Lacking green in his five elements...

How did you even come up with that idea?

Even Yang Jingyue who was heartbroken because of Ling Hao grinned sheepishly in spite of herself.

However, Ling Hao was not impressed.

As a man, the only thing he feared more than death was wearing the proverbial green hat of a cuckold.

Gu Nanyu’s blatant and ill-meaning statement had Ling Hao raging mad.

Ling Hao was a full-grown 20-year-old man, three years older than Gu Nanyu.

While Gu Nanyu stood taller than most women, she was disadvantaged when compared to a tall man.

Ling Hao was a little taller than Gu Nanyu. He charged forward in rage and Yang Jingyue braced herself to interpose without thinking.

After all, Gu Nanyu was standing up for her.

However, Gu Nanyu pushed her out of the way the moment she made a move.

When Ling Hao came close, Gu Nanyu grabbed his wrist and pulled him off balance with her right hand, before pressuring his shoulder with her left. A swift kick behind Ling Hao’s knee sent him kneeling in front of Yang Jingyue with a loud thump.

It was all over in the blink of an eye. Fu Beichen took a step forward instinctively when Ling Hao was charging toward Gu Nanyu.

To his surprise, she had subdued Ling Hao with a series of practiced and fluid moves before he could pull her over.

Fu Beichen withdrew his extended hand slowly.

Jiang Yishan who was watching from the sideline was in awe. Slick moves!

His moves were similar to the minister!

The minister’s martial art moves were fierce and powerful like a ferocious mountain tiger.

In contrast, the movements of the young man in front of him were smooth and natural, which was a feast for the eyes.

Fu Beichen could not help but narrowed his eyes when his gaze fell on Gu Nanyu.

On the other hand, Gu Nanyu was looking at Ling Hao who was on his knees in front of Yang Jingyue with glee.

Then, her stomach dropped.

That particular move...

She had learned this move from Fu Beichen… However, it was in her previous life.

Then, Gu Nanyu remembered her reincarnation and was instantly relieved. She would just pretend it was all just a coincidence.

“Let go of me, jerk!” shouted Ling Hao loudly while looking around. It was fortunate for him that no one was taking pictures. He could not afford the loss of reputation at such an early stage in his career.

“Sure, apologize to Yueyue. Then, say ‘Ling Hao is a jerk among scumbags, a scumbag among jerks’ out loud three times,” said Gu Nanyu coldly.

Ling Hao almost exploded in anger upon hearing her words!

“In your dreams!” yelled Ling Hao as he struggled to get up, but Gu Nanyu had him pinned down tight.

Gu Nanyu sneered.

Getting up so soon?

Do you think it’s going to be easy to break out from this hold?

I have lost count of the number of times that weirdo Fu had pinned me down with this move. Do you think you can do any better?

“Do as you please. Yueyue, call the police. Have them charge Ling Hao for physical assault, we’ll leave it to the police,” said Gu Nanyu.

Yi Mengying interjected with displeasure upon hearing that.

“You are the one who has him subdued and not the other way round!”

“He started it. I was just defending myself. Look, there is a surveillance camera right above you. The policemen are not blind, they can judge for themselves,” warned Gu Nanyu as she nudged her chin to indicate the direction of the camera.

Yi Mengying stomped her foot in annoyance but could not think of a way out.

Ling Hao panicked at the thought of being taken to the police station.

It would be absolutely negative publicity if the police were involved.

His filming career had just started. A scandal involving the police would be extremely prejudicial to him.

Furthermore, his bad break-up with Yang Jingyue would also be exposed to the press!
