CHAPTER 458
Even though it looked like Fu Bolin fell on his own due to his lack of strength, everyone knew otherwise.
It was the man who they thought had let things go that threw a punch at the bleeding party.
"That's what you get for even trying to harass my wife," Li Fengjin said before he took Bai Renxiang's hand and left the hallway.
Everyone was still dumbfounded by what just happened. They could only watch as the couple left the scene of the fight like nothing just happened a while ago.
After what seemed like forever, someone spoke up.
"How much rage does he have in him?" Yang Wenkai asked as he was the first to come back from his shock.
"I think it has multiplied by a zillion fold since the kidnapping," Wang Tingxiao answered.
"Sigh... Well, it is too bad for this guy who got to taste that rage firsthand," Yang Chen glanced down at the man lying unconsciously on the floor.
"I'll do and get some staff to take him to the hospital and contact his family," Wang Tingxiao volunteered before leaving.
"Quick question though... What kidnapping is Tingxiao talking about? Was Fengjin kidnapped?" Yang Wenkai asked with surprised brows.
"Who would dare kidnap the only son of the Li Empire?" Yang Chen answered his brother's question with a question of his own.
"Then who–"
"Renxiang was the one who was kidnapped," Ye Chaoxiang cut in.
"What? They kidnapped her knowing that she is...?"
"No. They were not in a relationship then... They were more like business partners.," Yang Chen answered.
"Oh!" Yang Wenkai nodded. "Why was I not told about this?"
"It's his choice. It was a traumatic experience for both of them, especially Renxiang."
"You mean they...?" Yang Wenkai could not bring himself to say the next word.
"Almost because we arrived on time. But thank God that Renxiang recovered quickly from it. But she has not said a word about it though. Not even to Fengjin."
As Ye Chaoxiang finished talking, two make staff came and took Fu Bolin with them. Wang Tingxiao also came back and as there was nothing left for them to do, the four of them went back to that event hall.
~Beside the event hall~
Li Fengjin and Bai Renxiang had stopped a few steps before the entrance of the hall. He was now hugging her to help her shaking stop and for her to calm down.
"Are you alright?" Li Fengjin asked after a long while of silence between them.
"N-No," Bai Renxiang shook her head.
"No? Did that b*st*rd touch you anywhere before I came? Was I too late?"
"No... You weren't. I just... You almost killed someone, Jin," Bai Renxiang raised her head from his chest to look at him.
Her eyes, nose and cheeks were slightly red.
"Why didn't you stop? Why didn't you answer me when I called your name?... I was scared that –"
"Ssh. I'm sorry. I didn't mean to scare you or... Sigh. I'm sorry for letting you see me like that... Like some enraged monster," he apologised.
"You're not a monster. Don't call yourself a monster," she refuted his words.
"But you were scared of me. You were–"
"I wasn't scared of you," it was her who cut him short this time. "I was just scared that I'll lose you because you were losing yourself to anger... What happened to your calm self?"
"I'm sorry. I–"
She shut him up with a finger on his lip. Then she shook her head and let a soft assuring smile form on her lips.
"No need to apologise. You saved me with a lot of punches but... But you're not a monster. Don't call my hubby that. It's unacceptable."
Li Fengjin was now the time to get dumbfounded. After a while, ge joined their foreheads and caressed her cheek with one hand as the other was still on her waist.
"How can you say something cheesy at a time like this?" He asked in a low tone.
"It's our wedding, Jin. We're the only ones who have the full right to be cheesy whenever we want," she said.
"Is that so?"
Her hands moved from his waist up his chest to his neck before she closed her eyes.
"Yes. Also, I don't want the mood to be ruined. Our wedding started well so I don't see why it shouldn't end well."
"You're right. That scumbag should not spoil our day," he agreed with her.
Pulling away with a little distance between them Li Fengjin kissed her forehead. "I came early but I should have been there from the start."
"I'm alright and that is what matters. Thank you for saving me."
"Hmm."
"I love you, hubby."
"I love you more, wifey," he said before pecking her lips. "Let's go inside."
As they got closer to everyone fitted in the hall, gasps erupted. Mrs Li stood up and quickly rushed to the couple.
"What happened to you two? Why is your hand covered in blood?" She questioned worriedly.
"It's nothing serious, sweetheart," Li Fengjin nonchalantly said.
"Nothing serious? Then why the blood?" Mr Li frowned.
"I just exercised my fist, that's all."
"What? You got into a fight on your wedding day?" Mrs Li could not believe this son of hers.
"Mum, just drop it. I don't want my mood to get bad. So can we just save it for later?... Please," he sighed when he realized he just raised his voice at his mother.
"Momma, Jin is fine. Don't worry," Bai Renxiang coaxed her mother-in-law after Li Fengjin excused himself to get his hands cleaned.
"Honey, are you sure? Tell momma what happened, hmm?" Mrs Li held her hands in hers.
"Sigh... I was almost harassed but Jin came in just in time and he beat up the guy," she let her answer be as brief as possible.
"And who's this guy?" Old man Jiang asked.
"Grandpa, Jin already did much. There's–"
"Answer my question."
"It was Fu Bolin."
