Suddenly, he rushed forward, raised his hand sharply, and slapped Jiang Xue's face viciously.
Jiang Xue was caught off guard and stumbled towards the nearby counter.
The clerks were all terrified and quickly dodged.
Liang Shaochen obviously didn't expect Nangong Zhongli to act so quickly. As Nangong Zhongli rushed up to hit again, Liang Shaochen caught her with one hand and shoved her away forcefully.
Xia Xiaonuan stepped forward to steady the staggering Nangong Zhongli, preventing her from falling.
Liang Shaochen helped Jiang Xue up, his brows furrowing with pain and pity: "Xue'er, are you okay?"
Jiang Xue covered her face and looked tearfully at Shaochen: "Shaochen, I'm fine... It's all my fault, I shouldn't have come before you..."
Liang Shaochen trembled all over: "Qiqi, don't say that!"
He turned around and yelled at Nangong Zhongli: "Nangong Zhongli, are you crazy?!"
