"..."

Ye Yuwei looked at the person who had failed to threaten others but sought her own self-destruction instead—Bai Yuyan. Ye Yuwei saw the other's expression of disbelief, and she immediately felt a lot better.

"Who asked Yuyan to leave?" Madame Gu walked down the stairs and in the first instance, glared at Ye Yuwei.

"Grandma, Miss Bai herself said that she would be leaving." Gu Juexi was standing next to Ye Yuwei, his voice as faint as before.

It was this faint voice that was somewhat infuriating.

Bai Yuyan pursed her lips tightly, while her hands reached out and held onto Madame Gu's arm. "Grandma, Yuwei may not want me to live here at all."

"On what basis? What rights does she have? I have the final say in this house." The old lady sneered loudly. "I would like to see who dares to chase you out."

"Hey, old mistress, are you blind?" Xiao Yaojing jeered out loud.

"What did you say?!" The old lady shouted angrily. "Who are you?"

"Grandma, she is Yuwei's friend," Bai Yuyan said hastily.

After Bai Yuyan spoke, Madame Gu's face immediately showed disdain.

Ye Yuwei grasped Xiao Yaojing's arm, looked Madame Gu straight in the eye and said, "Grandma, Miss Bai herself said that she wants to go. Everyone heard it, or did Miss Bai say it just for fun?"

"I—" Bai Yuyan had been repeatedly confronted twice by Gu Juexi and Ye Yuwei. As of this moment, she really did not know how to refute them.

Lu Qichuan looked at Gu Juexi and Ye Yuwei—this husband and wife pair, who had joined forces to stand up against another person. It was a dramatic scene indeed.

Of course, when no one was around, these two people liked to verbally challenge one another. Moreover, it was obvious that Ye Yuwei was no match against Gu Juexi.

Madame Gu frowned as she looked at Bai Yuyan.

Bai Yuyan's voice sounded all the more aggrieved as she whispered, "I am only afraid that staying here will make Yuwei feel disturbed, so that's why I said, 'why don't I leave?'"

"Then, why haven't you leave yet?" It seemed Gu Juexi was perturbed that the other opponent had not been completely defeated by him, and went on to add another lethal sentence.

"..."

Mr. Gu was indeed the world's number one slayer.

Ye Yuwei lowered her gaze without speaking, but what others did not see was the mirth reflected in her eyes.

However, this amusement was put away quickly.

"Do you intend to chase her out together with your grandmother?" Madame Gu's cane struck the ground as she spoke.

'Then, I am sorry for this.'

"How about I let Butler Kim send you back to the United States?"

Who could he not verbally slay? Mr. Gu would slay anyone all the same.

The moment Gu Juexi's voice rang, the whole living room descended into complete silence.

Xiao Yaojing could not figure out what was the intention of this womanizer Gu.

Ye Yuwei opened her mouth slightly and was about to confront Bai Yuyan again, but was directly suppressed by Gu Juexi instead. "Go upstairs. Haven't you said enough?"

"..."

All this while, Lu Qichuan was watching the entire drama unfold. 'Very good. Indeed, there is no one that Slayer Gu wouldn't stand against.'

"It is getting late, so I will go back first," Lu Qichuan said as he stood up.

Based on the current situation, he didn't have to worry about Ye Yuwei at all. This was because, even though Boss might have a fondness of challenging her, he would all the more stick up for her against other people. Not even his own grandmother would be spared. As such, he could feel rest assured.

It was just that, this kind of assurance brought about an inexplicable sense of loss in him.

He really ought to give up once and for all.

"Yaojing, let's go." Lu Qichuan said, casting a glance at Xiao Yaojing who was still in a state of shock as a result of Gu Juexi's actions. Lu Qichuan seemed to be asking her with his eyes, 'Still not feeling rest assured?'

Xiao Yaojing met the gaze of Lu Qichuan and did not know what to think, but when she saw that Ye Yuwei was fine, she also felt rest assured.
