"Come on, let me perform a piece for you. Let me show you my acting skills." Guo Jiahe said proudly, eager to demonstrate his talent.
Guo Jiahe strode arrogantly, head held high, and approached Li Peiyu step by step.
"Hmph! You ungrateful wretch!" Guo Jiahe's sharp voice shattered the tranquility. She pointed at Li Peiyu, her eyes filled with disdain and arrogance. "Don't you even know your place? How dare you cause trouble in this mansion!"
Li Peiyu bit her lip, wanting to say something to add some drama to her role, but was forced back by Guo Jiahe's even sharper gaze.
"Let me tell you, in this manor, you have to abide by the rules! Don't think that just because you're pretty you can do whatever you want!" Guo Jiahe crossed her arms and raised her chin high. "As your head maid, it's my responsibility to teach you a lesson!"
She paced around Li Peiyu, each step seemingly carrying a heavy sense of oppression.
Li Peiyu was so frightened that she trembled a little.
"You better behave yourself from now on. If you dare to make another mistake, it won't be such a simple scolding!"
"Was my acting good?"
Li Peiyu said, "You, head maid, are simply playing yourself."
Laughter and cheers rose like waves, one higher than the next. The four of them were soon overcome by the intoxication, their consciousness gradually blurred, and before they knew it, they had fallen asleep on the soft sofa.
Li Peiyu tiptoed to the window, slowly pushed it open, and a cool night breeze blew in.
She gazed silently at the city lights outside, the neon signs flashing, the traffic flowing. Subconsciously, she reached up to touch the necklace around her neck, her mind filled with a myriad of thoughts and a surge of emotion.
Everything she has now was given to her by Lu Yu.
She can do whatever she wants, she can be arrogant and domineering, and he gave her that confidence.
Even the fact that she dared to gamble everything to start a business was because she subconsciously knew that Lu Yuzhi would be there to protect her.
Even if they are heavily in debt, Lu Yuzhi will take care of it.
Li Peiyu knew it was late, but she still couldn't help sending Lu Yuzhi a message: Thank you.
Lu Yuzhi was stunned and felt a little guilty when he saw the message.
He had just finished a phone call with his subordinates.
He was spying on her.
Monitor the movements of Yuxing Entertainment.
When he left in the morning, he kissed her and decided to keep an eye on her.
She said that Jiang Shuchen's song had been finalized, and then there would be all sorts of social engagements.
He knows the business world best.
Especially with such a beautiful face, it's hard for her not to be noticed.
He wanted to talk to her, but he knew her stubbornness and understood her desire to succeed.
She started her own business, also for his sake.
He couldn't bear to shatter her dream.
This was the only way he could protect her. He wanted to keep her under his watchful eye, ensuring no one would dare harm her.
He used to entrust almost everything to Qiao An, who had been with him for over ten years and was very reliable.
However, since Qiao An made a mistake last time, the task of monitoring Li Peiyu cannot be entrusted to her.
The person monitoring Li Peiyu just reported to him on the phone that Li Peiyu went to the Fifth Dimension and, together with Qi Juechen, dealt with Tian Yuan's boyfriend. Guo Jiahe acted in Director Zhou's TV series and returned today; moreover, her boyfriend is Yang Kai.
Qi Juechen's help to Li Peiyu indicates that he knows Li Peiyu is his woman. Meanwhile, Guo Jiahe has gotten together with Yang Kai. What's going on here?
Lu Yuzhi replied to Li Peiyu with a single line: "Everything I do is for your own good, so never hate me."
The moment it was sent, the second half of the sentence, "Never hate me," was deleted.
She's smart; she'll notice something's up.
Looking at Lu Yuzhi's reply, Li Peiyu thought, "What I do is for your own good."
I felt a surge of emotion and immediately sent it again:
You're the best to me.
Sleep well, goodnight kiss.
Bonus: a goodnight kiss emoji.
Lu Yuzhi: A Thousand Kissings
Afterwards, Lu Yu called Qi Juechen to inquire about the details of the matter.
Lu Yuzhi said in a deep voice, "Did Li Peiyu go to your place today?"
Qi Juechen answered cautiously, trembling with fear, "Yes."
"What is she going to do?" Lu Yuzhi's questioning voice grew increasingly sharp.
Qi Juechen was terrified and dared not hide anything, saying, "Let me teach this scoundrel a lesson."
"When did your relationship become so good?"
Qi Juechen sensed the doubt in Lu Yuzhi's tone, but he dared not tell the truth.
He dared not mention the day Yang Kai, instigated by Qiao An, kidnapped Li Peiyu. He only mumbled that when Li Peiyu came to visit, he happened to recognize the necklace around her neck.
Lu Yu was incredibly perceptive; Qi Juechen couldn't fool him at all.
Lu Yuzhi's expression was solemn, and he said coldly, "I'll give you one more chance. Say it again." His voice was like a cold wind in the night, sending chills down one's spine.
Knowing he couldn't hide it any longer, Qi Juechen had no choice but to bite the bullet and answer tremblingly, "A few days ago, Qiao An instigated Yang Kai to gang rape Li Peiyu, but I stopped him in time. We talked a lot that day and became familiar with each other."
When Lu Yuzhi heard that Qiao An was so audacious and disregarded him, his anger was instantly ignited. His eyes were icy, his hands unconsciously clenched into fists, and he exuded a chilling aura.
He really wanted to crush Joan's neck.
Lu Yuzhi's expression was solemn as he slowly asked, "What did you talk about that day?"
Qi Juechen whispered, "She asked me about your past."
"You said it?"
"Mm," Qi Juechen responded softly.
Upon hearing this answer, Lu Yuzhi frowned slightly, a complex expression appearing on his face.
She already knew everything.
His bleak past, his unspeakable background.
Lu Yu felt a vague unease.
He didn't want to reveal his shameful secrets to her. But she would find out sooner or later.
He couldn't bring himself to talk about the past.
It's better if Qi Juechen says it.
"Qiao An, what should we do?" Qi Juechen's voice trembled on the other end of the phone.
"Leave it for now," Lu Yuzhi said, suppressing his anger.
Guo Jiahe was able to film Director Zhou's TV series because Qiao An, through Yang Kai, recommended Director Zhou to Guo Jiahe.
Next, Qiao An will immediately throw out another piece of meat for Li Peiyu to bite.
If she dares to bite, Joan will slit her throat and bleed her.
How could he not know Qiao An's cunning?
But Li Peiyu desperately needed meat, and he needed Qiao An's help to get it for him, but cutting his throat was out of the question.
