President Gu is good-looking and rich, and his character is probably passable.

It's just that mouth...

It would be even cooler if he could be poisoned into speech.

Xie Qingyu clearly sensed a faint hint of disdain in Bai Zhiwei's eyes.

Even the two debt collectors opposite him wore expressions that were hard to describe. "Damn it, are they crazy...?"

……

Another handsome and domineering CEO has been gently shattered.

I rely on!

Doesn't this meme exist in your world?

Waaaaah, I'm never playing with abstract concepts again.

First, nobody understands my humor.

Secondly, some people really do treat me like an idiot.

The person outside was furious and tried to pull the steel pipe back, but found that the steel pipe was as if it were embedded in cement, and he couldn't pull it out no matter what he did!

The man tried his best but couldn't budge it, and his expression changed.

How can this person be so strong?!

The other man glanced suspiciously at his sweating companion and demanded sharply, "What are you doing! Beat him up!!"

The man's face was flushed red; he had used all his strength, his teeth grinding together, and he managed to squeeze out a sentence through gritted teeth: "This kid's grip is too strong!"

"How big can it be! Let's see if his bones are harder than my steel pipe!"

Another steel pipe came crashing down on him, its force so great that it even made a whooshing sound.

If that stick hit someone, they'd either die or break a few bones!

Xie Qingyu's eyes narrowed, and he pulled Bai Zhiwei behind him, then snatched the steel pipe from her hand and clashed it with the steel pipe above her!

The two steel pipes collided with tremendous force, and the bald man outside felt his hand go numb from the impact!

He looked at Xie Qingyu with surprise and doubt. This man clearly didn't look strong! How could he be so powerful!

Before he could think any further, a kick landed squarely on his chest, sending the bald man flying two meters away. He leaned against the stairwell wall, groaning in agony.

Damn, we've run into a tough one!

Xie Qingyu stood by the door, holding a steel pipe, protecting Bai Zhiwei inside. His cold gaze fell on the other person who was dumbfounded.

His handsome, sharp features carried a strong sense of aggression; his eyebrows and eyes were as sharp as knives, and a ruthless light seemed to flash in his eyes.

It was as if the steel pipe in his hand would smash someone's head at any moment, drawing blood and causing death.

He stared intently at the thug's face, a wicked smile on his face, his tone icy, "You want to kick me too?"

"No, no, no, big brother, no need, no need..."

The man was so frightened that he didn't dare say anything more. He ran over and helped up the bald man who was still groaning, and the two of them ran away immediately.

I didn't dare say a word.

That guy inside is terrifying!

They're just collecting debts! But the guy inside looks like he's got several lives on his hands, damn it!!!

Xie Qingyu stood there like a gatekeeper, tall and elegant, watching them flee in disarray, his narrow eyes narrowed.

He appears unfathomable and unpredictable.

[Holy crap, did you see that, bro?! I'm so handsome!!! I'm fucking too handsome!!!]

Did you see that flying kick I just did?!?? I just flew up and kicked him several meters away with my long legs, hahaha!

[Second brother, do you have a video playback function? Did you record it for me? I feel like I could savor this moment for the rest of my life! This is absolutely the highlight of my life!!!]

My recent muscle-building workouts have paid off!! Opportunities are for those who are prepared!!

And I!! am the one who is prepared!!!

2222: […]

2222: [I don't even need to say anything to you, who was it that just frantically spent all their points on combat power???]

Xie Qingyu: [Second brother, sometimes seeing through things but not saying them is also a virtue.]

2222 Speechless, I ask the heavens.

As the male lead, Xie Qingyu already possesses top-notch physical qualities. Whether it's stamina, endurance, eight-pack abs, or body proportions, everything he has is top-notch.

Based on this, Xie Qingyu converted all the tens of thousands of points he had painstakingly accumulated recently into martial power, which was beyond description.

Xie Qingyu now felt his whole body brimming with vibrant energy!

