Chapter 417: Chapter 417: The Protection of this Man

The few men and women who found a secluded corner to throw things at Rong Yan were stunned for a few seconds when they realized they’d hit the wrong person.

However, the leader, seeing security personnel rushing over, bit his lip and said to the others who were taken aback, “What are you spacing out for, keep smashing!”

“But…”

But Rong Yan was firmly protected in a man’s embrace, and they couldn’t hit her even if they tried.

The leader, with a darkened face and filled with anger, said, “What do I care! Smash! I don’t believe he won’t get out of the way! If he doesn’t, then smash him too!”

“But that guy seems to have an unusual status, will we get into trouble if we continue?” someone asked timidly.

The leader already had a plan in mind and didn’t care at all, responding with a dismissive sneer, “What are you afraid of? I looked it up online already. The most our actions could be considered is disturbing public order, and even if the police come, at most we’ll be detained for a few days. After a few days, we’ll be out and as good as new!”

The others had looked up the possible consequences of their actions before coming, and hearing her words, any slight worry they had disappeared.

Right, at most it would just be a few days of detention for disturbing public order, what is there to fear?

Quickly agreeing among themselves, they picked up items from their bags and continued to throw them towards the stage before the security could arrive—

Eggs were thrown as if they cost nothing, one after another hitting the man who stood upright. They also hit the heart of the broadcast station’s director! He was so angry his face was almost turning green!

“Damn it! Hurry up!”

“Tell the transmission room to quickly cut to the ads! Stop filming!”

If the broadcast continued, he’d lose his job!

Who on earth are these people, bold enough to keep throwing eggs even when they see Mr. Li on stage!

Rong Yan was continuously protected in a warm embrace, the back of her head pressed against his chest so she could only hear the strong beating of his heart, seeing nothing.

“Li Shengxiao…” Although she couldn’t see, she could hear the noisy commotion below and smell the odor of eggs on him, her heart twisted into knots. She tried to push him away but couldn’t, saying anxiously, “Li Shengxiao, let me go.”

No one knew better than she how severe this man’s obsession with cleanliness was!

If someone had to be hit by eggs, she’d rather it be herself.

“Don’t move.” Just as she tried to move, her waist was firmly held again.

Rong Yan bit her lip, her face full of urgency, trying to think of a way to make him let go of her. Just then, she heard a muffled thud different from the sound of eggs, followed by Gu Ming’s exclamation, “President!”

…What happened?

She couldn’t see anything, so her anxiety grew, “Li Shengxiao, what’s wrong? Are you alright?”

Gu Ming was shouting so loudly, what happened?

The man who firmly held her in his embrace had a deep, rough voice, calm as if nothing had happened, “It’s nothing. Yanyan, I’ve got everything under control!”

I’ve got everything under control!

Four words, heavier than a thousand pounds!

Rong Yan’s heart felt heavy, a mix of feelings she couldn’t describe.

Meanwhile, people below were on the verge of panic.

Especially Gu Ming and the station director, one with a dark face and the other with varying shades of anger and fear coloring his face, looking ghastly pale and green.

Oh my God, those people had other things hidden in their bags.

They dared to smash such a large stone at the back of his head!
