The man's words sent shivers down the spine, and Boss Li quickly signaled the other three bodyguards to step forward.
Within moments, all six of them lay subdued on the ground by Wei Feng.
Then a crack, the sound of breaking bones, and a slaughterhouse-like scream erupted from Boss Li's mouth.
Both his hands were broken just like that.
Afterwards, Wei Feng nodded respectfully to Han Luoli and silently retreated to the side.
The Boss skipped tonight's welcoming banquet just for this girl. I couldn't help but feel a lump in my throat and tears well up; so many women have thrown themselves at him, but the Boss was like a blind man, not seeing any of them. This time, he's taken the initiative to chase a young lady as soon as he arrived in Mofeng City; such a mysterious man...
Following the bloody scene, an eerie silence settled over the area. Those who had bullied Gu Xiaoer earlier didn't dare to even breathe, fearing they might end up like Boss Li at the hands of Han Luoli.
That man's gaze was terrifying...
In the midst of the dead silence, Gu Xiaoer's dazed little form remained unchanged.
This man, like a deity, had brought a sense of safety to her side.
Only when she realized that everything that had just happened was real did she start trembling and tug at him, wanting to leave.
"You want to leave?" Just like that? Wouldn't that be letting some people off too easily?
Gu Xiaoer nodded emphatically; if they didn't hurry away, what would they do if someone reported them for fighting and brawling?
The man's cold gaze swept the surroundings, then he extended his arm, securely protecting the girl in his embrace. His commanding presence, his movements, that back view of possessive affection, aroused envy in all who beheld it.
Yet no one dared to speak up, and none tried to stop them.
Even Lin Kexin and Lu Tianze, hosts of the banquet, let Gu Xiaoer leave amidst their shock.
"Xiao Er..." Lu Tianze called out to the retreating figures, his voice as low as a mosquito.
Perhaps sensing something, Gu Xiaoer turned her head back, looking through the crowd for one last glimpse in Lu Tianze's direction, her heart filled with mixed emotions, ultimately sighing.
Not until the two figures had disappeared did everyone start to realize, and wonder what kind of identity that man held?
At the entrance of Yanhuang, a car was already waiting.
Taking a breath of fresh air, Gu Xiaoer gave a bitter smile. Lu Tianze, once revered by her as a deity, had turned out to be a heartless executioner. Was it too late for her to see the truth now?
"Regretting it now?" The fleeting expression of reluctance she had just shown had caused small bubbles to emerge in Han Luoli's usually calm heart, unfamiliar and sour.
"How could I!" scoffed Gu Xiaoer lightly.
Han Luoli gave a reserved laugh, pointed at the car parked at the entrance, and with a hooked lip, said, "Get in."
Seeing the luxury car, Gu Xiaoer was dumbfounded. Unfamiliar with the brand, but still impressed by the vehicle's sleek lines and luxurious texture, her tone was uncertain, "This car, did you rent it?"
Han Luoli's face grew cold. What was this girl thinking, with straw for brains?
"What do you think?"
Gu Xiaoer circled the brand new Lamborghini, and couldn't help but exclaim, "Wow, this is a luxury car! I guess it's provided by the company, right?"
Hmm, Han Luoli stroked his chin. Provided by the company, that was one way to put it, considering the whole company belonged to him.
"This car looks like it's worth millions at least! Wow, Han Luoli, you're really doing well in this line of work for the company to give you such high-end equipment. Not just luxury cars but bodyguards too. Your top talent treatment is really something!"
Top talent? His temples twitched; he understood now, this girl truly hadn't caught on.
"Han Luoli, rest assured, I will definitely give you a five-star rating! Your work capability is just too good! If... if my friends need this sort of service in the future, I will surely recommend you to them!"
