Chapter 209: Painful
Xiao Chen’s glare was terrifying. He would’ve retaliated if An Xue wasn’t a woman.
Ah Yu heard the commotion and hurriedly came into the teahouse from outside. She carried Fang Liu to check if she was injured. Although there weren’t many people in the teahouse, the staff and customers were still alerted by the commotion.
Xiao Chen said to An Xue, “If there’s something you want to talk to me about, we can go home and do it.”
“Why would you want to go home and talk? Are you ashamed of yourself? Hahaha! What is there to be ashamed of? You two should be scorned and ridiculed publicly. Especially that vixen over there. She’s always sticking to every man she sees. Isn’t Mo Yu enough? Now you’re trying to seduce my fiancé? Aren’t you a cheap woman?”
In an instant, obscene curses flowed out of An Xue’s mouth. The woman’s words infuriated Ah Yu.
Xiao Chen walked forward and grabbed An Xue’s arm. Without saying a word, he dragged her out of the door. An Xue struggled fiercely and hammered Xiao Chen’s chest with all her might. “What are you doing?! I’m your fiancée! You’re hurting me!”
Xiao Chen quickly threw An Xue into his car. He grabbed An Xue’s jaw and said in a deep voice, “If you dare to hurt Fang Liu, I’ll rip you to shreds.”
An Xue looked at Xiao Chen in disbelief. Her heart only belonged to Mo Yu, and she had no feelings toward Xiao Chen.
But after spending several days with Xiao Chen, An Xue gradually discovered the advantages of being engaged to him. She felt that Xiao Chen was as talented as Mo Yu and possessed excellent charisma.
An Xue slowly accepted the fact that Xiao Chen was her fiancé. She thought that Xiao Chen liked her. But An Xue’s father recently told her that Xiao Chen had begun to cut ties with An Xue and her family.
“This brat’s wings have grown too wide!” An Dong could no longer contain his anger and told his daughter to better communicate with Xiao Chen.
An Xue went to look for Xiao Chen and discuss these matters, but she caught him smiling at his phone. The woman was too stunned to speak.
It was rare for An Xue to see Xiao Chen smiling. Even if he were to smile, it would be an icy one.
......
However, Xiao Chen smiled sincerely this time. It was a gentle and loving smirk that An Xue had never seen before. Xiao Chen smiled as if he was in love with another woman.
An Xue gritted her teeth and decided to follow Xiao Chen. She wanted to see the b*tch who had seduced her fiancé. However, An Xue didn’t expect to see Fang Liu. ‘It’s that b*tch again!’
The man before An Xue grabbed her wrist without pity. After warning An Xue, the man closed the car door and instructed the driver to take An Xue away immediately.
An Xue felt a wave of pain on her jaw and wrist. The man was ruthless, almost crushing her bones.
When An Xue followed Xiao Chen, she saw that he protected Fang Liu from falling. Although the two did not touch, Xiao Chen revealed a caring and thoughtful expression, yet he was rough and ruthless toward An Xue.
An Xue lay on the back seat and wailed loudly, “Fang Liu, you b*tch! Why won’t you just die already?!”
Xiao Chen returned to the teahouse after dealing with An Xue. Then he saw Ah Yu holding and comforting Fang Liu. The man walked forward and knelt before Fang Liu. He said gently, “Were you scared? I’m sorry. It’s all my fault.”
Fang Liu sat on the char as the man knelt before her. Xiao Chen’s gaze leveled with Fang Liu’s as the woman’s reflection could be seen in his obsidian-like eyes. Xiao Chen’s gaze was full of compassion and apology.
Fang Liu dared not look directly into Xiao Chen’s eyes as Ah Yu back-paddled awkwardly. Fang Liu took a deep breath and stepped backward to put some distance between her and Xiao Chen. Then she asked, “Did you get burned just now?”
Xiao Chen felt a tingling pain on his back. He looked around and frowned, “Yes, it hurts.”
Fang Liu had seen Mo Yu act brave even though he was hurt. She felt that Xiao Chen was also behaving this way, but she couldn’t be sure.
After all, Xiao Chen had put himself in harm’s way to protect Fang Liu. The woman sighed and said, “You should go to the hospital to get that burn checked out.”
But Xiao Chen shook his head. “There’s no need. I just feel sticky and uncomfortable. I want to get a change of clothes.”
Xiao Chen always put his appearance and attitude first as an elite businessman. But he smelled like coffee and refused to go to the hospital even though he was in pain.
