CHAPTER 506: CHAPTER 312: HE’S TOO IMPATIENT

Chu Ge stood up again and walked over to Old Five, tears swirling in her eyes, "Brother Five, look, you’ve also slapped me to vent your anger, can we just let today’s incident go, please?"

"Let it go? Can it just be let go?" Old Five pointed at Chu Ge’s nose, speaking fiercely, "What are you worth? In consideration of Third Brother’s face, go and attend to him now! Mind your own business about Old Five’s matters!"

Chu Ge glanced at Third Brother and coquettishly said, "Third Brother, say something, won’t you?"

Third Brother sighed, "Just do as Old Five says!"

Ji Su realized that all these people were scum, and given the circumstances, she too had endangered Chu Ge; it was certain that Chu Ge wouldn’t escape their bullying.

Chu Ge’s mental fortitude was not bad. She walked over to Third Brother, still tilting her half-bruised face upward, and coquettishly said, "Third Brother, you know, we can drink and chat, but that doesn’t involve..."

"Then you and your friend can’t leave today, and don’t blame me!" Third Brother snorted cunningly.

"Third Brother..." When Chu Ge wanted to plead further, Third Brother suddenly changed his expression, "Don’t take the face given to you for granted..."

"Please, Third Brother..." Chu Ge tried to run, but she was caught by Third Brother.

And Ji Su’s situation was no better, Old Five had been eyeing her all along!

In a burst of quick thinking, Ji Su didn’t know why, but she managed to break free from Old Five and instinctively stood at Gu Yucheng’s side without a second thought.

Old Five’s men paused when they saw her go to the always silent Gu Yucheng.

Gu Yucheng seemed to be an outsider to the situation, unfazed by everything that just happened.

He held a glass of wine, with no change in his gaze, and his pose unchanged, sipping his drink seemingly nonchalantly.

Since he did not react, Old Five boldened and reached out to pull Ji Su.

Ji Su got desperate and turned towards Gu Yucheng, "Gu Yucheng, what do you want?"

Gu Yucheng gave her a cursory glance, did she really think he orchestrated this show? In reality, he was just a spectator, not knowing about these men signing contracts, simply encountering Third Brother and coming in for a drink!

Seeing he wasn’t speaking up, Ji Su kicked out at him, "Are you going to keep treating me this way?"

Regarding Gu Yucheng’s love life, probably not many people in City A knew, as he always kept a cold and low profile, dubbed as the King of Hell in business.

Indeed, there are no known women who dare to treat him like this!

Ji Su proceeded to hit and kick, "Gu Yucheng, are you really going to keep treating me this way?"

Gu Yucheng gripped her wrist with one hand, gazing intently at this frantic woman, then said to the other men, "Let them go!"

Chu Ge immediately ran to Ji Su’s side, "Ji Su, let’s go!"

After Ji Su and Chu Ge left, Ji Su bought some ice for Chu Ge to apply to her face, "I’m really sorry for what they did to you today."

Chu Ge glanced at her, "You really have quite the temper, daring to strike out and hit someone!"

Ji Su sighed, "I might really not be cut out for this kind of work! It’s just that you got dragged into this mess because of me."

"Are you familiar with Gu Yucheng?" asked Chu Ge.

Ji Su paused, "Sort of familiar."

Chu Ge perked up, "Is he single? Or married?"

"What? Do you like him?" Ji Su joked.

Chu Ge laughed, "Sort of! The moment we walked in, he was the most special one. A man like him would never take advantage of women!"

Ji Su: "..."

To say that a man like Gu Yucheng would never take advantage of women, Ji Su believed. However, if one were to offend a man like Gu Yucheng, it would be the women who would suffer.

Like herself...

"How about, you introduce him next time," suggested Chu Ge.

"No problem," Ji Su nodded, moved by Chu Ge’s desperate efforts to protect Ji Su today. Ji Su would definitely introduce Gu Yucheng to Chu Ge.

Ji Su returned home that evening, feeling extremely weary. Over the years, she had been a freeloader, always dependent on Gu Yucheng to provide for her and her mother.

Thinking of her mother, Ji Su’s heart soured; if it weren’t for her mother’s gambling habits, losing money, and someone’s scheme making her steal Gu Yucheng’s business secrets, perhaps she and Gu Yucheng wouldn’t have ended up at this point.

Ji Su sat at the door, her tears uncontrollably falling down.

When Gu Yucheng returned home, he saw her sitting at the doorstep, not having gone inside.
