Sure enough, Lin Qingyue panicked and immediately pushed Chen Fan away.
Without hesitation, she threw the bouquet at his face.
âYou ⦠How dare you.â
pdog.
âYou ⦠how can you act like this?â
âSorry, I lost control. I thought ⦠you liked me too.â
âLike you? You scumbag, Iâd never like you. If it werenât for your family, why would I even interact with you? You rely on nothing but your family. Your father has power, your mother has money, but what can you do? All you do is live off your family without contributing anything. What else can you even do?â
Without hesitation, Ye Aotian rushed forward, stepping between Chen Fan and Lin Qingyue.
âWell, well, Young Master Chen, now youâre resorting to force? If a woman doesnât like you, donât make things difficult for her. Thatâs not very gentlemanly.â
âWhere did this random stray come from? How dare you be so impudent with me? Security! Has Lin Real Estate gotten so low that they let beggars in now?â
Lin Qingyue looked at Ye Aotian.
âIf youâre injured, you shouldnât be stirring up trouble.â
âThank you for your concern, but I just happened to run into some random strays. Some people donât dare act openly, so they resort to underhanded methods.â
Chen Fan was utterly confused.
But after glancing at the situation, it clickedâ
âYeah, I had you beaten up. So what?â
Ye Aotian was stunned, asking, âSo youâre admitting it?â
âYeah, Iâm admitting it. What of it? Got a problem? Not only did I have someone beat you up, but Iâm also planning to have you taken out. You think youâre worthy of stealing my woman?â
âYouâre courting death! Donât think that just because youâre in Qincheng, you can do whatever you want.â
Chen Fan stood his ground, replying, âSo what if I can do whatever I want? Go ahead, hit me.â
His internal monologue screamed:
Ye Aotian stared daggers at Chen Fan.
Meanwhile, Lin Qingyue had already stepped back, knowing full well what was about to happen.
To her, she disliked both of themâChen Fan for being fake and pretending to care for her, and Ye Aotian for being an idiot.
She had only meant to say that he shouldnât meddle, but Ye Aotian took it as concern for him?
Ye Aotian, with his remaining hand, gathered all his strength and punched Chen Fan square in the chest.
Instantly, the force of the blow made Ye Aotianâs fist hurt, as if his bones were about to crack. But he endured the pain, refusing to cry out.
Chen Fan, in that moment, let out a dramatic yell, threw himself backward, and flew across the room, landing hard on the ground.
Ye Aotian stared at his now-bloodied, possibly fractured fist, slightly dazed.
Meanwhile, Chen Fan, lying on the ground, pointed at Ye Aotian, shouting, âYou ⦠you dare hit me? Do you know who I am? Youâre dead! You hit me in Qincheng, just waitâIâll make sure you die slowly.â
âBring it on. Others may be afraid of you, but Iâm not.â
After delivering his lines, Chen Fan collapsed, closing his eyes. There was nothing more for him to do.
Ye Aotian turned around, his injured hand now bleeding profusely. It looked like he was indeed hurt.
âWe meet again.â
Lin Qingyue remained silent.
âI wonder, would you give me a chance to have dinner with you? To get to know each other better?â
Chen Fan silently shouted in his mind,
âMeh.â
Ye Aotian had just said so much, and Lin Qingyue responded with one word.
Ye Aotian was also taken aback, asking, âWhat do you mean by that?â
âNothing. I just donât feel like talking to you.â
With that, she signaled for people to lift Chen Fan onto a stretcher.
After all, Chen Fanâs condition was more pressing. As for Ye Aotian, just like Chen Fan wrote in his diary:
That kind of person deserves a scolding.
Lying on the stretcher, Chen Fan squinted at the utterly bewildered Ye Aotian.
Lin Qingyue said, âTake him to the hospital quickly. If anything happens to him, none of you will have a good time. And you, Ye Aotian.â
