Chapter 65 Does it hurt?
However, Li He was not some kind of soft-hearted bodhisattva.
He slowly squatted down, grabbed Zhao Peng's hair, looked at him coldly, and whispered in a voice only the two of them could hear: "If you bully my woman, you have to pay the price. Right now, it's just the interest."
After he finished speaking, he pressed Zhao Peng hard to the ground, amidst Zhao Peng's terrified gaze!
The ground was covered with debris!
At that moment, Zhao Peng could almost hear the sound of the glass shards piercing his skin and drilling into his flesh.
This is more terrifying than any other terrifying sound!
"Ah! Ah!..." Each scream was Zhao Peng's terrified cries of pain.
Everyone present gasped in shock. The timid women didn't dare to look and turned their heads away.
The group of people in the office were all stunned and deeply shocked.
Xu Xiangying kept her head down, her brows furrowed, and dared not look at him.
Bo Wei slightly averted her gaze; she was also unaccustomed to this scene, but it wasn't out of sympathy for Zhao Peng.
Li He pressed Zhao Peng's head down while continuing to watch the video.
Suddenly, he looked up and stared at Gong Yang.
Gong Yang's breath hitched, a chill ran through his heart, making him feel cold all over from head to toe.
Li He slowly withdrew his gaze, and soon, he tossed the phone back to Huo Ran.
Looking at Zhao Peng again, he didn't dare to struggle at all. His breathing was weak, and bright red blood slowly flowed from the ground below his cheek. Only then did Li He let go of his hand.
He stood up, his eyes like those of a bloodthirsty demon, and no one dared to look at him.
Li He slowly walked towards Bo Wei, looking at her. He noticed a slight avoidance in her eyes, but he didn't seem to mind. It's normal for women to be afraid of violent scenes.
He walked straight to the nearest private room without stopping, but stopped at the door.
At this moment, he was separated from Bo Wei only by Xu Xiangying, who was shrinking her head.
Bo Wei could see the comfort in his eyes. She pursed her lips slightly to indicate that she understood and accepted it.
"Have someone bring up some wine." Li He turned to look at Huo Ran, then shifted his gaze to Gong Yang. "You, come in."
After he finished speaking, he went inside.
He left everyone behind him watching Gong Yang.
Gong Yang glanced at Zhao Peng, who was being dragged into a private room by two bodyguards, took a deep breath, and followed him in.
Huo Ran gave some instructions to the manager, then smiled and walked up to Bo Wei, saying, "Let's go in and have a seat, Secretary Bo."
Bo Wei nodded and released Xu Xiangying's hand.
Xu Xiangying gripped her hand tightly, looked at her with worry in her eyes.
Huo Ran smiled and said, "Come in, everyone. You must be tired of standing outside. We're just missing some audience members."
At this moment, inside the private room, Li He sat back on the long sofa, and Lu Xianzong sat down next to him.
Eight imposing bodyguards stood majestically behind the two.
Li He lit a cigarette, took a drag, exhaled the smoke, leaned back, crossed his right leg over his left, and instantly exuded a lazy and wicked aura.
He glanced arrogantly at the two people standing opposite the coffee table.
At this moment, Zhao Peng's face was covered in bloody holes, and blood was gushing out. His clothes were already stained with blood. Li He had shown some mercy and hadn't pressed the glass shards into his flesh.
He covered his right cheek, trembling with fear and unease.
Beside him, Gong Yang stood silently. Unlike Zhao Peng, he did not beg for mercy. He had long lost the arrogance he had shown when he first teased Bo Wei, and now only had a forced, strong expression on his face.
Huo Ran entered and was about to sit down on the other side of Li He when she suddenly paused and turned to look at Bo Wei, who was standing to the side.
He beckoned to her, and Bo Wei released Xu Xiangying's hand and stepped forward, looking at him intently.
"Go inside, after all, you are the protagonist tonight."
Bo Wei looked in the direction indicated by President Huo, which was next to President Li.
She hesitated for a moment, nodded, and walked to President Li's side.
Instead of sitting down immediately, he looked at Li He.
Li He had already noticed her arrival out of the corner of his eye, and now he looked up at her eyes.
"President Li," Bo Wei called softly.
Li He looked at her intently for a few seconds before saying softly, "Okay, sit down."
Bo Wei sat down quietly, about two fists' distance between her and Li He.
She sat down almost under President Li's unwavering gaze, and turned her head slightly stiffly to look, only to find that Li He was looking at her neck.
She reached out and touched it; it hurt a little on the side.
Does it hurt?
Bo Wei honestly said, "It hurts a little when I talk and swallow."
"Let's go to the hospital for a check-up later."
"I'm not going." She immediately refused, then realized her attitude was wrong and quickly looked at Li He to explain, "It should be fine, I don't like going to the hospital."
Li He looked at her quietly, and waited for her to finish speaking before slowly leaning closer to examine her neck more carefully.
Bo Wei did not avoid him, but slightly raised her head to let him examine her.
Li He noticed her subtle movements, and a strange look flashed in his eyes.
He quickly regained his composure and noticed that the red marks on her neck were gradually fading, but upon closer inspection, he could see that her throat was somewhat swollen. "It hurts to speak; perhaps there's an internal injury. Let's go get her checked out."
"It will be alright," Bo Wei said stubbornly.
Li He looked at her quietly again, and finally compromised, saying, "I'll have someone handle it."
Bo Wei pursed her lips and did not refuse, "Thank you, President Li."
He leaned forward and stubbed out his cigarette in the ashtray. "Speak less and get some rest."
Bo Wei immediately shut her mouth.
Huo Ran naturally didn't sit down next to Bo Wei. He said to Xu Xiangying, "Go inside and sit down."
At any other time, Xu Xiangying would never have dared to do that, but now, Bo Wei was all alone there, and she dared not disobey President Huo.
Soon, all the girls in the office sat on Bo Wei's side.
Huo Ran found a single sofa and sat down.
Outside, all the people who originally belonged to this private room came back in, but they all stood to the side.
Some of the more prominent people in the corridor also mingled in to watch the excitement.
The others outside, who dared not come in, also did not leave.
At that moment, the manager and his men brought up truckloads of alcohol.
The table had already been cleaned up, and now bottles of liquor were being placed on it, along with various cocktail mixes, quickly filling the long coffee table.
"Open all".
