"Fuck, who the fuck doesn't know what's good for him? Screw the..."

Before he could finish his sentence, someone grabbed Chen Qian by the collar and kicked him hard in the chest.

His plump body hit the glass coffee table, shattering the ground with fragments. Several sharp ones pierced into Chen Qian's back, causing him to scream in pain.

"Gu Jin?"

Ji Xiao clutched her chest, her nose tingling and tears streamed down her cheeks.

Gu Jin looked down at her with anger in his face. However, when he saw how pitiful she looked, he sighed in the end. He took off his jacket and covered her with it. After wrapping her up tightly, he carried her into the private room next door.

"Stay here. I'll be back soon."

Ji Xiao was shocked. She grabbed Gu Jin by the corner of his clothes, tears welling up in her eyes. "Where are you going?"

Half of her face was already swollen. Gu Jin looked even colder and pursed his thin lips tightly. He lowered his head and slowly rolled up the sleeves of his white shirt.

"Deal with the aftermath."

After that, Gu Jin closed tightly the clothes on Ji Xiao and knocked on her forehead with his knuckles. "Wait for me obediently."

Watching him leave, Ji Xiao felt a surge of warmth in her heart.

This was probably the feeling of having someone backing her up.

After a while, Chen Qian screamed from next door. Judging from the sound, Gu Jin had probably hit him very hard.

About ten minutes later, Gu Jin walked into the private room, holding the bag that Ji Xiao had just brought in and the contract.

"Here." He threw the contract on the table.

Ji Xiao picked it up and saw that the name of Chen Qian was written on it.

? ? ?

Was this what he meant by dealing with the aftermath? She thought it was just giving Chen Qian a piece of mind.

"Will that work?" Ji Xiao asked.

"Why not?" Gu Jin muttered to himself. "I am right here. How dare he play tricks in front of me?"

Everyone knew how famous Gu Jin was in A City. Who would dare to mess with the God of Wealth at the top of the food chain? Ji Xiao thought for a moment and agreed.

While they were talking, someone knocked on the door and looked in.

Ji Xiao recognized him as Gu Jin 's driver. He walked in with a bag containing some ointment.

Only then did Ji Xiao remember that she had been slapped in the face by Chen Qian. She touched her face and then gasped in pain. Half of her face had gone numb.

"Don't move."

Gu Jin's voice came to her ears. She didn't know when he got so close to her that she could even clearly feel his breath when he spoke.

Ji Xiao's body suddenly stiffened.

She felt a cold touch fall on her cheek. Looking sideways, it was Gu Jin's serious side face. He had dipped a cotton swab in the ointment and was gently applying it to her face.

Chen Qian had hit Ji Xiao so hard that the corner of her mouth was bruised. Ji Xiao gasped in pain when the ointment touched her.

"Damn it."

Gu Jin cursed in a low voice. He stood up and was about to walk out when Ji Xiao hurriedly pulled him back.

"Where are you going?"

"I didn't hit him hard just now."

He looked at Ji Xiao coldly.

"Forget it. You've just taught him a lesson," Ji Xiao said.

Moreover, judging from the sound next door, Chen Qian seemed to have been beaten badly.

Gu Jin did not say anything and just sat back down.

"Quit this job."

It was a familiar commanding tone.

"No." Ji Xiao subconsciously refused.

Gu Jin frowned. In the past, Ji Xiao would never refute his word. Now, he just asked her to resign. Why did she reject him so quickly.

"I told you to resign, Ji Xiao." His voice was tinged with anger.

"No."

Still, Ji Xiao refused.

"I'm not asking for your opinion, Ji Xiao. I'm informing you."

Ji Xiao looked at him. Even now, she still loved him. After what had happened recently, she even felt that her love seemed to have become stronger.

She was cute. She was not blindly obedient.

"Where I work is my freedom. You have no right to restrict my freedom. This is my first real job, I want to take it seriously."

"I didn't restrict your freedom. If you like to work, you can go back to Gu's Group. Just like before, no one can stop you, or I can give you a company. You can do whatever you want."

Gu Jin looked at her in annoyance.

"Which one is better than you are working in this company?"

"It's different! I just want to get what I want with my own efforts. I don't want to rely on you and the Gu family!"

Ji Xiao was so anxious that her face turned red, but she did not hesitate to speak like that.

Gu Jin suppressed the anger in his heart and his expression turned grave.

"No one can stop you if you want to work hard, but do you have the ability yourself?"

"What if I didn't see that message today? What if I didn't come? Do you know how serious the consequences will be!"

Although they had added each other on WeChat, they would not send a message for tens of thousands of years. Today, she suddenly sent a message, and it was only about her location. She was in such a complicated place. No matter how he thought about it, he knew that something was wrong.

Only God knew how much he wanted to kill the fat and disgusting man when he kicked the door open and saw him pressing down on her.

He didn't want to see the despair and pain in Ji Xiao again.

Even now, when he thought about it, he still felt a pain in his heart.

"You can take care of me now and let Gu's Group support me, but what about in the future? What about after the divorce? I have to live."

Ji Xiao looked at Gu Jin's dark eyes. She had always liked his eyes the most. They seemed to contain a sea of stars.

"I don't think your future wife will be generous enough to tolerate you supporting your ex-wife, will she?"

Gu Jin frowned.

"I can't appear in time every time."

Ji Xiao stared at him quietly, tears filling up in her eyes at some point.

"I have taken care of myself during these two years of marriage, Gu Jin."

Gu Jin clenched his fists and looked at Ji Xiao, whose eyes were red but still smiled. His heart tightened.

That's right, he hadn't even participated in a single day during the two years of their marriage.

"I can add a support agreement to the divorce agreement. I can..."

"Gu Jin," Ji Xiao smiled and interrupted Gu Jin softly, "I don't want to owe you anything anymore. I don't want anything. I just want us to be even."

The divorce was already a foregone conclusion, so let her leave in a more dignified way.

Gu Jin raised his eyes and looked at her coldly. There seemed to be a bone-chilling coldness in the depths of his eyes.

His cell phone rang at this time, and he picked it up.

They were so close that she could hear the man's voice on the phone clearly.

"Mr. Gu, Miss Su fell accidentally when she went downstairs, she's on her way to the hospital now."

"I'll be right there."

As he spoke, he had already walked quickly to the door.

Ji Xiao stood rooted to the spot. He opened the door, turned to look at her, and left without hesitation.

Look, in front of the person he loved the most, everything was sheer fiction.
