Gu Liyan helped An Qianbai up and checked her condition. Seeing that she was unharmed, he breathed a sigh of relief.

brake--

The speeding red BMW drove a few meters before stopping by the roadside. A woman in glamorous clothes and sunglasses stepped out. She removed her sunglasses, and her heavily made-up, alluring face swept over Gu Liyan and his companion. Seeing their cheap clothing, she coldly snorted:

"They were originally from the countryside. Nowadays, as soon as they have a little money and enough for the travel expenses, they think they can come to the city to make a living. They really think they have so much ability. They are just uncivilized and uncultured. They don't even know how to read traffic lights and just run red lights."

An Qianbai lowered her head, pursed her lips, and remained silent, not wanting to cause Gu Liyan any unnecessary trouble.

Gu Liyan, upon hearing Wang Shiyu's words, felt indignant on behalf of An Qianbai:

"Even if we're wrong, you can't resort to personal attacks, can you? So what if we're from the countryside? Did we eat your food or steal your WiFi? We're not some city swindlers, why are you targeting country folk like this!"

When An Qianbai heard Gu Liyan use these new terms, she looked at him with surprise: What's WiFi? What's staged an accident? What does this mean?

Gu Liyan is not the kind of traditional, stubborn old-fashioned person; he is a fox demon who keeps up with the times, loves freedom, and likes trends!

Since Mo Chen mentioned some new-era vocabulary a few times last time, he also took the time to brush up on it. He thought he wouldn't have a chance to use it after coming to this world, but now he's finally got his chance!

Sure enough, Wang Shiyu's expression changed at this point, and she immediately turned red with anger, pointing at Gu Liyan and cursing:

"Do you even have the right to speak to this masked, shameless slut?! Oh! I know! You're this little bitch's kept man, aren't you? No wonder you're always protecting her!"

When Gu Liyan heard Wang Shiyu call An Qianbai a slut, he thought that a gentleman uses words instead of fists, and that he could just endure it and let things be. But who knew that this woman would go even further and call him a gigolo. What he found even more unacceptable was that she actually said that he was a gigolo kept by Mo Wang!

Putting aside the difference in their social status, Gu Liyan's obsession with Hua Baixian is something that even if others can't understand, it's not up to Wang Shiyu to tarnish his love!

Gu Liyan could no longer hold back, and in a flash, he appeared in front of Wang Shiyu...

Snap—

A crisp sound echoed in her ears, and Wang Shiyu was stunned on the spot. Half of the color on her face, which was covered with layers of ivory white paint, was instantly wiped off, leaving only a clear red handprint on her face.

After finishing his attack, Gu Liyan swiftly retreated to An Qianbai's side. The entire process was so fast and precise that no one could see it clearly, not even An Qianbai herself. She only felt two gusts of wind blowing past her.

Standing there, Wang Shiyu felt the burning pain on her face, instantly snapping her out of her daze and causing her to scream like a madwoman:

"Aaaaaah—there's a ghost!"

How could Wang Shiyu possibly see Gu Liyan's speed with the naked eye? Yet, she was slapped for no reason, which was simply unscientific!

Gu Liyan coldly looked at the crazed Wang Shiyu and immediately snorted, "Hmph, heaven is watching. It seems that even the heavens think you've done wrong and are teaching you a lesson on our behalf. Although I don't know what other wrongdoings you've committed, I think—heaven has eyes and is prepared to make you pay for it slowly."

Hearing Gu Liyan's words, Wang Shiyu's face turned even paler with fright. Without saying a word, she turned around, got into her car, and slipped away from the two of them.

The crowd that was originally going to gather around to watch the excitement dispersed after Wang Shiyu left. Only Gu Liyan noticed that they seemed to be lingering in the crowd they had seen earlier, as if the "excitement" there was more interesting.

Knowing that An Qianbai had just been frightened, Gu Liyan didn't go over to check on her. Instead, he lowered his head, patted the slightly trembling An Qianbai in his arms, and asked gently, "Xiaoxiao, are you alright?"

An Qianbai snapped out of her daze and looked up at Gu Liyan, her big, watery eyes gazing at him as she clung tightly to his clothes, refusing to let go.

Gu Liyan did not reject her dependence, but instead turned his gaze elsewhere, looked at the small supermarket next to him, patted An Qianbai on the shoulder and said, "Come on, I'll go buy you a bottle of water."

An Qianbai nodded obediently and followed Gu Liyan into the supermarket.

If they walked over, they would see two familiar figures in the crowd across the street...

"You damaged my car and then you're trying to make us apologize! Are you even being reasonable?!" Lin Qianmo was furious. She had worked herself to the bone for years to finally buy a house, and today, as she picked up her car and put on the license plate, she never expected to run into this crazy woman.

Cang Yue pointed to the "No Parking" sign in the distance and said, "Didn't you see the 'No Parking' sign? You parked your car in front of my house. It's a miracle you didn't get the traffic police to tow it away!"

Lin Qianmo pointed to the footprints on the car and said, "So you kicked my car? You've scratched the paint off my brand new car!"

Cang Yue's expression immediately changed, and she said awkwardly, "I'll pay you for the paint damage, but an apology is absolutely out of the question!"

"You, you woman, are simply being unreasonable!" Lin Qianmo pointed at Cang Yue and scolded angrily.

"Stop pointing your filthy finger at me!" Cang Yue shoved Lin Qianmo.

Lin Qianmo was taken aback and did not retaliate, even feeling as if such a scene had happened before.

Seeing that Lin Qianmo did not respond, Cang Yue became even more smug. "As long as you apologize to me, I will generously forgive you! Otherwise—this is not over!"
