Gu Niannian had no choice but to coax her.

  "Alright, alright. Don't be upset, don't be upset. Or else, how about you eat with me this month?" Gu Nian rubbed Ye Qianyao's hair. As the young mistress of the Gu family, she never had to worry about food or clothing expenses, and her pocket money was always abundant, so taking Ye Qianyao out for a meal wasn't a big deal at all. However, considering Ye Qianyao's stubborn temper, she didn't dare phrase it as a definitive statement.

  Ye Qianyao sniffled and rubbed her nose. "No need, I have money..." Her nasal voice was trembling. All these years, she had only made one true friend, Gu Nianian. She knew Gu Nianian cared about her. So she reached out to wipe away her tears, "I just feel wronged." As she spoke, she pouted, "Crying a little will make me feel better."

  Gu Xuan didn't press the issue, just patted her head. But when he took a closer look, he found that Ye Qianyou's mouth was red and slightly swollen, and he couldn't help but exclaim, "Ye Qianyou! You still dare to say you weren't bullied by An Ruxi's son?! Look at the state you're in! Tell me, did someone take advantage of you?!"

  As soon as she said that, Ye Qianyao immediately covered her mouth with her hand and then stretched out her hand to push away Gu Nian's fingers pointing at her, rushing in front of the mirror.

  In the mirror, a face full of youthful vitality was reflected. However, on this face, both eyes had bloodshot, the tip of the nose was slightly red, and the lips covered by hands were swollen beyond recognition. Ye Qianyou looked at her disheveled reflection in the mirror, feeling a wave of grievance in her heart, and almost shed tears.

  The result had not waited for her to cry when Gu Nian's mobile phone rang.

  "Ah, you're still muttering to yourself! You told me that Sunzi wasn't a good person when we were in Anruo, but you didn't listen! Letting someone take advantage of you isn't right? Did he bully you or something? He dared to lay hands on you, watch me break his legs! Dammit!"

  She happened to catch her when she was in a bad mood, so when Gu Nian Nian picked up the phone, he wasn't in a good tone either. "Hello! Who is it? Speak!"

  Ye Qianyao pouted, not daring to say a word. She didn't dare tell Gu Nian that this wasn't done by An You at the time, fearing that Gu Nian would go all out with that person. And that person... they were just ordinary people, not worth provoking him.

  "I'm going to your grandma's place! You still have the nerve to call me!" As soon as Gu Nian heard the voice on the other end of the phone, her temper flared up. "Scold you? What's wrong with scolding you?! You're just asking for it! Do you think Ye Qianyou has no one to protect her and can be bullied by you?! Your grandma!" Then she didn't know what the other person said, but it was clearly not something calming, which made Gu Nian's temper even bigger. "What did you do? You still dare ask what you did! An Ruxi, I'm warning you, if you ever dare to force Ye Qianyou to do anything again, I'll make sure you can't be a human being in the future!"

  Then she slammed the phone down, scrunched up her face and pinched Ye Qianyu's nose, starting to lecture her. "This scoundrel, daring to do but not dare to admit it. If I were to say so, just cut the Gordian knot, kick him out!"

  Ye Qianyao was also stunned by Gu Nian's majestic and overbearing aura, and could only nod blankly, not daring to say anything.

  After a while, Gu Nian's phone rang again. He pressed the answer button and shouted: "An Ruxi, are you done yet?!"

  "Ye Qianyao's phone is not on! I'm right under your dormitory building, let her come down and see me!" Then, without waiting for the other person to say another word, the call was cut off.

  Gu Niannian stared at her phone screen for a long time before finally spitting out two words: "Damn it!"