Let me try having eighteen Arhats!

I feel incredibly strong right now!!!

The air was quiet; the farce that had just occurred seemed like an illusion.

Bai Zhiwei was stunned. She paused for a moment, then quickly walked over. "Mr. Gu, are you alright?"

Xie Qingyu calmed his wildly beating heart and said with a calm expression, "It's nothing."

He paused, took a moment to calm down, and then looked at Bai Zhiwei.

Do they come often?

Bai Zhiwei lowered her eyes and nodded gently, "Yes, it's fine when I stay in the school dormitory, but when I'm at home, they come over. If they hadn't said they needed to find a hospital, I wouldn't have asked you for help..."

The usually strong girl rarely showed such a vulnerable side, especially with the bright red handprint on her cheek, which Xie Qingyu couldn't bear to see.

He had been slapped by Xie Yan before, and it hurt a lot back then, but the slap mark wasn't as obvious as Bai Zhiwei's.

His sister was holding back when she beat him, unlike Bai Zhiwei's face, which was red and swollen, impossible to ignore.

Xie Qingyu lowered his brows. "Did they also do this to your face?"

"...They're not the same group, but they're also debt collectors."

Bai Zhiwei pursed her lips, her eyes, red as a rabbit's, timidly looking at Xie Qingyu, her tone full of uncertainty, "So, Mr. Gu, could you...?"

"Okay, okay, I'll transfer the money to you later."

Xie Qingyu agreed without hesitation. He glanced around and felt that the environment was really terrible.

"Go pack your things and come with me today. You don't need to stay here anymore."

Bai Zhiwei froze, her expression extremely firm. "President Gu, I will definitely repay the money in the future, so..."

So I don't want to go with you.

Mr. Gu has been professing his love to her many times recently. Although he always speaks in a grand and respectable manner, Bai Zhiwei doesn't believe a word of it.

Bai Zhiwei didn't want to be taken back by this playboy who never spoke the truth, and to be kept as some kind of plaything at home.

The money was borrowed, and she is determined to pay it back.

She cannot take money that is not clean.

The education she received from childhood did not allow it.

But Bai Zhiwei was truly terrified; she had nothing and couldn't fight back against anyone.

She seemed to have thought of something, her eyes welling up with tears, and her voice trembled slightly, "...So, so, Mr. Gu, could I..."

Xie Qingyu frowned, wondering what she was dawdling about. She mumbled and stammered for a long time without moving.

"Go if you are told to go."

His voice was cold and left no room for argument.

Bai Zhiwei stood there for a long time before dragging her weak body back to her room.

She started crying again while packing her luggage.

...Does it really have to be this way?

She didn't have much luggage, and she came out in about ten minutes. She didn't even bring a suitcase, just a large backpack and a tabby cat in her arms.

The black, white, and yellow tabby cat seemed a little nervous, clinging tightly to Bai Zhiwei's neck, its pupils dilated, its ears turned back, and its large tail swishing back and forth.

Xie Qingyu turned around and saw the cat, and was stunned for a moment.

The girl forced a smile. "This is my cat, which I've had since I was a child. It's over ten years old, an old cat."

When she first got Da Mi, she was still young, and her family was well-off. Later, things changed, but Da Mi remained by her side as always.

Da Mi is like family to her, and she can never bear to part with her. So even though she can live at school after she starts school, she still goes home every other day to feed Da Mi, give her water, and clean her poop.

The cat is over ten years old. No one would want it if it were given away, and it wouldn't survive if it were released. It can only be left at home to live a life without anyone to take care of it or keep it company. Bai Zhiwei felt sad just thinking about it and felt sorry for it.

But she had no choice; she had to study, work, and take care of her mother in the hospital, so she had a very difficult time.

"...Let's make this clear first, I must take Dami with me." Bai Zhiwei made her only request with a bitter expression.

