Ye Zhixue pressed her lips together. Was the eldest young master of the Lu family really here to vent his anger on their behalf just for that girl, Gu Qing?
She was deeply astonished. Gu Qing and Lu Jingyan had barely met. Why would he suddenly care about her so much? It didn't take a genius to realize that Lu Jingyan’s visit today was surely prompted by something Gu Qing had said to him after she ran away from home. At this thought, she gritted her teeth, feeling an even deeper loathing for that wretched girl.
Gu Yunfei’s expression was ghastly; he was filled with profound regret. Had he known things would escalate to this point, he never would have allowed Ye Zhixue to act so recklessly last night without considering the consequences. Regardless of whether Lu Jingyan had come because he cared for Gu Qing or simply to protect the Lu family’s reputation, it was clear that their treatment of Gu Qing had already provoked him. Unlike Ye Zhixue’s narrow-minded perspective, Gu Yunfei cared far more about family interests than whether or not Gu Ruo had been slighted.
