Chapter 121: Shit Hits the Fan
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
“Su Shen, how could you hit me? You’re being unreasonable!” Tian Hai was helped up by Su Jing, trembling and shouting as he crawled away.
He never expected Su Shen to directly resort to violence. And since Su Shen had military experience, Tian Hai was just here to receive a beating.
He instantly regretted coming with Su Jing. He should have let this foolish woman come alone to make a scene!
“Let’s not resort to violence; let’s talk it out,” Gu Zi held onto the man’s hand, unwilling to let go.
At this moment, Su Shen’s face was filled with a heavy sense of ruthlessness. Tian Hai, that weakling, seemed entirely defenseless.
Su Shen’s eyes were crimson. Despite being a mature and steady thirty-year-old man, he now appeared to have the impetuosity of a youth.
“If something happens, I’ll take responsibility. But, he must pay the price if he dares to slander you!” He had initially thought to resolve this trouble later, but since the other party had come to him, it was time to settle the score.
When the man was furious, Gu Zi could not hold him back at all.
She simply let go of her hand, and Su Shen rushed toward Tian Hai.
“Su Shen, how can you be responsible if something happens? Just let him go.” Gu Zi said.
Only then did the man stop his steps, his gaze still glinting with coldness, like an ice blade that could pierce through the opponent’s heart.
Scared, Tian Hai kept retreating, his face flushed with anger, feeling more and more aggrieved.
He hadn’t done anything, yet he ended up being beaten like this.
Seeing Su Shen being advised by Gu Zi and refraining from further action, Tian Hai’s arrogant demeanor inflated again.
He dared not look at Su Shen and only loudly cursed at Gu Zi, “It’s all because of you, seducing me, swinging your hips! You won’t admit it and let your man beat me up! I’ll sue you both!”
Gu Zi couldn’t believe that just wanting to avoid a big scene would result in such humiliation.
Tears welled up in her beautiful eyes as she stood still, no longer intending to stop Su Shen.
Holding a stick, Su Shen walked toward Tian Hai. Seeing him serious, Su Jing screamed and fled.
With a “thud”, Tian Hai fell to the ground and clutched his leg, letting out a piercing scream.
Jin Long who had been stalking Tian Hai, followed him and Su Jing back to Daqing Village.
As soon as he returned, he saw Tian Hai on the ground.
He knew something big had happened today. Su Shen was usually cold and didn’t talk much, nor did he ever take advantage of others.
But if someone truly provoked him or hurt someone he cared about, he would act decisively.
It seemed that in Su Shen’s heart, Gu Zi had become someone significant. Otherwise, he wouldn’t have done something so reckless without considering the consequences.
Jin Long didn’t panic, just asking, “If we don’t rush him to the hospital, his leg might be permanently damaged. Should we take him?”
Seeing the man on the ground, Su Jing shouted, “Of course, we need to go! Brother, he is my boyfriend. Why would you treat me like this?”
It was the first time she had heard Tian Hai insult a woman like that, and she was also surprised.
Tian Hai’s behavior was completely different from what she usually saw, but he was still her boyfriend.
Jin Long couldn’t bear it anymore, “Boyfriend? Su Shen is your brother! He has given you money whenever you asked, and when did he ever say no to you coming back home?”
It was Su Jing herself who found these troublesome nephews annoying and didn’t want to come back home.
She disliked that the Su family was still in the countryside and was less convenient than the city.
Jin Long didn’t know where Su Jing found such trash as Tian Hai. He had long been unable to bear it.
Su Shen dropped the stick and sneered, “There will always be a place for you in the Su family. But if you want to ruin your life for such a man, I have nothing to say. You can ask Jin Long; what has this man done behind your back?”
After saying this, Su Shen signaled to Jin Long. Annoyed, Jin Long hoisted Tian Hai onto his back and walked outside.
Seeing this, Su Jing, red-eyed, spoke to Su Shen, “I will find out the truth. If he hasn’t done anything wrong, I won’t forgive you!”
After speaking, Su Jing turned and briskly followed Jin Long’s steps. The yard regained its calmness, leaving only Su Shen and Gu Zi.
Gu Zi didn’t want to bother with the idle gossip outside and pulled Su Shen inside.
In the living room, the man’s anger had not subsided as he sat silently.
Gu Zi went upstairs to check on Su Le who was napping and then came back down.
Both of them remained silent. Gu Zi approached to inspect his arm.
He had just removed the bandages and was now involved in a fight again because of her. She needed to check if the old wound was affected.
Actually, she wasn’t angry at Su Shen’s impulsive actions. People like Tian Hai were genuinely despicable and needed to be dealt with once and for all..
