Translator: 549690339

“Miss Bai is the one you injured?” Shen Chi asked with a stern face.

“Yes,” Xu Chaomu looked up with her small face, and didn’t deny it at all, “My bottle was aimed at her agent, she was just unlucky to take the hit for her agent.”

“Was it you who scalded my second sister?”

“Yes, yes, yes, all of it!” Xu Chaomu became impatient.

“Xu Chaomu, you really have some nerve.”

Xu Chaomu could clearly hear his scornful mockery, so she snapped, “Kill or flay me as you wish, just one word from you and I’ll roll out of the Shen Family immediately!”

He absolutely wouldn’t listen to her explanations, which was just as well since she was too lazy to explain anymore.

Shen Chi stopped talking and just stared at her. His gaze was icy, chilling to the bone.

“If you won’t speak, then fine, I’ll leave on my own, since none of you hold me in any regard anyway.”

Xu Chaomu crouched down to pick up her diary and leave, but before she could crouch, Shen Chi yanked her wrist forcefully, pulling her to his side.

He was very close to her, so close that she could smell the pleasant scent that always clung to him.

It was like clear tea, yet it carried a mature masculine essence.

He slowly leaned in toward her, and Xu Chaomu got so frightened that she quickly closed her eyes, “You, you, let go… it hurts…”

A strong force came from the wrist, and Xu Chaomu gasped in pain.

Just when she thought Shen Chi was about to do something to her, his other hand touched her neck instead.

There, there were three vivid scratches!

Each one was bright red, as if even a gentle touch might make them bleed! free(w)ebnovel(.)com

“It hurts, it hurts, don’t touch… ah, it’s killing me…” Xu Chaomu cried out without regard for her image.

Jerk!

It really hurts!

Shen Chi’s brow furrowed, deepening with concern. When he had left, there had been no nail marks on her neck!

His hand gently brushed over her wound, and wherever his fingers went, they brought the warmth of his slightly hot hands.

“It’s killing me, let go, let go!” Xu Chaomu was frantic, bawling out loud.

What was this man trying to do, tormenting her like this!

“Who did this?”

Shen Chi leaned close to her ear and asked softly. His breath, heavy with masculine scent, brushed her earlobe, sending tingles throughout her body. “I scratched myself!” Xu Chaomu tried to break free from his strong hand. “You scratched yourself? Then scratch again, let me see!”

Anger was evident on Shen Chi’s face as he flung Xu Chaomu’s hand away, his gaze pinning her down.

Cruel! This man was truly ruthless!

Asking her to scratch herself…

Xu Chaomu sulked, she just couldn’t do it…

The main thing was, she didn’t even have long nails!

How could she scratch, scratch his second uncle…

Xu Chaomu glared back at Shen Chi with wide eyes, unable to proceed.

“Not telling the truth?” Shen Chi gave her another cold look.

“It was Miss Liu who scratched me, she called me names,” Xu Chaomu finally admitted.

He refused to listen to her explanation, so why was he asking her now? Would he believe her if she spoke?

Upon hearing Xu Chaomu’s confession, Liu Rumei quickly came over, saying, “Xu Chaomu, I accidentally scratched you, but just look at what you’ve done!

Splashing boiling water on your second sister, do you have any humanity left?”

“It was my second sister who cursed at me first! She told me to roll out of the Shen Family!” Xu Chaomu retorted defiantly.

“Oh?” Shen Chi’s gaze grew colder, sweeping over the people meaningfully.

“Achi, don’t believe Chaomu’s nonsense. Shen Yanrou just scolded her a bit, everyone can testify. It was she who wouldn’t admit stealing the necklace and took her anger out on Yanrou!” Liu Rumei said.

“It was Second Sister who cursed at me first!” Xu Chaomu blurted out in desperation.

What kind of attitude was this from Shen Chi? He simply didn’t believe her!

However, just then, Shen Chi spoke up, “Miss Liu, what do you think I should do with you?”

“I am your aunt!” Liu Rumei exclaimed loudly, “Look carefully, it is Xu Chaomu who splashed Yanrou with boiling water, smashed the vase, and even injured Miss Bai!”

“Mumu,” Shen Chi lowered his head, his voice deep yet tinged with a playfulness that was starkly different from before, “what do you think should be done?”

His gentle voice floated down from above her, leaving Xu Chaomu stunned.

Was this Shen Chi?

Hadn’t he just been yelling at her?

She had already braced herself for a noble sacrifice, so why had his attitude suddenly changed?

Testing the waters, Xu Chaomu ventured, “Let her slap herself twice.”

“Xu Chaomu, don’t be disrespectful!” Liu Rumei scolded.

Everyone around them wore an expression as if they had seen a ghost, exchanging glances of disbelief.

“That’s a good suggestion,” Shen Chi said, his lips curling into a smile.

Xu Chaomu had the same ghost-like expression. What did his words mean?

Suddenly, Shen Chi’s expression turned cold and stern, facing Liu Rumei,

“Didn’t you hear? Chaomu told you to do it yourself!”

The crowd wore an expression as if they had gone to the dogs, their eyes wide with shock!

“Shen Chi, be reasonable!” Liu Rumei shouted angrily, “It’s this girl who is being unruly and barbaric, everyone has seen it, and yet, you turn around and blame me?”

“If she’s unruly and barbaric, it’s because I’ve indulged her. What’s the matter, not satisfied? Want to punish me as well?” Shen Chi’s voice was fierce and cold.

His voice was low and indifferent, enough to freeze the surroundings!

However, for Xu Chaomu, it sounded sweet as honey. Wait a minute, why did his words sound so pleasant?

Was he protecting her?

Xu Chaomu felt happiness come too suddenly, her heart bursting like fireworks with a ‘pop, pop, pop’!

If he had intended to protect her, he should have said so earlier, she thought, having worried for nothing.

Liu Rumei was momentarily stunned, then mocked, “Who dares to punish you, Young Master Shen? But, I advise you to discipline this girl properly. You’re spoiling her!”

“Are you going to slap yourself or not?” Shen Chi asked, his patience running thin, his gaze piercing.

“You, you, you… Shen Chi, take that back, I’ll pretend I didn’t hear it!” “Someone come!” Shen Chi called out sternly.

“What are you trying to do?” Liu Rumei stepped back two paces.

“If you are reluctant to do it yourself, I can only ask someone else to do it,” Shen Chi scoffed coldly.

Bai Man ran over to grab Shen Chi’s arm, “Please, don’t be hard on Aunt Liu, she really didn’t do anything…”

It was then that Xu Chaomu mustered her courage and burst out indignantly, “Where did she not do anything? Isn’t this cut on my neck made by her?” “But you also splashed Yanrou with boiling water!” Bai Man frowned.

This Xu Chaomu was so unreasonable.

Shen Chi pushed Bai Man’s hand away and bent down to pat Xu Chaomu’s cheek, “You’re right.”

His lips curved into a shallow smile, although his eyes still reflected pain when they landed on the injury on her neck.

Seeing that the servants were not coming, Shen Chi grew annoyed, “Isn’t anybody coming?”

“Shen Chi… you wouldn’t dare!” Shen Yanrou also ran over, protecting her mother.

“Is there anything I, Shen Chi, would not dare to do?”

“You, you… don’t mess around…” Liu Rumei was beside herself with anger. “Come here and do it!” Shen Chi was tired of the talking and gestured towards a male servant in the crowd!

The male servant’s legs turned to jelly; to hit the lady of the house? Trembling, he couldn’t step forward..
