Before Xia Zhi could speak, He Jinnan strode over, his face stern as he glanced at Zhong Chen and wrapped his arm around Xia Zhi's shoulder, asking with concern, "What happened? Did he bully you?"

Seeing He Jinnan, Xia Zhi breathed a sigh of relief and whispered, "It's nothing now."

Zhong Chen, recognizing He Jinnan, was even more furious after being beaten by Xia Zhi, as it was completely unexpected that she would hit him back. Without saying anything more, he gave them both a harsh stare and stormed off in anger.

At that moment, He Jinhong and his group approached.

"Little sister-in-law, who was that guy? Did he bully you?" he asked.

Not wanting to make a scene, Xia Zhi vaguely replied, "A colleague, just a bit annoying."
