Beijing Colors Lingering

Chapter 5: It turns out to be a thorny red rose.

In the restroom on the first floor of the Beijing Club.

Water was slowly flowing from the sensor faucet. Shen Jinsui carefully washed her wrist, which had just been touched by Pei Chiyu, inwardly cursing him as a scumbag.

If Pei Chiyu had stopped Shen Jinsui again, she would have disregarded her image and given him a good beating.

After a long while, Shen Jinsui took out a tissue from the tissue box and carefully wiped the water stains off her hands.

She had just thrown the tissue into the trash can when a middle-aged man suddenly stumbled in from outside.

He then leaned against the doorframe of the restroom entrance, emanating a pungent, unpleasant smell of alcohol. His cheeks were flushed, and he was breathing heavily, his beer belly rising and falling with each breath.

Upon seeing this man, Shen Jinsui subconsciously frowned, a strong sense of disgust rising in her heart. She immediately picked up her bag from the shelf, wanting only to avoid the man and leave the restroom as quickly as possible.

Fortunately, the area near the restroom entrance was spacious enough, so Shen Jinsui simply stepped to the other side.

The middle-aged man suddenly looked up, leering at the girl in front of him, then moved a few steps to the side and blocked her way.

The next second, that extremely unfriendly gaze fell on her again.

The middle-aged man's eyes darted back and forth, his expression lewd and disgusting.

He was already drunk and his mind was naturally unclear. When he saw this beautiful and delicate girl with a curvaceous figure, he completely lost his basic rationality.

He didn't even have time to think carefully about whether he could afford to mess with the girl in front of him; all he could think about were all sorts of despicable things.

The middle-aged man let out a burp, smiled maliciously, and slowly approached her, speaking in a flirtatious tone: "Little beauty, are you alone? Want to play with me for a bit?"

Shen Jinsui felt a chill run down her spine and reflexively took a few steps back, shouting sharply, "You're insane, get out of here!"

The middle-aged man chuckled dismissively at her attitude and staggered toward her.

Shen Jinsui frowned, immediately took a few steps to the side, looked around at his surroundings, and then stared warily at the person in front of him.

"She's a pretty girl with a temper, I like that."

As soon as he finished speaking, he rushed towards Shen Jinsui.

In an instant, a scream suddenly rang out—

"what!"

This was an incredibly tragic scream.

It originates from middle-aged men.

Just as he lunged forward, Shen Jinsui swiftly and accurately kicked him in his groin, giving him no time to react, and then kicked him in the back of the knee.

Then, Shen Jinsui kicked the middle-aged man in the lower abdomen.

He had no chance to resist and knelt down completely.

At that moment, Shen Jinsui calmly withdrew her foot.

Then, she casually lifted her foot and stomped hard on the middle-aged man's back with her high heels.

Throughout the process, she not only used all her strength, but also employed skillful techniques, and the cracking sound of bones shifting could be clearly heard.

Shen Jinsui's gaze slowly swept over the middle-aged man who had collapsed on the ground. He saw that the man's face was contorted in pain, and he was clutching his stomach and wailing incoherently.

They were in such a sorry state that it was almost unbearable to look at.

Shen Jinsui looked at him with disgust and rolled her eyes. She then quickly straightened her long dress, thankfully it was a slightly loose skirt.

However, her outfit today limited her performance, leaving her feeling somewhat unsatisfied.

She has been practicing various self-defense techniques since she was a child, and after an accident a few years ago, she intensified her training in this area.

Shen Jinsui stared expressionlessly at the middle-aged man on the ground, her red lips curving slightly as she spoke in a chilling voice, "My name is Shen Jinsui. If you want to sue me—I'm ready anytime."

Her actions just now were entirely legitimate self-defense, and she refused to believe that this middle-aged sleazy man could win the case.

Of course, Shen Jinsui wasn't afraid of the middle-aged sleazy man suing her at all; the Cheng family's legal team wasn't just getting paid high salaries for nothing.

After saying that, she casually strode out of the restroom.

After Shen Jinsui left, the group of people who had been standing in the hidden corner slowly walked out, all of them shocked and incredulous.

However, there was one exception—Zhou Yancong.

He leaned lazily against the wall, a hint of appreciation and a faint smile appearing in his deep, dark eyes.

How interesting, it turns out to be a red rose with thorns.

