Chapter 8: Chapter 8 Can Money Buy a Wife? _1
"He's your husband?" Chen Guanjie was so startled he almost fell to the ground. Pointing at Chen Hao, he yelled at Li Bingshuang, "Bingshuang, what's going on? How could he be your husband? Look at him, a lousy designated driver, when did he become your husband? Tell me this isn't true, and it can't be true, right?"
As soon as he heard the other party cursing, Chen Hao was immediately displeased. He strode forward and looked down at him, saying, "Listen here, you queen, I'm a driver, not some lousy designated driver!"
While speaking, he also provocatively wrapped his arm around Li Bingshuang's waist and said smugly, "Queen, I'm telling you now, Bingshuang is my wife, forever and always. Don't let me see you harassing her again! Also, Bingshuang isn't a name you're allowed to use; only her husband, me, has that right. If you dare to call her that again, watch out, I'll beat you until you're spitting out teeth!"
Finished speaking, Chen Hao twisted his face, pulling Li Bingshuang into his arms and said tenderly to her, "My dear Bingshuang, I'm right, aren't I? You're going to be my good wife forever."
At that moment, Li Bingshuang knew she had swallowed a bitter pill in silence, but had no choice other than to cooperate fully, lifting her charming face and snuggling into his chest, she whispered to Chen Hao, "I know, hubby, I'm your good wife, always will be."
"Haha, that's more like it," Chen Hao laughed joyfully, then challenged Chen Guanjie provocatively, "You heard that, queen? Keep harassing her, and I'll make you unrecognizable, even to your mother!"
Chen Guanjie, seeing this scene, was so angry he almost vomited blood, his face turning deathly pale. Stammering, he pointed at them and said, "You... this can't be... Bingshuang, you must be lying to me, how could he possibly be your husband? Just yesterday you were single, how did you get married in the blink of an eye? I don't believe it; you must have intentionally found someone to anger me, right?"
"Queen, a man has to face reality. Though I'm not sure if you count as one, let's just say you do for now. The truth is right in front of you, so give it up. Don't come around here anymore," Chen Hao continued to taunt triumphantly.
It's definitely not true, absolutely not!" Chen Guanjie, face red with rage, muttered to himself. Suddenly, he looked up with venomous eyes at Chen Hao and shouted, "Kid, I don't know where you came from, but you absolutely cannot touch my Bingshuang. I have no idea how much she paid you to act out this drama!"
"Take it! Get lost, and don't let me see you again!" As he spoke, Chen Guanjie suddenly pulled out a wad of cash and threw it in front of Chen Hao.
Then he turned to Li Bingshuang and shouted, "Bingshuang, don't forget our agreement. Once Overlord Group helps you out of trouble, you were to marry me. And now you've found an impostor to fool me, think about the consequences!"
Seeing that Li Bingshuang bit her lip without saying a word, Chen Guanjie thought his threat had worked, so he turned and yelled at Chen Hao again, "Get lost, scram! Far away! Otherwise, I'll make you wish you were dead. In Zhonghai, no one who's crossed me is still around, because I am..."
His words were cut off, as he suddenly found he could no longer speak, his neck being gripped tightly by a large hand; he hadn't even seen Chen Hao move.
"Queen, I personally enjoy when people threaten me," Chen Hao said with a faint smile, looking so calm, "Because those who threaten me, they all lay beneath the earth at my feet!"
"Cough cough..." Chen Guanjie was now where he could hardly speak, his eyes bulging out as if they would pop out of their sockets, his hands struggling frantically to break free. However, the hand on his neck was immovable, like a vice.
Li Bingshuang, seeing Chen Hao lash out as soon as he spoke, and so quickly she couldn't see, was about to intervene when suddenly she saw two men rushing over from behind him and instinctively screamed, "Watch out!"
The moment Chen Hao grabbed Chen Guanjie, his two bodyguards finally came to their senses, still dizzy from their earlier fall. Seeing their boss in danger, they loyally charged over.
It was the same tactic as before, flanking from each side. Chen Hao, with narrowed eyes and unmoving, waited for the precise moment the two men charged at him. It was as if he had eyes in the back of his head when he casually tossed Chen Guanjie behind and hurled him toward one of the bodyguards.
The bodyguard, who was poised to deliver a brutal punch, suddenly found the fist he had almost landed on Chen Hao swishing through the air, only to be startled by his master flying towards him!
He was shocked and lost his composure, but luckily, he had good reflexes and managed to forcibly withdraw his fist, then scrambled to catch him. However, the moment he embraced Chen Guanjie, the bodyguard felt an overwhelming surge of power. The force was astonishingly strong, and he couldn't help but stagger backwards. Despite his attempts to retreat in control, he couldn't stop himself and fell to the ground with a thud.
Another bodyguard, seeing his comrade stepping back while holding their master, clenched his teeth and fearlessly threw another punch. The strength and angle of the punch were such that it could only come from an expert.
Regrettably, his powerful punch hit nothing but air. Then, as if tripped by something, he went flying and crashed heavily to the ground.
This time, his groin hit the corner of a step. The most delicate part of a man was struck hard twice in a row, and even his toughness could not withstand the pain. His face turned the color of liver, he gasped for air, and beads of sweat the size of soybeans rolled down his face...
Li Bingshuang watched, dumbfounded.
If the first time was a stroke of luck that he managed to hit two brawny bodyguards, then this second time, it was absolutely not luck!
This was strength!
Sheer strength!
What exactly was he hiding?
He certainly wasn't an ordinary man!
Being tied to such a guy who seemed ordinary but was far from it, she wondered if it was a blessing or a curse.
Seeing her staring at him for a long while, Chen Hao thought he had scared her and immediately hustled over, "Wife, although I might have appeared a bit scary just now, I assure you, my feelings for you are genuine, hehe. Don't worry, I'm a man, I won't hit a woman."
Having said that, he leaned in with his mouth, "Come on, give me a kiss as a reward for solving a problem for you."
Li Bingshuang frowned slightly and deftly dodged, making Chen Hao miss.
Chen Hao didn't mind and turned around to see Chen Guanjie awkwardly struggling to stand up. He strode over, hoisted him up, and demanded, "You sissy, dare you harass my wife again?"
"Waah!" Chen Guanjie, who had none of his previous arrogance, burst into tears at the sight of the menacing figure before him.
"Wuwuwu... I won't dare anymore…"
