Chapter 789: Ancient Noblewoman in the Ancient Text (31)
Gradually, Su Yu's tense body collapsed. She lowered her head and said nothing. She didn't dare to make a sound, nor did she dare to look at Shi Yingjin's expression.
Lu Chi raised the corners of his lips slightly, and said softly: "Don't be afraid, leave it to me next."
The two of them did not avoid Shi Yingjin at all during their conversation and were extremely arrogant.
Shi Yingjin clenched his hands hanging at his sides into fists so tightly that they began to tremble.
He stared at Su Yu, took a deep breath, and said through his teeth: "Su Yu, come here."
Su Yu subconsciously raised her head, but halfway through, her wrist was suddenly grabbed by Lu Chi behind her. The slightly cool touch brought her back to her senses and she stopped moving abruptly.
She lowered her head again, her eyes still lingering on the ground.
"Su Yu." Shi Yingjin's cold voice made people tremble.
Su Yu knew he was calling her over, but she didn't dare.
In the past, if someone was caught having an affair with a man outside of their parents' home, the person would be executed, especially if they were from a prominent family. They valued their reputation the most. After drinking a cup of poisoned wine, they would announce to the public that they had contracted an illness and died, and their parents would not dare to say a word.
There is no such rule in this world, but when Su Yu heard Shi Yingjin's voice, she felt frightened instinctively.
Lu Chi took a step forward and blocked Su Yu behind him.
He raised his eyes and met Shi Yingjin's gaze without dodging, "Ah Jin, this matter has nothing to do with her. It's all my fault. Come to me if you have anything to say. I will bear the consequences alone."
Su Yu hid behind Lu Chi, seemingly agreeing.
Shi Yingjin looked at them and suddenly sneered: "Lu Chi, you are so shameless. Do you deserve to take the responsibility alone?"
Lu Chi's face stiffened slightly, and his expression twisted for a moment.
He exhaled slowly, calmed down, and said softly, "Ajin, don't say such harsh words."
Shi Yingjin's face was so gloomy that water could drip from it, and his voice was icy cold: "You don't mind doing things that are ugly, and you are afraid of what I say?"
Lu Chi's expression remained unchanged: "Ah Jin, I know it's hard for you to accept this, but emotions cannot be controlled. You just met Su Yu earlier than me. If I had met her first, we wouldn't have to be so confrontational."
"There is no first or last in love, there is only inability to help oneself. Although you were the first one to meet Su Yu, I am the one who knows her best."
"The person Su Yu loved from beginning to end was me."
"If you really love her, just help us. You can beat her or scold her as you like."
Su Yu hid behind Lu Chi, biting her lips until they were almost broken.
Sure enough, as long as he himself is not disgusting, it is others who are disgusting. Lu Chi knows how to disgust others.
Every time Lu Chi spoke, Shi Yingjin's face turned darker, as ugly as if he had eaten a fly.
The people around him looked confused, as if they had accidentally walked into the scene of a melodrama.
Shi Yingjin took a deep breath, trying not to be influenced by Lu Chi.
A few seconds later, he picked up his phone expressionlessly and ordered the bodyguards to come over, surround the place and not let anyone in.
The person next to him was very tactful and took the initiative to leave and promised: "Brother Shi, don't worry, I won't tell anyone a word about what happened today."
Shi Yingjin didn't even look at him and nodded expressionlessly.
The man breathed a sigh of relief and quickly fled from this dangerous place. Just when he walked a short distance, he heard the sound of fists hitting flesh, accompanied by the sound of something falling on the wall, and his feet ran faster.
How dare Lu Chi do that? Doesn’t he know that Shi Ge has been learning martial arts since he was a child?
In the utility room, the cold wind was still blowing.
However, the door was open and there was some warmth inside. Su Yu's frozen arms slowly warmed up.
Shi Yingjin walked in slowly and stopped a few steps in front of the two of them.
Su Yu shrank back in fear, leaving everything to Lu Chi to deal with.
The smile in Lu Chi's eyes was not concealed: "A Jin..."
Shi Yingjin was reluctant to even glance at him. His gaze passed Lu Chi and fell on Su Yu. He could only see the girl's black hair and half of her forehead.
"Su Yu, he said so much, don't you have anything to say?"
Shi Yingjin's voice was very calm, without any sign of anger.
If the task progress bar hadn't been growing rapidly, Su Yu would have thought he had no temper.
Su Yu's body stiffened slightly and she shuddered.
An atmosphere of dead silence quietly permeated the entire utility room.
Su Yu just felt that her breathing was not smooth.
After an unknown amount of time, Su Yu opened her mouth, her voice was like a rusty part, stiff and hoarse.
"Jin, I'm sorry."
With a faint cry and fear in her voice, she hid herself a little deeper.
Lu Chi's heart sank, and he felt indescribably happy. It was a pity that this scene was not seen by more people.
"Ajin, don't scare her."
Before he could finish his words, his vision went dark for a moment and he felt a sharp pain on his cheek. Lu Chi lost his balance and bumped into the wall, stumbling two steps before he could stand firm.
Just as he steadied himself, a hand grabbed his collar, and the huge force pulled him so hard that only his toes could touch the ground. He felt a slight suffocation on his neck, and Lu Chi frowned uncomfortably.
"you……"
Just as he uttered a word, Shi Yingjin punched him again.
Lu Chi groaned.
"Shut up, your voice makes me sick."
"Isn't it that I can beat you or scold you as you like? Fine, then just stand there and take your beating."
"My woman, I need you to protect her!"
"You have such a big face, do you want me to pee in front of you?"
"Is this what the Lu family taught you?"
"You bastard, I didn't bother with you before, but you really think I'm afraid of you!"
Shi Yingjin would not hesitate to use violence when scolding others.
The two men were of similar height and build, so there was no question of who was weaker than the other. However, Lu Chi was beaten by Shi Yingjin without having the slightest chance to fight back.
Su Yu was so frightened by Shi Yingjin's ferocious look that her legs went limp and she couldn't even run. She could only watch Lu Chi being beaten until he saw stars.
[Too brutal, will Lu Chi be beaten to death?] Su Yu trembled, [Lu Chi is too useless, will I be the next one?]
Fortunately, Shi Yingjin still had some sense of propriety and did not beat Lu Chi to death on the spot.
He threw Lu Chi to the ground like trash.
Then he turned his gaze and looked at Su Yu.
Su Yu: Danger!
Su Yu couldn't help but retreat, almost shrinking herself into the corner. She was no longer afraid of the cold, because Shi Yingjin's face was even more terrifying than the cold.
"Ah Jin..."
Su Yu's voice was trembling, and it was unclear whether it was because of fear or cold.
"Ajin, I'm sorry, I'm sorry..."
Shi Yingjin had just finished beating Lu Chi, and there was still cruelty in his eyes. When he saw Su Yu's frightened expression, he paused slightly, closed his eyes, and put away his murderous gaze.
He was clearly trembling with anger, but he still couldn't bear to scare Su Yu.
He gritted his teeth and sneered, "You're scared now, what were you doing before?"
Su Yu slid down the wall and curled up into a ball: "I'm sorry..."
"Have I ever told you to stay away from Lu Zhi?" Shi Yingjin's voice seemed to contain ice. "Why, all the men in the world are dead, and he is the only one left?"
"sorry……"
Su Yu kept apologizing like this over and over again.
"That's enough! I don't want to hear an apology." Shi Yingjin closed his eyes and took a deep breath. "Until now, there is not even an explanation?"
Su Yu bit her lip: "I'm sorry..."
Shi Yingjin couldn't help but punch the wall, scaring Su Yu so much that she screamed and closed her eyes.
