At this moment, Gu Zeyun was seen clenching his fists tightly, with veins bulging on the back of his hands. It was obvious that he was trying his best to suppress the surging anger in his heart.
He had finally managed to convince Xie Qi to stay in the company. If all this came to nothing because of Lu Yichuan's words, how could he not be angry.
Gu Zeyun took a deep breath, suppressing his impending outburst of emotion. He slowly turned his head and spoke to Xie Qi in a gentle, somewhat helpless tone, as best he could, like a superior: "Xiao Xie, do you see? This is the cruelty of business. He's trying to sow discord between us."
Xie Qi listened to his words quietly, without much expression on his face, but he never said a word. He just stood there silently, with no intention of leaving the room.
Seeing that Xie Qi did not leave, Gu Zeyun thought that Xie Qi believed what he said, and he finally felt relieved.
Then, he turned his head again, his eyes fixed on Gu Ze'an like a burning flame. He gritted his teeth and said, "If you don't want that piece of land, I don't think there's any need to continue this conversation today."
Hearing this, Gu Ze'an pursed his lips slightly, glanced at Xie Qi with complicated eyes, and then stopped looking at him. Instead, he responded coldly: "What conditions do you want?"
As soon as Gu Ze'an finished speaking, Gu Zeyun, who was sitting on the sofa, showed a triumphant smile and said slowly, "You also know that the third son of the Liu family is deeply in love with you. As long as you agree to marry into the Liu family, then that piece of land will naturally belong to you."
Hearing this, Lu Yichuan slammed the table in front of him in anger, almost knocking over the teacup on the table. He widened his eyes and shouted at Gu Zeyun, "Gu Zeyun! Don't go too far!"
Faced with such accusations, Gu Zeyun raised his chin with disdain, a mocking smile on his lips, and responded: "I'm going too far? I'm doing this for big brother's own good. You're 28 this year. Which Alpha would want you? Is it your blessing that the Liu family likes you, or do you want to live with inhibitors for the rest of your life? Don't be silly, omegas shouldn't show up in public. Marriage can still prove that you are useful...ah..."
Before he could finish his torrent of words, Gu Zeyun screamed and flew off the left side of the sofa. His head hit the hard ground and he instantly lost consciousness and fainted.
At this moment, Gu Ze'an and Lu Yichuan, who were sitting opposite on the sofa, saw the whole process clearly.
They witnessed Xie Qi's leg sweep over the sofa and land an unerring kick on Gu Zeyun's neck. The kick was so powerful that it sent Gu Zeyun flying off the sofa.
At this moment, Xie Qi narrowed his eyes slightly, revealing an extremely cold look in his eyes. He stared at Gu Zeyun who was lying unconscious on the ground, cursing in his heart: "How dare you force my wife to marry someone else in front of me? Do you want to die?"
However, when Xie Qi came back to his senses from his anger, he suddenly realized that his previous actions had attracted the attention of Gu Ze'an and the other person opposite him.
He looked at Gu Ze'an awkwardly, his lips trembling a few times, and finally he mustered up the courage to explain: "Sir, I didn't mean to do that. I just couldn't help myself when I heard this guy forcing you."
Gu Ze'an first looked at Xie Qi deeply, as if he wanted to see through his eyes to see his true thoughts.
Then he slowly stood up from the sofa and walked towards the unconscious Gu Zeyun with steady steps. When he got closer, Gu Ze'an stretched out his right hand and placed it under Gu Zeyun's nose to test it.
Afterwards, Gu Ze'an stood up and breathed a long sigh of relief. He turned to Xie Qi and said, "Don't worry, he just fainted."
After Gu Ze'an finished speaking, Xie Qi walked up to him, stretched out his arms without hesitation, and hugged his slender waist tightly.
Then, Xie Qi gazed into Gu Ze'an's eyes lovingly and said softly, "Sir, don't go for the marriage! I will be your inhibitor for the rest of my life."
Faced with such a sincere and passionate confession, Gu Ze'an's heart softened and he responded, "Don't worry, I won't choose the path of marriage. But, you, don't work here anymore. That Gu Zeyun is not a good person."
"Okay, I'll listen to you, sir."
Just as the two were immersed in love and expressing their feelings to each other, Lu Yichuan on the other side had quickly helped Gu Zeyun, who had fainted on the ground, up, placed him back on the sofa beside him, and carefully adjusted his position.
Immediately, Lu Yichuan turned and walked straight towards the two people who were still being intimate. He grabbed their arms without saying anything and urged them urgently, "You two, stop being so affectionate! Run! If this guy wakes up and calls the police, we'll be in big trouble!"
However, Xie Qi remained calm and unfazed by Lu Yichuan's words. He had already had 948 destroy all the surveillance equipment in the room. Even if Gu Zeyun did call the police, they would be unable to obtain any valid evidence.
Moreover, the injury Gu Zeyun suffered this time was only a mild concussion, and it would probably not take long for him to wake up from his brief coma.
When the three people who had walked out of the waiting room appeared in everyone's sight, although they appeared calm on the surface, they were actually terribly guilty. After all, they had just knocked the president of Gu Group unconscious.
When Gu Zeyun's secretary came to see his boss, he found that not only Gu Ze'an and others were missing, but even Xie Qi was nowhere to be seen.
What made the secretary even more confused was that he received a message from Xie Qi, which clearly read: "I quit!"
At this time, the only person in the room was Gu Zeyun, who was gradually waking up from his coma. He slowly opened his eyes and felt a burst of pain, especially the severe pain in his neck and head, which was almost unbearable.
Meanwhile, Xie Qi and the other two finally arrived at the gate of the Gu Group. The moment they stepped out, Lu Yichuan felt as if a heavy burden had been lifted from his shoulders, and he let out a long, pent-up breath.
However, Lu Yichuan did not hesitate to grab the other two people beside him and rushed straight to the basement.
Soon they arrived at the car parked in the corner of the basement. Without any hesitation, Lu Yichuan opened the door and got into the driver's seat first, followed by the other two.
