Chapter 229 I canst let it pass, sorry. (1/2)
Churu knitted her brows upon receiving Lexi's word. Turning her head behind her, Churu scrutinized Lexi's poker yet cold freezing eyes. She had known all of Lexi's misconduct before she became her system's guide. However, Churu hasn't witnessed it with her own eyes. Therefore, seeing this Lexi before her, something within her sparked— it was more or less the same attraction she had with danger.
”Ohh, okay…” Nodding in understanding, Churu flew on the side as her eyes were sparkling with excitement. Although she knew she shouldn't be excited as Lexi might be put in danger, alas, her emotions right now were overflowing. At least, for once, she could see this side of Lexi before she departs.
”Huh, you don't have to deny it. Acting all clean yet chase a man like a dog.” Sneering, Gael Zhang unfiltered his words as he insulted her upfront. Yet, Lexi remained unfazed as she already admitted that mistake.
”Tsk tsk… we don't have to complicate things you know. We can always talk about this privately.” Gael Zhang scoffed as he took a step forward to her— reducing the gap between them. He sounded benevolent yet his words could also be perceived as a warning saying 'come with me so we won't have any problem.'
Lexi quickly glanced down when he took a step forward and didn't step back. ”Mr. Zhang, aren't we talking in private now? Also, please don't take another step forward— I don't like it when someone uninvited crosses my personal space.”
Lexi observed Gael Zhang's drowsy yet malicious eyes that she had never seen him bore before. Surely, he did consume a lot more drinks earlier while pretending and concealing his displeasure about earlier. Therefore, his natural behavior was slowly revealing itself which didn't surprise Lexi. After all, she had expected this much behavior from someone like him.
”What will you do then?” Raising his brows, Gael Zhang smirked as he took another step forward. At this rate, Lexi eventually had a sniff of his scent as he reeked in alcohol.
'Did he shower with wine?' Lexi looked at him from head to toe in disdain as she could not believe he really dared to take another step forward to her. What more? She got a whiff of his unpleasant odor that wasn't even comparable to Ethan Lu's sweats!
When Gael Zhang raised his left arm and attempted to reach her, Lexi swiftly slapped it with great force. That very instant, Gael Zhang felt a striking pain on the back of his tossed hand— making it numb and throbb at the same time.
”What the— what's wrong with you?!” Glaring daggers at her while gritting his teeth, Gael Zhang retrieved his pulsating hand and massaged it using his other hand. After a second, Gael Zhang took a large step as he raised his hand, taking an offense.
At the same time, Lexi also took a step forward and without further ado, she placed both her palm on his shoulder— the other hand still holding her purse and then lifted her knee— directly landing on his precious jewel.
Time stopped for Gael Zhang as the national anthem of the birds rang inside his head. His knees slowly grumbled together and bit by bit his strength and his soul escaped from his whole being. For a man, it was the most painful experience as that area was off-limits and one of their weakest points.
Soon, Gael Zhang curbed into a ball on the carpeted floor while holding his fallen comrade. On the other hand, Lexi felt no remorse as she coldly watched the man agonized on the floor.
She knew that hitting a man's precious jewel was one of the most painful assaults a man could receive, hence, she always aimed for that part while they are off guard to shut up someone she didn't like or to anyone who tried to harass her. Moreover, despite that she already recognized her past actions, she would not allow someone like Gael Zhang to use it to belittle her and think that it was her weakness.
”Mr. Zhang, we could be great friends if not for what you said and tried to do.” Still unsatisfied with what she had done, Lexi stepped her right heel on the back of his head and put pressure on it. Now, Gael Zhang was in a position as if kowtowing to her while still holding on to the thing in between his thigh.
