Contract Marriage: Boss, Let's divorce-Chapter 908 - 907: Don’t Touch Xiaxia’s Child (27)

The truth?

Just hearing those two words, Xiao Chen felt a bitterness, a pain, a sting in his heart.

What the truth was, he knew better than anyone. He truly believed that if he helped her just that once, relieved her of her hatred, she might have a moment of awakening. But in the end, he was terribly wrong.

His face was tightly drawn, his thin lips pressed firmly together, and the veins on his forehead pulsed slightly. He closed his eyes, not knowing how much effort it took to suppress his anger. He still said nothing, just reached out again to grab Ling Yunshu’s hand, wanting to take her away from here.

Ling Yunshu was also full of anger. Xiao Chen had always been on her side; even if he didn’t help her, he wouldn’t stop her. However, now he was angry with her, furious even, and was trying to stop her.

Everyone was already on Ling Chuxia’s side; now even Xiao Chen wanted to help her. Her gaze grew increasingly sinister and fierce. No matter what, today she was determined to expose those photos and ruin Ling Chuxia’s reputation.

She dodged Xiao Chen’s outstretched hand and reached out with the other to snatch the USB in his hand, "Give me the USB! I’m going through with this today, you won’t stop me."

This one sentence snapped the last string of hope Xiao Chen had for her. His hand, which had been about to grab her, suddenly rose forcefully and slapped Ling Yunshu hard across the face.

A sharp "slap" echoed, startling both of them.

Ling Yunshu held her face with one hand, staring at Xiao Chen in disbelief. Her eyes glared fiercely, her eyes red, and her lips trembling, "You... you actually hit me?"

Xiao Chen hadn’t expected himself to lose control and hit Ling Yunshu. He stared blankly at his own hand, which was trembling uncontrollably.

The look in Ling Yunshu’s eyes at that moment was terrifying, as if she wanted to devour him whole.

"Xiao Chen, you hit me, you actually hit me?"

Ling Yunshu muttered as if chanting these words, her mind snapping back from the shock. She suddenly lunged at Xiao Chen like a madwoman, "Xiao Chen, how dare you hit me!"

Ling Chuxia slapped her, Ji Xinxin slapped her, and now even Xiao Chen slapped her?

What right did he have? What right? 𝚏𝗿𝗲𝐞𝚠𝕖𝐛𝗻𝗼𝐯𝕖𝚕.𝚌𝗼𝗺

As Ling Yunshu charged at him, she raised her hand and unhesitatingly slapped Xiao Chen twice on the face, sending him stumbling back two steps.

But those two slaps snapped him back to reality, realizing that if they caused too much of a commotion here, it would easily attract others’ attention. No matter what, he had to get Ling Yunshu out of here as soon as possible!

Xiao Chen stood still, letting her finish, then reached out and grabbed her wrist, gripping it tightly. With his other hand, he wrapped around her waist, allowing no resistance, and forcefully dragged her out of the screening room.

No matter how frantically Ling Yunshu struggled, she was still just a woman, and her strength was no match for Xiao Chen’s. He dragged her all the way to the hall, which was bustling with activity. The banquet had officially started; people were dancing, chatting, eating, and drinking. No matter how angry and frantic she was inside, she had no choice but to forcibly suppress it at that moment.
