He pursed his lower lips, his face paled as he released his grip on the gun and it fell onto the floor.

Jing Yu took him out of the office immediately.

The remaining three people blew a raspberry at the scene.

Tang Yan adjusted his gold-rimmed glasses and commented coldly, “Is he showing pity and tenderness to the woman?”

Lu Niange burst into laughter. “Second Brother, you must be kidding. Our third brother does not show pity and tenderness toward women. I guess, he didn’t even know how to write these few words.”

Qin Muchen directed his cold gaze at them.

Lu Niange felt as if he was choking, He tried hard to stifle his laughter and he felt pain in his stomach.

Bai Hengjin patted him on his shoulder helplessly. “Your brother has an insatiable desire. Ignore him.”

Qin Muchen cast a cold glance at him. “Aren’t you leaving?”

The three of them grinned and left with flagging interest.

Lu Niange was still reeling in shock on the way out. “No matter how I think about it, third brother seemed to be dating Gu Shinian?”

“Look at how he protects her.”

“Impossible,” Tang Yan begged to differ. “This would only happen if he has gone crazy.”

Bai Hengjin seemed to be lost in his thoughts on the way out. There was a perturbed look on his handsome features. He curled his lips and said meaningfully, “Perhaps, he had really gone crazy.”

…

In the office, the doctor attended to the wounds on Gu Shinian’s cheek carefully.

Perhaps the doctor had exerted too much force, Qin Muchen turned sullen when he noticed the slight frown on Gu Shinian’s face.

He flew into a rage. “Leave if you can’t do it properly!”

The doctor was frightened and exerted too much force with the disinfecting cotton bud.

“Ah!”

Gu Shinian gave a small shout.

Qin Muchen stood up from the sofa by the side and glared at the doctor. “Get out!”

The doctor scrambled to get the medicine box and left the room as soon as possible.

No one was able to take their time if someone was giving them the death stare.

He was not strong enough mentally!

Gu Shinian had tender skin. One side of her face had become swollen after the slap. There were red and yellow blotches on her face, she looked like a color palette.

Qin Muchen sat opposite to her, staring at the subdued look on her face and he could not help but feel his anger rising. “Who allowed you to come here?”

Didn’t she know that many people were waiting to kill her?

He took a glance at her swollen face and he posed her a question, his voice dripping with acid. “Seeing that someone is going to slap you, don’t you know how to dodge?”

He could not help it that she was being bullied at the film set. However, this was his office and it was his territory, yet she was being bullied!

Since when was Gu Shinian such a weak and frail woman?!

Gu Shinian continued to look down at the floor. She pinched her fingers, twisting them around.

Seeing that she remained silent, Qin Muchen could not help but get riled up. “Gu Shinian, say something!”

Seeing that he was walking toward her, Gu Shinian tensed up. She quickly moved to the corner of the sofa.

“Why did you run from me?”

Qin Muchen trapped her on the sofa by propping both of his hands on the sofa.

Gu Shinian had no way to retreat. She dared not lift her head under his aggressive stare, her eyes darted around. “…You won’t do anything to that man, right?”

Qin Muchen frowned, using a mocking tone on her. “Uncle Fang has been working under me for nearly seven years. Do you think I will do anything to him just because of you?”

Although he really wished to fire a gun at him!

Gu Shinian heaved a sigh of relief upon hearing his words.

“Is that so? That’s good.”

That’s good? How is it good?

Qin Muchen was baffled. There was a look of doubt in his dark eyes.

Gu Shinian pretended to be casual about it. “It is not worthwhile to do so for someone like me.”