She was afraid that this young master Gu might have some kind of germaphobia or dislike animals, and would ask her to throw the cat out.

After all, wealthy young men are usually very fastidious and especially dislike mixed-breed cats.

Xie Qingyu blinked, somewhat puzzled, unable to understand Bai Zhiwei's thought process.

He didn't say I couldn't bring my cat, so what's wrong with having one? Cats are so cute!

He'll find Bai Zhiwei a house later, and he won't object to her keeping eight dogs!

"Then bring it along."

Bai Zhiwei breathed a sigh of relief and followed Xie Qingyu downstairs.

The driver downstairs had been waiting for quite some time.

He saw that when President Gu went up, he was alone, but when he came down, there were two of them.

Behind him followed a pretty, plain-looking girl with a scar on her face, carrying a schoolbag and holding a cat; at first glance, she looked like she was with her family.

"You have a lot of stuff, sit in the back."

Xie Qingyu said something to Bai Zhiwei, and then got into the passenger seat.

Bai Zhiwei silently opened the back door and got in.

The driver was quite surprised, since the back seat was spacious and comfortable, and the boss usually sat in the back.

The passenger seat is usually occupied by a secretary or assistant, but surprisingly, Mr. Gu sat there, giving the back seat to the girl!

Incredible!

Mr. Gu, this is like an iron tree about to bloom!

The driver wanted to listen to what they were talking about to satisfy his gossipy soul, but unfortunately, neither of them said a word.

After getting into the car, Mr. Gu only said "Go to Longting Apartment" before closing his eyes to rest.

The girl behind her also lowered her head, hugging the cat and remaining silent.

The driver's dream of watching the drama unfold was shattered.

After an unknown amount of time, the car stopped.

The luxurious gate of the residential complex is impressive, and the burly security guards are on duty in an orderly manner.

It's clearly not a place that ordinary people can afford to live in.

Bai Zhiwei's hands and feet turned cold with nervousness.

Xie Qingyu owns too many properties; he doesn't even know how many properties he has. It was only after 2222 checked for him that he chose this place.

It's close to the hospital where Bai's mother lives, and not far from Bai Zhiwei's school. Security is also very strict, so there's no fear of being harassed again.

He led his people up the elevator and arrived at the door.

"This is a fingerprint lock. You can register your fingerprint in a moment."

"Oh...oh." Bai Zhiwei nodded blankly.

The apartment is brand new and has never been occupied. It is fully furnished and equipped with appliances, but it has been a long time since I've been there, and the floor is a bit dusty.

Fortunately, the sofa, table, and bed were all wrapped in dust bags, so they weren't difficult to clean.

The apartment has three bedrooms, two living rooms, and is over 120 square meters. It features a minimalist interior design with natural wood and off-white accents, making it very spacious and bright.

"You can stay here for now. I won't charge you rent. It's less than two kilometers from your mother's place, and the transportation is quite convenient."

"It's just about the bed sheets and duvet covers. Do you want to use your own? But we have some new ones in the room, so it's fine either way."

A tall, slender man stood in the center of the living room, his handsome face furrowed as he pondered what else he should say.

Bai Zhiwei was holding the cat, somewhat bewildered.

This was clearly an uninhabited house, and judging from the situation, the other party didn't seem to have any intention of forcing her to live with him.

“…Oh right.” Xie Qingyu saw her face, then rummaged through drawers and cabinets to find a towel, soaked it in water, and brought it over.

"Put the cat down. Sit on the sofa and put a towel on your face."

The girl obediently placed Da Mi on the sofa, sat down herself, and looked up at Xie Qingyu.

He lowered his eyes, his attention focused entirely on Bai Zhiwei's swollen and red left cheek, and gently placed a cool towel on it, his expression serious and his movements gentle.

That person is a beast! How much pain must that have caused!

Xie Qingyu was inexplicably irritable.

This person is really something, all barking and snarling at me, only to be bullied like this by others outside.

