Chapter 410: Chapter 411: Fighting?
How much he wished Gu Junzhu was already tired of Ye Xingbei and had separated from Ye Xingbei.
He would never scorn Ye Xingbei. He would pursue Ye Xingbei with all his might until she agreed to be with him.
But now…
He looked at Gu Junzhu, and reluctantly twitched the corner of his lips, “Fifth Brother, what a coincidence.”
Gu Junzhu also had a smile on his face. “Hmm, indeed a coincidence.”
Jee Xiu glanced at Ye Xingbei: “Ah Li and I are going to lunch, Fifth Brother may join us with Beibei.”
Even if Gu Junzhu was present, it didn’t matter as long as he could look at Beibei a few more times, he would be content.
He missed her so much.
He dreamt of her.
“No,” Gu Junzhu laughed, “Beibei isn’t feeling well today. I need to feed her. If there are too many people, I’m afraid she’ll be shy.”
“…” What a terrible excuse!
The heat on Ye Xingbei’s face flared up again.
Even though the excuse was clearly false, but in his worry Jee Xiu couldn’t help but look at Ye Xingbei a few extra times. “What’s wrong with Beibei? Where does she feel uncomfortable?”
Gu Junzhu, seriously and convincingly, said, “She got into a fight last night and accidentally hurt her hand.”
“…”A fight?
The phrase “fairy fighting” uttered by Xiao Shumiao flashed across Ye Xingbei’s mind, making her face even redder.
“A fight?” Jee Xiu believed him a little more, viewing Ye Xingbei with an even more worried look: “Who did Beibei fight with? Why? Do you need help?”
“It’s fine,” Gu Junzhu’s face turned cold as ice: “Beibei is my wife, I can handle my wife’s issues, I don’t need any other man’s intervention. Ah Li, as they say, guests should be treated well. Shouldn’t you hurry up and serve the guest food?”
Ye Xingli: “… Ah, alright, Fifth Brother!”
While enthusiastically ushering Jee Xiu to lunch, tears streamed down his cheeks.
Although he had recently been demoted from Second Brother to Fourth Brother, he was still a brother, wasn’t he?
Being Beibei’s brother, should he also be Gu Junzhu’s brother-in-law?
How could Gu Junzhu treat his brother-in-law with such an attitude?
So what if he’s an elder?
…Alright, being an elder is indeed a big deal.
At least now, thanks to Beibei’s relationship, he and the Fifth Lord of Gu are on the same level.
If it wasn’t for Beibei, he would still be calling the Fifth Lord of Gu as Fifth Uncle.
One should be content with what they have!
He silently wiped away the bitter tears and clung to Jee Xiu’s shoulder:
” Brother Xiu, it’ s getting late, let’ s hurry and eat. Let’ s go, let’ s go!”
Jee Xiu didn’t want to leave Ye Xingbei, but he also had no choice but to follow Ye Xingli out of the room.
The hall only had one exit, Gu Junzhu and Ye Xingbei deliberately lagged behind a bit.
They hadn’t yet reached the door when they heard screams and cries from outside.
Ye Xingbei frowned and hurried a few steps, “It sounds like Penny.”
She followed the sound.
Sure enough, Ye Xingli and Jee Xiu, who had left earlier, were being blocked by Penny.
Just overnight, Penny looked much worse for wear.
She was clutching at Ye Xingli’s clothes, desperately pleading.
Ye Xingli pushed her away, scolded her sternly a few times, and walked towards the parking lot.
Suddenly, Penny took out a bottle from her bag, uncapped it, yelled “Ye
Xingli!”, and threw the liquid in the bottle at Ye Xingli.
Ye Xingbei was so scared that her heart almost stopped. Without a second thought, she rushed forward and pushed Ye Xingli aside.
Ye Xingli was pushed to the side by her, but it was already too late for her to dodge.
The bottle’s sparkling liquid, right in front of her eyes, poured down in
torrents.
