Gu Sheng did not expect anyone to still be awake at this hour, so he spoke without restraint. The malice in his words became more obvious, and many insulting words were used on Gu Shen.

“Gu Shen wants my father to get rid of me. Of course, my father wouldn’t listen to him. Gu Shen is just a joke in the eyes of outsiders.”

“Alright, I’m hanging up. I still have to act like a good son in front of my dad tomorrow. Keep an eye on Gu Shen. It’s best if you can teach him a lesson.”

“There will be plenty of benefits. You can choose any of the women in the shop. I’ll get someone to send them to you.”

Gu Sheng hung up the phone and walked into the house leisurely. He hunched his body slightly and looked around.

With a clang, Gu Sheng was smashed to the ground by the door frame. The back of his head hit the ground and Gu Sheng took a long time to get up.

He had just taken a step when his feet slipped again and he fell to the ground.

This time, his butt hit the ground, and he grimaced in pain.

“What the f*ck are you waiting for!” Gu Sheng looked at the servant, Auntie Zhang, who ran over and said, “Call the doctor!”

“Yes.”

After Auntie Zhang left with Gu Sheng, Yan Xi walked out from the corner.

She closed the door of the cabinet and then cleaned the water on the ground.

How dare he speak ill of Gu Shen in front of her.

Tl smash you to death!

After getting rid of the evidence, Yan Xi returned upstairs quietly. She wanted to tell Gu Shen about this tomorrow, but he had already woken up and was looking at her with his sharp eyes in the dark.

“Where did you go?”

“Did I wake you up?” Yan Xi sat beside him quite naturally and handed him the water. “I went down and got a bottle of water. Do you want some?”

“No need.” Gu Shen looked at the water beside her hand. “Sleep early.”

“Wait a minute. I have something to tell you.” Yan Xi felt that it was cold and pulled the blanket to cover her lower body. She moved closer to Gu Shen and said angrily, “You have to be careful of Gu Sheng. Not only did he badmouth you, but he also got people to investigate you. He said he wants to teach

you a lesson.”

“Also, he probably has some illegal industries under him because I heard that he wants to give girls to the person on the phone. What a shameless man!”

The more Yan Xi spoke, the angrier she got. “He doesn’t treat girls as humans at all. He’s just treating them as objects.”

“Why are you so angry?” Gu Shen looked at her. “Did you eavesdrop?”

Not really eavesdropping. He spoke very loudly.”

Gu Shen frowned. “Did he find out?”

“No!” Yan Xi was proud, She moved her feet. “Not only did he not find out, but I also taught him a lesson. He’s currently in the hospital in the backyard.”

“Very good.” Gu Shen’s lips curled up. “But don’t do this kind of thing again. Gu Sheng can be very mean. If he finds out that I’m not by your side, the consequences will be very serious.”

“Iknow, so I’m very careful.”

Gu Shen rubbed her hair. “I can handle Gu Sheng. You don’t have to get involved in this.”

He knew that Yan Xi did not like to be restrained, and he did not want her to be trapped in this mess. Gu Shen only wanted to see Yan Xi happily standing by his side every day.

“Okay.” Yan Xi paused and asked, “After dealing with Gu Sheng, can you save those girls?”

“I promise you.”

It was almost noon when Yan Xi woke up.

Gu Shen had already changed into his suit. He adjusted his tie. “You’re awake. Pack up and go downstairs to eat.”

Yan Xi mumbled to herself, then rubbed her eyes and stood in front of Gu Shen, helping him adjust his tie. “ll wash up and come after changing.”

After washing up, Yan Xi pushed Gu Shen downstairs. There were only a few people in the dining room. Old Master Gu sat at the head of the table. When he saw the two of them, he coughed and asked in a deep voice, “If you guys want to eat, tell the kitchen.”

Yan Xi nodded, but her expression was colder than before. Old Master Gu looked at her again but did not say anything.

“Is there anything you want to eat?” Yan Xi bent down and said in Gu Shen’s ear, “I’l tell the kitchen.”

“Coffee and toast.”

“Don’t drink coffee when you just wake up. I’ll get milk for you instead.”

Gu Shen compromised easily. “Okay.”

Yan Xi walked into the kitchen and asked Auntie Zhang, who was busy, “Do you have milk?”

Auntie Zhang looked up at her and then lowered her head, ignoring Yan Xi.

“Hello?” Yan Xi frowned, but she still asked politely, “Is there still milk?”
