Chapter 523: Chapter 524: Utterly Unprincipled, Repeatedly Indulging
“It’s okay,” Gu Junzhu patted her head with a grin, “Don’t worry, before they find us to settle the score, someone else will be looking to settle with them.”
“…” Ye Xingbei suddenly felt an intellectual gap: “What do you mean by that? Are you up to no good again?”
Fifth Lord of Gu put away his smile and proclaimed righteously: “Once a person of the state, always a person of the state! Even though I have retired now, I still carry the qualities of loyalty, integrity and bravery that our organization promotes. I only act justly and bravely, eliminate evil for the people, and never do anything bad. I guarantee with my past medals, that all I do is a great favor, it’s just that the bad guys don’t appreciate it.”
“…” Ye Xingbei laughed.
If these words had come from Fang Yao, she would have believed them without hesitation.
But no matter whether those words were spoken by Fifth Lord of Gu or Qiao Zui, she wouldn’t trust them.
With a heart like honeycombed coal, both dark and hollowed out, her image of heroes with integrity and perseverance had never been like this!
She looked down to Shi Qianying, considering what to say next, when Gu Chi strode in: “Young Master, Young Madam, the Young Master of Shi family, Shi Shijun, and Young Master Ye have arrived.”
Ye Xingbei furrowed her brows: “Brother Lan is here?”
Gu Junzhu smirked: “Not bad, they’re not completely stupid, at least they can find their way here.”
“Right,” Ye Xingbei turned to look at Gu Junzhu: “They’ve found out that you moved Shi Qianying here, and have come to demand her back, haven’t they?”
Gu Junzhu smiled slightly, “If they want her, they can have her. We’re not a rubbish dump. We were planning to return her in the first place. If they come to us, we can even save a sack and some gasoline.”
“…”, Ye Xingbei looked down at Shi Qianying: “They won’t let it go, seeing Shi Qianying turned into this.”
“Don’t worry,” Gu Junzhu smiled faintly, “They are not the only ones who can’t let it go.”
Ye Xingbei looked at Gu Junzhu with full of confusion, although Fifth Lord of Gu laughed nobly and regally, she saw the devilish wings flapping behind him.
She didn’t know who would be the next to suffer misfortune.
Such pity!
Gu Junzhu and Ye Xingbei went back to the living room.
Not only Shi Shijun and Ye Xinglan had arrived, but also Shi Qianying’s sister, Shi Qianling.
Seeing Gu Junzhu and Ye Xingbei walk into the living room, Shi Qianling was the first to stand up, rushed to Ye Xingbei, “Beibei, where is Xiao Ying?”
Despite her anxious look, she still maintained a poised and graceful demeanor, her voice as gentle as running water.
If Ye Xingbei had not appeared, Shi Qianling would always have been Y Country’s most beautiful woman.
Unfortunately, five years ago, Ye Xingbei was brought into Y Country by Ye Xingli, and ever since then, Shi Qianling’s position as the most beautiful woman had been disputed.
Some argued that Ye Xingbei was more beautiful than Shi Qianling and should be considered the most beautiful woman.
Others claimed that Ye Xingbei, being non-native to Y Country and of humble origin, cannot be compared to Shi Qianling.
Regardless of the controversy, everyone agreed on one point, Ye Xingbei was more beautiful than Shi Qianling.
No one could criticize Ye Xingbei’s appearance, as anyone with eyes could see that Ye Xingbei was more attractive than Shi Qianling.
All they could do was to attack Ye Xingbei’s origins.
Ye Xingbei looked at Ye Xinglan.
Perhaps this was the so-called challenge of a hero not being able to resist a beauty.
Her brother Lan was somewhat cold-blooded, yet he was exceptionally lenient when it comes to Shi Qianling, letting her do as she pleased.
