C28 Just Now You Were Worried about Me!

Shen Geyao now truly understood what it meant to be terrified. Being under Liang Chenyu was uncomfortable, but it wasn't the worst. Now, with a sleazy, ugly stranger pinning her down, she felt the full weight of despair. When his hand touched her skin, her stomach churned, and she almost vomited. How did she end up in this situation? Wasn't this supposed to be a reputable club? How could something so horrifying happen here?

"Mmmph," Shen Geyao tried to struggle, but with so many men around her, she had no chance. Her feeble resistance only seemed to excite them more, their eyes gleaming with a predatory glint. The more she resisted, the more enticing she seemed to them. The thrill of so many men toying with one woman was disturbingly novel and exhilarating to them.

Shen Geyao was on the brink of despair, tears silently streaming down her face as she watched the man undress. If she had known, she wouldn't have stubbornly left the private room. She had no idea she would encounter such terrifying people outside.

This was Shen Geyao's first time in a nightclub, and she realized just how frightening a place it could be. Liang Chenyu had been overbearing earlier, but compared to these brutes, he seemed almost gentlemanly.

At least, he hadn't done anything too excessive to her in front of others. But now...

"Mmph, mmph."

No, don't touch her! Don't!

It was as if Liang Chenyu heard her silent plea. Suddenly, with a loud bang, the door to the room was kicked open from the outside.

It really flew open!

With just a casual kick, the heavy, expertly crafted door, which must have cost a fortune, was sent flying. It crashed with a thud onto the coffee table not far away!

Everyone in the room was stunned for half a second, and then cries of shock filled the air.

No one saw him make a move; they had no idea how he did it!

The man pinning Shen Geyao down let out a howl before he was flung away, hitting the wall with a smack. Then, with another thud, he fell to the floor.

His mouth opened, and he spat out blood, unable to muster the strength to get up.

Before anyone could react, the girl who had been held on the couch by several people was suddenly in someone else's arms.

With a flick of his wrist, a jacket landed on Shen Geyao, covering her disheveled clothes completely.

The man's cold, piercing gaze was filled with menace. With just a glance, the temperature in the room seemed to drop several degrees.

It was cold, so cold that everyone was shivering!

He stood there like a king, commanding a silent reverence from those around him, as if they were his subjects. Such a presence was rare, almost unseen for centuries.

Finally, among the frightened men, someone snapped out of it: "He's only got one person with him!"

Just one person, while there were five or six of them, right? Clearly, they had the advantage, so why were they still so afraid?

Even if he had come alone, without anyone by his side, just standing there would exert an overwhelming pressure.

It made their hearts pound with fear!

"Bro, don't be scared, let's get him!" one man stammered, his hands shaking so much he could barely hold onto the bottle.

Yet, he still smashed the bottle with a loud crack, brandishing the jagged edge as he charged at Chenyu.

"Watch out." Shen Geyao, weak and exhausted, collapsed into Chenyu's arms.

But she saw clearly the man rushing forward with the broken bottle! The sharp edge could easily cause a nasty wound.

She didn't want to see him get hurt.

A cry of pain echoed again, this time from the man with the broken bottle.

Chen Xuan suddenly appeared in front of Liang Chenyu and Shen Geyao, and in the next moment, chaos erupted in the room. In just a few seconds, five men were on the ground, groaning in pain. Shen Geyao had never seen such impressive skills before. Chen Xuan—that name was now etched in her memory. He was someone not to be messed with.

But the person she should really avoid was the man holding her now, Liang Chenyu. He was ten times more intimidating than Chen Xuan! Yet, why was it that in her moment of despair, she thought of him? Why did she feel a sense of security when she found herself in his arms?

“Were you worried about me just now?” Liang Chenyu asked, looking down at the girl whose flushed face clearly showed she was quite drunk, a smirk playing on his lips.

“No,” Shen Geyao quickly closed her eyes, refusing to look at him. His smile was more intoxicating than any drink—once you got a taste, you couldn't quit!

“Heh, you little liar,” he chuckled softly, holding her close as he turned toward the man who had fallen first. Shen Geyao recognized him as the one who had brought her in and tried to tear her dress off earlier. Seeing him now, she instinctively burrowed deeper into Liang Chenyu's embrace.

Liang Chenyu was quite pleased with her small gesture of seeking his protection when she was scared.

"Which hand did that guy use to touch you just now?" he asked casually. But those who knew him well could sense the deadly intent behind his words.

Shen Geyao didn't want to recall the scene from earlier. Just thinking about it made her feel sick.

"Not saying anything? Does that mean he used both hands?"

She remained silent, but when she saw the man coughing up blood, she instinctively leaned toward Liang Chenyu. She didn't know why, but even though she was afraid of this tyrant-like man, in moments like these, when she was scared, being in his arms gave her a real sense of security. It was this sense of safety that made her inexplicably crave the warmth of his embrace.

Liang Chenyu held her close and walked up to the man. Shen Geyao didn't know what he intended to do and sneaked a glance. What she saw nearly made her faint.

A scream of agony and the sound of bones being crushed echoed simultaneously.

Liang Chenyu stomped on the man's left hand, completely shattering the bones in his fingers. He lifted his foot again, and before Shen Geyao could turn away, it came down on the man's right hand.

The blood-curdling scream filled the entire room.

The men who were sprawled on the floor, unable to get up, were all grateful at that moment. Grateful that they weren't the ones who had been on top of the girl earlier.

The man standing before them exuded an aura of authority, almost like a king. He was terrifying—truly terrifying! How did they end up encountering someone so frightening? They decided never to return to this nightclub again, and they would steer clear of any lone girls in the future. Never again!

Shen Geyao's legs finally gave out, and she was about to collapse. Liang Chenyu swiftly scooped her up in his arms and strode out of the private room.
