A trickle of blood spilled from the corner of Gu Feng's mouth. The slap had sent the promising young cosmetics owner's head snapping to the side, nearly toppling him and his chair to the ground.
HISS! Gu Feng sucked in a sharp breath. The slap was excruciating, sending tremors through his entire body. At the same time, it shattered his previous composure and confidence. He truly hadn't expected the man beside Su Xiyang to be so direct and brutal. He had already apologized, yet the man still struck him without mercy.
"My apologies," Gu Feng muttered, wiping the blood from the corner of his mouth. Given Shen Fanyun's sheer influence, he knew he couldn't afford to provoke him. This time, he had no choice but to accept his defeat.
Shen Fanyun reminded him with a smile that didn't reach his eyes, "Next time you see me, walk the other way. Understood?"
Gu Feng nodded, committing the warning to memory.
