nSlap!

n

nThe crisp sound of a slap sounded. It was Chen Wang who had been slapped by her father, Chen Zhong, in public.

n

nChen Wang had never experienced such humiliation in her life.

n

nShe held back her tears and looked at her father in disbelief.

n

nChen Zhong did not have the heart to hit his daughter. However, to cooperate with the Gu and Su families in business, he had no choice but to teach his daughter a lesson.

n

nHe sternly reprimanded, “Quickly apologize to Mr. Gu’s family! You don’t have the right to spout nonsense without any evidence!”

n

nChen Wang was reluctant to apologize. She felt the gazes from the people around her, stabbing at her like knives. It made her feel as if she had been stripped naked and left on the streets.

n

nShe did not want to apologize. Apologizing would prove that she was wrong. She felt she did nothing wrong. Su Luo was a sl*t!

n

nAnger shot through Chen Wang. “Why should I apologize if I didn’t say anything wrong? You are my father! Why would you rather protect a sl*t than protect me?”

n

nSlap!

n

nAnother crisp slap.

n

n“I told you to apologize to Mr. Gu’s family!”

n

nChen Zhong was furious. He had no idea why his daughter was so stupid and did not know what was more important.

n

nChen Wang could not control her tears, but she still said stubbornly, “I won’t apologize!”

n

nThe two slaps also made Gu Xi’s anger disappear. She tugged at Su Luo’s dress. “Mommy, why don’t we let this aunty go? Although she is mean, I feel sorry for her when her father slaps her in public. Anyway, Xixi has bitten her on behalf of mommy. Let’s consider this matter even, okay?”

n

nSu Luo lovingly pinched Gu Xi’s face. “Why is Mommy’s Xixi so kind? Okay, mommy will forgive her.”

n

nTo protect Gu Xi’s innocence, Su Luo agreed to Gu Xi’s request and said to Chen Zhong, “Forget it, Uncle Chen. You have already slapped her. She doesn’t have to apologize anymore.”

n

n“Su Luo! Don’t think that I will be grateful to you just because of this! I will remember today’s humiliation well. I will make you pay for it in the future!”

n

nChen Wang was ungrateful about it and even threatened Su Luo.

n

nSu Luo rolled her eyes at her. “You’re a classic example of being stupid and mean. Don’t you know that I’m giving you a chance to leave? Since that’s the case, you’d better apologize to me. Otherwise, I’ll not let you leave this place unless you apologize.”

n

nSu Luo had already given Chen Wang a way out. She was the one who didn’t want to step down.

n

nGu Zhan helped Su Luo out. “Mr. Chen, I think you should discipline your daughter. Otherwise, I don’t feel at ease leaving those projects in the hands of someone who can’t even teach his daughter manners.”

n

nWhen Chen Zhong heard this, he immediately begged Gu Zhan, “Mr. Gu, please don’t stop our cooperation just because of such a small matter! I’ll make her apologize right now!”

n

nChen Wang looked at her father in fear. Chen Zhong raised his hand and was about to slap her again. Chen Wang subconsciously closed her eyes.

n

nHowever, the pain did not come to her as expected. She opened her eyes and found that Lin Tian held Chen Zhong’s hand.

n

n“Mr. Gu, is this how you use your power to bully others?”

n

nLin Tian mocked Gu Zhan.

n

nLin Tian did not stop Chen Zhong because he wanted to help Chen Wang. He just wanted to belittle Gu Zhan in front of everyone. However, Lin Tian’s act had attracted Chen Wang’s attention. He was like a hero to her now.

n

n“Mr. Lin, what does it have to do with you that I taught the person who insulted my wife a lesson?”

n

nGu Zhan put his hands in his pockets and glared at Lin Tian.

n

n“Oh? One of the people she insulted seems to be me. Do you think it has nothing to do with me now?”

n

nLin Tian let go of Chen Zhong’s hand. He looked arrogant, and it annoyed Gu Zhan.

n

nThe others looked at the commotion with interest. It was like watching a drama.

n

n“What do you want?”

n

nGu Zhan gritted his teeth, suppressing the anger surging in him.

n

n“I am here to take away my woman. I should have taken her with me a long time ago.”

n

nThen, he walked around Gu Zhan, grabbed Su Luo’s hand, and walked towards the door.

n

nThe crowd was excited. It was a scene of two men snatching a woman.
