Huo Xunzhou sat in a wheelchair with an icy-cold expression on his face.
He was sizing her up with his charming eyes, as if he was confirming that she was fine.
Lin Shanchu looked at him for two seconds. She then snorted and turned away, ignoring him.
“Who the f*ck kicked me just now?”
The drunkard on the ground stumbled to his feet and cursed as he looked around. Then, his gaze fell on Huo Xunzhou.
The drunkard pointed at Huo Xunzhou and asked, “Did you kick me just now?”
Lin Shanchu took two steps forward and stood in front of Huo Xunzhou like a protector. “How could he kick you when he’s like this?”
The drunkard narrowed his eyes and saw Huo Xunzhou sitting in a wheelchair. “So you’re a cripple.”
Lin Shanchu glared at the drunkard coldly. “Watch your mouth.”
“He’s a cripple to begin with, so why can’t others criticize him?” The drunkard sneered and tilted his head to look at the man behind Lin Shanchu. “You’re hiding behind a woman. Are you still a man?”
The drunkard sized Huo Xunzhou up and said with a strange smile. “You’re probably impotent when you’re crippled like this, right?”
“Have you become dumb from drinking alcohol?” Lin Shanchu understood the implicit meaning behind the drunkard’s words and unconsciously rolled up her sleeves with a cold expression.
She usually felt that she offended Huo Xunzhou when she spoke to him in a harsh tone.
This idiot who came out of nowhere dared to badmouth Huo Xunzhou.
When Huo Xunzhou saw Lin Shanchu was about to start a fight, he relaxed his frown and curled his lip.
He reached out and grabbed Lin Shanchu’s wrist, pulling her behind him.
“It’s better for a brother to deal with a matter like this.”
There was a hint of tease and a natural intimacy in his tone, sounding different from his previous deliberate tone.
This was the Huo Xunzhou whom she was familiar with.
The moment Lin Shanchu was absentminded, Huo Xunzhou pulled her behind him.
Lin Shanchu was a little annoyed. “Why all of you surnamed Huo always like to be someone’s brother?” Besides, am I that close to you?”
He pretended to be polite to her earlier, but now he started teasing her again.
Men were always troublesome.
The smile on Huo Xunzhou’s face instantly subsided.
The drunkard walked towards Lin Shanchu, “Whom the f*ck are you calling dumb?”
“I’m talking about you!” Lin Shanchu was furious, so she turned around to scold the drunkard.
‘You b*tch!” The drunkard stumbled towards Lin Shanchu and reached out to grab her.
However, Huo Xunzhou stopped his hand as soon as it reached midair.
Huo Xunzhou pulled his arm and secured it on the armrest of the wheelchair.
He then pressed his other hand down heavily in a hurry.
A clear “crack” sound was heard.
“You cripple…” Before the drunkard could finish his words, he fell to his knees and qrrpnmpd
Lin Shanchu still had not come to her senses.
She looked down at the drunkard lying on the ground.
The drunkard writhed in pain on the ground. His other arm froze and he dared not move it.
Huo Xunzhou bent down and reached out to grab him by the neck before turning his face in Lin Shanchu’s direction. “Take a detour whenever you see her in the future.”
Huo Xunzhou turned the drunkard’s face in his direction and asked seriously,
“Can you do it?”
Even though Huo Xunzhou was grabbing someone by the neck, his posture remained elegant and decent and his tone was calm and dignified. “Yes…” The drunkard hurriedly said in a hoarse voice, “I can, I really can…” “If you’re not convinced, feel free to find me. My name is Huo Xunzhou.” After Huo Xunzhou calmly introduced himself, he shook him off.
Lin Shanchu noticed that he was frowning as he looked at his hand, as if he was somewhat disgusted.
On the surface, some people were retired film stars with infinite glory, but behind the scenes, they were petty, vengeful, and had little mysophobia.
“Big brother.”
Li MO hurried over.
Just as he was about to ask what had happened, he heard Huo Xunzhou say, “Take him to the hospital.”
“Oh.” Li MO looked dumbfounded as he dragged the drunkard away.
Just as Huo Xunzhou was about to turn to look at Lin Shanchu, he realized that someone was pushing the wheelchair behind him.
They were heading towards the men’s restroom.
“Lin Shanchu, what are you doing?” Huo Xunzhou’s voice was a little tense.
Lin Shanchu said seriously, “You did me a great favor just now, so I’ll take you to the restroom.”
“I can go to there by myself.”
“No! I’m not an ungrateful person. You helped me, so I have to help you, right?”
Sensing Huo Xunzhou’s stiffened expression, Lin Shanchu added fuel to the fire by leaning over and whispering in his ear, “Brother Xunzhou.”
Huo Xunzhou tightened his grip on the armrest.
Two seconds later, Huo Xunzhou said in a low voice, “Stop fooling around.” It seemed that he was admitting defeat.
Only then did Lin Shanchu release her hand in satisfaction. “Alright, I’ll find a chance to repay you in the future.”
There was no more movement behind him.
Huo Xunzhou thought that Lin Shanchu had left.
He turned his head to look back, and it just happened that Lin Shanchu, who was behind him, was poking her head and looking at him. The two of them almost collided with each other.
Their eyes met as they were caught off guard.
Lin Shanchu blinked repeatedly.
“Is your hand okay?”
Huo Xunzhou had just broken someone’s arm barehandedly. He had done it ruthlessly and neatly.
He looked dashing.
However, his hands were not made of iron, so it was impossible for him to be unscathed.
Huo Xunzhou moved his arm under her gaze and said eloquently, “I’m fine now. ”
“Sister Lin!”
He Xiang’s voice came from behind.
The expression on Huo Xunzhou’s face disappeared instantly. He turned around and went into the men’s restroom.
He Xiang trotted over and blocked Lin Shanchu’s face before pulling her away.
“Sister Lin, what are you doing here?”
Lin Shanchu brushed away He Xiang’s hand that was blocking her. “What are you trying to block?”
He Xiang coughed lightly and said euphemistically, “There will be repercussions if someone recognizes you.” Lin Shanchu narrowed her eyes as she asked, “Do you think I’m a pervert?”
“But that’s what your gaze is trying to express.”
When He Xiang came out earlier, she saw Lin Shanchu standing straight in front of men’s restroom. She even tried to looking inside, which seemed a little perverted.
He Xiang could not refute Lin Shanchu and lowered her head silently.
Lin Shanchu hastened her pace angrily. “Why did you take so long to come out? Did you fall into a pit?”
“I’ll definitely be faster next time.” He Xiang was way shorter than Lin Shanchu, so she hastened her pace to catch up to Lin Shanchu. “I think you should find some time to consult a doctor.”
‘…Alright.”
There was a hospital ten minutes away from Yong Shui Pavilion.
After Li MO took the drunkard to the hospital, he quickly returned to Yong Shui Pavilion.
Huo Xunzhou was waiting for him in the lounge.
When he got closer, he saw that Huo Chaosheng was also there.
He was puzzled but did not ask further. He stepped forward and tried to push Huo Xunzhou.
However, Huo Chaosheng took the lead. “I’ll do it.” Li MO looked at Huo Xunzhou as he bit his tongue.
Huo Xunzhou said calmly, “Let’s go.”
After getting into the car, Li MO asked Huo Chaosheng, “May I ask where Mr. Huo is going?”
Huo Chaosheng said with a smile, “He’s going to Third Brother’s house..”
