An Xiaoning had originally thought that he was going to smash the bottle against her. Just as she was about to stand up, he actually aimed the mouth of the wine bottle at her and poured all the wine inside onto her body.
With her white blouse completely drenched in wine, the inner garment she wore, which was originally not obvious, could suddenly be seen extremely clearly.
At this point, An Xiaoning was completely enraged.
She stood up slowly and, with a wry smile on her face, she snorted, "It looks like if I don't teach you a lesson today, you really won't know what's good for you and whose territory this is!"
Before Benson could even react, his whole body was tilted backward and, with a loud clang, he landed on the coffee table. The wine bottles and glasses on the table crashed onto the floor with a crisp and clear piercing sound.
He had yet to get up on his feet when An Xiaoning raised her leg to step on his abdomen.
What truly shocked him was that she was obviously a small and petite woman who did not look strong, but he was lying there unable to move an inch at all. It was as if he had been weighed down by a huge mountain.
When his two arms reached out to grab her leg, they were both dislocated from his shoulder by her mercilessly.
"How could you..."
An Xiaoning reached out and opened a wine bottle in a calm and composed manner before forcing the bottle into his mouth. Benson looked like he was seized with terror as he continued to gulp the wine down.
As she was ultimately afraid of the trouble that would arise if he choked to death, An Xiaoning stopped in time and removed her leg from his abdomen.
"Get down on your knees."
He got down from the coffee table and was about to shout toward the door when his jaw was also dislocated by her. With his saliva flowing out continuously, he wanted to get out but a gun was suddenly aimed directly at his head.
"Get down on your knees, " she reiterated.
Benson did not dare to go tough on her and could only let his knees give in as he knelt down in front of her.
"I'd originally wanted to have a good business talk with you. Doing business with someone is naturally about having a pleasant cooperation. If you didn't want to work together, then you should have just said it outright. What was that all about? I really don't know who gave you such guts, but I now have the urge to teach you a lesson." An Xiaoning shouted toward the door, "Shixin!"
The door was pushed open, and Fan Shixin poked his head in. Upon witnessing the sight before him, he was rather surprised."Young Madam."
"Print two sets of the contract again, but I want an additional clause stating that if the contract is violated or intentionally not carried out, the side that violates this will have to compensate ten billion dollars. Also, get me a thin coat."
"Okay."
Thereafter, Fan Shixin went back out and a terrified Benson started to ask, "Can't I just sign this contract now?"
"Sorry about that, but no, " she answered aggressively.
While looking at her with a fierce glare, Benson asked, "You're doing things like this, Ms. An, aren't you worried that I'll get back at you for this?"
"Great, I welcome that with open arms. But before Mr. Benson gets back at me, you should ensure the safety of your family first. Because they may be implicated and lose their lives anytime!"
"You evil woman! You caused Jin Qingyan's death, didn't you? That's why you're running the company now while he's nowhere to be seen! You're a scheming one, seriously!!!"
He was about to use his hand to touch the part of his head that the gun was aimed at, but because his shoulder was dislocated, there was no way he could raise his arm.
The intense pain made his face scrunch up.
"If you haven't learned how to speak properly, you better shut up. Otherwise, I won't be held accountable if the thing in my hands fires."
While cursing her in his heart, Benson was thinking about his useless bunch of bodyguards outside. He was here suffering and none of them actually came to check what was going on?!
When Fan Shixin returned, it was more than half an hour later.
When the new contract was passed to An Xiaoning, she placed it on the table and relocated his right shoulder. Then, pointing her gun at him, she remarked, "Sign your name on it and press your thumbprint as well."
At this point, he simply had no room to bargain at all.
When signing his name, he intentionally wrote it wrongly. Realizing this, she moved the gun in her hand."Are you really asking for death?"
He hurriedly corrected it and pressed his thumbprint on the contract.
With both contracts signed, An Xiaoning picked up one of them and put away her gun. Thereafter, she put on her coat in a slow and leisurely manner and said to Benson, who had exerted much effort to stand up, "I'm giving you a final reminder. If I find out that you have any intention of getting back at me, then I'm sorry. I'm not a saint, I promise I'll make you pay a horrible price for your actions."
While her tone did not sound harsh, every word of hers was like a sharp weapon placed at Benson's throat, making him unable to say a word at all.
After she was done speaking, she then left the room.
Benson was left all alone inside.
Thereafter, he picked up the contract and went out as well. When his men witnessed the state he was in when he came out, they were all thoroughly shocked.
"CEO Ben, what happened to you?"
"What happened?" He raised his leg and threw a kick at the bodyguard who asked the question."Were all of you dead when you were standing out here? Couldn't any of you hear the movements and voices inside?"
"CEO Ben..." The man who was kicked by him was full of grievances."You were the one who said, without your instructions, none of us was allowed to enter no matter what."
Upon recalling that he had made such an instruction, Benson's expression turned ghastly.
Even though all of his men could guess what had happened inside, none of them dared to question him, out of fear that they would be the next one getting kicked.
After leaving the nightclub and getting into his car, Benson finally started to carefully read the contract under the lights in his car to see what clause had been added.
Reading it from beginning to end, he found that the only clause that had been added was indeed what she had mentioned earlier.
However, with that clause added, it meant that their business cooperation had to take place by hook or by crook. There was no room to go back on his word.
He then placed the contract on the car seat beside him and said indignantly, "That damn woman."
"CEO Ben, do you want to find someone to teach her a lesson?"
"Of course not! That bitch is not someone to be messed with! Drive the car back!"
"Yes..."
He had thought that he would be able to take advantage of her during the meeting tonight. Little did he expect that not only would he be unable to do so, he even had to suffer losses on his part.
As compared to the horrible mood he was in, An Xiaoning was feeling much more comfortable.
Although the beginning of the night had dampened her spirits slightly, her mood slowly recovered later on.
With his eyes fixed ahead, Fan Shixin asked, "Young Madam, how did you and Mr. Benson get into a conflict?"
"After talking to him for a while, I could already feel that he was not sincere about signing the contract. So be it then. After all, it's not like we have to do business with his company. However, if he had not tried to take advantage of me, I wouldn't have forced him to sign it."
Fan Shixin understood the situation instantly."Young Madam, I still think you went light on him. If it were Young Sir, he might have killed him on the spot or left him half-dead."
In a calm and composed voice, An Xiaoning responded, "Forget it, it's fine that I merely taught him a lesson."
When they reached Wei Ni Estate, Bei Qi was sitting on his wheelchair at the entrance of the estate. It looked like he was waiting for her.
Fan Shixin stopped the car, allowing An Xiaoning to get off. He then drove the car away.
