Chapter 19

Reddened Face & Thumping Heart

Since Chi Zuxu did not reveal his presence when Li Chenyu came over yesterday to apologize, the latter naturally did not know who he was. The sight of the older man playing hero to save the damsel in distress instantly enraged him. His temper flared up at once as he stormed forward. “Listen up, if you don’t want to get beaten, you’d better scram now!! Chi Yi’s my woman. If anyone dares fight me for her, I won’t let that person off!!”

The older man’s sharp gleaming eyes swept across the young chap like a blade.

It was at that moment that he finally understood the reason for her impulse to beat up that fella.

That brat truly needed a good thrashing!

As soon as Li Chenyu finished speaking, he flung a solid punch at his opponent.

“Uncle, watch out!!”

Chi Yi let out a shriek in fright.

With a nimble dodge, Chi Zuxu grabbed hold of the attacker’s outstretched arm with his big hand and tugged it backwards. The loss of balance sent the lad stumbling forward.

Thump!

His face instantly landed right smack onto the cement floor with blood gushing out from his nose at once. He could not look any more haggard and disheveled than this!

The lass almost clapped her hands in glee.

With his face looking dark and sullen, her uncle proceeded to give his assistant a call .”One, I must see the acquisition plan of Likang Technology Group by today!! Two, don’t let me see Li Chenyu appearing at First Middle School ever again!!”

He coldly ended the call and looked down condescendingly at the chap’s ashen face.

By now, the latter had belatedly realized that this man… was the highly revered commercial Satan that his father had mentioned — Chi Zuxu! Also, Chi Yi’s Third Uncle!

“Tell your father that he has a promising son indeed. If not for his capable son, Likang Technology Group would neither be targeted by the Chi Corporation nor be forced to leave the business scene.”

After dropping those cold and indifferent words on him, Chi Zuxu turned around and left.

Upon seeing his niece standing rooted to the spot in a daze, he gloomily asked, “Aren’t you leaving?”

“… Ah! I’m leaving! Of course, I’m leaving!!”

She quickly followed after him.

Her third uncle’s overwhelming aura truly left the young girl awed and dazed!

That domineering and aggressive side of him is really… cool!!

Once seated in the car, she could not resist asking the man, “Why are you here, Third Uncle?”

“I’m just passing by,” he answered coldly before shooting her a glimpse. “If I didn’t come, surely you would be hugged by him already?”

“Absolutely not!” Chi Yi wrinkled her nose. “I won’t let him hug me at all! Guys like him no longer interest me. From now on, I want to find someone like you. Mature, earnest, rich, talented, and handsome with a great figure…”

“Then you can’t forget about marrying in this lifetime.”

“Why?”

“Can you find such a rare and outstanding man like me just anywhere?”

“If not, I’ll get married…”

“Hm?”

“N-Nothing…”

What she wanted to say was:

I’ll get married to you then!

How could she possibly say those words out loud, though?

With a reddened face like a cute little tomato, she hastily turned away and looked out of the window.
