"You think I’m just going to scram because you say so? Then I’d lose too much face!" Lu Zichen was furiously humiliated and rushed over to punch him.
"It seems you prefer punishment over a polite offer," Li Zijue’s eyes flashed coldly. After setting Tong Mo down on a nearby chair, he rolled up his suit sleeves and assumed a fighting stance.
A mere kid daring to fight him, he really overestimated himself!
"Sorry, I don’t play by those rules."
Lu Zichen yelled as his fist headed straight for Li Zijue’s handsome face.
The fist tore through the air, and it was about to land on Li Zijue’s face.
However, in the blink of an eye, Li Zijue’s well-defined hand firmly grasped his, and swiftly subdued him with a martial arts hold.
Lu Zichen hadn’t expected the man to be so strong; his old face instantly blushed to the roots of his ears.
How utterly humiliating!
"Kid, Tong Mo is not someone you can touch. If you know what’s good for you, stay away from her. Otherwise, next time won’t be just a simple hold," Li Zijue warned coldly with a slight tilt of his chin, then went to embrace Tong Mo.
"Hey! Stop right there!" Lu Zichen saw Tong Mo was about to be taken away by this strange and perverted older man, and disregarding the pain in his body, he hurriedly chased after them.
As he ran, he pointed at Li Zijue and shouted loudly to the scattered passersby, "Help, over here! There’s a perverted uncle kidnapping a girl in broad daylight!"
"Help, everyone come and beat up this perverted uncle!"
A few passersby, upon hearing this, quickly rushed over.
"Quick! The perverted uncle is about to force my classmate into his car! Save her!" Lu Zichen pointed at Li Zijue and cried out again.
Onlookers saw an old man indeed about to put a high-school-looking girl into a car, and immediately got angry, "That’s despicable!"
"In a society governed by law, and yet there are still such arrogant people!"
"Come on! Let’s take him to the police station!"
The righteously indignant passersby charged towards Li Zijue.
Just as Li Zijue was about to push Tong Mo into his car, his wrist was unexpectedly seized.
"What are you doing?"
Li Zijue turned unhappily to look at the man he didn’t recognize.
The angry man glared at him, "You ask me what I’m doing? I haven’t even asked you what you’re doing. You look decent enough, how can you do such a thing as street kidnapping?!"
"Exactly! This man is a stereotypical scum!"
"A scourge on society! Let go of the girl and come with us to the police station and turn yourself in!"
Listening to these baseless charges, Li Zijue’s dark eyes quickly swept over the crowd and locked on Lu Zichen, instantly understanding that he must be involved in this setup.
He couldn’t help but sneer, glancing around at the crowd, "You’d better be careful with what you say, or I might sue you for defamation."
"As for her..." Li Zijue looked down at the girl who was drowsy in his arms, his expression suddenly softened, saying, "She is my friend."
To be precise, she was his fiancée!
Hearing this word, the passersby were taken aback, glanced at him, then at Lu Zichen, completely unsure who was lying.
Lu Zichen, hearing him say this, was also stunned for a moment, but he quickly denied it, "Don’t believe a word this pervert says. Tong Mo has no such friend, or she would have told me about it."
