Chapter 66 Breaking Up on the Street

Chapter 66 Breaking Up on the Street

Shi Yu had just turned Lin Yao around in his arms when he noticed that something was off with her.

The young girl couldn't stop panting in his embrace.

One of her hands unconsciously clutched his suit jacket as if she were using all her strength, her fingertips trembling slightly, as if desperately suppressing something.

At that moment, a black Rolls-Royce pulled up beside them and stopped.

Li Jun got out from the driver's seat and hurried to Shi Yu's side, checking him over with an unusually anxious look.

Several bodyguards responsible for dealing with Song Shuyun also returned at this time.

The bodyguards had stern faces, and the leader coolly said, "Young Master, everything has been taken care of. We left two people to report it to the police."

Li Jun frowned and interjected, "Did that punch you threw affect your wound? What if it reopened..."

Shi Yu ignored both of them.

He supported Lin Yao's waist with one hand and lifted her obviously distressed face with the other.

"Don't be afraid, no one will bully you... let me take a look."

His hoarse voice gently coaxed her, deep and soothing.

The tall young man enveloped the girl in his arms, shielding her from Li Jun and the nearby bodyguards' view as he examined her face.

Li Jun, who was deliberately blocked, remained silent.

The several burly bodyguards awkwardly rubbed their noses, deciding to pretend they hadn't seen Li Jun being sidelined, and stepped back a few paces, lowering their heads.

Lin Yao's wet, deer-like eyes were now filled with mist.

She had been trembling and suppressing her emotions because she thought she saw Shi Yu.

That familiar embrace.

And the faint, cool scent of wood.

But it couldn't be.

How could it be Shi Yu?

He was clearly enjoying the adulation inside Ding Yan Lou, far removed from her world.

Yet, when her cheek was lifted by his cool fingertips, she saw the familiar yet distant face.

Shi Yu's more defined and sharp features filled her vision.

It was indeed Shi Yu...

Really Shi Yu...

In the early autumn streets of the capital, ahead lay a dark alley, behind was the brightly lit Ding Yan Lou, and the distant road hummed with traffic.

A crisp slap broke through the silence.

"Smack."

The girl raised her hand and slapped the handsome young man across the face.

A clear imprint of five fingers appeared on his pale skin.

Everyone froze.

Li Jun gaped in shock.

The bodyguards, who had been looking down to avoid seeing anything, glanced up briefly before quickly lowering their heads again, forgetting to intervene.

Their young master acted as if nothing had happened, not even flinching, and pulled the crying girl back into his arms.

"Baby, where does it hurt? Let me see."

Not only did he not get angry, but he also patiently comforted her.

Fortunately, after checking on Lin Yao, it seemed she was just drunk.

Shi Yu furrowed his brow. She had dared to drink excessively without him there.

"No... don't look at me..." Lin Yao struggled in his arms, pushing him away, "I hate you, don't touch me..."

Her voice was soft and sweet, but the words were hurtful.

"Shi Yu, I... I want to tell you... I... don't want you anymore. We have no relationship, no relationship at all..."

Li Jun immediately sensed Shi Yu's mood souring.

He hadn't reacted to the slap on the street, but hearing the girl say she didn't want him or hate him made his face gradually turn cold.

Shi Yu softly tsked and glanced at the onlookers.

The six burly bodyguards, lined up, quickly lowered their heads to stare at their shoes.

Li Jun cleared his throat and said, "Why don't we settle this somewhere else? It won't look good if it reaches the chairman."

Implying that another slap might embarrass the chairman.

Shi Yu withdrew his icy gaze from Li Jun and the others, lowered his eyelids, and gently coaxed, "Baby, you're drunk. Let's go home."

He ignored Lin Yao's resistance and pulled the struggling girl into his arms, carrying her to the car.

Li Jun opened the car door for them, inadvertently noticing that the young girl, unable to break free, either from crying or due to the alcohol, had buried her head and bitten down on their young master's shoulder.

Strangely, the young master didn't even grunt, allowing the girl to vent her anger by biting him.

He even lowered his gaze, gently patting her back to soothe her.

Li Jun: "…"

Suddenly finding it amusing.

He had thought that their old chairman's long-lost eldest grandson was born to be a leader, adapting faster than most to the cruelty of the family business at such a young age. He seemed naturally devoid of emotions, making him the perfect successor.

Unexpectedly, it wasn't that he lacked emotions.

But rather, he reserved them for just one person.

"Uh-oh."

Li Jun got into the car, suddenly remembering Shi Yu's injuries.

He turned around from the driver's seat, "Young Master, your wound..."

In the backseat, Shi Yu gave him a cold glance, silencing Li Jun instantly.

Only then did he notice that the girl in their young master's arms seemed to be sobbing softly.

The young girl appeared to be crying very sadly.

Her hands clutched the young master's custom-tailored suit, smearing tears all over it, as if she were still trying to break up with him.

Li Jun: Well...

It's none of my business; they're having a lovers' quarrel. Seeing how upset the young master is, I should just keep quiet.

Li Jun dared not speak again, even slowing down the car to ensure a smoother ride, avoiding any bumps that might disturb the girl.

Behind the black Rolls-Royce, four black SUVs followed, driving from the side road onto the main road, merging into the long stream of traffic.

"Why won't you break up with me?"

Lin Yao felt a wave of sadness, tugging at Shi Yu's suit collar and asking.

"I want to break up with you, why can't I..."

She was drunk, her mind a blur.

But she hadn't forgotten how Shi Yu had treated her, ignoring her for two months. Why... why was he showing up now?

The young girl had completely forgotten about slapping Shi Yu earlier.

She was drunk and dizzy, only remembering that she wanted to break up, leave Shi Yu, and cut ties with him.

And then... then she would be alone, living well without him...

Thinking this, her tears fell harder.

Her head hurt even more.

"Baby."

Suddenly, Shi Yu sighed.

He pulled the girl closer to him.

Resting her against his legs.

Then, in a low and hoarse voice, he whispered in her ear.

"If you mention breaking up again, I might not be able to control myself and bully you right here."
