Shen Xian tilted her head up to look at the man who was holding onto her, struggling fiercely.
"Let go of me."
"Shen Xian, you cannot go."
Gu Chen had no intention of letting her go at all, staring into her eyes with a commanding order, his hands gripping her even tighter.
"Gu Chen, let go of me, I must go! I can't just watch her being bullied."
At that moment, Shen Xian's mind was entirely focused on Qin Shi, completely ignoring Gu Chen's words.
Seeing Gu Chen had no intention of releasing her, her eyes flashed with determination, and she suddenly reversed her grip on Gu Chen's wrist, with a right foot pivot, she attacked him.
Gu Chen sensed something was off the moment her expression changed and agilely retreated, avoiding her first attack. That also resulted in his grip on her hand loosening.
Shen Xian managed to free herself and without looking for a fight, she turned and dashed towards the elevator.
Gu Chen stepped forward, pressing down on her shoulder with one hand.
