Chapter 121 Does it hurt when you hit someone?
Miss Feng Wu didn't expect to hit someone else.
"Who told you to rush out and meddle in other people's business? You deserve it!"
Her words shut up several people around who had wanted to come forward to persuade her. They looked at each other and no one dared to speak again.
Cold sweat broke out on Xiao Li's forehead. He walked forward quickly, wanting to check the girl's injuries first. However, he did not dare to turn his back to Miss Feng Wu, and he did not dare to ignore Gu Manman who had been silent beside him.
If this lady gets angry, the consequences will be disastrous.
As for the head of the family... he simply didn't dare to think about it.
The few people brought by Xiao Li have surrounded Gu Manman.
Gu Manman's gaze moved away from the shocking wound on the back of the girl's neck and fell on Miss Feng Wu.
Miss Feng Wu felt inexplicably frightened by her gaze, but she still refused to admit defeat and said with her neck stiff, "She bumped into me! What does it have to do with me? But you, an outsider, dared to do that on Feng family's territory..."
Gu Manman reached out and snatched the whip from the staff member's hand, then raised her hand and whipped it.
“Bang!”
A crisp and loud sound exploded!
Before anyone could react, the horsewhip hit Miss Feng Wu's face. From the corner of her mouth to the corner of her eye, a bright red whip mark quickly appeared and swelled up.
Miss Feng Wu covered her face, not yet recovering from the severe pain and shock.
Gu Manman raised her hand and swung the whip towards Miss Feng Wu again!
"careful!"
A young man nearby suddenly rushed forward and protected Miss Feng Wu with his back.
“Bang!”
The second whip landed on the man's back. The man groaned, obviously in great pain.
Xiao Li's heart almost jumped out of his throat and cold sweat was pouring down his forehead like rain.
It’s over, now things have gotten really bad!
It would be good if Miss Gu could vent her anger by whipping him twice, but now it is estimated that there will be even bigger troubles to come.
He saw that the master of the family loved this young lady very much, but he would not give her the moon or the stars if she wanted them.
Now, the Feng family in Tianjin might have to be reshuffled.
Xiao Li fumbled for the cell phone in his pocket.
"No need to call Feng Mingzhou." Gu Manman stopped him.
Gu Manman's gaze fell on the girl who took the whip for her.
"Who is she?" Gu Manman asked Xiao Li.
Xiao Li: "She is the daughter of the third branch of the Feng family. Her name is Feng Xuexiang. She is usually close to the fifth daughter."
Gu Manman nodded and gestured to the man next to Xiao Li: "Take her to treat her wound and find the best doctor."
"Yes." The man immediately stepped forward and helped Feng Xuexiang up.
Feng Xuexiang looked at Gu Manman with gratitude, moved her lips, but ultimately said nothing and was helped away from the horse farm.
From beginning to end, Gu Manman never looked at Miss Feng Wu again.
She threw the whip in her hand back to the frightened staff member next to her and walked out.
Behind her, Miss Feng Wu covered her rapidly swollen face, finally recovered from the pain and humiliation, and screamed hysterically: "Come back here! You bitch! How dare you hit me?! Do you know who I am?! My father is..."
The curses were unbearable to the ears, sharp and piercing.
Gu Manman walked out of the horse farm without stopping, followed by Xiao Li and others.
The few people who stayed there looked at each other.
The young man who blocked the whip for Miss Feng Wu held his back, grimaced in pain, looked at Gu Manman's receding back, then looked at Miss Feng Wu who was still going crazy, his face extremely ugly.
Another companion next to him turned pale: "It's over... Brother, it's over now..."
"What's over?" the man asked impatiently.
"You...did you hear that just now? That woman...she called the Patriarch...she called him Feng Mingzhou!"
In the entire Feng family, who dares to call out like that?

Gu Manman pulled Feng Xuexiang to sit next to her.
"Don't be afraid of him," Gu Manman turned her head and said with a smile, "Eat quickly."
Feng Xuexiang was flattered and didn't know where to put her hands.
She secretly raised her eyes to glance at the man sitting in the main seat, her heart pounding.
Not to mention her, even the usually domineering Miss Feng Wu had never had the chance to eat at the same table with the head of the family. During the holidays, she could only glance at the people of the master's family from afar in the crowd.
