Chapter 320 - 319: The Decision (13)
The woman’s dress was luxurious and her makeup was exquisite, but the face that had been carefully made up was now contorted with hatred. She held a bottle of something in her hand and charged towards Ji Xinxin while angrily shouting, "Slut, shameless mistress, seducing my husband with your face. I will destroy you, I will destroy you! Taste the sulfuric acid."
While shouting, she sprinted towards Ji Xinxin at high speed and forcefully splashed the contents of the bottle onto Ji Xinxin’s face.
Because everything happened so suddenly and quickly, no one had time to react before the liquid spilled out of the bottle.
Ling Chuxia was standing very close to Ji Xinxin, so much of the liquid also splashed towards her.
She had no time to react and just stood there dumbfounded, seeing the liquid about to splash onto her body, she reflexively closed her eyes, a trace of fear flashing through her mind. However, the next second, the liquid did not splash onto her, but a strong arm rapidly wrapped around her and pulled her tightly into an embrace. She felt herself being firmly pressed against a warm chest, and then panicked shouts filled the air around them.
"Oh my God, sulfuric acid! Is that sulfuric acid?"
"Ah—"
Some people were shocked, some screamed, others were terrified, mixed with the shrill laughter of the woman, and the entire banquet hall instantly erupted into chaos.
Ling Chuxia’s mind went blank. She numbly looked up to see Shi Che’s handsome face, tense, with a slight furrow between his brows and his lips tightly pursed, yet his arms tightly held her, his whole body shielding her.
The liquid that was supposed to splash on her did not reach her at all, but it all splashed onto Shi Che.
