Rong Qi tilted her head, evading the punch.
Seeing his first punch miss, the burly man clenched his fist again and swung it toward Rong Qi.
However, just as the burly man was about to swing his arm, his fist was caught by someone standing in front of Rong Qi.
Lu Chengzhouâs gaze turned cold, a kind of coldness that Rong Qi had never seen on him before. He held the manâs fist, his tone icy, âRepeat what you just said.â
The burly man gritted his teeth, trying to exert force, but he found he couldnât muster any strength no matter how hard he tried. He sneered, âFine, Iâll say it again. How can someone so ugly dare to show her face? Why not just die? Should I punch her back into her motherâs womb and let her be reborn?â
Suddenly, Lu Chengzhou swept his leg sideways.
BAM!
The burly manâs legs slammed heavily onto the ground, and he knelt in front of Rong Qi.
Lu Chengzhouâs face was icy as he punched the manâs face. Straddling him, he delivered a barrage of blows. After a moment, the manâs face was bloodied, his nose and mouth bleeding.
Lu Chengzhou said, âSheâs a person I idolize, and you dare insult her? You must really want to die!â
With that, Lu Chengzhou put more force into his punches.
On the other side, He Jinghan was still engaged in a scuffle with the other men, allowing Lu Chengzhou to focus on beating the man. But despite He Jinghanâs efforts, he was still much younger and weaker than the others.
Seeing that, Gu Ziye stepped in to help.
Rong Qi lowered her gaze, signaling to Ye Nanshen, who had followed them. However, Ye Nanshen acted as though he hadnât seen, coldly observing the scene.
It wasnât until the others were beaten to the point of being unable to get up that Gu Ziye and He Jinghan stopped. Lu Chengzhou was still on top of the man, raining blows down on him.
Gu Ziye pulled Lu Chengzhou up and kicked all of them down the stairs. After instructing the bar staff not to let those people in again, the scene finally calmed down slightly.
He Jinghan glanced at Rong Qi, then turned and left, returning to the private room. He hadnât spoken a single word throughout, leaving the impression of a heroic young man.
Lu Chengzhou stood up and nervously looked at Rong Qi. He searched everywhere on himself and found no mask with him.
Lu Chengzhou appeared somewhat clueless, like a child, and said, âIâm sorry, Little Qiqi for coming late. Youâre very beautiful, very pretty. Donât listen to what they say. Someone like me, I prefer someone like you⦠Owie, why are you hitting me, Shen?â
Lu Chengzhou furrowed his brows, casting an unhappy glance at Ye Nanshen, then continued to console Rong Qi, âActually, appearance doesnât really matter. When one door closes, another one opens. Youâre already so wonderful. If you were any more beautiful, no other woman would be able to live. Hehe, Little Qiqi, you are just too kind, so Heaven decided to collect a small interest from you. Donât worry, Iâll find a way with you to restore your appearance.â
Despite Rong Qiâs pair of beautiful and expressive eyes, wrinkles covered her face, along with various marks, forming a stark contrast between the sallow complexion below and the fair skin around her eyes.
While Rong Qiâs eyes were stunning enough to enchant anyone, just looking at the lower half of her face, no one would object if someone called her an old lady.
Rong Qi was well aware of her own appearance, and she appreciated Lu Chengzhou for saying so much to console her. She smiled, pursed her lips, and said, âItâs okay, I donât mind.â
Gu Ziye retrieved a mask from the bar and handed it to Lu Chengzhou, who quickly passed it to Rong Qi.
Rong Qi graciously put it on. Due to this unexpected incident, she followed them back to their private room.
Inside the room, Gu Yuyan explained what had happened, âJust now, Miss Shanon saved me, and Iâm really grateful. If it werenât for her, I probably would have fallen down. Miss Shanon, if you have any wishes, just tell me. As long as I can do it, I can make your wish come true..â
