Upon hearing Huang Xi's words, Gu Liyan rolled her eyes and glared at Huang Xi, refusing to look at her again.

Seeing Gu Liyan roll his eyes so expressively, Huang Xi cheered excitedly, "Wow, so tsundere, so cute! It's just like me!"

Qingqing pouted. At first, she also thought Gu Liyan was cute! However, after getting to know him and seeing his true form, she was 100% certain that he was definitely not cute, but a big liar and a scheming man!

Gu Liyan glanced at Qingqing's displeased expression, a slight smile playing on his lips, and swaggered inside.

Seeing Gu Liyan crawl in, Huang Xi looked at him with envy: "Wow! I wish I could turn into a dog! With a body like that, I could move freely in and out of this cage and leave this damn cell."

As Huang Xi spoke, she squatted down and reached out her hand to Gu Liyan, "Come here, little puppy, come here and let me hug you!"

Gu Liyan glared at Huang Xi, then turned his head and went straight to Qingqing's feet, obediently rubbing against her feet while looking at Qingqing in a cute way.

Qingqing glared at him with disgust and kicked Gu Liyan in the stomach with considerable force, sending him flying to the side.

Gu Liyan stumbled and almost fell. He looked up at Qingqing with a pitiful expression, but the latter, instead of realizing it, glared back at him.

Gu Liyan lowered his head timidly and crawled on the ground, not daring to take another step forward. His pitiful expression was truly heartbreaking.

"Oh dear, Qingqing, how could you lay a hand on me!" Huang Xi couldn't help but scold Qingqing when she saw Gu Liyan's pitiful appearance, while comforting Gu Liyan:

"This noble dog is more pampered than a person! And look at it, its fur is pure white, and its appearance is handsome; it must be a high-breed dog!"

Qingqing rolled her eyes, pouted angrily, and explained with gestures: I didn't lay a hand on you, I just moved my foot!

"Oh dear, how can you not be considerate of small animals? What if you kick and hurt them? If you keep being so rude, you'll never be able to get married! Nowadays, boys prefer gentle and considerate women," Green Embroidery said with a smile.

Hearing Lüxiu's words, Qingqing suddenly remembered that Gu Liyan had been seriously injured not long ago and probably hadn't recovered yet. Thinking about the force of her kick just now, it seemed she had gone a bit too far!

Gu Liyan noticed the change in Qingqing's gaze and became bolder. He cautiously approached Qingqing step by step and raised his paw to rub against her instep.

Just as Qingqing was about to squat down to respond to Gu Liyan, Hongling, who was hiding to the side, spoke up with a look of disgust, "Animals are all very dirty, you'd better stay away from them!"

Gu Liyan frowned slightly as he looked at Hong Ling. Seemingly sensing Gu Liyan's overly human-like gaze, Hong Ling immediately flew into a rage, "What are you looking at, you beast? Haven't you ever seen such a beautiful woman as me before?!"

Gu Liyan turned his head away. He couldn't be bothered to even glance at this proud and arrogant woman. He only had eyes for Qingqing.

Qingqing felt bad after hearing Hongling's words. After all, Gu Liyan could transform into human form, so calling him a beast was really too much.

Before she could even speak up for Gu Liyan, Huang Xi immediately objected, "I don't think it's a big deal. Look how clean this little dog is, it can't possibly be that dirty! Besides, our cells are pretty dirty too, this is nothing, right?"

Hearing Huang Xi talk back, Hong Ling immediately retorted angrily, "Huang Xi, I'm doing this for your own good, you'd better listen to me!"

Huang Xi pouted and muttered under her breath, "If you really care about me, then hurry up and let me out. I don't want to suffer here!"

Hongling heard this clearly and immediately pointed at Huang Xi in a fit of rage, "Then you'd better listen to me obediently, or I won't take you out!"

Threatened by Hong Ling, Huang Xi immediately lost her temper. "What? Do you think I can't get out without you? If you're so capable, then get Duan Tianqi, the Prince of Duan, to release you right now! It's just that they didn't care about your background; they were just treating you like a fool and making fun of you!"

"Huang Xi!" Hong Ling clenched her fists in anger, ready to strike.

Cheng Xi, who was standing to the side, couldn't stand it anymore and rolled up her sleeves, saying, "If you want to fight, I'll play along!"

Seeing that Cheng Xi was helping him, Huang Xi became bolder and rolled up his sleeves, saying, "Come on! If you want to hit me, come and try!"

Hongling narrowed her eyes and coldly swept over the two of them, then fixed her gaze on Lüxiu. Lüxiu was immediately stunned, and after thinking for a moment, she stood directly beside Hongling.

After all, she felt that it was more reliable to get to know Duan Tianqi directly through Hongling.

Hongling and Lüxiu faced Chengxi and Huangxi, creating a tense situation. However, the four of them did not make a move directly, but instead turned their attention to Qingqing.

Qingqing blinked and looked at the four of them. Without thinking much, she took a step back and did not join any faction.

Seeing this, the four women smiled smugly, all believing that their team could win in a two-on-two situation!

Just as the four of them were about to start fighting, they suddenly heard a snapping sound. All five of them turned to look and saw Gu Liyan bite through the iron chains that bound the cage...

With a creak, the cell door, now free of chains, opened directly!

Everyone stared blankly at Gu Liyan, their expressions incredibly interesting.

"Great! We can go out now!" Green Embroidery exclaimed happily.

Without waiting for Hong Ling, she ran out. However, Cheng Xi and Huang Xi, who were confronting Hong Ling, showed no intention of backing down.
