Liu Yuanlei was beaten into a pig's head by his bodyguards.

Chu Tang stood in front of him with his arms folded, his cold eyes gleaming with danger. "Did you find the person who pushed me on the side of the road just now?"

Being a lawyer is a high-risk profession, and it is not uncommon for clients to harbor resentment and deliberately retaliate against lawyers. Not long ago, lawyer Zhang Tianxin was stabbed by a client and sent to the hospital, where he almost died. This is a living example.

Liu Yuanlei knelt on the ground and begged for mercy: "Please forgive me, Auntie, I was really wrong, I won't dare to do it again."

Chu Tang frowned, "I'm asking you if you found the person who pushed me on the side of the road just now?"

"What road? What person pushed you?" Liu Yuanlei was confused. "That's not the person I'm looking for. I'm just meeting you for the first time."

Not the person he was looking for?

Who is that?

Chu Tang frowned in thought.

Could it be the person Chen Wan is looking for?

Soon, Chu Tang rejected this idea.

Although Chen Wan is a green tea girl and doesn't like her, she doesn't look like such a vicious person who would want to kill her.

Who would that be?

Chu Tang thought for a moment.

Suddenly, a name came to mind.

Fu Yuanzhou.

Jiang Shixu told her about the relationship between Fu Yuanzhou and the Jiang family, and also specifically warned her that Fu Yuanzhou might cause trouble for her in order to take revenge on Jiang Shixu.

Thinking of this, Chu Tang raised her eyes and looked at the man in front of her whose face was covered in bruises and red, "Are you Fu Yuanzhou's man?"

The man shook his head. "I don't know him, Auntie, please let me go. I really won't dare to do it again. I will go back today and immediately compensate Liu Ming. Please let me go!"

Chu Tang asked coldly, "If you're not Fu Yuanzhou's man, then why did you ask me to come over and call so many thugs? You're just a small factory owner, and you dare to be so arrogant? There must be someone behind you. Tell me the name of that person and I'll let you go."

Liu Yuanlei couldn't help but shiver.

The boss behind him is involved in both legal and illegal activities, and everyone in the underworld has to call him "Big Brother". This factory actually belongs to his big brother, and he is just a legal representative who takes the blame and has no real power.

He didn't dare to betray his elder brother. Thinking of his elder brother's cruel methods, Liu Yuanlei broke out in a cold sweat.

Liu Yuanlei swallowed hard and replied, "I... I don't have anyone behind me. I just thought I'd scare you because you're a little girl."

Chu Tang narrowed his eyes and looked at Liu Yuanlei, wondering how true his words were.

Liu Yuanlei felt uneasy when being stared at, fearing that Ruan Chutang would ask the bodyguards to beat him up again.

"Auntie, I kowtow to you, please let me go!"

Chu Tang smiled wryly, "I don't believe a small factory owner like you would have the guts to hire thugs to beat up the other party's lawyer in broad daylight. Since you don't want to talk about it, I have no choice but to call the police."

Liu Yuanlei breathed a sigh of relief.

He is not afraid of calling the police because his boss has connections in the police station.

……

Jiang Group President's Office.

Jiang Shixu's face turned gloomy when he received a call from his bodyguard.

In just one day, Tangtang encountered danger twice and almost got into trouble.

Jiang Shixu felt a little scared, hung up the phone, picked up his coat and walked out.

Lin Sen hurriedly chased after him: "Boss, where are you going? I have a meeting in ten minutes! Hey, Boss?"

……

Tinglanyuan Villa.

Nanny Zhang Caixia prepared a large table of dishes that Chutang liked.

Zhang Caixia smiled and said, "Tangtang, you've worked hard today, come and eat."

Chu Tang picked up the chopsticks, but had no appetite.

She was still thinking about the terrifying moment on the road today.

That was the first time she had been so close to death.

She almost never saw the sun tomorrow.

While I was distracted, Jiang Shixu came back.

"Tangtang, what's wrong with you?" Jiang Shixu's face was full of nervousness and fear. He walked over quickly, leaned over, put his hands on Chutang's shoulders, and looked at her carefully.

Chu Tang came back to his senses, "Brother Shixu, you know everything."

Jiang Shixu said "hmm" and pulled Chutang into his arms, hugging her tightly.

He almost lost her.

"Brother Shixu, I guess the person who pushed me on the side of the road today was Fu Yuanzhou's man. Apart from Fu Yuanzhou, I can't think of anyone else who would do this."

Of course, the person who hates her the most is Xu Jingxuan.

But Xu Jingxuan has now been arrested by the police.

The biggest suspect is Fu Yuanzhou.

Jiang Shixu tightened his grip around Chu Tang, his dark, deep eyes gleaming with a cold light. "I checked, and Fu Yuanzhou has indeed returned to China."

Chu Tang's body stiffened.

"Tangtang, try to go out less and work from home."

"Is he... Fu Yuanzhou really that scary?"

Jiang Shixu let go of Chu Tang, put his hands on her shoulders, stared into her eyes and said seriously, "I don't dare to gamble, Tangtang. When I think about how you almost got into trouble today, I'm so scared that my heart stops beating. Do you know that I value you more than my own life?"

Jiang Shixu's eyes turned red. "I am 100% sure that I can win against Fu Yuanzhou. He is ruthless and I can be even more ruthless than him, but he has no emotions, no weaknesses, and even no humanity. But I am different. I have you."

"Tangtang, I can't take any risks with you."

The lights in the restaurant were as bright as day, and the food on the table exuded an enticing aroma.

The evening news was playing on the TV in the living room, and the host's voice could be heard faintly.

Chu Tang's eyelashes were half drooped, her eyes were filled with soreness, and she whispered: "Brother Shi Xu, am I a burden to you?"

Jiang Shixu's eyes suddenly turned red, and guilt welled up in his eyes, "What are you talking about, Tangtang, it's me who has implicated you. If it weren't for me, you wouldn't be targeted by Xu Jingxuan, and you wouldn't be targeted by Fu Yuanzhou."

Chu Tang slowly shook his head, "You didn't implicate me. I never thought that way."

"But I think so, it's true." Jiang Shixu sighed, "Please don't go out for the next few days, okay? I'll come to accompany you every day."

Chu Tang nodded obediently, "Okay."

"By the way, Brother Shixu, please help me find someone."

"Who?"

"Liu Yuanlei."

Jiang Shixu's eyes flashed with a sharp cold light, "Is it the man who hired thugs to teach you a lesson today?"

"Yeah." Chu Tang nodded. "My intuition tells me that he must have someone behind him. How could a small factory owner like him be so bold as to hire thugs to teach me a lesson? They're just like gangsters."

Jiang Shixu said, "I've already sent someone to investigate."

"it is good."

"Tangtang, let's eat first, the food will get cold soon." Jiang Shixu pulled out a chair and sat down next to Chutang.

"Okay, you eat with me."
