"You’re too eager for victory. You knew I couldn’t defeat your seven avatars, so if you could hide, why didn’t you just watch from the side instead of supporting the fight?" Ye Tian was also quite injured; the place where he was hit now felt like it was on fire.
"Is it really that simple?" Guo Bin couldn’t believe it. With the strength of his attack, how could there be time to consider those things?
"Of course it’s that simple. The world is full of complicated things, and if you always think in complexity, of course, everything seems complicated. But I think differently; I always look for the simplest solution." Ye Tian, exhausted, sat down on the sofa. The Barrier had been broken, and Bai Yanwu was still lying there.
"So the hit you took, you did that on purpose?"
"Yes. How else would I know what your strength was?"
Actually, the matter was quite straightforward. Ye Tian didn’t really know where Guo Bin was. He believed that Guo Bin had intentionally let him go this time. So, no matter where he attacked, Guo Bin would show up. Fortunately, he really did find the weakness.
"Let’s go." Guo Bin struggled to stand up, feeling as if his internal organs had shifted with Ye Tian’s strike.
"Thank you." Ye Tian meant it from the bottom of his heart; he didn’t know why Guo Bin had let him go, but after all, the man had given him a dignified way to leave.
After Ye Tian left, Zhang Qiang, arm in arm with the flirtatious Sun Yue, entered the nightclub. Sun Yue still bore some strange bruises, but it seemed to be nothing unusual for the people around her.
"What? You’re saying Bai Yanwu was taken away by Ye Tian?" Zhang Qiang rebuked Guo Bin loudly.
"Zhang Qiang, I’m not your subordinate. Don’t shout at me!" Guo Bin’s eyes were like knives, cutting through Zhang Qiang.
"Why the arrogance? Isn’t it because of that person that you stayed by Xiao Yi’s side? He isn’t completely confident in Xiao Yi, is he? Otherwise, why would he have you monitor Xiao Yi? I’ve always said that I’m the best choice, but he insists on valuing Xiao Yi." Zhang Qiang’s hand roamed inappropriately over the woman’s curves.
"People like you could never be a good boss. Your mind is too wicked." Guo Bin spat out a mouthful of bloody saliva.
"What’s wicked? I’ve always said that we should just straight-up kill Old Man Bai, but Xiao Yi wouldn’t have it. Now look at him suffering; isn’t that wicked? If Old Man Bai died, Bai Yanwu wouldn’t have to be in a dilemma, and now she even has to marry a man old enough to be her uncle. Isn’t Xiao Yi wicked for that?" Zhang Qiang had known that Xiao Yi had brought Bai Yanwu here. He was prepared to take his chances with her, not expecting her to be rescued.
"Xiao Yi has his own plans, don’t meddle and mind your own business..."
"It seems you’ve always been dissatisfied with me." Guo Bin hadn’t finished speaking when they heard Xiao Yi’s voice.
"How could that be?" Zhang Qiang immediately pushed away Sun Yue, who was clinging to him, and turned to Xiao Yi with a series of apologetic smiles.
"But I feel that you’re dissatisfied with me. I originally asked you to protect Bai Yanwu well, but you let your woman kidnap her, and she almost did something unthinkable. That’s true, isn’t it?" Xiao Yi spoke calmly, but his words were filled with an oppressive force.
"That was Sun Yue acting on her initiative. I have already punished her." Zhang Qiang’s sweat poured down.
"Then why are you still keeping this woman around? What? Does she really suit your taste that much?" Xiao Yi’s face held a smile, but his eyes were as cold as ice.
"Brother Yi, please, let me go!" Sun Yue realized something was wrong. She thought that Xiao Yi didn’t know the details of the incident, but now she understood he knew very well and had simply not shown his hand yet.
Xiao Yi kicked away Sun Yue, who was clinging to his leg. He was utterly disgusted by this woman; from the first glance, he could see too much in her eyes. She tried to use her background to seduce him and even harbored senseless hatred toward Bai Yanwu. She forgot that it was Bai Shi who had driven Gao Ping away.
If Sun Yue truly hated anyone, the Bai Family should be second, Gao Ping first. But blinded by her own hatred, she committed acts that disgusted everyone again and again.
"Sun Yue, do you know? I find you very annoying!" Xiao Yi bent down, grabbed Sun Yue’s chin harshly, and applied so much force it almost seemed like he would crush her bones.
"Your disgust for me, is it because our fates are similar?" Sun Yue knew she couldn’t escape today; knowing Xiao Yi’s methods, she became even more composed, "We..."
Xiao Yi didn’t let Sun Yue finish her words when there was a "crack," and instantly, tears appeared on her face, her jaw dislocated by Xiao Yi.
"Do you know? A woman shouldn’t boast about how smart she is or how much she knows. If you had just honestly spoken about what you wanted to do, maybe someone would have helped you. Doing things behind the scenes really is..."
Xiao Yi patted Sun Yue’s face and then shook his head.
"Guo Bin, I don’t want to settle things with you today. Take care of this woman. I don’t want to see her again. As for Brother Qiang, what do you think? Should I find you another woman, or do you want to go with her?"
