Gu Yuyan took a few steps forward, looking at the woman in the red dress, clenching her fists in secret. She took a deep breath, locking her gaze on Rong Qi, and said, “Miss Shanon, rd like to ask where you studied? How much do you know about Nanshen’s illness? And also, does he… still have a chance to stand up?”
For some reason, Gu Yuyan felt those eyes were somewhat familiar, but she couldn’t recall exactly.
Rong Qi chuckled lightly and said, “I’m sorry, those unrelated have no right to know.”
“You!” Gu Yuyan was left stunned, utterly exasperated by Rong Qi’s arrogance.
Gu Yuyan found that her self-control was deteriorating. Whether it was meeting Rong Qi or the current Shanon, she was easily able to ignite her anger. She eyed the face mask on Rong Qi’s face, a hint of confusion flickering in her eyes.
Suppressing her anger, Gu Yuyan instead smiled and said, “Miss Shanon, I assume you’re not aware of who you are treating, right? The intimacy between you and Nanshen just now could easily be misunderstood. Do you know that the man you treated is actually married?”
As Gu Yuyan spoke, she kept an eye on Rong Qi’s expression, yet her exposed eyes remained impassive.
Gu Yuyan couldn’t help but feel defeated. She couldn’t believe that in the presence of someone as outstanding as Ye Nanshen, a woman wouldn’t be moved.
However, Rong Qi remained completely unbothered.
Gu Yuyan frowned, took a few steps forward, and softly said, “Miss Shanon, I admire you and sincerely want to be friends with you. How about I invite you for a cup of coffee? We can talk properly. 1 think…”
“Ugh~”
Suddenly, a drunken man stumbled into their vicinity, walking unsteadily. He leaned against the wall and bent over to vomit.
Gu Yuyan’s eyebrows furrowed, and a hint of disgust crossed her eyes as she covered her nose, took a few steps back, and said, “Who are you? Get away from me!”
The man suddenly turned his head, a pile of filth on the ground. He cast a lecherous look at Gu Yuyan and chuckled, then staggered towards her.
“What do you want? I warn you not to mess around.” Gu Yuyan warned. She was somewhat intimidated by his blatant gaze and couldn’t help but step back.
The drunken man suddenly stood up, moving closer to Gu Yuyan and grabbing her chin.
Gu Yuyan screamed in fright, attracting the attention of a person from a nearby private room, who came out. It was the members of Class 1 that had a gathering. Besides them, other customers were also drawn outside.
Their current position was right by the second-floor staircase, with many people passing by. However, everyone stood still, watching but not approaching.
The man staggered and reached out with his pig-like mouth to kiss Gu Yuyan. Just as he was about to make contact, Rong Qi’s eyes darkened, and she reached out, gripping the man’s wrist and forcing him to let go of Gu Yuyan.
The man winced from the pain, letting go of Gu Yuyan with his right hand, clenching his fist, and swinging it towards Rong Qi. Rong Qi managed to dodge.
But, Gu Yuyan let out a scream. Her feet slipped, and she fell backward.
Rong Qi frowned, reaching out to grab Gu Yuyan, but unexpectedly, the drunken man lunged at her.
“Be careful!”
Just as Rong Qi was being attacked by the man at the stairwell, a voice suddenly sounded, and He Jinghan quickly rushed in.
Gu Yuyan watched in surprise as Rong Qi easily dodged the man’s attack, but her face mask was seized by the man, who ripped it off, revealing her face to everyone present.
With a cold glint in his eyes, He Jinghan stepped forward, kicked the drunken man, and sent him tumbling down the stairs. There was a series of thumping noises before all that was left was the man’s cries of pain.
“Are you okay?” He Jinghan asked as he looked at Rong Qi with concern..
