Gu Yuyan was already pretty, and with her crying now, the people in the private room were immediately filled with sympathy for her, feeling indignant on her behalf.
“Shen, you can’t let that woman get away with this. She’s too arrogant. Women need to be suppressed, or else they’ll end up riding over you?”
“Exactly, Miss Gu is so pitiful, isn’t she? Look at how she’s all messed up, with such serious injuries on her face. That woman really doesn’t hold back!”
Gu Ziye’s expression also turned sour and said, “Shen, I won’t let Rong Qi off the hook. She’s too insolent. She must pay the price!”
“What do you want?” Ye Nanshen asked gently, but it sounded chilling. He toyed with a cigarette between his slender, and fair fingers. The narrow eyes made it hard to discern his emotions.
Gu Ziye paused and thought, ‘Yeah, what could 1 do? I couldn’t really go and hit a woman as a grown man.’
Gu Ziye scowled, feeling frustrated.
‘When a woman hits a man, it’s considered impressive. When a man hits a woman, it’s considered disgraceful.’ Every time Gu Ziye thought about this, it made him angry.
Gu Ziye really wanted to beat up Rong Qi. Too bad, she was a woman and it was so infuriating to him. He felt like Rong Qi was specifically targeting him.
Gu Yuyan watched Ye Nanshen’s gaze. He didn’t give her a single look from start to finish, and her heart couldn’t help but ache. Her fists clenched, and she gritted her teeth. She urged, “Drive her away. She’s not worthy of you.”
Suddenly, Ye Nanshen looked up at Gu Yuyan and his gaze turned icy.
Gu Yuyan couldn’t help but shiver.
Ye Nanshen squinted his eyes slightly, a mocking smile tugging at his lips. He asked, “Drive her away and replace you?”
Gu Yuyan was taken aback by Ye Nanshen’s words. She stammered, “1-1 didn’t mean that. Nanshen, you misunderstood me…”
Gu Yuyan’s expression was stubborn and aggrieved. “Is that how you see me now? I’m only doing this for your own good. Rong Qi pretended to be retard and fooled you. Now she’s extremely malicious, injuring me. I just want an explanation.”
“What if I say no?” Ye Nanshen asked. His voice was calm but exuded invisible pressure.
Gu Yuyan’s face showed a hint of hurt, and she clenched her teeth. She said, “if you can’t bear to, then don’t blame me. Ziye, call the police. I want to report Rong Qi for intentional harm!”
A trace of cold cruelty flashed through Ye Nanshen’s deep pupils. His expression turned cold, and when he looked at Gu Yuyan again, there was a touch of indifference.
“Calling the police is fine. I’ll vouch for Rong Qi.” Ye Nanshen spoke, his voice chilling.
“Nanshen!” Gu Yuyan exclaimed as she felt like her heart was being twisted with a knife, the pain making it hard to breathe.
Gu Ziye took out his phone, looking conflicted. He thought, ‘If we called the police, this matter would escalate. The faces of both the Gu and Ye families would be lost. After we returned home, I was sure to get an earful from my father.
However, Gu Yuyan seemed to have made up her mind. She yelled at Gu Ziye, “Gu Ziye, I’m telling you to call the police. Are you deaf? Are you going to watch me get bullied by an outsider?”
Gu Ziye grabbed his hair, swiped his phone, and prepared to dial a number.
Just then, the entrance suddenly filled with a series of soft chirps.
Everyone turned around and saw Rong Qi rushing in while clutching her neck. She immediately pounced into Ye Nanshen’s arms.
Ye Nanshen naturally caught Rong Qi.
That scene ached Gu Yuyan’s heart. Even when she was dating Ye Nanshen in the past, she didn’t dare to be so intimate with him.
Ye Nanshen had a cleanliness obsession. At banquets before, when a woman deliberately fell to approach him and accidentally brushed against his clothes, he would immediately have them thrown away..
