The Words He Said

Ye Yuwei could not resist the urge to raise her head and look at Lu Qichuan who was still standing before her.

'Why is Mr. Lu always helping Mrs. Gu? Could it be a skeleton in the closet? Or is it a trick?'

Ye Yuwei suddenly sneered. Well, that was the reason Ye Yuwei was silent all this while. These people were just too despicable. 

Lu Qichuan turned his head and met her gaze.

"Look, I told you. As long as a group of dogs found the prey, they will never loosen their bites. They will bite it brutally, tear it apart, and swallow it. You cannot reason with mad dogs. They do not understand," Ye Yuwei said softly as if only for Lu Qichuan's ears.

Lu Qichuan regained his composure and smiled at Ye Yuwei.

"You are right. Like a dog always pouncing on the stool. They never see the good in people and always pick up something awful. Even if they could find nothing, they will still dig something awful elsewhere, rub it on others and lick it. Just like a dog."

They were singing the same tune and comparing the paparazzi to mad dogs. Hearing this, the paparazzi's face turned ghastly.

"Why are you still here? Do you want me to call a dog trainer to take you all away?" Lu Qichuan turned to look at the paparazzi.

"I am sorry to get you involved." Ye Yuwei laughed at herself after the paparazzi left.

"Remaining silent would no doubt stop these paparazzi from getting new attack points, but it will not stop them from attacking you. Why are you still keeping silent?" Lu Qichuan sat down again and looked at the girl on the bed.

"If I retaliate, it will be endless torture. I just want to put all of these to an end," Ye Yuwei whispered.

"Do you really want to leave Brother Gu?" Lu Qichuan was slightly startled. Gu Juexi would never let her go.

Ye Yuwei lowered her head.

Lu Qichuan stopped asking.

Reaching home, Gu Juexi knew nothing about the incident in hospital. Gu Juexi saw the box full of Ye Yuwei belongings in the bedroom. An ineffable sensation of irritability filled him.

In a rage, he kicked the suitcase, which fell open. His cold gaze swept across her belongings in disdain. 'She is really good at nothing and even her suitcase is inferior.'

When he walked near the bed, a notebook slipped out of the suitcase. His eyes narrowed, he bent over to pick it up. It was a cheap notebook with cartoon designs and probably cost nothing more than two dollars.

Gu Juexi subconsciously opened the notebook and was surprised by the very first page.

A signature and a line of words fell within his sight. It was his signature.

'A company with integrity will never collapse.'

'I remember that Mr. Gu said this before. A company with integrity will never collapse.' Her voice filled with admiration towards seemed to have awoken something in him. She remembered the words that even he, himself, did not seem to remember.
