At this point, Ji Huaishen's gaze fell on Lu Chi, his expression sinister and ruthless.
"Then next time, you'll lose your life."
Lu Chi was frightened by Ji Huaishen's gaze.
He only paused for a moment before breaking into a wide smile, a smile that exuded a roguish charm.
"My heart and my life have long belonged to Mu Xiaocheng. If I lose them, I lose them."
He spoke casually, but the smile had long since vanished from his eyes.
He had used almost all his strength during the fight, and had sweated a lot and was breathing rapidly, but Ji Huaishen... had a cold expression and remained calm, breathing steadily, as if nothing had happened.
Ji Huaishen is a terrifying man. Although he is not afraid, he has no confidence to compete with him.
Although he only wanted to test his strength in this duel, he was useless and was instantly defeated by this man.
Ji Huaishen took the white towel handed to him by Gu Zuo, wiped his hands, and said with a slight part of his thin lips, "See the guest out."
Lu Chi suddenly spoke up again, shouting, "Ji Huaishen, although you're married to Mu Xiaocheng, she doesn't love you. As long as she doesn't have you in her heart right now, I still have a chance. So, I won't give up. I don't care what you have... Hey, hey, what are you doing? I haven't finished speaking yet!"
Before he could finish speaking, Gu Zuo and Gu You grabbed his shoulders and half-dragged him out.
Ji Huaishen looked in Lu Chi's direction, his eyes darkening slightly.
Heh~
The little guy is quite charming; one after another came, each more difficult than the last.

Mu Xiaocheng and Song Guiran stayed at the hospital for a while. Since Song Yansheng was being taken care of by Yang Pu, and Song Guiran had to go to class the next day, the two went back.
Song Guiran was sitting in the passenger seat, just about to play on her phone, when she received a text message.
He stared at the text message for a while, then glanced furtively at Mu Xiaocheng.
I glanced at it several times, but didn't say anything.
Mu Xiaocheng glanced at him sideways: "Say what you have to say quickly, don't affect my driving."
Song Guiran put her phone in her pocket, sat up straight, and smiled sweetly.
"Sister Xiaocheng, my classmate invited me to go to karaoke, would you like to come with me?"
Mu Xiaocheng frowned upon hearing his words and said, "Don't you have class tomorrow? Going to karaoke now, do you want to get beaten up?"
Song Guiran shrank back and said with a wronged expression, "It won't delay my class."
The sound was very soft, but Mu Xiaocheng heard it clearly.
She glanced at Song Guiran again and glared at him. Song Guiran immediately changed his mind and said, "Let's go back soon, since you're afraid of the dark."
Upon hearing his words, Mu Xiaocheng suddenly tightened her grip on the square plate.
Yes.
She's afraid of the dark.
Despite Mu Xiaocheng's tough, fearless demeanor, there are things in this world that she is afraid of.
She is very afraid of the dark.
Especially in a room where there is no light at all, the kind of darkness.
That darkness would suffocate her, and all the unsettling memories would flood her mind at that moment, dominating her nerves, filling her with fear, and even driving her to the brink of collapse.
So even when she's sleeping, Mu Xiaocheng will turn on a bedside lamp so she can fall asleep.
Shen Yiming once jokingly said to her: "Our little sweet orange is the only upright person who lives in the light."
Although it was said in jest, it's true.
Everything she experienced in her childhood left her with an inescapable sense of fear that relentlessly erupted in the endless darkness.
