“That’s fake... right?” Shi Guang asked gently.

“That’s fake. It’s just a rumor. Chief Lu did have the person beaten up rather terribly, but the person did not die. And besides, that person was the one who did something wrong, and his eventual outcome was life imprisonment in jail.”

Shi Guang held Lu Yanchen’s hand and locked fingers with him. “Even if you stood as a witness back then and he felt that you let him down because you guys were friends, hadn’t he nearly killed you? Haven’t you let him off then as well? In theory, shouldn’t that even things out? Now that he’s trying to set you up as such, if you were to let him off again, he’s definitely not going to appreciate it, and there’ll definitely be a next time as well.”

Lu Yanchen hugged her by the shoulder and brought her into his embrace.

Back then, they were good friends. When he gave the statement, he too did not feel good, wondering if he had made the right choice in doing so.

He felt guilty, as though he had let down Shi Ze... until Shi Ze pushed him into the waters.

His parents thought that his coldness and aloofness was a residual effect from the trauma, but it wasn’t—he had merely grown up overnight.

He did not wish to let Shi Ze off, but he knew as well that the latter was not the evil type of person. If he were to push Shi Ze to the edge, the latter might get desperate.

That had Lu Yanchen thinking of letting Shi Ze off. After all, he was unsure whether Shi Ze would strike at Shi Guang if he were utterly desperate. The very thought of that possibility happening had Lu Yanchen feeling uneasy.

Besides, his mother had reminded him not to go too extreme. At the end of the day, this was his auntie’s son.

...

For the past two days, Lu Yanchen’s affair could not even find its way into Shi Ze’s mind—he was plagued with the affairs of his company.

By the time he got out of his office today, it was already 12 midnight.

From the corner of the darkness, a tall and sturdy shadow walked out.

“Who’s there?” Shi Ze shouted out warily as he saw the person walk forth steadily and calmly, yet carrying a graceful elegance while staring at him with cold eyes.

Freezing for a moment, Shi Ze roared out, “Lu Yanchen!”

Shi Ze, the boss that everyone knew to be calm and cool, was now behaving like a feral lion. In comparison, Lu Yanchen was much calmer as he eyed Shi Ze indifferently. Even though he was clearly the one who came seeking Shi Ze, he was the one looking down at the latter as well.

“Don’t tell me that you’ve been standing here waiting for me!” Shi Ze gritted his teeth and laughed icily.

“Do you think I wish to?” Lu Yanchen smirked in a fake way. “Are you still a kid? How old are you already, and yet, you’re getting your mummy to clean your backside after you create a mess?”

Those words were filled with ironic mockery.

Shi Ze’s face turned even darker instantly. Besides, what he hated the most was for his mother to go seeking the Lus for mercy.

Instantly, he could no longer contain his emotions as he lunged at Lu Yanchen with his fists raised and a look of wrath. Lu Yanchen’s eyes flickered sharply and with a swift dodge, he sidestepped the punch and even retaliated with one of his own!

Unable to hit Lu Yanchen and eating a punch in return, Shi Ze could not help but yelp out at the sudden influx of pain.

He touched his lips with his fingers—to think that there would be blood!

Now, he was thoroughly maniacal as he snarled and panted heavily, glaring at Lu Yanchen with bloodshot eyes. Spotting a road sign beside him, he scooped it up and swung it at the other...
