Chapter 697: Chapter 701: How Dare He Say It Out Loud!
The cane hit the ground, emitting a “thud”. Ye Xingbei’s eyes, as though obscured by fresh blood, gradually cleared.
Only after seeing the reality before her, did she come to her senses… Just a moment ago, she almost beat Ye Weiyang to death.
Even now, Ye Weiyang’s face is bruised and swollen, his nose and mouth bleeding. It doesn’t look good for him at all.
Gu Junzhu enveloped her from behind, caressing her achy, numb fingers. He whispered near her ear, “It’s okay, Ye Xiaobei, I’m here. Deep breaths. It’s all over…”
Only after feeling Ye Xingbei’s shivering body regain its calm did he turn her around, pulling her into his embrace, kissing her forehead, “Good girl, I’m here, you’re safe now…”
Ye Xingbei breathed out gently, wrapping her trembling arms around his waist and buried her face in his chest, “I’m okay…”
She gripped Gu Junzhu tightly, filled with a sense of dread.
She had almost killed someone.
Luckily, he arrived in time.
Gu Junzhu often teased her for being a hypocrite. She realized now that there indeed resided a devil within her.
Being provoked by the sight of the blood-soaked Yu Nuo, reminded of the years of humiliation they endured at the Ye Family, all the old grudges and resentments surged up, and she couldn’t control her emotions.
She was like a victim of domestic abuse.
Once, twice, again, and again… Again and again, she endured until she could endure no more. The accumulated resentment suddenly erupted, and she almost killed someone.
Whenever she read such news, she felt pity for the killer.
The abuser deserved to die, but the victim who killed the abuser still had to face the law’s punishment.
Luckily, before she killed Ye Weiyang, Gu Junzhu arrived.
She held on tight to Gu Junzhu, burying her face in his embrace, not wanting to move at all.
“Beibei, are you okay?” Ye Xingli and Ye Xinglan arrived in haste, as they live very close to Ye Bingjun’s house.
Ye Xingli charged in front, invisible to outward eyes, his voice echoing first.
Seeing Ye Xingli bursting into the living room, a furious Ye Bingjun, who was seated on the couch by Gu Family bodyguards, roared, “Xiao Li, look. Look at the state of our house! We were peacefully dining, and Ye Xingbei turned our home into this mess and hurt Weiyang. Quickly, call the doctor!”
Ye Xinglan followed Ye Xingli into the living room, right in time to hear Ye Bingjun’s roar.
He frowned and asked Gu Junzhu, “Fifth Brother, what happened?”
Gu Junzhu stroked Ye Xingbei’s back and said curtly, “Your Ye Family members are quite something. They stole Yu Nuo’s breakfast right under- broad daylight and beat Yu Nuo so badly that he is now seriously injured. Beibei, furious, came alone to avenge Yu Nuo. Fortunately, I arrived in time, else who knows how much more she would have been bullied by your family.”
Ye Bingjun was so angry that he nearly passed out.
This is the renowned Fifth Lord of Gu?
How dare he, to brazenly lie!
From the beginning to end, they, his family, were battered and pinned to the ground. Before they could react, their dining table was smashed, his grandson knocked down.
He had just called for the bodyguards when those protecting Ye Xingbei stormed in like a pack of wolves.
They didn’t even have a chance to fight back before they were subdued and rendered immobile.
They bullied Ye Xingbei?
How dare he even speak that lie!
Ye Xinglan’s face turned icy cold. He looked at Ye Bingjun and instructed Ye Xingli, “Xiao Li, call grandpa and ask him to come over.”
