“How impressive is he?” Li Beinian asked.
Gu Mingye gave her a meaningful glance. “He was once brought to the P.I.T headquarters, but not only was he unharmed, he even got along with Peter. He became a hostage of Guo Nation and our Chief was ordered to rescue him. In the end, when he reached, he realized that man was treated well and was served good wine and meat.”
P.I.T was an international mercenary organization that Bei Lun and Ying Jieer belonged to.
Li Beinian shuddered. Her impression of Jiang Yeqing changed drastically. “He’s so despicable?”
Gu Mingye laughed. “Yes, he’s that despicable. He did even more despicable things.”
Li Beinian waited as he wrote something down.
“There was this once the Chief was surrounded. Almost all of the P.I.T members hated him and he was almost killed there and then. In the end, Jiang Yeqing quietly released him and led him out to escape.”
Li Beinian was stunned. “Why?”
“That guy arrogantly said something like he was not a traitor and only deceived the Chief for show and a stop-gap measure.”
“Do you believe this sort of rubbish?”
“Of course not. That’s why we caught him.” Gu Mingye drank some water and looked at Mu Xichen. “The Chief personally beat him up, but then that guy was beaten to a pulp and he almost could not stand up. He kept saying that Chief owed him one.”
“How shameless!” Li Beinian could not help but exclaim. “Return a favor? He should feel lucky that he wasn’t beaten to death.”
“I thought the same.” Gu Mingye glanced at Mu Xichen. “However, some people actually believed his stop-gap measure rubbish and let him go.”
“Just like that?”
“If not, should we beat him to death?” Gu Mingye put down his teacup in dissatisfaction. “No matter what, he’s a fellow countryman. No matter how miserable the situation he puts us in, we can’t exactly kill him.”
Li Beinian became annoyed after hearing his story. She glanced at Mu Xichen. “Are you going to the place he asked you to meet him at?”
“Yes.” Mu Xichen faintly responded. “The Yanzhou situation is really quite troublesome.”
Gu Mingye’s eyes lit up. “That guy wants to take over?”
However, very quickly, Gu Mingye restrained his excitement. “What does he want?”
“Jiangdu Waterfront.”
“Please, I just know that guy will demand an exorbitant price,” Gu Mingye said in irritation. “We should have hacked him to death at that time.”
Mu Xichen glanced at him with deep and quiet eyes. Slowly, he responded, “It’s ok.”
It’s ok.
Li Beinian heard him say these words less than ten times.
Every time she heard them, they always sounded different.
At this moment, he looked dignified and calm as if he were in a superior position.
Unknowingly, Li Beinian stole a few more glances.
Sensing it, Mu Xichen raised his eyes and met her gaze.
In an instant, two pairs of eyes met.
His eyes were as vast as the night sky as if it contained all of the beauty in the world.
Unexpectedly, Li Beinian’s heart fluttered and she quickly lowered her head.
She lifted her teacup to take a sip as her heart raced.
After they finished eating, it was still sunny outside.
Such good weather made people easily feel sleepy.
After seeing Li Beinian yawn, Mu Xichen said, “You should go back.”
“Ok.” Gu Mingye started the car. Before he drove out of the block, he suddenly heard Li Beinian shout. “Stop for a while!”
Li Beinian winded down the car window and looked out.
She saw a familiar slim and tall figure.
She could not help but exclaim. “Chi Hailang?”
Mu Xichen followed her gaze. Chi Hailang was currently hugging and kissing a girl pa.s.sionately in a corner of the street.
