Chapter 92

Outside, there were still so many prying eyes watching. If Lu Lingchuan truly harmed Zou Zhijie, it would surely invite unnecessary trouble.

"Lu Lingchuan." Shen Nian shook her head. "Calm down..."

Lu Lingchuan's breathing was heavy, the crimson in his eyes refusing to fade.

But upon hearing Shen Nian's voice, the little rationality he had left increased slightly.

Seeing his emotions had slightly eased, Shen Nian carefully tried to take the wine bottle from his hand.

Fortunately, Lu Lingchuan didn't struggle, allowing her to take it.

After taking the wine bottle from him, Shen Nian immediately threw it aside, finally breathing a sigh of relief. Lu Lingchen at the door also let out a breath of relief.

If his brother had truly acted, it would have caused a lot of trouble.

Ling Rui's case had yet to be resolved. Feuding with President Zou's side now would only be adding fuel to the fire.

The hotel manager had come over earlier, bringing a bunch of security guards. It was Lu Lingchen who had calmed the manager, preventing them from calling the police.

"Lu Lingchuan." Shen Nian called his name again, staring at his tightly clenched fist, the veins protruding on the back of his hand.

Although he had changed greatly after Ling Rui's passing, he would never lose his composure and rationality like this unless something major had happened.

Shen Nian's voice gradually pulled Lu Lingchuan back. He gazed at her, looking her up and down.

Her clothes were tidy, with no signs of mistreatment.

He then released Zou Zhijie, who was so frightened he had nearly wet his pants, and pulled Shen Nian out of the private room.

The manager and security guards at the door dared not provoke the King of Hell, silently clearing a path for them.

It wasn't until much later that Zou Zhijie finally recovered from the shock and became enraged. "Lu Lingchuan has gone too far!"

Lu Lingchen did not leave with them, instead staying behind to clean up the aftermath.

Hearing President Zou's words, Lu Lingchen burst into laughter. "President Zou, you seem to be turning the tables here."

"..."

"..."

There was nothing more to say between them. Lu Lingchen then turned his gaze to Manager Yu and Vice Manager Chen.

Although he hadn't witnessed them condoning Zou Zhijie's exploitation of Shen Nian, the fact that they hadn't said a word while she was mistreated showed their stance.

"It seems the two managers approve of exploitation?" Lu Lingchen said with a mocking smile.

"Manager... Manager Lu," the two managers stammered, tongue-tied.

"No... not at all..." They tried to explain, both filled with regret.

"Not what?" Lu Lingchen's smile deepened as he spoke slowly.

"Assistant Shen, Young Master Zou seems like a nice guy. Why don't you just go along with it?"

"..." The Manager Yu closest to him froze, his face contorting in horror as his body began to tremble.

Lu Lingchen mocked, "Manager Yu, those were your words, weren't they?"

"..."

He then looked at Vice Manager Chen beside him. "When Manager Yu said that, Vice Manager Chen remained silent, which amounts to tacit approval?"

"..."

Staring at the two of them, Lu Lingchen's smile faded as he coldly stated, "The Lingrui Group has gotten to where it is today through capability and hard work, not crooked means! Even if it wasn't Assistant Shen today, no female employee of ours is to be sacrificed for the sake of achieving a goal!"

"It seems the two of you hold vastly different life values, value systems, and world views from the Lingrui Group. If that's the case, I have no need to keep you both. Please submit your resignation letters to my email by tomorrow. I'll approve them personally."

Leaving them with those words, Lu Lingchen walked out with Shen Nian's belongings, ignoring their pleas for him to stay.

Reaching the door, he took a card from his pocket and handed it to the manager. "For the door that was kicked in and anything broken inside, please make a list so we can provide full compensation."

...

Lu Lingchuan drove away with Shen Nian, who kept watching him.

His mood was poor now. Driving in this state was very dangerous, so Shen Nian looked around before speaking to Lu Lingchuan.

"Lu Lingchuan, find a place to stop and calm down."UppTodated from nô/v/e/lb(i)n.c(o)/m
