Shocking! The young educated youth had just arrived and was already clashing with spies.

Chapter 994 He felt a deep sense of contempt.

Before Zhang Ye could understand what Chu Xin meant, he instinctively wanted to follow her inside, but suddenly an arm was thrust across his face.

"Just watch from here." Zhou Yichen's voice was so cold it could drop ice crystals. "If you still don't understand, I suggest you go and gain some experience at the grassroots level."

Zhang Ye: ...

He felt a deep sense of contempt.

His face, which was flushed with a mixture of colors, showed how much he wanted to talk back, but he didn't dare to because of his conscience. He could only look to Chu Yunting for help.

Chu Yunting bit into a piece of meat and rubbed it for a while. Finally, while pretending to look at the sky, the ground, and the air, he whispered, "This, this doesn't have to be so strict. One can only grow better by experiencing more things, right?"

Zhou Yichen cast a cold glance at him, then sneered and curled his lips, "You think you're all right?"

Chu Yunting immediately turned away to avoid his eyes.

But they didn't dare to run away; they just cowered and dared not face the cold-faced King of Hell.

At the same time, he deeply regretted not stopping Chu Xin; perhaps if she were there, he wouldn't be in such a terrible situation.

But what's done is done, and he could only play dumb. "Hahaha, really? I... I didn't do anything, did I?"

Zhou Yichen didn't speak, only stared at him coldly. Even though Chu Yunting was being stared at from behind, he felt goosebumps all over his body.

He couldn't hold on for long. He raised his hands and turned around with a look of grim determination, saying the most humble words with the most heroic expression, "Can you find a place where no one is around to deal with me? I still have some dignity."

Zhou Yichen glanced at the figures in the conference room before turning to walk out, saying, "Come here."

"Alright!" Chu Yunting immediately followed with small, quick steps.

As soon as he got away from the others, he was kicked in the knee and immediately fell to his knees.

Zhou Yichen lowered his eyes and stared intently at him, "Did the wind blow your brain away?"

"No...no..." Chu Yunting felt guilty and didn't dare to look up, his voice so low it was almost inaudible.

"No? Very well. Since you still have your head, then explain to me why you did that?" Zhou Yichen nodded lightly, a slight smile playing on his lips, but it only made him more frightening.

Chu Yunting was terrified and tried to crawl away, but the next moment, a heavy weight landed on his shoulder, and a large hand pressed down on it with the force of a thousand pounds, making him unable to move no matter what he did.

Knowing there was no way to avoid it, he could only quickly, weakly, and softly hum, "I just wanted to test Xiao Chu's superpower..."

He was genuinely curious because he had never seen anything like it among so many people around him.

Zhou Yichen looked at him like he was an idiot, "Didn't you ever think that she would be suspected because of this?"

“I know my limits and I will never let Zhang Ye overthink things. Making an excuse to let you and Xiao Chu assess the feasibility of forcibly breaking down the door was just a spur-of-the-moment idea. The real purpose of bringing Xiao Chu to Xishan Village was to persuade those women to cooperate with the investigation. Zhang Ye will not doubt it.”

Zhou Yichen glanced at him out of the corner of his eye, and tightened his grip on him. "Blind confidence isn't a good thing, Chu Yunting, you're getting a little too cocky!"

"hiss--"

Chu Yunting quickly shrank his neck, "Ouch, ouch, ouch! Let go! My shoulder is going to break!"

"I want you to feel pain, so you'll learn your lesson!"

Zhou Yichen even increased the pressure by another ten percent, squeezing the bones under his hand until they cracked. "Just because Chu Xin isn't holding it against you doesn't mean this matter can be easily forgotten. Don't forget why she was targeted by others back then. I've already lost her once, and I absolutely cannot suffer a second time."

Moreover, no one can guarantee she'll have another chance, do you understand, Chu Yunting?
