Chapter 118 - 118: Getting Involved with the Old Man
The man was dragging Xu Chaomu, trying to pull her towards the car.
“Wu wu…” Xu Chaomu struggled desperately, using all her strength; her little face turned red. She kicked her feet against the ground, trying to reach something she could hook her feet onto.
But the sound from the loudspeakers on the playground was too loud, and nobody noticed what was happening in this corner.
Xu Chaomu knew she couldn’t let them take her away, for if she was taken away, her death would be extremely miserable.
She had a bright future ahead of her, she couldn’t die!
Suddenly, her foot hooked onto a discarded water pipe, she clung to it for dear life, struggling furiously!
“Let go of your foot, or I’ll chop off your hand!” the man warned viciously. “Wu wu…” Xu Chaomu shook her head vigorously, staring at them.
Can’t let go!
Must not let go, even if it kills me!
“Stop talking nonsense with her!” Yao Yue stepped forward, “Kick her a few times, and she’ll be subdued!”
How venomous a woman’s heart can be, Xu Chaomu truly wanted to bite Yao Yue to death.
The man, upon hearing Yao Yue’s words, had a ferocious look on his face. He raised his right leg high, gathered all his strength, and aimed a kick at Xu Chaomu’s abdomen.
Xu Chaomu closed her eyes in terror, her lips turned pale, and her mind went blank.
In the blink of an eye, just as his foot was about to hit Xu Chaomu, a pair of men’s black leather shoes got there first, aiming a kick at the man’s chest, sending him toppling over!
The man lost his balance, his vision darkened, and he staggered backward.
Before his hand could reach the wall for support, the black leather shoes kicked him fiercely again, hitting right in the center of his chest; the man immediately spat out a mouthful of blood.
That kick was delivered with an enormous force, with all the kicker’s strength behind it!
“Motherfucker, don’t you know your place? Not just anyone can touch Xu Chaomu!” A deep and menacing voice sounded from above.
The aura was powerful, the attitude ruthless, and the air around seemed to suddenly get several degrees colder.
“Ah ah…” Xu Chaomu was suddenly released by the man, but her foot was still hooked on the waste pipe, and she wasn’t steady. She swayed for a moment before falling forward!
Just as she was about to fall to the ground, the owner of the black leather shoes hooked her waist with one hand, holding her tight.
The fresh and pleasant scent reached Xu Chaomu’s nose, her heart began pounding, and her lips curled into an involuntary smile.
If it wasn’t Shen Chi, then who else could this person be?
She buried herself in his chest, her little claws gripping his clothes, refusing to let go.
He wasn’t wearing a suit today, nor a tie, just a dark gray sweater. Though casual, it couldn’t hide his powerful presence.
The sunlight poured down, making his handsome face look exceptionally refined.
Xu Chaomu looked up and saw his chin. He was pursing his lips, his face full of annoyance, every part of his face was tightly drawn, the lines of his face were firm and resolute.
Xu Chaomu couldn’t help but nuzzle him a few more times, she loved rubbing against him, like a kitten against him.
Rub rub rub.
Rubbing back and forth, rub rub rub.
“Fourth Brother, why are you here?” Xu Chaomu clutched his sweater, batting her large eyes at him.
How did he come to school, wasn’t he worried about losing face?
“Passing by,” Shen Chi said indifferently, and as he looked down, he met Xu Chaomu’s large eyes.
The man with the gold chain walked up, smoking a cigarette, having seen that this man was out of the ordinary from those two kicks.
“Brother, mind your business. This wild girl scratched my car, and I was discussing compensation with her,” the man said.
Xu Chaomu seized Shen Chi, tilting her small face up, “Fourth Brother, he’s talking nonsense, he wants to hit me!”
Shen Chi lowered his head, with a mock smile, leaned close to Xu Chaomu’s ear, his hot breath brushing her earlobe, “You remember to call me Fourth Brother at a time like this? What would you do if I didn’t step in?”
“If you don’t step in, then I’ll…” Xu Chaomu glared at him, pretending to be fierce.
Shen Chi raised an eyebrow, “You’ll do what?”
“I’ll… cry…”
Having said that, Xu Chaomu leaned into his chest again, sniveling and tearing up as if for real.
. ‘ Shen Chi’s mouth twitched, really embarrassing.
The man with the gold chain, seeing that Shen Chi completely ignored him, felt he couldn’t save face and raised his voice, “Brother, please step aside. You’d
best not meddle in my affairs, otherwise, many things might not see where they’re going.”
Only then did Shen Chi turn his head, shifting his gaze from Xu Chaomu to the man.
“Don’t call me brother, you’re not worthy.”
It was a very calm voice, very plain words, but coming from Shen Chi’s mouth, they were exceptionally chilly and severe.
The man clearly felt insulted; he took the cigarette from his mouth, threw it under his foot, and ground it fiercely, as if crushing an ant.
“Don’t jinx your future by talking too big. If you meddle too much, don’t blame me for being impolite,” the man said again.
Yao Yue had seen Shen Chi before; it was him who had injured her and her buddies last time.
Yao Yue ran to the man’s side, grabbing his arm, “Uncle, it was him, he’s the one who hit me last time!”
“Oh?” the man said disdainfully, “Enemies often cross paths; that saying really is true.”
The man who had been knocked to the ground by Shen Chi managed to stand up, holding his chest, his face twisted in ferocity.
“Yao Yue, if you hadn’t been so arrogant, why would my Fourth Brother have hit you? You got what you deserved!”
Now that Xu Chaomu had some backbone, as long as Shen Chi stood by her side, she felt secure.
“Fourth Brother?” Yao Yue’s ears perked up, immediately displaying a sneer, “Where did you get a ‘Fourth Brother’ from? You little slut, you really know how to seduce men. Not content with Lou Yanli, you’re flirting with old men too.
How many men have you slept with? You’re truly shameless!”
Xu Chaomu didn’t want to argue with Yao Yue, it was beneath her to get into an argument with such a classless girl.
So, to stir the pot, she tugged on Shen Chi’s sleeve, “Fourth Brother, she said you’re an old man.”
Her big eyes blinked pityingly.
Shen Chi glanced at Xu Chaomu with disdain; she was shifting the whole mess onto him.
However, his look at her was one of tenderness and indulgence.
“So, what do you say we should do?” Shen Chi asked Xu Chaomu on purpose.
“Fourth Brother, I’m on your side. She dares to insult you by calling you an old man, and I simply can’t tolerate it. You must know, Fourth Brother, you’re young and handsome, graceful, talented, and distinguished. You might bear it, but I cannot.”
“Bootlicker,” Shen Chi said with a smile, and all the scenery around lost its color.
The sunlight was just right, shining on his sweater, soft as jade. At this moment, he seemed like a beautiful gentleman stepped out from the pages of a DOOR, moaest ana gentle.
However, this gentleness was only for Xu Chaomu alone.
A moment later, his piercing cold gaze swept over, turning to the other three people in front of him.
The surrounding air suddenly dropped by three degrees, enveloped by an icy chill.
Xu Chaomu looked at no one else, just tilting her little head to gaze at Shen Chi, her eyes shining.
Never getting enough of looking at him.
“Xu Chaomu, ” Yao Yue started again. She had run away in a panic last time, but this time, with her uncle supporting her, she had to regain her face.
Her uncle was someone to be feared in C City; anyone who heard her uncle’s name was filled with dread..