At this moment, she was actually sitting next to the head of the family and was personally greeted by the... future head of the family's wife.
Seeing that she didn't move, Gu Manman raised her hand and signaled the servant next to her: "Serve the food to Miss Feng. The crab meat and lion's head looks good."
Feng Mingzhou sat upright in the main seat, without moving the bowl and chopsticks in front of him.
Xiao Li stood one step behind him, reporting what happened at the horse farm.
Feng Mingzhou's face was as gloomy as water, and the air pressure around him was frighteningly low.
He looked at the bloodstain on the back of Feng Xuexiang's neck that had not yet scabbed over, with terrifying anger surging in his eyes.
If no one blocked the whip, would it have hit Manman in the face?
Thinking of this horrific situation, Feng Mingzhou clenched his fists suddenly.
"I think these people in Tianjin have been living a good life for too long."
Xiao Li immediately fell silent and lowered his head.
The atmosphere in the restaurant instantly dropped to freezing point, and even the servants held their breath.
Feng Xuexiang was so frightened that her face turned pale and the chopsticks in her hand almost fell to the ground.
Gu Manman put down the soup bowl, turned to look at Feng Mingzhou, and reached out to touch his arm gently.
"Come on, let's eat first." She said in a relaxed tone, with a hint of helplessness, "At least smile and don't scare my 'lifesaver'."
"Try it. It is said that the master chef in their kitchen stewed it for three hours." She pushed the bowl in front of Feng Mingzhou.
Feng Mingzhou glanced at her, reached out to take the bowl of soup, and took a sip.
"It tastes really good." His tone softened a bit, but the coldness in his eyes had not completely dissipated.
Feng Xuexiang didn't dare to look up and ate the food on the plate in small bites.
"Ms. Feng, don't be nervous." Gu Manman seemed to see her embarrassment and said gently, "Thank you for today."
Feng Xuexiang quickly shook her head: "I don't deserve it, Miss Gu is too polite."
Feng Mingzhou put down the bowl of soup and said, "I will arrange for the best doctor to come today to ensure that there will be no scars."
"Thank you, head of the family." Feng Xuexiang lowered her head, her voice as soft as a mosquito.
Feng Mingzhou didn't say anything else. He picked up the chopsticks, picked up some dishes and put them in Gu Manman's bowl.
"Eat more. I ate too little this morning."
Gu Manman glanced at him and knew that he was still angry about the incident at the horse farm.
"I'm fine now. Look, not even a hair is missing." She tried to lighten the mood.
Feng Mingzhou didn't respond, but picked up another piece of fish for her, checked that there were no fish bones, and put it in her bowl.
The atmosphere in the restaurant relaxed slightly.
Feng Xuexiang lowered her head to eat, not daring to make any sound.
Gu Manman chatted with Feng Mingzhou in a random manner, trying to divert his attention and stop him from thinking about the trivial matters at the horse farm.
One of Feng Mingzhou's assistants walked in.
"Someone from Miss Fifth's side came over and said that the people led by Xiao Li bumped into Miss Fifth and injured someone."
When Feng Xuexiang heard this, the chopsticks in her hand fell onto the plate with a "click".
Gu Manman put down her chopsticks and wiped the corners of her mouth with a napkin. There was a hint of amusement in her eyes. This was her ability to confuse right and wrong.
Feng Mingzhou: "Who are the people that Xiao Li brought with him? Don't they have eyes?"
"They said they didn't know this young lady... They only said that Xiao Li brought outsiders into the manor without permission, bumped into the fifth young lady, and even beat her..."
Gu Manman raised her eyebrows and made a "tsk" sound.
Feng Mingzhou turned his head and looked at Gu Manman. The coldness in his eyes melted a little. He reached out and held Gu Manman's hand on the table.
"Does your hand hurt?"
Xiao Li: “…”
His stiff back suddenly relaxed and he almost couldn't catch his breath.
When he heard someone complaining about him just now, he was almost scared to death, thinking that he was going to be the one to suffer the consequences.
As a result, the head of the family ignored it and instead worried about whether Miss Gu's hands hurt from beating someone.
Xiao Li took a deep breath, and the heart that was hanging in his throat finally fell back into his stomach.
It’s stable. Completely stable.
