While Shen Xian and Gu Chen were fighting on the thirty-third floor, the situation on the eighteenth floor had already done a complete turnaround.
After Zhou Yue slapped Qin Shi twice, her pent-up hatred had nearly dissipated and began to curse at her pointedly.
The language was so unpleasant that those around her could hardly bear to listen any longer.
Qin Shi was, after all, their immediate superior; being held down, hit, and cursed like this, and with everyone just standing by and watching, it didn't sit right with anyone.
But the key point was that the person hitting her was Mrs. Gu, the second lady. If it had been someone else, maybe they could have stepped forward to intervene, but Mrs. Gu was not someone they could afford to offend.
They wanted to leave but were frightened back by the fierce-looking bodyguards at the door.
