Tangling with the Western Commander-Chapter 573 - 570

She laughed coldly as she slowly lifted her head to stare at the middle-aged woman and declared, word by word,

"My parents are down there. So, Auntie, are you trying to send your woman to her death today?"

As soon as these words were out, the woman became furious. She lifted her hand and slapped Li Zaijun across the face, cursing,

"Slut! What nonsense are you spouting, how dare you curse my daughter."

Anger surged through Tong Le as she wanted to intervene, but at this crucial moment, all she could do was to hold her phone steady and record everything.

She’d settle the score with her later!

Li Zaijun’s face was knocked to the side, the already swollen cheek reddened even more from the slap.

Xu Wenbin’s girlfriend, witnessing this scene, couldn’t help but laugh disdainfully.

Li Zaijun laughed too, but her smile was ice cold.

She touched the cheek that had been hit with the tip of her tongue—it hurt and felt numb.

She looked towards Tong Le and suddenly asked,

"Done?"

Tong Le quickly nodded her head.

If it’s done, that’s good!

So the next second, Li Zaijun swiftly raised her hand and slapped the woman across the face.

"Smack——!"

Accompanied by a crisp sound, the woman’s eyes widened in disbelief at the sight.

Everyone was shocked.

After the woman recovered, she was furiously indignant, spitting out,

"Just as I thought, a little slut without parents—today I’m going to teach you a lesson on their behalf—"

As she spoke, she raised her hand to slap down again.

But this time, just as Li Zaijun was about to dodge, abruptly, a large hand appeared out of thin air...!

It firmly caught the woman’s wrist in its grip.

The strength was so great that she couldn’t move another inch.

"Who dares to—" the woman looked over angrily, but froze upon seeing who it was.

When Li Zaijun subconsciously looked over, she was also stunned.

Because the person...

was wearing an exquisite black suit.

He stood tall and straight, with long brows and eyes, handsome features, and an elegance that exuded a carefree laziness, his every move carried an extraordinary air of nobility.

Especially the Patek Philippe watch worth more than two million on his wrist—blindingly ostentatious.

This man, was actually... Shen Lin.

Li Zaijun was dumbfounded, presumably never having imagined that he would appear here.

Could it be, he was the reinforcements her sister-in-law had brought in, the temporary stand-in for her guardian?

Tong Le beside her was smitten, thinking how incredibly handsome this man was.

And now...

Shen Lin looked down condescendingly at the woman, a lazy smile at the corner of his lips, as if he were both amused and not,

"Madam, can’t we have a proper conversation? There’s no need to be so hands-on."

With that said, his eyes glanced over at the short-haired young girl beside him.

However, as his gaze fell upon the swollen redness on her fair cheeks, his expression momentarily stiffened. freewebnσvel.cøm

Then, the smile on his lips gradually faded, and the atmosphere around him subtly took on a chilling undertone.

The woman, faced with the sudden appearance of this distinguished man, sized him up and down but still scoffed coldly,

"Sorry sir, this is a matter between her and me, it has nothing to do with you, does it?"

No sooner had her words fallen than Shen Lin gave a light laugh, though there seemed to be an increasing hint of impatience within his eyes.

He didn’t respond but instead looked straight at Li Zaijun and said,

"Tell her, who am I to you?"

With the question tossed directly at her, Li Zaijun was momentarily stunned, at a loss for how to reply.

Who was he to her...?
