Chapter 1398: Nianyao and Mo Xicheng (71)
Mo Xicheng felt as though his chest was being tightly squeezed.
It was so painful that it was hard to breathe.
s.h.i.+ Nianyao was in such a state and yet, her first instinct had been to say she was alright so that he wouldn’t be worried.
Although her life had not been in any danger this time, what about the next time?
He had tolerated Mo Zhi to no end and given in time after time to Yao Lili, just in exchange for some peace, but what was the result?
Perhaps it was true that some things were as Yao Lili said.
One had to fight for certain things in life whether one wished to or not.
Mo Zhi, who was lying on the floor, picked himself up and stared at the two of them, smirking, “Mo Xicheng, what brings you here? Let me tell you this. She is my fiancee! This woman is mine! If you’re smart, step aside, otherwise both my parents and your mother will not let you off easily.”
“If you spare a thought for s.h.i.+ Nianyao, then you will let her go! Wasn’t this how you handled things in school years ago?”
His words agitated Mo Xicheng.
He lifted his head and put s.h.i.+ Nianyao down. Then he walked towards Mo Zhi one step at a time.
Mo Zhi was frightened and retreated a few steps, staring at Mo Xicheng and asking, “What- what do you want?”
“Mo Xicheng, I’m warning you, if you even harm a single hair on my body, I’ll tell Dad to punish you!”
However as soon as he had said this, he received a merciless punch from Mo Xicheng.
Mo Xicheng was like an enraged bull that had been waiting to unleash all the pent-up anger from the insults and mistreatment of the last years.
Especially when the image of s.h.i.+ Nianyao in that sorry state flashed in his mind, he was so angry he could kill someone.
One punch, and then another.
He hit Mo Zhi’s face without holding back.
“Mo Xicheng, how dare you hit me?!”
“Mo Xicheng, let me go!”
“…”
“Mo Xicheng, stop it, stop hitting me.”
“Mo Xicheng, I admit my mistake. Let me go, sob, sob.”
“Sob, sob.”
At the end, Mo Zhi’s face was so swollen his own mother wouldn’t have recognized him.
His lips had swollen up like sausages and two of his teeth had been knocked out, so he spoke with a lisp.
Finally, he was on the ground trembling and not able to speak another word.
There wasn’t a spot on his body that hadn’t been beaten up.
When Mo Xicheng was exhausted from beating the man up, he sat back down on the floor with a thump.
He glared at Mo Zhi, his eyes burning like he was out on a kill. Mo Zhi s.h.i.+vered at that look and opened his mouth in an attempt to plead to be let go, but no words came.
Mo Xicheng turned to look at s.h.i.+ Nianyao.
Right now, she was probably in the best physical state among all of them.
The effect of the drug had worn off and she was regaining strength. She struggled a little to get onto her feet.
Then she dashed over to take a look at the b.l.o.o.d.y wound on Mo Xicheng’s forehead and exclaimed, “Mo Xicheng, are you alright?”
The man held her hand tightly and turned to Mo Zhi. And even though there wasn’t much strength left in him, he spoke clearly and with no uncertainty, “Mo Zhi, I’m warning you, if you dare to do anything to her ever again, I will kill you.”
These words were spoken as though came from the depths of h.e.l.l, bringing with them a murderous undertone.
Mo Zhi who was still lying on the floor, s.h.i.+vered again.
After saying this, Mo Xicheng felt darkness closing in on him. He turned towards s.h.i.+ Nianyao, as though still worried about her. But unable to hold up any longer, he pa.s.sed out.