Bai Zhiwei remained silent, her eyes fixed on her nose, seemingly lost in thought.

Afterwards, Xie Qingyu remembered that there was still a cat, so he went downstairs to find a nearby pet store and bought some cat food, cat litter, and a litter box.

After all, Bai Zhiwei didn't bring much luggage, so she was definitely missing these things.

After finally settling the person in, he got Bai Zhiwei's bank card number and transferred two million yuan to her without saying a word, saying that if it wasn't enough, he could ask her for more.

This feeling of regarding money as dirt, and that vast wealth is nothing more than a string of numbers, fascinated Xie Qingyu.

The feeling is especially complex when the money is spent on worthwhile things.

All he could say was, thank goodness he had money.

"You don't need to worry about the loan sharks, I'll handle it. I'll check their company later, and give me their phone number."

After paying and getting his number, Xie Qingyu left without lingering any longer.

Liu Baizhiwei stood in the room, stunned, and didn't come back to her senses for a long time.

Young Master Gu... seems to be different from what she imagined.

She touched Da Mi's dull fur, feeling a mix of emotions.

He doesn't seem to be as bad as he thought.

Xie Qingyu had been busy all day, and it was already past six o'clock when he got back to the company.

He had intended to work in the office for a while before going home, but remembering that his sister was still weak, he asked the driver to turn the car around and go straight home.

Xie Yan at home was feeling much better at this time.

After the initial menstrual cramps subsided and the allergic rash disappeared, she was able to walk and talk normally again.

At least I don't need to hold onto the wall when I walk anymore.

Just like the evolution of apes, she can now walk upright.

She had no appetite for lunch and didn't want to eat, but the housekeeper brought the food to her door, so she ate a couple of bites.

I was a little hungry again, so I went downstairs to find something to eat.

The owners of the house haven't returned yet, and Xie Yan is acting like the lady of the house who has moved in.

Knowing that she was not feeling well, the chef cooked some vegetable porridge in the afternoon. It was sweet, soft, and warm. After drinking a small bowl of it, Xie Yan felt that she was feeling better again.

She mentally tapped her adorable younger brother, her voice incredibly gentle, "Qingyu~ Aren't you off work yet~?"

A response came quickly from the other end. Xie Qingyu shuddered, not knowing what had happened, his voice trembling, "...What happened? Am I going to die?"

Xie Yan smiled: [Get lost]

Xie Qingyu breathed a sigh of relief: "This is perfectly normal. It would have been better if this had happened sooner."

[...] Xie Yan was speechless. "Are you working overtime today? What time are you getting home?"

[Already on my way, a bit of traffic.]

【it is good】

With nothing to do, Xie Yan decided to go back to her room and lie down for a while.

Upon reaching the third floor, she paused for a moment as she passed a certain room.

This is Shen Yan's room.

The door was ajar, as if it had been left open.

He never forgets to close the door normally, so he probably forgot this morning when he left home.

Xie Yan tried to close the door, but accidentally pushed it open a crack.

Through the crack, one could vaguely see a haphazardly arranged bookshelf.

Some images suddenly flashed through her mind.

When she suddenly had menstrual cramps yesterday and ran over to knock on the door in a daze, she inadvertently caught a glimpse of Shen Yan's back.

Yesterday was so unbearable that she didn't have time to think about anything else, but now that she suddenly remembered it, she felt like something was off.

She vaguely remembered that there was a mess behind Shen Yan.

The messy items were crowded together, some in neat rows and some in small ones, not something that had been randomly thrown away; that level of organization couldn't be achieved in a short time.

But Shen Yan is usually a clean and tidy person, even his fingernails are neatly trimmed, so it feels like his room shouldn't be like this.

It shouldn't be so messy.

They followed us like bandits.

Xie Yan was torn between two conflicting thoughts. Suddenly, she felt a strong urge to check out Shen Yan's room to see what was going on...
