Gu Chenye pursed his lips and looked at her solemnly without moving.

Yan Ji added nonchalantly: "Don't worry, I won't beat her, I'm just chatting with her. If you're worried, you can just watch from the side."

She tilted her head to take a look inside, and met Mu Yunyao's eyes: "I just don't know if your dear little baby is willing."

"..."

Gu Chenye frowned in annoyance. He didn't like the rhetoric that drew a line between him and Mu Yunyao. Also, the name "darling little babe" was such a mess.

He explained with a gloomy face: "I'm not afraid that you will hit her..."

Yan Ji's face was full of impatience. It was obvious that he didn't care what he thought, but only cared about when he would leave. Gu Chenye choked in his throat and swallowed back the second half of the sentence.

He gritted his teeth in hatred, then turned and left without any hesitation.

Xie Fangze, who was enjoying his meal, hurriedly followed: "Boss Gu, you're leaving just like that? What if your wife gets bullied?"

Ever since he found out that his wife was often bullied by Mu Yunyao and her gang, he has cast a soft filter over Yan Ji.

Gu Chenye snorted coldly: "Do you think she looks like someone who will be bullied? It's good enough that she doesn't bully others."

He couldn't help but look back, but there was no sign of Yan Ji at the door of the private room. Suddenly, he felt even more upset. He wanted to tell Xie Fangze to ignore him, but he blurted out, "Wait at the door."

Xie Fangze stopped walking reflexively, and then realized what Gu Chenye called him for: "...Boss Gu, let's ask if we can hold on for five more minutes?"

"Didn't you say you wanted to be a hero and save the beauty? I'm giving you a chance." As if to avenge his idea, Gu Chenye looked at him and ordered word by word: "Watch her. If she loses a hair, don't come to work tomorrow."

Xie Fangze: "..."

Is this a case of the hero failing to save the beauty and taking his anger out on himself?

In the private room, Yan Ji walked straight to the seat opposite Mu Yunyao and sat down, "Boss Cen suddenly changed his mind. It was you who instigated it, right?"

She lowered her head and rubbed the extra teacup with her fingers as if unintentionally. The wall of the cup was hot, so the person must not have been away for too long.

Yan Ji didn’t care who Mu Yunyao was having dinner with, she just wanted to know whether the other person was an enemy or just a passerby.

Mu Yunyao raised her chin slightly. She always looked arrogant in front of Yan Ji: "You think too highly of yourself. Do I need to instigate you? I just mentioned it, and the other party swore to heaven that he would never rent the venue to you."

"Yan Ji, what can you use to fight me? I want to kill you, it's as easy as crushing an ant. No matter the Yan family or Chen Ye, they won't help you."

"Maybe..." Yan Ji curled his eyes and said nonchalantly, "I have a way out."

Mu Yunyao pursed her lips: "What retreat?"

"I'm sick," she leaned against the soft leather backrest of the dining stool, a look of regret on her face. "But in recent years I've loved life and haven't been stimulated much, so my condition is under control. But if someone doesn't want me to live a good life, then I'll just go crazy."

"When the time comes, you'll go to the crematorium and I'll go to the mental hospital, and we'll be even."

Yan Ji didn't want to take this route unless it was absolutely necessary. The Mu family's residence had good security, and they had bodyguards following them in and out. Her few mediocre kung fu skills were not good enough to take the Mu family away with them, but if she only took Mu Yunyao away, it would be a bit of a loss.

"..."

Mu Yunyao's body was visibly tense, but she didn't want to lose to Yan Ji, so she pretended to be calm and snorted, "Don't scare me. If you dare to touch me, my dad will definitely not let you go."

"Why don't you let me go? Kill me and bury me with you? But what will you get then?" Yan Ji looked at her for a moment with a half-smile, and spoke lightly but forcefully: "Mu Yunyao, if we can't get this venue, then I will fight you to the death."

From last year to this year, she knew clearly how much effort Sheng Rugu had put in for this event. Countless times when the two of them worked overtime until late at night, she ate instant noodles while fantasizing about making their names famous in the design circle through this fashion show. Every time she talked about this, her eyes sparkled.

Yan Ji couldn't let her efforts go to waste because of the grudge between him and Mu Yunyao.

After finishing what he wanted to say, Yan Ji didn't want to stay even a second longer. When he stood up, he raised his hand in the air.

Mu Yunyao leaned back cautiously: "What are you going to do?"

During the time since she came back, she had heard a lot about Yan Ji and knew that she was now a crazy woman who would beat people at any time.

Yan Ji curled his lips and looked down at her: "Don't be afraid, I promised Gu Chenye that I won't hit you."

Mu Yunyao choked up and said, "If you dare to touch me, Chen Ye will not let you go. Don't think that if you force him to marry you, you will really be Mrs. Gu."

Yan Ji didn't say anything, just hummed a sarcastic syllable from her throat, then turned and left. Mu Yunyao stared at her until her figure completely disappeared in the private room, then she threw the cup in her hand away fiercely.

As soon as I opened the door next door, Sheng Rugu came up with an anxious look on his face: "How is it?"

"Let's go back and wait for news." Yan Ji didn't say anything too absolute. She wasn't sure if Mu Yunyao would be so stubborn as to choose to fight to the death. "What about them?"

Sheng Rugu said: "I hired a designated driver to take them to a nearby hotel. Which big shot did you ask for help, a man or a woman? I can prepare a thank you gift."

"I'll just prepare it, you don't have to worry about it."

She didn't tell Sheng Rugu that it was Mu Yunyao who did it, she just said she was going to find someone to deal with it.

"alright."

The designated driver arrived quickly and made three trips before he got the three men, who were drunk as dead pigs, into the car. In order to avoid any complications, Yan Ji and Sheng Rugu waited until he drove away with his men before getting up to pay the bill.

The receptionist clicked a few times on the computer, looked up and smiled at them, "Miss, your bill has been paid."

Sheng Rugu was surprised: "Who bought it?"

Are there still such good people nowadays?

The receptionist glanced behind her, smiled and said nothing, but her meaning was very clear.

The two turned their heads and saw Gu Chenye standing there with a sullen face. He was wearing a thin shirt and a custom-made handmade coat casually draped over his bent arms. The man seemed a little drunk, and the corners of his eyes were slightly red under the light. The look he gave Yan Ji was also a little blurry and unclear.

He snorted and said in a hoarse voice: "Stupid, where do so many fools come from?"
