C54 (1/2)

”Stop!”

A shout was heard, and the sound of the fight immediately stopped.

Fu Tianxiao stared coldly at the scene in front of him. His hand pressed down hard on Jian Chu's delicate neck. With a little more force, this woman could fall down as well.

Jane dared not move, afraid that the man behind her would shrink back. She really did not want to die, and even if she did, it should not be now. It was with great difficulty that she managed to obtain Gu Chen's favor.

”Ugh …”

Fu Tianxiao's hand tightened slightly, drawing the attention of the young woman in front of him. ”Gu Chen, do you still want to fight?”

Gu Chen did not dare move, his entire body frozen in place. However, if one were to look closely, they would be able to see that the man's hands were shaking uncontrollably.

Gu Chen furrowed his brows and asked anxiously, ”Fu Tianxiao, what are you trying to do?” Let her go! I've already told you, no matter what you do to me, you definitely can't touch her! ”

Gu Chen roared loudly, rows and rows of blue veins popping out from his neck and a fine layer of sweat forming on his forehead. However, it was clear that Fu Tianxiao was not afraid of his threats. The man coldly snorted and did not care about what he said. He used his index finger and thumb to grab Jane's throat.

”In terms of logic, you're a member of the younger generation, so it's only right for you to call me Old Man Fu. But now, you actually call me by my full name? Isn't that a bit too impolite?”

At this moment, Gu Chen had no time to worry about anything else. As long as Jane was alive, intact, that was enough.

”Fu Tianxiao, don't be too outrageous. I know you have a grudge against both parties, but our Gu family is not a pushover. If you really want to play, I can accompany you. Let her go!”

Fu Tianxiao smiled helplessly. The wrinkles at the corner of his eyes began to appear. He smiled sinisterly at Gu Chen, ”Is what you say true?” ”Why should I listen to you?”

Fu Tianxiao waved his hands towards the few black clothed men and ordered, ”Tie him up for me. I want this girl's fingers! No matter who it is, even if it's the god, I will still cut off her finger! ”

Gu Chen took a big stride forward. At the same time, Fu Tianxiao immediately tightened his grip on Jian Chen's hand.

The feeling of suffocation was too terrifying. She wanted to pretend that nothing had happened and not let Gu Chen worry about her. However, the moment the hand around her neck tightened, she felt an excruciating pain.

Gu Chen immediately stopped moving. The man in black rushed forward and tied him up, pressing him down on a nearby stool.

Fu Tianxiao ordered someone to move the house over to the table beside the sickbed. He also found a sharp knife. The knife wasn't very long, it was at least the length of a grown woman's palm, but it was very sharp. It was dazzled by the incandescent lamp above her head.

Fu Tianxiao wasn't polite at all. He forcefully put Jane's hand on the white iron table. Since she wanted to cut off her finger, she thought, as long as she kept clenching her fist, there was no way for her to reveal her finger. This way, she could avoid danger, but from behind, the man's words made her obediently open her palm.

”If you're holding a fist, I don't mind chopping off your entire hand.”

The sharp knife was tightly held in Fu Tianxiao's hand. It was only a few centimeters away from Jian Chen's hand. If he were slightly closer, his skin and flesh would be able to touch the blade emitting a cold light.

Gu Chen tore at the rope tied around him in excitement, but he was held down by the surrounding black-clothed men. The weight of the four of them pressed down on him, rendering him powerless even if he tried to move his body.

”Jane Chu …”

Gu Chen whimpered softly, not knowing what to do. He had no power to do anything now, so he could only watch helplessly as everything happened. The feeling was unbearable, especially when the woman he loved was currently suffering.

Of course, Jane was scared, but she clenched her teeth to prevent herself from showing any signs of fear. ”Little girl, I won't take your life either. It's just a small cut on your body, leaving behind a finger. What do you have to say for yourself now?”
