I insist

Chapter 516: Revenge

"Really? The more you say that, the more interested I become. I want to see just how capable she is, and where she lives."

Duan Jiayan looked at the woman and asked, word by word.

The woman looked at Duan Jiayan. Although she was afraid of Song Miqiu and her threats, she felt that Song Miqiu was just capable and didn't have much status.

Duan Jiayan was the city lord's wife's younger brother, and she felt that Song Miqiu couldn't possibly deal with him, and that he might be able to avenge her.

After thinking it through, the woman stammered out where Song Miqiu lived.

"Are you really going? She's very capable, and she might not be afraid of anyone at all. It wouldn't be good if you got into danger," the woman said softly.

Duan Jiayan completely ignored the woman's words, coldly snorting, "The one who should be worried now isn't me, but her. I'll make sure she knows..."

Who did she offend to dare act so arrogantly here? Doesn't she know who's in charge here?

After saying this, Duan Jiayan left. The woman kept staring at his back, secretly praying that he would avenge her.

The reason Duan Jiayan was angry was that he felt Song Miqiu was slapping him in the face, so he had to regain his dignity.

After finding out where Song Miqiu was, he stormed over to her place.

As it happened, Song Miqiu did not go out today. When she saw the person who kicked the door open, she narrowed her eyes. Although there was no expression on her face, anyone who knew her well could tell that she was very unhappy.

Duan Jiayan thought someone had hit a woman, but he didn't expect it to be an old woman. He was speechless for a moment.

Seeing him standing in the courtyard without saying a word, Song Miqiu said calmly, "Trespassing is illegal. It seems I'll have to go to the City Lord's Mansion later."

"Tell the city lord that the jurisdiction here is a bit too lax; anyone can freely visit other people's homes."

Hearing her words, Duan Jiayan snapped out of his daze. He glared fiercely at Song Miqiu and said loudly, "You're the one who hit someone! I'm telling you, you'd better go and apologize to her right now!"

And you'd better get out of here, or I'll make you regret it.

Song Miqiu suddenly smiled and said, "So you're here to settle scores with that woman. But is that all you can say when you threaten someone?"

"You have no right to order me around, telling me to apologize to her. Guards, throw him out!"

The guards were already waiting on the side. Upon hearing Song Miqiu's words, they appeared in front of Duan Jiayan without saying a word.

Duan Jiayan stared at the person who had suddenly appeared in front of him, momentarily stunned. By the time he came to his senses, he was already lying on the ground outside the door.

The people watching him were all people he had brought back from home; they looked at each other, unsure whether they should make a move.

"What are you all still standing there for? Hurry up and help me up!" Duan Jiayan said angrily.

The servants standing to the side quickly helped Duan Jiayan up and cautiously asked, "Young Master, what are we going to do next?"

"What are you doing? Go in and arrest that old woman! She dared to send people to throw me out, making me lose face so badly!"

I want to embarrass her too! Go inside right now and drag that old woman out! Go! Didn't you hear me?

Duan Jiayan shouted loudly at them.

Seeing that they didn't make any move, he raised his foot and kicked them all, making them stumble.

The men had no choice but to bite the bullet and rush in. They hadn't closed the door when they threw Duan Jiayan out, so they entered the courtyard without any trouble.

But as soon as they put their feet on the ground in the yard, before they could even make a move, they were thrown out.

Moreover, when they fell to the ground, they were still piled up together.

Duan Jiayan watched his men being thrown out and said with great disdain, "You lot are so incompetent that you even got thrown out. It's shameful."

No, I have to teach her a lesson today, otherwise I'll be too ashamed to go home.

As he spoke, Duan Jiayan rushed inside, but just as he stood at the door, the guards who had thrown him out earlier reappeared and beat him up.

And to teach him a lesson, they even broke one of his arms.

"Ah~" Duan Jiayan cried out in pain.

After the servants got up from the ground, they heard his shout. They rushed to him and were about to fight with the guards.

But before they could even make a move, they were already beaten to a pulp by the guards.

Seeing that this family was not to be trifled with, the servants quickly helped Duan Jiayan leave, fearing that the guards would catch up and beat them up again.

Duan Jiayan screamed in pain, and his voice could be heard the whole way. The people looked at him with furrowed brows and whispered among themselves.

When they arrived home, Duan Jiayan was still shouting. Seeing that the servants didn't move, he frowned in pain and said, "What are you all doing here?"

"Why aren't you calling a doctor right now? My arm is about to break! Aren't you going to do anything about it?"

Upon hearing this, the servants hurried to find a doctor. Just as they stepped out the door, they saw the city lord's wife approaching with a doctor.

"You don't need to look for him anymore. I've already taken him away. How did he end up with a broken arm?"

The city lord's wife entered the room, glanced indifferently at Duan Jiayan lying on the bed, and then focused her gaze on the doctor beside her.

"Please have the doctor take a look at him and see if there's any hope for his arm."

The doctor nodded to the city lord's wife, then stepped forward, gently squeezed his arm, and replied, "Don't worry, madam, his arm is fine."

With proper care, he will recover. Avoid any strenuous activity for now, otherwise he may suffer permanent disability.

"Then the doctor should treat her quickly," the city lord's wife said with a smile.

Then, she turned her gaze to Duan Jiayan: "Did you hear that? Take good care of yourself, otherwise if you become crippled, who will take care of you every day?"

Duan Jiayan nodded repeatedly: "I understand, sister, please don't say anymore. By the way, how did you know I was injured and how did you happen to bring a doctor with you?"

"The whole city knows you're in so much pain, how could I not know? Someone from the manor went out and saw it, so they told me."

What did you do? You're so badly injured. Did you offend someone?

The city lord's wife knew her younger brother Duan Jiayan's personality well; he must have offended someone to become like this.

"No, I didn't do anything. It was just an accident. Sis, don't worry about it. I'll handle my own business."

Duan Jiayan clearly didn't want the city lord's wife to know about his embarrassing actions.
