Chapter 6854
Do you really think you can control everything?
Chen Ziyan was quite depressed.
She was actually pinned down.
She was treated like an object to be casually manipulated by a man she looked down upon.
This is even more painful than killing her!
That sense of humiliation felt like a thousand steel needles piercing her heart at once, causing her unbearable pain.
She tried to struggle, to resist, to shake that hateful hand off her leg, but her body seemed to be out of control, stiff and unable to move.
She could only bite her lip tightly, tears welling up in her eyes, but she forced herself not to let them fall.
She told herself that she couldn't cry, and she couldn't show her weakness in front of this man. She was Chen Ziyan, the pride of the Chen family in the ancient city. She couldn't lose, she couldn't be defeated!
The extreme shame and anger, like surging volcanic lava, completely ignited the destructive madness deep within her heart.
That rage ignited from the depths of her heart, spreading wildly through her veins and throughout her entire body, making every inch of her skin tremble with burning heat.
She turned her head sharply, the movement swift and decisive, as if to release all her humiliation and anger through that turn.
Her gaze was like an extremely sharp dagger, fixed on Xiao Chen's face, which was inches away from hers.
That face remained expressionless, as calm as a lake before a storm, but in her eyes, it was a blatant provocation and contempt.
Her beautiful eyes burned with a venomous flame capable of incinerating everything. That flame, filled with endless hatred and determination, seemed to want to burn the man before her to ashes.
Her voice trembled slightly with extreme anger and humiliation, each word seemingly squeezed out from between her teeth, yet each syllable was clear and powerful, like a viper's hiss, carrying a deadly threat: "Bastard! I don't care who you are!"
No matter what despicable means you used!
You dare to offend me, Chen Ziyan, today, and dare to touch me with your filthy hands... You're dead!
No one in heaven or on earth can save you!
She paused slightly, took a deep breath, and her venomous gaze sharpened, as if trying to see right through Xiao Chen: "You have no idea what the Chen family of Gucheng means to an ant like you!"
It's a matter of life and death!
With a single word from the Chen family, we can decide a person's life or death, and wipe out an entire clan!
It's like crushing a bug to kill you!
In front of the Chen family, you are not even as good as a bedbug. We can trample on you however we want!
Her voice grew louder and louder, and her emotions became more and more agitated, as if she wanted to vent all her anger and humiliation through these words: "Even if you become a doorman at Qujiang Club for the rest of your life, you will never be able to escape the grasp of the Chen family!"
Our Chen family's influence extends to every corner of the ancient city. No matter where you hide, you can't escape our grasp!
I will make you... regret ever being born!
I will make you realize that offending me, Chen Ziyan, and the Chen family is the most foolish and wrong decision you have ever made!
As soon as she finished speaking, Chen Ziyan clearly felt the strong, calloused hand move away from her wrist.
The removal of that hand filled her with a strange sense of triumph. She thought Xiao Chen had been frightened by her threat and had become afraid.
She sneered inwardly, the laughter echoing in her heart, filled with endless contempt and disdain, almost overflowing from her chest.
She looked at Xiao Chen with contempt in her eyes, as if she were looking at a pathetic worm that she was about to trample under her feet.
An ant is still an ant. Faced with a truly towering tree, what can it do but cower and accept its fate? The Chen family, this great tree, has been rooted in the ancient city for many years, with lush branches and leaves, and immense power. How could someone like him, who wallows in the mud, possibly shake it?
He was just a nobody at the bottom of society, utterly powerless in the face of the Chen family's authority.
Her red lips parted slightly, a mocking smile playing on her lips. She was about to unleash an even more biting sarcasm, wanting to crush this man completely into the mud, so he could never lift his head again—"Slap!"
A crisp, loud sound, almost like a thunderclap, slapped her hard across her left cheek!
The sound echoed in the silent air, as if the whole world had fallen silent, leaving only the crisp sound of a slap.
Chen Ziyan felt a burning pain on her cheek, as if she were being scorched by flames. The pain instantly spread throughout her body, causing her to tremble violently.
Chen Ziyan froze completely, as if she had been frozen in place, unable to move at all.
My mind went completely blank for a moment, as if I had been hit hard by an invisible giant hammer. My thoughts stopped, my consciousness became chaotic, and I fell into a state of confusion and astonishment.
The searing pain, like a surging tide, instantly spread from the slapped cheek.
Half of his face felt like it was on fire, or like it was being pierced by countless tiny needles at the same time; every inch of his skin was groaning in pain.
The pain was so intense that she wanted to cover her face, but her body seemed to have lost control, and she could only stand there blankly.
Her ears were buzzing, as if a swarm of bees were frantically buzzing around them. The sounds of the outside world became blurred, leaving only the continuous buzzing echoing in her mind, making her dizzy.
She could even clearly feel a faint taste of blood spreading in her mouth.
That was blood seeping from the inside of her mouth after her teeth had broken it. The bloody smell, with a hint of rust, stimulated her taste buds and made her stomach churn.
But beneath this intense pain, a strange, indescribable tingling sensation arose.
The tingling sensation, like an electric current, quickly coursed through her limbs and bones, causing her body to tremble involuntarily and her toes to curl up involuntarily.
This feeling filled her with both shame and anger. She was ashamed that she would have such a strange reaction at a time like this, and angry at the person who hit her and made her suffer such humiliation.
She felt her cheeks burning, wishing she could disappear into the ground or simply die to escape this endless humiliation and pain.
Immediately afterwards, a voice as cold as a Siberian icy current rang in her buzzing eardrums.
The voice, utterly indifferent and devoid of any emotion, seemed to emanate from an ice cellar, sending chills down one's spine.
"Chen Ziyan, do you really think this ancient city is a chessboard where your Chen family can control everything?"
To outsiders, the Chen family might be an insurmountable mountain, a lofty and awe-inspiring presence, with everyone showing respect and daring not to offend them in the slightest.
But in my eyes, Xiao Chen, you are nothing more than a handful of sand that I can toss away at will. Your Chen family's power and wealth are worthless in my eyes; I can wipe your entire Chen family from this ancient city at any time. (End of Chapter)
