“Is it Wang Xinyan? Maybe you should restrain your boyfriend a little? At least make him not stand out as much.” Jiang Chen smiled standing in front of her.
“Boyfriend?” She suddenly started giggling but quickly returned to her elegant self. With a look of rumination, she looked at Jiang Chen. “Mr. Jiang is very humorous. That’s not a boyfriend, it’s more of a puppy.”
Stunned, Jiang Chen didn’t think she would be so direct. He then ridiculed.
“Even if it is a puppy, it’s better to keep in control of him. Since sometimes, the puppy’s behavior indirectly reflects the taste of the owner.”
For a man to attend to her this much, her identity must not be so simple.
Although he was not afraid of anything, with the attitude of less trouble is better, Jiang Chen cautiously chose to leave her some ground.
He only vaguely made fun of her to express his own displeasure.
As if she has already expected Jiang Chen to say this, Wang Xinyan paused but didn’t look angry. Instead, she seemed somewhat interested.
“Oh? If Mr. Jiang doesn’t like me having a puppy, I can let him go.”
“What does it have to do with me?”
“Is that so?”
She smiled mysteriously as she left an ambiguous answer. Wang Xinyan then passed him and entered the washroom.
Jiang Chen watched her silhouette disappear, confused. But then he shook his head and walked away.
When he returned to the restaurant, Jiang Chen discovered that his spot seemed to have been taken.
That man in the white suit was sitting in his seat.
Seeing this, he frowned. Though his expression was soon replaced by a stunning smile as he walked over.
“I can’t believe I am meeting you here, how have you been?”
The comical expression on his face appeared as if he has accomplished something already.
“I don’t know you, go away,” Xia Shiyu said coldly.
“You are still icy.” The man shook his head.
“Are you not afraid the woman you are trying to suck up will see all of this? While she is going to the washroom, you are hitting on another woman. Just like your usual tendency, Xu Youcheng. Xia Shiyu’s iciness soon changed into contempt.
“Hitting on you? You really think you are worth hitting on? I’m saying hi to an old friend.”
“I don’t remember having a friend like you.”
“The usual coldness. Looks like you have found a new boyfriend? So, did he touch your hand yet?” Xu Youcheng examined the coldness on her face.
Xia Shiyu inhaled deeply, suppressed the anger in her heart, and said calmly.
“I don’t have a boyfriend. Not before, not now.”
“Oh? Then how did you pay back the loan? I remember you lost your job, could it be…” Xu Youcheng slyly glanced at her chest. “Did you finally put down your proudness and got a sugar daddy? Damn …”
“Do you think I’m like you?” Xia Shiyu emotionlessly interrupted his rude words. Raising her chin, she mouthed, “a sucker without dignity.”
Xu Youcheng’s face was flushed with anger as he stood up.
“You-”
But before he could say anything else, a hand was on his shoulder.
Xu Youcheng paused, turned around, and was confronted with a smiling face.
“I agree with the perspective of this lady. Also, who allowed you to sit in my seat.” Jiang Chen smiled at him.
Seeing Jiang Chen, Xia Shiyu let out a breath as she felt calmer.
“Funny, did you open this restaurant? What if I did sit here?” Anger soon overwhelmed Xu Youcheng as he argued back.
Right after he finished his words, his mouth was slanted to the side.
Slap!
Jiang Chen without saying anything slapped him with his backhand while still holding onto his shoulder with the other.
“I don’t own the restaurant, and your butt is on your body so wherever you sit is your freedom. But now that I don’t like you, my hand is on my arm and how I beat you is also my freedom,” Jiang Chen said with narrowed eyes.
Seeing Jiang Chen’s action, Xia Shiyu was utterly stunned.
She didn’t expect, Jiang Chen with such a gentle attitude would strike so fiercely.
[Is it for me…]
When she thought about it, a red hue began to cover her face.
The slap took the air out of Xu Youcheng as he began to tremble. A strength equal to three times that of an ordinary person, even if Jiang Chen purposely controlled his power, it wasn’t someone who only spent a few days in the gym could compare to.
“F*ck you, you f*cking hit me?”
Blood rushed to his head, as Xu Youcheng became hot-headed. He grabbed the knife on the table and stabbed toward Jiang Chen.
“Be careful!” Xia Shiyu screamed as her face lost its color.
But Jiang Chen only laughed contemptuously, he didn’t even bother to dodge as he waited for him to dash over.
Funny, if this level of attack could hurt him, he could suicide by banging his head on the tofu. (1)
The knife reached two inches in front of Jiang Chen. However, Jiang Chen didn’t move as he easily clenched onto Xu Youcheng’s wrist.
Xu Youcheng felt as if his hand was clamped by an iron claw. His face became bloated, and the vision in front of face changed before he dropped on the ground.
The knife pierced the wooden floor two inches away from him.
Xia Shiyu’s eyes widened, mouth opened, and her cold expression was changed entirely into shock.
She never thought Jiang Chen had this type of ability.
No…
The night when she was blocked at the flower shop by the thugs.
Jiang Chen strolled in front of Xu Youcheng while seeing him whimpering on the ground, contorting his body together to hide.
The customers on the side gulped as they wanted to intervene, but Jiang Chen only glanced at them before the idea vanished in their heads.
Someone secretly called 911, but Jiang Chen didn’t mind.
While squatting on the ground, he dragged his gelled hair and smiled at him.
Then, Jiang Chen slapped him.
Slap!
“This one is for Xia Shiyu. Do you know that because you left your debt to her, she was almost forced into a private club by a bunch of thugs? She was your girlfriend, are you even human?’
Hearing Jiang Chen’s words, the crowd all looked at the sharp looking Xu Youcheng with despise. No one felt compassion for him for getting beaten up. He deserved it!
If he didn’t happen to encounter that night.
When Jiang Chen thought about it again, he felt an inexplicable rage.
Slap!
“This one is because I don’t like you, you can think of the reason yourself!”
After two slaps, blood began to drip out of Xu Youcheng’s nose and mouth. Seeing that there might be a problem if he continued, Jiang Chen took a deep breath and stopped. Jiang Chen threw Xu Youcheng’s head on the ground and stood up
It was not the apocalypse, after all, he should be careful.
In dizziness, it took him awhile to regain his clarity.
On the ground, Xu Youcheng stared at Jiang Chen maliciously.
“Just wait, I will make sure you can’t stay in Wanghai City anymore.”
“I am waiting.”
“Do you know who I am?”
“Someone selling his butt?” Jiang Chen took a napkin to wipe his hand and mocked
“I am Linhua Group’s-”
But just then, a female voice diffused from not too far away mercilessly destroying his last hope.
“You are not anymore.”
