Chapter 54: Persuasion

Looking at his departing back, Xu Xiaoyue held back her tears, which flowed out like beads from a broken string.

Gu Yichen felt upset at the moment, with mixed emotions. He didn't say anything, but just quietly accompanied her to calm her down.

Wang Jianhua was some distance away. He squinted his eyes and only saw Yan Ye walking away hurriedly, as if he was escaping.

Looking at the man walking towards them with a cold aura, Wang Jianhua's heart was in turmoil. He regretted it so much. If he had known earlier, he would not have rushed to go out on the mission with Yan Tuan. Now that he was faced with this situation, he was afraid that Yan Tuan would not be able to hold back and attack the pretty boy.

The good news is that Yan Tuan managed to hold back, the bad news is that Yan Tuan looked like he was going to hit him.

He was about to ask about the situation when Yan Ye stopped, a trace of fragility flashed in his eyes, and he said in a light voice: "I'm going back first, stay with her and don't let anyone bully her."

Wang Jianhua was afraid of angering the man, so he nodded quickly. The man raised his leg and left without looking back.

Wang Jianhua followed Xu Xiaoyue not far behind. Seeing her crying and sobbing, he sighed inwardly. They obviously had each other in their hearts, but they had to compete with each other, pushing each other further and further away. What was the point?

Lu Yi was watching from behind, shocked to the point of clicking his tongue. He really hadn't realized that Gu Yichen, this black sesame dumpling, was so capable that he could steal someone's girl right in front of her girlfriend.

He saw that the man's identity was not simple, and he brought a guard with him. Lu Yi now felt a chill on the back of his neck.

Xu Xiaoyue cried for a while and gradually calmed down. Gu Yichen handed her a handkerchief at the right time, but she shook her head and refused to take it, casually wiping her tears with her sleeve.

Gu Yichen's eyes darkened, knowing full well that she was trying to avoid suspicion with him.

"Still shopping?" He smiled and asked politely, as if he didn't care at all about Xu Xiaoyue's behavior just now.

"Can we not go shopping?"

She choked to finish the sentence, and couldn't help sniffing. Her almond-shaped eyes were swollen like walnuts due to crying.

She didn't want to show her cowardly and embarrassing side, but she just blamed Yan Ye for doing such an excessive thing and yet he still rushed to talk to her.

Thinking of this, Xu Xiaoyue's dislike for men increased even more.

Gu Yichen really wanted to say no. He had finally seen a rift between the two people, and before he had the chance to intervene, he asked this unnecessary question, asking for trouble.

The man looked at her face and sighed as if to compromise, "Okay, then I'll take you back."

Lu Yi, who was following behind, was increasingly unable to understand their boss's actions, and he refused to give in when confronting the wife.

The two of them were alone at this time, and instead of going to the park cinema, they sent people home, pretending to be gentlemen.

Lu Yi sighed and shook his head. Wang Jianhua, who was following behind him, became even more alert when he saw this.

Xu Xiaoyue knew that Wang Jianhua was following behind her. She thought about it and decided to do the same as she had done before to fool Yan Ye, and asked Gu Yichen to take her to the alley on Lian Da Street.

After completing the task, Wang Jianhua went back and told Yan Ye exactly what he had seen.

Originally, he thought that Xu Xiaoyue had fallen in love with someone else, but he followed them all the way and their behavior did not seem to be out of line, so perhaps there was some misunderstanding.

Yan Ye remained silent for a long time. He stood up, put his big hand on the documents on the table, and said in a hoarse voice: "I know."

Wang Jianhua was just about to persuade him to be more positive, but his eyes turned and saw the man's fingers, which were covered with scratches and bleeding. It was so painful just to look at them.

"Hey, Yan Tuan, I think you are crazy because of a lesbian!" The man was so shocked that he couldn't speak clearly. He took a few steps forward to take a closer look at the wound.

The blood had already dried on the fingers, but one could still vaguely tell that it had happened not long ago.

Wang Jianhua really couldn't imagine that a cold, arrogant and self-reliant man like Yan Ye would vent so harshly over emotional matters.

How much force must be used to hit the wall to leave such a mark?

If someone had come to him two months ago and told him that Yan Tuanhui would do this for a female comrade, Wang Jianhua would have thought it was bullshit.

But the reality is so fucked up. When it comes to love, no one can explain it clearly.

"Your hand is like this, you have to go to the infirmary." Wang Jianhua said firmly.

The man only raised his eyelids and looked at the person in front of him who was shocked beyond words. He said nonchalantly, "Nothing else, you can leave."

"Leave? Where should I go? If I leave, you can continue to smash the wall, right?"

"There are plenty of beautiful women out there, but I'm ashamed of you for putting yourself in this situation just for a lesbian."

Wang Jianhua said, he glanced at Yan Ye, and continued to speak: "It's hard to find a three-legged toad, is it hard to find a two-legged woman? That Ruan Wei has liked you for so many years, what's wrong with her?"

He talked until his mouth was dry, but Yan Ye pretended not to hear him. He looked at the document in front of him without saying a word, and his attitude of getting rid of him was obvious.

"Either you go to the infirmary to get bandaged, or I will tell everyone in the regiment that you, Yan Ye, have fallen in love with a fickle and cheating woman." Seeing that Yan Ye didn't take it seriously, Wang Jianhua made a harsh remark.

Sure enough, the moment the words fell, he raised his head slightly, his face was as gloomy as a dark cloud, and his brows were furrowed.

"You dare!" These two simple words carried a hint of chill.

Wang Jianhua shrank his neck, and the next second he straightened his back, resisting the urge to look at the man's face. "See if I dare or not. Anyway, you don't care about yourself, so don't worry about how I ruin the reputation of lesbians."

"At worst, I'll just run 20 kilometers with a weight!" Wang Jianhua became more and more confident as he spoke.

Yan Ye stared at the man coldly for a long time. He could see that Wang Jianhua was not joking with him.

The man sighed and even looked down on himself. Xu Xiaoyue had clearly told him everything, and from now on their relationship was just strangers.

He is just cheap, and he has to worry about the reputation of a stranger.

Yan Ye stood up, walked past Wang Jianhua, looked at him with an ambiguous look, and said coldly, "I'll go bandage it. As for you, be prepared to carry the weight for 20 kilometers."

Wang Jianhua was dumbfounded. Isn't this even human language?

He even suspected that there was something wrong with his ears.

Shouldn't his words of genuine loyalty just now move people to their core and make them look at him differently from then on?

Good man, he should just let this guy fend for himself!
