Gu Chen's sudden action shocked everyone around him.
"Let me go!"
Zhou Xue'er's scalp tingled as Gu Chen grabbed her long hair, and she cried out in a disheveled state.
But Gu Chen completely ignored her shouts. In his mind, Zhou Xue'er was no longer a woman, but a despicable villain.
Zhou Xue'er's struggles were completely futile against Gu Chen. Gu Chen grabbed her, then walked up to Su Qingqing and said calmly, "Hit her!"
Su Qingqing was stunned when she uttered the word "hit".
Gu Chen frowned and continued, "She slapped you just now, now it's your turn to return the favor."
"I... I..."
Although Gu Chen's actions had already shocked her enough, Su Qingqing Gu Chen still frightened by his words.
He actually made me hit Zhou Xue'er?!
Although Su Qingqing was also angry and aggrieved, she hesitated to slap Zhou Xue'er.
"Gu Chen, you bastard! You lowly commoner!"
Zhou Xue'er, her hair being grabbed, continued to curse angrily, saying, "You try letting her touch me, do you think she dares? I'm the eldest daughter of the Zhou Family, who dares to touch me! This woman can't even protect herself, she's about to marry Li Junxuan of the Li Family!"
"Li Junxuan from the Li Family?"
Su Qingqing seemed to have just heard the news; her delicate body trembled violently as she asked, "What did you say?"
"You still don't know?" Zhou Xue'er sneered, "Your brother has already gone to the Li Family to propose marriage. You should also know that the Li Family is dependent on our Zhou Family. Because of you, the Su Family and our Zhou Family are now at odds. Isn't all this because you, this slut, seduced Gu Chen? Marrying you off is your Su Family's decision!"
"No, impossible!" Su Qingqing took a step back, her face full of disbelief, and said, "Li Junxuan, he's a good-for-nothing! How could my dad and brother possibly marry me off to him!"
"So what if you're a jerk?" Zhou Xue'er scoffed. "We're all family members; interests come first. Your Su Family has offended our Zhou Family because of you. Do you think you can stay out of it? Tsk tsk, looks like you're still unaware. But that makes sense; we're about to graduate. I guess your brother didn't tell you so you could focus on your exams. Too bad, though. After the exams, your fate won't be in your own hands anymore!"
"You, you!"
Su Qingqing's face turned pale instantly, her mind in turmoil, and she pointed at Zhou Xue'er, unsure of what to say.
The people around her also cast sympathetic glances at Su Qingqing.
As he said, Li Junxuan of the Li Family is already over thirty years old.
Although she didn't want to believe Zhou Xue'er's words, Su Qingqing knew that Zhou Xue'er wouldn't lie to her at this time!
"Bitch!"
Suddenly, a muffled shout rang out.
Gu Chen, his eyes blazing with fury, could no longer contain himself and grabbed Zhou Xue'er!
Zhou Xue'er felt as if her hair was about to detach from her scalp, and tears streamed down her face from the pain.
Gu Chen said coldly, "You must have instigated all of this, right? Even if the Su Family is in dire straits, they wouldn't send their daughter away for such a baseless conflict between the younger generation. Your interference must be a threat to the Su Family!"
"Good!"
Zhou Xue'er felt incredibly humiliated, but she gritted her teeth and spoke, her eyes bloodshot with anger as she stared at Gu Chen, saying, "So, I instigated it? What about it?"
"Smack!"
Just then, a crisp slap rang out.
Zhou Xue'er received a solid blow to the face!
Everyone was stunned, including Gu Chen. Because the one who delivered the slap wasn't him, but Su Qingqing eyes were blazing with fury!
"You're disgusting, Zhou Xue'er!" Su Qingqing said, tears welling in her beautiful eyes, "I never thought you were this kind of person!"
You dare hit me?
Zhou Xue'er struggled incessantly. It was one thing for Gu Chen to hit her, but how dare someone like Su Qingqing hit her!
Absolutely not qualified!
"So what if I hit you?" Gu Chen looked coldly at Zhou Xue'er and said, "If the circumstances allowed, I would kill you right now!"
Gu Chen's words sent a chill down Zhou Xue'er's spine, leaving her feeling as if she had fallen into an ice cellar!
Her gaze towards Gu Chen was sharp and menacing, like a venomous snake. For a moment, she dared not doubt the truth of Gu Chen's words!
If Gu Chen really had designs on her, he might actually kill her!
"Roll!"
After all, this was a public place. After Su Qingqing slapped Zhou Xue'er, Gu Chen threw her to the ground as well!
Then, Gu Chen looked at Su Qingqing and asked, "Are you alright?"
"I'm fine."
Upon hearing the news, Su Qingqing's mind was in turmoil. She bit her lower lip tightly, tears welling in her eyes, trying hard to control her emotions and not cry.
Gu Chen sighed inwardly. In his previous life, after Zhou Xue'er's wedding banquet, his father went to the Shangjing for help not long after, and he himself suffered the humiliation of having his leg broken. He stayed at home all day and had no idea that Zhou Xue'er was so vicious!
After her expression changed several times, Su Qingqing finally turned and ran out of the hotel. She quickly hailed a taxi, got in, and left without saying goodbye to anyone.
Gu Chen had considered stopping him, but after thinking about it, he decided against it.
She knew that Su Qingqing was in a state of confusion and probably wanted to go home and question her father and brother. After all, this was a family matter, and Gu Chen shouldn't interfere.
Thinking of this, Gu Chen's eyes grew even colder as he stared at the culprit on the ground.
If looks could kill, Zhou Xue'er would be riddled with wounds by now.
"You two will die a horrible death!"
Under Gu Chen's fierce gaze, Zhou Xue'er dared not meet his eyes and could only curse angrily.
A fire of anger is burning fiercely in her chest right now!
Gu Chen not only hit her, but also had Su Qingqing hit her, making her lose face in front of so many people!
This social gathering was attended by classmates from school. How could she, the dignified eldest daughter of the Zhou Family, have ever suffered such humiliation?
Gu Chen, that bastard! He's done this twice at school, once on my birthday, and now he's doing it again here! She's never hated anyone like this before. She'll never be able to quell her hatred unless she tears Gu Chen to pieces!
"Teacher Chen, is there anything else?"
At this moment, Gu Chen looked at Chen Jiaheng and asked coldly.
Chen Jiaheng, who had been standing there dumbfounded, finally snapped out of it when Gu Chen asked him the question. He forced a smile and said, "Um, Student Gu, I'll go in first. Once you've finished what you were doing here, come in as soon as possible!"
After saying that, he didn't wait for Gu Chen to speak, and took two steps at a time, getting faster and faster, and ran away!
His vest was now soaked with sweat. From the moment Jiang Yu inexplicably turned against him, he knew that things were no longer something a nobody like him could get involved in.
