Hearing that voice, Xicheng's movements hesitated for a split second. The punch, delivered with full force, lost some of its strength and speed, and coupled with Mu Tianye's evasion, it didn't strike him but grazed past the man's cheek instead.
The ring on Xicheng's thumb brushed past Mu Tianye's ear, cutting a small gash from which beads of blood immediately splattered out.
High heels clicked against the marble floor as a slender figure rushed over and timely supported Mu Tianye's arm.
"Are you okay?" The girl's voice sounded a bit hoarse from nervousness. Her eyes, usually calm and unruffled, were now filled with anxiety and concern. Seeing the cut on his ear, Gai Yu frowned with pity, "You're bleeding, let me help you…"
She had only just taken her hand away from Mu Tianye's arm when the other hand she used to support him was brushed off by him.
"We'll settle this another day!"
