Chapter 153
Gao Tianqi wanted revenge on Chenyang, but he hated An Xiaoqing even more.
After all, if An Xiaoqing hadn’t taken the initiative, Chenyang couldn’t possibly have cuckolded him, no matter how hard he had tried.
To put it bluntly, Chenyang was just a pawn in their conflict!
That was why, when Gao Tianqi had raised the vase at Chenyang moments ago, he had only intended to teach him a lesson and display his dominance in front of An Xiaoqing!
Back then, he had only wanted to make Chenyang shed a little blood and pay a small price.
But his plans changed the moment he saw An Xiaoqing shielding Chenyang so fiercely.
He knew An Xiaoqing.
If Chenyang were just a pawn, An Xiaoqing wouldn’t have cared so much.
Yet now, not only did she care deeply, she was protecting him as if he were some precious treasure.
To Gao Tianqi, her husband, this act was more than just a heavy blow—it was a profound humiliation and a bitter irony!
The inferno of rage blazing in his heart made him want to exact brutal revenge on An Xiaoqing!
Even more, he wanted to make Chenyang pay a truly terrible price!
And Chenyang had to pay that price right in front of An Xiaoqing!
Only then could Gao Tianqi reclaim his dignity and show An Xiaoqing the dire consequences of protecting a toy boy!
As he gathered his strength and raised the vase, Gao Tianqi was consumed by a monstrous rage.
His expression twisted into a terrifying snarl.
"Kid, you’d better learn to watch your step. There are people you can touch, and people you can’t! People you don’t even have the right to touch!"
"Now, pay the price for your stupidity!"
The words had barely left his mouth when he brought the raised vase smashing down viciously toward Chenyang’s head.
At the sight of this, the color drained from An Xiaoqing’s face.
It was true that Gao Tianqi was a pushover.
But no matter how much of a weakling he was, he was still a full-grown man!
Chenyang had a similar build, and in a fair fight, his youth might have given him an edge.
But now, Gao Tianqi was in a blind rage, and he was armed with a vase.
As for Chenyang, he had just been through an exhausting battle. His stamina was likely depleted, and he was completely unarmed. He was in no state to do anything but take a beating.
An Xiaoqing knew better than anyone how sturdy that vase was.
If it came down on Chenyang’s head with full force, it wouldn’t just be a matter of a cracked skull and some blood. He could very well be crippled, or even killed!
At this thought, An Xiaoqing cried out, struggling to her feet to intervene.
"Gao Tianqi, stop! Right now!"
"He’s innocent! Come after me if you want!"
"You bastard, stop! You’re going to kill him!"
"I *want* to kill him!"
Roaring, Gao Tianqi kicked An Xiaoqing to the ground again.
Meanwhile, the descending vase was less than twenty centimeters from Chenyang’s head!
An Xiaoqing panicked. She was terrified.
She knew it was too late.
Her body trembled with hatred for Gao Tianqi.
Meanwhile, the guilt she felt toward Chenyang made her unable to watch what was about to happen.
The instant she squeezed her eyes shut, the sound of the vase shattering abruptly rang out.
CRASH!!
The sharp, cracking sound was like a thunderclap next to her ear, draining all the color from her face and making her heart plummet.
’It’s over!’
’It’s really over now!’
"Gao Tianqi, you brazenly harmed an innocent person right in front of me! Aren’t you afraid I’ll divorce you? Aren’t you afraid I’ll make sure you never become vice director?!"
"You bastard! If anything happens to him today, I swear I’ll make you pay!"
An Xiaoqing kept her eyes shut, cursing him relentlessly.
She braced herself for Gao Tianqi’s gloating.
She was also determined to have a complete and final falling out with him.
But... seconds, then tens of seconds passed, and still Gao Tianqi didn’t respond at all.
She couldn’t help but find this strange.
’Knowing Gao Tianqi’s personality, after getting his revenge on Chenyang, he would definitely gloat and show off how tough he was!’
’But now... forget gloating, why wasn’t there any sound at all?’
’Could it be... Gao Tianqi had accidentally killed Chenyang and was now frozen in shock?!’
