Chapter 574 Wei Lan VS - Zhu Ning Part II

Wei Lan yelped, feeling several locks of her hair come off of her head from Zhu Ning's violent claws. Her eyes flashed with pain, hatred and fury. Then she started retaliating at Zhu Ning, clawing and hitting and pulling hair as well.

Then she noticed that there was now a crowd of people by the spa's entrance. They were recording the altercation on video with their phones. Wei Lan gritted her teeth and stopped fighting, enduring Zhu Ning's violent attacks instead. There was no way she would let this crazy woman destroy the good reputation she had built up since returning to the country!

"Help! Heeeeeelp meeeee! This craaaaaazy woman is attacking meeeeee! She's going to kill meeeeeeee!" Wei Lan started crying and screaming in a pitiful manner.

A group of men wearing black suits rushed inside the spa. They were Jin Liwei's subordinates who were now working as Wei Lan's bodyguards. They didn't accompany her inside the spa because she told them that they didn't match the intimate and feminine ambience of the place. She instructed them to go walk around the mall and just wait for her call when she was ready to be picked up. This was the reason why it took them so long to respond to the commotion. They were at the mall's food court eating some snacks when they noticed a number of excited people heading to the same direction.

"Come, quick! Iris Long's mother is having a fight with another woman! Let's watch!"

"Dammit! Who dares bully Boss Iris' mom?!" someone roared before taking off his shoes and waving them in the air. "I'm gonna whack that witch with my mighty slippers!"

"Those are shoes, not slippers!"

"Shut up! Let's hurry! We gotta protect our boss' mom!"

"Yeah!"

The bodyguards became alarmed after overhearing what the people were saying. They immediately hurried to the spa and found that, indeed, Wei Lan was being beaten by a violent woman. They immediately rushed in to protect her, blocking her from the attacks.

Wei Lan's first instinct to such offensive insults was to fight eye for an eye and tooth for tooth. Her own anger was quickly exceeding her self-restraint. It was taking everything she had not to claw Zhu Ning's eyes out with her red talons. Fortunately, part of her consciousness was focused on the growing crowd by the entrance.

"What did you say, you crazy hag?! How dare you spout such hateful words to our boss' mom?! Slipper cannon!"

A shoe was thrown but failed to hit Zhu Ning, bouncing on the floor instead. She didn't even notice that someone threw something at her. She was too busy attacking Wei Lan.

"Slipper bazooka!"

Another shoe was thrown. This time, it hit Zhu Ning's back.

"Which bastard threw a smelly shoe at me?!!" Zhu Ning shrieked, shooting a furious glare at the crowd.

"It's not me!" a barefooted man shouted. "I'm innocent! Stop spouting lies!"

"Yeah! I didn't see nor smelled any smelly shoe!" the barefooted man's friend supported him. "Maybe something is wrong with your eyes and nose!"

"And your brain, too!"

Right at that moment, the barefooted man's phone began ringing.

"Oh, stars above

Oh, land of dreams

I failed but I'm still dreaming"

Everyone present recognized the song, including Zhu Ning.

"Shut that damn phone off!"

However, the ringtone continued playing.

"No matter how far a black star falls

It's still a star that can glow again"

The two Black Stars were members of the notorious online troll group Slippers Army. They were triggered by Zhu Ning's offensive words.

"Fuck! Bro, give me your slippers!" the barefooted man demanded his friend. "I'm gonna shove them down this dirty-mouthed hag's throat! How dare she say those things about our boss!"

"Wait a sec!" His friend actually began removing his shoes.

"Don't you dare take off those shoes! Move aside and let us handle this," the mall security warned them. "If you don't comply, we'll report you and turn you in for causing trouble when the police arrives."

The two Black Stars froze before giving a sheepish smile.

"Oh, ahahaha! Who's causing trouble? Not us! We're peace lovers!"

"Yeah! We follow the example of our boss and act with respect, dignity and elegance. Ahahaha Don't mind us, please continue doing your job. We'll be on our way now. Bye!"

The two started retreating.

"Hey! Go get your shoes first," the security guard said.

"Yeah! It's called the 'I woke up with no shoes like this' trend! It's super popular right now! Buh-bye!"

After the two trolls were gone, frightened by the threat of being reported to the police, Zhu Ning returned inside the spa to attack and rage at Wei Lan once again.

"You mother and daughter are the same! Both of you are fame-hungry sluts! I'm going to scratch your faces off! Let's see if the people will still love you once the two of you become ugly!"

Wei Lan was well aware of the many phones recording them right now, so she maintained her calm poise mixed with a combination of frightened, pitiful and indignant expression.

"We never saw eye to eye since back then, Zhuuuuu Ning. But our conflict should remain only betweeeeeen the two of us. Don't draaaaaaag my daughter into our conflict! You can curse at meeeeee but I won't allow you to baaaaaadmouth my daughter!"
