In the end, Gu Chen gently pulled Shen Xi’s right hand, then picked up a wet tissue at the side and slowly wiped Shen Xi’s palm. He said with a helpless tone, “Next time, don’t do this kind of rough work yourself. Tell me and I’ll help you!”

Gu Lin was instantly stunned on the spot. As expected, he was thinking too much. How could he have fantasized that Gu Chen would stand up for him?

Looking at Gu Chen carefully wiping Shen Xi’s hands, Gu Lin felt that he was done for.

He didn’t dare to disturb Gu Chen loudly. He only dared to whisper, “Cousin, those who don’t know are innocent. I didn’t want to offend young Miss Shen. Besides, I didn’t do anything to her. I was even slapped by her. I was the one who was hurt.”

Gu Chen still ignored Gu Lin. He just smiled at Shen Xi, who was wiping his hands. “Go out and wait for me. I’ll be right out.”

Shen Xi didn’t ask and left after nodding.

It was not until Shen Xi’s figure disappeared at the door that Gu Chen turned his gaze coldly to Gu Lin.

When Gu Lin’s gaze met Gu Chen’s cold snake-like gaze, he immediately broke out in a cold sweat.

“Brother…” Gu Lin looked at Gu Lin pitifully.

“Hit your left cheek?” Gu Chen asked very softly.

Gu Lin did not know why Gu Chen asked this, so he could only nod obediently.

Gu Chen kicked Gu Lin to the ground. His shiny leather shoes stepped on Gu Lin’s left face in the next second and crushed him hard.

When the nanny saw this scene, she immediately hid in dejection.

Gu Lin felt that his face and dignity had been stepped on by Gu Chen, and his face was also hurting.

“Didn’t I tell you not to come to my place for no reason? You came to my place and bullied my people. It seems that your father didn’t teach you to be honest even when he was in prison.” Gu Chen’s tone was dangerous.

After Gu Chen crushed Gu Lin’s face, he had just raised his foot when he stepped on Gu Lin’s right hand fiercely in the next second.

There were too many bones in his hand. Gu Chen only used a little strength, and Gu Lin was in so much pain that he roared, “Ahhh! I was wrong. I won’t do it again!”

Even so, Gu Chen did not have the intention to let go of Gu Lin for a moment. He stepped harder until Gu Lin’s originally clean hand was covered in blood. Gu Chen then let go of his foot.

As if he was disgusted by the dirty blood stains on the soles of his feet, he raised his feet and wiped them on Gu Lin’s back. In the end, he took off his shoes impatiently.

“There won’t be a next time!” After saying this softly, Gu Chen left barefoot.

After finding a new pair of shoes to wear, Gu Chen went out with satisfaction.

Seeing Shen Xi strolling beside the car in boredom, Gu Chen immediately quickened his pace and said apologetically, “I’ve made you wait for a long time. Get in the car.”

“Did you hit him?” Shen Xi asked as soon as she got into the car.

Gu Chen was about to help Shen Xi fasten her seatbelt, but he found that Shen Xi had fastened it himself as soon as he got into the car. Gu Chen sat down in his seat a little dejectedly.

“It wasn’t a fight. I just kicked him three times.” Gu Chen said indifferently as he started the car.

“Then you must have kicked him hard. He shouted very loudly.” Shen Xi laughed.

“Next time, I will remember to cover his mouth before kicking him.” Gu Chen blurted out.

Shen Xi was amused. “No wonder your relatives are so afraid of you. They must have given you a nickname, the Living King of Hell, right? I think, in private, you must be even more vicious than now.”

Gu Chen was stunned and asked jokingly, “So this is how I am in your heart? Am I that cruel in your eyes? Then, will you be afraid of me?”

Gu Chen looked ahead with a calm expression, but his hands gripped the steering wheel tightly.

Shen Xi did not answer directly. Instead, she thought for a moment and then said, “I don’t think so. If you hadn’t gone in just now, I might have taken care of that guy. As for the others, I haven’t seen them yet. When I see how ferocious you are one day, I’ll consider whether I should be afraid of you or not.”

Gu Chen’s grip on the steering wheel gradually relaxed, and he secretly heaved a sigh of relief. He was glad that he did not let Shen Xi know many things.

The half-truths that he confessed to Shen Xi previously were nothing more than to make Shen Xi believe his words.

Now it seemed that some things did not need to be displayed in front of Shen Xi, especially those things that were a little bloody and not presentable.

Shen Xi didn’t care what Gu Chen was thinking about. She just asked curiously, “Where are we going later? It’s hot in broad daylight. It’s not fun anywhere.”
