Chapter 12 : An eye for an eye

“I’m not going.” Yan Xi rejected Luo Yun’s suggestion without thinking.

According to the Host’s memory. If she went up to change her clothes, she would definitely get beaten and scolded.

Luo Yun gently asked, “Why are you not coming, Xi? You’ll get sick if you don’t change. I don’t want you to be sick for the next few days at home.”

With that, she shot a look at the bodyguard beside her.

They walked to Yan Xi and surrounded her tightly.

“Let’s go, miss.”

Yan Xi could feel something against her back. She smiled at Luo Yun.

“Thank you for your kindness, Mother.”

After leaving everyone’s sight, Luo Yun’s expression changed. She looked at Yan Xi in disgust.

“Little b*tch, what did you do to my daughter?”

“You’re done pretending?” Yan Xi went away from the bodyguards behind her. “I didn’t do anything. If you can’t educate your child well, I’ll help you educate her and let her know what it means to cherish food.”

“Mom.” Yan Qi was still crying. “She hit me many times just now.”

Luo Yun’s face was cold. “Mommy will avenge you.”

Her hand was raised high, but it was grabbed before it could land.

Yan Xi gave Luo Yun a slap on the face.

Luo Yun was struck dumb by the slap. Only after a while did she realize what had happened.

Yan Qi screamed at the side, “What are you guys waiting for? Grab this b*tch down! Grab her hand!”

“You dare?” Yan Xi was calm and composed. She scanned the bodyguards. “I’m the wife of the Gu family. If I’m hurt, the Gu family will never let you off!”

“Do you think you’re married to Gu Ting?” Luo Yun covered her face, her eyes vicious. “You’re married to that abandoned son, Gu Shen, a cripple! A cripple that the Gu family doesn’t even care about! Why should the Gu family help you seek justice!”

“Get this little b*tch on her knees. Don’t even think about leaving the Yan family today!”

Naturally, Yan Xi did not kneel. She kicked one of the bodyguards away and turned to run downstairs. Unexpectedly, there was one downstairs too. She was trapped in the middle and was stuck in a dilemma.

Yan Qi looked at her proudly. “Little b*tch, do you know what I am capable of now?”

…

On the way back, Gu Shen was a little tired, so he sat at the back and closed his eyes to rest.

After Gu Er picked up the phone, he then lowered the screen, saying, “”President Gu, there’s a call from Jin Sen. Someone else has taken a fancy to that piece of land.”

Gu Shen nodded and signaled for him to continue.

“Jin Sen wants to raise the price by at least three percentage points.”

“They’re asking for too much. Where’s the contract?”

“They said that if you are unwilling to pay more, they are willing to pay the penalty fee.”

Gu Shen finally opened his eyes. His eyes were cold and vicious, vaguely revealing killing intent.

“They are trying to shut me up with a little penalty fee? Tell Gu Wu to do as he deems fit. It’s fine as long as they don’t die,” he said calmly.

“Yes.”

“One more thing. It’s about Madam.” The assistant spoke again with a strange expression. “Madam and the Yan family are in a fight.”

Gu Shen looked up. “Did she win or lose?”

“So far, she seems to be winning. However, the Yan family has the advantage in numbers. Madam is still at a disadvantage.”

Gu Shen giggled, surprised at how bald his wife was to challenge them alone.

“Should I send someone to bring Madam back?” Gu Er asked tentatively.

Since Yan Xi was married to Gu Xi, she represented the Gu family, so she was always well-protected.

Gu Shen said, “No need.”
