He looked at Gu Junzhu and Ye Xingbei in disbelief.

How… how is this possible?

By the time he came back to his senses, Gu Junzhu had already walked far away with Ye Xingbei and the two children.

Li Qi: “…”

Indeed, that was the style of the Fifth Young Master of the Gu Family; he didn’t give him any face at all!

Xie Jinfei said sympathetically as he patted his shoulder, “Our Fifth Brother has never been too friendly towards dandies, Xiao Qi, you have my condolences.”

Li Qi: “…”

Aren’t you supposed to be comforting me? Are you sure you’re not just adding insult to injury???

Xie Jinfei, happy about his successful jab, exchanged greetings with Li Qi and left with Xie Yunlin.

Li Qi stared blankly in the direction they had left.

Xie Motong stood behind him, also looking in the direction where Xie Jinfei and the others had departed, her heart trembling and shivering.

All of a sudden, the question she had been puzzled about found its answer.

Before that night, she had wondered why the Seventh Young Master of the Li Family, who had always stayed away from women, suddenly took an interest in her and made her his woman.

And there were also those strange questions Li Qi asked her when they first met at the bar, what was the meaning behind them.

Now, she understood everything.

She was a stand-in for Ye Xingbei.

The reason Li Qi broke his discipline and took her as his woman was because she bore a resemblance to Ye Xingbei.

The strange questions Li Qi had asked her, to which she had no answers—if it had been Ye Xingbei, she could have answered them all.

All of a sudden, it occurred to her—what if Li Qi found out it was because she had schemed against Ye Xingbei with her sister that she was expelled from the Xie Family? Would Li Qi still want her?

After leaving the Xie Family, it was when she met Li Qi that she started to have a stable life.

Although Li Qi had many torturous quirks, she could at least ensure the high standard of living she had enjoyed in the Xie Family while being by his side.

Beyond being less than gentle in bed and having a liking for making her kneel, for other matters, Li Qi was always generous to her.

She was even looking forward to having Li Qi’s child and becoming the Seventh Young Madam of the Li Family, to firmly establish herself in the Li Family and change her fate.

But now…

Seeing how excited Li Qi was when he recognized Ye Xingbei, she knew that he regarded Ye Xingbei very highly.

If Li Qi knew that she and Ye Xingbei were sworn enemies…

Despite the hotel’s year-round spring-like temperature and the pleasant warmth, she felt cold all over, as if she had fallen into an ice pit.

After leaving the hotel, Gu Junzhu, Ye Xingbei, Xie Yunlin, and Xie Jinfei went their separate ways.

Everyone headed home.

After returning to the large courtyard and settling the two children, Gu Junzhu and Ye Xingbei went back to their own room.

After taking a shower, they lay in bed, and Gu Junzhu embraced Ye Xingbei, pinching her cheek: “Ye Xiaobei, confess, how many people have you actually saved?”

“I haven’t really saved that many people,” Ye Xingbei said innocently, “Strictly speaking, I didn’t exactly save Li Qi. I just took him on a tour around the alleys of Jiang City, that’s all.”

“Ye Xiaobei, you’re quite modest,” Gu Junzhu clicked his tongue, “If it weren’t for you, Li Qi would have likely been captured that night, and by now he might have been wiped off the face of this earth.”

“Well, that’s good,” Ye Xiaobei shrugged her shoulders, “If it’s really like you said, and I saved a person’s life with a mere gesture, isn’t that great?”

“Great? What’s great about that?” Gu Junzhu pinched her nose and asked helplessly, “What were you thinking at the time? Wandering the streets in the middle of the night, running into vicious kidnappers, you didn’t think to run for your life, but you actually went and saved someone. Aren’t you afraid?”
