Chapter 163 - 66: Guo Yao Gets Beaten, Sworn Enemies (Part 2)

He casually picked up the cake, unwrapped it, and handed her a fork. "Eat some cake first."

The palm-sized cake was small and exquisite, looking almost too good to eat.

Unfortunately, her stomach wouldn’t let her.

After several bites in a row, with the cake nearly gone, Jiang Li belatedly realized that Shen Yanzhi hadn’t had a single bite. She quickly speared a piece with her fork and held it to his lips. "You have a bite, too."

Shen Yanzhi’s gaze lingered on Jiang Li as he opened his mouth and bit down on the fork.

’It was as if he wasn’t eating cake.’

Jiang Li swallowed hard, feeling her whole body flush with heat. She immediately turned her face away and fanned herself with her hand.

’Help me. Shen Yanzhi is being a flirt without even knowing it.’

’He shouldn’t be in investing; he should be in showbiz, as a male siren.’

Seeing this, Shen Yanzhi’s lips curved into a smile, the amusement in his eyes nearly overflowing.

’Looks like I’m not so unattractive to Jiang Li after all. She’s even getting flustered.’

’No wonder Lu Zhi’an said that if you want to win a woman’s heart, you first have to learn how to seduce her.’

Since it was a group of people ganging up on one person—Guo Yao—in a shopping mall, several security guards immediately rushed over to maintain order.

After trying and failing to pull them apart, they gave up and just shouted at the top of their lungs, "Stop! If you don’t stop right now, we’re taking all of you to the police station!"

The moment they heard "police station," everyone immediately stopped.

When the crowd dispersed, Jiang Li saw Guo Yao’s face, swollen like a pig’s head, and her tattered clothes, and she couldn’t help but let out a PFFT of laughter.

She had to admit, those people had been absolutely ruthless.

’I even wonder if they would’ve beaten Guo Yao to death if security hadn’t shown up.’

Hearing Jiang Li’s laughter, Guo Yao whipped her head around and shot her a hateful glare.

’If it weren’t for that bitch Jiang Li, my family wouldn’t be bankrupt, and I wouldn’t have been beaten into this state!’

Because her eyes were swollen, her vision was obstructed, and she didn’t see Shen Yanzhi next to Jiang Li.

If she had seen him, she probably would have wished for the ground to swallow her whole.

’To appear before her crush looking like a complete wreck... what woman could possibly stand that?’

Meeting Guo Yao’s gaze, Jiang Li raised an eyebrow.

’To think, after being beaten to a pulp by those people, she doesn’t hate them. She hates me—the one who didn’t even lift a finger.’

’Some people are just beyond reason.’

’Still, Guo Yao is a girl. With so many people around, if someone recorded this and posted it online, she’d likely be too ashamed to ever show her face in public again.’

She crossed her legs. "You’ve beaten her, you’ve cursed her. She doesn’t owe you anything anymore. Shouldn’t you be going now?"

If at first the crowd was full of contempt for Jiang Li, now, after witnessing her bankrupt the Guo Family with a single phone call, they were naturally respectful.

"Okay, we’ll leave right now."

If we don’t leave, our own families might be the next to go bankrupt.

Besides, this Miss Bankruptcy doesn’t seem to have much patience.

Jiang Li, unaware that she had already earned the title of "Miss Bankruptcy," saw the crowd fleeing like startled birds and called out, "Take off a jacket and put it on her first."

One of the men took off his down jacket and draped it over Guo Yao, then bolted.

He was afraid that if he ran too slowly, his own family would go bankrupt.

But Guo Yao defiantly threw the down jacket on the ground and said viciously, "I don’t need your charity!"

Jiang Li shrugged. "Suit yourself."

’I tried to help her save face. It’s not my fault if she won’t take it.’

Just then, the PA system announced their number. Shen Yanzhi helped Jiang Li to her feet, and the two of them walked into the barbecue restaurant.

Watching Shen Yanzhi’s back, Guo Yao felt a pang of suspicion. She then shook her head and muttered to herself, "Impossible. How could Yan Zhi be with her!"

The security guards looked at Guo Yao, at a loss. One of them draped the down jacket over her again. "Ma’am, why don’t you leave for now?"

Guo Yao endured the pain in her body and asked irritably, "What, are you afraid I can’t afford a meal?"

’Even if my family’s bankrupt, I can still afford a single meal.’

’Besides, I still have tens of thousands of yuan in my WeChat.’

’I’d like to see just who Jiang Li is with.’

She struggled to get up, but her body felt as if it were being pricked by needles, the pain excruciating.

Looking toward the barbecue restaurant, she gritted her teeth and said hatefully, "Jiang Li, you bitch! If it weren’t for you, I wouldn’t have been humiliated like this. For the humiliation I suffered today, I’ll make you pay it back a thousand, ten thousand times over!"

Paired with her face, which was swollen like a pig’s head, the sight was rather unsettling.
