Chen Fang was shaking with rage. She looked around for a makeshift weapon, but finding none, she turned to go into a room to search for one, yelling, "Don't you dare move! I'm not finished with you today!"
Li Jiahui quickly stopped her.
Shen Xin also stepped forward immediately, signaling for them both to calm down.

Shen Xin quickly revealed his identity.
