Chapter 331: I’m a Law-abiding Citizen Now

Nan Yan’s words somewhat relieved Yu Xiwen’s worries. After repeatedly reminding Nan Yan to stay safe, Yu Xiwen hung up the phone.
“How did Yanyan respond?” Luo Xiaojun asked eagerly when she saw Yu Xiwen hang up the phone.
“Yanyan said she’s going to rescue Kaian,” Yu Xiwen reassured her with a gentle pat on her back. “She told us to wait for her message and not to return to Jin City.”
“So, what should we do?” Luo Xiaojun remained deeply concerned, feeling at a loss.
Yu Xiwen looked grave, hesitated for a moment, and said, “Let’s follow Yanyan’s advice and wait for her message!”
He believed in Nan Yan; if she said she had a solution, then she definitely did! On the other side, after Nan Yan hung up the phone, Bai Chen shook his head in amazement.
“Little Yanyan, you really haven’t changed a bit.”
“Whoever has you as a friend is truly blessed by their ancestors.”
Nan Yan, even before her rebirth, valued her relationships and was fiercely loyal to her friends. Though difficult to get close to, once she accepted someone, they became like family to her.
Nan Yan retorted, “What about you? Did your ancestors also accumulate great virtue?”
Bai Chen sighed and replied, “I’m different, Little Yanyan. I’m not like those people with virtuous ancestors.”
In fact, Bai Chen was regarded as a bad omen in his family and had been cursed as such for several years. Now, the family regretted their actions and had been trying to persuade him to return.
But in this world, there were no free lunches. He had no intentions of going back. By not taking revenge after gaining power and influence, he was already giving face to the old man.
He had promised his old man that he wouldn’t take action against the Bai family during his lifetime. What happened after his death would depend on his mood.
Nan Yan understood Bai Chen’s situation, so she casually mentioned it and didn’t press further.
Once she had stopped being distracted, Nan Yan increased her driving speed.
Three and a half hours later, the black Rolls-Royce parked in front of a building.
Nan Yan swiftly unbuckled her seatbelt, opened the door, and stepped out of the car.
Bai Chen rubbed his temples, unbuckled his seatbelt, and followed her out of the car.
Before entering the building, he reached out to stop Nan Yan and smiled warmly. “Little Yanyan, for situations like this, you should stand behind me.
Your strength hasn’t fully recovered yet. Just be a spectator.”
Fighting is not something that the little fairy, Yanyan, should personally engage in. Her hands are so important; injuring them, let alone breaking the skin, would be unacceptable.
“Okay,” Nan Yan agreed casually.
With Bai Chen here, indeed, there was no need for her to get directly involved.
Inside the tightly closed room, Yu Kaian was gagged, his hands and feet tied to a chair, and several desperate men around him were tormenting him.
These men were not the ones who had gone to the An family in the morning, but they were also involved in this situation and facing dire consequences.
Compared to the ones who had visited the An family, their situation was far more challenging.
They truly had no way out.
Nan Yan’s trending topic had not only cut off their livelihood but also exposed them to legal consequences. Given the crimes they had committed, they might spend the rest of their lives in prison.
The combination of anger and fear led them to use Yu Kaian as a scapegoat, subjecting him to relentless beatings.
With his mouth gagged, Yu Kaian couldn’t even scream. He could only instinctively curl up to protect his vital organs from further damage.
“You little brat, you’d better pray that your dad can get that bitch Nan Yan to trade places with you, or you’ll die here today!”
“She won’t let us live, and we won’t let you live either. Even if it means dying, we’ll use you as a shield.”
“You’re quite resilient, not uttering a word. It seems we haven’t beaten you hard enough. We’ll beat you to death!”
They completely disregarded the fact that Yu Kaian couldn’t make a sound because they had gagged him and continued their brutal assault.
Yu Kaian’s body tensed up, and his eyes, swollen and bruised, shot forth a fierce determination.
These scum! These despicable individuals!
Outside the door, Nan Yan pressed her ear to the door, listening to the sounds from inside. Her face darkened.
“Little Yanyan, stay calm; I’ll handle this!”
Bai Chen quickly pulled Nan Yan away from the door and took action himself. He kicked the locked door open.
The men inside, who had been beating Yu Kaian, instinctively turned their heads to see what was happening.
Then, they felt a rush of wind.
And after that, it was an intense pain coursing through their bodies. In just a few seconds, they had received countless blows from fists and feet.
One by one, the men were in pain, groaning and writhing on the ground.
Yu Kaian widened his eyes as he watched the two people who had suddenly burst in.
Was that handsome man even human?
His speed had almost surpassed the limits of human capability, and his movements were so fast that they appeared as mere blurs.
By the time Yu Kaian realized what was happening, the men who had been bullying him were all defeated!
Nan Yan approached Yu Kaian, removed the tape that had been sealing his mouth, and then proceeded to untie him.
“How are you feeling? Can you hold on?” she asked.
Yu Kaian’s brain was momentarily dazed by Nan Yan’s stunning beauty. Upon hearing her question, he lowered his head in a fluster and stammered, “I… I can.”
“Wait here for a moment,” she instructed Yu Kaian before walking towards the men lying on the ground.
A cold aura surrounded her, and her eyes exuded an icy chill.
Seeing her in this state, Bai Chen knew that she was genuinely angry.
He looked at the men on the ground with a hint of pity in his eyes.
Offending Nan Yan was likely a fate worse than death.
He clicked his tongue and asked, “How do you want to deal with them?”
“Naturally, I’ll hand them over to the police,” Nan Yan replied calmly. “I’m a law-abiding citizen now.”
Bai Chen wore an expression that clearly said, “Do you really expect me to believe that?”
However, in his gaze, Nan Yan nonchalantly took out a small bottle containing pills from her pocket.
“But before we turn them over to the police, I’d like to offer them some candy,” she added.
Bai Chen chuckled, and his eyes indicated that he had expected as much.
Ignoring Bai Chen, Nan Yan poured out the same number of pills as the men on the ground.
Without her needing to do it herself, Bai Chen willingly took on the task of feeding them.
He forcefully shoved one pill into each person’s mouth.
Then, Nan Yan calmly took out her phone and called the police.
“Little Yanyan, do we have to wait for the police to arrive?” Bai Chen asked, not particularly fond of dealing with law enforcement.
“Yes, if you don’t want to meet the police, go wait in the car for me,” Nan Yan replied.
Bai Chen nodded. “Alright, I’ll wait for you in the car.”
Nan Yan handed him the car keys and then returned to Yu Kaian’s side.
Bai Chen left briskly, taking the keys with him as he headed outside. Yu Kaian stared at Nan Yan and suddenly asked, “Are you Nan Yan?”
“It’s me,” Nan Yan replied.
She handed her phone to him and said, “First, call your parents; they are very worried about you.”
Yu Kaian’s own phone had been broken during the altercation with those men earlier.
“Th-thank you,” Yu Kaian mumbled, lowering his head slightly and avoiding looking at Nan Yan’s face.
Her beauty was too overwhelming, and he dared not stare too long.
Looking at her for too long might lead to his downfall!
As Yu Kaian was about to call Luo Xiaojun, Nan Yan’s phone lit up.
The screen displayed two words: “Big Brother.”
Due to nervousness, Yu Kaian quickly swiped to answer the call. Even more anxious, he held the phone to his ear and said, “Hello….”
