Ye Yuwei glanced behind her as she was pulled out of the restaurant by Gu Juexi.
They walked to the entrance of the alley where PA Wen and Xiao Yaojing were waiting for them. They walked out of the shadows when the two familiar faces showed up.
“Just now, I saw the owner go out. He hasn’t come back yet,” reported PA Wen.
Gu Juexi nodded. “To B City.”
“Now?” shouted Xiao Yaojing in disbelief.
Gu Juexi didn’t care for her response and immediately pulled Ye Yuwei into the car.
“Has he gone nuts?” Before Xiao Yaojing could finish her sentence, PA Wen pulled her into the car as well.
After they got into the car, Gu Juexi immediately made a phone call. Ye Yuwei didn’t dare to bother him.
Perhaps PA Wen was too familiar with his CEO’s out-of-the-box behavior because he had already packed his bags and brought it with him when they came out of the hotel, so now they could go straight to the city.
After a few minutes of driving, they found their road blocked intentionally. PA Wen slammed the brakes quickly and Xiao Yaojing shrieked in surprise.
Gu Juexi raised his hand to block Ye Yuwei’s forehead from hitting the seat in front of her.
“Wen Tao! What are you doing?” shouted Xiao Yaojing. When she looked up, she saw a row of men standing in front of their cars.
Gu Juexi watched those men skeptically and put away his phone.
“Doggone it! They still dare to come?” Xiao Yaojing roared and wanted to get out of the car.
Gu Juexi told her to stop. “Don’t open the door. Wen Tao, keep driving.”
PA Wen nodded and started the car again. He reversed and exited through the other way. The group of men behind them quickly pursued from behind.
“CEO, who are those people?” asked PA Wen as he drove the car at maximum speed.
Ye Yuwei turned and looked at the cars chasing them anxiously. “Gu Juexi—”
Gu Juexi held her hands tighter to reassure her.
“He lured me here, he’s not gonna let me go so easily,” smirked Gu Juexi.
Ye Yuwei raised her head and looked at Gu Juexi in disbelief. “What do you mean? Did you know it was going to be dangerous here? Then why did you come?”
Ye Yuwei’s fury was obvious in her expression.
This guy was putting his own life on the line.
“…Then I don’t come, and have to depend on you three stooges?” Gu Juexi asked flatly.
Ye Yuwei kept silent.
“Can you be a bit more serious, please? Now you are a stooge with a hole on your body, do you understand?” Ye Yuwei asked irritatedly. “Do you think you are still the almighty Gu Juexi?”
“Am I not?” Gu Juexi drawled, leaning back in his seat and raising his brows. “Relax. I am here, I won’t let anything happen to you. Look at the sweat on your forehead. Any more water coming out of you and you won’t have anything left in your brain. Keep it cool.”
Ye Yuwei slapped his hand away, as if saying ‘I’m not talking to this crazy man right now’.
Although the car was going very fast with the pursuing cars following closely, Gu Juexi didn’t look nervous at all.
PA Wen was great behind the wheel but the speed made the ladies nauseated. They made their way onto the highway. The people who were tailgating them got even rougher and started shooting at them.
“Ah—” shrieked Ye Yuwei. Gu Juexi pressed her down into a bracing position. Xiao Yaojing stuffed herself under the seat as well.
“Gu Juexi, are you not armed?” shouted Xiao Yaojing.
“I am a good citizen,” replied Gu Juexi pleasantly. His hands pressed Ye Yuwei’s arms firmly, not letting her get up.
“Are you ever not full of yourself?” Xiao Yaojing groaned.
