Chapter 88 I Want to Eat Ice Cream

Chu Jinzhao smiled and shook his head without leaving immediately. Instead, he leaned lazily against the carved door frame of the Ye Family's back entrance, lit a cigarette, and began to smoke leisurely.

From the darkness ahead, suddenly came a woman's scream—

"Help..."

Only a single cry before it sounded like someone was choking her, cutting off the rest mid-throat.

Chu Jinzhao's expression changed abruptly, and after only a second's hesitation, he snuffed out his cigarette and strode toward the source of the sound.

As he got closer, he heard a man's vicious voice, "You little bitch, you don't want the face I gave you, huh? Daring to slap me, you're fucking asking for it."

Accompanying his words were two crisp slaps.

A woman with disheveled hair in an orange evening gown was pinned against the wall; the man's hand clenched tightly around her throat, exerting force, compelling her to stand on tiptoe with all her might.