A hint of admiration flashed in Ye Jinwen's eyes. He turned to look at Jiang Yining standing beside him and chuckled, "Is your friend that fierce?"

Jiang Yining looked bewildered and surprised, gently shook her head, and said slowly, "I only found out today too..."

She had no idea that Shen Jinsui possessed such impressive self-defense skills, and she was quite surprised at the moment.

He Sinian and Xu Tingzhou both glanced at Zhou Yancong without leaving a trace.

Wow, a peacock spreading its tail feathers!

This is an expression that shows someone completely absorbed in something without even realizing it.

Not long ago, as soon as they went downstairs, they heard an unpleasant and indifferent voice.

Jiang Yining immediately recognized Shen Jinsui's voice and instinctively worried that something might have happened to her, so she quickly pulled Ye Jinwen forward to help.

Zhou Yancong also recognized Shen Jinsui's voice and went with them.

Xu Tingzhou and He Sinian naturally wouldn't miss the chance to watch the excitement, so they followed along.

At a critical moment, just as Zhou Yancong was about to step forward to help Shen Jinsui, she took matters into her own hands and resolved the situation.

The series of movements were swift and decisive, combining ruthless force with skillful execution.

The commotion in the restroom naturally attracted the attention of the club staff, but Zhou Yancong had his bodyguards stop them, leaving Shen Jinsui free to do as she pleased.

Now that the show was over, Zhou Yancong ordered his bodyguards to throw the middle-aged man out, and also instructed the club manager to delete the surveillance footage and permanently ban him from ever coming to the Beijing club again.

Zhou Yancong also had someone investigate his background and instructed them to teach him a lesson he deserved.

The others watched silently as Zhou Yancong did all this. This man, known as the "Cold-Faced Buddha" by the people of Beijing, had actually begun to have worldly desires.

Zhou Yancong ignored their teasing and mocking looks and turned to walk forward.

After Shen Jinsui returned home, her mother, Shen Jinzhi, appeared on her phone screen as a caller ID.

She answered the phone quickly and greeted her softly, "Mom."

"Sui Sui, do you live in Yujing Garden?"

Shen Jinsui's parents went abroad for a trip last week, and they learned a few days ago that their beloved daughter was staying at Yujingyuan.

Shen Jinsui walked to the central island counter, filled a glass with ice water from the water dispenser, took a few sips, and replied, "Mmm."

Shen Jinzhi knew her daughter wanted to live alone, so she didn't try to persuade her to go back to the old house. After thinking for a moment, she said, "Sui Sui, the house in Yujingyuan is still a bit small. How about we find you another place to live? Wealth Mansion or a villa on the canal bank, or any other place will do."

Shen Jinsui owns many properties in Beijing, but she currently plans to live here.

Yujingyuan is located in Beijing's CBD, which is close to her workplace and convenient for transportation.

Upon hearing this, she looked around. The house she was currently living in was a two-story detached villa, which was just right for one person.

The entire villa is in a European palace style, with milky white as the main color and champagne and light pink as the secondary colors. It is exquisite and luxurious yet stylish, while also exuding a sweet and girlish charm.

She walked to the living room, sat down on the sofa, and replied to her mother with a smile, her voice light and cheerful: "No need, the place I live in now is very nice, it's close to my workplace."

Shen Jinzhi was stunned when she heard this. She and her husband had just gone on a trip abroad, and now her precious daughter was going to work?

She then asked, "Sui Sui, where are you going to work?"

"Nebula Animation".

"If you want to work, you can go to Lingyue. Wouldn't it be better to work in your own company?"

Shen Jinsui replied to her mother, "But Lingyue's company doesn't have any involvement in the comics industry."

Shen Jinzhi sighed softly, "I think it's easier for you to work in your own company, where you can choose your position at will."

Shen Jinsui replied helplessly, "Working at Nebula Animation is fine with me too."

"Alright then." Shen Jinzhi didn't say much more, just muttered a few words out of habit.

Then she added, "Tomorrow I'll arrange for a bodyguard to stay by your side, and Uncle Zhang will pick you up and drop you off at get off work every day."

Shen Jinsui declined her arrangement, "No need, I plan to drive myself to work. I'll call Uncle Zhang when I need him to drive. You don't need to worry about it, just enjoy your trip with Dad."

Hearing her daughter's words, Shen Jinzhi couldn't help but try to persuade her: "But when you were studying abroad, we arranged bodyguards to protect you secretly..."
