The one who sent Qin Xueling flying with a kick was, of course, Lu Cheng, who had come in with Shen Nian.
'What a joke. This woman tried to bully Shen Nian when I wasn't around, and now she dares to try and hurt her right in front of me? Not a chance!'
It wasn't that Lu Cheng didn't know how to be gentle with women. It was just that he reserved such tenderness exclusively for his wife.
As for the woman before him—a woman who held a grudge against his wife, who constantly plotted against his wife, and who now had the audacity to try and harm his wife right in front of him—Lu Cheng's position was clear: a kick was not up for debate.
And Lu Cheng didn't stop at just kicking her away. After sending Qin Xueling stumbling, he immediately pulled Shen Nian into his arms, shielding her as if afraid someone else might get too close.
