swift and fierce. Before the three bodyguards could even react, they were taken down by a seemingly frail woman. Just as they were about to get up and engage Song Ni in a fight, the bodyguards who had been secretly protecting Song Ni stepped forward and intercepted the three men.
The foolish Miss KG was dumbfounded. Song Ni clapped her hands and rolled up her sleeves. "Noble Miss KG, don't talk about your family; even if you added Ian, I wouldn't be afraid of the two families combined, understand? Also, open your blind eyes and see, I am already married. Who cares about that damned Ian? The Ian you consider a prize catch is nothing to me. I even find him annoying."
After satisfying herself by seeing the foolish lady's shocked expression, Song Ni turned away. Qin Yang leaned over. "Ni Ni, I just recorded that. You haven't trained for so long, and your moves are still so fierce." Song Ni glanced at the video and chuckled. "Actually, I quite wanted to find someone to fight with, to loosen up my muscles. They were the ones who came looking for trouble." Qin Yang also laughed.
The sisters walked towards the parking spot. Song Ni scanned the area and noticed something amiss. She stopped Qin Yang from opening the car door. "Yang Yang, wait a moment." Qin Yang stopped and turned to ask, "What's wrong?" Song Ni squatted down, looking at the marks under the car.
