The hard skull collided with the floor, making banging sounds. Blood kept flowing from her forehead, down her face and neck, and finally into her collar, leaving a pool of dark blood on the floor.
Yan Luo climbed up from the ground, looking miserable, and glared at Yan Xi viciously. All her rationality was gone now after the humiliation. She only wanted Yan Xi to die with her at this moment.
“yan Xi, you’re really an ungrateful dog. If it wasn’t me who protected you in the Yan family, do you think you could have survived?”
“Thank you, Cousin. I’ll never forget your kindness.”
“Of course you won’t forget it.” Yan Luo laughed sinisterly. Coupled with the blood that dripped down from her face, she looked spooky.
“Don’t you remember how much you loved Zhang Ming? You once knelt down to me, begging me to lend you money so that you could give it to him. How could you forget that? You told me that if I didn’t lend you money, you would die with Zhang Ming.”
Borrow money? What a joke. This was just one of the stupid things the Host did. What had it got to do with her?
Yan Xi didn’t care, but when she looked down, she saw that Gu Shen’s eyes were cold and there was an unmistakable murderous aura.
“Are you done talking?”
His voice was chilling, as if it came straight from hell, making people tremble in fear.
When Yan Luo heard that, the smugness of her face turned into sneer and ridicule.
“Gu Shen, I’m saying this for your own good. Why are you still keeping a fickle woman like Yan Xi? She will cheat on you one day or the other.”
“It’s not your place to talk about what she did!”
“Gu…” Yan Luo’s voice was cut off, and then she felt a burning sensation on her face.
“L..” Gu Yi raised his hand and gave her face another smack.
Yan Luo lay on the ground and did not have the strength to get up.
Gu Shen lowered his eyes and said coldly, “Beat her to death. Make her remember.”
Because of Yan Luo, the dinner ended early tonight. Gu Yi called a few people to clean up the mess while he followed Yan Xi and the others down.
‘When Yan Xi looked at Fu Xing, she hid her aggressive expression and said embarrassedly. “Professor Fu, I’m really sorry. I’ll treat you to a meal another day.”
Fu Xing waved his hand to indicate it was alright. A good show was more interesting than a good meal. If Gu Shen didn’t get upset tonight, he was planning to talk to Yan Xi for a few more hours.
‘When Gu Yi opened the car door, Gu Shen got in first without saying a word, looking downcast.
Yan Xi bid goodbye to the people and got in, sitting next to Gu Shen.
The moment she closed the car door, her phone rang. She looked down and saw that it was a message from Yan Luo.
The message was not long and was filled with malice. “B*tch, just you wait!”
Without hesitation, Yan Xi blacklisted her.
Putting down the phone, Yan Xi looked at Gu Shen who was sitting next to her. The man had his eyes lowered and his expression was cold and distant, no different from when they first met.
At this moment, Yan Xi felt a strong sense of unease.
‘Was Gu Shen thinking of a way to divorce her and kick her out?
Yan Xi thought about it and was about to explain, “Gu Shen, actually I…”
“Does your body still hurt?”
Gu Shen suddenly tilted his head and looked at her with a deep gaze.
Yan Xi was stunned for a moment and blurted out, “It’s fine. I was bluffing her just now. Only water temperatures of 80 °C and above will cause serious damage, causing the skin to fester and swell. The mushroom soup was not even 80 °C. At most, it’ll be swollen and will disappear in a few days.”
Temperature of a person might change, but would their knowledge and intelligence?
Gu Shen became more doubtful, but he remained silent, not wanting to ask the question just yet.
“Why did he stop talking? He is obviously angry with me!” Yan Xi thought to herself.
She edged closer to Gu Shen and tugged at his sleeves.
“Gu Shen, don’t be angry because of what Yan Luo said. I’ve already forgotten about Zhang Ming. Now, I only have you in my heart. I promised you before so I will do my best to fulfill it. Don’t lose faith in me because of what Yan Luo said, please..”
