Ye Qing looked at Gu Meng’s mocking expression, his expression cold. “She’s injured because of me. Is there a problem with me showing her some concern?”


  Hearing his words, Gu Meng’s eyes turned red. “If you care about her, go to her room. Why are you here?”


  She took a few steps forward and pushed the man standing at the door away, completely disregarding his status.

  She was born with strength and once she used her strength, even tall and strong men could not withstand it. Ye Qing was pushed out of the door and he staggered a few steps backward. If he had not held on to the wall in time, he might have fallen.

  He stabilized himself and turned back, glancing at Gu Meng in a slightly disheveled manner. “Why are you so barbaric?”


  Gu Meng laughed coldly. “Brutal? I was this savage the first day you met me!”


  Not wanting to say anything more to him, she slammed the door shut.

  Ye Qing stared at the closed door with furrowed eyebrows, his handsome face tensed as he swung his hand away and returned to the master bedroom with a dark expression.

  Jiang Qi opened the door slightly and saw the man who had returned to the bedroom angrily. She closed the door and leaned against the door frame. She took out her phone and sent a message……

  The next morning.

  Gu Meng asked the leader of the bodyguards for a set of bodyguard uniform. After changing, she disguised herself as Vivian and followed Ye Qing’s bodyguard to Ye Qing’s private plane.

  Ye Qing and Jiang Qi came up after ten minutes.

  After getting on the plane, Jiang Qi and Ye Qing sat together while Gu Meng and several other bodyguards sat on the other side.

  Ye Qing had not looked at Gu Meng since he got on the plane.

  He seemed to be still angry about her pushing him last night.

  It was a long flight of more than ten hours.

  Halfway through, the chef on the private plane prepared the dishes and placed them on the dining table.

  Ye Qing took Jiang Qi to the dining table while Gu Meng and the bodyguards sat at another table.

  While Gu Meng was eating, she heard Jiang Qi’s voice. “Your Highness, my hand still hurts a little. Can you ask the chef to cut the steak for me?”


  Gu Meng looked up at Ye Qing’s table and saw that after Ye Qing heard Jiang Qi’s words, he cut his steak and exchanged it with her. “Eat mine.”


  “Your Highness, how could I trouble you?”


  “It’s alright, you can eat!”


  Jiang Qi smiled brightly. As she was eating, she glanced in Gu Meng’s direction.

  Their eyes met.

  Gu Meng saw a disdainful smile in her eyes.

  Gu Meng looked down and poked the food on her plate ruthlessly.

  Pulling the chair out, she stormed towards the washroom.

  She pushed open the washroom door and was about to enter when a tall figure squeezed in.

  Gu Meng glared at the man who followed in. “Aren’t you afraid of being seen by the people outside?”


  “I only care about your feelings. What others think has nothing to do with me.”


  Gu Meng laughed coldly. “If you cared about my feelings, you wouldn’t be so considerate to a substitute!”


  Ye Qing furrowed his eyebrows. “Her arm is injured and she can’t cut the steak. I’m only giving her the cut steak as a gentleman.”


  “I’m afraid you’ll make the pretense real!”


  His expression darkened, a warning in his dark eyes. “Gu Meng, don’t challenge my patience again and again!”


  Gu Meng laughed coldly. “How long has it been? Your attitude toward me has changed? I’ve finally seen through you. You’re a scumbag! Once this matter is settled, I won’t be with you anymore!”


  A trace of sharpness flashed past Ye Qing’s dark eyes. “Don’t be unreasonable! Don’t you know how I treat you? You kept asking to leave me. I’ll feel that it’s meaningless if you do it too many times!”


  Tears filled Gu Meng’s eyes. “Fortunately, I didn’t fall for you again!”


  As if angered by her words, Ye Qing did not look at her anymore. He pulled open the door of the washroom and strode away.

  When Gu Meng went out of the washroom, her eyes were still slightly red.

  She glanced at Ye Qing, who was still eating at the dining table. He was talking to Jiang Qi, instructing her in a low voice.

  Gu Meng lay on the table, her appetite gone……

  It was already late at night when the plane arrived at Big Country.

  Two black business cars were waiting on the tarmac. They were Ye Qing’s pickups.

  According to the request, Gu Meng and another bodyguard sat in the car Ye Qing and Jiang Qi were in.

  Jiang Qi leaned close to Ye Qing, his voice soft. “Your Highness, don’t you think it’s quite cold here in Big Country?”


  Ye Qing glanced at Jiang Qi. He took off his coat and put it over her. “Are you feeling better?”


  Jiang Qi had not expected Ye Qing to be so considerate. He was different from the cold and indifferent man in the rumors. She was flattered. “Thank you, Your Highness.”


  Gu Meng could not help but glance behind, and she happened to see the shyness in Jiang Qi’s eyes.

  Gu Meng clenched her hands into fists and hit the car window hard.

  Hearing the noise, Ye Qing glanced at the woman in the front passenger seat, but looked away very quickly……

  The car drove for an hour before arriving at a small two-story bungalow in the suburbs.

  The yard of the bungalow was surrounded by a wooden fence and the yard was filled with flowers.

  The night breeze blew, and the flowers and plants exuded a refreshing scent.

  Ye Qing and the others got out of the car.

  “Your Highness, is the doctor who bribed K here?” Jiang Qi asked.

  Ye Qing gave a low hum in reply.

  Ye Qing raised his hand and pressed the doorbell.

  The sound of the doorbell was crisp in the silent air.

  After a few rings, the lights on the second floor of the bungalow were turned on. Not long after, a woman with a cane walked out.

  The woman looked to be in her fifties and was thin. When she came to open the door, she kept coughing and was panting.

  Looking at the people who appeared at the door, she furrowed her eyebrows and asked in confusion, “You are……” Before she could finish, her pupils constricted when she saw Jiang Qi beside Ye Qing.

  The woman wanted to close the door again, but Ye Qing took a step forward and pushed the door open, his expression cold. “Doctor Mary, aren’t you going to invite us in?”


  The woman glanced at Ye Qing. Her strength was no match for him, so she could only let go.

  She walked toward the yard with her cane.

  After entering the bungalow, the woman said, “Have a seat, I’ll go make some tea.”


  Ye Qing said coldly, “There’s no need for that. Doctor Mary, K has confessed. Back then, his life was on the line and you saved his life. In order to repay your kindness, he retired and you trusted him to assassinate Gu Meng for you!”


  The woman’s face was slightly pale. She glanced at Jiang Qi, who was beside Ye Qing. Jiang Qi made a secret gesture and the woman’s pupils constricted.

  She raised her hand and covered her mouth, coughing violently.

  As she coughed, her thin body suddenly fell to the ground like a broken kite, making a loud thud.

  Ye Qing stood up from the sofa and walked in front of the woman.

  The woman was no longer moving. Her eyes were open and blood slowly flowed out from the corner of her mouth.
