Upon hearing the words, Gu Chen remained silent. He gently picked up a chopstick from the table and weighed it in his hand.
Whoosh!
The next moment, Gu Chen casually threw the chopstick out. It turned into a cold glint in the air, flashing briefly before piercing towards Yang Mingyue's neck.
"Gu Chen!"
Seeing Gu Chen daring to make his move right in front of him, Mo Zilin was instantly furious. Of course, he couldn't just stand by and watch Yang Mingyue get hurt. His arm flickered, turning into a blur, and he caught the chopstick just before it could strike Yang Mingyue's throat, pinching it between his fingers.
Yang Mingyue was also terrified by Gu Chen's sudden move. In that instant, she genuinely felt the threat of death, her pores standing on end and a layer of cold sweat breaking out on her back. After a long while, she still stood there, dumbfounded, as if she had lost her senses.
