A man with dazzling silver hair walked slowly to Guo Jiahe and Li Peiyu with a casual yet slightly roguish gait.

This man had exceptionally sharp eyes, as if he could see right through people's hearts. He also had a clearly visible tattoo of a string of letters on his neck, which was very striking under the light.

"Can you afford to pay for it?" The silver-haired man squatted down and asked simply, without any expression.

Guo Jiahe was so frightened that his mind went blank, and he just kept shaking his head, completely terrified.

"Don't be afraid, it's not much money, only 80 million," the man said slowly.

Eighty million? Hearing this number, Guo Jiahe felt her world collapsing. Li Peiyu was also bewildered. It was simply beyond her means to pay.

"Is there a country you like? I can send you there. You can pay me back when you've earned enough money, and then I'll bring you back." The silver-haired man continued speaking with a wicked smile, sending chills down one's spine.

"Or, you could ask any of the brothers here if there's anyone who's interested in you and willing to cover the cost for you," the silver-haired man's wicked voice rang out again.

"Come on, lift your head up and let all the brothers here take a good look at your face." The silver-haired man pulled Guo Jiahe's hair, making her lift her head to show everyone.

“It’s alright, I wouldn’t want it.” The other man said, making a disgusted face.

"I think that girl is pretty good. Who is she?" At this moment, another man's voice rang out, his eyes fixed on Li Peiyu.

Li Peiyu was immediately filled with terror. A terrible thought flashed through her mind: Could it be that she was to go to that dark and dreary brothel in place of Guo Jiahe?

"You're her friend, right? Did you come along to pay off her debts?" The silver-haired man's voice came again, carrying a probing tone.

Li Peiyu was so frightened that her face turned pale, and she didn't dare to open her mouth to answer. She was afraid that if she said the wrong word, it would bring terrible consequences.

"I think she's alright, but she's not worth 80 million," the man said unhurriedly, as if casually evaluating the value of a commodity.

"Since you brothers are unwilling to pay, then I'll have to make my sister set off for T country right now." The silver-haired man's tone suddenly turned fierce, and a cruel glint appeared in his eyes.

"No, no, let's talk this over. We'll find a way to pay you back," Li Peiyu hurriedly stopped them.

"Oh, little sister, you have a way to make money? Tell me about it?" The silver-haired man looked at Li Peiyu with a mocking expression, and even stroked her chin with his hand. Li Peiyu subconsciously dodged.

"I have over 4 million here. I'll give it to you if you let us leave. I'll figure out how to get the rest of the money."

"Little sister, you're quite wealthy, with four million. But you owe a lot; four million is just a drop in the bucket. I can't let you go."

Li Peiyu suppressed her panic. The silver-haired man kept saying "you all," was he going to sell her too?

The atmosphere was extremely tense.

"I'll pay eighty million." A deep, husky male voice suddenly came from the corner, instantly attracting everyone's attention.

Li Peiyu looked up at the sound and was filled with surprise. It was Lu Yuzhi!

However, his attire today was somewhat unusual.

Instead of his usual white shirt, he wore a dark shirt with white patterns. This gave Lu Yuzhi a unique and captivating charm.

She had never seen Lu Yuzhi dressed like this before; at this moment, he looked both mysterious and charming.

His right hand was blocking a beautiful woman in a red dress with a bare back.

Li Peiyu couldn't help but curse inwardly, "They're playing pretty fancy tricks."

Lu Yu gently pinched the woman's waist, and she let out a soft cry, "You're so annoying."

It was like deliberately provoking her.

Guo Jiahe quickly recognized Lu Yuzhi, and her eyes lit up with surprise, as if she had seen a ray of light in the darkness.

"Uncle, Uncle Lu, save me!" Guo Jiahe cried out urgently, his voice filled with hope and pleading.

Guo Jiahe's eyes were fixed on Lu Yuzhi, his face full of relief and excitement as if he had survived a disaster.

Lu Yu stared at Li Peiyu without moving, his gaze deep and focused, yet ambiguous.

I stared at it for a full minute.

Everyone understood from Lu Yuzhi's actions that President Lu had taken a liking to this girl with fair skin and long, slender legs.

Guo Jiahe was utterly shocked by Lu Yuzhi's blatantly inappropriate gaze. What did this mean? Gu Yan's father had taken a liking to Li Peiyu!

At this moment, the silver-haired man smiled obsequiously, his tone slightly ingratiating, and said, "It's truly rare that Brother Yu has taken a liking to you."

Then, he smiled maliciously at Li Peiyu and said, "It's your good fortune to be favored by Brother Yu, little sister. Why don't you go and give Brother Yu a kiss?"

The crowd burst into laughter, watching Li Peiyu's reaction like it was a show.

Li Peiyu stood there stunned with her head down, not daring to step forward. Guo Jiahe nudged her and whispered, "Peiyu, help me."

"What are you still standing there for?" The silver-haired man pulled Li Peiyu's arm and brought her to Lu Yuzhi's side. "Little sister, hurry up and give him a kiss, otherwise if Brother Yu changes his mind, you'll have to go to Thailand to suffer."

"Oh, oh, oh."

While everyone else was egging him on, Guo Jiahe pleaded with Li Peiyu with his eyes.

Li Peiyu leaned down shyly, getting close to Lu Yuzhi's face. Although they had done countless things more intimate than this, kissing him in public was a first for them.
