"I want to see how long you can keep that mouth of yours tough. You guys, drag her out for me, and do what you need to do!"
With He Rui's command, several tall bodyguards rushed forward and restrained Shen Cheng's hands.
Damn!
So when you can't win an argument, you resort to violence?
Shen Cheng lifted her leg and viciously kicked, striking at the bodyguard's vital spot in front of her.
The bodyguard's face twisted in pain, sweat pouring like rain, as he clutched his groin and howled.
A clicking sound————
Sounded like a gun being cocked.
He Rui felt a sudden chill on his temple and, having seen much of the world, recognized the danger, not daring to move an inch.
For a moment, even the air was filled with a nerve-wracking aura.
Noble ladies and socialites who were there to watch were greatly frightened and screamed out loud.
The onlookers gradually scattered, fearing an accidental gunfire might harm them.
The bodyguards, who had been fierce just moments ago, dared not act recklessly again and quickly released Shen Cheng, stepping back one step at a time...
"Stop."
Only when the man, like an emperor, spoke did they buckle at the knees and fall to the ground.
Shi Yu's lips curled slightly, and his dark eyes, like a cold pool, shimmered with a mesmerizing glow, exuding his nobility and elegance.
Xia An'an was so scared she collapsed to the ground, "No... don't kill him..."
Such a plea made Shi Yu extremely displeased. He squinted his cold eyes and fixed his gaze on Xia An'an, "Don't want him dead? You should know what to do."
"I know..." Xia An'an, terrified and panicking, raised her hand and slapped herself hard on the face, one slap after another.
Pan Yang, caught among them, also realized the gravity of the situation. With a solemn expression, he retreated to about three or four meters away to call the police.
"Anan, go, don't worry about me..." As a man, He Rui still had a basic sense of dignity and clearly couldn't bear to watch Xia An'an slap herself.
Leave? Xia An'an knew too well that if she left now, the consequences could be even worse.
She could only silently lower her head and continue to slap herself until her cheeks were swollen, not daring to stop.
The temperature in the air seemed to drop several degrees suddenly. Even in the height of summer, it made people feel eerily cold inside.
Arrogant as Shi Yu, his cold eyes fell on the bodyguards.
"My woman, you beasts dare to touch. Whichever hand touched her, cripple that hand."
His voice, rich with magnetism, carried an irresistible aura of intimidation.
The surrounding crowd held their breath and continued to retreat, feeling a vague sense of fear and unease in their hearts.
Shi Yu coldly surveyed the bodyguards, his deep eyes devoid of warmth, "Do I need to do it myself?"
The bodyguards, terrified, hurriedly pleaded for mercy: "Mr. Shi, please spare us. It was our fault for not recognizing your greatness, we deserve to die..."
"Sorry, we were wrong... We'll never dare again..." While pleading, they hurriedly slapped their own faces, one slap harder than the last.
A group of people knelt on the ground slapping themselves, and the scene was somehow comical.
Those watching the spectacle knew very well the stakes involved. They knew very well who Shi Yu was, so no one dared to intervene.
It was unclear when a large group of reporters swarmed in————
Snap, snap.
Flashlights and shutter sounds alternated repeatedly.
"Make sure to capture my woman beautifully."
Shi Yu's voice was neither warm nor cold, making it impossible to discern whether his mood was good or bad at that moment.
