Qiao Zui smacked him on the head, "A twisted psyche—what are you trying to understand?"
Yun Jue cried out in pain, rubbing the back of his head and muttering, "Isn’t it know yourself, know your enemy, and you’ll win every battle?"
"Her?" Qiao Zui scoffed disdainfully, a flash of murderous intent in his eyes, "Soone who’s not even worth as much as rats and cockroaches—do we really need to know ourselves and the enemy to deal with her?"
"Do you all have anything else?" An Keqing took several deep breaths, looked at Gu Junzhu and said, "If not, I need to go ho. My parents will worry if they find out I’ve gone missing."
Gu Junzhu nodded, "You can leave now. If there’s anything, we’ll contact you."
An Keqing curled her lips lightly, "About hurting your wife and Situ Jinse—I’ll give you an explanation."
After saying this, she turned and walked out.
Gu Junzhu instructed Gu Qi, "Have soone escort her."
Gu Qi nodded.
An Keqing walked to the entrance of the villa, where an SUV silently waited.
As she stepped outside, the car door opened, and a young man looked at her through the window, "Miss An, our master instructed to take you ho."
An Keqing hesitated briefly before stepping into the car.
The engine started.
She took out her phone and dialed Situ Lanyu’s number.
It took three tries for the call to connect, and Situ Lanyu’s voice, tinged with drunkenness and irritation, answered, "What do you want? Didn’t I tell you? If I don’t look for you, don’t contact !"
"The Gu Family just ca to find ," An Keqing said icily, "They’ve found out about how I injured Ye Xingbei."
"What?" Situ Lanyu’s hand trembled as she held her wine glass, causing it to fall to the ground and shatter into pieces.
She abruptly stood up, clutching her phone, and walked into the inner room.
After locking the door, she gripped her phone tightly and asked in a low voice, "Gu Junzhu’s people ca to find you? How? Didn’t you just bump into Ye Xingbei and then leave? How could they possibly trace you?"
"They reviewed the surveillance footage from the mall," An Keqing said coldly, "Where are you? I need to see you."
"What the hell for?" Situ Lanyu hissed angrily, "Do they know you have AIDS?"
Situ Lanyu’s heart trembled; a cold sweat broke out over her body.
She had believed that the task she assigned An Keqing was flawless, seamless, and undetectable, which was why she had dared to let An Keqing carry it out.
The mall was crowded, and sotis when people hurried, they’d bump into soone else, and an accidental scrape wouldn’t be unusual. Wasn’t that perfectly normal?
Were the Gu Family people crazy?
Why would they investigate such a trivial incident?
"They don’t know yet," An Keqing said, "Situ Lanyu, where are you? I need to see you."
"Go to hell!" Situ Lanyu relaxed slightly upon hearing that the Gu Family still didn’t know An Keqing had AIDS, and she cursed loudly, "Is it because you cut Ye Xingbei too deep that brainless Gu Junzhu is looking to avenge her?"
Her tone was as bitter as if she’d swallowed vats of vinegar.
She despised Ye Xingbei to the core.
She envied her and resented her deeply.
Ye Xingbei had everything that she longed for.
Beauty, wealth, status, and the love of the most outstanding man in Beijing.
The day the brazier flew toward Ye Xingbei, Gu Junzhu didn’t hesitate to shield her with his own body.
Ever since then, that scene often replayed in her mind.
Such an incredible man—rich, powerful, stunningly handso, and utterly devoted to Ye Xingbei—would rather hurt himself than let her co to harm.
